DEWEY "WILLING.v

But that some Democrats are dis
posed to treat the candidacy of Admit
raj Dewey for the presidency seriously,
the whole thing would soon be "laugh-
ed out of court" We know Of no
more emphatic farce ever enacted be-
fore the American people. Yes, it is
more than farcical when brave sea-
man becomes the subservient serf Of
a society woman. AT her bidding he
flung gross insult into the faces of
grateful and appreciatlve fellow-coun-
trymen, by giving away sacred gift;
and when just but harsh criticism fol-
lowed he crOuched in a corner of her

Partisan gown, and howled like a

the presidency should be given him
he would present it to his wife with

COMBINES.

A recent writer has undertaken tC
justify combines and trusts among
men by reference to the conduct of the
lower order of animals on the same
line.
Yes, it is true that "birds" of feath-
er do flock together" and that sheep
and bufialOes, and horses, and in fact
all animals are controlled by such in
stincts, but we do not learn that when
the crows combine, the black birds,
and blue birds, and robins, and wrens,
and woodpeckers, and quails, and
larks, and red birds, and sparrows, and
mOcking birds, and humming birds
all unite to make contribution to the
crow trust.
Savages Ego it alone" but civilized
people initiate the birds and 20 in
families, in communities, i'm common
@ealths, in nations. So far, so good;
but when few trusts grow abnOr-
mally strong by laying tribute upon
all, it is time that protests should be
clothed in fighting garb and that bold
blows should be struck for freedom.
Carnegie 4 Co. have inalienable right
to join forces, but legislation becomes

FEAR GOD AND NOT MAN.

1t will give genuine joy to the great
body of American people to read the
following:
while the Paris Exposition is to
be kept open on Sundays, beginning
Easter Sunday. the building of the
American government will be closed.
Instructions have been sent by Secre-
tary Hay to Commissioner Peck and 10
Ambassador Porter not only to have
the United State buildings and offices
closed on Sundays, but also to use all
proper means to effect a united CO.
operation of the exhibitors to the same
end, and to have the motive power of
the American department quiet on
Sunday. This is in accordance with
the action of our government in the
previous expOsitions and worlds fairs.
The silence and the closed doors of the
buildings and apartments that repre-
sent the United States will be an inn
pressive witness for the American Sab
bath"

it surrenders its browning glory.

IT Is pas ing strange % us that some

reporting victories won by other farm

statistics tell as that "a merchants out
of every 100 eventually fail, and when
one reads that ont of 1000 lawyers in
Chicago 5000 are fat failures, and
when he knows that an preachers are
not y. DIS, and that all d. D.'s are
not great preachers, he is not surprised
that all "meu behind the hoe" do not
win victories. Some DO, however, and
IL is the pleasure Of the HERALD to
"say So" Most editors live and die
