However , their strong republican proclivities is quite frequently noticed in their eiitorial columns , in which their usual fairness gives way to their sagacity and solicitation for re publican policies and candidates in which they are ready to trust their poorest or weakest material and pronounce it good as compared with tried and true statesmen of the democratic faith. Note for instance the following article on the Massachusetts , primary in re gard to Champ Clark's candidacy and the apprehension of republi can defeat : ( State Journal , May 1. 1912. ) It is time for some of the republicans - publicans who have been declar ing their willingness not to sup port President Taft under any circumstances to take stock ol * * their surroundings. While tl-ie early returns from Massachusetts are inconclusive on the republican side , the democratic primary is a runaway victory for Champ Clark. These steadily repeated victories for the houn' dawg statesman are enough to make the Grossest re publican insurgent stop for serious rejection. Called upon to choose between the president and the speaker of the house of represen tatives , how many republicans are there who would even consider casting a vote for the irresponsible jester from Missouri ? And yet that man may turn out to be the only alternative in sight. His candidacy seems a joke , but it is .fast getting away from the men who started it. THE PRESIDENTIAL SQUABBLE. Every true democrat deeply do- plorrs this presidential squabble in wL'ich some aspiring candidate thinks more of his own success than of the party. This , of course , cannot be said of Governor Harmon nor of Un derwood nor of Gov. FGSS nor of that patriotic Missourian who has fought the battles of democracy for over a quarter of a century and has never yet placed himself above his party , nor hindered her progress , nor opposed legislation for .the benefit < > f the masses when offered by the opposto party and he is not now trying to raise him self by tearing down any other candidate. Old Champ Clark fa too good a democrat to get out and ( jght the .men who have helped to make democratic principles popular. Ho s imply oilers 5ik .services to the people as their candidate if they .think he is the man to lead Jjiem Lo victory , and the same unseKiph view is entertained by the other aboved named persons. Either will cheerfully lay down their own aspirations f r individual honors and as Governor Harmon put it in his Omaha .speech that he \vould3get under the table a rl Jay there until the campaign is over if that would promote democratic success. . , We wish we coukl say as ra ch for nil the aspirants for the presi- dent/iai nominuiiou. The fight put up on other candidates wjll not l.elp th individual who puts up the light , but rather jshould turn every j lriotic domocrs.1 pr re publican against that person. thinks DO one * good enough save himself alone , should be given to understand by the keepers of the faith that there are others and more worthy pat riots , who are deserving and ready to abide by a popular sentiment for what he has done rather than what one proposes to do in a strenuous campaign of villification of worthy men , to enhance his own egotistical candidacy. The temple of democracy shall not be builded this year by blood stained hands or by those who have engendered hatred by bitter , personal controversies within the party. Massachusetts primary gave IS delegates each to Taft and Roosevelt velt , but the state preference vote was for Taft , so Roosevelt has conceded the state to Taft. Champ Clark won the state vote in a walkaway over Wilson , but the preference vote was given to their home candidate , Gov. Goss. who relinquishes his right to Champ Clark. In Texas the vote was held by precinct primaries and Wilson seems to have received the biggest vote over Harmon and Clark but lacks a few of having a majority to control the state convention , which will be held the 2Sth , and this may be entirely different , though Wilson seems to be the leading candidate now. THE EXCJSE-ISMCOME TAX. The impression is steadily gain ing ground that the democratic excise-income tax , which proposes to place upon wealth a part of the burden of sustaining the govern ment , will pass the senate and the house. Senator Penrose , who pretends to be the leader of the standpatters in the senate , has made the statement that none of the democratic bills would be al lowed to pass the senate , but it is becoming more and more appar ent that Senator Penrose and those who believe as he does no longer have the power.to "allow" certain measures to pass or prevent others from passing. The truth is , a great many of the senators , on both sides of the chamber , either because they are at last frightened by the \vave of protest ag.iinst the high tariff in justice , or because they believe in the inherent justice of the income taK measure , have come come to look favorably on the measure. At l ast there has besn a cessation of the talk about the "unconstitu- tioriality" of the bill , and since this always has been the stand pat way of opposing all logical meas ures , the sign is considered a geol one. Nobody pretends to know , of course , what President Taft will do in the event the bill passes the senate and reaches him , but from the amount of popular approval that has been accorded the measure , it is admitted by ev en the friends of the president that a veto for this measure will / mean political suicide for him. The present tariti' law raises about § 330,000,000 a year in gov ernment revenue. And for every dollar of revenue turned into the United States treasury , it is esti mated by democratic Je&ders in congress who have studied the question from every possible ang le , that the tari/i' / barons put five into their own pockets ip yhe form of loot. In other words , the tar iff gives these beneficiaries the right to pollect five dollars in trib ute for evdi'y dollar the govern ment collects in revenue , This condition is alone respon sible for the horde of mushroom millionaires ; this country. On every hand the pcwi > fc ay tribute. In the past , the tariff barons have -ui' sjd a tariff for two princi ple reasons. f FS.t ; they pretend ed they wanted to protect Ameri can workiugmen. That this arg.u- . ment , which jtjje republican pro tectionists listened to with a willing ear for the past sixteen yearis ; a farce , pure and s'mple , has been pi oven by the dcivu crats this session of congress , chiefly thu various investigations into trust methods. Secondly , the trusts urged that in no other way , could revenue to support the government - ' ernment be collected. Having disposed of the first argument , the democrats , through the exise-income tax bill , have of- , ferect a solution of the other al leged difficulty. The democratic party believe there is another way to meet the expenses of the gov ernment , and that that way lies through an income tax. And on the merits of that belief the party is going to ask for national sup port next November. SIMEON. Mrs. Kime is in Valentine with one of the children who has been quite sick. Mrs. J. L.
