There Is q general feeling that good
times brings votes to the party In
power. and the republican party. which
claims credit for the Improvement in
trade conditions, expects to keep con-
troll OF national affairs on its pretend
ed production OF good times. Expert
ence proves that the people as a whole
do not pay much attention to such
claims and that they vote pretty much
as they please. says the Illinois Dem
ocratic Press Bulletin.
In 1884 times were good Arthur
had made a very acceptable president,
apparently. The republicans nominal
ed Blaine and Logan. the strongest
ticket they could find. and yet they
lost the election.
In 1SSS Grover Cleveland. running
for a second term, was thought TO be
sure OF an election. The times were
good. work was plenty and wages
good. Yet Cleveland was beaten.
Harrison was the most capable pres
ident the republican party had select
ed for years. Under his administra-
ton times were still good in 1890 and
1892. Labor was employed and every
thing seemed in his favor. Yet both
in 1890 and 1892 the republican party
was shamefully beaten.
In 1896 times were bad. labor unem-
ployed and the people voted for Nc
Kinley. who was nominated on a plat
form pledged TO carry out the policy OF
Grover Cleveland rather than for Bry-
an. who was pledged to policy in op-
position to that which had brought on
the hard times.
The fact is the change in the cleo
lions from year TO year comes largely
from the men who work for wages,
nd when labor is well employed they
vote for whom they please. When
labor is scarce they vote for the men
who employ them. In 1886 three
fourths of the laboring men in the
country were for Bryan, but nearly
all of the employers OF labor were
against him. The labor:ng man with
a job for which two or three men were
waiting did not dare hazard his place
by voting against the wishes OF his
employer. while the map out OF job
was willing to vote any way in the
hope OF getting one. Capital was in
control Of the labor vote. In
previous years laboring men could az
ford TO be independent. for labor was
In demand. This campaign the greater
demand for labor the greater the
democratic vote.

RuRNHAM AND ROBERTA.

Some credit for the recent British
victories is being given to that Ameri-
can scout, Burnham, who Is on Lord
Roberts staff. This may or may not
be deserved, but 1t is certain that in
the sort Of fighting that the British
have had to do in the hills Of South
Africa, the Americans have had con-
siderable experience In the wars with
the Indians, the difference being that
the hills in South Africa are a little
higher than those which the Indians
occupied In the fights in Kentucky
and Tennessee long ago. but the forests
which the red men were In gave them
q great deal Of protection Then, too.
there were the campaigns against the
Seminoles in the everglades Of Florida
and against the Nodocs In the lava
beds. Americans have done a good
deal Of fighting against hidden foes
and, on the whole. have done It pretty
successfully.
