IT'S WORK WELL DONE
Republican National Committee
to Be CompIimented.
Anieable Understanding Reached
Means Much for the Future
Democratic Administration A.
ready Has lost Confidence.

There will be no special national
convention of the Republican party
next spring.
Southern representation will be re.
stricted In the regular national conven-
ton of 1916, subject to ratification by
two-thirds of the states which elected
Taft electors in 1908.
All state primary laws will be rec
ognized and all delegates who had GER
tifcates from state canvassing boards
will be put upon the temporary roll
of the.1916 convention.
Such are the main results OF the
meeting of the Republican national
committee In Washington.
There was no cut and dried pro
gram. Everything was thrashed out,
beginning with the question OF the
power of the national committee to
make the proposed changes as against
the proposition to call a special con-
vention. The convention plan lost by
a vote of 80 states to IA, and then the
resolution to make the change by &C
ton of the committee was carried by
a viva voce vote that was practically
unanimous.
AS an example of the thoroughness
Of the thrashing-out process it may
be mentioned that Senator Borah OF
Idaho fought the convention plan and
former Governor Hadley of Missouri
argued in its favor. Both are consid-
cred in some quarters to be presiden-
tial possibilities. Senator Cummins of
Iowa, also a presidential hopeful. was
admitted to the conference and spoke
for the convention. Representative
Woods of Iowa, chairman Of the Re-
publican congressional committee, was
also invited to take part in the ma
tional committees meeting.
1t seems certain that the next Re-
publican platform is now being made
by Democratic administration which
has already lost public confidence,
and which has already furnished proof
of the infinite capacity Of the Demo
cratic party for making mistakes,
Senator Smoot of Utah evoked ap-
plause when he said that when the
question was asked as to what was
the matter with smokelees chimneys
on every hand the answer should be
placarded on the closed factory doors:
"Wilson-that's ALL"
Anyway, be these things as they
may, the national Republican commit
tee is evidently able to work in har-
mony and has apparently decided i'm
portant questions without ructions of
any kind. This is certainly a signifi-
cant condition of affairs and would
seem largely to justify the optimistic
prophecies of reunited ranks and vic
tories in 1914 and 1916 by the leaders
In attendance.

Turned From Prosperity's Path.

1t matters not in what direction
one turns, the same mournful sym
bols of letting up of prosperity are
observable. Every true American
could wish that the Democrats might
have the success they have claimed
for their policies, and the reaction
might be avoided. Nothing could be
more deplorable than the setting
down of the gloom of hard times upon
an era that has been redolent with
prosperity despite the manifest de
fects that have characterized these
times.
