A NEW CHAMPION FOR HON.
BILL BYNUM.

The soul Of the esteemed Baltimore
American is nightly moved upon by
the strenuous opposition of Democratic
Senators to the appointment, as a
Democrat, OF ex-Hon. w. D. Bynum, OF
Indiana, to fat office. Says the
American:
These Democrats oppose Mr.. By
mum on the ground that he is not a
Democrat. AS 1T is we'll known, Mr..
Bynum has been lifelong Democrat,
having as such represented the Indian
apOliS district in Congress for several
terms. In 1896 he broke with his party
on the question of free silver, and was
the originator and official head of the
movement which eliminated in the
nomination of Palmer and Buckner For
the Democratic Senator'S to wage such
relentless partisan warfare upon Mr..
Bynum at time when the thing most
needed by Democrats Is perfect har-
mony is a poor political policy, as we'll
as n generally contemplate course to
pursue"
AS the American Is thick and thin
Republican newspaper, this attempt to
chaperone the Democratic party and to
promote it's internal harmony is touch
ing, If not novel. At the same time the
certificate OF orthodoxy with which it
thoughtfully provides the Hon. Bill is
the most naive document that has ever
fallen to the lot of that hungry and
versatile statesman.
After citing that the Democrats as
sert that Mr.. Bynum is not Democrat,
the American proceeds to prove that
they are mistaken, by showing that
he broke with his party in 1885," and
was the Originator and official head"
of the Palmer and Buckner movement.
This is, indeed, a wonderful testimonial
to Mr.. Bynum's Democracy-wonder
alike in Its source and its nature.
The Hon. Bill has amply earned a
job at the hands of the Republican
party. lie cut wide swath as a Nc
Kinley assistant in 1896. If Mr.. Nc
Kinley wishes to reward him 1t is but
natural. But when he attempts to ap-
point him as a Democrat it is only nat
ural that Democrats in the Senate
should have something to say in the
matter.
Democrats are quite competent Judges
of regularity in their own party. and
will do their own harmonizing. and
that without falling on the neck of

THE HAY MILITIA BILL.

A measure that will claim the at

the bill providing for the reorganiza-
ton OF the militia into a national
guard, which has just been prepared
10y Representative Hay, of the Seventh
Virginia District. Mr.. Hay is chair
man of the Democratic caucus of the
blouse, and is member of the Mill
tary Committee.
The bill carries an annual appropria-
fion of 100000, and contemplates the
complete reorganization of the militia
of the States OH the basis of national
guard to be equipped with the regular
service rifle. The plan of organiza-
ton is to be such that in time of war
the militia can be thrown into regi-
ments and forgades similar in every
particular to those OF the regular army,
and provides a plan of mobilization by
dividing the States into military dis
ericts.

proceedings in Congress in the matter

Here is q case where the national

and where the almost united sentiment

that course shall be taken, but what

First. n directly contrary policy i'm

strongly recommended that trade with

by the passage of a tariff bill by the
House of Representatives.
During this interval there was a ire

against tariff. but 1t awaited nothing

amount of the tariff rate The repre-

the necessity for large standing army.
always a menace and necessarily n
very expensive establishment Since
the war with Spain began the regular
army has been Increased from 26.61O
men to $4,000 regulars and $4,000 volun-
teers enlisted under special act of Con-
gress.
The general government has been
niggardly in the extreme In caring for
the State militia and efficiency as
fighting arm under such conditions
was not only not to he expected, but
was and is impossible. With an In
sufilciency of tents, clothing, rifles and
blankets. and with no provision for tar

