FUTILITY OF THE CAUCUS
(New York World.)


If the Democrats of the United
States Senate are not bound by plat
forms and pledges, no action by eau
Gus can commit them.
For almost a generation they have
been promising to take the greed and
graft out of the tariff. On that issue
they have carried three Presidential
elections, elected a majority of the
House of representatives seven times
and majority OF the Senate twice
1t has never been supposed that any
tax bill that could be drawn would b.
precisely to the taste of everybody No
well-informed person can have mag
ined that the party's will could by any
possibility be made effective without
arousing local alarms and protests on
the part of the interests affected.
Experience has shown that the peo-
pies burdens cannot be lightened I'M
less Democrats cooperate Loyalty. /;
was by a coalition on the part of SELF
seekers, by log-rolling trading and
dickering of every description that
these unmerciful exactions were male
in the first place. If those who have
been commissioned to put an end to
them cannot work in harmony, hope c.
reform may as we'll be abandoned.
Most Democratic Senators do not
need caucus support. Some honest
men among them resent it. Those
whose faithfulness it is thought may
be strengthened by it are not to De
depended upon. Men who will not obey
the people will not heed a caucus Men
whose word is not good at home are
not likely to keep faith in Washing
ton. The right course has therefore
been taken A binding resolution gives
way to one which presses upon all
democratic senators the duty of giving
undivided support to the bill.
The less we hear about the caucus
and the more that is said about per-
sonal and party honor the better it
will be for all concerned

THE PULSE OF THE FALL TRADE

Cotton, the great staple, which is the
pulse of the fall trade here and in
many other counties in the state, viii
be coming in fast here within a fev
weeks. Though the first bale and Il
number of successors to the first ba,a
have already been harvested, tn
season is hardly under way yet. Ia
a short time, however cotton will be
coming in rapidly.
The gins have been ready for the
cotton, the pickers are getting busy
in the white-fecked fields, and plan
tation life is entering one of the most
pleasing phases of the entire years
round. All of which serves to pm
new life into trade. 1t sets the blood
Itinglng fast once more and gives the
circulation and animation of renewed
activity.
When the busy hum of the gins AMI
cotton seed oil mills gets under way
once more in earnest, the fall trade
season will be on with a vim. Nc
where is the vitality and energy Ct
the cotton harvest reflected more WV
idly than in the throngs that line the
streets on Saturdays and even
throughout the week 1t is time TO-.
the Americus merchants to be really
to gain their share of the heavy trad
that will be characteristic of the
season here. according to those who
should know.
With the good cotton crop that pre-
walls in Sumter county, the fall trade
here should be exceptionally good.
The few unfavorable symptoms OIL
summer trade will be forgotten when
the fall season opens with the brisk
est trade that has been known here
in many years. The wise merchants
are ready for the season, and they are
advertising their wares in the Times
Recorder.

A PLEASING REACTION

In the restoration by the house Of
the appropriation sliced off by the
Senate committee and restored by the
House committee as soon as the tax
equalization bill was passed, there
comes almost Immediately after the
passage of the tax reform measure d
pleasing reaction in favor of the good
that it is felt this measure will do.
Speaking of the Houses action ali
exchange says:
The House was quick after the pas
sage of the tax reform bill to restore
to the appropriations bill the $2S000l
that was cut out Of it by the Senate.
There is no reason why the Senate
should object. In fact, it was intimat-
ed by senators that the appropriations
bill as originally framed by the House
should stand provided the House &C
cepted the tax reform measure.
The tax reform bill, it is believed,
will provide sufficient revenue to cover
the appropriations as made by the
House If it will not, and a great deal
more. tax reform legislation will be
practically useless.
The evidence is ample that a great
deal of property has been escaping-taX-
alton and property generally, in
great majority of the counties, if not
all of them. has been valued for taxir1
purposes far below it's market value
This has been the case in some couA'
ties to a far greater extent than IN
others.
The equalization process may have
disturbing effect in the beginning, but
its fairness will soon be recognized ant
there cannot be much kicking against
what is just and fair In fact most mer
.
are quick to submit to what is right
With the coming in of the equalization
system there will be going out of the
passing the hat" system. The chang
will be good for all interests, and es
pecially the interests of the state.

A REPUBLICANS POLITICIANS ES.
. INNATE OF PRESIDENT WILSON
Baltimore Sum-

Job Hedges who is on tour of the
Continent in an effort to forget the
fatigue of a busy winter following his
campaign last fall, was in Paris last
week. When asked about the Mexican
question and what he thought of the
attitude of the Washington govern
ment he replied:
Rest assured that nothing will hap
pen except what the President wishes.
Patry politics is entirely controlled by
him. His domination is supreme. Thus
is all the more remarkable in American
history because it is exclusively an in
tellectual situation and a highly novels
one
LAS a student of politics l am deeply
interested in the effect of this mental
dominion upon the people. When Pres
ident Wilson wrote to Congress and de
livered that message of his in person
he not only revived desirable prece-
dent, but demonstrated at once his
leadership over his party. He has made
the Democratic party a positive party,
although it has alays been a party of
negation and criticism. Mr.. Wilson has
made it a party of affirmation ana
concrete acts. While | do not agree
with his policies, am compelled to aG-
mire his ability to make Democrats in
to a cohesive force.
NO political dominance was ever
achieved at so little expense. He is
committed to nothing. He became
President ithout subscribing to 4
single specific proposition other than
that virtue is better than vice; that
the Government should be on behalf of
all the people, without especial privi:-
eye. Who would dare to oppose him
by championing vice?
Il think President Wilson is the most
adroit and powerful politician that
has ever been in the White House.
do not recall President who was his
Superior as political rhetorial. 1t is
just as great a phrasemaker as Lin
coin, except he touches no chords Of
sentiment or deep emotions.
Although unquestionably l am q
Republican, l would rather see Presi-
dent Wilson succeed than fall. He i
undoubtedly an honest man and he will
be subjected to no money pressure.

PROGRESS IN L0NG-DISTANCE
FLYING
Boston Herald.)

No airship has yet been made which
can fly, long distances every day and
stand the strain. Therefore those who
are interested in the progress Of ava
ton are surprised at the success Of
the French airman, Marcel Brindejonc
des Boulinais, in flying from Paris to
st. Petersburg by way of Berlin AMI
back to Paris, across the Baltic Sea
and south over to Sweden, in % days.
The distance he covered is abc1t 800
miles, or about 14O miles day. But
he was in the air only eight days. The
Ssst of the time he was recovering from
the fatigue of flying or was repairing
his aeroplane, just as the motor-car
drivers used to do in the early days Of
the business.
Des Moulinais' achievement, how
ever, indicates that they are making
progress in the conquest of the air He
flew on the first day S75 miles from
Paris to Warsaw, the longest cross
country fight on record in single
day And he few across the Baltic
from Reval to Sweden, a distance Of
2J5 miles, which is the longest over
water fight to date. And when he ar
rived in Paris on Wednesday afternoon
he had so far surpassed the. achieve
ment of Andreadi last year that
record is no longer worth considering
Il took Andreadi % days to fly 1870
miles from Sebastooi to st. Peters
burg, but as already noted, Des Mou'-
inais flew 3,10O miles in % days.
