POPLAR APATHN

1t will remain difficult for a long time
to come to explain the strange apathy
which prevailed throughout the campaign
on the part of the masses. Nowhere
was the enthusiasm anything like what
1t had been in even the least enthusiastic
Of the presidential campaigns of the past
twenty years. Campaign managers found
themselves up to the last moment unable
to solve this problem of popular silence
and apparent Indifference. They made
their estimates just the same; and each
side determined that the silence Showed
for it. and its candidates. The sequel
proves that in that respect. as in most of
the other predictions which We're made,
there was iitt.e to justify those making

them save their own predictions and
the old rule of human conviction, that
the wish is usually father to the thought
The truth will probably prove to be
that the intelligent,7voters who are not
completely bound down to party consid-
erations refused to accept either side at
its own estimate of itself or its oppe-
nent. They refused to accept unques-
tioningly the sinceritysof either, and they
cast their vote finally on their own sum
ming up of a situation which really left
but little justification for enthusiasm.
The American people are essentially pa
triotic. The presidential election is the
most effective medium through which to
secure expression for this patriotism The
election just passed did not produce any
such result. From the proceedings of the
two conventions to the last speech deliver
ed from a public platform there was
everywhere the suspicion of something
underlying each cause which did not ap-
pear on the surface. AS the delegates
the mass of then-in the two conventions
were little more than a part of the ma
chinery for registering the prearranged
plans Of the managers, so, throughout, it
was accepted generally as true that it
was a politicians rather than a peoples
campaign.
With the same candidates and practical
ly the same issues before the people which
occupied the public attention four years
before, there was in the nature of things
much thrashing over of old straw-an oc-
cupation which is hardly ever promotive
of enthusiasm.

a DECENT CAMpArcN

There never was a campaign conduct
cd more entirely on plane of honorable
conflict than the presidential contest Just
closed. Personalities of the offensive
character, which have distinguished such
contests in the past were entirely alb
sent. The candidates treated each other
and We're treated by their opponents
among the voters with all the consider
alton which could and should be bestow
ed on the representatives of a great
cause. The election has been decided
pure and simple on the popular Under
standing of the merits and dement's Of
the political claims advanced by the op
posing forces.
When one recalls the conflicts of 1872.
1876 and 1884, there is much reason for
congratulation. Few men ever had be-
slowed on them such a fierce measure
of malignity as that manifested toward
Samuel ]. Tilden in the campaign of 1876.
Not even Thomas Jefferson himself suf-
fered more through the malice of politica1
craftsmanship. And MIR Greeley! The Door
old man was simply driven to INSANITY
and his grave, through the brutal ridi
cule which was heaped on him from the
outset. Blaine and Cleveland suffered
in about equal measure from the vi
porous character of the campaigns con-
Quoted against them Considering the
nature of the charges brought against
both of the candidates in that campaign.
it must be regarded as one of the vilest
and most discreditable to the American
people that had ever been conducted. or
is ever likely to be. 1t would be a crime
against all the higher attributes of hu-
man nature. We're such influences capable
OF being brought into play save under
the most terrific popular excitement.
Theodore Roosevelt and William J.
Bryan were the leading personalities of
this campaign. They both conducted
themselves with all the personal dignity
and regard for the amenities of life that
could be expected from them Under
much provocation each refused to allow
his personal feelings to find expression to
any considerable extent; and they may
be said TO have united in maintaining the
controversy throughout on plane of
legitimate and well considered public dis
cussion.
