HERE WE ARE AGAIN.

The country has lately been af-

and the explanation was rather worse

Roosevelt has subsidized, but he is liable
to bob up any old day with an explana-

will be again filed with woe.
Meanwhile another Republican orator
has broken out. This time it's Con-
gresham Charlie" Grisvenor, of Ohio.
Charlie" stands very close to the adj
ministration. and he has been saying
things IN the far corner OF New Eng
land which have caused almost as
much of row as did the Hon. Mr..
Roosevelt IN the far Northwest. The
Boston Herald calls Mr.. Grosvenor 70

Somebody ought to whisper into Gen.

the Republican orators and newspapers
to bullyrag and abuse and bluff the
American people into either silence
or support. The game don't work.
Abuse isn't argument, and invictive
never yet convinced anybody. Roose-

From The Man Who Corrupted Hadley-

In my view a person who publishes
things in a mere newspaper could not
properly claim recognition as a literary
person; he must rise away above that; he
must appear in a magazine. He would
then be a literary person; also he would
be famous-right away. These two ambi-
tione were strong upon me. This was in
1866. 1 prepared my contribution. and then
looked around for the best magazine TO

REPUBLICAN "ARGUMENT."

Those who read the editorial COL
umns of the Intelligencer along about
campaign times cannot but have no
ticed the persistent course of abuse
and ridicule resorted to in the absence
Of argument and decency when Demo-
Gratis or Democratic policies and prin-
ciples are under consideration. It has
long been the habit of that paper to
pursue this course, but this year the
malady is much worse than usual, and
its symptoms appear daily.
Senator Pettigrew is invariably re-
ferred to as "pestiferous." Now, that
is a convincing expression. Mr.. Bryan
is ''the Apostle of Calamity" Hon.
John T. McGraw is The knight of the
Purple Pencil" Adlai e. Stevenson is
THE Axeman" The Bryan party"
are American Tagals." The late Kan
sas City Convention was "a mongrel
gathering" And so it goes. The edi-
torial columns of the Intelligencer are
daily filled with insults and abuse of
Democrats or former Republicans who
have left their old party. Any given
day will yield several quotations dis
creditable to decent journalism, I'M
worthy of any political organ, and
showing a hide-bound, narrow and in
tolerant spirit as remarkable as it is
vindictive. Anybody who does not or
can not agree with the Republican ad
ministration is ridiculed, abused, in
suffer or maltreated in some con-
spicuous manner The Intelligencer
hand is against every man who is not
with it, and it does not scruple at any
thing to show it's despicable tendency
to yilliication It's warning to for
mer Republicans and Independent vot-
ers is, IF you dare to vote against our
administration we'll cover you with filth
and brand you with a name" and this
idea is, apparently, the Republican
paramount" issue this year. People
are to be restrained from expressing
their honest convictions through fear
of ridicule or abuse-or both. The In
telligencer like Roosevelt, believes all
such stand for "dishonor," "dishon-
esty." "lawlessness,' license" cow
ardice," and kindred things. The pub
lie is noting the course of the Wheel
ing Intelligencer and other sheets of

Maine's September Vote.

Lewiston, Me, Journal
In 1896 the Republican plurality in Maine
was 5000 against 1900 four years before.
But the Republican gain was only 1890,
while the Democratic loss was p 900 Com
pairing 1896 with 1855, the Republican plu-
ralty was 1900 instead of 1900. But
the gain in the Republican vote was only
S.co0; the Democratic loss was ct ,000 In
other words 1900 Democrats stayed at
home. The Republicans can probably hold
their vote. but if these q, zoe stay homes
fail 20 stay at home this year, the Repub
lican majority will be so much smaller,
but will show no absolute loss so fer as
general party divisions ere concerned.
F.veryi cdy knows the norma; Republican
majority in Maine is not over 1900, in in
deed SO high as that The extent to which
these $1,000 stay-at-home Democrats will
participate in the September election, of
couse, is uncertain; but it is certain the
Democrats ae making more effort to get
out this vote than they made fou years
ago.
Wheeling register. [volume] (Wheeling, W. Va.) 1878-1935, 1900-08-24

tary loss is said to be half million.
But what is that against the loss of
life? And all for what? Because an
irresponsible mob was not content to
see justice administered to criminal
through the Courts of justice. What
have the leaders and moving spirits
in the mob to say about the
bloody corpse of eight-year-old
Ella Davidson, daughter of a promi-
nent citizen, shot dead in her mothers
arms? How will they answer for the
dead body of eleyen-year-old Glen
Wade, shot and instantly killed? How
will they reply to the wounds of Fred.
K. Vorwerk, who received charge of
buckshot in his abdomen, and who
cannot recover. How about young
Meow, aged eleven, who was shot
in the eye? And how about the long
list of wounded? And how about the
utterly insane destruction of the City
Hall and adjoining property? And
last of all, how about the disgrace to
the city of Akron, to the State of Ohio,
to the United States Of American, and
to civilization?
Another view of the case. Louis
Peck ATTEMPTED an awful crime. The
law provides a remedy. And it was the
sworn duty of the officers of the law
to protect the prisoner. If they did
not do that or attempt to do it, they
were unfit for public Office. The pub
lie expects that duty Of officials. And
yet because the officers of Akron dis
charged their duty, and saved the
criminal Peck from popular fury, as
they were in duty bound to do, and as
they should have done, they were re-
