AN EXPENSIVE LUXURY
Appropriations for Congress This

Otherwise the adjournment was marked
by no special features.

session in the statements of appropria
tons. and Is on account of an increas'
of $l62, 3lj 400 in the bonded indebted
ness of the present administration up
to February, 1895, the int rest and sink
ing fund charge on account of the later
bond issue of 500, 900, 600 in February
1896, amounting TO 81 100000, not be-

deficiency in the treasury of S2G, POL

sentative of the minority on the appro-
priations committee, also presented a
statement, in which he says. If the
present congress had rigidly refused
authority for additional contracts and
had appropriated only to meet the inn
mediate fiscal years requirements, the
next congress and administration would
have been in "A position to largely re-
duce appropriations and expenditures
and the administration of the govern
ment could easily haye turned to al
economical method of governmental
expenditure. This, however, has not
been done and the majority in congress
must be held responsible for this grave
dereliction in public duty.

result, the people would only be
plunged the deeper into trouble.
The result would be that there
would be enormous and genral disap-
pointment, and then would come re-
action. The people who should be
still determined to accomplish their
own deliverance from poverty and
hard work would naturally push on to
still more radical measures. and these
would make up the Socialist party
The privileged classes would necessar-
lily see that, in order TO secure protec-
tion from the proposed raids Of the
radicals, they must have a strong gov
ernment, with abundant military pow
er, and they would make up the ex-
treme centralizing party.
But the great body OF the American
people, who would in such case, have
realized that prosperity and happiness
for the people are not to be secured by
either mob violence or governmental
power, but must be gained and earned
by the Industrious and virtuOus lives
OF citizens living and working under
wise constitutional institutions, would
get together, and, without regard to
former party affiliations, make up the
great conservative political element Of
the population.
Should Major Mckinley be elected
President, this readjustment of parties
will be postponed for another four
years; but, under the existing political
conditions there is good reason to be-
lieve that it will come soner or later
The people may be swept by some
great political excitement from the
moorings of prudence and sound sense;
but, sooner or later, they will come
back to them, and it is in this fact
that the final salvation of American
liberty and free institu-
tions is assured.-New Orleans Plea

REIMBURSEMENT OF POLITICAL
PARTIES.

It makes little real difference. so

result will be that there will be a radi-

IL will make just as little difference

will be a general shifting Of ground

Outside of these and between the
two extremes will be a great conser-

Democratic doctrines, and as much op-

rule and Socialism on the other. This
party will represent true American

THE RIGHT OF FREE SPEECH.
OF Wilmington Hundred.


All Americans claim the right of
free speech and some cranks imagine
that they possess that right to the
discontinue OF others, and carry II to
such an extent that they become nui-
sances to entire communities. Prop
erly understood, all men and women
too, for that matter. have a right to
freely express their opinions in regard
TO matters Of a general interest. It
would be carrying this, though, too
far to say that any of us has a right
TO talk others to death; and yet there
are some impractical beings who APP
pear to think they should be accorded
that privilege at all times and in all
places.
II is not surprising that these peo-
pie are making themselves obnoxious,
in many portions of the country, at
the present time, and we learn that
the police of indianapolis have been
Obliged to make arrests on the ground
that they We're disturbing the peace.
As a consequence, Judge Cox, or that
to his own popularity with the class OF
people who insist on free speech upon
all times and occasions, gave the fol-
lowing opinion:
Il want to say here and now that
there is not a decision of any court,
high or low, where It is held that a
man violates the law by talking over
political questions in the street. On
the contrary, all of the decisions are
the other way. The right OF free
speech Is fundamental in our Constitu-
tion and must not be denied. No po-
lice force can stop it. It is the right of
American citizens. This is a time
when perplexing questions are puz-
cling the people They are questions
of vital Importance to the common
people. It is only by ample discus
sion Of the questions that confront
them that they can learn properly to
exercise their rights Of franchise. They
have a right under the law and the
Constitution to discuss these Ques-
tions, and this court is going to pro-
tect them In that right"
This is undoubtedly a popular opin-
ion, but we should think it doubtful II
it were either good logic or correct
law. The judge is partly right and
partly wrong. II the disputants were
blocking the streets so as to impede
their use by the public, and especially
If there were a city ordinance against
such gatherings, the judge was wrong.
for no one will claim that any Ameri-
can citizen has a right to occupy any
public or private place at will. If he
could, no church, or school, or even
private parlor would be safe from his
encroachments Right is right and
buncombe is buncombe. It strikes us
that this judges words SAVIOR little
too much of the latter
Still it is not always well to resort
to drastic measures to stamp out a
political fallacy. Ordinarily a foolish
political cause will be talked to death
by its own orators if they are afford
ed every advantage consistent with
public comfort and safety.
