PRESIDENTS PROGRESSIVE
 ADVICE TO DEMOCRATS


 President Wilson Is under no iliu- sions about Che temper of the Ameri- can people. He shows this plainly when he says that .the country is guided and its policy is shaped by the Independent voter Speaking as & Democrat to Democrats, he asks how Democrats can best prove to the independent voter that their party is the instrument be needs. That is the suesaon any party faces in this coun- try today it is lho ouly healthy polit- ical condition the country can be in.
 Failure to realizo the strength Of the independent voter defeated Che Republican party tbe same cause brought the Democratic state ticket to defeat in State elections in Wiscon. sin And lhe President says plainly that there are plenty of Democrats who have mol yet realized this. i say a great deal more e' he says. be cause there are Democrats Who ore sitting on the breeching strap who are holding back" Perhaps he was Thinking ol Reed and Hitchcock and o'Gorman in the Seuate-men who have not realized that the country does not care to see Congress ally itself with Tammany just as Wis, consin has not cared to support a State Democracy when 1t showed it- self willing to be tho tool oi special interests
 It is good for Democrats, and for Republicans. too to think over what the President says of this people Of our Perhaps there is aa much food for thought in his anlysis of polidcai conditions as in any other thing he says. Perhaps the heart of the mat ter win appear clearly enough # one ponders this piihy saying
 eThe country is not going to trou- ble itself ladies and gentlemen, to lie awake nights and wonder what men are going to do. If they have to do that, they will choose other men. and that is all to the business."-( (Afilwau- kee Journal)

THE RocKEFELLER FOUNDATION.
 John D. Rockefeller 5r reminded che Commission on industrial rela- dons Of an important fact when he stated on Che witness stand that the charter Of the Rockefeller Foundation, whenever crcumstances require ib can be amended or annulled Many persons seem determined to make bo- gies Of tho Rockefeller and Carnegie Foundations and similar institutions with which to frighten themsel9es. If they only stopped to consider the ac- tual conditions under which these big trusts exist and must operate they might take a caimer view Of che dan gers to which future generations are likely to be exposed.
 The charters of all such foundations. whatever their original scope, are nee essarily subject to change or reyo- cation They may be altered or ter mnt5d at any time that they ieaa 70 abuses or prove to be against public policy They are not perpetual grants Of power which may be used as in- sruments of tyranny against 9 heip- less people Whatever their fife un- der tho law, these foundations arc subject to regulation and may be hedg- ed about with restrictions not today to be forseen.
 Evidently the Commission on lu- dusdial Relations is not Investigating the past or the preeent but the iuture. It is not dealing with iacts os they gre. but is absorbed in the ieaTs of nervous individuals who trembia over Che fate Of generations get unborn.
 Like 80 many other things lhat have
