Thb political leasun of 1!)12 la an old one. A plurality beats a majority if tbe majority ia divided Bgalnat ilaelf. Thc milkweed la recommended a an addition to the menu. As the country baa another Democratic period on its bands the thistle also may be considered. Mr. Wilson received only 43 per cent of tbe tout vote in the United States. The Democratic party Is so far less than half that it abould even develop some modesty, Tub Democrats intend to try the bud get system of making appropriations, but Just now the people are more inter ested In tbe Democratic plan for raising revenue. Sixtren years ago Confess assembled with a Democratic period of lull control ahead. But no good citizen hopes that the results within the next two years will be a repetition of history. Much of Mr. Wilson's mail contains Democratic warning against Mr. Bryan aa a member of the cabinet. With or without a portfolio Mr. Bryan is War wick, and bia enemies may tnaite the most of it, Tr a Democratic referendum could be held at this lime tbe classified civil ser vice would be destroyed root and branch. Tbe wave of Democratic hunger hits Mr. Wilvon harder at Bermuda than any park by wireless. Under date nf December 5, a Washing ton, D. C, dispatch says: Secretary of War 8tlm son, by inference, to-day cored the promiscuous grsntlng of water rights to private interests in an address before tbe National Rivera and Harbors Congress here, "Tbe taxpayers of this country should get the benefits from these resources," be declared. "I am greatly interested in the question of tbe building of leveea on the Mississippi river. I am a thorough believer that this should be a national question. It was brought closely to my attention by the recent fl .ods and the work done by the War Department for tbe relief of hundreds. The control of the Mississippi liver approaches nearest tlia Panama Canal aa a national pro perty." Tbe policy of tbe Taft adminis tration baa all along been to safeguard the interests of tbe people In dealing with wster rights, as was shown during the recent session of Congress when the President vetoed tbe dam bills passed by that body favoring the giving awy of water power rights to private corpora tions.
