Did Mr.. Bryan and Senator Reed at
the last moment, save their bacon?
The influence Of both figured in the
camnaign against the San Francisco
ticket. Both predicted it's defeat.
Neither made speech in favor of
either ticket or platform. But on cleo
ton day both were regular at the
polls. The ticket they had refused to
speak for they voted for. Does that
entitle them to voice in the discus.
sion now beginning as to 1924?
These are strong-willed men, and
veteran politicians. Both proved to be
prophets so far as this years contest
was concerned. More than twelve
months ago Mr.. Reed advised stoutly
against the league of nations, and
warned his party not to appeal to the
country on the question; that if it did
it would be overwhelmed on election
day. lie did not ut any time modify
his position.
At the Jackson day dinner eaten in
this town last winter Mr.. Bryan spoke
against going to the country on the
league issue. He did not declare
against the league per Sc. but took
the ground that as O majority Of the
Senate part OF the treaty-making
power of the government-hadv voted
for reservations. the treaty should be
accepted accordingly. He, too, pre-.
dicted that if an appeal were made
the party would be defeated.
Undoubtedly, these men sensed the
situation correctly. The party. against
their judgment, made the league the
paramount issue of the campaign, and
was overwhelmed at the polls.
In preparing for 1924, does not the
democracy stand in need of sugges.
tons from tho most sagacious OF its
members. Do not Mr.. Bryan and Mr.
Reed. in the light Of the record quoted,
read their titles clear as sagacious
politicians, risking all as they did in
AN effort to serve and save their party?

POLITICS AT HOME


The Importance Of the record to be
made by the new Congress at it's first
sassion II hest appreciated when view
ed In the light Of the history of the
past thirty years.
In 1888 the republicans swept the
country. Two years later, owing to
popular disapproval Of the record of
the new Congress-, tho democrats re-
gained control Of the House, and two
years later still-in 1s92-came into
full control.
In 1894, owing to popular disap-
proval of the record Of the democratic
Congress-the Gorman-Wilson tariff
bill being singled out-the repub-
licans regained control of the House,
and two years later still-in 1856
came into full control Of the govern
ment.
In 1908 the republicans had an easy
triumph. But year later their tariff
legislation produced a bitter family
row. which resulted the next year in
the loss Of the House. and that loss
was followed two years later still-in
1s12-by the loss Of everything. The
democrats carried both the Congress
and the presidency and sustained no
loss until 1913, when the republicans
captured the Congress. and laid the
foundation for the extraordinary tri-
umph they have just registered.
This history admonishes the repub-
licans to watch their steps the COM
ing two years. Should the new Con-
sress fail to impress the country favor
ably. and the democrats in 1929 regain
control on Capitol Hill, such result
would very likely foreshadow a demo-
cratic victory in 1924. helpless and all
but annihilated as that party appears
today. The electorate has often shown
itself capable of swift and complete
shifts.

Autos and Trains.

AT the session OF the railway and
utility commissioners, just held in
Washington. 2 report was received
from a committee recommending that
the state commissions obtain the pas
sage OF lava requiring all drivers Of
automobiles to bring their machines
to a full stop hefore Passing over un-
protected railroad crossings.
Legislation will not cure this evil
Of grade crossing accidents, unless il
goes to the point Of eliminating grade
crossings. No statute commanding
the fun batting OF automobiles at such
points will cause all machines to be
halted. And even if they are halted
there is NO assurance against disaster,
for there are many grade crossings at
which the car that has been halted
and then proceeds is in as great dan.
ger as the one that crosses without
checking. At some crossings the
tracks are slightly elevated from the
roadway level and road vehicles must
be speeded to get over them.
No law will make men stop their
automobiles at points Of possible dan
ger In all cases. Those who are reck-
lessiy disposed viii continue to run
across tracks. depending on quick
looks up and down. Just so will reck.
less drivers break all the rules Of
safety in the city streets. They know
it IL wrong. but they do it just the
same.
II automobiles are to be stopped by
law at grade crossings the railroad
companies should be compelled at
least to establish bath audible and
visible warning signs to be operated
automatically on the approach of
trains. Then II motorists proceed with
such signals sounding or in visible evil
dence after hating they assume all
risk. r..
Enactment Of compulsory stop laws
In the states should In no circurn-
stances be regarded as lessening the
obligation Of the railroad companies
perhaps in cooperation with the
states-to eliminate the grade cross.
inss In tho rural sections. Eventual
iy that must be done, and all meas
ures Of protection adopted meanwhile
should be regarded as temporary ex.
pedients and not as q final basis of
grade crossing regulation.
