Tg4URsTON'S CONDUCT TOWARDS
BRYAN.

If there is one man in all the coun-
try to whose face there should come
the blush of shame that man is Sem
ator John NJ. Thurston, of Nebraska.
He takes up and adopts as his own
and repeats campaign lie about Mr..
Bryan, a resident of his own state, and
who had been his opponent for senato-
rial honors. The lie was the charge
that Mr. Bryan had been in the pay of
the silver mine owners. his business
being to tour the country and speak in
behalf of free silver. Had it been
true there was nothing improper in
the employment. The intention in re-
peating the lie was to raise prejudice
against Mr.. Bryan, the prejudice con-
sisting in the insinuation that his adj
vocacy of free silver was insincere, the
gravest charge that can be made
against g. candidate, or a man progni-
nent in politics. John M. Thurston
was guilty, by repeating this charge,
of trying to create an unjust prejudice
against Mr.. Bryan. When the charge
was denied, on such authority that it
could not be questioned, Mr.. Thurston,
in a sneaking and cowardly manner,
attempted to justify himself by say
ing that he had seen the charge in the
leading Democratic paper of Chicago,
which paper he knew to be so bitterly
hostile to Mr.. Bryan that it could I'm
der no circumstances be fair in its
statements about him. Mr.. Thurston's
aim was to throw mud on Mr.. Bryan
and throw the responsibility therefor
upon some one else. 1t, was pettyfog-
ging. for he knows that he who repeats
a Islander about another is equally as
guilty as he who originates it. Now
Mr.. Thurston comes out and says that
Mr.. Bryan's word is sufficient for him,
and that he cheerfully accepts it, But
why was not Mr.. Bryans character
and career as it was known in Neb-
raska sufficient for him before? He
seems to have the same hatred for Mr.
Bryan that the corporation he so long
served has. This is perhaps natural
when it is remembered that things
grow upon that upon which they feed

it. 1t would change the issue of the

would be glad TO have the issue chang
ed 1t is a very pronounced gold stand
ard paper, and may desire a change of
issue so as to make less certain the
election of Mr.. Bryan and the restor-
alton of free silver. But the Demo-
cratic party is pledged not to take UP
the tariff until the money question is
settled, except as to a few changes
necessary to supply needed revenue.
The Worlds criticism loses all force
when read in connection with the Chi
cago platform and in face Of the fact
that silver, and not tariff, is the para
mount issue.

that its opinion and decree in this case
virtually annuls its previous decisions
IN regard to the powers of congress ON
the subject OF taxation, and is there
fore fraught with danger to the court,
to each and every citizen, and to the
republic. The conservation and order
ly development of OUT institutions rests
on our acceptance of the results of the
past, and their use as lights to guide
our Steps in the future Teach the
lesson that settled principles may be
oVefthrown at any time, and confusion
and turmoil must ultimately result. In
the discharge of it's function of inter
preting the cons titution, this court ex-
erclSeS an august power. It sits re-
moved from the contentious of political
parties and the animositieS of factions
If the permanency of its con-
clusions is to depend upon the personal
opinions of those who, from time to
time, may make up its membership, IL
will inevitably become a theatre Pc
Htical strife, and its action will be
without conference or consistency.
The rights of every individual are guar
anfeed by the safeguards which have
been thrown around them by our adJu-
citations. If these are to lie assailed
and overt8lrown, as is the settled law
of income taxation by this opinion. as
uHuerStdHu b. the rights OF property,
so far as the federal constitution is con-
cerned, are of little worth. My strong
convictions forbid that I take part in
a conclusion which seems TO Inc so full
Of peril to the country
Mr.. Justice Harlan concurred in this
dissenting opinion.
If any one will take the trouble to
compare the language of the Chicago
platform on this same subject with
this, he will come to the conclusion that
the language of the platform is not
radical. 1t was clearly the opinion of
Justice White that the decisions of the
supreme court had been reversed in
this case; and it would be a very diff
cult task to refute the reasoning by
which he arrives at this conclusion. If
justices of the supreme court may hold
the opinion why may not others? Ger
tninly all good citizens will give cheer
full obedience to the decision of the
court; but that does not preclude them
from holding the opinion than the de-
cision is wrong, or from the right to
attack 1T in a future action.

JUSTICE WHITE ON THE INCOME
TAX DECISION.

