THURSDAY EVENING,
IHOW PIPER IS
BOOMING STUART
Tribune Declare! That He It the
Logical Candidate 'For the
Governorship
Under the caption of "The Logical
Candidate" the Altoona Tribune prints l
this editorial:
"In a recent editorial discussion of
prospective Republican candidates for
the office of Governor the Philadelphia
Bulletin declares that 'two names are
beginning steadily to come to the front
over and above those of all other can
didates who have been proposed or
mentioned —Philander C. Knox and
Edwin S. Stuart.' And while the
Bulletin names Knox first, It adds In
another part of its article that 'the
ex-Governor, with his far-reaching
! personal popularity in the rank and
file of the progressives, as well as of
the Republicans, not only hero, but In
the State at large, seems to be as
much stronger over Knox as Knox is
over all the others.'
"This statement gives the Tribune
an opportunity to repeat what it has
said upon various occasions during the
past few months, that the one un- !
assailable Republican candidate, the '
candidate with an impregnable rec
ord, would be former Governor Edwin
S. Stuart. During the campaign of
1906 he was fiercely antagonized by
the Democrats and their independent
allies. In his progress through the
State he took the voters into his con
fidence, telling them plainly, simply
and earnestly that in the event of his
election he would be the Governor of
all the people; that he would have the
Capitol scandal exhaustively and im
partially investigated; that if it was
discovered that any had robbed the
State he would do all in his power to
secure the triumph of justice and the
punishment of the guilty.
"The people believed him. Nobody
could look into his face, nobody could
listen to his voice without the over
whelming conviction that here was a
man and a statesman. The people be
lieved him. we say; and they made
him their Governor. He went to the
discharge of his high and responsible
duties with a single dominant pur
pose: he meant to serve all the people.
He originated, advised and encour
aged the Capitol investigation; he
sympathized with its purpose and ap
proved the action of the courts. When
efforts were made to secure the re
lease of the convicted men he frowned
upon- them and steadily declined to
encourage any movement having for
its purpose their pardon. In this and
all other matters his business sagacity,
his stern sense of probity, his love of
justice, his appreciation of the re
sponsibilities of his position, guided
him from the beginning to the end,
winning general confidence and ad
miration.
"During the four years in which
Edwin S. Stuart was the chief servant
of the people of Pennsylvania he per
formed his part with such clarity of
vision, with such single-hearted de
votion to the right, with such eminent
ability that the mouth of criticism was
shut. From the opening day of his
administration until he gave place to
his successor nothing was alleged
against him and he returned to pri
vate life amid the general praise of
all the people. We are not eulogizing
Governor Stuart; we are not paying
him unmeaning compliments; we are
simply recalling the facts of recent
history. In every official incident he
was true to the highest ideals. Recall,
for instance, his favorite road bill, a
measure upon which he had set his
heart. Yet, he resolutely vetoed it
when he saw that if it became a law
the helpless wards of the State might
not be properly cared for.
"Edwin S. Stuart is an ideal citizen.
He was a great Governor. He has a
warm place in the affections of an
overwhelming majority of his fellow
citizens. lie is a Republican, ani
mated by progressive sentiments, and
he has proved his worth by splendid
achievement. Edwin S. Stuart is the
logical Republican candidate. He must
be persuaded to subordinate private
inclination to public duty. Let Repub
licans everywhere rally around his
stainless standard."
PUBUCIfYTiiE BEST
WEHPON IN VICE FIGHT
[Continued From First Page]
lowers, but poor leaders— effective as
a rear guard, but worthless for scout
duty. The judge has some favorable
opportunities to excite a lethargic
public conscience, but to avail himself
of them is to earn a reputation as a
sensationalist—a result extremely dis
tasteful to the judicially minded. Im
memorial usage, the obligation of
judicial decorum, a conservative en
vironment and the inflexible letter of
the law combine to discourage judicial
Initiative. There is little to be hoped
for in this direction except that the
courts may be depended upon for gen
erous responses to a well-defined pop
ular demand for a thorough-going en
forcement of the law."
When Virtue Sleeps
Judge Carter, further along in his
letter, after discussing the adminis
tration and enforcement of the law,
says:
"In a state of political quietude
with no pronounced pressure for law
enforcement, the considerations that
make for a course of conciliation
toward influential lawlessness are ir
resistible to the average public official.
The inevitable result is that the sur
face is glosst'd over and*hat vice and
crime flourish underneath. There is
nothing more natural than this evo
lution of protected vice. It has its
genesis not so much in the corruption
as in the timidity of public officials;
but, once rooted, graft inevitably re
sults. The primary responsibility for
such conditions attaches to indiffer
ent, somnolent virtue. Virtue sleeps;
vice never does. Virtue awake is the
stronger and can always command
official allegiance; asleep, political do
minion is lost to her weaker adver
sary.
"In the darkness of public indiffer
ence society has been corrupted; in
the light of awakened conscience she
must be purified. Publicity is the
remedy. Insistent, persistent, relent
less publicity. Every soul that loves
Its fellow and hates the enemy of
humankind should delve for the truth
and proclaim it from the housetops.
Tho Church should wake from her
dreams of peace and enlist in the holv
war. To free society' from evil domi
nation It Is always necessary that the
truth be made known. This was
abundantly demonstrated in the cam
paign of publicity by paid newspaper
advertising recently conducted in At
j lanta, Ga.
"Upon the sheer reason of the thing,
as well as from the results accom
plished in Atlanta, I am persuaded
that everything in the way of law en
forcement and the suppression of legal
ized vice that Is possible of accomplish
ment through human agency may rea
sonably be expected to result from the
application of this one remedy—pub
licity. In it is the alchemy that will
transmute the base metal of public
indifference and official delinquency
Into the pure gold of active virtue and
efficient public service."
