That Editorial "We."

About the editorial "we," several
editors are shocked to find the editor
af the American referring to himself az
Il" The AUDUBON REPUBLICAN calls
it an innovation" and rude tramp.
ling on approved and established
custom" An explanation would per-
haps not be amiss. In the first place
the editor of the American is singular.
In the second place, college profes,
sors teach that it is bad taste to use
1--WE" because it is indefinite. A person
ought to be able to carry his college
training into practical life. Third,
when an editor happens to get a
thought into his own Uranium, there is
no reason for not expressing it as his
own. Fourth, the editorial "we' is
being discarded by a number of the
most progressive newspapers. Such
writer's as VIM. E. Curtis and other
special writer's in the Chicago Record
express their personal opinions under
the singular 81" Colleagues Mott
and Brown better get into the band
wagOn.-Harlan American.
VIM. E. Curtis is not the editor of
a paper but, as the American says,
writes special articles These are
signed. We would not contend that it
is not good taste to use the singular
pronoun in a signed article. Editorial
matter is not signed. He whose name
is at the head of the column as the
editor of the paper is supposed to be
the writer of such matter. We think
it simply question of taste as to
whether the. editor says 'T'' or 1--WE" in
such writing. We think it better
taste to say ''we." We prefer that

labor fifty-two weeks in the year keep
ing it up. many years, shall have !.
standing in the community of its own,
a sort of individuality of it's own
separate and apart from that of the
editor. We couldn't think of intrud-
ing our own personal pronoun into
these columns unless we were writing
something of personal nature.
However, we presume it is largely a
matter of custom and education, and if
Bro. Hansen feels more natural saying
''T' in his writing his readers will per-
haps become accustomed to it and re
gard it as admissible.

Governor Shaw has vetoed the val
ued policy bill, and it thus fails to
become a law. The main reason he
gives is that in his opinion such a law
would result in raising the insurance
rates. The Governor has thoroughly
investigated the matter having the ex-
perience of several states having that
kind of law to guide him. There is
good argument on both sides of the
question, but we are inclined to think
the Governor acted rightly. The way
to do is not to over insure. Then with
the reasonable rates We now have we
will not be imposed upon.

In speaking of the war in the Philip
pines the Advocate says, 1T surely
seems that it is time that this terrible
war should cease We are continually
told that the war is practically ended,
yet our soldiers are still obliged to
sacrifice home comforts and many OF
them their lives, for what?" That
sounds like encouragement to the
enemy. The American people are
hoping the trouble there, which does
not amout to real war, will cease, but
cease only with order restored and
with an acknowledgement of the au-
thority of the United States. Our
government can't afford to listen to
Hoar and Atkinson and those who cry
for peace, until the treacherous insur-
rectionists and followers of Aguinaldo
have laid down their arms.

At one time Garfield took his hearers
in imagination out to the graveyard of
dead democratic issues. He first came
upon grave and examining the inscrip-
tion found it was Estates rights, she t
to death at the hands of the great army
of Union soldiers" Another one was
Human Slavery, died at the hands of
Abraham Lincoln" Coming on a
newly made grave he found it was that
of "The rag baby, or greenbackism,
died at the hands of millions of repub-
lican voters" If democracy don't
give free and unlimited silver coinage
at 16 to good tonic quickly, it is
likely there will be another grave in
the old cemetery. Indeed it is sus-
pected by some that the thing is already
dead and that the party ,out of respect
is awaiting burial until some time along
in November of this year.

We notice that democratic platforms
this year nearly all criticise the Nc
Kinley administration for not favoring
the Beers in their war with England.
In this the democratic party is simply
following its habit of finding fault with
everything republican administration
does without regard to the merits of
the subject itself. They kicked Nc
Kinley because he didn't go into the
war with Spain sooner. Now they
kick him because he doesn't let go of
the Philippines, which came to us as
result of the Spanish war. They now
seem anxious that our country should
embroil itself in another matter in
which we have no interest except that
of humanity and about which there is
difference of opinion as to which side
humanitarian sympathy is due.

The Council Bluffs Nonpariel refers
to the democratic party of Iowa in its
gradual weakening on the question OF
the free coinage of silver at 16 to l as
sliding down the toboggan." Here
are their resolutions ON the subject
since 1896: ...
1S97-We demand the free and unlimited
coinage of both gold and silver at the present
legal ratio OF 10 to l. without waiting for the aid
or consent of any other nation.
1S0S-The free and unlimited coinage of silver
at the ratio OF l6 to 1, we hold t. be indspensi-
BILE TO the financial, industrial and political
independence OF our people.
1S99-We, the democrats OF Iowa, In conven-
ton assembled, unquallfedly and unreservedly
indorse the Chicago platform of 1896 in whole
and In detail
19OO-We reatiirm our unqualified allegiance
to the principles set forth IN the democratic
national platform adopted at Chicago In 1896.

The democratic state convention the
other day endorsed and approved the
action of the Iowa House of Represen-
tatives in its action against the Porto
Rican tariff bill. This is the most
severe criticism those republican mem
bers of the legislature have yet re-
ceived for that hasty, i'll considered and
wrong action, although they have been
roasted for it pretty generally ever
since. But when it comes to being
endorsed by the democrats, that ought
to wake them up to a sense of their
righteousness, if they were not laready
alive to their situation.
Audubon Republican. [volume] (Audubon, Iowa) 1894-1925, 1900-05-10

There was something of contest at
the democratic state convention last
week over the selection of delegates at
large to the national convention. Those
who remained faithful to 16 to wanted
John S. Murphy, of Dubuque, the most
pronounced 16 to free silver man in
Iowa, to go as one of the delegates at
large, while those who have had about
enough of that question, wanted him
to stay at home. Murphy was chosen.
In the roll call on that question it was
significant to Audubon county people
that this county's delegates voted
against Murphy. Is it possible that
Frank Bradley's policy on that sub
ject will yet prevail with Audubon
county democrats? Is it possible that
they are trying to turn the cold shout
der to the populistic element in their
party.
