STAND BY THE PRESIDENT.
In tho courso of nn ablo nrtlclo In
tho Anderson, Ind., Dally Bulletin,
Dixon C. Williams, tho well known
Chicago manufacturer and Demo
cratic leader, says:
Tho position of tho Democratic
party and its management should bo
ono of comploto accord with tho pres
ident producing an activity which will
count in calling tho cntlro country to
his support Upon tho president's suc
cess depends, in my Judgment, tho
hopo for happiness, tho very safety of
tho lives nnd property of tho com
mon people of America, as well as of
tho world.
Let tho Xow disgruntled Democratic
and tho many Republican partisan
senators and congressmen cbntlnuo
their nefarious and shameful tactics,
proving dally tho president's asser
tion that tho Republican loadors in
Congress would do their utmost to
embarrass him. Let tho Republican
chairman contlnuo his indecent in
sults and unpatriotic conduct toward
tho prosldont tho peoplo will sottlo
with them soon for ninety por cent
of our citlzons nro with him; but, in
tho meantime tho authorities in tho
president's own oMclal, political or
ganization should wnko up, fight all
tho hardor for tho common good and
forget, It you please, that Republicans
havo been sometimes seemingly pre
ferred and mndo prominent, whllo
Democrats who would havo sorved
better wero loft out of places of
power and Importanco in governmen
tal positions and Ignored in Stato
Councils of Dofenso nppolntmcnts,
whore, as a result, treachery to tho
president and his policies has boen
tho gleeful rule.
Tho world is "still on flro," tho
conflagration may any moment reach
over into our blessed country and be
gin its work of devastation nnd
mighty destruction. Thnt party or
that organization which will unsol
flshly work to stem tho rush of tho
"red terror" will need no other re
ward.
Start and contlnuo a propaganda
among tho rich, tho employer class,
to impress them with their truo rela
tion to tholr employes. Do likewise
nmoug tho troublo makers, tho Im
ported firebrands, meeting thoir ar
guments with others of reason and
common sense This country's dan
ger now lies in tho back-wash from
tho uar, and falluro to appreciato tho
seriousness nnd extent of our social
unrest,
Tho administration is exerting its
A bettor understanding is bolng haul
between employer and employe. La
bor conditions aro steadily improving.
Many largo employers of labor see
conditions and aro inaugurating im
provements In dealing with their
helpers, which is bound to toll for tho
common good in a wonderful way.
Boost the administration! You havo
nothing to apologize for in Its record;
in every porformanco your prldo is
Justifiable. Boost our country! Ot
all countries tho greatest and bost!
Boost business! Business Is not bad
oxcopt comparatively. It Is improv
ing steadily desplto certain politi
cians who secretly hope for a depres
sion on tho ovo of tho next national
election becauso "they aro out and
want to got In." Tho glut In tho
labor market Is more apparent than
real. Our country Is In for a porlod
of business prosperity such as It has
never known. Tho tactics of politi
cians can only retard it.
In tha meantime, let the Domo
cratln party arlso to its wonderful op
portunities, kpep tho interests of tho
peoplo and country before political
party advantage uml the peoplo will
gratefully care for tho party. Don't
bo a waster! The development of the
constructive faculty Is much more no
ble than tho destructive. Sco to It
that tho Democratic party continues
to bo the greatest constructive forco
In thft world.

JAMES R. RIGGS
The new nsslstnnt secretary of ag
riculture, James R. RlggM, Is n farmer
not merely by way of Interest In the
subject, but by life-long, practical ap
plication. Farming has been his pri
mary occupation all his life. Moro
than thnt, ho Is n farmer by heredity.
His grandfather, Hcruklnli Rlggs, was
born on it farm In Loudon counly, Vir
ginia, In 1701. When ho was twenty
two years old be moved to Sullivan
county, Indiana, and engaged In farm
ing and llvo stock growing. Thcro
Commodore Terry Rlggs, father of tho
assistant secretary, was born and
thcro he spent his llfo as n fnrmer and
stock grower. All of Iih sons and alt
of his sons' sons hae been farmers.
James R. Rlggs was born at Shcl
burn, Intl., February 17, 1805. For two
yenrs after graduation from tho Sulli
vaw county high school, In 1882, ho

