Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1914-11-06
UP TO THE PARTY IN POWER
Democratic Legislation Responsible
for the Deficiency in country's
Revenues.

The Republican position, voiced by
Representatives Mann, Payne ana 9TH
ers, is that the deficiency in the reve-
nue. is not due to the European war,
but to the failure of the tariff Iaw to
produce income, besides which the
Democratic congress has, by extrava-
giant appropriations, involved the gov
eminent in expenses which cannot be
met except by additional taxation. It
is shown, for instance, that last Janu-
airy the falling off in customs revenu
was $780, 900. and in February the
decrease was S9,e95,0oG, with a steady
decline up to August l.. when the war
began. AS to the appropriations, the
figures show that this congress has al
ready contracted to expend $7o, 000, 600
more than the last Republican, with
5000 900 to be added by the river
and harbor bill, S25, 600, 600 asked for
Colombia, $4,000, 600 for Nicaragua and
$4,000, 600 fer creating a merchant ma
rine. The Republicans assert that if
the Democrats had practiced what
they preached IN the matter of econ
omy, or If the revenues had not been
depleted by a free trade law, the pres
emit emergency would not have arisen.
In addition to this, the administration
is criticized for refusing to take out
of the national banks the government
deposits of SIS, 000, 900, it being claimed
that it would have been better to have
taken the money out OF the banks than
orf of the pockets of the people.
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1914-11-06
Mr.. Roosevelt seeinn THINGS

Mr.. Roosevelt was in high spirits at
Indianapolis. He had come into In
diana from Illinois, and brought with
him rosy accounts of bull moosery in
the Sucker state. These being rein
forced by rosy accounts Of bull moos-
cry in the Hoosier state led him to
say:
"A Progressive victory in thesetwo
great states, which / now believe to be
politically probable, mean the death
of the two political machines, GER
tainly of the Republican gang-con-
trolled party and assuredly of ma
chine domination of the Democratic
party"
Mr.. Roosevelt insult have been
speaking for publication, and not as
an evidence of good faith. His sclev-
erness as a politician teaches him the
Importance of confidence in his pub
lie u%tterances during a campaign.
A straight bull moose victory is
not only not politically probable" in
Illinois, but all Mr.. Roosevelt expects
land with it he will be entirely salts
fed, as in the case of Maine-is "a
bull moose vote large enough to give
victory to the Democrats. He is
working for them, and this year is
one of their most cherished assets.
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1914-11-06
CAMPAIGN FOR
SICK INSURANCE
MAY SuPPLANT FUND FOR IN
DUSTRiAL ACCIDENTS-CAM-
PAlGN STARTED.
THE NEXT LOGICAL STEP
The American Association for Labor
Legislation Said To Be Behind
the Movement.

Western Newspaper Union News Service
Columbus.-A not improbable step
to be taken in Ohio will be a campaign
for so-called sickness insurance. &C
cording to an editorial in the Journal
of the Ohio State Medical association.
Now that the Ohio workmen's com
p~ensation act is operating smoothly
and is in the main an admitted sue
cess, this sickness insurance is I'M
doubtedly the next logical step, those
advocating it say. The state compen-
safes the workman when he is in
jured. Under sickness insurance, the
state would compensate him for loss
incurred through disability because of
sickness. This would, no doubt, be ap-
piled to the so-called occupational dis
eases, where the nature of the EN-
ploye's work directly stimulates the
disease which causes disability.
The American Association for Labor
Legislation is behind the new move
ment
The state board of health has almost
completed its occupational disease sur
vey, which will offer scientific data as
to the extent of these diseases in
Ohio, their causes and methods Of pre-
vention. When the employer finds that
he must compensate lis workmen for
disability caused by poor sanitary con-
ditions in his factory, he will be apt
to remedy those factory conditions, it
is predicted.
Fulton County tribune. (Wauseon, Ohio) 1883-1925, 1914-11-06
WASTING THE PUBLIC FUNDS
Democratic Administration, Despite
Pledges of Economy, Has Been
Extravaaant.

It does not escape attention that
despite it's pledges of economy the
national administration is adding
heavily to the general charges Of the
government. Nobody doubts the pres
ident's sincere wish to carry along the
administration upon a less expensive
,>asis, but nobody observes that he
takes any practical steps towards lop-
ping eff extraVagances. OF course
there is much to be said for him. He
was and still is a novice in matters of
business. Furthermore his attention
has been concentrated Oh the tariff,
currency, foreign affairs and a hundred
other ~engrossing subjects. He has as
sumed that his general counsels for
economy would be taken seriously by
department and bureau chiefs. If he
had had longer association with prac-
teal affairs he would know that it
takes more than a few neatly turned
phrases, even though they may be-
speak earnest wishes for economy, to
change the tendencies of bureau prac-
tice. Every ~bureaucrat makes due
genuflection to executive suggestion.
But when he comes to make up the es-
Inmates for his OWE particular depart
ment or bureau he screws the figures
up to the highest possible point. Sug-
gestions of economy he regards as
mere idealism-good to talk about, but
not to be taken seriously. The system
is wrong, because when it comes to
formulating estimates there is no &C
ordination Of purpose. 1t is a case of
scramble, and each little administrator
has his own motives for grssping all
that hVGan get. President Taft under
took to remedy this abuse ky introduce
ing system into the estim ates of the
executive department, but the work
was not half done when h. went out Of
office, and it has not been followed up
since then. Ultimately we will get a
system corresponding to the budget"
as it is known in European countries.
But it will take time to do 1t, and in
the meantime the present tremendous
scheme of waste will go on practically
unchecked-this in spite of promises
old and new to hold the government to
O lower basis of expense.

BOWS TO JUDGMENT OF DOG
Writer Recognizes That Individuals of
a Species Ought Thoroughly to
Know Their Kind.

In the American Magazine Will IT.
win writes a wonderful true dog story,
entitled, Togo, Mayor of Scituate."
Togo is a remarkable dog in Scituate,
Massy-so we'll known and liked that
he is called the mayor of Scituate.
Togo's power is shown in the following
passage:
1--WE perceived at last that Togo had
constituted himself committee on ad-
missions to Peggotty beach. When
ever a new dog appeared Togo took
the matter under advisement fer a
time, while he decided whether the
stranger might remain. If he ruled ac-
verseiy, he thrashed that dog and con-
tinued to thrash him until he learned
that he was not elected. ! am not say
ing but that Togo administers this Of
flee capriciously. He has refused beach
rights to individuals which seem to me
all that q dog should be, as well as to
certain surly and treacherous examples
of the species. Still Togo may be
right. The Judgment of a sapient dog
on dogs, of a woman on women-who
am l that l should d~isagree?"
