NEW YORK POLITICS IN a nut
SHE'LL

The Democratic party in New
York has determined at all risks to
cut loose from its corrupt and mer-
cenary element, which is now
arrayed against ii, and viii vote
against Gov. Robinson.
The Republican party has thor
oughIy identified Itself with its cor
rupt and mercenary element, and
repealed its better element which
is now arrayed against it and will
vote for Gov. Robinson.
The eIimenated corruption of the
Democratic party and the cherished
and triumphant corruption of the
Republican party have joined hands
and are together working in the in
terest of Council. The better ele-
ments of both parties are united in
the interest of Robinson.
Which will beat ? Well, it Is
Gods truth fighting against the lies
and frauds Of the devil; unless
Gods cause prevails against that OF
the devil, il looks bad for the peo-
pie Of New York.

more conclusive than any individl-
uaI opinion, and that decision was
that the State IS absolute In matters
of elections, Congress having no
function in the matter but that Of
reading and recording the States
action.
1t il not then really true that
there ia any question Of State rights
between the parties at all. When
it suits the Republican to raise an
alarna upon the subject they are al
ways ready to do so, but. when IL
comes to strict specifications, they
recognize a. Constitutional ali that
the most exacting Democrat de-
n1ands-the Democrat demands the
Constitution az il is, the RepublI-
can admits and even contends that
State rights are in the Constitution
The truth Is that the whole Con-
stitution would have to be re-
modelled if State rights were ex-
plunged from 1t, for then the execu-
tive would be so enormously pre-
ponderant over ali other depart
ments that nothing short Of despot-
/ ism would result
What has made our powerful ex-
+ ecutive endurabIe has been the ex-
/ fstence Of the State governments.
Our executive, with larger dis
cretionary power over legislation
than any in Europe except Russia,
I is only kept in bounds by the fact
that go much Is done by the execu-
I tive authorities of the several
States. Imagine the whole Judicial
system, the regulation Of public
schools, the appointment Of officers,
now executed by the governors Of
the States, and the control Of the
Il elections besides, to be concentrated
in the hands of the President, and
we should have a government ex-
actIy resembling that Of France IN
I der the second empire, which Grant,
under the instructions Of Fourtou
and the French imperialists, has
been so carefully studying. Give
him the control Of State elections
alone, and all the rest will be easily
seized-the Constitution will De
nothing, the President everything
The control Of elections by the Fed.
eraI executive is not only uneonsti
tutionaI in letter and spirit, it IS IN
compatible with any part Of the
Constitution. That whole docu
ment would be waste paper in the
: hands of a President, who graspec
the ballot boxes with such power
as the Davenport laws invest hin
with.

MURDER followed by suicide
seems now to be a perfect naaslio In
men and women; they shoot their

and then blow their own brains out.
We use the term mania advisediy,
for it Is a form of insanity that is
affecting us. Psychologists have
long recognized what they term

in an Irresistible impulse to initiate
any very horrible act which has
taken possession Of their imagina-
ton Some years ago, in London,
man killed himself by throwing
himself from the top OF a monument
in that city very soon several 9th

necessary to prohibit access to the
monument to prevent a recurrence
of the act On the same princi-
