The Augusta Herald says noth ing, but human fingers will ever be a practical cotton picking machine until cotton is grown on which all the bolls will open at the same time. It looks so. dim Tawney. the standpatter Min 60ta congressman, has met his fate . at the hands of an unknown young lawyer- with insurgent proclivities, who, in turn, will be beaten by a . Democrat?Buck, of Winona. Congressman Payne declares that fee has no apoligizes to make for the tariff bill. Several other standpat Congressmen who felt that way about-.the .tariff will be hunting a job after the November election. ? ?In a double-leaded utterance The New. York Sun,. Roosevelt;s. ancient enemy, call upon all good Republi cans to seize the splendid chance now; offered ,tn.whack him hard by voting the Democratic State ticket. ?Col.. Bryan and Senator. Tillmau , are now even. Sometime ago Bryan *eoore)d rT?lman for voting , with the ?epublc?n's for a duty on iron ore, and \ now Tiliman scores Bryan for refusing to vote for the man the Deu^ocrats. of Nebraska nominated for Governor. The machine Republicans of New York' who are. highclass Federal of fice holders are mostly lined up for Afr. Roosevelt as delegates to the convention,. and civil service tradi tions have, been thrown to the winds. fTheV Colonel is, of course, a civil service reformer, but-: !A. large number of Republican ? '"lame,ducks," standpatters, who had fallen in the primary election, gath ered att Washington last week when Presjdent Taft was there. It was a sad 6ight) but nothing to compare witu ?what will be seen all over the coun try after the election in November. ?Champ Clark in his speech to the Illinois Democratic convention com pletely demolished what was left of Uncle Joe and his standpat Republi can associates?their extravagance, their protection to the trusts, their pork bills, and other measures of plundering the people. Turn on the light! ^Republican politicians soon loose all interest in politics if patronage ?vanishes. All the pretex of patriot ism^ based on "the old flag and an appropriation." or the equivalent of a good fat office with little or no ?work. Membership in Republican Clubs is but is a hoped-for stepping Stone to office-holding. In a . statement gveu out by him Secator Tiliman says: "If my health continues to improve I expect to be a candidate for the United States senate in 1912, otherwise not. All will depend on how I stand the work fn Washington when I go there in ?December." Should he run Senator fFillman will succeed himself no mat ter who opposes him. jM:-s. Hearst is reported to have said that her husband needs rest ?ro:.; the worry of attending to the Carg'- business cares of his newspap ers. Judging by his hitting Judge Gayj^r when he?for physical red sons?can't reply, and calling him crazy; it is fair to conclude that he is more than tired, and that it is not amiss to inquire, "Who is looney ttOW?" The indications are that Teddy will get one of the worst political drubbings a man ever got when the INew York State election comes off. They have already gotten his candi date to explaining certain big fees that h'e has been paid in the past and bis intimacy with one Root, who tiome' years ago Roosevelt sent to New York to denounce Hearst as the murderer of McKinley; Taft Changes His Tune. IFres. Taft has modified his views on some things very much in the last few months. Like mr.ny other .Republican standpatters he sees the storm coming and he seeks shelter. He now declares that the days of the "pork-barrel" are numbered, and intimates that another bill of the character of former ones will be vetoed by him. He goes still farth er, and reads Republican Congress-' men a lesson on combinations by them and Democrats to secure part of the sway as being "as dangerous to the public weal in cetain of its aspects as corruption. In the same speech the President further arraigns his party by saying that "the evil in corrupt control of a Congress or a Legislature by pri vate interests is manifest and al ways calls for condemnation" Where was the eyes of the President when Aldrich, Payne adn Cannon were facing through the iniquitous tariff law by the log! rolling process, aided and abetted by weak-kneed Democrats? A law which he claim ed was the best the Republi cans ever passed on the' tariff, but which he now admits should be re vised as soon as possible, section by section. A veto of this tariff bill, which protects the trusts in plundering the -.people! would have made the Presi dents political fortune' so sure, that even Teddy Roosevelt would not .dare to. have treated him as he has, The ref usal of the Republicans to en dorse the standpatter Congressman .Tawney, whom President Taft went to Winona to especially vouch for, shows that such a veto would have been welcomed by- the Republicans in all parts of the country. .But he did not do it and in consequence .the Democrats have captured Maine and. are beseiging other Republican .citadels. J3ut bad as President Taft's tariff record is, it is better than Roose velt's. During the years he was in the presidential office, Roosevelt was the subservient tool of Republican standpatters. His record in that par ticular is worst than Taft's. The great difference in the attitudes of the two presidents is that while Roosevelt was loud proclaiming reform, re really, accomplished no reform during his two terms of of fice. Taft has not made any fuss about the reforms he intended to carry out, and he has not attempted to carry out any. He was at least honest, while Roosevelt was not. As a matter of fact, neither Taft or Roosevelt could divorce corpora selves from the trusts and corpora-1 tions that put up the money to elect Jhein. Nor can any other Republican who may be elected. Whether in clined to stalwartism or insurgent ism', he would find his hands tied, for both factions declare not "tariff protection is a cardinal principle of trie Republican party." When a Re publican President vetoes a "pork barrel" bill or a tariff bill, which a majority of his party has voted for, jit. is a dead certain thing that the Republican game of holding up the .public to be robbed by the trusts has been found out and he , is. seeking cover. That is what has quickeherf .the conscience of President Taft. That Ananias Club. Teddy stands a fair chance of be coming an active member of his own Ananias Club. Mrs. Bellamy Store", the one time "My Dear Maria" of those interesting letters Teddy wrote some years ago, refused to remain a member of the Aninias Club, where Teddy assigned her a front seat. Tnis interesting lady publishes some more sensational letters with the ev ident intention of electing Teddy to I the front seat she has just vacated in the Ananias Club. She makes the question of veracity between Teddy and herself and ber husband much sharper by publishing some letters : from Arch-Bishop Ireland endorsing ber statements which Teddy four years ago branded as false. This puts Teddy in an awkward position and heads him for membership in the Ananias Club. The Arch-Bishop is a witness that Teddy can hardly call a liar, and yet he has to do that or admit by his silence that what the Arch-Bishop says in his letter is true, which admission on Teddy's part would exonerate ".My Dear Ma ria" and make Teddy a member of the Ananias Club. Teddy's determi1 nation not to notice the Arch-Bish op's letters will not help him. Real ly what he ought to do, is lo apoli gize to "My Dear Maria" and assume the presidency of the Ananias Club a position which he is unquestonably entitled to by his various accom plishments as an assaulter of the truth. Now Up to Teddy. Using the steamroller in politics has its advantages at the time it is used, but those who are tiattened out by it do not bear any love for the man who managed the machine in the future. Teddy used to his personal advantage the ordinary Re publican machine methods at SaraLo ga. and, having v ire out all opposi to a frazzle, as h<? expressed it, he dictated the platform and named the the candidates. The old guard is down and out as was to be expected, for they are nothing more than a lot of political freebooters who hold power by virtue of spoils and corrup tion. When Teddy was governor they were his good friends and help ed to elect him. and when he was president they still thrived, by his bounty, but now that his personal political fortunes are at stake he has ridden over them roughshod. Now that they have been complete ly shut out from a look in even at the pie counter, is it reasonable to expect the old guard to help elect the men that Teddy kicked them out with. The old guard may choose to insurge a little on its own account and let Teddy elect his own ticket. Such a course would certainly he very human, and we would be sur prised very much If it is not follow ed by the old guard, who were so ruthlessly routed out by Teddy and his cohorts at Saratoga.
