DEFEAT SEEMS SURE
History to Repeat Itself With
Democratic Party.
Recent Tariff Revision Which Has
Benefited Nobody Will Surely
Cause a Revulsion of Feeling
Among Voters.
The New York Times in trying to
persuade itself that then* in no truth
in the axiom that u revision of the
tariff leads to the defeat of the party
revising it. There is no logical or
necessary association between tariff
revisions and swift following party
reverses. Hut experience has estab
lished a very close connection be
tween them
There have beeu five big tariff re
visions since the war. The Repub
licans lost control of the house of
representatives after passing the tariff
acts of 1S82. 1S90 and 1909. The
Democrats lost the house uiftor pass
ing the tariff act of 1894. In only oue
instance has a revision not led to
party disaster. The Republicans re
vised the tariff In 1597 and retained
control of the house of representatives
In 1S98 by a narrow margin. Hut tho
Spanish war had intervened, and tho
chief issue in the campaign of 1R98
was not the tnrlff, but ••imperialism.’*
This full the axiom will have an
other try-out. Its knock-out percent
age so far Is .800. and according to
past performances the odds against
the Wilson administration are four to
one. In the present temper of the
country these odds are fairly Justi
I fled. The tariff revision of 1913 has
I not helped the consumer and has hit
many producers hard. There Is no
i Rood reason why It should not carry
i th< Democratic party down to defeat.
Democrats on the Defenalve.
A Rain of 73 congressmen by the
Republican party will put It In control
of the house of representatives and
enable It to checkmate the enactment
of laws which It may not approve.
The prospect of a Republican house
Is unquestionably the reason why the
administration Is lashing congress on
the anti-trust measures at this time.
If the laws are not passed at this ses
sion. It la likely that they will not be
passed at all. In the form desired by
the administration.
Republican members of the house
of representatives are eager to begin
the fn.ll campaign. They believe that
the record of the administration fur
nishes an abundance of material for
reversing the Democratic majority In
the house. They point to the business
depression as affected by the tariff,
coupled with the steady Increase In
the cost of living; the failure to settle
the Mexican question; the repeal of
| tolls exemption; the proposal to pnv
$25,000,000 and apologize to Colombia
I f<*r alleged wrongdoing; the disturb
ance to business on account of threat
ened drastic and unnecessary legisla
tion; the breakdown of the govern
ment's foreign policy, and numerous
other matters which have aroused
public criticism. g
The Democratic administration Is
necessarily on the defensive. It can
not win by making promises, because
It Is In n position where the perform
ance of obligations, and not the mak
ing of them, is In order. Kvery devia
tion from the Tialtlmore platform con
stitutes a point of weakness, and the
violation of the canal tolls plank alone
will call for the most energetic de
fense on the part of the administra
tion’s friends.

Kniillano Zapata la tho leader of
the constitutionalist forces In south
ern Mexico. In describing this man.
Francisco Urquldl. a constitutionalist
aKcnt. the other day said:
"Zapata is a peon of Morelos. He
conics from a state In which tho land
Is held In fee simple by less than two
dozen landlords. He worked out In
the fields with fellow peons. He Is
an uneducated man, because ho had
no opportunity to net learning. Ho
can read and write, but he learned to
do these after lie was twenty-one
years old. He Is now thirty eight
years old and is a wiry, slim built man
slightly under six feet In height. Hu
Is a half-breed, but the Indian blood
does not show us strong in him us
It does in many of his followers. Ho
is light-complexloned, energetic, and
Is a dreamer in that he sees things as
they might be and is not contented
with them us they are.
"Zapata stands for the peasant
ownership of some of tho lands the peon tills. He 1ms worked for the big
piicnr companies for years. During that time he received the least possible
pay the companies could give him und his fellow workers. He did not receive
this pay in money, but In orders on tho company's store fbr the simple food
he ate and the cloth to make tho clothes that partly cover Ids body. For six
months of the year he worked hard and for the other six months ho was
forced to sit hack and starve while ho waited for another crop of the sugar
cane so that he could get busy In the fields. Ills condition was the condition
of the peons generally.
"Zapatlsm is an Idea the peons think worth lighting for. They will not
be content until they can get some of the land for their own. If Carranza
does as he promises—and 1 am certain ho will do so tho peasants will get
land for their own. If he does not carry out the needed reforms and do It
promptly he will be forced to fight Zapata und the Zapatista.
"These men have been fighting for years. They fought niaz. they fought
Madero and they fought Huerta.”
MURRAY’S PLEA FOR MILEAGE
“Where do members of congress
who come to Washington without their
families spend their time at night?”
This question was discussed In
the house the other day by Alfalfa
Hill Murray of Oklahoma In connec
tion with the mileage provision of
the conference report on the legisla
tive bill. Alfalfa Hill insisted that it
>vus the duty of all members to bring
their families to Washington with
them, and lie Insisted that that was
why It was desirable to make a liber
al allowance for mileage.
The Oklahoma statesman declared
that in the absence of a man’s family
time was likely to hnng heavily on
his hands and he would do morn
roaming around at night than was
good for him Alfalfa Hill wanted
all members to have their families
with them constantly throughout the
sessions in order that they might not
grow lonesome.
"Abraham Lincoln, Daniel Web
f t. janus usrnein, uilMain J. Hryan and others all took thla allowance
P tM.n they were In the houae. an,! who would dare accuse any of them of
mw- krafters. Raid Mr. Murray. The house rocked with applause n» Alfulfa
