employers? In whose prosperity are
we most concerned? The people OF
this country are justly alarmed at
the rapid growth Of great monopo-
listic combinations, and none more
justly so than their workingmen,
who, single handed, would be the
easiest victims of their power. Way
should they not organize?
"That fairness and justice do not
always prevail in labor councils;
that unwise or selfish leaders some
times guide them astray, no moro
condemns the wisdom of these Or
ganizations than the misdeeds Of
those elected to power and place in
our state and national governments
condemn the wisdom of political in
stltutions."
These sentiments constitute the
major key of his life in dealing
with his fellowmen, and there is no
minor key of assembling about him.
FAITHFUL IN ALL CIVIC
DUTIES.

large industrial affairs, he has never
failed to perform all his civic duties,
although he has never been an Of
ice-holder or an office-seeker. No
public or private charity but touches
his pocket book first and his SYM
pathies afterward. No movement
for the furtherence of education but
receives his cordial assistance. The
founder of hospital for children,
his hand is still helpful toward every
other movement to assuage and allie
viate the sufferings of mankind. In
short, Colonel Kilbourne is a human
being with human sympathies.
The above estimate of Colonel
Kilbourne is gratifying to his
friends in Columbus regardless of
politics, for they know that 1t Is
truthful and that much more might
be said in praise of him. The taking
of all of his employers to the Pan
American this week IS the latest
manifestation of his magnificent
generosity, but 1t is not an innova-
tion, for every year witnesses an ex-
curson of some kind in which en-
ployer and employees meet and have
good time on plane of perfect
equality.

trouble will be that fair minds will
be unable to deny that just ground for
complaint exists. But what is to be
done? Mr.. Bryan tells his union Ia
Dor hearers that the remedy for such
unfair inequalities in the dlstribu-
tion of wealth lies at the polls rather
than in mere unionism, and In this he
is right. Unionism at .est can only
benefit a part of the producing classes,
and largely then at the expense of
the other part. But to say that
through political action alone can ef-
fective remedial meosur be secured
is very easy compared with
the task Of defining just what we
should vote for ut the polls. And
right here Mr.. Bryan becomes dumb.
1t is certainly evident that the Kan
sas City platform will have to be re-
vised and amended materially to be-
come adequate to the matter in hand
AS a promoter of greater equality in
wealth distribution its money plank is
shown to be Of no use by the fact
that the Capitalization Of wealth seen
since 1896 has gone on under an ex-
pansion in the money volume much
greater even than free silver would
have caused. Plainly the problem
centers around the control of monopoly
in all its forms. This is the great
question of the day in our domestic
politics, and in leaving the money
question in order to give more atten-
tion to wise methods Of dealing with
this problem, there opens up to so
powerful popular agitator as Mr..
Bryan field of great public import
ance and usefulness. He and his
party must stand for something more
than n mere protest against the ex-
listing order. 1t must present effective
reform measures which appeal to
thinking people as such.

Among those present were men who

Akron's citizens have had enough
object lessons of late years to teach
them the folly of injecting too much
partisan spirit into the decision Of
questions raised in local elections.
The antidote for the overdose of
politics such as that from which the
administration of Akrons affairs has
suffered consists of general resolu.
tion on the part of citizens to "be
wise in their wisdom" in future elec-
tlons.

Did the Committee Have q Right to
Call on McLaurin TO Resign3

In q free country like this, where freedom
of speech is guaranteed, the Press and Banner
contends that Tillman's Committee had a
perfect right to ask McLsurin to resign. But
1t ia aNrare thing that a convention Of intelli-
gent men will do 80 foolish q thing as Till
mans Executive Committee did. They had
right to ask for any thing that they might
desire. They had q right TO show the divisi-
on in their own ranks. and they had right
to help McLaurin In the coming can vass,
even as one fourth Of Tillman's former fol-
lowers had a right to repudiste their old
leader.
The fact remains that Tillman's Executive
Committee had right TO make fool Of itself.
That same Tillman Committee had right
TO ask the Governor to resign, ifthey desired
his resignation. They had right to ask any
officer In the State to resign. They had a
right to ask Mckinley to resign. They had a
perfect right to make conspicuous political
figure Of themselves, II they thought such
action would be conductive to their health
and happiness.
But the Senator, the Governor and the Pres
ident OF the United States would hardly com.
NIT suicide under any circumstances.
Neither will McLaurin pay attention to the
unofficial. or Unauthorized acts OF Tlllman g
Committee. But the moral effect of proof OF
the division in Tillman's Committee will be
against Our Noble leader, and in aid OF the
junior Senator.

