declares have changed their political
coats. Be that as it may. Granting
even that eight men Of more than ordi-
nary influence have, throughout the
great state Of Kansas, turned from the
democratic and pOpulist parties, what
does that argue? Is the renunciation
Of political faith one sided only?-frOm
Bryan to Mckinley. This the little
document would have you believe.
The fact Of the matter Is, that where
one democrat OF pOpulist goes over to
the republican side, there are a dozen
that 60 from the ranks Of the once
grand old party to parties that stand
for something something.
The republican regime has sent men
all over the state to find out those who
have turned, that their names might
appear in such odious documents as
this. One Of these henchmen was in
GoOdland not long ago, and falling into
conversation with a certain party whom
he took to be Of the same political
stripe as himself, told him Of his mis-
sion, saying among other things, that
where he found one convert from the
democratic or pOpuIist parties to the
republican party, he found a number
that went the other way, but that they
proposed to publish the names Of the
cody few who turned his way.
That the whole matter Of publishing
names Of hOps, many Of which are
manufactured, is simply pettifoggery,
no one denies. The argument put
forth is this; If one man does q GER
tain thing, it is incumbent on all the
rest Of mankind to follow. The repub-
Iican bosses, thinking the public a
flock Of sheep, try to shoe one over the
wall in hope Of getting the flock to
follow. This may work with the real
sheep, but with men, never! Men are
rational beings and have reasons for
the political faith that is in them.
Everyone who reads is conscious Of
the fact that this is a year in which
political migration is above the ordi-
nary, and is marked principally BY
migration into democratic
and pOpulist camps.
The republican party is fighting its
battle by political juggIery, while the
reform forces stand upon and are con-
tending for principle. Hence it Is that
the side which doubts the honesty Of
its own course, goes under cover.
Underhand work does not injure the
man or the party for whom it is de
signed, but ever returns to plague the
inEentnr

ROOsEVELT's BLOW AT LABOR.
Is Nov Pleading For the Votes Of LaborInE
Men, hut Read An Article Written
By Him -Four Years Ago.
rOmaha -World-HeraId.l


Theodore Roosevelt now pleads for
the vote Of laboriDg men. Il viii be
instructive to read an article published
in the Review of Reviews for Septem-
Der, 1896, and written by Theodore
Roosevelt. In that article-page 295-
Mr.. Roosevelt said:
''The men who object to what they
style government by Injunction are
as regards the essential principles of
government, in hearty sympathy with
their remote skin clad ancestors, who
lived In caves, fought one another with
stOne-hesded axes, and ate the NAM
moth and wOOny rhinoceros.
sThey are interesting as representing
q geological survival, bat they are dan
gerOus whenever there is the least
chance Of their making the principles
Of this ages buried past living factors
in our present life
FThey are not in sympathy with men
Of good minds and sound civic morality.
at is not a nice thing to wish to pay
ones debts in coins worth so cents on
the dollar, but it is a much less nice
thing to wish to plunge ones country
into anarchy by providing that the Law
shall only protect the laEIess and frOwn
scornfulIy on the IaE-abiding.
SThere is 8 great deal Of mushy senti-
ment in the world, and there are always
a certain number CT people whose minds
are weak and EbOse emotions are strong,
and who eferTesce with sypathy toward
any man who does wrong, and with in
dignstion toward any man who cbastises
the criminal for having done wrong.
These emotionslists, moreover, are al
ways REINFORCED By that large body Of
men who themselves wish to do wrong,
and Who are not sentimental at all,
but, on the contrary, very practical
It is rarely that these two classes con-
troll q great political party, but at Chi
cago this became an accomplished fact.
'iSaFages do not ike an independent
and upright judiciary. They want the
judge 70 decide their way, and If he
does not. they want 70 behead him.
The pOpalists experience much the
same emotions when they realize that

TWO LABOR DAY ADDRESSES


Boston TraTeler.I
Two distinguished men addressed
organized labor Of Chicago from the
same platform yesterday-W1liam
Jennings Bryan, candidate Of the de
mOeracy for the presidency Of the
United States, and Theodore ROOse-
velt, governor Of New York and can
didate Of the republicans for the vice
presidency. The two men stood side
by side in the reviewing stand as the
labor hosts marched by and broke
bread together at the same luncheon
table. Later both made addresses IN
the open air, one at two, the other at
four. Politics were barred and both
refrained from introducing the subject.
The addresses were typical, not only
Of the men who delivered them, but Of
the parties which they represent, and
the contrasts which they afford are
significant and worthy Of the closest
observance. Col Roosevelt was the
first speaker, and his address was elo-
quent, scholarly and interesting. But
it was Just what might be expected
from him. 1t was general, not specific,
theoretical rather than practical, and
oratOrical rather than deep. He had
much to say Of the dignity of labor"
and discussed many phases Of the re-
lations Of employers and the employed
in a purely academic fashion. Despite
his initial statement that he wished to
avoid Hmere glittering generality
that is the most apt Characterization
Of his address possible. He said much
Of problems, limited at promises but
nowhere hit the nail on the head as to
what should be done for labor. He
could not do otherwise, for his party
could not be committed.
How different the earnest words Of
Mr.. Bryan. He was afraid Of no feature
Of the labor conditions and met them
all boldly and in the right and broad
spirit. He dealt with specific matters
and urged important action in the in
terests Of the workingman. He praised
labor organizations and the good they
have accomplished and pointed out
where they can do more good He
deprecated the employers ablack list"
and the use Of the injunction of a
court to deprive the IabOring man Of
trial by jury. He earnestly advocated
the election Of United States senators
directly by the people instead Of by
the legislatures as important to the
increased influence Of the laboring
man in securing federal legislation.
Especially significant was his advo-
cacy Of a plan to add a secretary of
labor to the cabinet. "Such a bureau, ("
he said, would keep the executive in
constant touch with the wage earners
Of the country, and open the way to
the redress Of their present and future
grievances"
In a word, Bryan's address was prac-
teal, meaning much; Roosevelt was
theoretical, meaning little or nothing
The contrast is striking; the difference
is not only in the men but in what
they represent.

