PROGRESS CREATES REPUBLICS
"The closing years of the eighteen
century witnessed the establishment of
republic dedicated to the doctrine that
all men are created equal and that
governments derived their just powers
from the consent of the governed. Dur
ing the nineteenth century the princi-
pie of self-government spread with
wonderful rapidity. Thrones crumbled
and constitutions were adopted. TO
use the language Of another The
crowns of kings were melted into can
non balls by the soldiers Of revolution.
Shall II be said that the closing years
of the nineteenth century witnessed a
return to force and to the exploded doc
trine that a few rule by divine right?
If so, the twentieth century will record
the swinging of the pendulum back to-
ward brute force and the dark ages. A
prominent Republican has said that
nations may die whether they expand
or not, but that only expanding nations
leave a glorious history. Nations will
narrow path, for the wages of sin Is
death, but there is no reason why re-
public should die.
"An mpire held together by force
must fall at last, but a homogeneous
republic, observing the doctrine of
equal rights to all and special privi-
leges to none, and expanding by peace
full means when expansion is desired
by those without as we'll as those with
in--eXpanding when expansion carries
with 1t no change in the character of
the government or the rights of the
people-such republic builds upon the
solid rock and need not fear dissolution.
Neither can 1t be said that the interests
of commerce require a war of conquest
Trade with friendly republic is better
than trade with hostile colony. Dur
ing the last 30 years our trade has ex-
panded wonderfully without the for
chile expansion of sovereignty.
'The new questions can be settled
by the application of the same princi-
Piles which Democracy would apply to
the old questions Every evil can be
remedied and every good secured in
domestic and foreign policy by q strict
adherence to the doctrine that govern
ments are made by the people for them
selves and are to be administered for
the welfare of all, without favoritism
to any,"

DREAD MENACE
To the Country In the Vast Power of the
Standard oil Bank.
(New York World.)

(New York World.)
The strength of the Standard Oil
bank is:
/. Its position aJ sole administrator
of the finances of that greatest, richest,
boldest, most unsCrupulous of monopo-
lies, the Standard Oil trust.
2. Its position as the financial agent
of the Morgan, the Vanderbilt, the
Havemeyer, the Schiff interests, the
railway Combine" the coal trust and
the sugar trust.
8. Its correspondence relations with
the most influential banks in the great
centers of wealth and population, from
San Francisco to Boston.
The power of the Standard Oil bank
is:
!. The vast sums of money deposited
with it and it's vassal banks and it's
tributary and allied banks: the hun
dreds of millions of capital in the form
of cash which 1t can mass to aid or de-
stroy any commercial enterprise.
2. It's millions upon millions of credits,
which it can expand or contract where
and when and to whatever extent the

The STANDARD oil crowd acting
through the STANDARD OH bank, is
moving on TO the domination of the in
dustrial, the financial, the commercial,
the governmental interests of the re-

CARDINAL G0TTI,
whom the Pope IL said To Have Named
as His Successor.


Pope Leo, It Is said, clearly designat-
ed Cardinal Girolamo Maria Gotti, pre-
feet of the Congregation of Indulgences
and Sacred Relics, as his successor.
Cardinal Gotti, the famous Genoese
monk, is a man of great piety and
modesty.
Cardinal Gotti has often been spoken
of as the probable successor of Leo. He
is a monk of the barefoot Carr lelite
order
He displayed diplomatic qualities of
the highest order in mission to
Brazil confided to him by Leo XIII. In
that country, in addition to the conflict
going on between the civil and religious
authorities, the church was in con-
siderable danger on account of the
lack of discipline. To the great aston
ishment of every one, the Pope selected
the superior of the barefoot Carmelites,
who happened to be Father Gotti, to put
an end to the disorder and reestablish
harmony between the civil and religious
powers.
Father Gotti, in two or three years,
triumphed over the difficulties, and his
success was so complete that oil his re-
turn Pope Leo decreed him Cardinals S
hat. He has already a small court
formed of those who believe his success
probable, who honor him as If he were
already elected. But he does not take
much notice of these flaterers. Great
ness appears to have no temptations
for him, for though clothed in purple
he occupies modest room-practically
a cell-at the Forum Of Trajan, and
sleeps on a monks bed
He is only Ga years of age. His politi-
cal tendencies are unknown, and should
he be called on to succeed the present
Pontiff he may be either a conciliatory
Pope or a fighting Pope, according to
his inclination and to the character of
the majority which may place him in
st. Peters chair. 1t is said that Leo
XIII. has often jestingly spoken of him
as ''my successor"

officials for fraud and enbexzlement in
Office and for offering bribes. Now If the
fellows have plenty of money they can
probably clear themselves of the SER

however, may not count for much.

but we suspect that in this respect at
least. states are pretty much the same.

GOOD CHANCE
For Some Englishman to Exercise His
Logic and Explain.
New York Journal.)

