THE PLATFORM

On page three appears in full the
platform of the Democratic party
adopted at the st. Louis convention
last week. 1t is a clear presentation
of the policies and achievements of
the Democratic party for the past
three years, setting forth in concise
language what the present Democrat
ic administration has accomplished in
wise and wholesome legislation for
the people and what it has in course
of accomplishment; the Presidents
firm and successful policy in dealing
with the grave and delicate questions
growing out of the European war,
maintaining with peace the honor of
our nation and the established prin-
ciples of international law; his pol
icy and dealings with our weaker and
revolution-torn sister republic south
of us, to avoid if possible armed inter-
vention and war with Mexico, and
viz PoA " o paIllOllI dSCldI dIluH VI
genuine American spirit at home.
There is no equivocation or eva
sion of the party's attitude on any
public question. 1t rings clear and
true. There is nothing the party
wishes to hide. 1t has proved its
faith by it's works, and it stands by
its works. 1t has made record of
wise and benefcent legislation in the
three short years it has been in power
that is not paralleled in the history
of the country. 1t wants the people
to know its record, for ON that rec
ord it appeals to them, confident of
their approval. Read the Democratic
platform carefully, and then read the
evasive, shifting platform adopted by
the Republicans at Chicago, in which
there is not single clearly defined
policy set forth, and make up your
mind which party is deserving your
support.

THE DEMOCRATIC CANDIDATES.


The National Democratic Conven-
ton in session in st. Louis last week
was remarkable for the wholesome
and absolute harmony that was in ex-
istence everywhere throughout the de-
liberations. Absolute harmony and
greatest enthusiasm were everywhere
present, not only in the convention
hall, but also in hotel Hobbies, COM
mittee rooms and everywhere Demo-
Gratis could be found. 1t is a perfect
ly safe proposition that never before
did a national convention assemble
where there was united feeling of
good fellowship, absence of discord,
and where all appeared to be working
for the accomplishments of the same
results, along the same lines.
There was not a Democrat in at
tendance at that convention who was
opposed to the denomination of Pres
ident Wilson, because the convention
was unanimous that he was the log
ical man to be at the head of govern
mental affairs during these troub-
lous times-the one man who is best
prepared to conduct the American
people through the dark clouds that
now envelop this country, created by
the world war that is now in progress.
Also few lightning flashes clari-
fled the atmosphere in regard to the
Vice Presidential nomination, SO that
ere the time arrived for the selection
of President Wilson's running mate,
the small contest that for awhile
threatened Thomas R. Marshalps re-
nomination had entirely disappeared,
and his nomination also was unani-
nous. Therefore, the business of the
convention was closed without the
least fraction of discord entering into
its deliberations, and no one was per-
mitted to carry back to their homes
the least soreness, but all departed
filled with renewed Democratic zeal
and ardor that must insure an over
whelming Democratic victory next
November.

Teddy coughs as vigorously as he
does everything else. He coughed so
hard the other day that several small
tendons attached to one of his ribs
snapped An X-ray disclosed the
cause of the sudden pain in his side,
but his physician says that the injury
is not serious and would heal in a
few days, for which we are all glad,
for the Colonel is one of Americas
best all-round entertainers. He is so
earnest and cocksure in all that he
does-even his coughing.

The Horse Editor on the Paris APP
peal (Jack Blanton) has figured out
a great schenie" to keep the national
government in revenue. He would
have Congress pass an act requiring
ten-dollar stamp affixed to every
piece of press agent and free copy
stuff sent out by the various individ-
uals, organizations, companies, cor
porations, ETC., to the poor, long-suf-
fering country newspaper men in the
hope to acquire bit of their valuable
space without cash outlay. This
looks like good plan. AS he sug-
Sests, il would either make the gov
ernment lot of money or make the
life of the average editor several hun
bred per cent more pleasant. Every
body, from the United States govern
ment itself down to the one-horse
schemer, with a few acres of swamp
land or hill scenery to sell-to say
nothing of the various thousands of
State and other politicians-has a
contribution for the paper every now
and again, varying from a paragraph
to a six-column page in size. Some of
it is readable, some of no interest
whatever, but it is all advertising
and the editor that can sidestep it all
is a dandy.-Caruthersville Democrat.

