Wonder if the time will ever come when mer
will say, Because this Is to be done for ths
Government 1t must be done WELL The work
must be OF the best and the price the low

the work shall be scamped. the materials poor,
and the price extortonate. The desire OF men
to rob their Government is only the other side
OF tho policy OF having the Government support

This time it is Brother Gdeydanl,
Of the Gueydan News. He thinks
the Democratic party has gone astray
after Billy Bryan's win o'the Wisp-
is to | demand, and will soon be
loundering around In the marshes
and bogholes of defeat. Be this as
it may, time alone can tell. One
thing, however, is certain. If Is to
] was right in 1896, it is right now.
The assembled representatives OF the
Democracy Of this great Union, cali
ed from every State and Territory,
have solemnly set. the seal of their
approval upon 1.-THE utoplan fallacy''
as our brother is delighted to term it
and hence it becomes a tennet of
Democratic faith, just as much as
protection is a Republican creed. 1t
is i~ncontestably true that a question
OF great public concern can never be
settled until it is settled in the right
way. Just SO 1t is with the silver
question. 1t is part of the Constitu-
ton, and it was at the instance of the
cteditor class, the financiers the money
changers and coupon clippers that
the Republican helots in congress
struck down silver and denied it ac-
Tess to the minis at the established
ratio.
No, Brother, there may be as you
say, ssnot one fnancier Id a million of
VOTERS but among that million there
are a few, at least, who can see, to
whose interest it is to have the coun-
try run on d gold standard and they
know, moreover, that the howl about
a fifty cent dollar is on a par with
that other Republican lie-The for
eigner pays the duty

Bryanand and Stevenson.

The. National Democratic con-
yention assembled last week at
Kansas city and adopted its platform
on July 9Th, after which William j.
BRYAN was UNANIMOUSLY nominated for
president. There was an unmlstak-
able sentiment favoring David b.
Hill of New York for tn vice pres
idency, but he steadily refused and
the place went to Adlai E. Stevenson
of Illinois, who was vice president
under Cleveland during his last term.
Hill received 200 votes not withstand
ing his refusal and Towne the Popu-
list candidate got only 80 votes. The
platform is a ringing declaration for
a government of the people by the peo-
pie and opposition to imperialism is
declared the paramount issue OF the
campaign.

That politics doth make strange
bed fellows is not mole true than
politicians do cut queer capers. But
four short years since, in the Shreve-
port convention our old friend judge
Blackman OF Rapides did make the
welkin ring with his demands for a
specific declaration for 16 to ] in the
platform and even rent his raiment
and wept oopioqsly, metaphorically
when promptly squelched by gold
bugs led by Sam Robertson and Ned
Farrar. The other day at Kansas
city, behold Blackman cheek by jowl
with the gold bugs voting for a strad-
die! Hows this Bro. Mccormack?

Superstitious people may find an
omen says the Chicago Record, in an
incident that occurred at the f~ree-sil-
yer republican convention at Kansas
City the other day, which was held
in the rooms Of a local political club.
Among other ornaments on the walls
was a large portrait OF Abraham
Lincoln. When Judge L.. w. Brown
of Ohio, the permanent chairman,
was delivering his speech and charged
President Mckinley with s'devil
Worship" and with ssstr taking BY
fire and sword TO enslave an entire
race of brown men ten thousand
miles away the picture fell to the
floor with a crash that startled tht
delegates, and the glass was shatter.
ed into a thousand fragments, which
fell over the stage.

The Two Conventions.

Speaking of the recent convention
at Kansas city the Chicago Record
says ssThe democrats at Kansas City
talked sentiment. The republicans
Haunted prosperity. The democrats
directed their attack on the Philip
pine policy. Each party has claimed
the sole ownership of the American
flag. Each denounces the other for
trailing it in the dust. 1t is going to
be a flag campaign. The democrats
had an uncon yentional convention.
AT Philadelphia if any delegates had
taken off their coats and collars the
company would have been shocked.
The republicans cheered. The demo-
Gratis shouted. The republicans wore
tailor-made clothes. The democrats
wore store clothes. At Kansas City
the average age must have been seve-
raj years younger, in spite of the
large showing of wheel horses. At
Philadelphia the women waved their
handkerehiefs. In Kansas City they
cheered yocife rously. At Philadelphia
the seatholders were protected and
the crowd was held in partial subiec-
ton. At Kansas City the populace
overran the hall and could not be
elected Or controlled. As a deliber-
alive body the Philadelphia conven-
ton could claim certain points of
superiority. As spectacular show
of party enthusiasm the convention
at Kansas City beat the other far and
away.

One of the fourteen survivors oil
the first Republican national conven-
ton, held in 1856, Ex-Governor Sid
ney Etheridge, Of Ohio, declined in
an open letter the invitation Of Mark
Hanna to attend the PHILADELPHIA
convention. He gave the following
as his reasons for not wishing to visit
the convention:
1.-THE Philadelphia convention Of
1856 was made up of men who had
convictions of political rights and
duty and the courage OF them. And
they came together for conference
and comparison Of views, to the end
that by wise and tolerant concert Of
political effort the welfare of the peo-
pie might be promoted and the great
cause of human liberty advanced.
The Philadelphia convention of 1900.
has for its sole work to ratify and
register a political rescript set forth
by n man, having for its purpose to
perpetuate in power an administra-
ton which has wholly disregarded
the interests of the Masses"
This letter, of course, was not
read to the convention, and It is
quite safe to say Mark Hanna was
responsible for s~uppressing it. Hanna
does not like for any one, especially
an old fellow who is not sup to date"
10 tell him how to secure '.wise and
tolerant concert of political effort.o

A lofty sense Of national honor is
Indispensable. A strong hold upon
justice, purity and fairness must be
had in all our transactions but it
will be a sorrowful day for us when
we permit a romantic tradition and
a diluted whey Of sentiment to take
place of steadfast courage and UNI
hesitating business enterprise in
making the very most Of the opportu-
mites for national prosperity opened
up BY. our recent splendid achieve
ments in war and diplomacy. There
Is no reason for doubling our national
honor merely because we are enter
ing upon a new and grand era of de-
velopment. The only sentiments
which should be mixed with business
should be those that have always gov
efned safe, honorable and successful
enterprises.-The Saturday Evening
