The First Progressive
"The basis of our political systems is the right of the people to make and to alter." . It was Qeorge Washington who said this.
Facts
Facts count high everywhere. Whether the matter in hand is railroad legislation or the tariff, it is always a question of digging out the facts upon which to base your case. In no other one thing does a public man more surely indicate his quality than in his ability to master actual conditions and set them forth with clearness. Neither laws, nor opinions, nor even constitutions will finally convince people. It is only the concrete facts of concrete cases. From Senator La Follette's Autobiography in the American Magazine for October. Victor Murdock of Kansas has said much this same thing. The Kansas congressman has told how the people of Kansas discomfited the spellbinders in the last canvass by their questions about specific facts. Senator La Follette's "roll calls on men and measures" were facts which no amount of oratory could et away from. The time is past when meaningless words about "Old Glory" and "our imperishable institutions" can win elections. The people want to know, you know. As long as the railroads had all the facts about rates and the people's servants simply talked, the railroads had things their own way. Senator La Follette's quality was displayed in his speech on the Hepburn Rate Bill. He had a perfect mastery of the facts of that subject. Take the record of the Insurgents tor an explanation of their power in congress. They knew what they were talking about. Dolliver, Bristow, La Follette and the others in the senate each made himself an encyclopedia of some particular branch of the tariff legislation. Theodore Roosevelt's administration was an administration of fact experts. There were expert investigators and commissions to find out and publish the facts about everything that couched the life of the people. It was simply prodigious the amount of information that seven years gave the people about their own government and about the conditions affecting their daily living. The fact of the platitude is past. The day of Inquiry is here. Facts speak louder than words. Kansas City Star.
Turkey's Western Coast
The proximity of Albania, the westernmost outpost of the Ottoman Empire, to Italy brings this little land with its long history of wars and revolutions again into prominence as a possible scene of action in the present Btruggle between Italy and Turkey. The coasts of the two countries come nearer together here than anywhere else; the distance across the Straits of Olranto from the boot heelto Avlona, the best oC Turkey's western portB, is less than fifty miles. The union of Albania with Italy has long been tin aspiration of many southern Albanians and the dream of certain Italian patriots. Albania haa furnished some of Turkey's most dependable fighting men In Europe and such commanders as the "Groat Bairaktar," whose memory Constantinople but a short time ago turned out to honor. They formed part of the bodyguard of Sultan Abdul Hamid, accepted the new Government with great enthusiasm, and revolted when they found the promised reforms were denied. This revolt, now scarcely ended, caused a Ministerial upheaval and talk of an international Intervention. Much encouragement was given the cause of the revolutionists by descendants of Albanians who had fled from their native land to Sicily and Calabria, and the Italian Government was compelled to exercise a stringent blockade in the Adriatic to prevent the sailing of armed bodies of volunteers. The revolutionists, overwhelmed by a superior Turkish force, were compelled to surrender. While many of the warriors returned to their lands, they seem to be merely waiting for a favorable opportunity to renew their struggle for freedom. It is hardly probable that smarting under recent defeat they would make a united and vigorous resistance to the people who had proved their best friends or that the Ottoman Government should put complete reliance in their fealty. Italy would expect to meet here, should she attempt a landing, the same Anatolian troops that had been employed in the suppression of the revolt. But as the best fortifications of this end of the empire are the rugged mountains, this force could not make the same efficient use of them as could the natives, familiar from birth with every path and narrow pass. Prevesa, at the southern point of Janina, is the most strongly fortified point of the coast. It was garrisoned and fortified years ago, perhaps more with a view to its efficiency in trouble with Greece than a difficulty of the present magniture. Avlona, with its fine protected harbor, is the envied situation that would give control of the Adriatic by its position at the entrance to the sea through the Straits of Otranto. While the Turks have maintained a good sized garrison there, it has been used mostly as a base of supplies in operations for the pacification of the interior of the country. The harbor of Durazzo, the next to the north, has none of the usefulness or glory of the days when as Dyrrhaclum it was the western terminus of the great Roman road to Byzantium. A small fort on the hill above Alessio guards the Adriatic port of Scutari, the most populous of Albanian townB and one of the best commercial points of western Turkey. Scutari Itself would be safe from naval attack, as the Bayona is passable for even the smallest seagoing vessels only a short distance from the coast. The reduction of this coast and the landing of the soldiers ought to be accomplished easily by Italy. The resistance would appear with an attempt to penetrate the country. With this successfully surmounted there Is no reason to believe that the dreams of union of Albania with Italy could be realized. Even the retention of any part of Albania would be questioned. Montenegro hoped that her treatment of the revolutionists would predispose the northern tribesmen in her favor when the subject of the adjustment of her eastern boundary line again came up for settlement. Avlona is the most sought after prize. Italy, with strong fortifications on both sides of the Straits of Otranto, would be supreme in the Adriatic; this Austria-Hungary, with her growing young navy would not permit, even to a member of the Triple Alliance. New York Sun.
