What of the Platform?

tLeWlStOn JOuIHdi)
/, An interesting point has been
raised by the Bangor Commercial
which calls attention to the fact that
both Senators harrington and Brew
ster are forcefully presenting the
platforms upon which they seek the
Republican nomination and then
asks: Should the platform Of the
Republican party adopt views con-
Il airy to those held by item, where
would they be left? Would they ac-
cept the platform declarations or
would they accept a nomination upon
a platform whose declarations run
counter to their views or would they
take o contrary course"
This is more pertinent than at
first seems, 1t actually brings ou- the
question Which is the greater. the
party of the individual?" This is of
much consequence 10 the State and
the country This country and its
various states were founded on the
principal Of government by party.
1t cannot be successfully managed in
any other way, yet there is a strong
tendency to drift away from that
foundation and to try and run the
government by individuals. 1t is evil
dent in Congress, it is apparent in
our Legislature. Time after time it
was demonstrated at the last session
of the Legislature.
Now, ii government is to be by
party, tie platform Of the party in
power must be the guiding light of
the administration. Today tie ten
dency is to smile at the platform
after the election and say: THE
party didn't elect me; it was the peo-
pie, and so l am not bound to the
platform" 1t is that attitude which
is causing the troubles in State and
Nation today, though the great mass
of people are prone to blame it upon
something else. just the same, when
in your legislative body the dominant
party holds a caucus to decide. upon
a course of action on importanS mat
teTs, often it cannot reach a decision
because certain members refuse 10 he
bound by the action of the caucus.
unless 1t is according to their way Of
thinking. They argue that they do
not owe their election TO the party
but to the people and that has been
occurring frequently at recent lesis-
lative sessions, as well as at Wash
ington.

TURKEY THROWS OFF CHURCH
DOMINATION

One Of the fortunes Of war was
that Turkey was restricted to a
country with a populatio of five
million people. Before the war she
was. in the person of her sultan,
recognized as the spiritual head of
the Moslem world. Now the Turks,
on their own volition, In the con-
gress which as n republic she has
established. renounce the caliphate.
Just what may follow on that seems
to be somewhat a matter Of doubt.
In a country which undergoes up
heaval-a recent instance Is Russia
religion connected with the state
Is naturally held responsible In some
degree for the iniquities or blunders
of the state. The re$olutionists
are suspicious Of It, 1t represents
to their minds collision between 1t
and the old powers and methods Of
government. 1t is incredible, how
ever. that the Turks are by this
oct renouncing their Mohammedan-
ism. Indeed It Is not impossible
they will feel greater responsibility
In maintaining their faith and re-
senting any interference with It,
They are determined, however, to
have no intermediary stand be-
tween them and Allah.
The caliphate once was thought to
be one of the most precious
prerogatives OF the Sultan. Selim,
the terrible. fought for it. Arabia
wanted 1t. The caliph's title was:
Commander OF the Faithful and
Shadow of God Upon Earth" The
shadow has become imperceptible
on the new government at Angora.
which sets out to initiate western
civilization and cut loose from the
Asiatic. 1t would remove courts
and schools from the domination of
the Moslem church. The state will
take over hundreds OF millions
formerly in the possession of the
church.
1t Is said Great Britain fears for
the effect of this on the seventy mill
lion Mos!ems in india, but we don't
know who said 1t or what was the
motive. As matter of fact Eng
land. before the war and since. has
feared the Turkish influence on the
Mohammedans of the world. Dur
ing the war she managed to keep
those of India and Arabia free from
Turkish control but that she had
not ceased to fear after the war
was over is to be inferred from the
concessions she made to Turkey at
lausanne.

The question uppermost in the

Sonably expect He is doing his days
work, he is not seeking office, we are
seeking him for the office, we are
not appealing to his personal ambi-
ton because we realize that in heed
ing our call he will be sacrificing
personal interests.
Upon the strength of that call will
depend our success in overcoming
his silence and gaining his attention.
We believe that Governor Baxter

he has had the wide vision to recog-

we are so blind that we cannot see
that the octopus of greed is already
extending its quivering tentacles over
cur inheritance? and when they are
fastened here, it will then be too late,

probable that we can catch his vision

We think that every thoughtful

to be asked to pass around this pc
tition or to give his signature but
that he should eagerly seek to do
