The Manitowoc pilot. [volume] (Manitowoc, Wis.) 1859-1932, 1886-06-24

The action of Henry Ward Beecher in
Offering his services to Gladstone is a
most magnanimous one. He does not
want to be sent to those places in which
the sentiment toward home rule is favor
able. He wants to work in these places
where work is most needed. He wants
to do all he can for Ireland because she
has been oppressed.
There is something in the action of
this grand man which should hberalize
the Irish people and make them feel that
brotherhood is not hemmed in by creed
distinctions. If Orangemen fight home
rule for sectarian reasons, Protestant
clergyman, loaded with years and suffer
ing from overwork, tenders his services
to the Irish people during the period of
his vacation. The Irish people, and par
ticuiarly Irish Catholics, should remem-
Der this and it should soften the asperi-
ties of religious differences. Bigotry is
not confined to any one denomination
and the Catholic has always looked with
distrust upoa the clergymen of other
denominations. A man can be devoted to
his own church without being uncharit-
able IN mis- opinions regarding the
churches of other denominations. 1t
does not matter what church Henry
Ward Beecher belongs to, he is acting as
his conscience and his manhood dictates,
and IN direction in which his efforts
will be fruitful of good. His action can
not fail to broaden the sympathies and
enlarge the views of the Irish people.

IT is the fashion in English politics
for the leaders to open political cam
paign by issuing a manifesto. Lord
Churchill in following the general prac-
tice takes occasion to heap lot of coarse
abuse on Gladstone. Churchill Is young
man, ambitious end not without ability
but his vanity far exceeds his merit. He
is mainly DESTROYS of doing that which
will attract attention and his attack on
Gladstone has its root in this desire
When he speaks of "senile vanity" in
referring to the greatest statesman of the
age, he justly earns the contempt of
every one.

GRNERAL BRAGG properly represented
the views of the young democracy of this
slate when he assailed Randall and the
democrats whom he led in opposition to
the Morrison bill. It took a man of
courage to do it and Bragg was equal to
the occasion. 1t is high time that the
treachery of Randall and democrats of
lis class be characterized in the terms it
deserves, and there is satisfaction in
knowing that there is one democrat who
does not hesitate to express his views
and those of the state he SO ably repre-
SCENTS. While democrat does not lose
caste with his party for acting treacher-
ously toward it, there can be no party
principles which it is incumbent on him
to support. Randall's report called forth
cheers from the republican side of the
house. This circumstance of itself is
sufficient to make it proper no longer to
regard him as a democrat. Particularly
as it was a speech in opposition to the
one vital principle which gives reason
for the existence of the democratic party
as political organization. Randall pro
nounced himself the peer of Bragg. He
is not so in honestly representing the
party in which he claims membership.
On the only question of moment on which
there was party division his voice and
iisvote We're with the republicans and his
sction was applauded by them.

The tariff bill introduced by Morrison
was defeated last week in the house.
Only four republicans voted for the con-
sideration of the bill while a number
of democrats, mainly from Pennsylvania,
Ohio and Louisiana voted against it. It
does seem strange that the people will
persist in believing that burdensome
taxes are blessing and that the govern
ment should have a revenue greatly in
excess of its needs. In local affairs this
idea would be hooted down with the de-
rision it deserves, but in national affairs
the people are pronounced in favor of
high taxes under the pleasing name ''pro-
lection"
Morrison's defeat is to be regretted.
But the democratic party is largely to
blame. 1t has not yet made tariff reform
distinct issue, and those who vote against
areduction, feel that the hesitating policy
of the party on this question enables
them to do SO and still keeps up pre-
tense Of allegiance to the party. Let
reform of the tariff be made party issue
and let men select their party by their
votes on this question. c

? elton was applauded by them.

DELANEY persists in his statement that
Bragg cannot be a candidate and he
appears to think this a matter of con-
graduation for the democrats of the state.
1t is the most peculiar position ever a
man of sense assumed; posing as bene-
factor of the public for having man.
ipulated convention so as to prevent
the candidacy of a man in whom the
state justly takes pride! Will this man
who has done such pre-eminent service
for the state be frank enough to admit
whence came the demand for the retire
ment of Bragg upon the accomplishment
of which he plumes himself with such
gracious egotism2 Does he look for

my candidacy The ''three delegates"
IN accepting Mr.. Delaney as an exemplar
If political ethics are acting in perfect
harmony with their initial movement in
conspiring with Dodge county to drive
Bragg out of Congress
Delaney was not a party to the con-
tract. He did not sign 1T. Herein he
showed that proficiency in the cunning
Of caucus politicians which years of ap-
plication give. While Bragg was earn
lug reputation as lawyer and legislator,
Delaney was perfecting himself in the
ingenious methods of the wire-puller.
The agreement gives internal evidence Of
each mans past employment. Delaney
IS not party but he is the custodian
and the beneficiary of the agreement; in
the latter character under the euise of
dItinition-''any man whom Dodge
county might choose to present" And
re proposes to profit by it. Az, even
demands praise for retiring Bragg to
private life.
