Mr.. Wilson and Wall Street.

President Wilson told the young Democrats
who journeyed from New York to Shadow Lawn
last Saturday, that the administration had been
able to control the Treasury without the as
sistance of Wall Street" DR.. Wilson, talking
to the students of Princeton, might have been
more exact in his use of words. He might have
said without the advice of Wall Street" The
Commissioner of Internal Revenue reports that
Wall Street gave material assistance to the Treas
ury last year. contributing $42,47s,ooo in revenue
the, State of New York contributing $Io5ooo,-
900, or more than all the States which furnished
the majority N Congress. The President and
his party in Congress did not overlook the abi-
ity of New York and Wall Street to assist the
Treasury when that institution needed assist
ance two years ago, or even only two months
ago.
1t is true that they did not seek the advice
of New York or the distinguished Democratic
Senate from New York. since the Committee
on Finance which gave final shape to the emer-
gency revenue bill two years ago, and to the
new revenue law more recently enacted, did not
have room for Senator O'Gorman on its list of
membership, but that committee was able to
call New York for assistance to the amount
of $23I3I,I4I collected as emergency revenue,
$I+o47,8o2 collected as corporation tax, and
S3o252,255 collected as individual income tax.
York gave one-third of the assistance to the
Treasury from these emergency and income
taxes while the other forty-seven States and
several Territories gave the other two-thirss.
The Senators and Representatives with whom
the President advised, for some reason, COM
PEELED New York to assist the Treasury more
than did all the States which they represented
and under the new revenue lazy Wall Street will
be compelled to double its assistance to the
Treasury. Was it careless for the President to
use the word assistance" in talking to New York
men about his ability to get along without the
help of Wall Street and the great State in which
that short street is such conspicuous highway?
Even New York Democrats may resent the bald
assertion that the Treasury had been able to get
along without the assistance of New York and
Wall Street.
President Wilson has not, to date. sought the
advice of Charles F. Murphy, but Judging from the
interview of Vance Mccormick and the appeal of
Mr.. Morgenthau for campaign funds Mr. Will
son expects the assistance of Wall Street and
Tammany, another well-known and somewhat
important institution of New York, to continue
the present administration in power.
The Washington herald., 1916-10-02
Socialists Expectant.

An interesting prediction is made with seem
ing sincerity and confidence by John L. Engdahl,
editor of the American Socialist who asserts
his party will be represented in the House Of
Representatives, as a result of the baoting in
November, by eight Socialists; that Nevada will
elect Socialist Senator, and that at least 2ooo,-
900 votes will be polled by the party throughout
the country
Mr.. EngdahI calls attention to the fact that
the Socialist party was the only that showed
increased strength in the 1912 election. OF
course the split in the Republican party was
responsible, at least to some extent, for the
gain recorded for the Socialists but Mr.. Engdahl
doesn't mention that consideration. However
the circumstance that the Socialist vote jumped
from slightly more than 100000 to almost I,ooo-
is significant
Meyer London's reelection to the House from
New York is declared certainty, and it also
is predicted that Morris Hillquist, one of the
most brilliant protagonists of Socialism in this
country will defeat the Tammany Hall candidate
in his district. The Fifth Indiana district is
counted upon by Mr.. Engdahl to elect to the
House Eugene V. Debs, four times his partys
nominee for President, and Victor Berger, for
mer Representative, is figured to win in Mil
waukee.
Oklahoma, where a picturesque campaign is in
P4OSlNSSb ID lCllCu upon ny the SOCIALISTS, 10
provide three more representatives of the Utopian
cult In that State the Republicans have indorsed
the Socialists fair election law submitted through
the agency of the initiative, which is designed
to destroy the power of the Democratic bosses,
who control the States election machinery. The
race question figures to a considerable extent
in this contest, in which the Socialists are con-
tending for fair deal for the negro as a citi-
zen.
Grant Miller is the Socialist candidate for
Senator in Nevada, where the woman vote will
figure largely in the result The Socialists say
they will get the bulk of this vote because OF
Miller's leadership in the fight that resulted in
the granting of suffrage to women. However
the Senatorial contest is engaging the attention
of some of the most astute politicians in the
little Western State and the hopes of the Social
lists are likely to be dashed. 1t would be inter
esting to observe the official career of Socialist
In the most exclusive club in the world"
incidentally, merely as a matter of informa-
ton, it might be we'll to remark that the Socialist
candidates for President and Vice President are,
respectively, Allan L. Benson and George R Fitz-
patrick.

POLITICS.
An Early Abolition Candidate.
By DIR. z. J. EDWARDS.

