Houston Post: 1T is gradually becom-

thoughtful and independent representa-

Ohio Issues.

ST. Louis Republics: The exposures
that attended the meeting of the Ohio
Populist state convention give fresh
evidence of the danger of pinning Dem
ocratic hope to the PROMISES of Pop
uIism and of the amazing stupidity of
the policy which would compromise
Democratic principle with Populistic
vagaries.
Between the Democratic and Repub-
lican parties of Ohio the issue is so
plain that all but those who are will
fully blind can discern it. The Demo-
Gratis stand on a platform that in ring
ing terms declares unalterable opposi-
ton to- trusts, the gold standard, the
robber tariff and all the motley host of
ills Republican legislation and admin
istration would infiict upon the coun-
try. The Republicans stand on a plat
form that is saturated with Hannaism.
Good citizens cannot long hesitate be-
tween them. Honesty and sound judg-
ment cannot be misguided. If Popu-
ism means hostility to Hannaisn it
had the opportunity in Ohio to say so.
This it failed to do by formal action
Instead, it took a course calculated to
fret ard hamper Democratic activity
that is now mainly concerned with the
destruction of Hannaism as the first
step toward governmental reform and
honest administration.
The proceedings of the convention
from the exciting opening of the tenn
pestuous close were tainted with the
suspicion of bribery. Open charges to
that effect were made upon the floor.
Since then the courts have been ap-
pealed to to take criminal proceedings
against the chairman of Hanna's cam
paign committee. This in brief is the
story of Populistic aid" in Ohio to the
Democracy. It also contains a hint of
Hanna's despicable and desperate cam
paign methods.
Ohio Democrats ought to be able to
whip such opposition. Ohio citizenship
is not so debased as to uphold the acts
of Hanna as revealed in the exposure
of his methods now being made at
Columbus or to tolerate the political
denominations that do his work

Hanna's Motto.

LeadYille Herald-Democrat: mo
man in public office owes the public
anything" This is the sentiment ex-
press by Senator Mark Hanna in 1890
when he was trying to bulldoze the at
torney general of Ohio into withdrawal
of a suit the latter had entered against
the Standard Oil company. The New
York World has dug up quite a his
tory of the case which details also an
attempt TO purchase the attorney gen
eral with $4,000
Commenting upon Hanna's letter con-
tanning this sentiment, the World sig
nificantly asks, what do the American
people think of Hanna as man, q
senator and an aspirant for further
political honors, and what do they
fthe American people, think of an adj
ministration created or manufactured
by Hanna and a congress subservient
to his will?
The Worlds questions are timely, and
the whole matter will, doubtless, be
submitted to- the judgment of all
thoughtful Americans. But we recall
that the World did all in its power,
in a Speaking, unfair and disloyal way,
disloyal- to the Democracy it processes,
to put Hanna and his administration
in place and power. Hence let us ask
further, what do the American people
think of the World which betrayed
them by supporting Hanna and Han
naism in the campaign of 1896?

President Harrison sent MS celebrated
prosperity message to congress IN De-
cember, 1892. using that enormous ex-
port total as the text of a sermon on
The beneficial working of the Mckinley
tariff.
Another prosperity message might NOW
be peaned. using the still more enOr-
nous export total Of 1S95-S1 as the text
of sermon en- the beneficial working OF

But the prosperity that comes from
vas. harvests at home. short harveSts
abroad and consequently immense ex-
ports of our surplus crops at higher
prices. was rot creafed by the Mckin-
ley tariff IN 1912 nor by the WILSON,
tariff in 1861. and even less by the
DGGiey tariff. not yet enacted when the
Improvement began. It came in the
course of nature, by che operation OF
laws that congress did not make and
cannot change

upon which our institutions are found
ed, and which the Democratic party
has maintained from Jeffsrsons time
to our own-freedom of speech, free
dom of the press, freedom of conscience,
the preservation of personal rights. the
equality Of all citizens before the law
and the faithful observance of the con-
stitutional limitations"
Near the close of the document con-
tanning what is now the creed of the
Democratic party, was this:
We denounce arbitrary interference
by federal authorities in local affairs
as a violation of the constitution OF the
United States and a crime against
free institutions. and we especially OBJ
ject to government interference by in
junction as a new and highly dangerous
form of oppression by which federal
judges, in contempt of the laws of
states and the rights of citizens, be-
come at once legislators, judges and
executioners.
In this latter plank the Democratic
party laid the foundation for the charge
Of anarchy which was hurled against it
by the gold standard press of sac gun
try during the presidential campaign.
Not only did that part of the press use
1t as weapon of attack, but g. large
number OF papers which had before
been Republican but which advocated
the election of William J. Bryan be-
cause he represented the silver forces,
withheld full acceptance of the Demo-
cratic platform because of that plank
cendemning government by injunction.
Government by injunction is an &C
complished fact, aud some of the Demo-
cratic papers which bOlted the party
last year on account of free coinage are
now IoudeSt in condemning the action
of the federal judges of the coal re-
gions in enjoining men from enjoying
the liberty of free speech. BY doing so
they endorse the anarchy" plank of
the Chicago platform.
Anarchy or no anarchy it is good
doctrine and is endorsed by the events
of today.
