THE TWO GREAT. PARTIES.

| Brother McClanahan may always be
| depended on to put some variation of
this passage into his political speeches
l have strong faith that the Democratic
perty Will never advocate the passage OF
a law that will hurt an honest working
mGn. AS the history OF the Republican
party is rolling on, we have found that
the party nearer and nearer brought it.
self into touch with the wealthy classes
AT the expense of the poor people, and as
the Democratic party has advanced we
have found just the converse-it comes
nearer to the heart of the common people
Mr.. McClanahans faith Is strong
enough to remove mountains. He be-
longs to a party which, locally speak
ing, demands that nothing shall be done
to protect the natives from coole labor
on public works, yet he has faith that
the Democracy Will never harm an
honest workingman. Such a simplicity
of faith Is all too uncommon in this
carping age and II Brother McClana-
han does not look sharp he may fall a
martyr to 1t.
Broadly amusing as the McClanahan
postulate is in its relation to local af-
fairs, 1t becomes picturesquely comic
when viewed in its national aspects.
Today the Democratic party boasts
that 1t has, by force and fraud, deprlv-
ed the laboring class of the South of its
right to vote while retaining that cleo
toral and Congressional strength which
the presence Of that class in a tech
nically voting relation confers upon il.
The proud Southern aristocracy, Demo-
cratic to man, gives Bryan his only
hope of being elected President; and II
does SO through the suppression OF the
negro vote, the vote OF the honest
workingman OF its section. And let us
say In passing that Tillman, the ablest
Southern man in the Senate, declares
that the brown-skinned laborers of Ha-
wall ought to be treated In the same
way.

party towards white labor In the North

THE TRAMPING JAP.

The roaming propensities of the Jap
anese, now in evidence throughout
/ these Islands, are national traits. In
their own country the Japanese are
forever on the go and one cannot travel
the long national highway, the Tokaido,
without meeting thousands of appar-
emily aimless travellers. Like the Ger
man youth in his wanderjahre the
young Jap has an idea that he should go
beyond the mountains" and so, bay in
hand, he travels wherever fancy lists.
There are commonly no vehicles on the
narrow roads, save the rickshaw with
its human horse: and in any event
seven out of ten Japanese men would
prefer to walk than ride. On foot ac-
quaintances are made and intimacies
are formed, chance jobs are net with
and there is no extra cost as for u
rickshaw man in putting up at the
nearest inn. Centuries of this wayfar-
ing have made the Japanese astonish-
ing pedestrians. They will walk fur
Their and with less fatigue than any
other human beings save the runners"
of some savage tribes like the Red In
dams and the Australian bushmen.
Even yoked to the rlckshaw some of
them will trot thirty miles in n single
day.
Since the abolition of the penal con-
tract law in these Islands a small army
of coolie field hands has taken to the
road. Some nervous spirits fear that 1t
means mischief. but 1t does not, save to
the state Of the labor market. It means
sightseeing. Curiosity to so from place
to place, making new acquaintance
and raising unexpected situations is the
Japanese idea of outdoor pleasure.
Fortunately each Island Is so small and
the cost OF living SO high that the
coolies cannot, as in their own country,
roam indefinitely. Sooner or later they
must, from fatigue of familiar sights
and pressure of craving stomachs, go
back to work.

THOUSAND BOXERS KILLED.

SHANGHAI. September 24.-Li Hung
Chang Is carrying out his declaration
that he would destroy the Boxers. He
has telegraphed to Chinese officials
here that his troops have killed more
than thousand at Bang Chow and
dispersed large bodies at Ausub and
Chu-Chow, southwest of Picking A
dozen of their leaders were captured
and publicly decapitated an hour later.
He has issued orders insuring the safe
ty of the Catholic missionaries at
Cheng-Ting and Pao-Tang-

Der 18th the commandant of the Pei
Tang forts before the attack, and in
structed the commandant to evacuate
the forts on demand, but was disobey-
ed.

