To The Star: party a party ideals or is it

Pertinent Question. A citizen of Kansas City has addressed a letter to the Star of that city asking a number of questions which are similar to queries of a number of Republicans and Democrats throughout the country. The Kansas City Star has answered the questions directly

1. Is the Progressive founded upon great .such a party as one

might expect to see disintegrate before their very eyes if Roosevelt were to be removed from the head of it? 2. In all the history of party organization, we find some typically great man, at the head, who is capable of arousing such interest in the needs

of the people at the time of the formation thereof that there is no question as to the underlying principles upon which it is founded. Can the same be

said for the Progressive party?

3. If Roosevelt could have gained the nomination in Chicago, either by hook or by crook, would there then have been the howling need for a third

party?

4. And tell others and myself, af

ter having answered the foregoing

questions, what are the things that the Progressive party stands for that cannot be found in the party principles

and time honored planks of the Demo cratic party? R. B. BOYLE.

1. The platform, with its declarations for social and Industrial Justice, is sufficient cause for the existence of a new party, irrespective of the leader. Furthermore, there has been

a widespread feeling that the old par

ties were divided on artificial lines and that this country needed a break-up of old parties and a realignment into

a Progressive and a Conservative par

ty. Roosevelt has hastened the break up, but it was inevitable.-

2. " There can be no question that

Roosevelt, in his hold on the American

people, has proved himself as great a

political leader as the country has pro

duced.

3. If Roosevelt had been nominated in June the Republican organization would have been officered by Progressives, and the party would have been made definitely progressive. That was the reason the reactionaries counted him out. But it is believed that Colonel Roosevelt and the other Progressive leaders are now convinced that the organization of the new party

will make possible much greater progress than could have been attained through the old organization with its Penroses and Barnses and Cranes. 4. The distinctive feature of the Progressive platform is the specific declaration for a program for social and industrial justice by means of the methods that have been worked out in Germany and England. In the matter of state rights, the corporation question and certain others, the platform differs, Most important of all, perhaps, is the fact that the organization of a new party has made it possible to include in one organization men who ore interested in social progress, excluding most of tho reactionaries who have impeded the progress of both tha old parties. In spite of the triumph of Governor Wilson at Baltimore th Democratic organization

Campaign Contributions. Every thinking voter knows that political campaigns, whether conducted in a county, a state or the nation, cost considerable money. Each party with candidates in the field must meet the expense necessary to getting its candidates before the public and acquainting the voters with its principles. Heretofore, the simplest way to raise money has been to approach the managers or directors of the large corporations and in return for promises of protection for their interests regardless of the effect carrying out such a promise had on the welfare of the people as a whole, solicit contributions. Under this system the corrupt corporations have come to own and direct the parties they support in this manner. The system is one of the bulwarks of the boss control of political parties. Government should exist for everyone. It should not be the adjunct of any set of corporate interests. Political parties should also belong to the people. If they do not, then we are never going to have government of, for and by the people. The surest way for the people to own their political parties is for them to foot the bills necessary for their continued existence. The most efficient way in which this could be accomplished would be to use the taxing power of the state. Every voter of the state could be subject to a poll tax and the total amount raised in this manner could be paid over to the state chairmen of the various political parties in sums proportionate to the votes each party received at the previous election. It would not be difficult to ascertain the amount the various parties spend in this state for campaign and election expenses. By dividing this amount by the total number of voters In the state the amount that each individual would be required to pay would easily be found. The Palladium favors a state law that would provide for this method raising expense money for every political party in Indiana. It believes the people should have to foot their campaign expenses so that the way will be forever closed for corporations offering to do so. We likewise believe it would be an excellent provision if every citizen who is of age to vote were required under penalty of the law to do so. Why permit citizenship to be exttended to anyone without the proper sense of responsibility to exercise that right?

Heart to Heart TalksBy EDWIN A.. NYE.

STOP THE GOSSir. One venomed word That struck its coward, poisoned blow In craven whispers, hushed and low. And yet the wide world heard. 'Twas but one whisper one That, muttered low for very shame. The thins the aland'rers dare not name, And yet its work was done. For the reason that the slander is muttered low in craven whispers It is always hard to trace the origin of the calumny back to the mallHous tongue that first gave it utterance.

Gossip passes the report from mouth

to ear under the impersonal and in definite phrase.

They say

like the Republican Is officered by reactionaries. Judge Lindsey of Denver, a former Democrat, remarked at the Chicago convention that in Colorado four years ago the victory of Bryan in the national convention was capitalized by the reactionaries to send a corporation man to the United States senate, and that he was tired of seeing the popularity of a national progressive candidate taken advantage of to give more power to reactionary organizations. The election of Parker as temporary chairman at Baltimore over Bryan showed the reactionary strength within the Democratic party. The Progressive party, made up of progressive members of both the old parties, offers a far better chance for carrying out progressive measures than is afforded by either of the other organizations one abandoned to the reactionaries and the other with reactionaries in charge of most of the state organizations.

JAMES A. DAUGHERTY.

the glamour of secrecy and hides its origin in anonymous authority. Gossip is cowardly. It proceeds to murder reputations with the concealed weapons of an unctuous whisper, accompanied by a wink, a nod or a shrug. Oftentimes when the slanderous

work is done the reaction comes. The community wakes up to understand that the tale had no authentic origin and the whole matter was no raorc than mere gossip. And sometimes the understanding comes too late to save the victim of the venomed tongue. A gosslper thrives best in an atinos phere of ignorance and idleness. The well informed are not apt to be credulous, and the busy will not wait to have their ears stuffed, willy nllly. The best way to stop the gossipy tale Is to stop it in your mouth. If your soul is big it will be generous and charitable. It is only the little soul that cannot hold "a secret" The big soul forgets. The big soul knows how sharper than a two edged sword is the venomed word: that, once spoken it cannot be recalled; that the farther it goes the blacker it grows. If for no other reason than charity, withhold the word. Or-

If you be brave enough challenge the

gosslper and brand the story as a lie. Open your mouth and demand that the victim be confronted by his accusers. To the vague "they say'oldly ask: Who says? By doing so you may save some one from a stab in the back.
