SWING IS TOWARD DEMOCRATS
BY Wallace Bassford
(Special News COrrespondent)

Especial News Correspondent
Washington, D. c., Jan. 14:-The
swing is very steadily toward the
Democrats, with increasing momentum.
A survey Of the newspaper field shows
the democratic press aggressive and
full of intelligent criticism of the short
comings of the administration, while
the independent papers in large num-
bers are in similar attitude. The old
conservative republican organs, most
~ owned by the big rich, are on the
defensive. Speaking Of these organs,
it is interesting to note that the Du-
Points have bought up all the papers in
Delaware of any size excepting two;
they can not get those for the very
good reason that staunch and able
democrat owns them-no other than
Willard Salisbury, who will probably
return to the Senate as the result of
the election next November. All Of
the Hearst papers-about a dozen big
-ones-are attacking the administration
every day. The extensive: string Of
Scripps- McRea papers-penny dailies-
are frankly eritieis;ng the republicans
The New York Telegraph, repub-
lican paper, refers to the fact that
President Wilson predicted demo-
cratic victory next November, and
adds: "President Wilson is a great
man, but it doesn't require great
man to discover the present drift of
public sentiment.''

The Republicans are trying to work
their courage UP to the point of enact
ing sales tax. Such a tax has some
advantages; among them are these:
You can't dodge it. You pay it every
time you reach your hand into your
pocket, no matter what you buy. You
don It have to bother about a savings
account, for this tax will not allow
you to save anything except your old
trousers and your integrity to heaven.
1t will be easy to collect, because it
will come off Of those who have the
least influence at Washington-th the,
plain people. Better than all, it forces
the soldier to pay his own bonus; he
should be happy, for he not only gets
the bonus hut has the privilege Of pay
ing it himself. The only drawback is
the name, but the republicans will
doubtless find name for it that viii

Under the new convention law, no
candidate for an office of political par
ty complexion, can file for the primar-
les until after the conventions are
held. This, however, does not inter:

non partisan class, such as for the leg

have been campaign years when a
number of filings have been made by
this time, but apparently the Barkises
