right on the ship purchase scheme as
it was on the absurd and costly sea-
mans bill. The New York Sun Of
Friday morning said:
Had Woodrow Wilson. not afiixed
his approving signature to the sea-
mems bill, that measure would not
have been put upon the statute books
of the United States. Its promoters
forced it through the Congress when
at any stage of its progress a word
from Mr.. Wilson would have con-
signed it to oblivion. Its opponents,
reinforcing their pleas with figures
and facts of an authenticity never as
sailed, appealed to the President in
vain to exercise his. authority for the
protection Of. the American foreign
ship industry.
Mr.. Wilson must share with SEN
ator La Toilette and his adherents
the responsibility for an enactment
as absurd in its pretences as it is ma
licious in it's design. He was COM
pletely and specifically informed as
to the effect it must produce on do
mestic enterprise and on interna-
tional relations. He assented to it
with full knowledge. of its menace.
and by its signing made it his.
Already, before all its provisions
have become enforceable. the folly OF
this vicious class legislation has been
impressed on the country. Its authors
have been sufficiently exposed. but
Mr.. Wilson'S contribution to their
success has been generally overlooked.
Yet without his aid their plan would
have failed. and the seamen's bill
would not have become law.
Under the circumstances it is un-
fair that all the blame should be be-
slowed on La Toilette and the vote
hungry members Of Congress who
stood with him. Mr.. Wilson must
stand with them now as he did when
the bill came to him: nor can he es-
cape reproach for his part in this
sorry adventure until by his own act
he moves to erase the statute and
free the ships Of our merchant marine
from its impossible impositions.

Tho Philippines Also,

That President Wilson'S obstinacy
and overbearing self-confidence are
sowing the wind from which this
country will reap the whirlwind in the
Philippines is the solemn warning Of
ex President Taft. Republican though
he be, Judge Taft has Loyalty upheld
the hands Of President Wilson wher-
ever he conscientiously could and has
even plagued some Of his more parti-
san Republican friends by his praise
of the present occupant of the White
House. But regarding the Philippines
Mr.. Taft speaks on the subject doubt
less nearest his heart and Of which
he is most competent to speak. and
his denunciation Of Governor General
Harrison, OF the extent to which this
Administration is corrupting the
Philippine civil service and setting a
bad example to the people we have
undertaken to train in the art of self
government should not fall on deaf
ears. Mr.. Taft warns the people Of
the United States that the Admins
tration Is creating another Mexican
situation. The Philippines are so far
away that only those especially COM
petent to judge Of conditions there, or
who have special advantages in OBJ
tanning information, are likely to
know the facts unless. and until, there
is some violent outbreak, but terrible
retribution will await the Administra-
ton which deliberately, or at least in
