"CUss THE EDITOR
By wing Dinger

1 went out to the editor,
This morning, and I said,
Here is the best Wing Dinger
I think you've ever read.
The way at once his nose went up
You'd thought he held a skunk
Instead of some well written verse.
He said, Gee, this Is punk"
ct never can let this go through,
1t is the worst I've seen;
You've gotten by with some, know,
That never should have been.
But IL you don't write better stuff
You must get off the staff"
And then crooked my elbow and
Way UP my sleeve l laughed.
For I should worry at those words.
Which he to me did say,
Because for writing all this rot
don't get any pay.
But he's the boss, and what ne SAYS
Is Anal with the News
That poem. however. was peach.
Regardless 6t his views.

TUESDAY EVENING,

Jennings BIZ "A a speech before
the Legislature OF Pennsylvania in the
session of 1913, declared with en-
phasis:
A man who violates a party
platform is criminal. worse than
the man who embezzles money
President Wilson and his Secretary
of State must settle this little differ
ence between them.
Americans of all parties are Begin
ming to wonder what move the Presi-
dent will next make in the interest of
Great Britain or some other foreign
power at the expense of the people of
this country.
AS was certain to be the case, the
Democratic leaders are becoming rest
i've, and Representative Kitchin, of
North Carolina, second in command
of the Democracy in the House at
Washington and its prospective leader
in the event of Mr.. Underwood going
to the Senate, has called attention
W thS law tidt WlCIl til0
Canal bill was acted upon in the Sem
ate the exemption clause was adopted
by vote of A to Ii. Every Demo-
crat present voted for it and "it was
almost universally approved by the
people" Continuing, Mr..
Kitchin said:
The three parties. Democratic.
Progressive and Republican. and
the three candidates for the Presi-
dency-Wilson, Taft and Roose-
yelt, expressly approved and en-
dorsed during the campaign. of
1912 the exemption provision which
we are now asked to repeal.
Mr.. Kitchin quoted various authori-
ties who had held that the exemption
clause is not violative OF treaty obli-
cations and said:
How can any one who has given
any study and thought to the
question be bold enough to say that
the exemption act is in violation of
the treaty and that It imperils our
national honor not to repeal it?
Commenting on the plank in the
Baltimore platform approving the e&-
emption clause, Mr.. Kitchin said:
The concluding paragraph of the
platform speaks my views, Our
pledges are made to be kept when
in office, as well as relied upon
during the campaign"
While the North Carolina member
doesn't make the charge that the Ad-
is serving the interests
of the transcontinental railways, he
declares that these railways are chiefly
interested in having tolls levied on
American coastwise vessels.

A YOWADAYS the Democratic news
M papers of a certain class and
the campaign orators of the
same class persistently refer to
the great Republican party as "the
gang" These same newspapers and
orators never see anything wrong in
the party or faction with which they
happen to be identified. No matter
what is done, 1t is always right, while
the Republicans are everlastingly and
hopelessly depraved, insincere, dis
loyal and everything that is mean and
despicable.
This sort of abuse has continued so
Democrats of the decent sort are pro-
testing against this unfair attitude on
the ground that such a course is GER
tain to ALLEVIATE thousands of voters
who might otherwise favor Democratic
candidates. Nor is this abuse confined
o Republicans; it is bestowed in like
measure upon all Democrats who hap
pen to differ from the holier-than-
thou upstarts who have recently taken
possession of the Democratic organi-
zation in Pennsylvania and through
out the country.
AS result of this abuse great null
titudes of Democrats are aligned
against those in temporary power and
the conflict in this State and else
where has never been so bitter as at
the present time. Men who place
themselves upon pedestals of right
eousness and adorn themselves with
halos while denouncing and misrep-
resenting good men of their own party
and other parties because of differ
ences as to policy and party manage
ment are bound TO feel before the end
of the campaign the resentment of
courageous and independent voters
who discern the ambitions and selfish
ness back of this TRADE of vilification.
Even DIR. Martin G. Brumbaugh, a
distinguished citizen of Pennsylvania.
who has been urged to become a can
didate for Governor on the Republf-
can ticket is now pilloried by this same
element as a puppet in the hands of
''the gang" They admit that he is
an able. conscientious, honorable
man, but pretend that in the event
os his election, he will not be free of
influences opposed to the public well
fare. 1t matters not what he says, as
in the minds of his antagonists his
splendid record does not count.
Suspicion and distrust and assumed
virtue characterize all the fulminations
OF the little fellows who are now
strutting about the State telling the
people what great men they are and
how the interests of the people will be
safe IN their hands.
But the pendulum is swinging back
toward sanity and the day of the
demagogue in high places is about to
go, out i'll darkness. It's a wonder
that it has lasted so long.

offense to barter political pa
tronage for the benefit of parti-
san candidates. but under the new
political standards now being pro-
mulgated in Pennsylvania by a fac
tion of the Democratic party, it is
quite the proper thing to dangle po-
litical offices In the sight of those
whose support is needed for the White
House candidates in Pennsylvania.
1t is bad enough that ordinary jobs
should be utilized in this way, but it is
Infinitely worse when judicial appoint
ments are postponed with u view to
aiding the favorites of the admins
tration at Washington. 1t is common
talk now that two Federal judgeships
in Pennsylvania are being used to
hold in line the aspirants for these
places and other friends for the
Palmer r-McCormick ticket.
President Wilson has declared over
and over again that he would never
countenance this sort of thing, but he
also announced that he was in favor of
exempting coastwise vessels of the
United States from the Panama Canal
tolls.
Surely the people. are going to get
awake, and when they do there must
be an accounting on the part Of those
who have exploited public office for
the benefit of an administration which
is being run for the glory of theorist
whose attitude on practical qusetions
is becoming a menace to the prosperity
of the United States.

WILSON'S CHANGE OF FRONT

RESIDENT WILSON has for
- gotten all about the Baltimore
i platform in his anxiety to Llease
Great Britain. His position with
reference to the Panama Canal tolls
Is giving his partisan supporters more
trouble than anything that has trans
pired since he entered the -vhite
House.
In a speech at Washington Park in
New Jersey last August he declared:
One of the great objects in cut
ting the great ditch across the
isthmus Of Panama is to allow
to ship to the Pacific by way of the
Atlantic ports, to allow all the
= farmers on what l may, standing
here, call this part of the continent
to iinds an outlet at ports of the
gulf or the ports of the Atlantic
seaboard, and then have coastwise
steamers carry their products
down around through the canal and
UP the Pacific coast or down the
coast of South America.
Now, at present, there are no
ships to do that, and one of the bills
pending, passed, I believe. yester-
day by the Senate as it had passed
the House. PROVIDES FOR FREE

kind of competition. We want

land carriage, so as 10 be perfectly
sure that you are going to get bet

would across the continent.