HENDERSON, BRITISH LABOR LEADER
Tho result of tho by-election ot
Whines, Lancaster, In which Arthur
Henderson, the labor leader, was
elected to tho houso of commons, Is
considered a hevero blow to tho coali
tion government. Henderson said his
victory was "nn emphatic condemna
tion of tho coalition government's
policy and of tho cynical political com
promise upon which tho government
rests." Henderson's recent expres
sions of his views lncludo these:
"Tho presviit world unrest menus
thnt tho old order of things Is in Its
death throes, that n now society is
about to como to Its birth nnd that age
long Injustices and Inequalities that
burdened tho llveS of tho common peo
plo nro to bo swept away. Cluss rulo
in politics Is doomed, but It Is still
doubtful whether tho Ideal of truo po
litical liberty will bo realized In this
or other countries without a violent
convulsion of socloty. Tho main prob
lem now Is to restore popular conlldenco In representative Institutions and to
guide tho movement ot tho musses along tho path of constitutional changes,
nnd to enable democracy to become master In Its own houso without violence"
ZITA SAYS AUSTRIA WAS "HELL"
It Is not to) 1 what reply Charles and tho dignitaries mudo to this emphatic
declaration. Doubtless sho stated Uj exact fact concerning her life In the

BUDGET SYSTEM
Gov. Henry J. Allen of Kansas
says of the movement to estnlillsh n
nntlotml budget system: "Tlio wnr
emphasized strongly tlio Inadequacies
of our legislative mnchlnury In prob
lems of national llnunce. No prlvnto
business concern would dare to rush
blindly Into things as docs congress.
This Is becnuso congress Incks n sound
system of providing public money for
the operation of the ten major execu
tive departments. Tho work of theso
agencies fun be established only
through the adoption of a new method
of budgetary procedure."
Governor Allen Is ono of 22 gov
ernors who are reported by the na
tional budget committee to favor the
substitution of tho budget system for
tho present system of departmental es
timates. The governors mndo many
remedial suggestions, Including the fol
lowing: A BORN FARMER
Secretary Joscphus Daniels of tho
navy is n capable spotlight artist, and
ho was conspicuously In tho public cyo
during hlu recent visit to tho Pacific
coust In connection with tho arrival of
tho licet. They do say that the
ofllclul motion pictures of tho secre
tary eating pol at Honolulu nro great.
Such delicacies us pig, roasted
wholo In tho ground, with tho nld of
hot rocks ; pol from tho mealy root ot
the tnro plant; seaweed and raw fish;
pudding mndo from taro, coconut and
coconut milk; beef and taro tops
cooked In tl leaves; sweet potatoes
roasted In a hole In the sand, nnd
many other viands dear to tho palate
of tho nntlvo Hawaiian, wero served
nt nn old-fashioned luau, or feast, In
his honor. Tho guests wero compelled
to cat with their Augers. Napkins
wero provided, howover.
Secretary Daniels did not hesitate.
Ho plunged two Angers Into n pol
j
Dr. Karl Renner hns 'signed tho
trcnty between tho allied and associat
ed powers and tho Austrlnn republic.
And this was tho end of tho houso of
Hnpsburg. Nevertheless dignitaries of
tho former Austrian regimo aro con
stantly renewing their requests that
former Emperor Charles attempt an
active part In Austrlnn affairs.
At ono of tho recent conferences
tho former Empress Zlta was present.
Sho was Princess Kltn of Bourbon and
Purmn. Sho hns spent tho greatest
part of her life In tho convent In which
sho was educated, Sho Is said to know
very llttlo nbout tho great world. Still
sho apparently has learned something.
After tho last conference had
lasted 'for three hours sho said:
"I hnvo had enough talking, gen
tlemen. Tho ilofburg was hell for us.
Wo havo done our duty to tho cud
and wo havo suffered enough. To re
turn Is nn Impossibility." .
