Major General Leonard Wood and
Governor Frank o. Lowden in a dead
lock. 1t was 5:15 before any message

Lowden long way from the neces-
sary 493 votes necessary to nomi-

The latest spasm on government
ownership is Senate Bill No. 1890, pro-
mulgated by the war department The
measure aims to create federal cor
poration for the purpose of engaging
in developing electric power plants,
manufacture of fertilizer, and for
many other purposes in the discretion
of the corporation. The capital stock
proposed, to be owned exclusively by
the government. would include $12,-
100000 of per cent preferred stock
and common stock of no par value.
No dividends would be mandatory.
The corporation would be exempt
from all federal, state and local tax
alton. The bill sounds more like a
kids dream, and surely was designed
by some freak senator down South
No, We do not need legislation like
this. The inefficiency of the postal
department. with the dispatching of
all classes of mail, should be suffi-

road workers. Now he goes little
further. He wants to take over con.
troll of credit capital and have it ad-
ministered by a political commission
That would probably be the end OF
credit capitals. But how is Mr.. Com.
pers going to find Republican and
Democratic candidates for congress
who will make themselves eligible for
Endorsement by rejecting their own
party platforms and accepting this
credit capital plank? How many Re
publican and Democratic candidates
for congress will promise to support
the Plumb plan?
Herein lies the logical absurdity of
the Gompers plan Of campaign. He
wants to control votes in congress.
But he SHES at trying to elect candi-
dates who believe enough in his pol
icies to advocate them directly and to
cut loose from all other party associ-
ations-New York Tribune.

THE GoMPERs PLAN

Mr.. Gompers continues to pursue
his ingenious policy of ending either
Republican or Democratic control of
congress by electing Republican and
Democratic senators and repre-
sentatives who will accept, on the
side, Gompers program. This may
be labor-saving method, and in
Mr.. Gompers eyes it may have the
merit of avoiding direct appeal to
the voters to approve the Gompers'
theories.
The chief of the American FEEDER
alton of Labor denounces the two
major parties in congress for mis-
governing the country and oppress-
ing labor. The people who labor are
in vast majority in the United
States. If they unite they can con-
troll congress and write their own
ideas into legislation. But Mr..
Gompers knows as well as anybody
else that his political conceptions
are not in harmony with those of a
majority of the voters, or even with
those of plurality. Otherwise he
would organize a labor party here,
as the labor leaders in other coun-
tries have done, and accept the re-
sponsibility which goes with organ
lied political activity. His plan in
stead is to conduct a guerrilla war

tives of other parties. pledging non

evils created by the open saloon were
so destructive. that it will come hard
to persuade the people to return to
