High Time for Politics

There must come time. even in the
course Of human events, when the man
who is governed will ask the government
to consider his personal condition. says
tue Chicago Herald. IL he have been
digging coal all his life. and find himself
naked and starving. he will turn to his
government. and demand to know what
manner of thing hath been wrought.
This question the miners Of Illinois and
Indiana are now addressing to the Ameri-
can government. Because politics has at
last touched the question-because the
orators are rafting the empty dinner
pails-tbere is Indignation among repub-
lican commentators. The republican
giver Of charity is incensed to know tina,
he has starved the life Of a democratic
proselyte. The atrocity OF uniting star
vatlon and politics becomes the text OF
many republican sermons.
Yet the miners were industrious in q
useful calling. They are starving. They
voted the republican ticket because they
were told they would starve il the taxes
were reduced. The taxes were patriot
cally maintained and starvation, prompt
In its apparition, Is now swceter to the
industrial stomach. Ii ever there was a
time when politics ought to appeal 10 a
