NOT As RECORDED
Mr.. Wilson Makes Absurd Claims
for Party.
Achievements for Which He Asks
Credit Shown to Belong to the
Republicans - Long List OF
Progressive Measures.

II we were devotedly attached to
the Democratic party. al we certainly
are not. II we thought the Republican
party was all wickedness and sin. a.
we certainly do not. we think we stu
should be able to see plain facts to
which Mr.. Wilson, both az politician
and q historian. Is blind. declares the
New York Press. +.
Did Mr.. Wilson's Democratic party
in the less than two years 1t has had
possession of the government estab-
lish the national control of railway
rates. or did some other party. years
before Mr.. Wilson went to the White
House?
Did Mr.. Wilson's Democratic party
enact the antitrust laws after March
4. 1913. or did some other party do that
work years before that datei
Did Mr.. Wilson's Democratic party
stop railroad rebating, take combina'
lions in restraint of trade into court
and break up such monopolies, or was
this work begun and to all intents and
purposes finished before Mr. Wilson.
at least in his present official capacity.
ever saw or dreamed of the White
House?.
Did Mr.. Wilson's Democratic party
set up and put into operation the
policy Of conserving the resources OF
the United States, or was this
achievement put into full swing two
whole presidential terms before Mr..
Wilson was elected to the chief mag
istracy Of this nation?
Did ,fr. Wilson's Democratic party
in the last twenty-odd months acquire
the Panama strip. plan the canal
across the isthmus, provide $3.50. 100000
for the work and build 1t. or did two
previous administrations perform that
feat. leaving 1t to Mr.. Wilson's admin
istration to open the lock gates after
the work was done?
There may be q difference Of opin-
ion among honest men as to whether
the Republican party did good thing
or bad thing when II took so progress
sive course as to establish control
of railway rates: but there can be no
difference of opinion as to the fact
that It was the Republican party which
did II.
The same thing is true Of all the
other progressive measures we have
mentioned. Whether they were the
wisest things in the world or not. they
were Republican achievements, every
one OF them; and all the Democratic
party has had to do with those pro-
gressive measures has been to admin
lister them after they were brought
into existence and operation by the
Republican party.

One Democratic Term Enough.

OU0 OoWoCIatl0 oSm enough.
Governor Colquitt of Texas in blunt.
ly declaring the failure of the Wilson
administration is only expressing
what plenty of other Democrats are
thinking. It Is the truth that has
dawned upon the party since the late
election. The glamour which enveloped
the presidents leadership Of the party
was largely. II not completely. dissi-
pated when the election demonstrated
that the policies which he forced upon
congress we're not acceptable to the
country.
The country has given very I'M
pressive notice that one term of
Democratic administration Is as much

has managed to avoid any Endorsement
Of the one-term plank Of the last Dem
ocratic national platform. the people
are likely to see to It that It IL made

fight for the Dover postmastership,
and the result may have much to do
with the future leadership of Della

The choice for the new Office rests
upon United States Senator Willard

merchant; William Dyer, octogenar-
ian treasurer of the Democratic
County Committee, and William
Salisbury, a cousin of the Senator.
Dyer. staunch supporter of Sen

and refused to endorse Salisbury rs
senatorial candidate. Houston and
his comrades deadlocked the election
Days passed and Senator Salisbury
lacked two votes Of being elected
Then Houston and the three Others
suddenly yielded and Salisbury was
