INTERESTING TO wORKINGMEN.

A investigation into the history of ten labor bills
listed in The Democratic Campaign Text Book
having been enacted into law by the Democratic Con-
gross has revealed interesting information.
The first is the bin extending the operation OF the
eight-hour law to work done for the government as
well work done by the government This bill
first drafted by Borah while chairman of the
Senate Committee Education and Labor.
Fifth in the list is the law establishing The Childrcns
Bureau. This bill first drafted, introduced and
pressed to passage in the Senate by Senator Borah
and the bill introduced n the Democratic House was
an exact copy OF Tho Borah bill
Sixth in tho list les the bill establishing tho Indus
trial Commission This bill was first introduced in
tho Senate by Senator Borah
Ninth in the list is the bill establishing a Depart
mont OF Labor This bill framed and introduced
10y Senator Borah and made law by the sg1r-
turo Of President TAFT few days before he retired
from Office
Going back in the list to No. Z, tho PHOSPHORUS
match or "fossy jaw" BILL found TO be classed
Democratic achievement The true history of this
bill is that it was introduced in the House by Repre-
sentative Esch. Republican, OF Wisconsin, two years
before any Democrat had apparently the need of
such legislation protect the life and health of work
ors in the match industry Later, coming into power
in the House and realizing that Representative Esch
had pushed forth a vital need It decided that no
Republican should be permitted to have his at
tached to such humanitarian piece Of legislation
Representative William Hughes, Of New Jersey, now
a Senator copied the Esch bill and It passed as
the Hughes" bill The Hughes" bill however was
such perfect copy Of the Esch bill that the copist
failed to change the old date which had appeared on
the original Esch bill.
Il will thus that Of the ten labor laws
claimed Democratic achievements, we're positively
OF Republican origin

Bench to succeed Judge Victor c.

OVER CONFIDENCE
is DANCEROUs.

From the Salisbury News.
The Democrats in the First Con
gressional District viii have to be
careful against the fatal mistake of
ovcr-confidence i'm the present Con-
grossional campaign There is no
doubt that the indications all point
to the fact that the Democrats will
have a walk-over in tha coming cleo
ton. but II is never safe to discount
the strength OF tine enemy. While
Senators Smith and Price have ap-
parently nothing to fear from their
Republican opponents it might be a
mistake for the average Democrat to
think it unnecessary for him to go
to the election and vote because
There will be enough Democrats
there anyway"
From tho affiliated vote in the
First Congressional District both
Senator Smith and Senator Price
should have the largest maioritlcs
which have been given Democratic
candidates in many years past, pro-
vided the Democrats ara sufficiently
interested to go out ami vote. If,
however, a large majority of them
take the notion that because the Re-
publicans are making a still hunt
there is no necessity for them to
bestir themselves and go to the polls
on election day, tnere might be some

n ISCLOSURE in Washington dispatches to many
~ large newspapers of the fact that President Will
son was responsible for Democratic abandonment in
Congress of the plan limit by constitutional amend
ment the tenure of the President to one term, has
been the political sensation of the week Prac-
ucally ever since the early sixties when the reelec-
ton OF President Lincoln imminent Democrats
have been agitating during Republican administrations
the proposition Of limiting the Presidential tenure to
a single term
Every time new Republican President had shown
himself popular with the people, the proposal of limit
ing Presidents to single term was revived by Demo
cratic statesmen. When Cleveland became President
the plan instantly lost its popularity but the reelection
of Grant and Mckinley following that of Lincoln whose
reelection they depored most determined them that IL
they ever had another chance end would be put to
tho possibility of any future Republican President sue
ceeding himself
There had always been feeling in the Democratic
party that il Lincoln had been permitted to
succeed himself the future of the Republican party
might have been favorable the party which
in Lincolns day opposing the union Of the States.
and which, since then has been opposing prosperity
and seeking patronage.
When Wilson elected President together
with the Democratic Congress the chance seemed to
have presented itself bill Immediately intro
duced in the last session of the Sixtysecond Con-
gress before Wilson come into Office to limit the
President to term of six years. II believed
that Wilson yet being in office, would bother
himself about any legislation, but according 10
ports of this most recent revelation he wrote
page letter to Representative A. Mitchell Palmer, di-
rectng Palmer TO go before the Democratic members
Of the House Judiciary Committee and urge that the
sngle-term legislation be dropped. This despite
a plank in tho Democratic platform inserted by viii
liam jennings Bryan at the Baltimore convention in
1912. declaring:
I'VE favor single Presidential term and TO that end
urge the adoption OF amendment 10 the Constu-
ton making tho President ineligible 10 reelection
and we pledge tho candidate Of this convention TO this
principle"
Whatever was done with the bill after that It mat
ers not because il sufces TO say that the resolution
was passed and in this session has not been re-
introduced.