John P. Hale, who for many years was
the United States Senator from New
Hampshire, has now been forgotten ex-
cepting by the veterans tWho as young
men recall the exciting politics of the
ten years preceding the civil war. He
will not be forgotten by those who read
the highly-interestIng and very valuable
diary which Gideon WelIes, Secretary Of
the Navy under Presidents Lincoln and
Johnson, wrote. For there were many
references to John p. Hale in Mr.. Welles'
diary, and they were not altogether Of
a pleasant nature. There was something
In the temperament OF both men which
undoubtedly made association between
them not especially agreeable.
John P. Hale was a candidate for the
Presidency in 1852 and one Of his two
rivals in that campaign was his long
time personal friend-Franklin Pierce. Mr
Hale resembled Gen. Pierce in some re-
spects. especially i'm an unusually charm
ing personality. Gen. Pierce was a mas
ter Of courtesy and he could be dignified
without giving ofIense to any one. John
p. Hale was a man Of striking physique
with noble head, set superbIy upon
his shoulders, and with eyes that seemed
to be the windows not only Of his mind,
but OF his soul
He was named as candidate for Presi-
dent in 1852 by the Abolition party. He
had no expectation OF receiving A single
electoral vote. nor did the Abolitionists
who nominated him believe that he
would gain more than a few thousand
votes in some OF the northern States
But Senator Hale was firmly convinced
that IL the Abolitionists organized suf-
fiCiently to nominate a candidate for
President and made a campaign upon the
sole issue of the elimination Of slavery
they would create an influence which
gradually increasing, would at last pre-
vail with the whole country. Hale was
very 1ne public speaker but he was
not deceived as others who have been
candidates for high office have been de-
ceived because great throngs gathered to
hear him. He was always Of the opinion
that the presence OF multitudes at a
campaign meeting was not to be taken
as evidence that these multitUdes were
going to support a particular candidate
He once said that the American people
were very fond OF public speaking and
they were especially fond of hearing a
man speak whom they do not intend to
support at the polls.
Senator Hale and his friends always
felt that his nomination and campaign
for the presidency in 1852, inconspicuous
as those events were, swiftly created the
influences which, three years later, led
to the organization of the Republican
party, and that was for Senator Hale a
sufficient triumph for the hopeless task
he undertook when he accepted the
Abolition nomination for President.

who bowed TO me in a restaurant. And
then he came to my table. Somewhere
had met him and somewhere be had met
me. We talked Of the weather. the
Giants winning streak. but avoided per-
sonal questions, for he could not remen-
per my name and could not remember
his.
When we parted we shook hands ana
hoped we would meet again A half hour
later remembered his name-and also
remembered that he was a strolling play
er and came to a Missouri town where I
was living.
That night at the thester I saw him
again-the leading man in a Broadway
production. waited for him at the stage
door In an invalid's chair was a young
woman also waiting. When he came out
he was all concerned for her and for her
comfort
lie introduced me and / walked with
MIN TO his hotel while he wheeled his
wife. Later in the lobby he told me the
story. She, too. had been with him with
the repertoire company. They had mar
rled six years ago and then a railroad
wreck ended her stage carer-sn injury
him.
The newspaper instinct prevailed and
II was suggested that such marvellous de-
Notlon was rarely seen, and II was
strange that the story had never been
printed.
II Is story" he said u never want
to see printed. II is not a story for tbo
sob sister It is story Of devotion
that is not uncommon in stage life. You
will find hundreds OF such stories righ.
along New York's Rialto."
And for that reason I do not mention
his name.

them be invited to send delegates and the
so-cailed joint commission may amount to
something: The administration at Washington
might feel somewhat embarrassed in the matter

detail and the Inconsistency of the invitation
would not abash Villa if it did not abash the

Not only newspapers but practically all kinds
of magazines and other publications now ar.
suffering from the acute paper shortage. The
Scientific American in announcing an increase
in price effective yesterday, tells of the problem
facing publications in these words:
We wish to explain that during the past wear
the price OF print paper has increased from 100
to $50 per cent There has been an advance in
reached an almost prohibitive price There has
been rise in the cost of printing and binding,
Photoengrsying has advanced nearly 100 ner
cent and electrotyping metal now costs more
than ever before
The factors which have contributed to N.
present situation are only In part attributable to
the war. PTees now prevailing are eertain to
end. " -"
Because the Scientific American is costing
much more to produce than it ever did before
and because we are giving our subscribers bet
ter product than ever before in the history of the
journal, We are compelled to make the change in
the price OF subscription
