SPUR Of qzn
MOMENT
By Roy K. Moulton
A CABINET READY MADE.

CABINET READY MADE.
Oh, listen here, dear Woodrow,
You should not fume or fret
Concerning the appointment
OF your new cabinet.
OF course, they are all anxious
To do the thing for YOU
To pick out your assistants
And see the matter through.
But there's no use to worry,
We know where you can find
A cabinet that's ready made
And willing to be signed.
Just take this tip, friend Woodrow,
And you need fret no more;
Accept this bunch and take the
bunch
Down at our gru-cry store.
There's Uncle Ezra Harkins,
Who knows each nations fate;
Write him a note and get him for
Secretary of state.
Hold Peters is a fighter,
And knows what fightin's for;
You could get him, we know, for your
secretary of war
The agriculture sinecure
Should go to Angus Jones,
Who poses. as an expert, but
Has mortgaged all he owns.
The naval job should be snap
For Uncle Abner Hymes,
He knows lot about the boats,
He's crossed the lake three times.
The treasury department
Should go to Henery Swank;
He kin count money mighty fast;
He works down in our bank.
And he kin tell a counterfeit,
By gosh, or bogus bill,
And kin detect a lead ten-cent piece
When it drops in the till.
Attorney generals a cinch,
Give that to old Squire Lunk;
He's never lost a line fence suit
And knows a nunc pro tune.
Interior department?
Old Doctor Hanks conhdes
He kin tell every organ
We've got in our insides.
Those fellers are experts
That hang around the store.
They'll all take the positions,
So you need fret no more.

'ETH|CS CODE URGED

The establishment of code of ethic'

This is an era" said Mr.. Cohen,
when our best established institutions
are criticised We hear dcnunciations
of the stock exchange, the insurance
world, of lawyers. and even OF the
courts We should bear these criticisms
in mind. but We can't do co1structiH
work by tearing down What we can
do is to perfect thc system we now
have"
Mr.. Cohen said he blamed the busi-
ness men for the downfall OF lawyers
who are guilty of wrongdoinG at the
instigation of their clients. He said the
lawyer and the business men must CO.
operate. but only along the strictest
lines. He said business men should
never ask a lawyer to do anything
contrary to the ethics OF his profess

GO. P. SPLIT OVER
CONVENTION DATE
Progressive National Conference Before Democratic
Laws Have Caused Changes in Economic Situation
Standpatters Favor Waiting Until 1914.
By JUDSON C. WELLIvER.

I yield to the Progressives. make terms
with them, invite them back with tn"
assurance that the party is going TO
| travel their way in future.
The standpatters think there is going
| to be hard times after the tariff meas
ure passes. They doubt whether the
full effects will be felt so early as next
December. So they would like to walt
until May. when they think that. If
there Is going to be a panic. il will
be In full swing and the standpatters
VIII DC In shape to proclaim their vim
dlcatlon and insist on keeping control
Want Early Date.
More liberal Republicans. especially
those who believe in vigorour tariff re-
form. while not indorsing the Demo-
cratic measure. want the convention
held not later than December next, so
that the Republican party may consider
its condition without having the shadow
of depression over the country. They
want the party reorganized and made
sincerely progressive: and whether the
Democratic tariff act shall succeed or
fail. they insist that attention mus. be
concentrated on the real. persisting ls-
sue of whether the Republican party
is to be progressive or retrosresssve.
They don't want attention distracted
by reason of a temporary Industrial and
business situation.
If a million men are out OF employ
ment when that convention meets, and
If business is depressed, the standpdt-
ters will come back into control, and
1t will be the end of the Republican
party, declared one advanced Repub-
lican today. THE new tariff law will
not have had a chance by that time
to show whether IL can do any good.
but II will be doing all the harm there
is in II.
Some To Be Hurt.
Some people will be actually hurt by
it. others will be merely apprehensive
that It's going to hurt them; but both
elements will be contributing to make
business bad. That will be Just The
time for the standpatters TO get to-
gether, defy the world. the Democrats,
the Progressive party and the insur-
gent Republicans, and stick to their
control of the helm.
IF the standpatters. nerved by a de-
preston while business is adjusting it,
self to new tariff conditions, insist on
retaining complete control, then there
will be an amalgamation of the P-o-
gressive partys strength with about
one-half the men who last fall voted
for Taft. and ii will become the domi-
nant party, by whatever name 1t be
called.
IF. on the other hand. the tariff law
works reasonably well, II there is no
general depression. then the standpat-
ters, reluctant but helpless, will have
TO turn Republican control over TO the
advanced element, and there will be
a chance TO perfect the reunion of the
elements on that line

The reason for this difference between
the two wings is highly interesting and
suggestive.
Believe In Chance.

and industrial depression Will set in
with the enactment of the Democratic
tariff measure. For that matter. the
liberal wing of the party Is in SUD-
