Failures to Keep Faith with the
People.

From Cincinnati Enquirer Dem)
The platform of the Democratic
party, adopted at Baltimore in July,
1912. was a wise platform, sound
platform. progressive platform and
a popular platform. as evidenced by
the election of a host of Democratic
candidates candidates swept into
power by reason of the belief Of the
people that they would keep the faith
pledged in the platform and promised
In the campaign.
Every platform pledge that has not
been kept constitutes a breach Of
faith with the voters.
Every departure from the pledges
Of that platform has been a departure

tutions and destructive Of good govern
ment. and constitutes denial OF that
recognition OF responsibility to the
voters which is essential in republic
The Senators and Representatives
aud party leaders who promised tolls
exemption for American coastwise
ships through the Panama Canal and
then voted to tax them with tolls
abandoned the Democratic platform.
The Senators and Representatives
who promised to revise the tariff so
as to reduce the high costs OF living
TO the people Of the United States
have not rendered those costs and
have failed to fulfil their promises to
the people.
The Baltimore platform said:
'The constitutional rights OF Amer
lean citizens should protect them on
our borders and go with them through
out the world. and every American
citizen residing or having property in
any foreign country is entitled TO and
must be given the full protection OF
the United States Government, both
for himself and his property"
American citizens for two years have
been killed OF MANNED along the Texas
border and on the boundary lines Of
New Mexico and Arizona. Their con-
stitutional rights are no protection
from the guns OF Mexican bandits
The American refugees at Tampico
last April we're rescued by the gallant
Captain and brave crew Of the German
cruiser Dresden, while our own yes
sells lolled IN the gulf Is miles away.
The American refugees at Manzanil-
la, robbed, iusulted, spat upon BY Mex
lean mobs. found refuge upon Ger
man coolie ship. just arrived from
Hongkong. and we're carried safely to
San Diego by its Captain while Amer
lean cruisers. within IS hours run,
were lying idle at Mazatlan.
All this was not in accordance or
in harmony with the declaration OF
the Baltimore platform. and this neg
lect Of American men. women and
children was not the fault OF our gal
liant soldiers or sailors.
Rural credits were promised the
people In the Baltimore platform. and
the people Of the agricultural districts
Of the South. the North, the West and
the East know that promise has not
been kept.
The Baltimore platform declared for
tariff for revenue. and within twelve
months after the passage OF the new
law the country Is told that war taxes
In a time OF profound peace are neces.
sary to cover the expenditures Of the
government.
The Baltimore platform contains no
authority for war taxes.
The Republican party never levied
war taxes on people in time OF peace.
Heretofore Republicans had a mo-
nopoly OF levying war taxes. but when
they did levy them Il was to cover
war expenses
The Baltimore platform was right,
the party was right In its declarations.
fhe country was right In It's approval
OF the platform. and those Senators
and congressman who have been
faithful to the platform and TO Its
pledges to the people should be 70
elected.

Guard Your Children
Against Bowel Trouble

Many children at an early age
become constipated, and frequently
serious consequences result. Not
being able to realize his own con-
dition, child's bowels should be
constantly watched, and a gentle
laxative given when necessary.
especially we'll adapted to women
and children. The Sisters of
Christian Charity, 53I Charles ST.,
Luzerne, Pa, who attend many
cases of sickness say of them:
Some time ago we began using DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets and find that
we like them very much. Their action
is excellent and we are grateful for
having been made acquainted with
them. We have had good results in
every case and the Sisters are very
much pleased"
The form and flavor of any medi-
cine is very important, no matter
who is to take it. The taste and
appearance are especially important
when children are concerned. All
parents know how hard it is to give
the average child medicine" even
though the taste is partially dis
guised In using DR.. Miles Lax
alive Tablets, however, this diff
Guilty is overcome. The shape OF
the tablets, their appearance and
candy-like taste at once appeal to
any child, with the result that they
are taken without objection
The rich chocolate flavor and
absence of other taste, make DR..
Miles Laxative Tablets the ideal
remedy for children.
If the first box fails to benefit,
the price is returned Ask your
druggist. A box of rs doses costs
only rs cents. Never sold in bulk.

CONTROL MEASURES FOR
BLACK SPOT OF ROSES

Oregon Agricultural College, Corval-
lis, Ore, June 4.--Considerable concern
is felt among rose fanciers regarding
some Of the fungous pests that attack
their favorite ornament, according to
inquiries received by the Plant Pathol-
ogy department of the Oregon Agricul-
tural college. Chief among the dis
eases is that commonly called "blaek
spot" trouble affecting the foliage
and we'll characterized by the name.
Recommendations for control are az
to gather and burn all leaves that have
the spot, whether dead or still on the
bush. This should be done some time
between late fall and the time new
growth startsin the spring, This alone
is not sufficient so it will be necessary
(2) to use some good fungicide as a
spray, applications to be made at inter
walls of about ten days or so that new
foliage is kept covered.

Ian, Mex, May 23.--(By mail to San

This was the statement of s. NJ.
Kcyes, special agent of the Washington
state department, who came aboard the

Keyes, General 0bregon has exercised
the strietest censorship upon all news
from Vera Cruz.
"Obregon is afraid" he continued,
"that if his soldiers knew several hun.
dred Mexicans had been killed at Vera
Grub and that Americans still occupy
the city, they would lose interest in
their present campaign and would un.

More than 40 Americans have refus-

state department.
"They are perfectly safe,'' Keyes
said, $50 long as news Of the true state
