NEW POLICIES HELD
DEMOCRATIC NEED
Growing Demand in South for
Tariff Ends Issue as
Campaign Material.
BY ROBERT, T. SMALL.

HOUSTON, Tex, December IT,
Travelling through the Southland, the
political observer hears much tnat is
interesting and more that Is sisnif-
icant as to the future of the Demo
cratic party. The last two presi-
Dental elections have shown that
the South is about the oniy part of
the country to which the democracy
may look for anything like con-
sistent support from a national point
of view.
The real danger to the Democ-
racy. the real difficulty Of arrang-
ing anything Ike a reorganization
scheme, would appear TO be the fact
that the Democratic politicians OF
the South have lost touch with their
own people. Certainly this Is rtue
with the Southern business man. II is
serious thing indeed to the Democ-
racy when a Texas audience will
cheer a man, who, while proclaiming
himself q lifelong Democrat says he
is more than pleased with the result
of the last election.
1t is a serious reflection upon what
the politicians have come to regard
Is a fundamental policy of the Demo-
cratic party to find Texas cattle
growers, Texas lumbermen and Texas
wool growers meeting and condemn
ing Democratic proposals. for low
tariff duties or free Grade in these
three great American products.
business Views Similar.
Soon after the election this cor
respondent pointed out that the
Democrats had lost so much ground
in the North and East because they
had insisted, by platform declara-
tions and campaign speeches, upon
threatening business with drastic
that American business, during its
period of greatest expansion. had ac-
customed and adapted Itself to a cer-
tain degree of protection and that
business interests always would be
arrayed against the party constantly
announcing that II would upset exist
ing business conditions as the first
feature of its program In Office
1t is possible today TO give the
views of Southern business men, and
1t may or may not surprise the coun-
try at large to know that these views
differ in no particular from those OF
business interests in the North and
West.
Southern business men who stlll
are voting the Democratic ticket in
national elections, either through ira"
dition or possibly some remnant of
racial fear, are not contributing
cess in the Nation at large. Some
Southern States in the recent ''un-
pleasantness" at the polls failed to
raise much 3 per cent OF the
campaign fund quotas assigned to
them by the national committee. 1t
must follow that IL Southern States,
constituting the voting strengh of
the Democracy today, will not con-
tribute funds to help their own party
in its fight in the so-called doubtful
or border states there is a lack Of
sympathy with the national aims of
the party.
South Interested In PYotectiOR.
The truth of the matter is-and
the politicians may blink at It If they
will-that the new South OF today is
