THE WRONG OF SBOTIONALIsM.

Geographical discrimination by political
parties in their effort to secure supremacy
is the most threatening of the dangers to
our institutions. 1t has become the Gus
tom for parties to ignore sections where
there is no encouragement for success and
throw the weight of their influence to in
crease maiorities where they are already
sure OF winning. Naturally that sort of
thing creates sectional feeling, but as yet
all feeling of that kind has quickly passed
away Immediately after election. Never
theless. it is playing with fire, and it
might grow to be disastrous conflagra-
ton.
1t would be far better if parties would
throw speakers into sections which they
knew were welded to the other side. It
would leave no room for suspicion that
geographical discrimination was intended !;
besides, if a party believes its theories of
government are best suited to all interests,
it should want TO preach its doctrine in
every community. There is no section Of
this country that is not more or less de-
pendent upon every other section, nor
could injury be inflicted upon one commu-
nifty and all other communities escape
hurtful influences.
No greater blunder was ever made by a
public man than Bryan made when he
referred to the Eastern States as the
''enemy's country" There is no spot in
the United States that is at enmity with
another spot, and it is wronging the spirit
OF our system of government to even in
innate that there could be. There are
interests that are widely different, but
there is interdependence between all in
terests, and every one is necessary to every
other one if the Government means gov
ernment for all the people without dis
elimination.
1t is wrong, it is unpatriotic, to m isrep-
resent the personnel, the material advan-
tages or the integrity of one community
that advantage may accrue to another,
and yet it is done in every Presidential
campaign. We lose sight of the fact that
it is the people who elect public officials;
that the people who elected Harrison sub
sequent.y elected Cleveland; that the peo-
pie who elected Cleveland rebuked his ad-
ministration two years later, and that it is
for the most part these same people W no
will elect a President next November.
The people are responsible for the con-
duct of the affairs OF the State and Nation,
SANSP1 "Aeh oAhSAoiS lalA " OUey Iue peO-
pies instructions, and hence all the more
is the danger to our institutions when an
aspirant for political preferment attempts
to stir up geographical hatred so as to
solidify the vote of his own section. There
should be no ''enemy's country" in all
this broad land. nor is there such spot.
Trade, commerce and the people are free
to go and come, and when they are con-
fronted by enemies" anywhere they may
safely conclude that the glory of the Re-
public has departed forever, and that Sec
tional discrimination and hatred rule the
land.

WILL BE TBNDBRIY CARED. FOR.

OF one thing the Irish political prisoners
who were recently released from British
prisons may be assured. They will be
made as comfortable as the condition of
their health will allow. Irish-Americans
have taken the matter in hand, and they
are not the kind OF people to be satisfied
with any halfway measures; and there is
true Irish chivalry in insisting that con-
tributions for the relief of the ex-prisoners
should come exclusively from their own
race. There are plenty of Americans, who
have no Irish blood in their veins, who
would be glad to contribute, but all the
more glorious is it to Irishmen to prefer to
make it family affair, so to speak, and
themselves extend the tender care that
these terribly abused men may need.
Whether English prison rules are un-
necessarily harsh or not, the fact remains
that these Irishmen who have just been
released were and are still gentlemen of
culture and refinement and used to good
and kind treatment, and that they were
entitled to consideration on that account,
being merely political prisoners, but they
were subjected to conditions that were ex-
acting beyond all reason, and England
may be sure that history will note the
facts without fear or favor.
1t will not do for the British authorities
to plead in extenuation of their harsh
treatment of these men that the rules of
their prisons are applied to all alike, and
that they cannot be made to yield to &C.
commodate any one. for right at this mo-
ment DR.. Jameson's Imprisonment is made
little else than setting narrower bounds to
his going and coming. He is treated with
great consideration, and his friends have
access to him. Indeed, he is treated more
as if he was guest of the PRISONS Off
Gals than as law-breaker, and yet his
offense was greater than was charged
against the Irish prisoners.
But these liberated Irish gentlemen are
broken in health and cannot engage in
business pursuits, for awhile at least, nor
can all that British prison harshness in
ficted upon them be removed or undone,
and surely they are entitled to the kind
consideration of every one who loves right
and justice. However, they will not
suffer for anything that money will buy,
for they are in the hands of their own,
and their own are great of soul, warm of
heart and true to duty.

puoiatlon or practicing dishonesty"
In answer to a question put by visitor
concerning free coinage of silver he said:
Free silver would not mean that silver
dollars were to be freely had without cost
or labor. 1t would mean the free use OF
the minis of the United States for the few
VINO are owners of silver bullion, but would
make silver coin no freer to the many who
are engaged in other enterprises.
Mexico and China have tried the expert
ment. Mexico has free coinage OF silver
ana gold at ratio slightly in excess OF
sixteen and half ounces of silver to one
ounce or gold, and while her minis are
freely open to both metals at that ratio
not single dollar in gold bullion is coined
and circulated as money"
a workingman asked what was needed,
If not free silver coinage, to revive busi-
ness. The reply was: "It Is not an in
crease In the volume of money which is
the need of the time, but an increase in
the volume of business: not an increase of
coin, but an increase of confidence; not
more coinage, but more active use of the
money coined; not open minis for the I'M
limited coinage of the silver of the world,
but open mills for the full and unrestricted
labor of American workingmen."
When some one asked about the classes
being against the masses he promptly
replied: Every attempt to sway class
against class, the classes against the
Masses section against section, labor
against capital, the poor against the rich,
or interest against interest, in the United
States, is in the highest degree reprehen-