came tramps. The four years Of Demo
cratic rule ending on the 4th of March
1896, were the leanest years for labor
ever seen on the American continent; q
year of soup house charities. of outdoor
and indoor relief, of evicted tenants. OF
want and misery and degradation.
When the time came to get relief 1t
was the laboring class that arose and
gave Mckinley such an overlapping
majority of votes. And because of the
fat years that came after the lean the
laborlng men are supporting Mckinley
now.
1t Is the favorite sneer of all Demo-
cratic orators that the Republican
party is the party of the rich. Yet its
strength lies among the farmers, out
side the cities, in the middle class cleo
torate. Below that is class which the
Democracy has and is welcome to-the
proletariat, the Sons of Rest, the dis
turbers of the peace. But the farm
workers. the coal miners, the mill
hands, the mechanics and the artisans
the men who give the political atmos-
phere to Massachusetts and Connecti-
cut, New York, Pennsylvania, Ohio,
Michigan and Illinois are Republicans.
When New York State or Illinois go
Democratic it Is because the people of
the great, rich and prosperous cities
have out-voted the farmers and viii
layers Of the interior; when they go Re-
publican it is because the middle class
of which the Republican party is COM
posed have downed the fatted ringsters
of the city Democracy and their saloon
and gambling hell recruitage.
The true party of the people is the
one which Abraham Lincoln, the rail-
splitter of Illinois, was proud to lead;
the party which demands equal. suf-
frage for every citizen, white or black
or brown; the party which believes in
keeping the country prosperous by CIV
ing it's own working class control of
the home market and seeing that he
gets his pay in sound money. There
can be no better party of the people or
for the people than that; and the reason
is that it is a party governed by the
people and not by the bosses and the
rings.

THE INDEPENDENTS.

Robert Boyd wants to know why, ii
the native Hawaiians have the power
to run this country they should divide
1t with anybody? The question is q
fair one and it deserves fair answer.
In the first place the natives have not
the power to run Hawaii, even though
they can poll a majority of votes.
While the Islands constitute n Territory
their sovereign is Congress; and If Con-
gress chooses to do so it can alter the
organic law even to the extent of de-
priving any class of local voters of it's
franchise. Congress gave, Congress
can take away; and while that condi-
ton lasts neither native nor haole can
reasonably say that he governs these
Islands.
Now when Congress framed It's lib
eral suffrage it did so in the belief that
the natives were willing to accept the
responsibilities of American citizenship.
But what is 1t going TO discover? Why
that the first thing the majority of the
Hawaiians did was to form an anti
American political party. vaguely
promising to get even" with the white
man and supporting leaders who de-
clared from the stump that they would
affiliate with either Republicans, Dem
ocrats or Populists and especially OPP
posing and denouncing the Government
which the President of the United
States. in the exercise of his appointive
power, has constituted here.
This party has named ticket of one
color and has headed it with a man
who, II he ever reaches Congress, win
belong to neither party there and can
get favors from none. The Legislative
ticket, If elected, will have opposed to
1t both Republicans and Democrats and
the bulk of the property interests. Can
not the Hawaiian Independents see that
these people will have more influence at
Washington against them than they
can possibly exercise against these peo-
Pile? For instance IL the Republicans
and Democrats were ever to memorial
lie Congress to restore the property
qualification to the suffrage Congress
would not turn from them to listen to
the protests of body of electors which
is neither Republican nor Democratic
but anti-haole and anti-American to
the core.
Now for Mr.. Boyd's question: why
should the Hawalians divlde2" The
answer is to save themselves, Wise
leadership would guide the Hawailans
into the ranks of the Republican and |
Democratic parties where they would |
never lack for friends or influence. They |
could control both parties IL they
would; by going from one to the other |
they could register immense majorlties
II they chose; and the patience OF Con-
Eress would have to be sorely tried be-
fore IL would permit any Republicans
or Demeerats OF Hawaii to lose their
suffrage. But the course taken by
these Independents simply leads them

win the overwhelming electoral triumph

GRANT ON EXPANSION.