(New York Journal.)
England has tried and condemned the
Beers before the court of civilization
on the ground that they occupied land
which they did not develope, and that
when others came in who did develop
the land. the Beers taxed them and
gave them no voice in the expenditure
of the revenues they had produced
And the general voice of enlightened
men is that England has made a good
case. Good or bad, 1t Is, at any rate,
the case to which the whole British
nation is enthusiastically committed,
and for which II has thrown itself into
the "hell of war"
The other day the duke of Westmin-
lister died, the richest man in England.
A great part of his fortune, we are
told, came from an ancestor in the
seventeenth century having married a
lady who owned a farm of some 500
acres, on which the wealthiest portion
OF the West End of London now stands.
1t is estimated that the income is at
least 95OO,00O year from this property
now, and as 1t has all been built over
upon the short lease system the revenue
within the next quarter of q century
may come to exceed 91,000, 000"
The family of the duke of Westmin-
ister did not make their money from
farming that 500 ceres of land, but from
letting others build on 1t and develop
1t. When the tenants produced wealth
the landlord taxed them on 1t. and
gave them no voice in the disposition
of the revenues
Will some Englishman with a turn for
logic explain briefly the difference be-
tween the position OF the duke of West
minister's tenants and that of the
Uitlanders under Dom Paul Kruger, for
, the redress OF whose grievances
England Is now at warg

RECALLS SECRETARY CAGES SPEECH

Secretary Cages denial that he is
considering a plan for bank trust, in
which the government shall participate
with himself as the head. recalls a
speech made by Mr.. Gage to the stu
dents of the Chicago University some
years before he became Mr.. Mckinley s
secretary of the treasury. Writing to
the Chicago Record, Mr.. Lovett, then
a member of the class addressed by Mr..
Gage, says:
"To the Editor: w. T.. Curtis says in
the Record that Secretary Gage is in
clined to treat with levity the report
that he is considering a plan for a
gigantic bank trust with which the
government should deal and of which
he should be the head. A few years ago
I think it was in 1861 heard Mr..
Gage give an informal talk to about
score of students at the University of
Chicago, members of the Political
Economy Club, and in his remarks on
banking generally he eaTestly advocat-
ed the establishment of United States
bank similar to the Bank of England.
He poked great fun at Andrew Jack
son, because of JacksOn's opposition
to the United States bank, and declared
that American banking could never
attain firm business basis till the
English system, or one like it, were
introduced. In fact, he followed, in a
few brief words, exactly theline of ar
gument which would be suggested by
such a large institution as recently has
been predicted.

SALARY GRAB VOTED DOWN.

Lieutenant Governor Caldwell's
scheme to secure for himself an addi-
tional $1,000 to his salary, was voted
down in the House. This was COM
mendable act on the part of the mem
bers of the lower branch of the
General Assembly and it is hoped that
it may be taken as an indication, that
Mr.. Caldwell and his Cincinnati cohorts
will not control both branches of the
legislature. Seventeen votes were cast
in the House in favor of Mr.. Caldwells S
Salary Grab" If this can be taken as
a basis of the strength of the Cincin-
natl gang" the head of which is
George B. Cox, there is hope that the
House will serve as a check, on the ne
farious legislation which the Hanna
Dick Cox Caldwell combine expect to
secure through the new law-making
body of Ohio. 1t is, of course, too early
to predict just what will happen, but
the House has surely made a good be-
ginning, in voting down the first steal"
proposed and unanimously or almost so,
favored by the senate.

Representative Metzgar, of Stark,
voted against the Salary Grab" and
Representative Pollock voted for it,
Mr.. Metzgar shows by his vote that he
intends to stand by the tax payers in
his legislative career. He is making
a good beginning, and the present in
dications are that he is not under the
control and influence of the gang"
seeking to control all legislation in
both branches of the legislature.

Especial Correspondence >

Columbus, Jan. S.-A political writer
in one of the Columbus papers predicts
that Lieut.. Gov. Jones, when he returns
to his home in Youngstown early in the
week, will announce his candidacy for
congress from the Eighteenth district
to succeed r. w. Tayler. The News
Democrat correspondent saw Lieut..
Gov. Jones on Saturday. Asked
whether it was true that he contem-
nation for congress, he replied: IT am
not yet ready either to affirm or deny.
I may be a candidate and I may not,
1t will be altogether owing to circum-
stances. Politics is a nasty business at
best, and am not anxious to continue
in it. 1t is a pretty safe presumption.
however that Mahoning county will
have a candidate before the convention.
I have heard that Mr.. Norris has
thoughts of coming out, but he has told
me nothing. No, I cannot see that the
postoffice fight has hurt Mr.. Tayler spe-
cially in Youngstown. Mr.. Shaffer will
make good postmaster and will no
doubt give good satisfaction, although
he did edit a Democratic newspaper
about twenty years ago.
VIOLATED PAROLE.
Warden Coffin, of the Ohio peniten-
tiary, last night received word from
Prosecuting Attorney Brookes, of Co.
lumbiana county, to the effect that
Jesse McGregor, of wellsville, had vio-
lated his parole: that he would be
brought into probate court, and in all
probability returned to the peniten-
tiary. 1t will be remembered that Nc
Gregor was sentenced to the peniten-
tiary for life about five years ago, for
the murder of Lizzie Ewing, and less
than three months ago was released on
parole, the condition being that he alb
stain from drinking. 1t seems he has
fallen into his old habits. Warden
Coffin today said to the News-Demo-
crat man that he had grave apprehen-
sions when McGregor was paroled as
to the permanency of his reformation.

pointed adjutant general of the state,
arrived in the city from his home in

house early in the afternoon, and al
though he had not yet shed his mackin-
tosh he was surrounded by coterie of
people congratulating him and-well,
just sounding him little bit, you know
as to his prospective appointments
One thing is pretty certain. The ap-
pointment of Col. Gyger to the adju-
tant generals office was entirely un-
sought, so far as the colonel was con-
cerned; but it could hardly have been
more wOrthily' bestowed.
