MUST MEET ISSUES
Democrats Forced to Defend
Their Policies.
VIII BE Forced TO Face Their RECORD
upon the Tariff and its Levy Of
Direct Taxes to Cover
Deficiencies.

Speaker Clark has evidently accept
ed Mr.. Wilson as the Democratic nom.
inee for the presidency in 1915. else
he would not have given him the COM
plete Endorsement which has recently
been published. Republicans can now
rest satisfied as to the results upon
the issues which will be presented to
the electors In 1915, for. with Mr.. Will
son as the candidate. there can be no
successful lodging by the party In
power OF those issues. no covering up
or avoidance Of the record which thou
sands Of Democrats are ashamed Of
and which hundreds of thousand OF
former Democrats will repudiate by
their votes in 1915.
The party must face its record upon
the tarif. Its failure to protect Amer
lean workingmen. American agricul-
turists. American manufacturer, and
American investors will lose It votes
In every congressional district In the
nation.
Its levy Of direct taxes to cover the
deficiencies In the revenues from the
tariff cannot be successfully defended
before any audience, either Democrat
&c or Republican. in the country.
BY its tariff schedule 1t legislated
foreign manufactured goods into this
country, and 1t legislated business and
profits to the foreign producers. while
1t legislated closed shops and factories
In the United States and caused unem-
ployed labor, by hundreds of thou
sands. to seek soup houses and to form
bread lines in every important city Of
the republic.
As the soup houses and the bread
lines and the armies of tramps of 1893
to 1896 were the result OF the last
Democratic administration. so soup
houses. bread lines and tramps are of
the present one, and as the full dinner
pail promised by the Republican party
In 1896 flung the Democratic party out
OF power that year and brought 16
years of prosperity to all. so the soup
houses and bread lines of the Wilson
administration have caused nation
wide demand for the full dinner pail
once more. and the Republican party
Is called upon to provide 1t.

Root a. secretary Of state.

The Republican party has much
good presidential material. Any one
Of dozen men canvassed In connec-
ton with leading It against Mr.. Wilson
next year would measure up to presi-
Dental responsibilities. But as the
right man for premier in case OF Re-
publican success Mr.. Root may be
said to stand alone. His Qualifica-
tons and the opportunities he has
improved have given him an eminence
all his own.
This is not to say that domestic AZ
fairs will not require the most care
full handling In the next few years.
On the contrary. they will. Many
things have been dislocated by the
war. and new issues introduced In
our home concerns causing divisions
In political parties and political
speculation surprising even to vet
Grams, and promising vexation In the
near future.
