The sur­ prising thing about it all is what a little thing turned the «cale at the last The scales which the weight of the elephant was unable to bring down, which had resisted a heavy weight of obligation to a party, which not even the rolling out of another barrel of Missouri boiirlsm bad moved, and which were an close set, last Saturday night, that Taft could not weigh a fraction of au ounce more than Roosevelt upon them, suddenly show a moving tieam when a letter weighing less than one ounce, and saying only that the president is still standing pet, was dropped upon them The letter came from the president's private |secretary and stated that the president had suggested that the governor be in formed that he has in no wise changed hie view« as to president tai preference primaries since he expressed them fully in a speech delivered at Boston on March 8, last.

There is in thia occasion for both party and personal congratulation. Although governor of a state whicli boasts: “You have to show me,’’ Mr Hadley has not needed a house to fall upon him to make him tumble. A feather-weight missive, calling his attention to the fact, of which we had already advised him, that the president is on recdrd for presi­ dential primaries, and that “he has I in no wise changed his views,’’ has, in. the end, outweighed both the Republican elephant and his per­ sonal obligation to the Republicans of Missouri. We congratulate him upon his seeing at last that an honest man standing pat upon an honest principle is not a bad man to follow. Lately he has trained with a school of politicians seeking to make “standpat’’ a term of op­ probrium, but hie declaration for Taft, due to a letter from Taft’s sec­ retary that the president is standing pat on his Boston speech of last March, proves him capable of a degree of right discrimination which better marks the Republica n Progressive than the Progressive Republican. He is back in the ranks and while the battle can not now begin it can go on. -Globe De m oc ra t,_________________ Lined Assistant Democrats. Nothing is harder to find in the present campaign than converts to the Democratic party, Practically there are no such persons, That party has long been decadent, It attracts no new blood and is unable to vitalize any principle. Its latest national record is one of business calamity and general incompetency. Young voters can not be headed that way. and the majority of older voters are warned by experience. The only chance for Democratic success this year, or any future year, is in Republican division or apathy. It was the Republican failure to vote in 1910 that gave the Democratic party a lead in one branch of Congress and several states in which the Democrats have long been a minority. Next month a full vote will come out, and the party that reached its highest mark in uumbers sixteen years ago will inevitably be beaten unless the Re­ publican party is divided against itself. It is to Republican bolters that the old relic known as the regular Democratic party looks for success this year. Beaten heavily in the last four presidential campaigns that party, impotent as well as repudiated, lacks at least two mil­ lion votes of having half the elector­ ate. Its only hoi>e is in insurgent Republicans, and it knows that these will not directly vote the Democratic ticket. But their votes for a third party might serve the purpose. The third party may call itself by another name, but its proper title is Assistant Democrats. It can not elect its own ticket. It can only help the outworn, decay­ ing. iil omened regular Democratic party that lias had full control of the government but two years in the List fifty, and made that period a horror in business depression and national losses. The Assistant Democrats are also Second-Class Democrats.
