Eeminine Public lines

One Of the best arguments in favor Of
woman suffrage ever published appears in
the editorial columns of an eastern news
paper which In terms Is violently opposed
to the reform. The argument is contained
in an article reviewing the work of women
as local school inspectors. There are pc
culiar reasons. says the article, why wo-
men do some of this work better than men,
among them being what may be called the
housekeeping of the schools-the super
vision of their comfort, cleanliness and
decency;" and then it goes on to wish that
THE inspectriX might invade" every public
building in the city and reform the shock
ing condition of our municipal housekeep-
ing" The newspaper in question here
lights inadvertently upon the vital point
concerning suffrage. From top to bottom
in government there is housekeeping to be
lonesome of 1t materially referring to
physical neatness. and some moral. refer
ring to the finer points of right and wrong
aud il is a natural duty of women to man
age this housekeeping. Woman suffrage
does not mean that women should assume
the masculine public duties which men are
performing; It means that they should as
sumo the feminine public duties which
men are vainly struggling with.-Cleveland

The tariff issue will need no forcing on
the Democratic side. Differ as Demo-
Gratis may regarding other matters they
are substantially united on the propo-
sition that protection is fraud, un-
Democratic in principle, unconstitu-
tional in spirit. The Democratic party
has grown in radicalism on the subject
of taxation in the last decade in the
way that is both surprising and crafty
ing, and the theory that people can
tax themselves rich, that trade thrives
best when most interdicted, and that
it is the right and duty Of govern
ment to direct the buying and selling of
it's citizens through the agency of tariff
bills will be swept aside with the invinc-
ible logic of common sense and the
unanswerable argument of common

antly able and bravely willing to assail
the delusions and iniquities of protec-
tionism with the weapons that hurt.

Mr.. Perry S. Heath, introduced to the

editor of the Cincinnati Commercial
Gazette and the mouthpiece pro tenn at
St. Louis of Mckinley, has arrived at
the convention place and unbosomed
himself of what purports to be the Can

Sill YER LU.NACY AND
DEMOCRATIC UNITY

Devotion to principle is a fine thing,
but bigoted adherence to prejudice is
not, yet both produce phenomena in
politics that are hardly to be distin-
guished from each other. If the dis
patches may be believed, the Denrocra,-
tic party is on the eve of a grand split
on the money question, the like of NsAiyEl
has not been seen since the ruinouS
break up of 1860. We read that the gold
men, if they get control of the national
convention by ever SO narrow a margin,
Will enforce the two thirds rule as to all
the proceedings and that the silver men
Will, thereupon, bolt We read that, if
the silver men predominant, they will
have none of the two-thrdS rule, but
adopt 16 to l platform by majority
vote, and that the gold men will bolt.
We read also that the national commit
tee is controlled by the gold men, and
that it will prevent the seating of sill
yer delegations appointed by state con-
VentionS which have instructed them
to leave the national convention should
a gold platform be adopted and a gold
candidate nominated. In short, the sit
uatiOn, as pictured by the newspapers,
presents two fierce factions, each of
which is determined to have every
thing 1t wishes or else abandon the party.
We shall believe this when we have
to and not before. Il will take more
than the testimony of a rowloving
daily press to convince us that the Dem
ocrats of the United States havd lost
their political senses. Among the lead
ers thre is, unquestionably, wide di-
vergence OF opinion on the monetary
issue, but it is to be presumed that these
leaders, for the most part, have convic-
tionS and not sediments" merely. If
that be so. they will not be impervious
to reason, and out of mere chaSrin at
being overbOrne in a convention Hing

racy and the country may go to the
deuce. The financiers who are minded
that way are of the variety who know
nothing about finance except what has
come to them in newspaper scraps, ana
who think with their tempers instead of
their heads.
The business of the national conven-
tion of the great party is not TO hght
battles and win crushing victories with

mind of the party as a whole on current
questions, and then frame platform ac-

On Monday morning last the Security

For the past seven years and since its
organization the bank has occupied

and grown to its present proportions.
The new banking-room is built and
furnished in modern style, having in ad-

in large numbers are inspecting the
premises daily and are well pleased with
the new room and pronounce it the neat

Florida oranges, partly because 40

TO such an extent that most people now

there is but little doubt that before many

Aad the lesson Of history Is that sane.
fk0Atful policies consist Of compromise.
Thuugh the Democratic party Is at outs
with itself on the subject OF gold and
silver, there are plenty OF important
matters on which 1t is at one. These
points of agreement should be set forth
with the boldness that unity warrants.
and then on points of disagreement
there should be give and take. The des-
is justified by experience 1t Is, In ef
feet, a truce of God. during which each
side Is free to exercise its American
privilege Of trying to bring over its op-
ponents to its way of thinking. Parties
that fly to pieces when variety Of opin-
ion arises are the ephemera Of politics.
and the Democratic party has lasted a
long while. 1t is better that the financial
question should wait rather than that
the Democratic party should be dis
rupted. There is no Sacrifice of princi-
pie involved in this view. When one has
real devotion to principle he. for the
sake of triumph Of that principle, Is will
ling to wait as well as to fight.

FOLLOW THE FLAG

The Democratic party has stood, from
the foundation of the republic, as the
prime minister of an idea. the servant
of a set Of principles. the exponent OF a
theory of government.
The idea Of which it is the prime min
lister is the preservation of the individ-
ual and insistence upon his sovereign
ty; the principles Of which 1t Is the
servant form a body of doctrine which
may be summarized thus: Hostility
to sumptuary laws, jealousy of the ex-
ercise of arbitrary power by govern
ment, opposition to the aggressions and
usurpations Of corporations. devotion
to home rule, personal liberty and free
dom Of trade. The theory Of govern
ment Of which 1t is the exponent is well
stated by Walker in his text book. Amer
lean Law: THE true light In which to
regard government is that of neces-
sary evil. Some degree of government
we must have to preserve social order;
but the less we have of it the better,
provided individuals will keep them
selves in order. That is the best society
in which the operations of government
are least felt In private affairs. Like the
at mosphere, which supports us, we are
the best off with respect to it when we
have least reason to be conscious Of Its
existence"
The Herald will not, and no Democrat
should, cease to follow the flag of the
party which has made this body of doc
trine its platform for hundred years,
even though a majority of that party
be in error and insist on the making of
a declaration not only unwise but in Its
true analysis undemocratic.
Appearances indicate. The Herald re-
grets to observe, that the believers in
the free coinage of silver at the ratio of
sixteen ounces of that metal to one of
gold will be in control of the national
Democratic convention to assemble
next month in Chicago. IT, as seems
probable, such control obtains, the con-
vention will undoubtedly adopt plat
form and nominate candidate in har-
mony with the majority's views. The
Herald Is constrained to believe such a
course to be q mistaken one and in vio-
lation Of cardinal Democratic doctrine,
but IL 1t be the will of the party to take
that course 1t is the bounden duty Of
every individual member to acquiesce.
The preservation Of the gold standard
in the United States under existing con-
ditions is important, highly so. but it
is not as essential as the preservation
of the Democratic party. which stands
today as the only effective barrier
against the rising tide of Republican
GENERALIZATION. special privilege and
monopoly.
Silverlsm is sentimentalism. 1t rests
on an erroneous conception of facts and
has subsisted on the inability of people
to discern the real causes for certain
unfortunate and distressful effects. 1t
will pass away like all theories without
a basis in sound principle and with the
discovery of its impotency as panacea.
1t is an error of the heart more than of
the head, there is in fact no head" in
in it, and such an error should afford
no reason for the disruption of a great
party that is so grandly right in all
else.