Men in the Public Eye
Men who. forgetting their words and j actions of the past, insist on keeping i in the wake of the successful were j given a rebuke at Davenport, la., a few j days ago during a visit there by' Speaker Champ Clark, and they were put to rout by a plain farmer who j
happened to be possessed of a good memory. There was a public reception for Mr. Clark, and Farmer Jones, always having taken his Democracy straight, went in to look on this latest star of his party. He found great difficulty, however, m getting within seeing distance. Mr. Clark was surrounded by men who were not disposed to move along. They monopolized his attention, while Farmer Jones fumed in vain. Finally the farmer got within reach and he found on one side of Mr. Clark a Democrat who had supported Palmer and Buckner; on the other a Democrat who had voted for Taft, and in front a Democrat who had taken the stump against Bryan in 1896. Seizing the anti-Bryan orator by the farmer addressed him in a voice which could be heard above everything else. This is the substance of what he said: "This is, indeed, an auspicious occasion. It is inspiring to some of us who have labored in the vineyard in sunshine and in storm, to meet face to faceso peerless a leader, so devoted a Democrat. "I well recall our feelings one evening in that memorable conflict of '96 when, on picking up a copy of the local Democratic paper, we found a telegram from you you were speaking, if I remember rightly, in Indiana saying, 'I am making the fight of my life against Bryan and his fallacies.' " Some of those who had surrounded Mr. Clark began to edge their way through the crowl to evaporate and Farmer Jones found himself face to face, practically alone, with the great man of his party.
Mistah So and So is on de phone, suh. "Taggart was beaming with health and oozing that gentle lotion which is warranted to soothe and beautify the political epidermis. He talked golf wherever he could find a Democrat who knew a niblick from a stymie. He talked farming, dairy products and farm implements. He sternly repreacheded some of the most devout Marshall Democrats for neglecting to come and visit him at French Lick as per his standing and urgent invitation. He jollied Democrats right and left, and they liked it. In short, he was just the same old Tom Taggart, getting by with it all, as usual, having his practical joke on the sine, and all the time apparently enjoying himself hugely."
Claude C. Chinn, an old-time Ken
tucky politician, who died in Indiana
polis a few days ago, was a staunch
friends of William S. Taylor, former governor of Kentucky, who an exile
in Indianapolis for nearly 10 years fol lowing the murder of Gov. Goebel.
Mr. Chinn traced his ancestry back to the family of George Washington, was a soldier in the confederate army during the civil war, under Gen. Morgan, and in later years had occupied a prominent place in the political life of his state. Notwithstanding his personal friendship for Gov. Taylor, Mr. Chinn was on the opposite side in the political fight that led to the death of Mr. Goebel. During the Goebel-Taylor campaign Mr. Chinn occupied the position of county clerk of Fayette county, Kentucky, and had the custody of the keys to the court house, where the ballots used in the gubernatorial election were stored. According to a story told by himself, Mr. Chinn was approached by friends of Mr. Goebel the night of the election and informed that there was but one method by which Goebel could be elected, and
that was by Mr. Chinn giving his consent to turn over the keys to the court house and permitting Goebel's friends to change the ballots. Mr. Chinn refused to comply with the request. He was friendly to Mr. Taylor on account of personal reasons, although he opposed him politically.
It was his refusal to comply with the requests of Goebel's friends that led to a bitter political war against him. Mr. Chinn said he was informed that if he would turn over the keys of the court house he could be perpetuated in the office he then held, but this was no Inducement to him.

NEVER DISAPPOINTS
By their victory over the Insurgent wing of their party at the recent primaries in Virginia, United States Senators Thomas S. Martin and Claude A. Swanson, Democrats, are said to be in absolute control of the state. Excepting Pennsylvania, there is probably no political organization in the country more effective than that headed by Martin and Swanson. In the face of teriffic charges the machine rode rough-shod over the progressives and carried the state by greater majority than the machine ever piled up in a campaign.
T. Taggart, the Democratic "boss" of Indiana, recently went to Indianapolis from French Lick and there was an aggregation of Democrats at the hotel to meet him. He was a day late in arriving, which disappointed many of his political friends, but they soon forgot that. Here are a few excerpts from one account of the "doings." "The faithful ones lingered on, however, and were rewarded by the old Taggart handshake, the Taggart joke, the slap on the shoulder, the familiar salutation, and the good word, straight from the center of Democratic political sapiency in Indiana. " 'I came up to look at some Holstein cows,' said Mr. Taggart. 'I went to the state fair with cows in mind. I may buy a milking trio of fine ones tomorrow before I go back. I have 120 cows at my French Lick dairy. I bought a milk cooler today and a corn harvester, and some other things for my farm.' "Mr. Taggart's progress through the Denison lobby was the usual handwaging reception.' At his elbow almost constantly was a sable Mercury in white pajamas with black trimmings to say: 'Beg pahdon, suh, but
GRANDMOTHER WHIPS
HER GRANDCHILDREN Ellen Goodman, well known at police headquarters was again found guilty of public intoxication when she appeared in court yesterday morning. As she has been found in the same state some fifteen or twenty times in the last twelve or thirteen years, Mayor Zimmerman felt called upon to impose a fine of $10 and costs for the offense. Officer Henry Vogelsong found Mrs. Goodman almost oblivious to her surroundings as a result of her boozing. The arrest was made on South 8th street at quarter to four Monday afternoon. She was hauled
up on complaint of her son-in-law when he saw her beating her grandchildren. She will have to serve out her fine in jail. Clyde Stewart was also convicted of intoxication after he had been arrested by officers Stauttach and Wenger at the corner of Eighth and Main streets Wednesday afternoon. He was given a fine of 11, but the mayor suspended sentence for a few days to watch Stewart's behavior. Stewart will not be allowed to drink for 3 days.
The Formosa Oblong tea production for 1911 will probably reach 24,000,000 pounds, an increase of over one million pounds.
