A PARTY WITH LIFE AND A HIS.
TORY.
philadelphia Public Ledger)


The old party needs to emphasize its
Fundamental theories. like a man with
a conscience healthy because honest
and active. Instead of putting on a
progressive mask (the word being used
n it's partisan, not its dictionary
sense) the republican party should
show It's own face, washed, shining and
unafraid. 1t should antagonize demo-
cratic error and bull moose faddism,
and do it with the vim and vigor it at
tackled the fallacy Of free silver in 1896.
| 1t should do that even though it lose.
| There is going to be a reaction from
the theoretical guesswork, the unsafe
policy which thinks that all the people
with their eyes shut can commit folly
In haste and repent at leisure, by re-
calling the creatures Of their own ma
king. The country demands a party
which. while not static, shall be sta
BILE; party with its face hopefully set
toward the future. but whose forward
march shall be evolutionary and not
revolutionary. The republican party,
saved. not by the men who wore its
committee badges, but by the men who
stood in their places and cast three
and one-half million votes for Mr.. Taft
in 1912, has in it the making of such a
party. That result would undoubtedly
be made certain by the retiring of some
Of the leaders and offlceholders. that
new men may give the party fresh
baptism Of efficiency Some Of the old
leaders who may have unjustly been
called bosses, can retire now with
halo, when otherwise they may have
retired under cloud.
The republican party has had Won
derful recuperative qualities. 1t has
been pronounced dead several times,
as youthful scribblers, with short
memories are now writing It's obituary.
After the election of 1890, which re-
turned but IS republicans to the lower
house Of congress, and again when the
Cleveland landslide of 1892 came, the
last nail was pronounced driven and
clinched in its coffin, but 1t survived to !
give the democracy an awful drubbng
In four successive presidential cleo
ions.
Again the party has been able in its |
lay to Guido the self-righteous pro-
sressives in its allegiance to forward
movements. In 1864. when the radicals
gathered in Cleveland to oppose Lin
'olns denomination and to forestal his

Campaign MONEY
TAKEN FROM SALARY
DECLARES WITNESS
L. L. Melius on Stand in
John Doe Inquiry-Five
Per Cent Taken for
Contributions

New York, January 5.--L. l.. Melius, a
highway contractor testified at the re-
sumption of District Attorney Charles S.
Whitman's John Doe" inquiry today
that when he was employed in the state
engineers department for three years.
part of his salary was held back, and he
assumed it was for campaign contribution
purposes. Melius took the stand at his
own request and declared he never had
voluntarily contributed to campaign
funds.
They used just to take out of our
checks" Melius said.
Five per cent of the salary was the
amount deducted he said, and that prac-
tice was continued two or three years;
after that they used to send men around
to collect"
Meius said he was unable to say where
this mercy went, but declared he thought
it went into the general campaign fund.
To the best of his recollection, he said,
the practice of deduc.ing from salaries
was stopped during the second admins
tration of Gov. Charles T.. Hughes.
Friends First
Cornelius j. Reardoa, stone and
ql.a.rry contractor testified that during
the administration of Gov. John A. Dix
he was informed when he went to AL
bany in the hope of getting new contracts
that our friends must be looked after
first" Reardon is republican.
h. ]. Doyle of Herkimer, n. Y, a pro-
sressive. who formerly was a repub-
lican, testified that he contributed $25
to the democratic state committee in 1911.
Six years before that, he said, he was
state assistant engineer, and was in
formed that he was expected to contribute
per cent of his salary. 1t was the gem
eral understanding among contractors on
state jobs, Doyle testified, that they mus.
contribute per cent. of outstanding con-
tracts.
The INQUIRY will be resumed Friday. The
grand jury investigation will be resumed
tomorrow.

The road bed torn up runs parallel to

Grated. Nashville, Chattanooga and st.

of the city officials in attacking their

view of the fact that their road was

was reserved to annul the concession

PRIZE FOR ARTICLE
AGAINST SUFFRAGE
Athens Man Offers S25 to
High School Pupils
DEFINES CONDITIONS
Boys and Gifls Under Twenty Are
Eligible to Tell Why They OPP
pose Giving Women
the Franchise
To the Editor Of The Age-Herald:

