DEMOCRATS AND MOOSE

TINE efforts of Democrats to line up
the Progressives for WILSON are
as obvious as they are futile.
The Democrats are quite content to
have the poor old Bull Moose burn his
feet dragging the Wilsonian chestnuts
out of the fire, and beyond that there
is no interest of Democrats in the Pro-
gressives. From the national chair
man down they are shedding tears
over the endorsement of Hughes by
Roosevelt and his friends. Wilson is
the result of q split in the Repub-
lican party. If that split had been
continued Wilson might have been re-
elected this year. 1t is the conviction
that the Democratic national ticket has
no hope in the face of united Repub-
lican party that is causing Democrats
to do all in their power to win Pro-
gressives over to their free trade,
un-American program.

DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN PLANS

d EPUBLICANs may take increas-
IN ed courage from the campaign
plans of the Democrats. These
may be outlined in three phrases-rec-
ognition of the merits of the foreign
policies of President Wilson; political
reforms, with special reference to the
popular election of Senators; an ap-
peal to the business interests of the
country by reference to the currency
measure, proposed anti-dumping leg
islation, and, over and above all, our
''unexampled prosperity" They will
soft pedal on the tariff.
Mr.. Hughes can see little to fear in
a Democratic appeal based on Presi-
dent Wilson's foreign policies" First,
because the country as a whole has
been against war, and second, because
Wilson's vacillations have tended more
than anything else to draw us into the
European maelstrom, while his Mexi-
can muddle has put a stain on this
country which will require years to
erase.
Republicans are confident that an
appeal by the Democrats to the busi-
ness interests of the country will avail
little. Every businessman knows that
business was depressed before the war.
and that a $3.50, 100000 favorable
trade balance secured to us during
twenty months of European war has
done everything to pull business out of
the hole and give US 'unexampled
prosperity" of a transitory kind He
knows that the currency law was bas-
ed on Investigations made by a Re-
publican commission, and that Repub-
lican amendments made its operation
practicable.
AS for the anti-dumping clause, it is
pointed out that any such clause would
be utterly valueless working in con-
junction with a near free-trade tariff
law such as we now have. There would
for instance, to unload goods on the
American market at prices cheaper
than those prevailing in Germany, for
the reason that with her extremely
low labor cost. Germany could pay the
I
insignificant duties assessed on her
exports to us under the present law,
and then capture the American mar
ket, after which the prices would be
raised. No anti-dumping law could
be framed without provoking reprisals
absolutely destructive of our foreign
trade, which could be applied to a
country selling goods here as cheaply
as in the country of origin.
Nor can the Democratic party make
much capital out of its so-called politi-
cal reforms Republicans call atten-
ton to the fact that the popular cleo
tion of Senators was provided for in
1912, the House of Representatives at
that time having a Democratic ma
jority, while the Senate was Republi-
can. The Rucker joint resolution sub

THE SOLDIER VOTE

NTHER States may be in doubt as
" to the right of their soldiers at
the border to vote at the coming
elections-but not so Pennsylvania.
The State Constitution makes that very
clear. Our soldiers are entitled to cast
their ballots at the border the same
as though they were at home. This
is as it should be. No time should be
lost in making the proper preparations.
1t would be shameful if by any chance
these men, hundreds of miles from
home on public duty, should lose the
right of franchise.

so doing. 49,
All told the Democratic campaign

Harrisburg telegraph. [volume] (Harrisburg, Pa.) 1879-1948, 1916-07-14

In the opinion of many of the
best constitutional authorities the
amendment of the House would alb
solutely leave the Congress of the
United States helpless to make in
quiry into the election of a Senator
in any manner whatever. The last
Congress passed a publicity bill in
which the amount that might be
expended by or for a candidate for
the Senate of the United States was
expressly limited to a sum definite
and certain. 1t would seem pos
sible that under the proposed
amendment as presented by the
House no bill of that sort could be
passed and Congress would have
no authority to Inquire into or to
limit the amount of money that
might be expended in an election.
To deprive the Congress of the
United States of the power to say
whether or not member of either
body of its Congress had been cor
ruptly elected is striking at the
very root of the legislative branch
of our Government.
