Republican papers quote approx

City journal that the democracy
"babbles about some musty old
Question OF human rights" All the
strength the republican party had at
it's foundat ton was because it ad-
vocated the doctrine OF human
rights. No wonder that in a Han
matte administra ton, with govern
nent controlled by syndicates, with
a weathercock president-no wonder
that republican journals think the
question OF human rights a ''musty"
one. That is natural indeed with q
party whose leaders consider the
Declaration OF Independence an OBJ

And the Sentinel is right. The

campaign this year that will sur
prise our friends the enemy. Mime

Springfield Republican: The claim
that business prosperity grows out
OF the policies OF this administration
that the republican party is the
party of prosperity and the other
party OF acknowledgements little at
tention. We need not point to the
wholly fortuitous agricultural de-
velopments OF 1897 and 1898, when
short crops abroad enabled the
American farmer to market large
crops at unusually high prices, bring
ing into the country great amounts
Of gold to be added to the money
volume and the factors which make
for rising commodity prices and the
stimulation of industry. We need
not note the fact that this business
revival soon became of worldwide
extent, greatly assisted if not caused
by the enormous increase in the pro-
eduetion OF gold for which, We believe,
no political party here or in Europe
or in South Africa claims the credit,
We need only point to the great
panic and tive-year depression OF
1878 and the succeeding business
Industrial prosperity-all occurring
when republican policies we're in full
force and the republican party in
unquestioned possession of the gov
eminent. How shall we account for
that terrible depression on the theory
that the republican party is the only
party OF prosperity and that the
other party is the only party OF adj
versity? And if recovery from de-
preston and disaster finally came in
that case without a change Of party.
how can any reasoning creature sup
pose the present comparatively mod.
crate recovery came because a change
OF party and a revival OF the very
policy which was in force through
out the disastrous period of the
'1O's? This will do for consumption
among the partisans. but not among
men possessed with any degree what
ever of knowledge OF the industrial
history of the nation.
