thirty six electoral votes, each one of
which represented 39,5 American citi-
zens who had voted at that election. On
the same day of the same year Nevada
gave Bryan three electoral votes, each
one of which represented only 3,43S
citizens.
These inequalities show that the
entire system of government for the
United States is based upon compromises
and inequality which sooner or later
may give rise to discussions and dissen-
tions which will bring about recon
struction of the entire republic. The
CONSERVATIVE will endeavor to calmly
discourse from time to time upon these
questions upon the proper solution Of
which the perpetuity of the Federal
Union largely depends.

In his reflections
United STATES upon the French
revolution, Ed.
mund Burke says: "a disposition to
preserve, and an ability. to improve,
taken together, would be my standard
of statesman" Nebraska in selecting
senators may find men who can preserve
the good name and fame of the state
and, at the same time, have the ability
to improve both in the estimation of wise
and thoughtful people. Brains which
have thought, arms which have wrought,
honors not bought, advancement in the
public service unsought, are desirable
characteristics for a United States
Senator.

POOR RICHARD.

not come singly to
Mr.. Croker. His grief over political
reverses was indeed touching and
keenly pathetic. He sought to forget
his sorrows by leaving the scenes of his
humiliation and defeat and going abroad
to mingle with British sports amid the
pleasures of the race course. He had
hardly reached British soil with his
prize pugs and other congenial com.
panions when the tax gatherer swooped
down upon him and deftly touched him
for an income tax. A goodly sum of
Tammany revenue went to swell the
exohequer of her majesty. Mr. Croker
will soon be due for another outburst of
sympathy for the oppressed Boer. His
experience with the British revenue
officer, will, no doubt, materially inten-
sify his kindly feeling for Kruger's
cause.

COURAGE.

A man who is
COURAGE.
always just and
resolute, cannot be diverted from
fixed purpose, either by the misdirected
criticisms of his fellow citizens or by
their threats of exile from popular favor.
Moral courage-the power and ability
to follow ones own conclusions and to
fight for them against out-numbering
adversaries = is much demanded and
little supplied in American politics.
The Conservative, 1900-12-06
A COMPROMISE.

- Under the con
stitution, the Uni
ted States is government of com.
promise. The census of 1890 showed
that Delaware, the smallest state in the
union, contained 59,096 inhabitants.
Virginia was at that time the largest
and contained population of 747,61O.
Thus originally the constitution gave
twelve and one half men in Virginia no
more voice in selecting thirteenth
of the senate than it did to each man in
Delaware
The state of Nevada in 1900 contains
az, 1884 people, while New York shows
population of 7,26S009. Thus III people
of New York count for only as much in
choosing United States senators as does
solitary broncho buster or cowboy in
the sage brush of Nevada.
From the above it is apparent that in
the beginning the inequality as to sem
ators was almost as
marked as it is to-
day even when New York and Nevada
are cited. Inequalities in a republican
form of government are absolutely un-
avoidable and unerasable. Numerically
two states may have precisely the same
number of representatives in the house,
but one state has in it's delegation Tom
Reed or William R. Morrison, and the
other merely an assortment Of Omar M.
Kems. Thus the inequality of repre-
sentation is intellectually explained
and mentally illuminated. It is i'm
possible for all states to furnish the
ability of Mr.. Reed and the courage
and intellectually of Mr.. Morrison.
If representation in congress is now
actually based upon population, instead
of upon citizens, populational centers,
like New York and Chicago, where there
are innumerable unnaturalized foreign.
ers, hold great advantage over those
rural districts where foreigners are not
numerous. The state of Massachusetts,
perhaps, has almost as great an advan-
tage in the disproportionate number of
females which it contains and who do
not vote, as South Carolina or North
Carolina may have in the number of
negroes which they hold, who are not
permitted to vote any more than women
are in Boston.
In 1896 Connecticut gave Mckinley
six electoral votes. Each one of them
represented 29,065
popular ballots. At
the same election Idaho gave Bryan three
electoral votes and each one of them
represented only 8,898 votes. At the
same election New York gave Mckinley

MIR. Bryan had just concluded his adj

when the egg went whzzing over the
carriage and struck in the crowd which

threw the egg and at once placed him
under arrest. When 1t was konwn the
egg had been thrown at Mr.. Bryan the

rush was made for the prisoner. The
first policeman called others to his aid
and for n short time they had hard
time in protecting Myers from the fury
of the crowd The officers were COM

could bring their prisoner off.
