Washington, June 3 In his first great fight with his own men' Oscar V. Underwood won a signal victory. He has proven himself a real leader. His- backbone Is made of the right sort or stuff. The democrats have a floor-leader that is not afraid to stand up for what he thinks is right. Had it not been for William Jen nings Bryan's interference the Un derwood wool bill would have been accepted by the democratic caucus without a bitter controversy that threatened to disrupt the party. The contest over wool was long drawn out, but the last days of it were fast and furious ' and accompanied by considerable noise. The moment Mr, Bryan - appeared on the scene the clamor and clattor began. ' 'I am a tariff for revenue demo crat," declared Mr. Underwood. "That has been my position all along. My record is clean. I never boiled a convention, scratched a ticket, or dis regarded a caucus pledge. Mr. Bry un cannot say as much." Representative Kitchin, of North Carolina, helped to bring harmony to the caucus St the eleventh hour. He had been a free wool advocate one of nine on the ways and means com mittee --but, realizing the force of j the argument that revenue must be! raised to run the government, he was willing to concede something. He or fercd a resolution to adopt the Un derwood bill with the understanding that it was not an abandonment of democratic doctrine. This was the oil that, allayed the troubled waters. Just before the Kitchin resolution was introduced Champ Clark; John J. Fitzgerald, Ollie James, Claude Kitchin, and Albert Burleson, held a conference In the speaker's room. Then it was that the medicine was made.;; -x ' Some of the democrats feel very bitter towards Mr. Bryan. V They do (Continued on Page Two.) ",'."..

They simply 'have the tloor' In the lower house, First, aiid above all'. else, they needs .must show the .capacity to 'do' and outlive and refijte the ac cusation of 'excess.' The country has swallowed enough of dogma. What the people want Is deeds. "William 'Jennings Bryan owes it to his own fame, an well as to his', fellow'-, democrats,' to proceed warily and go slow in the matter of -'.censorship. He should be very sure, both of his foot ing and his Judgment before attempting to stir the depths and muddy the stream. His three defeats for the presi dency not only, bring him in life-Ions debt to his , political associates, but they admonish him nt to: be too Sclf confldent. It seems the part of wis dom for a man occupying his excep tional position to rest a while from agitations, even from counsels, and to let well enough have a chance In the race after perfection.

'The Courier-Journal will hardly be accused, and cannot he suspected of disposition to lower Its Hag in the matter, of the tariff. It is the last survivor of the. old guard of- revenue reform. Heart-broken, it saw Its party fatally shipwrecked, by most incom petent navigation, literally wrecked in port. It had abandoned hope. Yet it has lived to see the question come again. .- ' Taking counsel of the past even of some of its own mistakes which Mr. Bryan now would copy it will seek in the coining battle for the right to achieve rather than to theorize and de claim. - The democratic party has for the first time in sixteen years enjoyed a little spell of sunshine.