The st. Louis Globe Democrat re-
marks that an odd bit of testimony has
turned up to confuse one of the mos,
rabid of the anti-expansionists, George
S. Boutwell,, secretary of the treasury
under President Grant. Twelve years
ago n book was published in this coun.
try, entitled Selections of American
Patriotism" and Mr.. Boutwell, con-
tributed to 1t an article not only show
ing Grant to have been an expansion
list of an advanced type, but indicating
that Boutwell, himself at that time en-
tertained the same views. How it hap
pened at a later date that Boutwell, de-
nounced even the annexation of Ha-
wall as Imperialism, Is a matter not ex-
| planned. AS member of the cabinet
for four years, Boutwell, had n full in
sight of Grants ideas on the future of
the United States. and the article con-
tributed to the book referred to is
valuable. Boutwell, says it was a fea-
ture of Grants character, though never
fully developed publicly, to look for
ward to the spread of republican insti-
tutions and the English language over
the globe, and that his action in ac-
curing a protective power over Ha-
wall was due to this conception of flu
ture events.
According to Boutwell,, 1t was Grants
belief, that, as country, 1--WE should
turn our faces westward" that Europe
was already occupied to its capacity
and that 1.-The peoples with whom we
should cultivate associations and alli-
ances were the people south of us, upon
the continent, and the people west of
us, upon the Asiatic continent, where
there are hundreds of millions of people
waiting for an opportunity to enjoy the
advantages of commerce, and social,
and, in time, political intercourse, with
u.s." Mr.. Boutwell, concludes with the
remark that there are those now in
active pursuits who will see some of
the results toward which the eye of
General Grant, in faith, was turned"
The eX-secretary, says the Globe-Dem-
ocrat, has lived to see it himself and
to take the greatest pains to defeat it.
He questions the honesty and patriot
ism of those who sustain the govern
ment in the peaceful annexation of Ha-
wall and the acquisition of the Philip
pines, which was unavoidable unless
we turned our backs on national duty
as well as on a righteous national OPP
portunity.

DEMOCRACY AGAINST NATIVES.

In opposing the Republican plan Il
confine Government work to citizens
the local Democracy takes the side OF
the Asiatlc against the native. The
plank in the Republican platform
which aroused the denunciatory vigor
of Messrs. McClanahan and Bush at a
recent political rally reads as follows:
We favor the employment on all public
works OF only qualified voters and cit-
zons of the Territory. We believe that
eight hours should constitute legal day $
work for all laborers mechanics and
other persons employed on public works
1t appears this way in the Hawaiian
language:
Ke apono mel makou ka haawi ana
ma hama aupuni a pau | ma makaainana
vale no kupono Ike koho balota. he
poe makaainana hoi no ka Panalaau mel
A Ike manaoio mel makou | ka hoohana
ana 1 ma limahna no bora, ola ma bora
kupono no na limahana a pau, ma meka-
nika a me ma poe ae pau lawelawe
ara ! ma hama aupuni.
The first paragraph of the declara-
ton to which the Democracy objects
was decided upon after hearing COM
plants from the native people that they
could. get no employment on public
works owing to the favor given the
Asiatics. All or most of the Jobs went
to Chinese and japanese. Complaints
not only came from the natives but
from young Portuguese citizens; and
mindful Of the fact that the country
only prospers which takes care of its
people and does not permit them to be
elbowed out by foreigners. the Repub-
licans declared for a law making en- |
ployment on public works depend on
citizenship. There could have been no
more righteous undertaking. The
moment such law was passed natives
and Portuguese citizens could step In
and take the work that has been going
to nomadic Asiatics. On the other hand
IL the Democrats have their way. ma
tives and Portuguese together must
stand aside while the yellow men and
the brown men, who are only here to
make what they can and then get out,
draw thousands of dollars from the
Treasury.
The Republican party has no apollo
giles to make for its position. 1t belives
in home labor; 1t gave the native suf-
frage and the Portuguese n chance to
get 1t; now 1t intends to give them both
the right to do the public labor of the
land unhindered by coolie competition.
Though the flint of Democracy oppose,
the flint must split or crumble.
