wnAT Is CONSISTENCY

The esteemed Purcell Citizen
last week presented one of the
most curious cases of consistency
we have seen lately. At least we
presume that our nelghbor would
not dub its own editorial position
as inconsistent and therefore we
call it a strange case of consist
ency. 1t leads off with the follow
ing:
Secretary Hay is making won
derful record for himself. First
the open door," and now the
canal treaty, which clears away the
last difficulty in the way of the
construction of that great water
way by the United States. These
two triumphs will stand in history
by the side of the achievements of
any other secretary of state this
country has ever had as such.
Their effect will be felt for all time
and they may quite possibly make
Mr. Hay president in few years
This would have sounded very
we'll from a republican standpoint
if it had not been silhoueted in
bold relief against the background
of really strong editorial imme-
diately following it in which the
editor analyzed the treaty referred
to above and showed it up in al
its glaring an-Americanism, dem.
onstrating very clearly that it had
served to revive the abrogateC
Clayton Bulwer treaty and that tht
convention was in no sense vic
tory for Hays diplomacy, but
really made him appear pigmy il
comparison to PauncefOte's menta
acumen. 1t closes this long argu
ment against the recent treaty Will
the following strong denunciatiOn
The bargain is monstrously one
sided-to England's advantage anC
our disadvantage. No wonder th'
opposition at Washington an(
throughout the country is gather
ing strength every hour ant
threatening to make short work o
the convention.
If this is consistency then tn
lexicograpers should send out {
supplement to their latest edition
giving a new definition for con
sistency.
