His Followers.

The Apostle of Protection Deserted by
His Followers.
Where is Mckinley? He has not been
much in evidence recently, and other
booms have been booming while his
has been dropping and apparently dy-
ing out.
But the people want Mckinley now.
They want him for a terrible example.
They are anxious to hear from him.
They desire to know what he has to
say about the Illinois Steel company,
the second in extent of business in the
United States, which is running day
and night to meet demands and posts
at all its works the gratifying notice
that the wages of its seven
thousand workmen are voluntarily
raised ten per cent. from date.
Will Mckinley give the world his
explanation of this good news? Will
other calamity howlers let the people
know just what they think about this
action of the Illinois Steel company?
Doubtless some of them will attrib-
ute the raising OF the wages to a dem
ocratic trick to hoodwink the country
with the belief that our troubles are
over and prosperity is returning.
Probably some will charge it to the
dark and desperate intrigues of the
Cleveland administration. Maybe it is
due to English gold. Unfortunately,
however, the company is under control
of stalwart republicans who have here
tofore been fre-eaters of the iercest
kind on the subject of high tariff, and
to whom Mckinley was little god
Now he is broken idol in their eyes

COWARDLY DODGERS.

The Republican Calamity HOwlers Sulk-
ing In Their Tents.
The republican league convention at
Cleveland lodges the two important
issues of the day-tarif and silver.
The report of the platform committee
leaves everything to the national con-
vention of next year. This is lodging
extraordinary. The reasons are not
far to seek.
On the tariff question the republican
party is an attorney without case. 1t
can do only as the old lawyer advised
his son: when you have absolutely
no defense roar and paw dirt and dis
tract attention" But the reverber-
ating echoes of the blast furnace and
the din of reawakening industry and
reestablished prosperity under a demo-
cratic tariff make republican roaring
and calamity-shrieks sing mighty
small.
On the silver question the repu blican
party is a house divided against itself.
Here is a great question, to which a
great party would address itself. The
voters of the country expect political
parties to have the courage of their
convictions, if they have any. This is
q case where the sole conviction is a
mistaken conviction that spoils may
be had by straddling and the fight won
by running away from the issues.
The people have no use for fawners
and towards. men who have no opinion
or dare not express one.
On the two great issues of the day
the republican league has lost its
tongue. It stands mute. It is the 81
lence Of hopelessness, of low political
cunning and disqualification Albany

INCAPABLE OF THINKING.

Republicans Remain Inert In tho Hands
of Their Bosses.
Having decided that Il is debarred
from telling what it thinks about any
living issue, the republican league
stands as an organization whose only
occupation is to elect its own officers
At Cleveland the league discovered
that by the terms of its constitution it
has no right to think. The members
seemed pleased with the discovery Of
their situation as political infants,
without the privileges and responsible
tiles of freemen.
The republican party can always be
reckoned upon to show the legitimacy
of its descent from the federalist body
which distrusted the American people
and wanted to secede that it might re-
new allegiance to the British monarchy
aud aristocracy.
The federalist of 1900 was either q
boss or a slave. The born federalist is
always willing to surrender his own
independence Of opinion and defer to
the mogul he acknowledges as his mas
ter. Admission that he is unfit 60 think
or act except under orders comes TO
him easily. It would not strain his
Americanism much to give up the bal
lot altogether and let privileged few
do the voting and governing unchecked
and hereditarily.
We democrats are prone to wrath
and strife in the great political
struggles which affect the welfare of
the people, but it is the strife out of
which flow accessions to the happiness
of the masses. The docility of the re-
their bosses is symbolical of the order
of things under which all accessions
accrue to the powerful few and all the
losses fall to the share of the toiling
many.
Democrats fall from power or miss
getting it through their honest di-
visions over what is right. Federalists
fall or fail through their inevitable
abuses when in power or the certainty
with which they assume the wrong
side of any question which concerns
the free and equal participation of all
citizens in the benefits of government.
Democrats are having some trouble
among themselves this year, and may
have more before they have less But
they are engaged in hunting for the
truth, and when they unite upon it, as
they will, the repu blican Shermanism
will be swept out into the garbage
heap as the federalist alien and sedi-
ton laws were in the Jeffersonian out
burst at the opening of the century,

STUDIED MODESTY.
He Played . Shrewd Part ON His Retu1
From Italy.

