Thursday , October 26. 1911. Washington News By O. H. TAVKNKKB special Washington correspondent. ; Washington , Oct. 21 , Tariff isn't the only thing- the republi cans are afraid of in the coming campaign. There is another item that is giving them worry. They are wondering how they are to give an answer to the charges of corruption incompetency and maladministration that have been brought out and proven by the various democratic investigating committees. Republican leaders realize that this problem is going to present exceptional difficulties by the fact tiat } when the Demo crats * started investigating they , the Republicans , shouted in de rision of such tactics , declaring there was nothing to investigate ; that under the Republican rule the affairs of government had been conducted in the only per fect manner , and that the whole purpose of the Democrats was to make political thunder. That there was really need of some investigating in and around Washington was amply proven before the probes of Republican rule had well begun , and despite all of the revelations of extrava gance and maladministration that have come to light , many of thp investigating committees are just getting ready to go to work. So far they have but scratched the surface. The Moss committee brought to light the shameful manner in which the plotters in the pure food bureau had stripped Dr. Wi ley of all power , and made a farce of the law designed to protect the public from the greed of unscru pulous food dogers. The Stanley committee learned that the steel trust for years paid tremendous profits on a capitali zation represented largely by wa ter and blue air , and that the trust gobbled up the Tennessee Coal and Iron company , its principal rival , with the aid and connivance of a republican administration , osten sibly to prevent a panic , but ac tually to stifle its main competitor. It was further brought out that men were acting as counsel for the steel trust while receiving money from the government as special "trust busters. " The probe of the state department re vealed that money was expended for one thing , and charged to an other , while the committee on ex penditures in the navy depart ment discovered that more than § 3,000,000 worth of supplies had I been taken from the Washington navy yard without an accounting , and that the bookkeeping system in use there is absolutely ridicu lous. These are but a few of. the many illustrations that could be given to show the value of honest investigations. More than a doz en other committees have turned up equally important evidence.
