It but confirms the impression that at last the people have awakened to the fact that the full dinner pail and prosperity slogans of the g. o. p. are a hollow sham and a- - mockery ; ' that whatever degree of general prosperity, and it is not too conspicuous exists ab6unds, in spite, rather than by reason, of, Republican control.

Meantime the world rejoices with the allies in .their victory over the unspeakable Turk, whose power Is forever broken. term, whose beneficial effect will, we believe, be so apparent that at the next presidential election the pemocratic party will be returned to power by an immense majority. Mr. Wilsons accession marks the beginning of a new era; the era of the square deal. It was realized that while the sum total of the nations productions indicated a prosperity beyond compare, the great bulk of the producers were chronically hard "up," while those who through Republican granted privilege controlled the production, distribution and price ' , fla-off- er - Kur-kowd- of those products, were accumulating colossal fortunes that we have had a form of industrial slavery no longer to be tolerated and rapidly reaching the bricks without straw, stage. That the result of the election was clearly foreseen to be inevitable and beyond Republican hope, or power of intimidation, was clearly indicated by the fact that those who control the nations purse strings, and those who, through Republican favoritism have gained control of the nation 8 industries the financial kings and in dustrial barons deemed it useless to resort to the plans heretofore deemed effective, of tightening np the purse strings and closing down in dnstries, in pretended fear of a Democratic victory, and as a warning to the wage slaves" of what they might expect. In connection with the workingman, after fifty years of almost uninterrupted Republican rule, how few, in proportion to the millions employed, own their own homes. Consider the case of the farmer, the most prosperous of all those engaged in the productive pursuits. A Census Bureau bulletin notes that there are 6,361,502 farms in the land; that of 3,948,722 of them, 1,327,439 are mortgaged; an increase of more than seventeen per cent over 1900. Of the remaining 2,412,780 farms, the report is silent as to mortgages, but does indicate that 58,104 are conducted by managers, and that 2,354,676 are occupied by tenants therefore that not one is tilled by the owner in person in other words, nearly one third of the farmers of the country'are too poor to own the soil they till. It was the growing knowledge of such conditions that caused the great slump that could not he stayed. It not only added largely to the Democratic vote, but caused a great rush of Republicans to the support of 'Colonel RooseVelt, selected as the standard bearer of the partys progressive element, pledged to the destruction of special privilege, but not sufficiently progressive to join the Democarts. The Democratic majority in the House has been largely increased, and the Republican majority in the Senate reduced to such an extent that with what aid can be expected from progressive Republican Senators, and the pressure af public opinion in the same direction, some great reforms can be instituted during Mr. Wilsons -- low-tunnel- better-directe- - hand-to-han- d. - |
