Real Progressives.
From the San Francisco Cull. Re
publlcul‘i:
These (California) progressives
and the thousands of bone. tide pro-
gressives who have fought with them
unselfishly and untllrlngly for principle
and not for jobs, were for Taft. four
years ago because they believed that
he was the greatest exponent of their
principles. They are for him now be
cause as president he has made those
principles Into governmental policies,
bucked with the coercive sunctlon of
statutes and the strong hand of the we
ecutive.
because he has worked out the ro-
forms that his predecessors made the
subjects of innocuous essays. They
are for President Taft because he has
substituted progressive practice for
. progressive phraseulmcause progresa-
ivism means to them soemthing more
than oratory.
Platform and Campaign.
From the Ohio Shite Journal, Re-
publican:
Roosevelt's position on the initiative
and the referendum, the recall and the
appeal to the populace against court:
decisions is widely opposed. and the
conflict will largely consist in showing
the people that. these doctrines are
dangerous. The line~~of battle is al-
lieady drawn; and it seems so deep and
distinct that great labor will be requir-
ed to effect it. if it will be at all pos-
sible. And there is where «personal
attachment will dominate party has

these doctrines ' (Mr. Roosevelt’s) are
truly Republican, and if they are not.
'whethai' they ought to be made Repub-
heart. Do the Rephbllcans of this
state. believer in “fluid" constitutions,
in the Initiative. the referndum and
tho'irecall? They are not articles of
the Republican faith. Nor up to the
present time has the Republican party
ever declared itself in favor of a ”pure
democracy."

government. with the glorification of
an unlimited and unchecked executive
lpowor. mites him into territory whitlr
or the West cannot follow him. Much
as the citizens of this western country
,odmlro him. they recognize the plat-
form'which he outlined in his Colum~
bus speech to be revolutionary; it
Iwould rcmove from the smaller states
{of the West the protection which the
Constitution gives them through the
three coordinate branches of gowrn‘
, merit. and his practical obliteration of
state lines is so subversive of
principles upon which the Union of
lStutcs was founded that the hearty
,support which the West has always
given him must be withdrawn.

