An Unfair Political Situation.

Omaha, Oct. Ito the Editor OF

He said the only place where there
Is any enthusiasm for Wilson is right
in Omaha, while there is a tremendous
sentiment for Hughes In New York

He said he had been in Canada this
fall and that the people up there max
lots of fun of this country on account
of the weak national administration
of Wilson.

Nothing in Democracy for
PrOeressiyes.

Omaha, Oct. Ito the Editor of
The Bee; A concerted effort is being
made to convince former progressives
that they will come nearer realizing
their hopes with the democratic than
with their old comrades in the repub-
lican party. To this end, we are be-
ing reminded that some of the things
the democrats have done were advo-
Gated first by progressives. l shouldn't
wonder IL this is true. ! am inclined
to think that nearly all, If not all
they have done that is good had a
progressive origin. Is that a reason
for joining the party? Let us see.
A genuine progressive thinks ma
tionally: he realizes that the state has
an important place in our government
and he has no idea of interfering with
any of the legitimate functions of the
state, but when he thinks of this coun-
try as opposed to or in conjunction
with any other country, he doesn't
think of Ohio, or Nebraska. or New
York, or California;; he has in mind
a country, not loosely Joined con-
federation of states How Is 1t with
the democratic party? Isn't 1t true
that in doing the things the progress
sives stand for they, the democrats,
have had to violate the very funda-
mental principle upon which their
party is founded? Isn't this funda-
mental inability to grasp the idea of
a nation at the root of their bungling
patchwork preparedness scheme?
Doesn't 1t rise up and confront every
man of national vision in the party?
Why should a progressive put him
self in position where every time he
does anything sensible he will have
10 too q@ 49,
square with his professed beliefs?
The two parties, progressives and
democratic, are as wide apart as it is
possible to get, in theory of govern
ment, whatever they may be in prac-
tice. Notwithstanding Mark Hanna
and his famous saying, the democratic
party has always been the stand-pa
party, in theory. 1t has been the party
of stiff adherence to a literal inter-
probation of the constitution the party
that insists upon deciding every ques
ton that comes up by measuring Ii
with yard stick $50 years old, that
is always and continually looking over
its shoulder toward the rear. Where
is there room in a party like that
for genuine progressive?
Personally, the question does. not
bother me at all. If agreed with Wi.
son on every internal, social and dom.
este question, I'd still be against his
reelection. There's just one question
before the American people today ant
that is, shall we approve the shame
less abandonment Of American right.
in Mexico and on the high seas, OF
shall we place the government in the
hands of men who know something
about government, VINO will have

Spangled Banner played without look
