TAMMANY AS A DEMOCRATIC REG
Ill ATOR

The Globe recently referred to the
Democratic party as the party that
'fawns upon Charles Murphy, the great
Tammapy Chief 1t Is a noted fact
that when the Democratic national tic
loet falls in favor with Tammany in
New York City during a national cleo
ton that even though the Tammany
bunch carries the city by a large ma
jority, the Republican ticket experience
es a similar good fortune. What is
rejected as refuse and undesirable by
the Democratic party is always gladly
accepted by the Republican party. There
is one city among others. Philadelphia,
where the Republican party always ac-
cepts and reaps the rank harvest OF

The Globe has never for brief in
slant contnnded that the Republican
party was composed strictly of saints,
robed and registered for ascension to
the glory realms. There's the differ
ence. This assumption Of the "god and
morality role for their party by the
Democratic press, with facts to the
contrary staring us In the face on ev-
cry page of history, is one Of the anus
ing as well as amazing features Of
our great political contests. The writ

Wet the Republicans of accspting any

(and who ever knew of either Rapubli-

presents the very grounds the Globe
would offer why the Democrats have
fawned. do fawn, and are now fawning
upon Tammany Chief Murphy. Let us

TWENTY YEARS HAVE WROUGHT
GREAT CHANGES IN RES
ERvATtON

Twenty years ago today the Nez Perez
Indian reservation was opened to the
white man to come and make his home
and carry on his civilization as God
gives him right.
This statement will conjure recollec-
tions Of bitter trials mingled with the
scattering pleasures known to frontier
life on the part OF the pioneers who
yet remain to tell their children and
grand children the story of the devel-
opment of one of the richest domains
over which Old Glory has yet been I'M
furled.
Twenty years has seen this prairie
portion OF the reservation pass from
an unframed grazing ground for wild
ponies-where bunch grass grew rank
In the summer only to be buried be-
meath snow and ice during the winter
to a continuous garden from which the
husbandmen yearly reap millions of dol
lars in golden grain and livestock
Twenty years has seen the pony ex-
press and stage coach give way to the
railroad and automobiles; beautiful homes
replace the tent and the shack; towns
and hamlets flourish, and modern con-
ditions generally overcome the primeval.
And yet the greater resources Of the
land await future generations Could
one draw a picture of conditions here
twenty years hence. this statement
would stand more than verified This
greater development is even now in
sight, and 1t will come principally in
more intensive farming, under better
transportation facilities. Those who
stand here today grasping both the hand
of the pioneer and OF the child of this
splendid future. as it were, are indeed
fortunate. From the one they may
learn and profit by the mistakes that
have been made and impart the wisdom
to the other and live on to see the
glorious fruition.--Nezperce Herald

some excerpts from that message:

And mark this sentence in that mes
sage: "our policy will not be for an

BY such fine phrases as these was
the country lulled into feeling OF Sc
curity, until the vitriolic attacks OF
Mr.. Gardner on the Daniels navy emas-
culation policy, and of the Republican
leaders on the policy Of skeletonizing
the standing army .awoke the people TO
our danger, and ''unpreparedness" be-
came the national watchwnrd. Then,
indeed, did the president and his pale

THE FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND
THE RIGHT TO WORK.

According to the recent decision Cd
the Supreme court Of the United States
an alien has right to seek employment
in any state of the union. The state
law of Arizona which undertook to linn
1t the number OF foreigners which might
be employed by any one employers was
declared unconstitutional The principal
OF law involved is that an alien has a
right to the protection of the law. and
that afer he has been admitted he may
do any lawful thing that citizen OF
the country may do. Full protection
OF the law necessarily gives the right
to earn a livelihood.
The alien is fully protected In this
country How about citizens Of the
United States?
The constitution OF the United States
amendment No. l. reads:
Congress shall make no law respect
ing an establishment OF reaig ON. or pro-
hibiting the free exercise thereof; Oh
aIbridging the freedom of speech OF
the press etc.
The assistant postmaster Of a small
town In Illinois. after the manner Of
free born citizens of this country, ex-
pressed his opinion of the nasty mar
riage OF President Wilson. His opin-
lon was that the president should have
waited a little longer. The expression
OF opinion resulted In the loss of his

national administration a direct viola.
ton of the spirit OF the first amend
ment OF the constitution? This assistant
postmaster was also in the civil ser
vice. The civil service law was passed
for the very purpose of protecting en-
ployes in their positions. Z was de-
signed to remove from the caprice o
politicians men and women in the gov
eminent employ. Does not the reason
ing which prevailed In the Arizons
case apply In this? Does a civil ser.
vice empioye lose his rights guaranteed
by the constitution and protested By
congressional legislation Whenever tht
exercise of those rights offends the pres
ident or som politician under him?
The president has reinstatAd the as
sistant postmaster realizing that his
action would provoke criticism more bit.
ter than that which followed the an
nouncement of his engagement. The
reinstatement comes as a boon from
the president. Kings and potentates
on occasions OF great jubilation, from
time immemorial, have been accustom-
ed to throw open the prison doors and
pardon Offenders. Mr.. Wilson Is fol-
lowing the time honored custom.-Cald-

WHAT We KNOW OF ITS EFFECTS.

In what way" asks the Houston
Post, "can the Republicans attack
the Democratic tariff? What do they
know about its virtues or defects?'
For instance. in the first eight
months that the Democratic tariff
was In operation our imports increased
one hundred and fourteen million doh
lars and our customs revenues decreas-
ed thirty six million dollars.
Our imports Of raw materials for
manufacturing Increased thirty-foua
million dollars. and even with the war
our imports in these lines are thirty
three million dollars more than they
were under Republican tariff
Our importations OF foodstuffs jumped
up eighty EIGHT million dollars and
practically all of 1t came in free OF
duty. and-even duGing the war-the in
crease was maintained.
In the first eight months OF the
Democratic tariff, our exports fell
off two hundred and four million dol
lars and our farmers had to see a
shrinkage In their foreign sales OF
fifty-seven miIlion dollars.
There Is a lot known about the de-
fects OF the Democratic tariff.