From the Topeka Capital,

i Whether T. R. is ever elected presi-
‘dent again or not. his defence of Dem-
ocratic idealism and ills clear setting
forth of the doctrines "a: i776,'which
int times have been highly thought of
illl this country, are worth more than a
bumper wheat crop. Some people are
hearing these doctrines for the‘first
time and being Impressed with them.
Percentao‘es in Iowa.
From the Des Molncs Capital, Re-
, publican:
I It is predicted that Taft will have
at least 160 of the .187 delegates in the
forthcoming Appanoose County Re-
. publican convention. That seems to be
the usual Taft percentage through the
state so far as the situation has been
canvassed.
TO “RECALL"ONE COURT RUUING
(Bridgeport Post, March 2.)
The action of “the Democratic cau-
cus lit'Washington last night in deal-
tng'with the sugar schedule is a
whole bale of straws to show‘the‘ way
“the radical winds are blowing. The
proposition involved in the action of
the caucus is the placing of sugar up-
on the free list and the practical
creation of an income tax, through
ithe process of ‘nuccosstul' evasion" of
the constitution. which as one ,of
Brldgeport's most pronilnent citizens
once said, its equivalent to a compli-
ance with the law. ‘
The plan of the proposed bill. which
is to be reported by the Ways and
Mean committee. is the extension of
the corporation)” law to private in-
comes ovcr 35,000. That is. a man
willpey a tax or one per cent. on his
gluconeorer‘tsmoo a year.~ For in-
Repu bll-l
change in the taxing law will be to
relieve the ulasscs of u hcavy burden
and at the some time make good the
loss of revenue by heavier taxing on
those best able to bear it.
There are two very significant facts
about this proposed law. The first
is that it is but part of the move-
ment to change the system of taxa-
tion in this country Trom what it is
at present. the most unfair and in-
equitable of any system in the world,
in the direction of a method that is
udllllhted cverywi‘lere, but in this coun-
try, to be fairer than any other yet
devised.
The secondjuct cf significance Is
that the proposed law is a direct re-
call of one of the most inexcusable
decisions ever given by the United
States Supreme courtwthat which do.
clal'ed an income tax law unconstitu-
tional after that law had been recog-
nized as constitutional for ninety-
thrce years!
We fancy that when Oyster Bay's
most distinguished citizen looks over
his newspaper this morning it grim
smile \v'ill come on his facc. If it
turns out that the majority in Con-
gress is In uccoril with the majority
or the people, and this law goes on
the statute books, it will be as surely
a recall of a court's decision on a con-
stitutional question, as any over at-
tempted. just us Colonel Roosevelt
suggests. And the important part of
it all is that it is done through an
evasion!
We shall await with interest the
conservative comment upon the pro-
iposltlon. We fancy that the dose will
ilie. bitter, but it is only the kind that
ihss been coming in the pnst'fcw
fyears. In the next ten there will be
imuuy more, and some of them will
gbe lunch worse than this one.
i As to whether the proposed change
‘ln the laws will be oi the slightest
benefit in reducing the price of sugar.
inc have no means of knowing. There
2will be a tremendous noise ubout it
and theoretically it. should, but if the
outcome works as in other cases,
super will be no cheaper and the only
persons to profit by the change will
‘ be those who manufacture sugar.
l
i BREAKING up THE PARTIES.
f (Hartford Times.)
' The nuuminccnicms which are put
,cut today by the representatives of'
lTheodore Roosevelt show plainly
‘cnough the methods which are to be
.cmployed to encompass tho defeat of
Stile renomluatiou of President 'I‘uft.
i For instance. the Kansas railroad
‘conlractor, Stubbs. who happens to be
l the governor of the suite, predicts that.
}Mr. Taft will withdraw from the con-
ltest prior to the tnlsombling of the
Chicago convontlc. because he will
; be unable to obtain the delegates from
‘hls own Slate. of Ohio. In connection
Ewitll this statement attention should
lbc paid to the proceedings in the dis-
;trlct republican convention, lll Mis-
isourl on Thursday, where two sets of
lwcre chosen. one. of the regular dele-
fgntton. who favored then nomination of
i'l‘ott. the others being Roosevelt men
Iwho will contest the right of the Taft.
,nlcn to seats in the convention. Tile
iRooscvclt gang evidently intend to
jpursuc this policy of electing contest-
jlng delegates all over the country, and
lit may be assumed that they are pro
lpcrlng to lay a basis for a big bolt
ifrom the Chicago convention in tho
icveut that they are unable to obtain
{control of the organization.
} Equally significant is the election in
ithe Sixteenth Ohio district of a double.
{set of delegates to the democratic
convention. one being favorable to
the nomination of Governor Harmon,
and the other one determined to de-
feat his nomination at all hazards.
Both the national conventions will be
cempelled to devote much time to the
discussion of the question of who has
a right to hold a seat in the conven-
tion-before the balloting , for candl-
dates can be begun.
The indications of a rule or ruin
spirit in both of the great parties are
very clear. The desire of the
grosslves" on each side is to break
down party lines and introduce a new
political order of things.‘
FOR CONGRESSMAN.
Democrats about the county are
talking quite considerably on.the'pos-
slhilitles of the congressional nomina-
tion in Falrfield County. At the pres-
”ent time there are e halts-dozen candl-
dates in the field. Among them are
«Lynn W. Wilson, Representative Al-
bert Phillips, of Stamford. State Sena-
to'r Jeremiah Donovan, of Norwalk.
George S. Ingersoll. of Ridgofleld.
John S. Seymour. of Norwaik, former
patent commissioner, and Homer 8.
Cummings, of Stamford. There are
some, too. th intimate that former
Congressmen Robert E. DeForest's
name may be.beforo the convention.
The upper‘end of the county has not
yet been heard from. One reason why
there ire so many candidates is be
