The Real Work.
The real work broke in after,
,vernor Ferguson of Texas


thirty minutes in which to present it.
The plank offered by the minority
was:
The Democratic party always has
stood for the sovereignty of the sew
eral States in the control and regula-
ton of elections. We reafhTm the
historic positions of our party in this
regard and favor the continuance OF
that wise provision of the federal
constitution which vests in the sew
eral States of the union the power to
prescribe the qualifications of their
electors"
Besides Governor Ferguson the re-
port was signed by former Represen-
tatiye Bartlett of Georgia; James R
Nugent of New Jersey, and Stephen
B. Fleming of Fort Wayne, Ind.
The burden of Governor Ferguson's
argument was that suffrage being
purely a States right question, the
wording of the majorityis plank was
presumptuous recommendation t
the State on how to conduct theil
celebrates.

Piled With Questions.

Anti-suffrage delegates on the floor
piled the governor with questions,
which brought out fresh arguments
against the administration plank.
When Ferguson had finished the con-
vention was in confusion and the tone
of the uproar in the delegate sections
was indicative of sympathy with the
opponents of the majority plank.
When Senator Stone took the
speakers place to defend the plank
he was bombarded with a running
fire of questions and arguments from
delegates on the floor, which even
tually exhausted the time allotted to
him.
Anti-suffrage delegates loudly chal-
lenged his references to Ferguson's
statements with cries Of: "That's not
what he said" and "That's not fair"
Many delegates openly took the posi-
ton that the question was becoming
much confused by the manner of its
presentation. Finally Senator Stone

Better Than G.. O. P.


The suffrage leaders considered it
a much more favorable declaration
than they got from the Republican
convention at Chicago. They threw
all their force behind it and won the
support of the administration leaders,
who were found fighting for them
when danger threatened.
Hagg ID and worn from an all
night session, the platform makers
were not ready with their report until
after noon, when Senator Stone,
sleepless for more than thirty hours,
took the speakers stand and, explain
ing that he was too tired to read the
document, gave over this task to SEN
ators Walsh of Montana, and Hollis
of New Hampshire. They alternated
in reading the long declaration.
The fight on the suffrage plank
was in the air. Everybody was key
ed up to it, and when, at the conclu-
sion of the reading Of the platform,
Martin Lomasney of Boston, a dele
gate, claimed the attention of the
chair, it was thought he was open
ing the fight, and it was several min
utes before the shouts of approval
and cries of disapproval could he
stilled sufficiently to hear that he
wanted to put the convention on rec
ord as sympathizing with "the peo-
pie of Ireland"

delegate, and the convention hail

"HE DIDN'T DO RIGHT"

the lack Of Democratic nominee to

the railroad dispute. He didn't do

The railroad controversy has intro
duced moral issue into the campaign.
Mr.. Wilson sacrificed principle to ex-
pediency, or what he judges to be eX-
pediency, when he tamely surrendered
to the demands Of the train-service
brotherhoods. u
He put his own personal and party
need before the public good. He angl-

at the tried and tested arbitration
method of settling differences.

to have exclaimed to the railroad man.

were bent on their rule-Or-ruin pro-

"He didn't do right" The conscious
ness of that fact is sinking deep into
the American mind.
"He didn't do right" That wide
spread conviction will cost him thou

"He didn't do right" He preferred
the weak, the timid attitude of the

The American people like courage.
They like convictions. They like a
man who has the courage Of his con-
victions. They like a man who is
willing to risk consequences for the

WHY let him handle the millions that
are to be spent on the new navy?
Judging by the signs of War Depart

cunningly arranging to bring the

them to vote for Mr.. Hughes
A train of thought on one-track
mind has to be composed of shuttle

Three years ago Woodrow Wilson
was explaining that hard times were
psychological, but he isn't trying to
squirm out of responsibility for the
present prosperity.
The disaster to the Memphis caused
very little excitement, Americans be

If ELECTION WERE OvER7
While Democrats Are Admittedly the
Champion Question Fiends, it is
Believed This Quiz is as I'm
answerabIe as Their Most
ChiIdIike Effort.

If election day were passed would
President Wilson make so little of the
principle of arbitration in Industrial
disputes? Would he be so sure tHat
1t is more important to preserve peace,
when a great strike is threatened, than
it is to make judicial methods rather
than force the means of settling diff
ferences between capital and labor?
If election day had come and gone
would Mr. Wilson keep the national
guardSmen of the country in camp on
the ground that they may be needed
Mexico? Would there be months of
inaction and indecision in which no
use is made Of large body of citizen
soldiers? Would they not be allowed
to go home or else be set in motion to
make Mexico as safe d neighbor as the
Administration seems to think that it
is already?
If election day were past would the
President drive through Congress a
bill like the shipping bill which is in
tended to embark the federal govern
ment upon a new venture in hazard
Gus field and use $50,000,0O0 of the
peoples money to buy tonnage held
above its normal value or else so
owned that it cannot be used without
peril of international complications?
Is sound public policy behind such
a measure or only campaign politics?
If election day were not to be con
sidered would Woodrow Wilson use
so many high and mighty words. in
International notes and do SO little to
make them mean anything practical?
Would his deeds lag SO far behind his
phrases ?-Cleveland Leader -, -.

American citizens.
The fact that Mr.. Wilson could en-
dorse this Pork Congress shows that
he isn't seasick, anyway.
Me Pinchot also seems of the opin-
Ion that God Hates a Gutter.
The man who quotes the Baltimore
platform is regarded as political
archeologist.
"He kept the country out of war;"
but he robbed it Of its peace.
Up in Maine they are now rhyming
Hughes with Moose. And there is rea-
son as well as rhyme connecting the
two words.
"Victory," Mr. Fairbanks told Okla
homa Republicans, "surely will perch
on our banner" But Champ Clark tied
it up in a heater and more compact
bundle when he said: '"They licked hell
out of u.s.
Members of President Wilson's cabi
net are ready to do anything to re-elect'
their chief, except resign.
Writes a former Princeton man: "At
first we called him wv. W.; then we
made it T. w. W."
That one term plank in the Demo
cratic platform of 1912-it Is more than
likely to hold. after all.
When President Wilson called upon
the Mexican commissioners at New
London he revived old presidents, but
did he wave the Stars and Stripes?
A man in Washington has made a
bust of the President, thus anticipat-
ing Mr.. Hughes by several weeks.
Discussing the lndorselnenC Oy the
Democratic convention of Texas of
Mr.. Wilson's Mexican policy, the
Houston Post DEM fatty declares:
''It is not believed anything like ma
jority of the people of Texas indorse
our Mexican policy, and those in a
position to know seriously doubt that
the platform adopted expressed the
real sentiments of the convention It,

The Omaha Bee couples woeful
waste with watchful waiting as a

policy was that he had good inten-
