SENATOR JOHN S. BARBOUR.
Junior Senator from Virginia died
at his home in Washington, d. c.,
Saturday morning, at 6 o'clock.
The Senator attended his duties in
the senate as usual Friday and re-
tired in the evening in usual
health. He called his household
Saturday morning and after but 10
minutes illness expired. His
death is attributed to heart failure.
He was nearly y years old and
had been member of the Senate
four years, for many years Senator
Barbour was President of the Vir-
ginia Midland railroad, and only
relinquished that Office when he
took his seat in the Senate four
years ago. He was largely inter
ested in the Richmond and Dan
vile road, and was one of its di-
rectors. Senator Barbour was@at
one time Chairman Of the Demo-
cratic State Committee of Virginia,
rnd was known to be a man of
great political genius and an or
ganizor of rare ability. He has
been the recognized leader of the
Virginia Democracy for many
years, and to his efforts are ascribed
the political victories in the State.
During the campaigne Of 1884 and
1883 he rendered valuable service
to his party, and for many years
he has been member of the Ma
tional Democratic Committee.
Mr. Barbour was born in Cul-
pepper county, Va, December 30,
1920, and, after graduating at the
University Of Virginia, began the
practice oflaw in his native county.
He was elected to the State Legis-
lature repeatedly, and was mem
Der of the Forty-seventh, Forty
eighth andiForty-ninth Congresses,
and on March 4, 1889, succeeded
Senator Riddleberger in the United
States Senate.
The funeral services will be held
in the Senate chamber Monday
afternoon, after which the remains
will be removed to Poplar Hill, Va.
for interment. The Funeral Com
mittee on the part of the Senate
will not be announced before Mon,
day. To-day the chair occupied
by Senator Barbour in the Senate
was draped with the usual EN-
blems of mourning.

is contributing to the c"usc Of DEM
ocratic extravaganza, he advanced
proposition which ought not to
pass unnoticed. Unfortunately
said he, in that curious falsetto
drawl which pentrates to every
part of the chamber, "unfortunate-
ly, if there is anything that the
country does not care about, it is
the House of Representatives and
the Senate"
If the Hon. Thomas Bismarck
Reed meant to encourage the Dem
ocratic aspirants for Billion rec
ord by assuring them that the peo-
pie generally care nothing whether
they succeed or fail, he was put
ting forth II theory which is just
now very popular in Washington.
IT is the latest fashion in Congress
to regard the issue of honest and
economical government as an obso-
lescent thing in which the country
really takes very little interest.
The idea that the taxpayers, on the
whole, are not averse to II "large
and liberal policy in the matter of
appropriation is diligently incul-
Gated not only by avowed Billion
lists on the Republican side, but also
by Democrats who ought to be
ashamed of themselves. The be-
lief is too prevalent in the atmos-
phere of Washington that the coun-
try is Indifferent to performances
like the passage of the River and
Harbor bill of this session. 1t is a
belief highly satisfactory to the
Democratic mercenaries and fools
Of the present generation.
If any Democrat in Washington
is seriously inclined to accept the
Hon. Thomas Bismarck Reeds
opinion that the country cares lit
tie or nothing about what goes on
in the House Of Representatives,
we advise him to procure politi'
cal almanac and study the returns
of the Congress elections of 1890
That was the year of our Lord
which witnessed the overwhelming
of a certain Billion majority of
which the Hon. Thomas Bismarck
Reed is now the most conspicuous
survivor.

Young Men in Politics.

Cleveland Plain Dealer.l
"Why young men should belong
to the Republican party" is one of
the toasts to be responded to at the
Ann Arbor University Republican
league banquet this evening. If
ever man had a difficult task to
perform the Hon. Byron NJ. Cutch-
con, who was assigned this toast,
has. 1t will be difficult to convince
any well posted young man who
does his own thinking of their
being soundness or justice in the
Republican cause of today. The
Republican party accomplished
years ago the purpose for which it
was founded and after its accom-
plishment it degenerated into a
party of spoils and sectional hate.
1t is today the enemy of progress.
1t denies to the people their rights
guaranteed under the constitution.
1t has maintained itself in power
by the prostitution of the civil SER
vice Of the United States, by q
system of centralized government
which means special privileges to
the few and a ourtailment Of the
rights of the many. Its perpetual
tion of blighting and wi herring
system of war tariff taxation in
times Of peace is but one Of its
many crimes against the people.
Just how any young man can now
be Republican from principle is
past finding out. The true inter
est of the young men is in the
Democratic party.
The banquet at Ann Arbor will
be held under the management of
the national Republican committee
for the purpose of organizing the
young men of the college into the
Republican ranks. AS the Plain
Dealer before stated, the campaign
of education that is sweeping over
the country has alienated the col
lege brel man from the Republi-
gan party. 1t has opened his eyes
to the iniquitous and vicious policy
Of the Republican party on the
great economic questions, the re-
suit Of which can be seen in nun
dreds Of students leaving that par
ty. TO stay the desertions preju'