GROWING OLD GRACEFULLY.
The Days Of Caps and Wrinkles Are
Gone BY, and We Have Pretty
Young Women OF Seventy.
by Helen Ward.J

by Helen Ward.l
Happily for Us women the Old-fash-
Toned grandmother has gone out Of
fashion. May she. never be revived,
say I. Fifty years ago a woman prac-
tically retired from the pleasures and
active interests Of life at about her
fortieth birthday and began to get
ready to die. It made no difference
how young her spirit may have been,
nor how many years Of her young life
she had unselfshly devoted to the
bearing and rearing Of a brood Of
children. at 20 she was uncermOnious-
ly turned over to a contemplation of
the cemetery, where her place was long
ago assigned her, and according to an
inf1exible custom she dis6gured her
pretty head with an abominatiOn in
the way Of muslin and lace called
cap, put on spectacIes, took her seat in
the background and for 20 or 80 years
Cf she were not happy enough to wear
out sooner lived an existence which
must have been martyrdOm TO some Of
our ancestors-an existence passed in
black bombszine gowns made after an
especially hideous design, and bounded
by the churchyard on the east, the
chimney corner or ''grandma's own
room" on the west, the kitchen or nur-
sery on the north, when poor grandma
was not a woman Of wealth and the
daughters or sons homes for an occa-
sional glimpse Of the sunny south.
Growing old gracefully meant accept
ing fate and beginning to prepare for
the resurrection day at the fortieth
milestone.
Personally I always feel vicious
whenever I think Of the grandmother
Of 80 years ago, who was an old woman
at 40. I want even now to vent ny
opinion Of the selhshness that forces I
them to be resigned TO such fate.
oh, know what the casual man win
say should he happen to read this /
article, which wasn't intended for men,
anyhow. I can hear him rail 'What, . /
be win say, edo away with the dear old /
grandmother, that used to bake rs
cakes and give Us ali her spending /
money to buy fishing tackle With. I
Who vas always sitting At 1
her window waiting 70 help Us out Of 1
scrapes and ready to mend our clothes. /

THE PRESIDENTS COMPLACERT As
SUMPTION.

81 MPLAONs
There is something almost laughabIe
IN Mr.. McKinley's wholesale assump-
ton OF credit for the prosperous con
ditiOn Of the country. In his letter Of
acceptance the republican party and
his own administration are again made
the source Of all Of the blessings which
the people enjoy.
In the United States there are Ger
tain natural conditions which cOntri-
butte continually TO the happiness and
the welfare Of the people. There are
institutions and doctrines Of govern
ment beneficial In the highest degree
in their influence that were fixed and
incorporated in the political fabric be
fore the republican party was ever
thought of, and years before the presi-
dent first saw the light Of day.
With its climate, its soil, its intelli-
gent and progressive population, with
the opportunities for the pursuit Of
happiness vouchsafed by the constitu-
ton, the United States is bound to be
a powerful and fourishing nation. It's
destiny depends upon forces which are
supreme over any political organiza-
ton. Its industrial activity, for ex-
ample, and its enormous trade in man
ufactured products is not due to the
tariff, which Mr.. Mckinley exalts as
the fountain Of all good. Without pro
lection the wares from American mills
and factories would go with even great
er freedom than now to the uttermost
parts Of the errth, because Of the rich,
natural resources Of the country and
the enterprise and ingenuity of its
people.
The agricultural wealth Of the United
States has much to do with the envi-
able condition Of the people. Surely
the partisan complexion Of the govern
ment has nothing to do with the mag
nihcent crops which, year after year,
came to bless the husbandman, though
AIr. Mckinley appears to think that it
would be quite different if he had been
defeated for president in 1895.
The republican party-especially Ia
its earlier days-can point to much in
its history that is worthy Of praise and
commentator, but its amiable and
self-satisfied leader, Mr.. Mckinley,
really assumes too much when he robs
nature Of the credit that is due to her
prodissI generosity and gives it to tar
IL protection and to the gold standard.
