al ambition and private animosity be-
fore the will of the people and public
good.
How can we join these men, the net
result of whose stand is to give aid and
comfort to the worst elements in our
public life9 Clearly it is impossible.
If any progressive leader were to try
it, not a corporal s guard of the try
hearted men and women who make up
the progressive party would follow h i'm.
But even it we could join them we
could not do so without joining also
the other leaders of the party to VIII ich
they acknowledge allegiance. And
what party it would be to join! Half
the men in the republican boat are fac
ing the stern and pulling one way, while
the other half are facing the bow and
pulling the other way. Each half is
busily engaged not only in pulling
against the other half, but in abusing it
roundly, and calling public attention to
the bad feeling inside the boat.
The regular republicans, with no hope
but in hard times and no issue but i'm
aginary soup kitchens, denounce the
doctrines of the progressive republieaus
and declare by the mouth of Mr.. Taft
that the whole duty of republicanisln is
to prevent the enactment of these dan
Fgerous heresies into law.
The progressive republicans, on the
other hand, exhaust themselves in abuse
of their regular leaders and proclaim
their hatred Of the policies and practic-
es for which these leaders stand. But
that is where they stop. They are al
together lacking the courage and in
dependence to break the chains of habit
and to vote for principles instead of for
party name. 1t is melancholy spectu-
Gle.
The result of it all is evident and
undeniable. The republicans boat is
out of the race even befort the race is
well begun.
Emerson it was who said: "Hit h
your wagon to a star" 1t is good ad.
vice. The progressive republicans, on
the contrary, are inviting us to hitch
our wagon to dead horse. Such an in.
vitation is an insult to our intelligence
and reflection upon our loyalty to a
great cause. As for me, am through
with the republican party for good and
all.
The republican party is done. VIZ
lprogressives have just begun to fight.

Hadley was the Roosevelt floor lead

La Toilette is a living example and
warning of the inward corroding power
of hate. Disappointed in 1912 in his
ambition to be the progressive stand
ard bearer by the general public con-
clusion that he was not the man, La
Toilette concentrated the bitterness of
his regret upon the man to whom the
call of the people did come and sacri-
feed every consideration of principle
and fair dealing to his desire to in
iure Roosevelt. La Toilette is a poor
loser. 1t was La Toilette who threw
an convention against MeGovern of
Wisconsin for temporary chairman, and
so gave the control of the convention to
Root, Penrose, Crane and Barnes. La
Toilette was not large enough to serve
the progressive cause where he could
it best when it appeared that he could
not have the place upon which he had
set his heart. IF he had been large
enough he would be today among the
first citizens of the republic. Instead
of that he is the bitter and broken as
sociate of Root, Smoot and Penrose, and
the other reactionary republicans whose
cause he hates, but yet whose cause he
helped when it needed help the most.

TO THE HOUSEWIFE.

Madam, if your husband is like most
men he expects you to look otter the
health of yourself and children. Coughs
and colds are the most common of the
minor ailments and are most likely to
lead to serious diseases. A child is
much more likely to contract diphtheria
or scarlet fever when he has cold.
If you will enquire into the merits
of the various remedies that are re-
commended for coughs and colds, you
will find that Chamberlain g Cough
Remedy stands high in the estimation
of people who use it. It is prompt and
effectual, pleasant and safe to take,
which are qualities especially to be
desired when a medicine is intended for
children. For sale by all dealers.

stronger when Austrian diplomacy
prevented Servia from acquiring an
Adriatic seaport after the Balkan
war.
The Serbs once dominated the
whole of the Balkan peninsula. This
was in the fourteenth century. when
Servia was among the leading nations
of Europe in civilization. Then came
the invasion of the Turks. For 500
years the Serbs have dreamed of VEN
geance and their time came two years
ago when they joined in the defeat of
Turkey at Kumanovo. Servia, in be-
ing denied Albania, felt that Austria
robbed her of the fruits of her ven-
geance against Turkey. Ethnologi-
cally, the people of Servia, Bosnia,
Herzegovina, Montenegro, Dalmatia
and certain sections of the South Of
Hungary are the same and it has long
been a dream Of the Servians to unite
them as one nation. That is what
the Pan-Servian movement is and
that is what led to the ultimatum
from Austria to Servia.
What Brought on Crisis.
The issue was brought to a crisis
by the demands of Austria that Ser
via apologize for the assassination of
Franz Ferdinand, the Austrian crown
prince, by a Servian in Bosnia, dis
claimer of sympathy for the assassin
and pledge of future good conduct
The demands of Austria were so ex-
travagant and presented in such a
manner that no self-respecting nation
could comply with them. Austria's
demands are comprehensive only on
the theory that war was desired.

versy through it's demand that Aus

WILSON AVERTS sir sE
President Intervencs and Railroad
Managers Accept Mediation.

