ALGER AND THE CROWD"

Attention was called, several weeks
ago, to that curious book written by LIE
Bon, on the crowd" Extracts were
given, showing the ill-advised, erratic
and in some ways insane acts of masses
of men, who, on occasions, lose their
individual judgments, and act like
herds Of cattle or sheep.
At the G. a. R. campfire held in Gin
cinnati on the 7th of this month, Gov
ernor Pingree, of Michigan, read an ad-
dress, in which he denounced the man
agement of the hospital corps, and con
demned red tape in the army.
The Governor then began a new
sentence: If Secretary AIgar --''
Here he was interrupted by a shout
from Ayers friends in the camp, who
believed that the next words of the
address would denOunce the Secretary.
The audience lost control of itself 1t
cheered Alger and Kissed Pingree and
refused to let him proceed. Pingree,
thereupon, handed his speech to the
chairman and left the platform in
anger and disgust. After he had left
order was restored. The chairman at
once read from the manuscript the re
mainder of the sentence which the
crowd had interrupted. This was the
sentence: IF Secretary Alger had
been given full power such things
never would have happened"
The great audience felt at once that
it had collectively made an ass Of it
self. It called for Pingree. 1t tried
to make reparation. Every man in the
audience looked at his neignbOr or
some stranger and was ready to put
the blame upon every one, but not on
himself Pingree, boiling with indig
nation, refused to appear before the
audience that had so grossly insulted
him.
The incident is an excellent illus
tration of the errors that are commit
ted by the democracy, in ruling itself
The power of the crowd is an enormous
factor in politics The politicians ap-
preciate it's subtle influence in a nom
mating convention. The place chosen
for the convention largely determines
the candidates. The crowd on the
floor responds to the crowd in the gal
Ieries.
The moral of this incident in Gin
cinnati is instructive to the citizens Of
Honolulu: Avoid getting into large
crowds in town when politics is dis
cussed, as you may suddenly holler the
wrong way"
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1898-09-28

would never have entered politics. as
he was entirely domestic in his tastes.
Mrs. Lincoln, it is well known, and it
is so said by Herndon, made it so IN
comfortably hot for Mr.. Lincoln at
home, that he engaged in politics as
a diversion. and made 1t a wind break
against domestic cyclones. IF then,
Mrs. Lincoln. by many cantankerous
proceedings, forced Mr. Lincoln into
public life, did she not act for the
country's best good" as effectively or
even more effectively than Mr.. Blaine?
But, are we getting any nearer to the
real question, which is involved in the
impressive incident cited by our con
temporary? How can we make it use
ful in our own lives and conversation?
Or is the incident only used as a blister
which viii draw out the soreness and
Inflammation Of our little body polite,

politician. Mckinley. VINO dared to defy

tanning in office the Family Compact,

GENERAL sCHOFuELD'S OPINION.

Mai. Gen. Schofeld. in a letter to DR..
McGrew, dated in May last, referred to
the organization of the volunteer army,
on unbusinesslike principles. and said
But the spirit Of the times is 10 let
veterans stand aside on the retired list.
and give the boys a chance"
Only thirty-three years had passed
since the country had obtained a vast
amount Of experience in the art Of war
fare. at a cost exceeding that of any
war Of the century. This year thou
sands of experienced soldiers, trained
IN every detail of the soldiers life,
were to be had for the asking. Men
who had won their knowledge through
fire and sword stood anxously waiting
10 be called to the front.
But a new generation controlled and
expressed the enthusiasm Of the coun-
try. War was only a legend to it. The
sufferings We're not told. But the ex-
DIoits Of it's heroes were The stories
Of assaults. ard charges, and heroic
deeds were in all the books The great
solemn books, filled with the CHASTITY
reports of the surgeons were never
opened This generation hardly knows
that they were ever written. The ter
rible side of the story was suppressed
by the historians, because the average
readers are not students of wars as
agencies in the progress Of men, but
are merely novel readers looking for
thrilling adventures.
SO when War came, with it's grim
visage, this ignorant generation, ever
loyal and patriotic, welcomed it as
friend that would lead it to glory and
adventure. Even Sherman's aphorism
that war is hell" stood to it only as
a glittering generality.
There has been, in a sense, no war.
OF the great army of 100000 men en-
listed, not 10000 have been under hot
fire. But the real horrors of war, sick
ness and disease, have done their work.
The generation that in the noblest of
causes, precipitated it, becomes wiser
and sadder. What does it propose to
do in the future about it? That is the
question

SOMETHING ABOUT BLAINE.

