The Old Order Changeth

No deception could be more pernicious than

the one that the Republican party has been, or

can be, restored to its former eminence. The rank and file are not there. Nor is the leadership that gave the party its impetus in the last days of its unsullied triumph. Everywhere the men who stood with their faces against the future are spokesmen and leaders of Republicanism. The Hale-Burleigh machine in Maine ; in New Hampshire Gallinger, the patriarch of all the standpatters ; in Vermont

Dillingham, the champion of Lorimer and all the

blackness of Lorimerism; in Massachusetts the

Crane-Weeks-Lodge machine, synonymous with

reaction; in Connecticut Frank Brandegee, "who

has been called the messenger boy of Nelson W. Aldrich; Barnes and Root in New York; the Fairbanks-Hemen way-Watson machine in Indiana ; Cannon, McKinley, Rodenburg and Mann in Illinois; Burke in South Dakota; Curtis in Kansas; the Guggenheim interests in Colorado; Smoot in Utah and Idaho, and the defiant South

ern Pacific machine in California throughout the nation these men, archetypes of reaction, stand as nominees for the Senate and the House of Representatives in the Republican party and control that party absolutely. Contrast these with the real leaders who gave the Republican party its brilliance before the days of its wreck Roosevelt, Pinchot, Garfield

and Garford, Beveridge, Bird, Allen, Murdock, Heney and Johnson all Progressives and all representing the forward movement in American social, political and economic life. What is left of the Republican party is distinguished solely by leaders who enforced the unrepresentative principle in legislation and in convention procedure, and who stand today where they stood in 1912 and before.

Permanent Prosperity

(Continued from Page One.)

This was passed only by logrolling, by trades and deals, and by the lash of party regularity. That law, in substance, said that uch prosperity as we then had might go on if nearly all the people and most business interests would allow themselves to be robbed for the benefit of i very few business interests and a imall fraction of one per cent of the people. Result Inevitable. Of course the result was inevitable. Not only did the majority resent the inequality and Injustice of that law but '.he moral sense of the nation was ihocked and outraged. In debate on the floor of Congress, and later in discussion before the people, the Paynealdrich Tariff Law became quite as much a moral as an economic question. So the party under whose name this law was framed up was put out of power and the other old party, promising to correct those abuses, put into power. Last year this party tore the Payne-Aldrich Law all to pieces and made a new tariff law from beginning to end.

that powerful and corrupt interests might induce them to pass. When the industrial and commercial readjustment of the world comes, after the war is over, does anybody doubt

Tariff changes should not be made by wholesale and all at once, whether needed or not; but, instead, that tariff changes should be made one at a time and only when conditions call for the change? That is the way prudent and successful business men conduct their business. Why should we not treat our greatest business laws in the same way? Business Sense Needed.

Still, with all these powerful causes at work, could Germany have done this If she had treated her tariff and other business laws as we have treated our tariff and other business laws?

Could 'she have prospered in the face of her burdensome natural disadvan

tages of her business conditions never were certain and her prosperity broken up every few years? Or could Prance, whose prosperity is even greater than Germany's, due to her

richer soil and better location? Germany, France and other protective tariff countries deal with the tariff as a purely business problem. Partisan politics has not the least thing to do with their tariffs; they are made on the work of permanent experts whose exclusive business is tariff work. Changes are made with painstaking care according to an exact knowledge of all the facts. The whole tariff is delicately adjusted to meet the needs of the country's industry and business; and nothing like our favoritism to powerful interests is tolerated or even thought of. And yet, on the other hand, every variety of business, little or big, agricultural, manufacturing or mining, is given ample protection, based on exact and equal justice. So there never is any business earth

quake in those countries, caused by a tariff upheaval such as we have in America. Whenever there is a tariff change it is made so that it helps business instead of hurting it. It is as plain as the fact that two and two make four that if we handled our tariff in the same sound and honest way we should have prosperity as much greater than German and French prosperity as our resources are richer and our population is smaller. Asks Solution. Shall we not establish a real, a permanent and a non-partisan tariff commission of experts, each one of whom is master of the subject, whose sole and exclusive business it shall be to do for us that part of our tariff work which can be done only by such men and in such a way. Shall we not settle our tariff question for good and all get it out of the way of business? Shall we not secure for ourselves steadiness in business conditions and a normal and permanent prosperity?

now well known that the problem of

fertilization of our comparatively exnausted lands is alone enough to require protection of farm products if the American farm is to supply the future food of our own people. And this injustice is only one of the many with which the present tariff abounds. What They Promised. Yet, time and again, the leaders of the party in power boldly said that this new law was sure to do several Lhings. It would, they said, cut down the cost, of living; at the same time

t would raise the prices of the farm- j rs' products; by the same process it j would give laboring men more em- i oloyment at better wages; it would j expand our foreign trade, increase the ;

nut put of our factories, mills and

mines; anu greatly improve me dusi- i

ness and increase the profits of our lomestic merchants. Every one of these predictions and promises was made formally, with the cocksureness of absolute certainty; und there is no doubt that many of our people believed that all these things would t ome to pass. The country found nut, before the great world-war came an. just, how accurate were these ."Maims of the authors of our present 'ariff law. A world in arms now suspends, for a season, the operation of any tariff; ind if, after a while, the farmer finds the prices of his products going up he will know that it is because he is called on to feed battling nations; if factories and mills again begin to run night and day, and the laborer returns

to his work at good wages, it. will be because the factories and mills of oth?r nations are cold and silent, and because their artisans and workmen ire on the battlefield; if our flag once more appears on the oceans, it will be because foreign ships are shut up in pert, engaged in conflict, or at the aoltom of the deep. Propose Worse Law. Before the war began, however, and even since, the very same men who made the Payne-Aldrich Tariff Law asked the people to let them and their party make another Payne-Aldrich Law. If the people heeded these men we should have an even worse law than the Payne-Aldrich Act; for these men would say, and with some show of reason, that the people are so disgusted with the present law that they will tolerate any kind of high tariff, ao matter how high or extortionate it may be. Indeed, these men are saying this very thing right now. Also, the shattered commercial and industrial interests of other nations would furnish them a cover for enacting anything

Or shall we go on in the old way, which gives us tariff laws written by the hand of ignorance, guided in the writing by the hand of interest laws that are just to nobody? Shall we go on allowing political parties to create tariff upheavals every few years that shock our entire business world, and throw out of gear the machinery of our domestic commerce, and make normal prosperity impossible and permanent prosperity a hopeless dream? .

You would think there could be but j one answer to these questions; and j that would be the case but for the Intellectual locomotor ataxia with which partisanship inflicts us. Can we throw off at the ballot box this deadly paralysis which benumbs our minds and controls us? Have we sense enough

and will enough to vote for our own permanent welfare instead of voting as politicians who control political parties tell us to vote? It is an acid test of our intelligence. It goes far to show our boasted capacity for governing ourselves. The railroads, the tariff and the trusts constitute the three fundamental divisions of our business activity; and our business activity is nothing more than the producing and trade activities of the whole people. Each of these divisions, then, should be handled by a separate arm of the national government. Those who object to the creation of new branches of the national establishment must remember that in the beginning we had only the treasury, state, justice, war and postoffice departments. . The navy department was npt established until nearly eleven years after the constitution was adopted. The interior department, the department of agriculture and the department of commerce and labor were created at different times to meet the growing requirements of the national government by the expanding and varied activities of our people. Exactly the same process created the interstate commerce commission. Shall we not, then, make permanent prosperity our business watchword and throw party regularity on the scrapheap? What will your verdict be in the great case of Your Own Welfare versus Partisan Politics?
