WOODROW WILSON. IDEALIsT

Editorial by c. S. Mitchell in the
Washington Herald: If there could be
a moving picture Of great parade OF
Armistice day with monograph at
tachment, it should be sent for his de-
lectation and emotional discipline to
one George Harvey, ambassador with
out discretion of the United States
at the Court of st. James. Such pic
ture would show one lone horsedrawn
carriage in the miles Of machines and
military trappings. In this vehicle
were former President Woodrow Will
son and Mrs. Wilson.
Passing along the avenue between
solid banks Of Americans Of all parties
and all conditions, his carriage met u
continuous, spontaneous and hearty APP
plause. 1t was an unmistakable tri-
butte. Following the ceremonies at Ar
liDgton, 10000 Of these people massed
themselves about Woodrow Wilson 8
home to pay him Il further tribute Of
affectionate regard.
This double demonstration can have
but one gnifcance-American are
not merely selfish, self-seeking, self
conferred, sordid opportunists; they
have not cast aside ideals nor the mo-
tive force of sheer righteousness. Mr..
Wilson stands with the American peo-
pie for great ideal, or series Of ideals.
No one can rob him of that place in
national opinion. He may have been
wholly impractical, stubborn and ego
tistic in the extreme. The Herald be-
Heves he was. But his, ideals live
always will live. They are inseparable
from his name, and whatever this
means in history cannot be denied him
in the years to come, and it is folly
or worse to attempt to deny it to him
now.
Another element in the genuine ova-
ton given him is his sickness. He
never again can be national leader,
and there is growing feeling that he
has been unfairly used, not SO much
during his term Of office nor in the
election as since. This is evidenced
in sympathy from his political op-
ponents of the rank and file, and from
those who intensely disapproved his
policies. It is tending to martyrdom
and reacting in politics. :
Nj. Harvey and his kind have made
more friends for Mr.. Wilson and loosen
ed more bonds for the Republican
party than any other influence. They
are the most prolific capital the Demo
Gratis have, and if wisdom comes by
seeing and hearing, they saw and
heard on Friday as that broken man
became almost triumphant in a defeat
never equalled in American politics.

Says the County Chairman:-Poht
cal representations at this early period
are simply wild and idle indulgences,
but even in the face of such the aver
age seasoned old campaigner is prone
to take a flyer at the political future.
Doping out his fellow man comes to
him naturally and from his soundings
and observations are evolved much in
tia way of sound political logic and
reasoning. Without betraying any
political confidence it can be stated
that the bulk of the present political
comment being INDUCED in by these old
timers is anything but assuring as far
10 the political powers-that-be are con-
cerned. There is much unrest, the vot-
ing public is looking for heads to crcak
and neither of the two great parties
have any monopoly of official skulls
likely to be crushed. The chief danger
Is in q sudden rush to some unknown.
This unrest is found in the rural dis
triets - well as in population centers
and how the average voter feels is
openly voiced in any casual gathering

ago squakers were placed in the disloy-
al column and promptly suppressed;
two years later they were classed as

WESTERN REVOLT ON TAX BELL

WESTERN REVOLT ON TAX BELL
The Republican tax revision bill sat
isles no one. Senator ,Smoot' s confes-
sion that it is mere make lift is an
opinion shared by many Of ds col
leagues in both Houses, by the bust
ness world generally and by taxpayers
large and small. 1t has been denoun-
ced by Democratic leaders, comprising
the only tax and tariff experts in both
Houses, as ''the worst tax bill ever
presented in any Congress. - As pass
ed by the Senate it contains s33
amendments, largely in it's administra.
tive features, which nobody under
stands, and although Republican Sena
tors have been openly challenged on
the 4oor to explain these amendments,
none has had the temerity to attempt
An explanation, although some have
openly confessed their ignorance. r.
The few amendments that have i'm.
proved the original bill were made by
Democrats and presented by Demo
cratic Senator. The one outstanding
amendment was the so per cent higher
surtax, later accepted by the Republi-
can Progressives and its acceptance
forced upon Chairman Penrose of the
Finance Committee and his fellow-re-
dictionaries in order to avert a party
split.
In the House the higher surtax did
cause a split, when "a Republicans vot.
ed with the Democrats to accept the
Senate amendment Of so per cent in
stead of adhering to the House amend
ment Of 80 per cent.
This vote, cast by 81 Progressives Of
his own party, was a severe but de.
served rebuke to President Harding,
who had repeated his obstructive inter
ference with Congress, by writing =
letter pleading for the 80 per cent
rate, which would relieve multi million
aires and profiteers only and suggesting
compromise Of 40 per cent.
1t is significant that this Progressive
Republican vote for the higher surtax
all came from the West, and truly re-
aeeted the spirit Of revolt against re-
dictionary Republicanism which is now,
prevalent throughout that section as
it was in 1912. 49, .,
