OF all that has been done in the way
OF properly preparing these wards OF
ours for true self government. For
mer President Taft in a recent article
on the Personal Aspects OF the Pres.
idency." throws out a suggestion that
President Wilson might avail himself
of. when he says:
Had l been reelected. had in my
mind to go TO the Philippines during a
vacation OF Congress. with the idea that
me presence OF the President In that
part or the United States Jurisdiction
might give to the Filipino people a sense
OF our interest in them that would CON

The common belief that the law re.
quires a President to stay within the
jurisdiction OF the United States has
been shattered three times of recent,
twice when Taft and Roosevelt visited
Panama, and the third time when Mr..
Taft dined with President Diaz on
Mexican soil. President Wilson,
therefore, need not hesitate about ask
ing permission of Congress to take a
little flyer out to the Philippines. Per.

doubtedly give him a knowledge TO
work on he does not now possess. II Is
possible to carry out the original
scheme OF giving the Filipinos self
government where they are prepared
Tor It. but It certainly would be a
criminal error to hand It over to them
in their present incompetent state.
II has barely been twenty years
when q Democratic administration was
preparing to desert the Hawaiian Is.
lands. but that disaster was happily
prevented to our gain and the greater
prosperity and happiness of the
Hawaiians. Surely. at this juncture.
It would be equally disastrous to let

ton were in a deplorable state, re-
duced almost to serfdom. Most OF the
land was owned by the aristocracy,
who ground them down and spent
the profits OF their industry in idle
ness, luxury and debauchery. Indeed,
these lords of the land held the life

RIOT, NOT REVOLUTION.

The arrest OF one of the leaders of
the Industrial Workers OF the World
on a charge OF melting his de-
luded followers to riot, and who Is
now held under $500 bail for trial.
shows more anxiety on the part OF
the New York authorities than fear.
An irresponsible character like Tan
nenbaum could no doubt infiame the
vast army OF the unemployed to per-
form some desperate acts against the
peace and comfort Of the metropolis,
and therefore IL is preferable TO have
him muzzled instead of running
amuck.
Tannenbaum's specific offense was
a speech he made to a promiscuous
gathering in the streets. advising
hem to adopt the methods OF the
French revolutionists." This is no
more frightening expression than has
been made by some Democratic a
tors In times past. notably by William
JENNINGS Bryan when he once pre-
dicted the trail OF desolation and woe
that would traverse this country in
the event OF the triumph of the Re
publican party. Other men as able.
as intelligent as the secretary OF
state under normal conditions have
prophesicd the coming OF a revolution
OF French herceness and blood owing
TO the apparent unrest of certain
classes. but they have been equally
ms foolish as this swashbuckHng ari-
tator who Is now under arrest in New
York

OHIO DEMOCRATS ON wARpA1n.

Governor Cox of Ohio has a disaf-
fected party on his hands. which
seems TO indicate he will be defeated
for a denomination. Entering upon his
duties at Columbus as one of the
o popular men in his party. he is
closing his term as one Of the best
hated By a large faction Of Demo-
Gratis.
Our Democratic neighbors in Bel
mont are the most pronounced anti.
Cox agitators. and are organizing TO
make an effective dissent to his re.
nomination. The greatest grudge they
have against him is his refusal to in
terfere in the passage of the bill ger
rymandering the Congressional dis
tricts. which made the Sixteenth

fore there had been a gamblers
chance OF ii going the other way. This
was accomplished by eliminating
