SAN FRANCIsCo's COUP.

San Francisco seems to have been the first
city to thoroughly take advantage OF great
national convention and capitalize 1t fully by
making a friend OF every man and woman who
it's guest. The long. weary convention
held on the shore OF the Pacific was calculated
to arouse only wild desire to get away from
the OF the acrimonious struggle. Yet
practically every delegate or visitor who was
there left singing praises OF Frisco,
why?
simply because Frisco was decent. Because
Frisco was indeed host OF delightful parts,
AS prices were before the convention thou
sands approached so they remained through
out their visit.
There was no gouging. Guests in Frisco
paid for everything precisely what Frisco cit
accustomed to paying. No hotel rates
were advanced No taxicab prices increased;
nor the price OF tavorite smokes, cafos
other necessities.
This had all the novelty that surprise al
ways has. Thousands attended the convention
at Frisco that attended the convention at Chi
cago that have attended conventions for years
And the difference was marked, uneXpect-
cd and pleasing. that Frisco, the ideal host
was given a million dollars free advertising.
II was worth crossing the continent to find
community like that. In Chicago S. rooms
went to $40 then to $40 a day, The blue sky
tho limit with everybody In Chicago--from
hotel managers down to the vendors of cigar
cites and cigars, Chicago did not make a single
friend among the thousands who sweated and
froze alternately during the two weeks shak-
ing down,

A DEFEATIST PLATFORM.

That staunch democratic daily. Tho San
Francisco Examiner calls the democratic plat
form "A dofoatist program" and In opening lis
biting editorial Of condemnation II quotes our
own Col Robert l.. owen. Says the Examiner:
Senator owen Of oklahoma. n progressive
stalwart In the democratic party, declares
that the democrats cannot win unless they
place their colorB In the hands or pro-
grcasivo man, to take the curse off from
their reactionary, Bourbon platform.
Senator owen did not say take Off the
curse of wisconsin, because he was a cam
dldate for president himself and does not
care to mako enemies OF the Wilson office
holders IN control Of tho convention.
But nevertheless, It Is true that no one
can win as the nominee OF the democratic
party who is not capable Of throwing the
platform that the convention adopted over
board and making his own public record
and promises a more advanced platform,
Not since the slave power releascb con-
troll OF tho democratic party fifty years ago
has the democratic platform been so In
solenty rcactionary 80 boldly In the In
terests of the profteer. the exploiter and
the privilege seeker.
The farmer in the country. the workman
In the cities. the soldier and the great con
suming middle class have all been insuitcd
and fouted by the wilsonzed Federal Of
ficeholders who controlled tho convention
and wrote the platform.
There Is nothing in the platform except
a string OF euphemistic synonyms of Mark
Hannas famous declaration. we stand
pat"
1t In doubtful II anybody of sane mind
representing a great political party ever
presented such dcfcatiat program
guilty of such political sabotage, ever
sought to complete the suicide OF their
party for end so ignoble.
Charles s. Barnett, the president OF the
. largest organization Of farmers In the
world, denounces the convention and its
platform as rank political treason.
We can admit that the ticket finally chosci
reasonably meets the requirements OF Col
owen and tho Examiner without rclnqush
ing the right to express amazcmcnt at the ad
mission OF both that party platform can b
eclipsed completely by the caDdidato.

THE d,.su OF CLASS CONSCIOUSNESS

no physician can cure. II is wrecking political
parties. for their chief purpose is less service
to the state than to that particular class that
rules them. 1t likewise is wrecking govern
ments.
The labor oligarchy first raised the class con-
scious standard in politics. And In the political
arena the elect oratc is indistinctly divided be-
tween the laboring class and the monied class
But there are further subdivisions under both
standards. on the one hand the farming class,
the mining class, etc; and on the other the
manufacturing class the banking class, the In
tcrnationrl banking class, etc.
In all instances-and we ask the readers dis
eliminating attention to this-these classes are
not concerned with the citizens rights under
the constitution which Is and must remain the
true sovereign. but with securing something OF
a special nature out Of government for the
class. The result is--and 1t is foolish to deny
or ignore it--a clash Of classes. What 1t lacks
of being a class is slight indeed
And now, with the advent of some millions
OF new voters there arise apostles who frankly
preach that they should Immediately organize
themselves into still another class and demand
special consideration. We refer OF course to
the woman voters.
Mrs August Belmont one OF the canonized
leaders OF the suffrage movement, was re-
Gently quoted in the New York Times urg-

that it can be thrown with unanimity in any
direction, then boldly exercise the franchise to
usher in the rule OF woman at one stroke,
1t is not likely that this advice will appeal TO
many women Of sense, For woman, even as a
voter. has no popularity OF interest that differ

right under the constitution that is not also the
right OF man. The right to labor, to the pro

individual liberty OF action In all things unit
such liberty encroaches upon the rights OF othe
