ARE PARTIES BREAKING UP?
r
N ANSWER to the question. "Are
political parties breaking up?"
the Boston Globe publishes sev
eral Interesting answers by
prominent men of that city. James
Every Interest representing power p. GUI, collector of internal revenue,
and wealth in the Republican party jsays:
aay "yes." Mr. Taft says "yes, but I "Party lines have been strongly
not after 1909." Mr. Roosevelt I arreciea in tne last ten years ana
' says "yes, but not after the next
I - election." On the contrary, the Re-
I .- . publicans, who are not politicians,
' ., the farm-owning, toiling, struggling
masses, say "no." They demand re
vision. They need revision. But
they won't get it. They are prom
ised revision, now that an election
In" coming on. ' They were promised
It on the eve of the last presiden-
tlal election. They were promised
it at the election before that. They
have been , promised it for 20 years.
But the Interests that fatten on
standpatlsm do not want It. The
. beneficiaries of, the tariff are de-
ternjlned that there shall be no re
vision. They are a cohered, com
pact mass that bas furnished the
power, and kept the party In con
trol of the government, with slight
exceptions, for 40 years. They are
the heart and lungs and body of the
party, The party can no more throw
,v ' them off and retain its strength than
a man can throw away bis body, and
with his legs, armB and head, be still
a man with strength and life. The
''interests" are antl-revlslonists now,
they always have been, and they will
be forever. Between them and the
revision-demanding masses there is
' an uncrossable gulf. It is as wide
y as a continent, and deep as the
ocean. Their desires and purposes
are as widely separated as the poles.
They can no more mix on the sub
ject of the tariff than can fire and
water. On which side of this gulf,
as unbridgable as the antipodes, are
the real Republicans? What is a
- Republican?
Is the real Republican a reaction-
' ary, or a progressive? The differ-!
i ence between a reactionary and a
progressive comes from the appro
priation into Republicanism by Mr.
RooBevelt of certain policies from
i:,. Democratic platforms. Regulation
, and control of railroads was never
in a Republican platform. It has
v,s been in many Democratic platforms.
Prom the latter it was fcorrowed by
Mr. Roosevelt. Control and curbing
of the trusts was never In a Republi
can platform. It has been in many
Democratic platforms. It was bor
rowed from the latter by Mr. Roose
i( velt. So with the income tax. It
was never in a Republican platform.
It has been in many Democratic plat
forms. It waB appropriated from
I Democratic platforms by Mr. Roose
. yelt and made a jpolicy of his admin
,lstration. And so on with every
. , policy in the program of the pro
gressive wing of
party. They are
made by national Democratic plat-
forms, never hinted at in national
Republican platforms, appropriated
by Mr. Roosevelt, and now made car
dinal "principles . in progressive Re

clal. Mr. Harriman in a recent in
terview complained that In spite of
the increase In equipment his roads
could not get cars enough to take
care of the prospective traffic What
is the matter with the railroads,
then? They have been making enor
mous dividends, on a far less volume
of business and on freight rates In
some cases .lower. The 2 -cent fare
laws are only a flea bite. Shutting
off deadheads together with the In
creased travel more than equalizes,
It is supposed, the loss occasioned
by the reduction of fares. The rate
law hasn't hurt the railroads, rather
benefited them. They are doing a
bigger and better business than ever,
and the prospect Is for bigger and
better business still. Why then this
depression In stocks? They must
have had an Inflated value. The
water Is leaking out. It is a healthy
operation. If the railroads cannot
borrow the money they need, it is
some of the big panic-predicting rail
road men themselves rather than
the government who are the cause
of this cautiousness. And then it
Is easy for a lot of big financiers to
agree together to 'say that money is
tight. If the railroads will attend
to their legitimate business and be
careful to obey the laws they wIJJ

