The Voice of the PEOPLE

Santa Ana (Cal.) Evening Blade
The Presidents record is the real plat
form of the Democratic party, and his
record is n of financial failure.
Kearney (Neb.) Hub. There is
nothing remarkable in the refusal of
the bull moose nominee for vice-presi-
dent, John P. Parker, of Louisiana, to
follow Roosevelt into the Republican
fold, simply because Parker is an in
surgent Democrat and vas never a
Republican.
Little Falls (Minn.) Transcript.-It
is a thai more than seventeen thou
sand offices have been created by the
Wilson administration. Surely, this is
a government of the Democrats for
the Democrats n by the Democrats.
Pocatello Cdaho) Tribune. - Status
of Mexican affairs is serious enough,
it is true. But If any overt act occurs,
it doesn't make much difference. They
can take our mote" for it.
Woodsfield (Ohio) Republican.-At
last the Washington authorities have
placed an embargo on the shipping of
munitions into Mexico. After the
usual practice of our "watchful wait
ing" diplomats, the embargo has come
three years too late. 1t should have
been applied at the time when Wilson
was lightheartedly supplying the
northern rebels with arms and powder
to fight the government of Huerta.
Wilson's personal feelings toward the
dead dictator have brewed a peck of
trouble for this country.

Second Choice Voting
(Neu vorL r;noasN .

NEW York TimeS).
Let Reform have her perfect work.
She is getting near it in the state of
Washington, which rejoices in second
choice voting. The Tacoma Ledger
paints the delightful prospect in King
county, which has 200 voting ma
chimes, and fears that they will break
down from overwork, to say nothing
of the voters. If. for instance, there
are four candidates for any office,
since a voter must give his first choice
to one and his second to one of the
remaining three. the machine must
have IL name cards. each with two
names. Each candidates name would
b on the same card with each Of the
other three candidates, three times as
first choice and three times as sec
ond." Vague "reminiscences of early
troubles with organizations and COM
binations" are called up by the fasci-
mating problems which the voters and
machines of the Seattle Congress Dis
trict must face There are nine can
didates for the Republican nomina-
ton, consequently there will be 70
combinations of names and 70 name
plates. But in this maze of eombina-
tons only the boldest will wish to
wander further.

Labor's Plan
buffalo Expressl

Statesmen, economists, fnanciers,
businessmen generally r giving
serious thought these days to the
conditions that are going to exist in
European countries particularly after
the war. The biggest problems of the
age are going to present themselves
for solution. And it is generally rec
ognized that these problems must be
solved; that it won't do to push them
to one side for a more convenient
season. These problems are economic,
political, social. They have to do
with the nations, with trade and COM
merce and with the people.
Naturally labor organizations feel
themselves vitality concerned in these
conditions. In September the British
Trades Union Congress will meet.
Some program will be laid before
that body. 1t is said that resolutions
will call for a compulsory trade union
membership, a compulsory 4S-hour
week for all trades, a minimum wage
of 80 shillings for all adult workers
and q state unemployment wage sys-
tenn for everyone. To meet the cost
of the war the following proposals
are advanced: A heavier graduated
taxation on large incomes. a special
tax on land values, a graduated tax
alton on capital. the naturalization
of railways, mines, shipping, banking
and insurance and the CONSUMPTION of
wealth.

Those Danish Islands
philadelphia Inquirer. ]

When it was announced that the adj
ministration a negotiated a treaty
with Denmark for the purchase of the
Stands which that country possesses
in the West Indies the public was given
to understand that Danish sentiment
favored this transaction with a near
approach to unanimity. 1t is therefore
surprising to learn of the opposition to
the project which has developed in the
Rigsdag, and still more surprising is
the speech in which the Minister of
Finance championed the sale. He as
serted with much emphasis that the
proposed transaction involved inter-
national consideration of a momen-
tous character and he intimated that
its rejection would precipitate a serious
political crisis. Then the Minister of
Finance asked what would Denmark
do if the United States calmly appro-
priated its insular belongings? Would
1t declare war or appeal to Europe?
His conclusion was that while the gov
eminent regretted lowering it's colors,
it felt bound to submit to the desire of
a great State because when a hurri-
cane was blowing one had to run be-
fore it. All this is in the last degree
bewildering and mysterious. The Fin
ance Minister'S attitude is om--
nously~ suggestive. No other in
ference can be drawn from his re-
marks as they have been reported
thar that in the matter of the islands
the Danish government has been sub
jected to ONE kind of moral duress or
coercion by the Wilson administration.
What other construction can be placed
upon his statement hat his govern
ment felt bound to submit to the de-
sire of a great State?"