The Hon. Thomas Bismarck
Reed is the latest figure in the
House of Representatives at the
present time. He is q Bismarck
out of power, but not the less a
Bismarck. He sits among the
smaller and uneasier Republicans
of the minority like bull frog sur
rounded by scooters. Their diva
cations leave a ripple on the sur
face of legislation; but whenever
I ON Reed moves there is a COM
motion and a splash.
The leader of the opposition is
now engaged in promoting to the
best Of his uncommon ability the
endeavOr of certain Democrats to
heat the record Of Reeds own Bill
lion Congress in the matter of APP
preparations. AS the eX-Speaker
of the House has repeatedly declar-
ed that he is proud of that record,
you would naturally suppose him
reluctant to see it equalled or sur.
passed by his political enemies
Such is not the case. He is doing
everything in his power to helI
along the fool Democrats who are
bent on overlapping the Republi
can Billion with Democratic Bill
liOn-and a-Quarter. He is like
wise doing everything in his pow
er to make things uncomfortable
for any Democrat brave and hon
est enough to stand true to the
pledge with which the majority be
gan the session.
To this end the Hon. Thomas
Bismark Reed is devoting from
day to day his ready wit, his eXas
perating sarcasm, his imperturablc
self-possession, his parliamentary
skill, and his well-stocked memory
He is the ally and the guide of the

the tariff The first step in curren-
cy reform is reduction of the ta-
riff.
Tariff reform is first, last and all
the time the watchwOrd of the uni
ted Democracy. The people are
ready for it. The times are ripe
for it. Every emergency, political
and industrial calls for reduction
of the tariff. On this issue the
party may be united. Nothing
should be done to divert public at
tention fromit.
1t is unfortunate that the Democ-
racy, in its appropriations for the
River and Harbor bill, should give
new issue to the Republicans. 1t
is unfortunate that internal dissen-
sions should distract public atten-
ton from measures to men. 1t is
unfortunate that fanatics have
pushed to the front the currency
issue.
The Mckinley tariff blocks every
step forward. We cannot get
around it. We can not ignore it.
We can not endure 1t. The whole
force of the Democratic organiza-
tion must he thrown against it to
grind it to powder.

Anomalies In Democracy.
Courier Journal
The situation in which the Dem
ocratic party finds itself at this
moment has but one precedent be-
hind it, that of 1914. Then, as now,
a single leader--its beaten candid
a te for President in the preceding
election-was the choice of great
majority of Democratic voters. 1t
is not worth our while to enter now
upon an inquiry as to the causes of
Mr.. Van Buren's popularity with
the masses of his party; except to
remark in passing that the enthus-
idsm of the great campaign of 1910,
and the disappointment and
chagrin over its disastrous results,
were not yet allayed, and that they
were again centered in the per-
sonality of their defeated nominee
by his political associates.
The Democratic leaders Of the
period proved wiser than their fol-
lowers, for nothing is more certain
in the light of history than that, if
Mr. Van Buren had been named
for the third time, he would have
been second time defeated. After
adopting the two-thirds rule, the
Baltimore convention of 1914 began
to grope about through many be-
wildering ballots for Il candidate.
Mr.. Van Buren, had decisive ma
jority; but he could not reach the
necessary two-thirds, and the min
ority Of the convention, split up
among number of contestants
such as Marcy, Cass and Buchanan,
could not be united upon and one
of them. At last great discovery
was made in q most unexpected
quarter. Who could have foreseen,
who could have predicted that this
Democratic convention would go
to Whig State to find u nominee
who had not only not been thought
of as Il Presidential quantity, but
who had sustained two successive
defeats for Governor of his State,
the last one of these less than ten
months before? Yet this was pre-.
cisely what happened. James
Knox Polk was from Tennessee,
the home of Jackson. He was the
steady friend of Martin Van Buren.
He was a trained Democrat of good
abilities and decorouS life; and,
when the Van Buren men gave up
the fight for their favorite, they
were strong enough to shut out
their immediate adversaries and
successfully to bring Mr.. Polk ITO
the front and to nominate him.
1t was a stroke at once of genius
and good fortune. He was elected
and ever since the "dark horse"
has been a favorite with all partie
in quandary and in search of an
available candidate. In 1852
Franklin Pierce; in 1860, Abraham
Lincoln; in 1884, Grover Cleveland
and in 1888, Benjamin Harrison,
furnish us striking examples of an
experience which has almost estab-
lished as a party law the counsel
"When in doubt take to the woods
for there is never time when the
woods are not, as it were, full O.
Presidential possibilities.
The situation of 1914 is repeated
for the Democrats in 1892. Fol

Cleveland. Who is to stand fo

The Effects of the Mckinney Bill.