Dr. John Roach Straton preached his
farewell sermon yesterday morning and
evening at the White Temple. At the
evening service, before beginning his
sermon. Dr. Straton expressed his appre
ciation of tha many courtedles shown
him during his visit, and said that he
had greatly enjoyed his trip to "this
wonderful western land."
Dr. Straton then preached upon the
subject "Practical Holiness." taking the
position that the Bible did not teach
that we were to claim slnleaa perfec
tion: that It aet before us the high ideal
of the perfection of God's character to
emulate and to follow, but that It was
hurtful for anyone to claim perfect holl-
naaa or slnleaa perfection because of the
unfortunate Influence that It had, both I

is only the half-rich man who boasts
of how much he has.
' Further, if we Degln to entertain the
thought that we are perfectly holy and

are apt to assume an outward demeanor
which has an unfortunate Influence. It
Is observed that thone who claim sinless

policies seek to correct are universal

the appeal of the Roosevelt admin

Winslow Warren, collector of the
port of Boston, says that the Demo
crats ought to unite on tariff reform
as the paramount issue, because it
"Is and always has been the real.
effective instrument for the regula
tion of the trusts. A great many
people who are not and never could
be Republicans on principle are daz
zled1 by the spectacular assaults upon
the trusts and by the noise and
smoke of battle which are not di
rected against the citadel of monop
oly at all, which is the tariff." Mr.
Warren says the Democratic princi
ples are as old as the constitution,
but the party lacks leadership, needs
a man like Til den.
Philip J. Doherty, assistant dis

Oregon Sidelights
The Tacoma News criticises The
Journal unfairly by quoting only half
of a recent paragraph, and thereon
basing a representation that The
Journal Is opposed to the construc
tion of the Harriman line between
this city and Tacoma. What The
Journal complained of was not an
other railroad between Portland and
Taccma, which considered apart
from the other part of the proposi
tion we are glad to see built, but
the taking of millions of money made
by Harriman in Oregon to expend
on a road that is not especially or
urgently needful to this state, and
leaving two thirds of Oregon, that
urgently needs railroads, without
any, year after year. As we said,
he Is doing' this "to get even with
Hill," and in the prosecution of this
fight is doing Oregon Incalculable

said, than any man ever did any

WOMAN'S OBEDIENCE.
Not
by Force, Bat Through Love,
Says Rev. Everett Hill.
A sermon that Is certain to srnuaa
much discussion, particularly among the
gentler sex. was preached last nla-ht
at the Taylor street Methodist church
by Rev. Everett M. Hill on "The Toung
Woman Who Found Her Master." Dr.
Hill took for his teat Luke 10:39.
"Mary sat at Jesus' feet and heard hla
word," and pointed out that real hao-
piness was not woman's lot until she
round her master. The srlfted sneaker
held that the obedience prompted by
love and not produced by force Is the
only obedience a woman should Show
her husband.
Dr. Hill said In part:
"Evei-y woman, to find her greatest
usefulness and blessedness, needs to
find her master. I am not saying that
every woman to be happy needs to mar
ry, but I believe that the happiest mar
riages are those where the man is
master, and both the wife and husband
know it, but neither outwardly recog-1
nize u. i nat man wno marries a woman
and expects to make her obey him
In everything will find it a hard task.
Obedience from will and from love are
two different things. I am always glad
whenever I perform a wedding ceremony
that there is no such word as obev in
the service of the church. I do not
believe In demanding that a woman
shall obey a man, but I do believe in de
manding that a woman Is haDDler If she
can feel that her husband is worthy of
Deing ooeyea oy ner, ana sne does deep

and not because he has the power to

The man who forces a woman to
obey him because he is 'stronger than
sne, is no nigner than the brute beast
It is the strong forcing obedience from
the weak, and it is a sin. The com
pulsion of love, which makes obedience
the choicest pleasure. Is tha only obe
dience a woman should give to mortal
man.
But the only way a woman will find
herself most perfectly happy Is through
finding her master In the nerson of
Jesus Christ."
