Victory Worse Than Defeat.

owe see," says a prominent
Democratic organ, referring to the
disorganized and impotent condi-
ton of its party, chow one victory
has wrought more damage than
thirty years of defeat" This
states an obvious truth in plain
terms, and at the same time
emphasizes an important political
lesson. The Democratic party is
now in complete control of the
Government for the first time since
the Administration Of Buchanan.
It has the power and the opportun-
ity to do what it pleases, andyet it is
not able to do anything, COMPARE
lively speaking. During all these
years it has been antagonizing
everything that the Republicans
have advocated and accomplished;
and now when its chance has come
to enforce its own doctrines and
purposes, it is distracted, irresolute,
and incapable of reaching definite
result. The man whom it elected
President openly rebukes it for its
ignoblejealousies and chickering's,
and points out the necessity Of
more intelligent and effective action
if it expects to save itself from "the
degradation and disgrace of a
failure to redeem its pledges.
Never before has a party in power
made such poor use of its
advantages, or failed in so many
ways to justify the confidence
reposed in it when it was intrusted
with the management of public
affairs.

We are sorry to see our repub-
lican contemporaries booming w
H. Mylrea, of Wausau, as the
republican nominee for attorney
general on the state ticket. Not
because we have anything against
Mr.. Mylrea, for he is one of the
finest men on the face of the earth,
if he is republican; but because
he is too good man to see
beaten-and further and mainly
because he would give the republi-
can ticket a big lift by being put
on it.-Jer7zU Meas.
The above is a fair sample OF
democratic principles. "Mylrea is
too good a man to be nominated
for attorney general on the Repub-
lican ticket" We presume that
Mylrea will appreciate ~ the
friendship marked in the above
paragraph. We are willing to run
the chances of his defeat if the
Republicans will nominate him.

Tom Reid, of Appleton, is out
after the republican nomination for
congress in this district, and
apparently wants it real hard. He
is the only one, however, who has
the nerve to go against the 3ooc

Tom Reid is not the only
aspirant on the Republican side
for congressional honors. E. S.
Minor, of Door County, is also a
candidate. Yes, Tom Reid has
nerve enough to meet the 5000
democratic majority in this district
and he will prove to be just the
man to overcome it this fall. Just
note it down for future reference.
It may come handy.

1t is evident that the statesmen
at Washington, particularly those
who occupy seats in the Senate,
are disposed to take the Coxey
movement too seriously. There is
nothing to justify the belief that
there is anything dangerous in the
army that Mr.. CoXey commands.
According to all accounts, it is
composed mainly of a class Of
persons who have no cause of COM
plant but their own laziness and
improvidence, and whose designs
are not such as threaten any start

harm to let them march into Wash

Let us Keep Good Natured, Bretheren.

The State Journal is in receipt
of several communications in
regard to the next Republican
state ticket, referring in the main
to the nomination for governor.
While a full expression Of senti-
ments is desirable, and it is the
policy Of this paper to give space
to communications and to copy
from the state press such COM
ments as may be made in regard
to proposed candidates, treating
all precisely alike, yet we are not
willing to print matter that is i'll
tempered and bitter, even though
it may contain much of truth. 1t
is no time now, when a great
victory awaits right action and
reasonable effort upon the part of
Republicans, to stir up strife by
attacking persons, locations or
nationalities. Now is the time for
forbearance and harmony. Fair
and temperate discussion of candi-
dates is always in order, but

violent language invariably creates
dlscord and invites defeat. Two
articles, both from leading Repub-
leans, living in different sections
OF the state, have been received
crltlcising the candidacy of Mayor
Koch, Of Milwaukee, for Governor
While some of the reasons given
for opposition to him may have
force, yet The State Journal can
not devote its columns TO the
publication Of articles that if
believes are ilI-advised and intern
perate, and the sure tendency oil
which would be, not to convince,
but to excite prejudice and create
dlssension. Differ as we may as
to the most desirable candidates,
let our differences be reasonable
and good natured. After the
convention comes the election, and
nothing should be said or done by
any Republican before the candi-
dates are nominated that will make
it impossible or embarrassing for
him to give them earnest and
effective support.
These remarks lead to the
suggestion that there is great
danger to parties in overwhelming
majoritles. Out of them grow
recklessness, dissension and defeat.
When nomination is regarded
as almost equivalent to an election
candidates multiply, and the
contests for place become exciting
and demoralizing. A party is
always in best fighting trim when
its majority is small and uncertain.
A strong minority is better than
any discipline to put majority on
its good behavior. We hope,
therefore, that the Democrats
won't come over too fast until after
the state convention. Even then
we do not want them all. We
need two parties, the right and
the wrong, ours and the other.
We only want to recruit from
those who have been deceived, the
honest men who see their mistakes
and are anxious to correct them,
the intelligent who are able to
appreciate the logic of events.
Let the old hunkers, the bigoted
bourbons, the ignoramuses, who
are too stubborn to own or too
blind to See their plumbers, stay
where they are as horrid examples
of the sins and follies of modern
Democracy. We don't want the
Republican party to get too large,
or incur too great risk Of contami-
nation from bad associates. State

