Frank Lawler has nearly all of the male
democratic adults of Chicago on his petit
ton for appointment as postmaster of that
city. How many Washington signatures
could he obtain indorsing his application for
the purely local position of recorder of
deeds of this city? Has he come to the con-
clusion, after his failure to get place for
which he had an imposing local indorse-
ment, that he will be more successful If he
applies for position for which he has no
local Endorsement wha tsoever? AS a demo-
crat Mr.. Lawler ought to respect the home
rule declarations of the democratic plat
form, and as man he ought to respect the
American home-rule sentiment. If Wash
ingtonian had applied for appointment as
postmaster Of Chicago that city and Mr..
Frank LAWYER would doubtless have con-
sidered the application as an impertinence
and an absurdity. 1t is even more imper-
tinent and ridiculous for Chicagoan to ap-
ply for the position Of recorder of deeds at
Washington than it would be for a Wash
ingtonian to apply for the position of post
master at Chicago. The latter is dis
tinctively a federal Office and its salary is
paid by the nation out of national taxes
Westinghouse as well as Chicagoans con-
tribute TO the payment of this official. The
recordership of deeds of this city is on the
contrary, purely local office. performing
local functions and supported exclusively by
fees paid by District property owners The
nation has nothing to do with the office ex-
cept to appoint the man to draw a salary
toward which it does not contribute a cent
Neither Mr.. Lawler nor any other self-re-
specting democrat hailing from any other
place than the District OF Columbia ought
to be willing to accept this Office If 1t were
rendered to him

and prudent foreign policy, preserving peace
with all nations, while scrupulously main
tanning all the rights of our own govern
ment and people at home and abroad"
Four years later democratic announcement
was made at the Chicago convention that
the democratic party is the only party
that has ever given the country a foreign
policy consistent and vigorous, compelling
respect abroad and inspiring confidence at
home. While avoiding entangling alliances,
it has aimed to cultivate friendly relations
with other nations. and especially with our
neighoors on the American continent whose
destiny Is closely linked with our own. and
We view with alarm the tendency to a pol
Icy Of irritation and buster, which Is liable
g. any time to confront us with the alterna-
tive of humiliation or war"
How do these utterances agree with re-
cent administrative action?
or course the project OF restoring the
queen is not in line with any American
policy, declared by any representative of
any political party: but It is interesting to
note that even in his general policy of op-
position to Hawaiian annexation Presid ent
Cleveland is not in accord with the ira
ditional policy of his party. When the
louisiana purchase was being discussed
Jefferson said: There il no constitutional
diiiiculty as to the acquisition of territory,
and whether. when acquired, it may be
taken into the Union by the Constitution

that the democrats. led by Polk. defeated