To the Editor of The Age-Herald:
The offer of Mrs. Solon Jacobs. an
nounced in your issue of yesterday, of
$50 In prizes for the three best pa
pers on equal suffrage prompts me TO
offer s25 for the best single paper
against equal suffrage.
With all due respect to the many
excellent persons advocating woman s
suffrage, l believe constitutional
amendments and legislation to this end
would be fraught with issues sub
versive of good government, good NOR
ais and family peace; and | think that
the boys and girls of the state should
have some stimulus to inquire into
and express themselves upon the argu-
ments against comforting suffrage
upon women.
/ will accordingly, therefore give s25
for the paper containing the best argu-
ments most forcefully expressed
against woman suffrage.
The following conditions are to gov
ern:
l. Those eligible to contest shah be
pupils between the ages of Is and 20
in the high schools of Alabama
?. No paper shall exceed 1000 words
3. Information and suggestions may
be obtained from any source, but the
paper must be the original work of the
contestant.
A, The principal of each high school
in which there are pupils competing
shall select the best paper submitted
by any pupil of that school and for
ward the same to DR. James A. Dun
can of Decatur. who will decide which
of the papers thus submitted is the
best. I have not communicated with
DR.. Duncan, but hope that he will ac-
cept the task and consent to serve.
He is, by high character, fine scholar
ship and excellent judgment, ideally
qualified.
.. All papers must be in the hands
Of Dr. Duncan by April 1, 1914
6. No paper shall contain the name
of its author, but shall be numbered
I. AT the time that the papers are
forwarded by the principals of the sew
eral schools to DR.. Duncan, the prin-
cipals at the same time shall send to
The Age Herald the number of the
paper forwarded by him and the name
and address of the author of such pa
per.
DIR. Duncan will communicate to The
Age-Herald the number of the paper
which he decides to be best and The
Age-Herald will publish the name of
the winner.
| should be glad to make other than
the pupils of the high schools of the
state eligible, but can think of no
plan which might not result in over
whelming with many papers the com
mittee who should be selected to rem
der the final decision
The plan outlined limits the papers
to be forwarded to one from each higa
school in the state. which are about
40 in number. L believe. and should
pupils from each of these schools con-
test, the number of papers to be fiual-
ly examined Will be within reasonable
bounds.
1t also occurs to me that the prin-
cipals of these schools might devise
some plan by which the work of the
contestants for the prize should con-
stitute part of their school work.
Very truly yours,

Double Primary Favored
AS to double primary for the gov

Nor a majority primary for the nom
ination of governor.
In favor of a majority primary for
governor one of the principal argu-
ments advanced is that with five can
didates in the race for governor il
would be possible. on the basis of a
plurality primary, for one man to re-
ceive>the nomination should he receive
hardly more than $4,000 votes. 1t is
not believed that more than $4,000
votes will be cast in the primary. hence
there is much doubt that the vote in
a plurality primary would reflect the
true sentiment of the democrats Of
Alabama. Because of this fact ma
jority primary will be urged and there
is every reason for believing that this
plan will be adopted. The majority
method will obtain only for the NOM
ination of n candidate for governor;
for other state offices the plualiiy
plan will prevail.
Many of the committeeman are eX-
pected to arrive in Montgomery tomor-
row. The meeting will probably be
held at the auditorium of the EX-
change. hotel, and there is every in
dication that there will be a full at

Montgomery January 5.-CSpecial)
Sentiment is crystallizing in favor of
two important actions by the state
democratic executive committee when
IL meets here next Wednesday. The
first is that a method be provided fof
the nomination of United States sem
ator for the short term, and the second
Is that a double primary be called for
the selection of a nominee for COVER
nor
Chairman Tyler Goodwin of the eX-
ecutive committee is one of the prin
cipal exponents of the proposition to
nominate a senator for the short term.
He believes that the democrats of Ala
lama should have the right to select
their senator and. moreover, that even
we're the governors appointee seated,
he would only hold his term until the
next legislative session. The state
chairman further believes that the
committee will be of the same opinion.
GOodwyn's Statement
In a statement to the Montgomery
Herald correspondent Chairman
Goodwin said: My reason for thinking
the committee should provide for the
nomination of a United States senator
for the short term is based on two
grounds. The first is that the demo-
Gratis of Alabama are entitled to select
their senator. The second is that, even
assuming the Senate should seat Mr..
Glass, his term would last only till
the meeting of the legislature, either
in special session or in regular session.
in January, 915 The Legislature would
have to elect and a nominee should be
provided for it as has been done for
many years past. If Mr.. Glass is not
ly be held A nominee should be pro-
vided for such election without neces-
stating a special primary for that pur
pose alone.
81 do not think the committee should
do anything to hurt Mr.. Glass in his
fight for the seat, and l think the
resolution should be drawn with that
end in view, but l cannot gain my
consent to the proposition that the
democrats of Alabama are not entitled
to vote upon the question"
According 10 Chairman Goodwin
there is little doubt that the commit
tee will provide for the nomination
of a senator for the short term prin
cipally because there has been va
cancy for more than six months and
because the voters of the state have h
right to vote upon the question. He
