gressmen win) voted for the railroad bill.
A marked copy of a coast paper has been sent us in
which the editor sees in this action the opening gun in a
campaign to introduce a dictatorship of the proletariat.
".Mr. Plumb, backed by organized labor, is to hold a
loaded gun to the head of every honest congressman," de
clares the editor, "and either secure 1 i is promise of sup
port or take his political life. Carried to its logical con
clusion this means lliat organized labor is starting on t h'
dubious course of dirtat ing 1 lie policies of Ibis govern
ment, and placing a man in overalls in the White House.'"
We fail to see, in the evidence presented, any justifi
cation for this blood-curdling prediction. Mr. Plumb, it
appears to us, is merely doing what every American citi
zen lias a riht to do. Naturally Jie believes in the Plumb
plan, and quite as naturally he doesn't believe in the Cuin
niiiifi Esch plan. On a perfectly straight-forward issue he
is appealing for Ihe support of the electorate, asking
them to vote against the congressman who he believes to
be in the wrong. ' ","

Tf this is the opening gun in a campaign to introduce n
dictatorship of Ihe proletariat, then Air. lJryan'.s .cross-of-go'd
speech was the opening gun to introduce .a dicta
torship of the silversmiths.
Of course, the entire business is absurd. Put it shvs
it twist of mind which we fear is typical of it certain type of
panic-stricken. Tory at the present, 1inie. JJecause. labor is
entering polities, he can see nothing but; a sinister plot to
massacre capitalists and put a union label on tlie dome of
the national capital. . .:.,
As long as ,Mr. Plumb appeals to the fair-minded judg
ment of the. American people, as expressed at the polls, Air.
Plumb is well within his rights. Alorc than that he should
be encouraged in his course. For there in the free battle
of ballots, is-Democracy's insurance against disaster.
The only way Air. Plumb can secure, 4,he Plumb plan
is In persuading the American people the Plumb plan is
what they want. The only dictatorship he or any one else
can establish by the methods lie has adopted is the dicta
torship we have always enjoyed the dictatorship of the
American people.
So few -people seem to realize that world opinion is a
force just as domestic opinion is a force, the ulliinatu
force in fact. "With world opinion in favor of organizing
