Americas Greatest Stump Speaker

Americas Greatest Stump Speaker.
A newspaper correspondent furnishes
some interesting facts about famous
stump speakers in this country in recent
years. There is much difference of opin-

But Chauncey Depew believes that
Americas greatest stump speaker was
Abraham Lincoln. Now as men are ha.
ginning to look back over his history, il
is apparent that Lincoln was really the
most sagacious and farseeing statesman
OF his day. It looked, indeed, as if he'
dreamed always Of the time when he
himself should be called to be leader
OF men. In the little low lying town in
which he praeticed law in Illinois he
learned the eloquence-the marvellous
power and purity of English expression
which characterized his later messages
ana speeches. The writer mentions how

Bible, logic and Euclid--grammar. too

"FA1RNEss in Politics." is the
caption of an editorial in a recent
issue of the St. Paul Globe, dis
cussing the Legislative apportion-
ment of Wisconsin. The candor
of the partisan Globe is commend
able. It says:
The legislative apportionment made
by the Wisconsin legislature at the ses-
sion last winter is brought into court
as violation of law in many of it's de-
tails. The requirements as to conven-
fence and compactness of the districts
have been ignored. AS portrayed in
the State papers, there are districts
that could only have been outlined bv
the famous serpent that winds in and
out, and the population is double or
more in some, than others. The
Madison Democrat, the central organ
OF the Democracy, is not sparing in it's
censure Of the work. It says it is a
gerrymander that goes beyond the
worst acts of the Republicans. It is
creditable to the Madison paper that it
has the courage to denounce the wrong
when perpetrated by its. own party.
The legislature last winter was car
ried by the Democrats on tidal wave
OF reform, and it was in keeping with
the spirit OF the situation to inaugu-
rate new departure in fairness and
equity in the apportionment. But the
was not improved, and the
party is held responsible for the per-
version OF justice. It is not satisfac-
tory to say that Republican precedents
were followed.

Wage Workers Pay the Taxes.

Every month two or three of the cur
rent magazines have essays on the mis-.
government of American cities. This
month Murat Halstead, in The Cosmo.
politan, has his whack at the question.
His remedy is the 'self education of
the workingmen," and the opening of
their eyes to the fact they are the ones
who pay the taxes. When once thew
realize this fact, for fact it is, then they
will rise in their strength and sweep as
with new broom political jobbery and
rottenness from American municipal adj
ministration. Mr.. Halstead says of the
workingmen:
Ii they would only come to the conclusion
that they pay all the taxes-and they do so in
the same sense and to the same extent that
they produce the property-they could at once
redeem the cities. The workingmen and their
wives and children are the vital forces of onr
greatest communities, and would rule them if
they were not themselves misguided We do
not ask the Worklngmen to be members of one
OF the great political parties. If one party. no
matter what its profession and persuasion in
local affairs, is very long in complete posses

assured place among the leaders of fash
ion and social customs in the country.
Whether the aim is worthy the ambition
is question for each to decide for him
self.
But nothing is truer than that all cir
cles are connected in the way we men
ton. TO be a part of one of the atoms
that form molecule is to have the pos
slblllty of touching the molecule at the
top, since in the kinetic theory of matter
the molecules are in state of eternal
motion, and there is no telling when any
one may come against any other. The

is trite truth that here in America all
these qualifications are within reach of
every human being, even to the getting
rid OF our national nasal twang and the
acquiring Of a sweet, clear voice. It is
a fact that the voice stamps the breed
ing infallibly, when. perhaps nothing
else will. Lady Henry. Somerset, who
came to America to speak on temperance,
has voice which is mentioned in the
newspaper reports wherever she goes, SO
clear, soft and sweet it is. For genera

been taught to speak in such tones, and
this musical voice, which is SC admired
in America, is the result. ..... 4