ington, and stay there as long as
they do nothing worse than hold
meetings and pass resolutions.
Their Importance is being magni-
he'd at the expense of the truth and
OF common sense. They are seek
ing notoriety far more than they
are endeavoring to solve political
problems Or to promote the inter
ests of the laboring population. At
most, they do not constitute very
formidable force, or one that is
likely to prove to strong for the
local police, even if they should
undertake acts of violence, which
does not seem to be a part of their
policy. The only peril in the case
is that of giving them unnecessary
prominence, and thereby encour-
aging them to assume a disorderly
and mischievous attitude.
To hear the Republicans talk
one would imagine they actually
believed what they say when they
charge the hard times to the dem
ocrats. They don't believe it,
however, and know better. In
Canada there have been just
as hard times as here in the United
States, and the same is true in
England, France, Australia and the
South American countries. How
do they account for this? They
don't account for it and don't care
to talk about facts.-MarsAfeld
NezUS.
The facts are that Canada and
the above countries never have the
good times the people Of the
United States enjoy. 1t is not
necessary that we look after the
welfare of other countries, we have
all we can do to look after the in
terests of Americans, and their
interests have boen greatly abused
since the Democratic party went
into power. No other party or
element is responsible for the pres
ent times and lack of confidence
except the Democratic party.
Such trash as is contained in the
above paragraph is the only excuse
or argument the Democrats have
of diverting the people from the
true facts in the case. The Demo-
cratic party is wholly to blame for
the present times and unsettled
condition of the business interests
Of this country.

The Teaching of Experient e.

Harrison at Indianapolis on Weu-
nesday emphasizes the sig nitlcant
-act that the time-Worn tariff issue
has lately been invested with a
degree of interest that makes it
seem like a new question. 1t has
been before the country IN some
shape ever since the Government
was established, and there has
been more talking and writing
about it than about any other one
thing in our politics. The debate
upon it has been continuous, as
Mr.. Harrison says: it has been
in every aspect with
thoroughness. But
the present generation has known
nothing Of it by practical expert
ence under any other than the
protective policy. That policy
made the country the most
prosperous one in the world.
Business of every kind was profit
able, there was an abundance of
employment at the highest wages
ever paid, and the aggregate of
wealth increased until it exceeded
that of any other nation. Under
such conditions the people gradu-
ally ceased to appreciate the
danger of a contrary policy and
finally voted for change of that
sort, feeling confident that no
harm could come to them, and
that prosperity would continue, no
matter what changes might be
made in the Federal revenue
system. The tariff did not impress
them as being the controlling
factor in the philosophy of their
success. They regarded it as a
theory rather than a condition,
and thus disparaged its peculiar
This view of the subject is no
longer entertained. The result of
a verdict in favor of a revision of
the tariff on anti-protection lines
has turned out to be a much more
serious thing than was anticipated.
There is now no lack of interest
in the tariff issue; on the contrary,
it has suddenly become the ques-
ton of chief concern throughout
the whole country. The logic Of
actual events has brought it
directly to the attention of all
classes of citizens. "What the
orator and the pamphleteer could
not do" as Mr.. Harrison says, "a
bitter experience that has intruded
itself into every home, and into
many brought starvation, has done
and is doing to-day" The average
voter has learned by the evidence
of his own eyes that the tariff is
something more than a mere
theory for technical disputants to
wrangle over. He has had
positive demonstration Of the fact
that it is closely and forcibly
related to his personal welfare and
happiness. His intelligence tells
him that the protective policy is
the true source of the advantages
that he has been enjoying, and
that such advantages are not to be
expected under a revenue tariff
policy. The history of former
experiments of the same kind
teaches the same lesson, but he
would not be guided by historical
instruction, and now he is getting
his education in the school of
individual experience. 1t is true
that the tariff has not yet been
changed, but the party in power
has given notice what the change
will be, and this has suficed to
create general confusion and dis
tress, and to satisfy the people
that a monstrous mistake was
made when the opportunity was
provided for such legislation.
