Republican Inefficiency.

The reason of Republican inefficien-
cy is clear. Republican government
was not truly representative. The
congress elected in 1908 did not try to
serve the popular interest; it served
special interests. 1t took orders from
Wall street from the wool growers.
the wool manufacturers, the steel
barons, the coal-land sharks-always
from the few and in the interest of
the few. In legislating for its real
masters, the special interests, 1t was
always held back by fear of the popu-
lar wrath which finally overwhelmed
the Taft administration in 1912. Az
a result, it was satisfactory neither to
it's friends nor to its enemies.

Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo, Aug. 12.-A three day conference of the Ma tional Womans' party was concluded here today and leaders tonight were departing for various points in the twelve suffrage states to carry out campaign plans, outlined at the final session. Active opposition to the ma tional administration for failure to pass the national suffrage amendment. was the chief task assigned to the workers. National officers instructed the organizers and speakers that the election policy of the party was essen tially one of opposition to the re-elec- ton of democratic candidates.
 Late today the veteran equal sui frage campaigners were breaking in" young and inexperienced workers at street meetings. Under the direction of Mrs. St Clair Thompson of North Carolina, a number of young women made their debut as public speakers. A few were visibly -flustered as they termed it. but for the most part the addresses were delivered fluently and with considerable oratorical effect. Among those who addressed street crowds from automobiles were Miss Margery Ross, Pennsylvania; Miss Sarah Grant, Minnesota; Miss Mary Gertrude Kendall, Maryland; Miss Katherine Taylor, New York; Miss Clara Rowe Montana; Miss Hazel Hunkins, Colorado, and Miss Iris Calderhead.
