An American Scene

Prom the St Louis Republic
II was a typica1ly Missourian poliH-
cal picture last week when Former
Governor William j. Stone and Con
gresham Champ Clark opened in com
pany their campaign for the United
States Senate, speaking under the
branches Of an oak tree in old Monroe
county to a vast assemblage Of Mis-
sourians in the open air.
IL was also typically American, as
indeed. anything distnotively Mis-
sourian Is certain to be. The SIMPLE
ity and yet the impressiveness of it
made the scene thoroughly character
istic Of this great, free and unpreten-
tiOus country The two orators of the
day were aspirante to the high honor
of a seat in the United States Senate,
The most august deliberative body in
the world They went before the peo-
pie in a spirit Of the purest democracy,
talking as man to man-plain and
straightforward talk, with no formality
or ceremony intervening between them
and the people who govern this coun-

NEW SPAPER OPINION
Mckinley on Anarchy
From the Chicago Tribune.

From the Chicago Tribune. iie
In the light of the tragedy at Buffalo,
a peculiar interest attaches to an ad-
dress delivered by Mr.. Mckinley at the
dedication Of a soldiers and sailors
home in Cleveland on July A, 1894.
Just before he spoke the assembled
school children OF Cleveland had sung
a patriotic song, beating time to their
music with flags which they held in
their hands. Mr. Mckinley began by
referring TO this pleasing sight, add
ing: with patriotism in our hearts
and with the flag of our country in our
hands there is no danger of anarchy
Anarchy fees before patriot
ism. Peace and order and security and
liberty are safe so long as love of our
country burns in the hearts Of our
people Liberty to make our
own laws does not give us license to
break them. Liberty to make our own
laws commands a duty to observe them
ourselves and enforce obedience among
all others within their jurisdiction.
Liberty. my fellow citizens, is respon-
sibility, and responsibility is duty, and
that duty is to preserve the exceptional
liberty we enjoy within the law, and
for the law. and by the law" His
statement that anarchy and patriotism
are deadly foes could have had no more
striking illustration than his own
death. BY personal conviction as well
as by official position, Mr.. Mckinley
was the embodiment of the idea OF
liberty under law. He was struck
down because of that fact, His death
teaches the same lesson as his Cleve-
land speech-that the enforcement Of
iuzl laws and the inculcation or true
patriotism are the safest and surest
means Of SURPRISING anarchy.

There seems to be a question as to
what constitutes Republican loyalty. In
New York it means one thing, in Penn
sylvania another. In the former State
dhe supreme test is made OF good citl-
zenship, while in our neighboring COM
monwealth 1t consists in servile recog-
milton of the powers in control.
We think The New York idea must
ultimately prevail, especially under con-
ditions such as obtain in the two States
mentioned, at the present time. Under
ordinary conditions, when an organiza-
tion is THE representative OF vital prin-
ciples and policies, and when there is
am apparent honesty and decency in
THE conduct Of party affairs, loyalty
may be absolutely relied upon.
But when there is not even a pre-
tense of decency, and when the law is
defed and the fundamental idea OF
good government is houted, a protest
may be expected But THIS protest is
not against the party, it. is simply
against Those who, drunk with power,
have prostittted their authority to selr
hih greed. "
1t is a fine spectacle, forsoOtlh, to see
some party follower placed in control
of the party machinery, revealing in
debauchery, blot on the fair reputa-
tion of his party, commaning the al
leglance of decent men on penalty of
communication. The men who love