The Bulletin kindly draws the atten-
ton of the Advertiser to the decided
contrast in the characters of John L.
Stevens and Jas. G. Blaine, in the con-
vention that nominated Nj. Lincoln in
1860. Mr.. Stevens supported Mr.. Sew
ard and Mr. Blaine supported Mr.. Lin
coin. Upon these facts the Bulletin
confidently asks:
Now dear Advertiser, in the light
of American history, which one acted
for the country's best good, John L.
Stevens or James G. Blaine? Blaine
believed in political organization, N
putting forward men who would COM
mand the loyal support of the masses
Stevens gave his support to men first
and the party afterWard. Answer US,
thou halfway omnipotent Advertiser,
tell the weak and feeble masses IF
Hawaii who was right"
Has this political conundrum any
local significance? If so what is it? Is
it the intent to suggest that some local
Blaine is working with pious zeal for
some local Lincoln as governor Of this
territory. and that he ought to, and
will, get the best of some local Stevens
who is maliciously working for local
Seward?
If the question involves no local
coloring% and merely involves a dis
cussion of the duty of public men, we
frankly concedc that Mr.. Blaine be-
lieved in putting forward men VINO
would command the loyal support Of
the masses" As he cordially hated
Mr.. Seward, he naturally believed in
this or any other proposition that
would defeat the ''favorIte son Of me
Empire State" More than this, Mr..
Blaine had an abiding faith that
James G. Blaine at all times com
manded the loyal support of the
masses" and for forty years he COM
manded it himself by holding one office
or another. He trusted himself more
than he trusted other men, and natur-
ally selected himself as the choice of
the masses.
As he was defeated, however, for the
highest Office by the loyal masses of his
own party, the principle he believed in
did not always work satisfactorily,
and he was accustomed to use rather
vigorous language about many of The
loyal masses.
If the incident of Mr.. Blaine's sup
port of Lincoln in the nominating con-
vention of 1860 is to be regarded as an
evidence of his wise selection of a can
didate, and not an attempt to beat
Seward, whom he hated, then it is only
just to give Mrs. Lincoln full credit for
the part she played in giving to the
United States and the world one of the
most extraordinary statesmen of the
century.
Herndon, Mr.. Lincolns law partner
for twenty years, remarks in his bio
grcphy of Lincoln that if Lincoln's do
nestle life had been a pleasant one, be

SPAIN IS ANSWERED.
Cuban Debt and Cuban Sovereignty
Positively Refused.

Paris, Oct 19.-Spain can no longer
have any doubt regarding the ultimate
attitude of the United States toward
the so-called Cuban debt. The Ameri-
can commissioners have declined to as
sumo it, or any part of it, by express
treaty or by contract.
They also declined to accept a cession
of sovereignty to the United States, for
in that case Spain would claim that
such a cession by its own force would
impose the obligation for that debt.
It is confidently believed that in re-
fusing to accept a cession of sovereign
ty, the American commissioners are
acting also upon their announcement
to the world in the intervention resolu-
tions disclaiming any intention to exer-
else sovereignty or authority over Cuba,
except for pacifcation and then to leave
the island to the control of its people
and it's people to the assumption of it's
obligations.
This position of the commissioners
couples itself with the declaration in
the resolution that the people of Cuba
are by right and ought to be free and
independent and good faith requires
the performance of this declaration, it
being plain that if Cuba were annexed
to the United States, while she might
be free, she would not be independent.

NEWTON ARKANSAS CITY
Proposed Plan for Municipal Electric
Car Line.

Wichita, Oct. 19.-There Is a move
ment proposed here to build an electric
line from Newton to Arkansas City. The
matter is being discussed and petitions
viii be started within a few weeks to
build 1t by cities and townships.
Judge W. J. Babb, who was the prin-
cipal factor in working up the voIumi-
nous petition for public ownership in
Wichita has investigated the conditions
On San Francisco, Carthage and Joplin,
Mo, and other places, and he thinks
the line could be built.
An electric line runs from Carthage
TO Joplin, a distance of IA miles, and the
crowds of passengers are enormous.
Judge Babb says that an electric line
between Newton and Arkansas City,
touching all intermediate points, would
bring the people into close comnunica,-
ton with each other and, while the
country is not nearly so thicl1ly popu-
lated as around Carthage. Galena, and
Joplin, it could be made to pay from the
very start. 1t would add, he says, thou
sands of dollars to the commercial in
terests of Wichita At a fare of 25
cents for the trip people would go all
the time in droves. It would make
community in common of $4,000 or 75,-
600 people and would be a great help
for all the towns and the country on
the way.

COLLINS CASE WITNESS.
Johnston Jordan, Colored Tough, in
Trouble at Newton.

Newton, Oct. 19.-Johnston Jordan,
the notorious tough of Topeka, who is
the principal witness of the prosecution
in the case against John Collins of To-
peka for patricide, was arrested Mon
day night in the room back of Joe
Weigand's cigar store for shootingcraps
with Robert Pherson, who escaped, but
for whom a warrant is out. A complaint
was made out against Jordan and Pher-
son, containing ten counts for gamb-
ling.
The Cubbison law provides a penalty
of from one to three years in the peni-
tentiary for each offense, so they may
get from ten to thirty years. Jordan's g
preliminary was held yesterday after
noon. He has retained an attorney and
will fight the case, which was continued
until this afternoon. His bond was
placed at 5000 on each count, or 81, 600.

HAS GROWN DANGEROUS.
The Sixth Street Viaduct Badly Need
Repairing.

The members of the city council are
having no end of trouble because the
pavement on the Sixth street viaduct
is giving way and the viaduct is fast
becoming dangerous for the passage of
vehicles.
The viaduct was built at an expense
Of $40, 600 at a time when AIessrs WhaIey
and LuH were ruling spirits in the city
council. They did not care what hap
pened to the viaduct in the future but
they had few axes to grind and the
erection of the long bridge was one of
the means for accomplishing that end.
The roadway is built of cedar blocks
and the planks upon which they rest
have been giving way. The council is
wrestling with the question of making
repairs. The street railway has no
money to repave it's roadway over the
viaduct and as their right of way takes
in almost the entire width it would
make the expense fall more heavily
upon them than on the city. But if the
city railway is unable to make the re-
pairs necessity demands some other
means will have to be found to repair
the pavement
