New York Democrats.

The Democrats of New York have
nominated John B. stanchfeld for gov
ernor. 1t was n triumph OF Boss Croker
and Tammany over the better element
of both state and city. Those Demo-
Gratis who are in favor of honest state
government and opposed to the rascal
tiles of the crowd In control of the
municipality have for long time been
in favor OF the nomination OF Bird s.
Coler, the controller OF New York. who
has made so fine q record In recent
years. Croker. who naturally has no
use for man OF Coler's character, OBJ
jected TO the selection OF a person
whom he could not control. and his
word was law The Coler men, at the
head Of whom was David b. Hill, were
turned down without ceremony and the
Croker candidate won an easy victory.
The better element was helpless when
arrayed against the braves who obey
the orders OF the Tammany chieftain.
The nomination Of Croker candidate
makes a Republican victory in the state
all the more certain. The candidacy
OF Coier might have appealed to the
large independent vote. but 1t Is doubt
full II even he could have been sue
cessful In this. a presidential year,
when all signs point to Republican sue
cess everywhere. With Croker man
at the head OF the state Democratic
ticket, the election Of Odell becomes
a comparatively easy task. Democratic
fractional feeling has been running high
during the past few months and Cro-
ker's arrogance has created a breach
that will not be closed for some time.
Disappointment and disgust over the
triumph OF the Tammany boss will be
widespread among the better class Of
Democrats. and II Is anything but en-
thusiastic support that they VIII give
the state ticket.

Seattle. Sept. II. 1900.
To the Editor: Please answer the fol-
lowing question: From the adoption of
the constitution until 1851 were rot the
slaves in the Southern states enumerated
and three-fifths Of the number counted
in determining the number of representa-
tives in congress from the slave states.
Or, In other words. were not three-iifths
OF the slaves represented In congress by
men in whose election they had no voice?
H. FRY.
Mr.. Fry is entirely correct The third
paragraph of Sec. 2. Art /. OF the con-
stitution Of the United States provides
as follows:
Representatives and direct taxes shall be
apportioned among the several states
which may be included within this Union.
according to their respective numbers,
which shall be determined by adding to
the whole number OF free persons. includ-
ing those bound to service for term of
years, and excluding Indians not taxed,
three-fifths OF all other persons
The 'other persons" were the slaves.
There has never been one instant from
the foundation Of the republic down to
the present day when the doctrine that
"all governments derive their just pow
ers from the consent OF the governed
has not been Knocked at, denied and
trampled under foot in practice by the
Democratic party.
Its senator's ana representatives in
the whole period before the civil war
legislated for constituencies that had
no voice in their selection. Its presi-
dents acquired vast areas OF new ter
ritory without consulting the inhabi-
tants thereof. and governed thsm moro
despotically than would be tolerated by
any party now. Since the war its rep
resentatives have been apportioned on
the basis OF population excluded from
political rights by force and fraud. To-
day it is disfranchising the negro OPEN
ly and avowedly. In four states they,
are deprived of the ballot. and every
state OF the South is preparing to fol-
low suit
The history OF the Democratic party
is history of government without the
consent of the governed. The govern
ment OF Puerto Rico. the plan being
carried into effect by the Taft commits
sion In the Philippines. are the widest
excesses OF liberty as compared with
the constant practice of the Democratic
party for mote than century. It's last
and worst. its most extreme and in
defensIhle denial OF political rights 1t
has reserved for the present time; when
with one hand II holds high the banner
OF consent OF the governed" while
with the other 1t strips the black man
OF the rights guaranteed to him by the
constitution. How can any honorable
American citizen paiter with or forgive

Relief Fund for Galveston.

The Post-Intelligencer calls upon the
people of Seattle and Of the state Of
washington to come to the relief Of the
Galveston sufferers. No such calamity
has been known In the history OF this
country. A great city is almost wiped
out Of existence. Many thousands OF
its inhabitants are dead Half OF the
buildings are gone, the remainder are
injured. The people are daxed and help
less. They suffer for the immediate
necessaries Of life. Food. clothing. even
water must be sent TO them. And the
hours 20 by, each Of which may mean
life or death. We believe that It Is
necessary only to voice this need and
this appeal In order to hear the gener-
GUS response. Seattle has seen her time
OF need and known the value of sue
cor. She has given generously. too. Of
her substance TO others whose vista
tlon was not AZ terrible as that OF GAL
weston. Her Chamber OF Commerce
yesterday indorsed unanimously the
plan for a popular subscription and It's

1t should not be forgotten that sthe
National Union Reform party has put
up a presidential ticket with Ellis and
Nicholson as its candidates. This makes
about ten third parties that are in the
field.
