NOT EASILY SCARED.

“The Democrats are hoping to win a larger part of the labor vote this year than they can psually land. They have a stronger case than is usual. This need not be denied,” says the Chicago Tribune. “A steady job at good pay is what the wage earner must have first. * * * There' is now prosperity everywhere and work for everyone.” Then the editor launches into a two column editorial holding up the Hughes scarecrow “after the war” and proclaiming a high tariff the only thing. In 1912 and 1914 the Tribune wanted a tariff commission and wanted lo take tariff out of politics.
