The Result in Maine.

Although the Progressive party in Maine
showed decrease of over fifty per cent in
strength at the election held in that state this
over the vote cast for Roosevelt in 1912, and
there were large gains in the Republican VOTE
the New York American, powerful independent
Democratic organ, views the election as tri-
umph for the Progressive party and good govern
ment.
There are invaluable lessons to be derived
from the Maine results by both the Democratic
and Republican parties, the American asserts.
General Grant once said that, no matter
what mistakes the Republican party might make,
it could always depend for it's election upon the
superior asninity of the Democratic party. That
situation has come to be reversed, and it may
now truthfully be said that matter what mis-
takes the Democratic party may make, that par
ty may depend for it's success on the paramount
imbecility of the Republican party" says the
American.
"The lesson to the Republican party in the
Maine election is this That as long as the Re-
publican party makes it impossible for nteli-
gent, self-respecting, patriotic Progressives to
go back into the Republican party, just so long
will the Progressive detection defeat the Repub-
lican party and maintain the Democratic party
in power.
"The significant fact in the Maine election is
not the smaness of the Progressive vote, but
the largeness of it, considering that Roosevelt
was uOC running ana CIldC CQeFc was not q single
newspaper in Maine supporting the Progressive
ticket.
1T has often been said that when Roosevelt
was not candidate the Progressive vote would
disappear But the facts show that, although
Roosevelt is not candidate at this election the
Progressive party continues to poll a sufficiently
large vote to defeat the Republican party.
1T is plainly evident that the strength of the
Progressive party depends upon something else
than the candidacy of Theodore Roosevelt.
1T depends upon the intelligence and the con-
science the conviction and the determination of
the Independent voters of the United States
and the independent voters of the United States
are more likely to increase in numbers than they
are to decrease in numbers
The strength of the Progressive party de-
ponds and will depend upon the attitude and the
action of the Republican party. The more duly
and obstinately reactionary the Republican party
becomes the more determined and the more de.
termining will become the Progressive vote in
the United States.

To All Friends of True Temperance:
In order to make clear the stand the
local German-American Alliance takes
against prohibition, we submit the fol-
lowing:
The local German-American Alliance
will fight the saloon evil in the most
practical way.
The American ealoon system is an
evil The results of the abuse of liquor
Is terrible. and yet, the sacrifice OF per-
sonal liberty and self-government is
wrong. as it means sacrifice OF q great
principle.
Forcing man to do good Is failure.
Educating men to do good for the love
of good ought at all times be the
motive. Germans and liberal Ameri-
cans are uniting against prohibition.
because they want sane and reason
| able government. Blue laws are Puri-
tanical and do not belong in this day
of culture. The local German-Ameri-
can Alliance has offered practical re-
forms for the saloon system that can
be carried out if made the wish OF

IF the Republican party were as much con-
cerned for the welfare of the nation as it pro-
fesses to be, if it were much concerned for the
interests of the individual citizens as it ought
to be, it would progress in its principles least
as far as the platform of the Progressive party
of 1912, which is not more progressive than, and
perhaps not quite as progressive as, the program
of Abraham Lincoln, the founder of the Repub-
lican party.
IF the Republican party is not willing to be
as progressive as it was fifty years ago. it is time
for it to be eliminated, and the Progressive party
can not confer greater benefit upon the country
than by eliminating it.
IF visionary Democratic party is danger
GUS and destructive to the business of the coun-
try, to the commerce of the country and to the
countrys national interest and Importance, re-
dictionary Republican party is equally dangerous
and destructive to the fundamental political prin-
ciples on which this government is based"

An Extravagant Congress.

For 1914-15 appropriations for the operating
expenses of the federal government are again to
exceed the billion dollar mark. There was bill
lion dollar session of congress in l913-14, but the
appropriations for the ensuing year are to ex-
coed the expenditures for the previous year by
over $4,000, as the budget now stands, without
any provision for rivers and harbors.
But the prospect for an appropriation of $685.
100000 for rivers and harbors, an increase of
$12,O00,OO0 over the appropriation for the same
purpose last year, is pleasing to the pork barrel
statesmen in both branches of congress.
AS usual, the appropriation bill for rivers and
harbors is bloated with useless extravagances,
and will make future expenditures difficult to
estimate
These two billion dollar congresses must be
placed to the credit Of the Democratic party,
which, for nearly two years has been in control
of both the legislative and executive branches of
congress, and which was placed in charge of the
affairs of government platform which de-
nounced Republican extravagances and pledged
its candidates to frugal economic policy.
How we'll these pledges have been carried out
is best shown in the subjoined table of total fed
eral government expenditures, exclusive of rivers
and harbor appropriations:
1901 .......... S 1881 ,O87
1911-12 .......... 995,799, 1852
1928 ......... 988,353,34O

A policy of government for the few bv the
many and the maintenance of prohibitory high
tariff wrecked the Republican party
1t is now pertinent to inquire of the Demo
cratic leaders whether the emergency tax meas.
ure, pending in the lower house, would have been
necessary under policy of conservation of the
public funds and a sane and scientific downward
revision of the tariff. There are many American
voters who are not prepared to swallow whole
the explanation offered by congress that the
European war is the sole cause for the introduc
ton of the emergency tax BILL
