served that he took him off the Tolls
Just before his last campaign for re-
election, and put him back again as
soon as he had been safely reelected,
and he is today drawing the salary as
a clerk Of Tillman's committee. And
this is the man who denounces other
men who have by their efforts and
highly developed technical skill risen
to be masters in their trades, and not
from holding Office, or lecturing for
pay and making a commodity OF racI
hatred. But Inconsistency is a Demo
cratic quality. AT hearing recently
before the Senate committee on inter-
state commerce w. W. Kitchin, ex'
governor of North Carolina, a brother
OF the ways and means chairman and
House leader Claud Kitchin, appeared
in the behalf of the mill owners in the
South and expressed his opinion that
the eight hour bill limiting the hours
of labor for children of tender years
was ruinous legislation to the cotton
mill industry. How long do you
think that children should be. required
to labor each day?" inquired Senator
Pomerene. in our mill-the model
mil lof the South-they work eleven
hours day." replied the representa-
tive of the southern millmen, the
Democratic politician.
And yet there has been perfect
fusillade from the Democrats in Con-
gress against the way labor is treated
in the steel industry at Bethlehem and
eight hours a day has been fixed as a
limit for mechanics and other sturdy
specimens Of labor in the steel mills
The consistent Democrats would work
childgen of ages from six to eleven for
a period OF eleven hours each day, and
then proclaim themselves friends Of
humanity and the New Freedom
And Tillman who has been denouncing
the steel employers for mistreatine
labor, and has imposed upon them the
eight hour law, is a persistent defend
err of the mill system Of the South and
is trying to defeat the eight hour bill
which would prevent working of chill
dren more than eight hours day.

The True Story,

Beneath the friction. probably tenn
porary, between President Wilson and
his party colleagues in Congress is an
other disgraceful page in the diplo'
matte history Of this country. Briefly
it is as follows: Having caused his
friends widely to advertise his "diplo.
matte victory" over Germany in the
Lusitania case, Mr.. Wilson found thai
he could achieve no victory whatever
and that Germany positively refused tc
disavow the sinking OF that ship. He
then, In desperate effort to make
good his advertised victory caused
Secretary Lansing to suggest that In
return for Germanys yielding on that
point the United States would propose
to the allied powers such alteration OF
international law as would deprive
merchant ships, armed solely for self
defense, OF their rights and privileges
as merchant ships, and to intimate fur
Their that should Germany determine
to treat merchant ships, so armed. as
vessels Of war, subject to attack with
out warning, the United States would
acquiesce.
The allied powers promptly reject
ed this extraordinary proposition
Senator Root made his now famous
speech, Senator Sterling introduced
his resolution citing two former dec
larations by this administration, dated
September and November, 1914, re-
spectively, each asserting unequivocal'
ly that merchant ships, when armed
for self-defense, did not thereby lose
their character of merchant ships, AMI
Mr.. Wilson realized that his propose
to Germany was untenable and unhes
itatingly repudiated it.
Meanwhile. however Count vor
Bernstorff, tho German ambassador
had communicated to his government
the proposal OF the president, and tn
German foreign office had encouraged
the German people to believe that TIL
policy OF sinking without warning
merchant ships armed for self-defens,
would be adopted. The elation OF TIN
German foreign office and its convic
ton that henceforward such friction
as might exist would be between tn
United States and the allied power
we're unmistakable.
Since President Wilson has reversed
himself, fatty and without apology
the indignation of Germany naturall
knows no bounds, and 1t Is the exten
of this indignation which leads timor
Gus members Of Congress to believ
that II Mr.. Wilson does not aga
change his mind there will be wal
More conservative members Of Con
gress, however. while deploring tn
fact that the administration has see
fit to play politics-and tricky, under
hand politics at that-wlth the ma
tons foreign relations, are convince
that Germany cannot afford to go
war with the United States, and equa
ly, that the United States cannot a
: ford to play the craven, irrespectiv
of the bad faith OF its chief executive

Politics and Prenoredness.

The nations foreign relations are
not the only momentous interest Of the
country with which President Wilson
has been playing politics, according to
experts on the subject OF military pre-
paredness, Representative Fred A.
Britten, OF Illinois, and Henry Reuter-
dahl. the naval expert, have done much
to expose the trickery Of Mr.. Wilson
and OF his lieutenant, Josephus Dam
iels, in this respect, while, over and
over again, In their testimony before
the naval committees, officers have
been forced to admit that at the very
time the president was stamping the
country, ostensibly in the interest OF
preparedness, Daniels was cutting es-
Inmates, suppressing facts, refusing 10
consult the experts and manipulating
the naval program for political ends.
Tho fve-year program is a sham
and an insult to the intelligence Of the
American public" said Mr.. Reuter-
dahl in a speech in which he branded
Daniels as the greatest obstacle to
the development OF the navy 1.-THE
president, on the other hand, is as
sorting there is an emergency and that
we need the greatest navy in the
world. and his lieutenant, on the
other, is slashing estimates, asking
for no emergency provisions. muzzling
navy officers and pitching the recon-
mendations into their waste-basket.
Are they sincere? Draw your own
conclusions" said Representative Brit
ten. "The landlubber and the patron
age-monger is in full control OF the
navy department" said Mr.. Reuter-
dahl, "and the political influences In
Congress dictate the navy's destiny"
Mr.. Britten cited the case OF Ad-
miral Fiske, "the navy's greatest STRAIT
egist," sent away from the navy de-
partment and from Washington be-
cause he told the truth to Congress
about the navy's condition. truth
which could not but expose Daniels's
inefiiciency and worse. Mr.. Britten
further scored Daniels for his with
drawal OF navy ships from Tampico,
when he left hundreds Of American
citizens at the peril OF a Mexican mob,
from which they were rescued only by
the valor and consideration of German
and English naval commanders, after
the American battleships had fled.
Hardly day passes that does not
lead to some exposure OF Daniels's UNI
mitigated untltness.

Democrats and Labor.

Democratic disposition to destroy
an American industry where they may
find it, has been demonstrated in the
action Of the Senate committee on
naval affairs in voting to appropriate
eleven million dollars for a govern
ment armor plant, under the lead Of
Tillman Of South Carolina, who ad-
dressed the representatives of the
steel industry, who appeared before
his committee as robbers" BY so do
ing they will render an investment Of
private capital OF twenty millions II
