1T wisdom were represented by

confidence of the people. But
when advancing years show
greater hankering after Chinese

Senator Palmer is accused of
Inconsistency because he said just
before the Chicago convention
that there would be no split in
the democratic party this year.

The increase of $40, 100000 in
exports of manufactured goods
since the repeal of the Mckinley
bill is one of the things that is the
matter with Hanna, and also with
the tariff logic of Hanna's princi-

1t does not t6ke long in times
like these to fntkont>what man
is worth. The towards Nand dod.
gers stand revealed intho glare of
a great crisis. In this fight the
people are not playing with their
consciences. No great courage is
necessary to enable a man to fol-
low the dictates of his own CON
science and intelligence. Dedging
in politics never pays, and no one
gets smaller dividend out of
such policy than he dodgel
himself. He Is hated by both
sides and trusted by neither.-In-

Mr.. Palmer would prove a bad
candidate for any party, and he
himself seems to have had
suspicion Of this, for he did not
want to run. 1t will be unfortu-
nate if any considerable number
of voters, no matter what their
views on the financial question
may be, approve a candidate like
Palmer, who today, as in 1865,
cherishes the idea that all who
do not share his peculiar views
are lacking in honor and patriot
ism, and are unworthy of patriot
ism. .-Times-Democrat.

! The loose and violent denuncia-
ton Of the Chinese exclusion act
by Ii Hung Chang was a gross
and offensive breach of diplomat
iic courtesy and etiquette. His
utterances upon the subject were
at once ill-mannerad and amaz-
ling, and glaring violation Of
custom and propriety. IL was
precisely as if the American sec
lretary Of state, while paying an
official visit to London. were To
indulge in an angry denunciation
Of Englaud's policy toward Ire
land N. Y. Mail and Express.
Chicago is still kicking herself
in a senseless rage because Ii
Hung Chang avoids the town on
his way westward. If Chicago
had ordinary sense she would sim
