An Anelsnt Theory Rsdlvlvu..

"A theory that was exploited by ras'
Gals i'm early ages and doubtless found
great favor with the ruling elements
I'm Sodom and Gomorrah is redivivus
I'm New York and Philadelphia. Brief
by stated, this theory is that it is the
publication Of damaging facts, not the
preparation of the shameful acts on
which such publication is based, that
is disgraceful and injurious to a city.
In those far-of days, before the art Of
printing was invented and when, Of
course. there were no newspapers the
rings that ruled, robbed, and ruined
cities, the officials who sold protection
to loathsome vice and hideous crime
blamed the injury TO trade resulting
from their wickedness on the gossips
Of both sexes who persisted in rebuk-
ing diabolism and pleading for reform.
"If these busybodies would only keep
still and wink at our peccadilloe5 and
amusements," said the rascals, the

PopuIsrlty OF Roo.sveIt.

That Theodore Roosevelt. Vice Presi.
dent Of the United States, is a Presi.
Dental candidate for 1904 there is no
longer any doubt That he is popular
and will be a formidable candidate for
the Presidential nomination goes with
out saying. We are often confronted
with the question, Wherein lies the
secret Of Rooseyelts popularity? II
is conceded that his is not a lovely
character, and that for modesty amia-
bility and democratic bearing he is
everything but a symposium Of such
qualities. Nevertheless, he is popular
with a large section Of the public and
as cordially hated by the higher politi-
clans Of his class. Mr.. Roosevelt is
popular and the secret Of his popu.
larity lies in his-AmericaniSm. He
u.s. from the point Of view Of those who
are his partisans, the typical Ameri.
can, bold, dashing, courageous, and es.
senually an American, who believes
in the native-born element and is
proud Of his birth and descent.
Roosevelt is an American. and he is
cordially hated by the foreign element
Of Washington and other political cen.
ters where the imported citizen lords
it over the native Of the soil. We are
not an advocate nor an admirer Of
the narrow nativism as represented by
knOwnOthing societies or A. p. AS.
who found their opposition to the for
eignborn citizen on religious grounds
and who would embrace q freshly i'm.
ported Orangeman as a brother. The
nativism for which Roosevelt stands
and which we are forced to admire is
that Amencanism or Republicanism
which is unadulterated by the Euro
pean aristocratiC assumptions of class
superiority and which is founded on
the theory that a natlveborn Ameri-
canal things else being equal
should have the preference, especially
where such have fought for the coun.
try, to an imported citizen, who settled
here since the War Of the Rebellion.
for official positions Of all kinds and
degrees. From Cabinet officer to
Government clerk, Theodore Roose.
velt would give the native Amer
lean and the American ex-soldier and
sailor the preference, and this fact is
known from New York to San Fran
cisco, and hence his popularity, which
is so unaccountable to politicians Of
the Mark Hanna stripe. Roose-
welt loves America; he is fighting
proud Of the land that bore him, and
his one object in life As to impress all
foreigners with that fact whether they
reside I'm Europe or temporarily i'm the
United States. We believe that Mr..
Roosevelt recognizes the equal claims
and Americanism Of the adopted citi-
zen who fought for the republic with
the natlye-born. And the native-born
who is animated by the right brand
Of patriotism will ever recognize as an
equal the adopted citizen who fought

DUKE HENRY ANGERED.
LEFT THE HAGUE IN A RAGE OVER THE
TONE OF A PARLIAMENTARY
DISCUSSION.

The Hague, Jan. 3.-The Second Chamber to-day
adopted without amendment various articles ap-
proving the Queens marriage to Duke Henry or
observation-disclosures by 20 TO 10 votes.
The Socialists objected TO the e16,000 grant to
Duke Henry. Others regretted that annual al
lowance was not made.
London, Jan. "A dispatch from Berlin reports
that Duke Henry OF Mecklenburg- -Schwerin. whose
marriage to Queen Wilhelmina Of Holland has been
announced for February Z. has left The Hague, in
dignant tho OF the Parliamentary discussion
the subject OF his future position. Whether
this is not. there Is no doubt there has
been endless trouble connected with the projected
marriage. Queen Wilhelmna has contrived TO
get UP much fuss about the style of precedence
that experienced in England in 1s4o. She wished
Duke Henry TO be created Prince Consort and have
precedence her mother but she was overruled
on both points. On the other hand, her solicitude
for her future husbands pecuniary comfort has by
no means been equal TO her solicitude for his
dignity. She has given up her original proposition
20 settle large him out OF her private
fortune and proposes that Parliament settle
eIe.Oo0 a year him. payable IL he survives Her
Ma jesy. While the latter is alive Duke Henry will
get nothing, according 20 this PLAN But there is
a very strong feeling in Holland that no allowance
for the Duke should be asked from the country,
considering the vast property at the disposal of
Queen wilhelmina Duke Henry's private fortune
is inadequate for his position Prince Consort.