The Effects of the Mckinley Bill.
Courier Journal.l
Democratic agitation for reduc-
tion Of the tariff aroused both its
friends and opponents. BY the dis
astrous defeat of 1883, control of
legislation passed to the Republi-
can party. The greed of the man
ufacturers had been SO aroused,
and their campaign expenditures
had been so great that they deter
mined still further to enlarge their
eXactions, and were no longer con-
tent with the outrageous tariff of
1888.
The Mckinley tariff is without
question the most iniquitous eco
nomic measure that ever passed
the American Congress. The full
effects of that measure have not
yet been felt by the people. For
tunately for this country, and for
tunately for the authors of that
bill, large crops in America and
short crops in Europe, for twelve
months counteracted to large eX-
tent the pernicious influences OF
the Mckinley bill.
The present Congress is unable
to alter the Mckinley measure in
any part. Sustained by the Sen
ate and the President, the McKin'
ley law still stands. If there should
be in America only an average
crop this year, with average crops
in Europe, our people will get an
insight into the operations of this
law, and will have to pay penalties
on all sides for it's enactment.
Because judgment against al
evil work is not executed speedily
the hearts of men are hardened
because complete industrial col
lapse did not follow the passage o
the Mckinley law, men believe
: that it's opponents have raised ;
false alarm, but before the law il
repealed it's effects will be mani
fest to the entire country.
This situation imposes upon tn
Democratic party most serious re
sponsibilities. One effect of Dem
ocratic agitation against the tarif
: has been a radical advance in ia
- riff taxation.
More than ever the party need
to renew its pledges of tariff re

WHERE WILL THE CUT BEG1Na

The Democratic campaign orators, in the
fervid rhetoric of irresponsible platform
talk, promise that if they get into Office
they will cut down expenses. 1t would
be interesting to know where the cut will
begin.
Will Mr.. Ronald cut down the mayors
salary?
Will Mr.. Donworth cut down the salary
of the corporation counsel?
VIII the city council cut down the al
ready reduced salaries of a half dozen
clerks, the best paid of whom gets 500
month?
AT best this would afford little glory.
There are several departments whose an
pual total offers the Democrats tempta-
ton for sweeping reform.
The water department spent last year
out of bonds voted for the purpose-S7o,-
$50 for labor. This could be greatly re-
duced by stopping work and throwing
number of laborers out of work. Do the
Democrats propose to begin here2
Last year the city paid sS7. 1882 to Ia
borers for work on the street. vi course,
they could be thrown out of employment.
Do the Democrats propose to begin here?

men. Some of these could be discharged
and some of the engine stations closed.
1t would apparently matter little to the
Democrats how many men were thrown
out. or how much additional insurance
premiums storekeepers and householders
had to,pay. provided the Democratic office
seekers cot a little cheap glorification.

THE TWO CANDIDATES.


II the two candidates for mayor are to
be judged by their course during the pres
ent campaign, there can be little doubt in
the minds of intelligent men as to which
of them is the proper man to whom to en-
trust the conduct of the affairs of this city.
Mr.. Ronald's canvass has been from the
first canvass of brag and buster. He
has juggled with and misquoted figures.
He has misrepresented the condition of
the city. He has devoted great part of
the time to telling what he will do if he is
elected mayor, and he promises great
many wonderful things. He has beeh
throughout shifty, insincere, evasive and
uncertain.
Mr.. Leary, on the contrary, has adj
dressed his hearers in plain, stYnight-
forward business way. He tellj them
briefly the present condition of the city
and pledges his word that, if elected, he
will conduct its affairs in bhsiness-Iike
way as a,bus.ness. man should. There is
4nfsoth on his speeches. They contain
no loud assertions. They are calm, dis
passionate statements of facts which
carry conviction and command respect
Citizens who are anxious for the progress
and prosperity of the city will not find it
difficult to choose between two such can
didates.

VICTORY AHEAD.

The last three days have witnessed .
Republican awakening the like of which
Is seldom seen. The persistent and mali
cious misrepresentation of the Democrats
the groundless assaults upon every man
who is prominently identified with the
hepuniican party, have aroused the Re-
puDiicans and made them determined to
uphold the honor Of their party and of
their city.
On every side the Republican workers
are active, vigilant and confident. The
doubtful ones are swinging into line, and
,he feeling on every hand is one of earnest
aggressiyeness. The Republicans are fore
ing the fighting, and the Democrats are on
the run.
Unless all signs fail, next Tuesday will
witness sweeping Republican victory.
