Attacking the Mexican Policy.

President Wilson has the solid sup
port of the American people in his
policy toward the countries involved
in the great war. This is proved by
the presidents political enemies.
They have almost abandoned their eff
forts to pick flaws in his attitude on
submarine piracy and the rights of
,neutralsy at sea, and are turning their
heaviest guns on his Mexican policy.
4 Probably 1t Is the best thing they
can do. but it does not offer much
hope.
President Wilson was in honor
bound to try persuasion before resort

The Wall Street Journal calls upon
that part of the country which does
the real work, which runs the mills
and the railroads" to consider the ex-
pediency "of radical change at
Washington after the next presiden-
tial election"
The object Of this radical change Is
to remove 'the shackles from the
trade, finance and transportation Of
the country" "All that is wanted is
leader like Mckinley to drag US out OF
this Slough of Despond."
The Slough of Despond to which the
Wall Street Journal refers is condi-
ton of almost unparalleled prosperity
in which the United States is making
itself the financial and industrial mas
ter of the world. But unparalleled
prosperity in itself does satisfy the
sordid greed of Big Business. Big
Business can never believe In the real
ity of a prosperity, no matter how
abundant If Wall street does not con-
troll the government of the United
Statess
When the Wall Street Journal be-
gins to agitate for "a leader like Nc
Kinley," it does not mean Mckinley.
1t means Hanna, and the campaign for
the re-establishment of Hannaism is
already well under way.

THEIR LAST CHANCE
Republicans win Make Desperate
sst Effort for Victory.
Leaders Realize That Four More
Years Of Wise Democratic Admin
lstratlon Will Place Party In
Power for Long Period.

All parties always are anxious to
win campaigns, but the feverish ca
gerness Of the Republican leaders to
get back in the saddle next year
passes anything known in this coun-
try for many day.
The reason is clear. The country Is
prosperous and is getting more pros
porous; moreover, good times are sure
to continue for considerable period,
in spite OF the war waste Of Europe.
II prosperity is allowed to grow and
develop under a Democratic admins
tration, with the lowest tariff since the
Civil war, the country never will go
back to Aldrichism, and ambitious Re-
publicans may as well hang up the
fiddle and the bow for the next dozen
years. But If the G. o. P. can grab
control next year, raise the tarin,
and yet hang to the results Of Presi-
dent Wilson's wise craftsmanship In
passing the currency law and keeping
the nation at peace-in word, II the
Republican organization can cash VIII.
sons checks, it will be safe for an
other period of prosperous plumber
and protection" graft like that ush-
cred in by Mark Hanna.
This is why the nation is being
combed for Republican presidential
candidates. This is why Republican
speakers and writer's are going over
President Wilson's record with MI
croscope, trying to find some trifiing
error on which to hang wild COM
plant. This is why we hear such
dolorous wailing about 'our failure in
Mexico" where we have not failed,
and such wild clamor about the ma
tional defense, which the Republican
party neglected for sixteen years.
Anything for an issue and anybody
for candidate, il that issue or that
nominee seems to have a chance to
beat President Wilson. That is the
guiding principle that rules the Re-
publican party today.
