THE FRRING BROTHERs.

II seems that the south Bend Trib-
une and Judge Warner are disposed %
let the erring progressive brother re-
turn TO the fold. Tn a spirit OF eX-
cessive charity, hCstlltles are to be
suspended and the past forgotten The
presence of Noah Lehman and few
oruer professional job-hOlders prompts
the announcement that the amalga-
nation is now complete Noah is de-
picted, not as the Moses to lead the
erstwhile progressives into the land
OF promise but as the rat which heads
an exodus from a sinking ship.
But the progressive movement. To-
cally was broader than Noah Lehman.
The followers of Roosevelt numbered
"a great many men who left the repub-
lican party on questions of principle.
Not all were mere politicians The
great body OF them do not aspire to
office holding at all. Some have the
Lehman habit
Nov this great body of men who
wrecked the Joe CannOn-Jim Watson
Organization did SO because they be-
iieved chat special interests were so
strongly entrenched in that organiza-
ton that the common people had no
friend in court. The progressive party
aided by indiI ection in the election Of
President Wilson They have gener-
ally approved the program of legisla-
ton developed by the president
Members Of that party have aided in
the accomplishment of Wilson
achievements.
The republican party has stood pat.
The special interests affected by the
Wilson program have naturally shown
their disapTrovaI The regular repub-
lican papers have given lavishly of
their space in exploiting anything det-
rimental to the presidents efforts.
If the sincere progressive feels that
Wilson democracy has preempted the
field OF progressive policies and OBJ
serves the regular republican party
praying for a return Of Cannonism
what form of mental gymnastics must
re practice in returning 10 the G. q.

Miller's vision--he might again be
able to recognize many ne has been
Lnable to see since the Warsaw con-
venuon. But to the man of real pro-
gressive convictions what can Herbie
Warner or Jim WatsOn's protege Mar
tin offer? Then why again should the
few urge the many to reform? The
mOosers are greatly in the majority.
In prestige, the prOgressives with the
city administration back Of them, have
decided advantage. Is the splendid
organization built up around Senator
Beveridge to pass out in favor OF
Archie Graham's regulars?

IINCOLN,S BIRTHDAY.

Today we honor the memory Of
Abraham Lincoln. Whether in for
NAL ceremonial or in the secret cham
bers OF our hearts we as American cit
liens reverently speak the name of
the man born this DAY who guided the
destinies of the nation safely through
its most bitter and exhausting trial.
In Abraham Lincoln was embodied
the purest type of the American cit
izen. In his character as a man and
in his service To his country he is fit
10 stand beside that leader Of the first
Americans who is tenderly regarded as
the father OF his country
The story Of Abraham Lincoln's life
is one of the most interesting and sig
nificant chapters in the history OF the
/ United States. II embodies those ele-
ments OF citizenship. manhood and pa
tri0tism in the highest degree

Truth and SOberness on Railroad
Problem.

Sen. LaFOllette appears TO distrust
and repudiate any measure of regu-
lation which the progressive railroad
managers indOrse. Nevertheless, the
average forward looking citizen will
welcome such refreshing observations
as those of Alfred H. Smith, head OF
the New York Central system.
Mr.. Smith accepts as natural and
proper public supervision Of railroad
security issues. In such bodies As the
commerce commission the people. he
says, have found a means of searching
out the facts in order TO do justice
TO all. The problem To him Is sim
pie. There is need OF a sound basis
for rate-making: there is need OF con-
fidence in railroad Investments; there
is need Of honesty and efficiency III
railroad finance and railroad man
agement. Proposed legislation Is
beneficial 10 railroads instead OF
harmful, and there is at bottom ne
conflict OF interest between railroads
and the public.
These are indeed words OF sober
ness and truth. The extremists or
either side who demand an impossible
standpatiSm or an equally impossible
radicalism might take off a quarter
OF an hour for a little quiet reelection

Mr.. Smiths posltiOn.-Chicago Rec

SOUTH BEND. INDIANA FEBRUARY ~. 1911

The destruction Of San Francisco is
Of too recent occurrence TO have lost
its impression. Precedents behind that
are Of rare occurrence in this coun-
try but abundant elsewhere. The
story Of Atlantis is most imposing "a
continent engulfed. but Lisbon. Carac-
a., Martinique are among the world 5
seismic horrors which illustrate the
uncertainty of terrestrial footing.
Fortunately none of our great cities
is located near a volcano. Those
eruptible mountains we have are re-
mOtely located. The terrors Of sub
terranean disturbances are confined TO
falling walls, fire and tidal waves, but
these are sufficiently frightful 10 cause
US 10 tremble at the thought and to
inquire if any precautions have been
taken against this kind Of calamity.
The records of the San Francisco
shocks show that the modern building
Of reinforced concrete, whether so in
tended or not, is wei; calculated TO
resist seismic forces better than the
heavy stone structures r. lied upon by
the ancients. The elasticity of the
modern building is its safety. To use
a well-wOrn phrase it stOOps to con-
quer. it yields to resist
But it is in the nature Of man to
take chances. He is born to il and
learns to match his intelligence against
the possible. And it is astonishing
how frequently he avoids calamity and
converts the causes to his own use.

WHAT THE PAPERS SAY

experience teaches him how fresh
men should be handled. If we had
more statesmen in congress there
would be q more intelligent discussion
of public questions and the argument
wouldn't consist Of leave TO print
speeches" for the Congressional Rec
ord.
In the congressional discussion a
few men have measured up To true
craftsmanship. In the select list there
is none who appears to better advan-
tage than Rep. Mann, the republican
leader. Mr.. Mann has proved q mas
ter hand on more than one occasion.
The part he took in the argument
over the immigration question. when
western representatives sought 20 slap
Japan, was truly statesmanlike. At a
critical period in the demand, when
the United States might have been
committed to a warlike policy, Mr..
Mann said:
Il am not proud of the present
state department But we are bound
to rely in conducting our relations
with foreign countries, at least for a
time, upon the state department
When it fails to remove difficulties
through diplomacy there is time
enough then for specific legislation by

war with Japan. This is not the
time TO play politics at the expense
of the democrats. We owe allegiance
to our country above our party.

senses and there was no hostile ac-
