Of gear, and sadly in need of
change and betterment, yet he
wrought no immediate good.
Very likely that was not his mis-
sion. If he came to earth today,
we hardly think he would inter
fere with the politics Of the coun-
try. This is government, as
Lincoln said, of for and by the
people; the political parties are
made up of the people, and can
be no better than the people COM
posing them. And, while we
do not presume to speak for
Christ as the Times does, if Christ
were here today we think he
would say, Make the heart right,
for if the heart is right the man
will be right, if the men are right
the political parties and the coun-
try will be right. If the govern
ment is ahead of the people, it
will not have their active support,
and must fall back to their level;
if the government is behind the
people, rest assured it will soon
be dragged up to their level. If
the people are all right, the coun-
Try will be all right, and if Christ
were here he would very likely
start in with the people, and when
hey were all right the parties
Ind the country would take care
IF themselves.

Democratic State, the home Of
Grover the Fat, instead Of pass
ing an antitrust law, held out in
dueements to the trusts to come
there and settle and flourish. Let
US sum up the attitude of the par
ties on the trust question. Re-
Publicans passed and enforced the
anti-trust laws that have been
passed; Democrats talk against
the trusts with a great show of
indignation, and whenever they
have an opportunity help them.
An anti-trust law was on the
statute books four years under a
Democratic Federal administra-
ton, and not even noticed. When
it found out under a Republican
administration that the Federal
Constitution was inadequate and
the law could not be enforced;
that Republican legislatures were

SHOULD GO BACK.

1t seems to us, tho we may be
mistaken, that a few of the Ger
man American papers in this
country with good to both this
country and Germany could move
back to the fatherland. This
business of sticking up for the
fatherland through thick and thin
and even against this country
smells just little of treason to
this country. We expect the for
eigner from whatever nation he
comes to assimilate with the
American born race. If the Ger
man is going to pull for Germany,
the English, the Irish, the Scotch,
the Welsh, the Cornishman for
Great Britain, the Dutch for HoI-
land and Belgium, the Chinese
for China, and SO forth, they will
be a menace to this country, and
it would be to this country's in
terest to shut them all out. A
little while ago we heard consid-
cradle talk about an Anglo
American alliance, and the Ger
man press with scarce an excep-
ton opposed it, not because it
would injure this country particu-
larly, but because it would prove
injurious to Germany. A few
miners while engaged in a riot
were killed down in Pennsylvania
a couple of years ago by the sher-
If and his aids, and after an ex-
animation the sheriff was exon
Grated, but these German-Ameri-
can papers are shouting them
selves hoarse because the home
country is not unidentified. We
10 not know the merits of the
case now under consideration, we
admit, but as the courts held the
sheriff to have been acting in dis
charge ofhis duty when he killed
hese rioters, we think it poor
policy on the part of the German
'apers of this country, and exclus-
vely the German papers, going
behind the court records to make
tut a case against the United 3
states. We don't think that l
hese papers represent the senti- G
nent of the German people in /
his country, While we believe r
hat the German has tender re-
ard for the fatherland-and who |,
you'd blame him-his love for t
america is far greater than his
I'VE for Germany. The German
apers of this country are placing
ne German citizen of this coun- Il
y in a wrong light and they V y
1ould be corrected. If thew c,
ont like this country, why they fl
nould go back to Germany. " "