The faith that stands on authority
Is not tdith.-EMERsoN.
POOR X

TINE Democratic administration is
Il following the course of the
Cleveland administration closely.
First unheard of extravaganza in ap-
preparations, then the levying of new
and direct taxes to meet growing
deficiencies, then the raising of money
for current expenses by the issue of
bonds and f~inally-defeat at the polls
in November.
The Democrats have prepared a
statement blaming the proposed bond
issue On the call of the troops to the
Mexican border and the chase after
Villa. But had they not passed their
tremendous pork barrel" bills during
the past foul years and had they not
made places for hundreds of new
ONCE holders at fat salaries, there
would be no need now for the pro-
posed bond issue.
1t was charged against the Cleve-
land administration that Democrats
could not run the government with
out issuing bonds to cover current ex-
penses, and the present instance makes
1t appear that this charge was war
ranted and is applicable to the Wilson
administration.

An Unhxed Quantity

President Wilson discloses in his
campaign plans his customary fxity of
purpose. At n time he was deter
mined to let his record speak for him.
At another he planned to sit on the
porch of Shadow Lawn and write notes
to friends and opponents. Again he
would cross the continent on the trail
of Mr.. Hughes. Now he is undecided
as to this scheme, owing, it is alleged,
to VeXation arising from the prema-
ture disclosure of his decision; but he
retains the privilege of changing his
program.
In these revisions of unalterable
purposes, revolving themselves at last
into an unyielding determination to
adhere to no resolution, Mr.. Wilson
exhibits once more the curious lack of
stability that has so often baffed and
mystitied his friends. He will and he
won't; in Mexico, in transactions with
other foreign powers, in national de-
Tense, in problems from trivial to
grave, the project seriously put for
ward to-day is upset by the impulse of
tomorrow.

THAT n DEAL

T United STATES Senators are JUS
u titled in asking Secretary Of State
Lansing for particulars concern
ing the Danish island deal. Even for
the wealthy United States, the price
of SIS, 900 asked for the islands is
a tidy sun which we cannot afford to
throw away, especially since the
islands might have been had some
years back for $1,000 600.
Just why we are asked to make
this purchase at a time when the
treasury is not only empty, but when
Democrats are considering bond issues
to make ends meet requires an expla-
nation. Doubtless, the islands would
be very useful to US as a naval base,
but are they needed n more now
than they have been at any time since
the Panama Canal was started? Is
there any danger that they will fall
into the hands of some secret enemy =?
Hardly, in the face of the racket Den
mark is making over the proposal to
sell to the United States.
If the deal was by
brokers interested in getting a big
slice of the purchase price as their
commission, then Congress ought to
know it. The United States needs no
broker. It can conduct its own pur-
chases and sales. We have need for
every penny we can scrape together.
This Danish island deal must not be
used to increase the riches of some in
ternational real estate syndicate.

The Hughes Offensive
TRQcfnu Ira Snrinf

IIN0tOH tPNI
The Hughes offensive has already
achieved several significant results. 1t
has focused public attention upon the
shortcomings in the record of the ad-
m~inistration and upon the hypocrisy
of its catch phrases. 1t has drawn
the fire of the administration in an at
tempt at defense. refuted its denials
with documentary evidence and driven
Mr.. Wilson to a confession that he
now intends to take the stump in an
effort to answer the attacks of his OPP
ponent. II is too early to measure the
full force Of the Hughes offensive, for
during his first week he has only be-
gun to fight. 1t Is easy, however, to
see the sort of defense Mr.. Wilson in
tends to offer. An administration of
pretentious incompetency will seek re-
election by ~resorting to a campaign of
apologize defense.

CLARK's CONCESSIONS

CPEAKER CHAMP CLARK who
y would now be President Clark if
Bryan had not ~disobeyed the in
structions he got from the people of
Nebraska, made a great concession to
Republican tariff policies in a speech
in the House recently. Among other
things he said: 81 could take this tariff
schedule Inc so arrange it that the
American people will not have to pay
n more than they are paying and
at the same time the government
would receive twice as much as we are
getting now"
II the American people pay no
more, but the government gets twice
as much. who pays the increase?
Necessarily the foreigner. That is
Just exactly what Republicans have
always contended-that the foreigner
pays a large part of the tariff on goods
shipped into this country. That this
was true was demonstrated in 1913.
when the Democrats reduced the
duties, but did not reduce the cost of
living. If removal of the duty did not
reduce the cost of living. then no
burden was lifted from the American
citizen. The tax was taken off the
foreigner--not off the American.
1t is absolutely true that revenue
from the tariff can be greatly increased
without making American citizens pay