Opponents OF the Chicago platform
so continue their denunciation and con-
demnation of what is known as the
income tax plank and make such seri-
Gus charges concerning the intent of
that plank, that it means the upset
ting of our whole judicial system and
the packing of the supreme court,
merely because it dissents from the
opinion of that august body in the case
of Pollock VS.. Farmers Loan & Trust
Co., that it is perhaps we'll TO give an
extract from the dissenting opinion of
Justice White in that case. The court
laid down the law in the case but did
not hesitate to cTiticise that opinion
and express their own. Says Justice
White:
My inability to agree with the court
in the conclusions which it has Just ex-
pressed causes me much regret. Great
as is my respect for any view by lit an
nounced, l cannot resist the conviction

BRYAN AND THE TARIFF.

The New York World thinks it is
very remarkable that Mr.. Bryan, in
his speech of acceptance, did not have
a single word in reference to the tariff
The significance of this, it says, is
further accantuated by his omission of
any reference to it in his other speeches.
The abandonment of this and practi-
cally of every other distinctive and
traditional Democratic principle for
the single issue of free silver, it de-
clares, is a fatal mistake.
It is a fatal mistake if tariff is tbs
paramount issue this year, but not
otherwise. Nothing would so delight

CHILDHOOD.


OH fly to yon fower-mantIed meadow
with me.
Where the beautiful children are playing,
And ask the bright fays as they trip
Ger the lea
What the leaves and the zephyrs are say
Their laughter is sweet as the odors of
May,
That breathe from the violets blue;
Oh! beautiful children, can years chase
away
All the secrets Spring whispers to you?
Alas when the springtide that smiles
round them now
Gives place to the Winters white rime,
And the sunlight that softly caresses each
brow
Is dul,ed by the shadows of Time,
Those voices that thrilled to the heart of
the young
VIII whisper their secrets in vain,
Their music grows mute as a song that
is sung,
And only a yearning remains.
Good Words.

There are a number of little boys in New
York who have devised a new scheme to
lure coin from the philanthropic travel
ing public, says a New York Mail and
Express writer. Passengers leaving the
downtown stations of the -L' road in
the early morning are now humbly and
supplicatfngly accosted by very dirty
little boys, who mutely beseech the pas
senSers for their newspapers. Now,
every one knows that a rumpled news
paper is about as unstable as a dead
horse, so the pitiful pleadings of the
little boys win for them sympathy, and
what they are really after-coinl One
of the little rascals acknowledged this
morning that he had collected 90 cents.
But half that goes to him. said the
urchin. and he pointed to a burly and
dirty italian who stood near the side
door of a saloon on the corner. The re-
porter interviewed the Italian, but with
unsatisfactory results.

LORD RUSSELL ON ARBITRATION.

The lord chief justice of England,
Lord Russell of Killowen, has delivered
his anxiously awaited address upon
Arbitration before the American Bar
association at Saratoga. 1t is a. most
temperate and conservative address,
/ in nowise utopian in the views set
forth. In this respect it may to a GER
tain extent disappoint anticipation but
it will not disappoint sound judgment
and sober reflection.
His lordship cornmends the arbitra-
ton of international disputes but he
does not hold that all such disputes
can be settled by arbidra ton. Friend
of peace that he is, he yet affiTTns that
there may be even greater calamities
than wharf.-the dishonor of a nation,
the triumph of an unrigtateous cause,
the perpetuation of hopeless and debas-
ing tyranny The correctness of this
will be generally accepted by people of
healthy and vigorous minds.
His lordship believes that arbitration
will not cover the whole field of inter
national controversy and unless and
until the great powers of the world in
league bind themselves to coerce a re-
csLlcitrant member of the family of ma
tions, we have still to face the more
than possible disregard by some power
of the obligations of good faith and of
justice. The scheme of such a. combin-
alton has been advocated, but the signs
of its accomplishment are absent.
When he says that he doubts whether
in any case a permanent tribunal, the
members Of which shall be priority
designated is practical or desirable, he
states a conclusion which those who
have given the matter much thought
are strongly inclined to believe The
reason for the conclusion he reaches is
that the interests involved are common
~ so enormous and the forces of nation
a. sympathy, pride and prejudice are so
searching, 50 great and SO subtle that
it may be doubted whether a tribunal,
the membership of which had a char
acter of permanence. even if solely
composed of men accustomed to exer-
else the judicial faculty, would long re-
tain general confidence, and 1T is to be
feared might gradually assume intoler-
able pretensions.
The practical. every day, matter-of-
fact view taken of arbitration by his
lordship is the common sense one It
is a practical question and must be
treated in a. practical manner. Lord
Russell so treated it. There was no
false sentiment in what he had 10 say;
no meaningless talk about kindred and
the ties of blood, those themes which
have been worn so threadbare that
their mention now on such occasions
as this at Saratoga is regarded rather
as sycophancy than as an evidence of
any extraordinary regard and esteem.
Lord Russell has made no attempt to
flatter our national vanity, and the peo-
pie will respect him all the more for it
