A PLEA FOR HARMONY.

- President Taft’s plea sot harOtTony in Republiacn party ranks was very timely, for there certainly never has existed a period since 1884 when there was" more acute discussion, and it is very doubtful if, at ' any time since the organziation of the party, dissension was so widespread as it is to'day. It is a favorite saying of Republicans now that the Democratic party has shown itself to be so divided, so incapable of united action, that there is but little danger in a national campaign from the differences that have arisen in the ranks of their own party. That is not the true feeling, however, of the active leaders of either faction of the party in power. They recognize clearly and fully the impending danger, and it was to avert it that President Taft and , Attorney-General Wickershani made the addresses they did last Saturday night. The trouble with the party is that whether through change of sentiment of many of its members or whether by force of conditions and circumstances it could not control, it is split uporr the tariff policy, which, from the very foundation of that party, has been.the corner stone of the Republican edifice. The demand for revision made in 1908 by the national convention,: it seems, was taken in earnest by a large number of Republicans, and they* thought the revision would her downward. They feel that the party has not yet fulfilled its pledge to the members of the party and to the people at large. "T _y Y They want another revision, and are not backward in making it in the form of a demand. It is not a theory that the Administration has to deal with. The conditions are right plain, to be seen, and the difference-, are of a nature that they cannot be adjusted at a conference, cemented in a conclave nor thrashed out of existence in a discussion. ' ( The conditions have passed beyond the control of the leaders. The rank and file-are in mutiny at sthe ballot box; as was seen in Massachusetts.

STATE CONVENTION NEXT WEEK.

- The Cincinnati Enquirer’s Indianapolis correspondent had extended mention in Sunday’s Enquirer of the coming democratic state convention. We publish a part of the article because the Enquirer is. now an independent republican sheet, and doesn’t say much in favor of the democrats unless it has to: “The reservation of rooms for the. convention is larger than ever before. The event promises to be a record breaker in many ways. Not since the first nomination of Bryan have there been as .many candidates for places on the ticket. The situation is striking because of the. lamentable efforts the Democrats were forced to make for 0 many years to draft met! for their tickets. No place is going to be filled by default. From start to finish there will be fights. Lew Etlingham, of Decatur, and James F. Cox, of Columbus, are working hard for Secretary of State. Ellingham is believed to have a shade the better of the argument because of the feeling that new

We’ve broken a I lot of high-spirited fellows to our clothes; and we expect to keep on doing it. the man I we especially like to “tackle” is the fellow who thinks we can’t persuade him that these I fine clothes made for us by I HART, SCHAFFNER & MARX I • ■ - f'sM - 1 H are better than any he gets made to measure; better for him; economy for him; better I style, better quality. We are convincing a lot of just such skeptics right along. The I clothes do it; all we have to do is to get them tried on. Men are sometimes a little stub-1 born about that, but once they get into the clothes, that settles it. They are the best, I the most economical, the most stylish, and about the only clothes that you know are I all wool. ■ We like to get the other fellow, too, who thinks these clothes are too high priced; I he’s easy, if he once gets started; the economy is too apparent.
