Philip M. Clark, a Progressive
leader in Massachusetts, who,
only two years ago. was able to
poll $4,000 votes when a candi-
date for district attorney in his
county, has come back to Repub-
lican ranks. In a letter to the
Republican state committee he
warns his former Progressive
party associates against cOnfus-
ing their ideals with "the con-
tinued existence Of a political
party which the people have de-
cided to discard. Those who led
the Progressive party in its early
days no longer lead: those who
control it's organization and shape
it's course fail absolutely to in
spire confidence; it's voters have
vanished. Mr.. Clark declares
his continued faith in Progress
sive principles, but believes they
can be enacted into law through
the Republican party. 'The Dem
ocratic party" he says, lis at
heart reactionary; the best proof
is it's record in the southern states
where it's control has been abso-
lutte for years. The Republican

Oil over 1913. This year there are

The variation in the rumber Of
live stock in Ohio for different
periods is an interesting study.
While the number of sheep has
rapidly decreased, Ohio has more
cattle today than she has had for
thirty years. The most remark
able fact Of all is, that in spite of
steam roads, interurbans, bicycles,
motorcycles and automobiles,
Ohio has today more horses than
at any time in her past history,
except last year, and this is true
also of mules. The decline in the
number of sheep during the past
half century is Ohio's most seri-
Gus agricultural loss, With wool
above 25 cents a pound, there
ought to be not less than four
million sheep in the state, and
that number at the present ay-.

Democratic Failure.

Democratic Failure.
AS business managers the Dem
ocrats have been a conspicuous
failure.
1t has already been shown that
the thRe laws the last Congress
enacted to raise money, namely,
the tariff. income tax, and "war
taxi laws, each failed to produce
the amount needed.
A study of the rec rd of laws
enacted to spend money shows
that careless methods of appro-
priation insured wasteful eXpon-
ditrre.
Examine the history of appro-
priation bills during the time the
Democratic House has handled
them, and you find that fifteen
regular appropriation bills have
failed to pass before the neces-
sary date, and that fifteen times
a resolution extending the ap-
preparation of the previous year
had to be passed.
This method of appropriation
is an admission of incompetency
and ineficiency in itself. It eau
ses a tremendous financial loss in
the work Cf every department Of
government. 1t complicates ac-
counts, hinders the making of
plans in advance, prevents the
execution of contracts for neces-
sary work, and prevents alIOt-
ting funds equitably for the diff
ferent seasons of the year.
A member of the present cabi-
net. Secretary of Commerce w.
c. Redfield, severely criticised
Congress for this kind of extrav-
agance in his last annual report.
Finally, money loss arises
from failure to make apprCpria-
tions in time to keep the work of
the government moving" said
Secretary Redfeld. '"The seri-
Gus results of these latter losses
are probably not appreciated.
T&oy undoubtedly amount to
more than some of the economies
thought to be effected by clip
ping estimates.
In this connection it should not
be overlooked that during the
sixteen years of Republican con-
troll preceding the present ad-
ministration. the appropriation
bills were invariably Lassed be-
fore they were needed. and an
extension resolution was never
resorted tc.

CONFESSED HE |S
 GERMAN OFFICER
Man Who Dynamited International Bridge Will Fight Extradi-
 tion To Canada.

VANCEBORO, Me-, Feb. 4.-Weren CT Vanhorn, who was arrested by the American authorities for blowing up the international bridge spanning the St. Croix river with dynamite, has confessed that he is an officer in the German army who has been re. siding on both sides of the interna- tional line but has not acquired citi- zenship in either country.
 The Canadian authorities have ap- piled for extradition papers in an eff. fort to get Vanhorn back on Canadian soil. where he would be treated as a spy. The prisoner claims immun- ity from extradition and declares that he has never become Canadian citi- zen. although he has lived some time in Canada.
 Vanhorn is evidently plentifully supplied with money and has engag- ed counsel to represent him. His attorneys declare that should the gov ernor of Maine consider granting ex- tradition of their client to the Ca nadian authorities they will appeal to the German consulate in Washington as the prisoner is a German subject and as such not extraditable from one foreign country to another. The local authorities believe Vanhorn is a member of German society or ganized in America to work destruc- Canada sending troops to France to fight Germany.