considering. few weeks encampment,
regarded often as mere holiday out
ing, has been the miltia's opportunities
for practical soldering. Naturally the
militia authorities In nearly every State
favor some efficient plan of reorganiza-
ton.
The bill is not political measure in
any sense, but there is the probability
that If it Is allowed to get before the
House it will put the military party in
Congress on record, since Its evident
purpose and effect is blow at the
militarism of which the acquisition of
insular possessions Is made the excuse
and alleged justification. They who
are tooth and nail for u standing army,
to be used for purposes that will he
more plain by and by, may be depended
on to oppose this measure, and the
country will be interested to note just
who they are.
The efficiency of volunteers properly
armed. equipped and differed has been
demonstrated alike in the war with
Spain, in the Philippines and in the
Transvaal. The Beers are all volun-
teers. but they have whipped the best
troops of England two to one because
they were well armed, understood the
use of their arms and "had their quar-
rel just" A we'll organized and armed
militia would be a quite sufficient de-
Tense for this country in actual war;
leaving the necessity only for a small
standing army in time OF peace.
The fate of the Hay bill will enable
this country to determine in a. measure
whether 1t is safety or militarism for
its own sake that those who are now
in control OF our national policy de-
sire.

NOTES AND OPINIONS.
+ PERJURY AND TREASON.
(Naltional Watchmano

A black and ominous cloud of trea-
son is lowering over the Capitol at
Washington. The Hannaite mojori,y
or the committee on ways and means
IN the House of Representatives and
the Senate committee on the Pacific
Islands and Porto Rico have formula
ted bill for the government of Porto
ltico that is clearly beyond the powers
OF Congress to enact. The enactment
or the proposed bill will be an act OF
the blacklist treason. The measure is
such that no man can vote for II with
out beinng open to the charge OF trea-
son and perjury. If the proposed bill
should be enacted into Il law. receiving
the signature of the President, 1t will
be an act of .usurDation clearly beyond
the authority OF Congress or President,
and Will be the first step toward the
destruction of the government of the
fathers and the founding of an empire.
Congress itself is a creature of the
constitution The Constitution Is It's
breath os life. The Constitution not
only confers existence upon Congress
but it specifically defines the powers
and limitations of that branch of the
government If Congress can disre-
gard the mandates of the Constitution
IN regard to the most vital power with
which 1t is invested, namely. that of
icVylng taxes and collecting them, 1t
can with equal authority disregard
o'iici Hldlluite or limitation
placed upon it. If they refuse to recog-
nize the authority of the people as eX-
pressed i'll the Constitution as to what
they may do in one respect cannot this
arbitrary assumption of power nor

tardly movement that is now PROMISED

THE "ANTI-BRYAN DINNER.

The dinner seems to be the favorite
route for attaining unto things in this
country OF late. Whether it be the
launching of booms. Presidential or
otherwise. the founding Of a public
library or the reconciliation OF a pair
of "scrappy" trust magnates. the pro-
ject Is always started out In the cold
world with at least one square meal to
the good. Sometimes one meal Is all II
ever gets, and then again, as its appe-
lite grows, 1t proceeds to curtail the
meals of other people. But this is by
the way.
The next big project that is to have
victuals in the preface is, we gather
from the Brooklyn Standard Union, an
other anti Bryan movement. The
spread is to occur in the borough of
Brooklyn "as near as possible to April
49," and is to be an "offset to the din
ner in Washington on April 1Tth," and
we are assured that energetic opposl-
ton to the candidacy of William j.
Bryan is plainly in store"
This is. indeed interesting. not to say
tragic. Its portentlousness and sig
nIflcance are greatly enhanced by the
assertion that Hon. Grover Cleveland
has given his assent, and that while he
Will not be able to take his eye off the
cook long enough to attend. he will
"send a long letter." The boomlet of
Judge Augustus Van Wyck is to be
launched again, and Judge Wilett, of
Alabama. who did something OF the
sort once before, will play no mean part
in the imitation. In short, the only
material change from the similar func-
tion of some months ago in New York
IS the careful omission of Hon. Jim
Hogg. of Texas, from the menu.
The only value in this comedy Is the
lesson 1t teaches of how completely
men of more than ordinary intelligence
may be blinded by prejudice and
"bound in shadows" by local sentiment
Provincialism Is 9s plentiful and as
robust now as before the days of the
could this little coterie of New York
politicians fail to see the pitiful and
ridiculous figure they cut in the eyes
Of their countrymen with their dinners
and their ''booms?" How else could
they be led to suppose, in crisis like
khe present. when popular sentiment is
setting like the race of tide toward

chance of electinE as n stay to the
greed Of trusts and the drift toward
