any party; but say what Democrats and Republicans in the south all know when I declare that the only hope of the Re- publican party and of political progress in the south lies in the elimination of the ignorant negro from the voting body. Republican victory by means of the ne- gro vote will never bring the right stamp of men into its councils; nor will 1t have any basis of permanency.

Combination and Labor.

The principle of individualism has been rudely shaken by the new com bfnations of capital, and the industrial commission endeavored to ascertain from the million-dollar president of the steel trust the effects of this change Mr Schwab admitted that the man Of small capital has now small opportunity, but he stated that the man of brains has as good an opportunity as he ever had. MT. Schwab's guess as to the effects of the latter-day huge combinations is but a guess, and ex perience under the new conditions must be awaited before we have some thing better than a guess. The size of MT. Schwab's salary makes his guess no better than the guess of other com potent men.
 But if we assume that MT. Schwab's view is correct, We see at once what combinations of capital have done for labor, for the mass of men. Now and then man may rise to million-dollar salary, under the Schwab theory, but the rest must remain toilers, because the man with small capital has little or no opportunity. The man who tolls could have at the outset but little capi- tai, and MT. Schwab says the oppor- tunity for small capitalists in the in dustries of this country has been lost -that combinations of capital have taken away all such opportunities. It certainly looks as if MT. Schwab has correctly diagnosed the case.
 But when he goes on to denounce la bor organizations, he shows his hand as a million-dollar official If the toll CTS cannot become employers because of the want of capital, then certainly they should be permitted to protect themselves as toilers through organiza- tion against organized capital. MT. Schwab has forgotten his start in life, and is looking at the interests of labor from his million-dollar point of view. According to the Schwab theory cap- ital should be left uncontrolled to en- ter into any combinations it pleases, while labor should not form combina- tions for self-protection, because it places all on level, and none can un- der it become million-dollar presidents. What he wants for capital he does not want for labor. Capitalists may by association help each other to more capital, but labor must not by asso- citation better the condition of each toiler. The inconsistency of his plan is too apparent to make it forceful. He sees now through the spectacles of cap ital, and the position of the average toiler no longer interests him. His the ory Is too one-sided to commend itself to the toilers of the land. however much the capitalists may admire it. It is theory that is we'll summed up in the old saw, Every man for himself and the devil take the hindmost" Un- der the Schwab programme combined capital would supplant the devil in this world, and the hindmost, or Lne great majority, would have no friend at court.

 You can never tell by the szo of wom- ans waist how big her heart is.

The Murdered Priest.

 Father Phillips bore a relation to the enormous Catholic population of New York and nsylvania-numbering more than the entire present population Of Catholic Iseland-similar to that borne by John of Cronstadt to Russia, only this famous Cronstadt monk and preacher IS not Catholic. The Russian preacher is a father to his people, sternly self-deny- ing and sternly exacting the fullflment of the duties of the pious.
 Father Phillips, single-handed, pre- vented that which threatened to be the greatest labor strike in the worlds his tory. That Pennsylvania priest, Mary lander by birth, with nothing but his faith to back him up and with his entire earthly possessions amounting probably to less than fifty dollars, journeyed down to New York and laid the claims of his toiling parishioners before Pierpont Nor gan, the head of the Steel Trust with it's billion four hundred million dollars. The priest paid to Pierpont Morgan the worlds tribute-that he is great. Pier pont Morgan paid the priest the tribute that millions will be paying tomorrow that he was good. The great man and the good one came togther, and justice and mercy kissed each other. Poor Fath- CT Phillips-mankind could have better spared any other one of a hundred mill lion than hen'

An Almost Idea American.

Edwin F. Uhl, former American ann bassador to the court of Germany whose death is reported this afternoon, was all together one of the strongest men whom President Cleveland, first and last, called to his assistance" said former diplo- mat, in the Metropolitan Hotel last night.
 'I enjoyed not very extended personal acquaintance with the former ampassa- dor, it being limited to day or two in Berlin and several bright days Tn Paris, where I had the honor of seeing his beautiful daughters then young Wom- en of great vivacity and sweetness HaV- ing been, at that time, resident abroad for several years, had not had the opportunity of personally knowing any of my compatriots who appealed to the better side of my Americanism' lrn- agine, then, the delight Whicn my meeting with the Uhls in Paris gave me!
 "Offcially, I knew MT. Uhl well, and assure you that, in addition to his splen- did intellectual force, he was an amaz- ingly impressive man. MT. Cleveland-a great man not given to mistakes in the men he put in office-raised MT. Uhl from Lne dSSlSIdnL SeCF6ldiS oliP NA - the embassy in Berlin at the very mo ment when grave questions were in issue and impending between Germany and America.
 "I had the honor to be first to receive MT. Uhl, in the name of the state de- partment, upon his arrival in Europe, and I shall never forget his graciousness.
 This much said of him will be echoed in way by hundreds of Americans who served the republic in various capacities abroad, and who for a time worked under his direction. All these will say that MT. Uhl was almost the ideal type of the best American-one who was al- ways strong and always gentle"
