Republican Corruption
The shocking disclosure of the Law
ish use of money by aspirants for
the Republican nomination for the
highest office in the gift of the people
has created painful impression
throughout the country. Viewed in con.
nection with the recent conviction OF
republican senator from the state Or
Michigan for the criminal transgres-
sion Of the law limiting the expend-
lures on behalf of a candidate of the
United States senate, it indicates the
re-entry under republican auspice-
OF money as an influential factor In
elections, thus nulifying the letter ami
Haunting the spirit of numerous laws,
enacted by the people, to protect the
ballot from the contamination of cor.
rupt practices. We deplore those de
linquencies and invoke their stern
popular rebuke, pledging our earnest
efforts to a Strengthening of the pres
ent statutes against corrupt practices
and their rigorous enforcement.
We remind the people that 1t was
only by the return of a republican
senator in Michigan who is now under
conviction and sentence for the Grim
inal misuse of money in his election
that the present organization of the
senate with a republican majority was
made possible.

Mexican Problem
The administration, remembering al.
ways that Mexico is an independent
nation and that with permanent sta
bility in her government and her in
stitutiops could come only from the
consent of her own people to a gov
ernment of their own making, has
been unwilling either to profit by the
misfortunes of the people of Mexico
or to enfeeble their future by imposing
from the outside a rule upon their
temporarily distracted councils. AS ,a

its ability permanently to maintain
law and order signified its willingness
to meet its international obligations
and written upon its statute books
