ANOTHER defection.
Prof. Willard C. Flaher, who occu
pies the chair of economics and no
dal science In Weeleyan University, at
Middletown, Conn., and who hitherto
hat bean counted In the Hepubilcnn
ranks, has come out with the flat-foot,
ed announcement that he feele com.
pelted to support the economic doc
trines of ths Democratic party. Thla
earnest student of the labor problem
and scholar and sconorolat of wide
reputation haa reached the conclusion
that "the beet Interest of the country
at large, and especially of the working
people, will be promoted by Democrat
lo success." lie says, for example:
I believe that the pretent "rderof
rutv dry's grave injustice to a force i
Uon of the community, hut that t he nec
,tur* change* eltould be mad* with •*
treme caution, gradually, and on aafe
ana sure Unea. The present conditions
of life srs altogether loo hard for a tar*"
part Of the tailoring classes The dlatn-
i.utlon of the comforts end luxuries of life

i.ortlon to desert among dltTsrent classes

t.ny of equality of that sort Is possible 01
desirable. Dut nevsrtliclcse the Ineausl
Ittss of present conditions are out of all
pioporllon to desert.
It Is further shown by thlr coursgo
ous proteseor that "In our land
boaeled equality, ons per cent, of the
families has mors wealth than the oth
cr 99 per cent;” and that even In Uaata
chusette at the taking of the last cen
sua M per cent, of the 411,090 laborers
were receiving lees than 110 per week.
The present ruling powers are not go
ing to do anything to bring about bet
ter condition!. "It Is ray tlx«t convic
tion," assarts Prof. Flatter, "that It Is
hopeless to look to the Republican par
ty for the establishment of social and
c onomlo JusUcs. Ths great mass of
the vetted Interests Is Republican.
• • • It Is. therefore, Idle to suppose
that a party so constituted end doml
bated will soon advocate the needed
toguure* of progress" Decause he re
f, Kurds the labor problem as tho great
future problem of thla country, and be
cause he eees In the Democratic party
a "stronger historic Impulse toward the
lust solution of that problem," Prof.
Fisher now turns hls back on Itepubll

All this trill be denounced ea the
ravings of a theoretical and untrust
worthy collsgs professor, but thsra Is
nevertheless s strong flavor about It
of souud common ssnse. Ws trust that

sign- and that he will continue the
good work he has undertaken.
things Republicans are urged to vote
for Wataon because: "He la the strong
est men against Parker In Georgia;
therefore vote fdr Wataon!"
By parity of reasoning Populists
ought to vote for Roosevelt In the
close states because "he Is the strong
est man against Parker" In these
states; therefore vote for Roosevelt
The small difference In title apptsl

has been completed.
Routino Business.
The principal part of the work done
yesterday was routine and consisted
principally in the appomtment of com
mittees and the reports of those who
have served during the past year.
Thin was true of both afternoon and
night sessions. This will be contin
ued this morning and when completed
the grand lodge will adjourn for the
session. It Is thought that their work
will be done by 1 o'clock nnd the Ma
sons will leave for their homes.
The report of the financial affairs
of the grand lodge Is said to be full
of interest on account of the fact that
it will show a large surplus of cash in
the treasury of the grand lodge. This
report will be made at the session of
this morning.
The session of last night consisted
tho work of the committee and their
reports and the body continued the
work until 10 o’clock. An effort was
made to dispose of the business before
the body so that the final work could
done during this morning and the ad
journment could take place this after
noon.-

as “first-class;” they have their re
gions; one’s region Is large, another’s
is small; everyone Is “first-class’' In
its region.
Of these 30 or 40 or 50, one Is best,
another next, and so on down; but the
prices are all the same or about the
same—you can buy one for less than
another though; a personal matter
sometimes.
But how, do you think, can Devoe
sell the best for no more than the rest?
The answer Is: it costs less to sell It;
more to make, less to sell. Reputa
tion helps sell It. Its ICO years help
sell it.
