Young Seligman because he is an
Israelite. Another disturbance was
over resolution making the ability
to read the English language neces-
sary for all immigrants. This caused
an Irishman to shout that the great
est anarchist and conspirator who
ever lived was an American, Parsons,
who was hanged at Chicago. At this
point the speaker was greeted with
Kisses and compelled to sit down.
Though the convention was far
from HARMONIOUS there was some
good work done and we are glad to
know that the progressive element
beat the mosslacks. 1t is difficult
to see, however, that the Republican
party will be made stronger by the
Louisville meeting. Indeed, we are
inelinded to think that the old-style
Republicans will feel as if they had
been read out of the party when a
Republican convention fails to harp
on Protection and negro suffrage
mainly.

NEW REPUBLICANIsM.

Progressive Republleanism, so
called, was outlined and adopted by
the National League of Republican
Clubs at the recent session in Louis
vile. The telegraph advises US that
the session was marked by squabbler
and the older delegates are much
offended by the action ofthe younges
ones. To the delegates who are
opposed to any tinkering with the
platform as adopted at Minneapolis
as the gospel of the party the utter
ances of the leader of the young Re-
publieaps were anything but palata
BILE. No more radical declaration of
principles, they contended, could
have gone out from an out and-out
alliance convention. 1t wesa bodily
adoption of third party issues and
timber, and at least premature and
ill advised.
Emphasis was laid by the progress
sive young Republicans on the fol-
lowing points: Arbitration for the
adjustment of the differences arising
between labor and capitol: the aboli-
tion of private armed forces repre-
scented by the Pinkerton and like
agencies; thesuppression of allpnblic
gambling, whether in food products
or by means of lottery tickets; a
single term for the President. They
also recommended to the favorable
consideration ofthe Republican clubs
of the United States, as matter of
education, the question of granting
to the women oithe State and nation
the right to vote at all elections on
the same terms and conditions as
male citizens.
One negro delegate was indignant
because no mention had been made
of negro lynchingin the South and
he said that if the Republican party
wanted to keep the black mans vote
it must look out for the black mans
interest. He was squelched, howev-
er, in short order The next piece of
turbulence was the proposed denun-

This amount is SO stupendous that
clear conception of it cannot readi-
ly be had; the mind does not grasp
it unless in connection with some
thing which We may know already
aud can realize by comparison. The
writer therefore says:
''To raise money enough to pay
the bill in one lump sum, every voter
in the United States would have to
contribute more than $500. If the
burden were distributed among the
whole earth's population, every
human being, man, woman or child,
civilized or savage, living anywhere
today on the face of the globe, would
be taxed about six dollars. If every
gold or silver coin or piece OF paper

county and of England, France,
Germany, Austria, Holland, Italy,

THE COST OF WAR.

AS the human race becomes more
enlightened and imbued with the real
spirit of Christianity, the less likeli-
hood will there be of those huge
slaughtering contests that are called
wars. Aside from the inhumanity of
killing and naming them, we may
consider for moment the cost of
war in a merely financial sense.
"What did the Civil war cost in
money!" is the title of a leading
editorial in last Sundays issue of the
New York Sun.
The estimate made by the Sun ex-
cludes such damages as arose from
the paralysis of business, the sus-
pension of trade with the Southern
States, the extinction of large part
of the maritime commerce Of the
nation, as well as the loss resulting
from the arrest of the normal in
crease of population and the peace
full development of the nations re-
sources, for these are incapable of
determination and even vague con-
lecture could lead to no adequate
representation of the enormous
amount of loss through the sources
just above mentioned.
The Suns editorial writer consid-
ers the several classes of expenditure
or direct loss that need to be most
considered to be the following:
l. "The current war expenses paid
during the four years by the United
States Government with money
raised by taxation or borrowed upon
the nations credit.
2. 1.-The bounties paid to the vol
unteers during the war by the States,
or from other sources than the
Federal Government.
"The mOnev raised and expend-
ed by organizations of citizens for
the alienation of the soldiers condi-
ton.
f. "The direct loss to the nations
wealth, resulting from the employ
ment in military service of citizens
who otherwise would have been pro-
ducers.
5. "The war claims paid by act of
Congress since the war, for the de-
struction of property, or for other
reasons.
6. 1.-The interest on the war debt
since 1865 up to the present time.
Z. "The expenditure for pensions
to date
The article deals with some details
in reference to each of these classes
of expenditure and recapitulates
with these startling figures as a
minimum estimate of what it cost
the North to preserve the Union:
