RETIREMENT.
Nobody need be surprised at the
report that Senator Joseph W. Bailey
Is to stop out of office at the end of
his term In 1913. For several years
paat he has been out of harmony with
his party on essential issues. He was
against Bryan and the domlnent el
ment of. the Democrats on free silver.
On the tariff he has opposed some of
the measures of his party. He Is
against It on the Initiative, referen
dum and recall. All three of these
questions have been of some conse
quence ,and the two last-named are
still before the country, and will give
trouble to the Democratic party In
1912.
A generation of Democrats have ap
peared upon the scene who know not
Joseph, and Joseph recognizes this
fact Wild men like Williams of
Mississippi are at the front in Demo
cratic councils these days. In a con
troversy between the Mississippi man
and the Texan a few months ago on
the question of "What Is a Demo
crat?" the Misslsslpplan declared that
the Texan's credentials were bogus.
And he was right If Williams and
his incoming colleague Vardaman are
Democrats, Bailey Is not For a short
time after going to the Senate Bailey
was looked upon aa a sort of a leader,
He held that post for a few years In
the House," and there was a general
opinion that he would gain It in the
Senate. But the defects of tempera
ment which prevented him from be
ing a success as a party chieftain In
the popular chamber impeded him In
his newer field. Democrats of much
less natural ability exerted far great
er' influence than he did, or than he
ever could.
Nevertheless, Bailey's retirement
will help to call attention to the Ir
repressible conflict in the Democracy
which threatens to render Us life
rather troublesome to Itself in the
next few years. Speaker Clark,
Chairman Underwood and the other
men who are In the inner council of
the party in the House say that the
tariff will be at the front in the cam
paign of 1912. They are correct It
was at the front in the extra session,
will be prominent in the session
which opens in Dec. and stands a
chance to be paramount in the can
vass next year. The only doubt as
to its paramountcy lies In the uncer
tainty as to whether the Democratic
platform will give greater or less
prominence to the initiative, referen
dum and recall.
WOMAN SUFFRAGE IN
COLORADO.
The opponents of equal suffrage
have been circulating a statement
that Denver has a great amount of
Juvenile crime presumably due to
mothers neglecting their children for
politics. Judge Lindsey calls this an
"outrageous slander." He says that
most of the children's offenses are
"of a trivial character," and that dur.
lng the year 1910, out of a school
population of 50,000, only 49 children
were so persistently delinquent as to
be complained of a second time.
Judge Lindsey adds: "The police of
ficers of Denver would, I am sure,
cheerfully testify that the criminal
conditions among youths that for
merly existed In Denver have not
only decreased, but the serious cases
that we formerly had to cope with
from exceptionally bad gangs have
almost entirely passed away." In
this connection let it be also noted
that all the state officers of the
Colorado W. C. T. U. have signed a
published statement that equal suf
frage does not demoralize women or
make homes unhappy, and that in
Colorado "nothing Is' so feared by
corruptionists as the vote and In
fluence of women." None of this Is
news to anybody who has taken the
pains to look Into affairs In Colorado.
the same corrupt sources In th.it
state, are propagated through the
same corrupt channels elsewhere, ami
are swallowed by the same gullible
Innocents from which, through which
and by 'whom scandalously false stor
ies about Judge IJndsey have come,
and been propagated and swallowed.
EDUCATION AND MONOPOLY.
The thirst for education and the,op-
posltlon to consolidations known an
trusts are two of the most moving
Impulse of our strenuous life. If
anybody had dec;-,ntred of education
In this country, or If doubts have ob
truded themselves Into patriotic
minds that the people would not rally
against combinations In restraint of
trade, let the troubled eyes turn to
ward Stebenvllle, Ohio, In the shad
ow of which lies Sclo, a seat of learn
ing. The seat of learning Is Sclo
College, a Methodist Episcopal insti
tution of some endowment, a consid
erable faculty and library, and a grow
ing field of usefulness.
Lately, the trustees have concluded
that the field of usefulness could be
widened throuph a merger with Moun
tain College, a smaller Institution not
far away. This step, threatening a
possible removal of the college of
Sclo, was deprecated by the popula
tion of that place, who Insisted upon
the Pierian spring being left in their
midst But the full force of the op
position was not realized until Mon
day, when R. Emery Bleetham, the
president of Sclo, in going to the rail
way station to take a train for a Jour
ney which would complete the mer
ger, found himself beset by a mob.
hooting. Jeering and casting eggs
which it was no extravagance to waste
even in this era of high cost of liv
ing. The arrival of the train afforded
him a timely shelter, and on his re
turn at night he was protected by the
sheriff end the marshal.
Such a hunger for knowledge In
Sclo is not to be despised, and cer
tainly nobody will dare, In these thun
derous days of denunciation of all
forms of combination, to defend the
merging of two institutions of learn
ing into one. If it be a benefaction
to make two blades of grass grow
where only one has grown, can It b
a benefaction to make one college out
of two? Sclo has sat upon the case
and decided that such a combination
is unreasonable within the purview of J
the Supreme Court's decision In the
Standard Oil case, and It may be able
to prove that it will be In restraint of
the trade of Sclo merchants and
boarding bouse keepers. At any rate
the stale egg, as an argument for
education and against monopoly has
appeared in Ohio.

TOl'LON. France, Sept. 25. More
than 300 officers and men of the
French battleship Llberte lost their
lives today when the ship was torn
apart and totally destroyed In the
harbor here by an explosion of her
magazines.
The battleship Republlque was
badly damaged and the battleship
Democratic and Verite suffered heav
ily from the masses of twisted Iron
and armorplute hurled upon their
decks.
This Is the greatest disaster that
has ever befallen the French navy,
and In magnitude is almost without
precedent in the annals of the
world's fighting ships.
Fire Causes Disaster.
The explosion which wiped out one
of France's most powerful battleships
occurred at 5:30 o'clock 'his morn
ing. It was the result of an out
break of fire. The flames spread
rapidly in spite of all efforts to ex
tinguish them, and reached the mag
azines before there was time to flood
them.

lilolto, the leading Liberal paper of
Canada comments as follows on the
result of the election:
"The government of Sir Wilfrid
I .mirier goes out of power on a great
Inane. Believing as It did, that the
offer of the I'nlted States to ex
change natural products with Canada
on a duty free basis would prove ad
vantageous to both countries, the gov
ernment risked Its life on the issue
of reciprocity and lost It.
"The people of Ontario don't like
their nelghlora to tho south. That Is
cmphattcally the decision of yester
day's election. Liberals in tens of
thousands must have Joined the Con
servatives In city nnd, country to
show their objections to having any
truck or trade with the Yankees.
"The other provinces, taken together,
have a majority for Lauricr nnd larg
er markets, but by an overwhelming
vote. Ontario has declared that she
will have nothing to do with recip
rocity. The campaign orators of the
Conservative party, during the lust
two weeks of the campaign, ap
pealed to the people of this province
to save Canada from the Americans.
They created a wave of feeling that
was not observable on the surface,
but that nevertheless swept the vo
ters from their political moorings In
numbers.

sentiment will speedily subside Is en

The assassin of Prince Ito, a
Korean, displayed great fortitude
during his trial and when sentence
of death was being passed upon him.
The date of his execution had been
fixed and was approaching when
word was conveyed to the authori
ties that the doomed man was en
gaged in writing a poem.
When the authorities were told
that six days would be required for
the completion of the poem they
very considerately postponed the
execution for that length of time.
When It had been completed the
mandate of the law was carried out.
In this country a man doomed to
die for taking the life of a fellow

of the state that had ordered his
death not only commuted his sen