What are the views of the Repub-
lican candidate for President, Mr..
Hughes, on the income tax? He didn't
tell us in his letter accepting the NOM
ination, but in 1910 we are told that
he tried to defeat the ratification of
the income tax amendment to the
Constitution by the New York Leg
islature.

On the first page of this issue of
The Times appears a resume of the
differences that have recently devel-
loped in regard to the management of
State Hospital No. A, which is as near
ly correct as it is possible to make it
at this stage of the proceedings, and
is. authoritative. We trust these diff
ferences will be eliminated by the par
ties concerned, or by and through a
thorough and impartial investigation;
but we do insist that, from what we
have been able to learn, that State
Hospital No. A, under its present ex-
ecutive management has been most
excellent from moral and economi-
cal standpoint, and unless there are
serious reasons for fling charges up
on graver grounds than intimated in
this statement, these differences should
be eliminated and the management
sustained. ,t4f.f,ii' J.. re-.

Nobody is left in doubt as to where
President Wilson stands on any pub
lie question, but it would take mind
reader to tell where Mr.. Hughes, the
Republican candidate for President,
stands. His letter of acceptance that
came out of silence of six years
doesn't tell. Glitterins generalities
are not legal tender in politics these
days.

Truly great is Bryan! He is even
greater at this hour than he has ever
before been recognized to be. His
presence was the eflulgent luminary
of the st. Louis Convention--not as
candidate himself-not even as a
delegate. He was there simply as a
reporter, in the press gallery, yet his
inspiring presence could not be
dimmed. Is it not about time that
the st. Louis Republic, which is the
only big daily in Missouri that claims
to be Democratic, should take some
purgatives and get itself in shape to

Francis Nelson of England, in a re-

ing, cooking, baking and preserving,
cleaning, laundering, mending and
pressing, sewing and first aid.
Marriage is the hardest way theLe-
is Of earning ones living" Marriage
is an occupation, Mrs. Nelson there
fore argues, and wives ought to be
paid wages.
The above list, however, suggests
that marriage is ten occupations and
the question flashes, Ought wife
to draw a salary for each?"
If not, which employments should
be eliminated altogether?
Or would it be wise to throw
few extras in for good measure?
Or should they be paid for by the
, piece, so much for a new baby, so
much for nursing Johnny through
the measles, so much for canning
the. tomatoes, and so much for the
Christmas bother?
Or should employment be grouped,
as any two Tor 80 week, OF 90O d
month for half a dozen assorted?
This subject never gets tiresome,
because discussions about money
cause a large per cent Of divorces
and most of those marital troubles
which make pay day look like ma
tionaI calamity in many home.
But no matter how much it is dis
cussed, it, never gets settled because
nobody has been able to answer
questions like the above, while any
body can add a dozen occupations
to the list. In fact, that is just the
trouble. When a wife starts out to
compute the worth Of her services
she treats each household art as if
it we're quite unrelated to any other,
and as if she were compelled to carry
all Of them on every day of her life.

Child bearing is, of course, a spe-
cialty, but who is brave enough to
set a price on it? The mother who
can. do so certainly ought to have her
money for she is not qualified to ap-
preciate the finer rewards of mater
nifty.
Wages for wives? Wages for hus-
bands are not enough to include a
fair salary for a devoted wife and
mother. The best men know this,
the best wives never think about
wages at all.
But all men are not good-to some
a wife is a slave. And some excel
lent women who wouldn't think of
questioning a husbands honesty,
never let their husband open their
own pay nevelepes-which is slavery
for him.
Wages will never reconcile a wife
to scrubbing floors. - Taking the
cooking out of the kitchen Will not
satisfy any women who believes
marriage is the hardest way of earn
ing a living. Living in a family ho-
tel never yet stopped domestic dis
sensions.
Finances never yet made trouble
between a man and a Woman-Who
1--we each other. What the sad mar
rage world needs is not wages for
wives, but more ideal love.
