As rightly understood thrift does

And that is what good roads m:an.
They mean right building, in the

DEMOCRATS WILL WIN SAYS
HEARST
Declares That Defeat of Reciprocity
Means More Tariff Reform
VVn. Randolph Hearst eittjr of
the New York Americar, who has
for somelime opposed the Dem icrat c
party is out in an interview declar
ing for Dumonratio docrrinp.
ilesVr: "I think, it will operate
in ttvj directions. Firaf, President
Taft, who was elected on promisea
to reduce the tariff, which he h3
not reduced but rather increased,
has relied upon reciprocity agr;e
m nt with Canada to cover up hici
shortcomings in the matter of a
general tariff. Now that hi a recip
rocity enhrms has been rf-jectyd by
yamulu it may induce him to turn
wiWi x more serious purpose toward
tae re.ti.Zitiou of his tlectioa pioui
lief. On the other hand, the rej to
tiou of reciprocity by Canada wou'i
conduce to the strengthening of the
Republican cause at tne next freei
dental election."
Mr. Carnegie, I observed, thought
that T-ift'8 re-election waa so certain
that it was hardly worth irbi'.e dis
cussing the chances of any other
candidate.
. ! don't agr?e with Mr, Carne
gie," said Mr. Hearst. "I think
i.hut if Tuft is notnmated, he s'ands
n very good cbauce of being r j.'cted.
fy j strong is the feeling in tho coun
try in favor of a reduction of the
ur ff which Taft has a it reduced
itiric it is not improbable that a
strong attempt might be made to se
cure the Lomiiation cf auotner can
didate for the next election.
I said I took it for eranced that
ui Taft desires to be re-elected there
would be a sufficiently strong 'Taft
party to prevent the nomination of
any other candidate.
lhat a quite possible, said Mr.
Hearst, "but if Taft only at-curos his
nomination on such tjrma, it is im
possible to expect the Ke'ph'blicah
party to nht for him with suffi
cient unitv and enthusiasm t3 secure
success. Insurgents are very dis
satisfied, and if Taft were nominated
as you suggest it would probably
lead in the election cf tne Demo
cratic candidate."
"Who do yon think will be nomi
nate ly th Democrats? I aBked.
"I; would be d ffioult to say," re
plied;Nr. Hearst. ''There are four
names mentioned and prominently
discussed. One, Mr. Harmon, of
Ohio, I put out of the question on
the ground that he is too conserva.
tive, I think it would be impoeai.
bit to secure the selection of a sec
ond edition of Judge Parker by the
Democratic masses.
''Then (here is Wood row Wilson,
who is a very clever man, who some
time ago was exerting his ability in
order to prove that the initiative,
the referendum and the reoall Were
things evil in themselves and the
adaption of which would be detri
mental to the Commonwealth. He
is now using the same abilities m
order to prove that the initiative, re
ferendum and recall ought to be
adopted as the fundamental planks
of the Democaatic platform. I
don't for a moment bint that Mr.
Woodrow Wilson may not be perfect
ly sincere in advocating today what
he denounced yesterday, but there
is an uneasy feeling that if he were
installed in the White House the
principles he advocates today he
might in all sincerity and honesty
repudiate tomorrow.
"Of the other candidates there
are two in Concrete. Champ Clark
and Oscar W. Underwood are both
good men, either of whom would
make a goed President. If the
choice lay between the two at the
present moment, I think the choice
of the party would be Clark. He is
not only Speaker of the House of
Representatives, but he is a man
who for many years has been closely
associated with Democratic policies
On the whole, if I had to epecu
late on the chances, I should be dis
posed to favor Clark."

A CARD FROM JUDGE LOIS
I
He Will Frobably Be a Candidatev
for Supreme Court Justice to Sue
ceed Judge Brown.
To the Editor of the Statetrille Landmark:
Tlia successors to JudgesBrown and
Hoke are to be named by the next
Democratic State envecton. My
aiunu has Ik-en connected with the
succession to Judge Brown's sat
and I have under consideration the
qutsbicn as to whether I shall con.
s?nt to become a cand'date as his
successor. As Julge Hoke is the
only member of the court born and
reared ia the now politically domi.
inant section of the State, and is so
eminently fie tJ succeed himself, it
is taken for granted that he will be
named as his own successor. In de
termining whether it is just or pro
per for me or another western man
to offer for Judge Brown's place,
there are several questions to be con
sidered. 1. First and paramount is the
public interest.
2. The precedents of the party
and its welfare. Democratic prece
dents have usually given the dom
inant territory the majority of the
offices. If this rule had been ap
plied when Judge Brown was nom.
inated before the place would have
been given to the West. If the west
waived the rule then, shall it do so
again? Is it beat for the publis in
terests that it do so?
3. The plan of selection i 3 also
to be considered. Shall it be by a
primary so as 10 enable all Democrats
to express a choice, or be left, for
decision by a few meu. There is no
legalize 1 primary provided so that
8UchpUu,if adopted by the 8tate
executive committee, has thrown
aronuu it no enforceable rules under
the laws of the Stte.
4. Besides these questions there
is to be considered the hearings after
the contest, if mitde, upon the for.
tunes of friends not of so much
public interest it may be but of
sentimental value and not to be ig
nored uy one who loves his fellows.
5. T..en above all from a purely
personal standpoint, whether a man
consciously knows his own ability
to do the work as it should be done
in this high station. Four times
heretofore I have stood aside and to
this extent, advanced the fortunes
of others to this high station. I am
quite willing to do eo again if the
pu: lie wea! demands it.
I make this statement now that
the thoughtful men of the State
may have time, without hasty com
mitment, to consider the matter; and
later 00, after viewing it carefully,
I shall announce my decision to my
friends.
In no event is my consideration of
the matter to be viewed in the light
ot persooal hostility to Judge Brown.
He and I have always been personal
friends.
Yours truly,
B. F. LONG.
Spreckles Turns Democrat Tariff
the Cause.
Claudius Spreckles, head of the
Federal Sugar Rrfining Company
and the bitterest foe of the sugar
trust, although a life long Republi.
can, has renounced his allegiance to
his party and has joined the pro
gressive democrats.
Mr. Speckles declares that the
msj irity of business men among his
acquaintances who have supported
Republican principles and candi
dates have turned thoir backs upon
their old political affiliations.
" The present industrial and poli
tical condition of tha country show
that the time for a complete change
at Washington, both in the legisla
tive aud executive branches of the
government has come," said Mr.
Spi eckels. "I dou't happen to know
just what Mr. J. P, Morgan's atti
tude is," he said, ''but I do know
that a great many of the big finan.
ciers who have been republicans will
vote with the democrats t the end
of the campaign next year. Yfhtt
the couofy understands is Wall
street is full of meu who are think
ing and planning just as I am. I
meet them everywhere"
What 6necial ciose hsa contribut
ed to 'his udden shift of republi- -cans
cf big business from the Repub-,
lican part)?" Mr. Spreckles was
anked.
"The tariff m dnly," he replied.
ut pirtioularly the jockeying
President Taft baa been doing with,
tbe great financial question. I hou.
mnds of us supported our party ia
the last campaign because we be
lieved it was honestly committed to
tariff revision downward."