As the result of the intervention OF
President Wilson, who personally In
terviewed and discussed the situation
with the representatives OF the dis
putting parties. managers Of the West
ern railways have accepted arbitra-
ton Of the wage dispute with their
|enginemen and firemen, and the
threatened strike Of 5000 employees
on the roads west Of Chicago has been
averted for the present at least.
Early in the week the railroad
managers advised the president they
would accept the plan proposed by
the federal board of mediation, which
already had been passed ON favorab-
ly by the representatives of the en-
ginemen and firemen. The plan pro-
vides that the question of wages
shall be arbitrated under the New
lands act and that rules and regula-
tions enforced prior to October, 1918,
shall be restored.
+ Immediately after the call Of the
railroad managers the federal board
of mediation was notified Of the ia
vorable outcome. Friday of this
week had been set by the enginemen
as the date when the strike would be
called, after all previous negotiations
had failed.

tria extend the time for Servia's re-
ply. Germany became involved by
protesting against the mobilization
of Russian forces ON the Servian
frontier.
Triple Alliance Must Join.
The triple alliance. composed of
Austria, Germany and Italy, must
eventually throw their forces togeth-
er in case of general war. Italy is
holding back but Germany and Aus
tria we're apparently ready for war
and wanted it.
The triple entente, composed of
Russia, France and Great Britain.
will of necessity become triple al
lance in case of general conflict.
France is not anxious for war, des-
pite the clamor of some classes Of her
citizens and Great Britain has much
less at stake than she had in MOrOc-
co, when the triple entente was most
active in it's cooperative effort. But
it is generally admitted that France
is under agreement to support Russia
and Great Britain is bound to France
and may be brought into the conflict.
II Germany and Austria make COM
mon cause against Russia-which,
rather than Servia, is the real foe of
Austria-it is hard to see how either
Great Britain or France can stand
aloof.
Still Another Complication.
Then there is another complica-
ton. In the Balkan peninsula,
Greece, no doubt, would join Servia,
its ally of the second Balkan war,
Bulgaria, seeking revenge for its de-
feats, would turn against Servia,
while Roumania. would oppose any
move on the part of Bulgaria.
According to the latest available
statistics the triple alliance could
muster S,6O3,150 troops and the
triple entente S,972.615. The navies
of the triple alliance have total of
745 fighting vessels of all grades,
while the triple entente has 1870.
This, then, is the war game that is
being played. What will happen to
the map of Europe, if the struggle as
sumes the proportions now apparent
and is carried out to the end, no one
can tell.

RAISES FREIGHT RATES
Interstate Commerce Commission
Gives Long-Awaited Decision.

The long-awaited freight rate
ruling by the interstate commerce
commission applied for by the east
ern railroads came last Saturday
when, in divided opinion, the COM
mission handed down a decision
highly favorable to the railroads,
granting the per cent increase ask
ed on all classes and most commodi-
ty rates to roads in the Eastern
official classification territory, east
of the Mississippi and north of the
Ohio river, as far east as parts of
Western New York and Pennsyl-
vania.
1t is estimated the roads in Ohio,
Illinois, Indiana. Michigan and other
midwest states will benefit to the
extent of from $15.OOO,0O to $780,
O0O,G annually in revenues.
Trunk lines in the East and New
England states are denied rate in
creases.
The commission declared the rail-
roads in need of more revenue and
granted full per cent advances
in central freight association terri
tory on every request, except coal,
iron ores or other heavy materials.
The commission also showed the rail-
roads how they could increase their
revenues by more economic and eff
cient management and by the elimi-
nation of free service. 1t suggested
the total adjustment of the free pass
system with the declaration that this
caused an annual loss of $18,000,o0O
to the railroads.
1t is expected that the decision will
react most favorably on general bust
ness conditions and that the railroads
will again enter the markets for ma
terials.