He Played . Shrewd Part on His Return
From Italy.
On Bonaparte's passage through
Chambery, he had been visib1y affected
by a shout from the multitude hailing
him as the father Of his soldiers.
There were countless homes in France
into which the letters Of absent sons
had sent the same epithet, and the ma
ton at large thought of him in that
part as simple, benevolent man, de-
voted to bis country and to her liber-
ties. His histrionic talents, like his
other gifts, were of the highest order,
and for the moment this ideal must
not be shattered. He therefore az
peared to the French public as de-
voice to the principle of equality,
which the revolution considered the
cornerstone of free institutions. In
the Moniteur, the official journal of
the time, may be read every detail of
his conduct. Instead of waiting for
visits from those in place, he made the
advances. His clothes were plain, his
manners were simple. his dignity was
moderated to a proper respect for him
self and others. The carriage in which
he drove had but two horses. and there
was no suite in attendance, either
abroad or at home. Often the passers-
by saw him walking alone in the
small garde n of his transformations
dwelling, apparently resting from the
fatigues of his campaigns. In short,
there was nothing recognizable of the
conquering potentate~ who had kept
such state at Milan, except the affect
ed simplicity of his personal life and
conduct.
''At first sight," wrote Talleyrand.
whose acquaintance Bonaparte sought
Immediately on reaching Paris. ''he
struck me as a charming figure: the
laurels of twenty victories are so be-
coming to youth, a handsome eye, .
pale complexion and certain tired
look" There were a few proper as.
sumptions of great dignity, as for in
stance when, on December 10, 1877,
great festival was organized in the
classic style for the formal recep-
ton by the directory of the
treaty of Campo Formio from
the hands of its maker. Talley-
rand pronounced glowing euiogium.
Bonaparte, with impressive mien, re-
piled in a few short, terse sentences,
WHICH ClOStu Will tAC oik AAAASeshS ~
terance: when the happiness OF the
French people shall rest upon the best
organic laws, all Europe will become
free" Barras closed with long,
dreary tribute to the directory. and
at the end imprinted the kiss of fra
ternity on the young generals brow.
The other members of the executive
hurried to display feigned cordiality
in following his example.
The two councils united in a great
dinner to the hero of the hour. The
public was overpowered by the har-
mony among their rulers. Bonaparte's
studied modesty might have shown
the directors how false was their posi-
ton with reference to him. As had
been said long before to Pepin, the
title of king belongs to him who has
the power. In private the skilful
minister of foreign affairs was no less
adroit than the young conqueror. and
lavished his courtier arts in the preser.

"A republican newspaper says that
it is one of the strongest testimonials
to the character OF the late Judge
Gresham and an evidence of uncommon
honesty that he left an estate amount
ing to only about forty thousand dol
lars. This is true and just 1t should
be remembered also that this modest
amount of wealth was accumulated by
great industry and economy during
profligate republican Doodle period in
which fortunes of millions were made
by men who never had hundredth
part of the opportunities that fell in
the way of Judge Gresham, if he had
possessed the corrupt vision to see and
the corrupt purpose to improve them,

The New Chief of the Weather Bureau, .
Master of His Art.
WASHINGTON, July 4.-Willis l.
Moore, the new chief of the weather
bureau, is regarded as one of the best
forecasters in the service, and has
reputation for accuracy second to none
in the department
After writing one of the best essays
on practical forecasting year ago. he
was ordered to Washington to make
reports for a month, and received the
highest percentage among ten who
were selected.
He was at once given the position
of professor Of neteorology. ut a salary
of 81. 500. He was, prior to this. local
forecaster at Milwaukee, but after his
promotion was transferred to Chica-
go. During last winter he made g
wonderful record, considering the
character of the weather.
In politics Mr.. Moore is said to be .
republican. He is about 40 years Of
age. and has grown up in the service.
So far as Prot Harrington is con-
cerned. Secretary Morton did not care
to either affirm or deny any of tho
statements he had made. Their was
nothing personal behind the change
in the weather bureau.

WASHINGTON. July 5.-Carl Browne,
the lieutenant of Coxey in his march
to Washington at the head of the army
of the Commonweal, reached the city
yesterday morning, but did not carry
out his alleged programme of being re-
married on the capitol steps to Coxey's
daughter.
Mrs. Browne went from the train to
a hotel. Browne rode through the
grounds three times on a herdic and
that concluded his programme. He
wore the same old leather coat, cordu-

his march to Washington. He made
no attempt to violate the laws and he
was unmolested. A crowd of about
$50 people assembled to see the show,
but after waiting q time dispersed.

The crowds of visitors at the carnival OF
the Columbia Athleucf Club are increasing
at great rate, and last evening the beau
tifully decorat ted apartments of the commo-
dious structure were thronged until late
hour. The paddle stands did thriving
business, and the many valuable articles
on their shelves were carried OF In trl-
umph by the fortunate visitors. Every
male caller naturally fell victim to the
bright ladies who presided over the flower
room and rendered dainty boutonnieres for
coat !apels, and the cafe was crowded by
supper takers, who enjoyed the feasts set
