THE calibre of the Republicans already offer

for Democratic success, next August
THE tardy conversion of the President to the
need of Tariff Commission would listen
better if an election we're not SO near.

L'IRST picture Of the moon was taken by

WHEN the President lugs the word scien-
w tife into the controversy, he must havn
in mind the manner in which business has beee
put on the bum.
WITH not single Republican on any of the
w Commissions so far appointed by the
President it is easy to figure out the personnel
of Tariff Commission of his selection
N TT WILL be a long time before the country re-
covers from the effects of Democratic tink-

are synonymous, and there is no doubt that the
people are now fully aware of that fact.

TN TRYING to please everybody the Presl-
dent is pleasing nobody, and ne IS just De-
ginning to find it out.
GARRISON resigned because ne couldn't nave
" his own way. 1t would fine be if the Presl-
dent should follow suit.
THE more the President tries to explain his
changes of mind the more skeptlcal the
people are as to his having one.
THE evidence accumulating against Mr.. BRAN

garding his fitness for the Supreme Bench
TT THE conditions are such that the UNDER

revenue, the law ought to be changed to fit con-

COME two years of the workings of the pres
y ent tariff law seem to have convinced the
President that something more is needed than
we have.
WHEN the Democrats went into power, they
w said they knew all about the tariff. 1t is

EDITORIAL PARAGRAPHS

THE President may know what ne wants, but
the thing that's rubbing him is how to get
them.
WITH $4,000 school houses and no money
w to pay expenses, the school children seem
to be up against it.

L the August election are carried out, some
bodys neck will be found in sling
MUCH attention should be paid to Republican
lV1 ideas on preparedness, as that party is to
carry out the plans and find the money.
WHAT is most needed is Commission that
w will put some coin into the Treasury in
stead of one that will further deplete it.
DEMAND for tickets to the next Democratic
II convention has broken all records. Isn't
it from desire to see Mr.. BRYAN perform?
IF THE President according to the Nashville
L Banner, keeps on learning as fast as ne has
in the past few months, he will have to change
all Of his policies.
WITH record unparalleled for gymnastic
w AipAops in legislation, the next Demo
cratic platform is awaited with eagerness, not
unmixed with curiosity.
THE next Democratic platform should not be
L written until about twenty minutes before
it is presented to the convention, for WOODROW
is liable to change his mind
TT IS matter of speculation whether the
Presidents bride is to be congratulated or
condoled with because he did not change his
mind before the knot was tied.
THE reduction of the tax rate, last July, from
L $2.35 to $l.o5 sounded fine at the time,
but the condition of the county treasury sug-
gests the usual Democratic hot air.
TN FIGHTING the railroads, Mr.. Moon is
fighting the interests of those who depend
on these same railroads for service that en-
ables them to do business at profit.
THE trouble with many of those who are at
tempting to criticize Col. ROOSEVELT is that
they haven't a clear idea of what they are try
ing to say and less of one as to expression.
CAID the President: rDo you want the situa-
- ton to be such that all the President can
do IS to write messages and utter words OF pro-
test?" No; we didn't want it, but, unfortun-
ately, we have it. The thing to do, now, is to
make preparations to change this condition.