A Surprise.

The vote last week on the resolutions to ask
MoLaurin to resign was opposed by one.
fourth OF the delegates in attendance upon
the meeting OF the Tillman Executive Com.
mittee. From this vote 1t appears that Sena.
tor Tillman Is losing control OF his party
The Idea that five McLsurin men could be
found In his own select political household
must have been alarming TO the distinguish
cd Senator.
And from his vociferation we are led to be-
lieve that he fears that the days Of his dicts-
torship in Tillman's land are threatened.
The resistance 10 the resolutions against
McLaurin prove two things:
First-Thst Tillman is not az strong as he
has been.
second-That McLaurin has made inroadl
in the very sanctum ssnctorum OF Tillman
ism.
The undisputed evidence OF Tillman's an1.
iety about his hold on the people ia furnished
by his extreme anxiety in trying to excom
municate McLaurin.
Evidence Of the gaining strength of Nc
Laurln is furnished In the vote Of the five
dissenters-the five men who refused to vote
at Tillman's dictation.

Metropolitan Police.

The Press and Banner believes in local self
government but II q city refuses TO enforce
the local government. outside aid should be
sent, and If Charleston persistently refuses To
enforce the liquor law 1t appears to us that
the people OF the State will see the necessity
Of extraordinary measures. Speaking for
this newspaper we hope to see q determina'
tion on the part Of the people and the Legis-
lature to see that Charleston no longer openly
defies the law Of the State.
In bringing about sentiment OF proper re.
gard for the dispensary law, we are glad to
note efforts Of the Evening Post. If that
paper should succeed In its efforts to have the
dispensary law enforced, we should be
squarely against the metropolitan police
There is no likelihood OF metropolitan
police will be put on Charleston, II she con-
cludes to realize the fact that the city Is q
part of the State, and will enforce State laws
within It's limits.
But as sure as that city maintains Its spirit
OF defiance OF law. an effort may be expected
to instruct Charleston in the methods Of re.
specting the law. For years Charleston has
refused to enforce an important law Of the
State. If the people Of the country districts
have proper self-respect they will look after
Charleston in the future.

1.-THE SOUTH CAROLINA RUPTURE.

From the Atlanta Journal The con-
fiict between the supporters and the
opponents Of Senator McLaurin's policy will
be waged no longer In the democratic ranks
of South Carolina.
The State democratic executive committee
last night by q vote Of 81 TO passed resolu-
tion declaring that Senator McLaurln has
ignored the national democratic platform
cratic constituency who elected him.
The committee also declared that from the
standpoint Of honesty and self-respect he
should tender his unqualified resignation
Senator McLaurin is thus ruled out OF the
dem ocratic party of south Carolina by lts
rsguarIy na Candidate in
the democratic primaries and bis only re-
course is to appeal 10 the people as an inde'
pendent candidate.
That be will do 30 is not to be douoted ana

and much personal popularity. He nas tne

adopt almost any expedient and folloW a.

that man who has dominated the pohtlcs OF
The action OF the democratic committee
will strike many persons, even some Wno are
opposed to McLaurin as uDjustly proscrlp'
tive.
They believe that Senator McLaurin should
have had an opportunity to appeal to the de-
mocrats OF the State, and that 6y tnem a!
their primaries he should have been either
condemned or endorsed.
Now that they have read him out OF tne
party, Senator McLaurin's only appeal ls 10

We have no doubt that q great majority Of

Hard Blow at TilIman.

We see in the newspapers some speculation
as to the probable effect OF the Tillmau Ex-
ecutive Committee in passing q resolution
calling upon the Hon. ]. L. MoLaurin to re-
sign his seat in the United States Senate.
The Press and Banner attaches about the
same importance to the act OF the committee
as We would to the action OF any other CON-
vention OF Tillman's friends. To the friends
Of the McLaurin movement the extreme
measures to which Tillman had to resort is
most gratifying. II will be noticed that he
used all sorts OF epithets. from "traitor" down,
TO bulldoze bis followers. But In spite Of his
vehemence i've members OF bis own commit
tee refused to follow him.
We have no idea as TO the personal convio-
tions Of the different members of that body,
except in the case of Col Willie Jones, whose
recent publication would leave no doubt in
our mind that he had not the moral courage
to refuse the demand OF the boss TO vote
against his conviction Of right.
When IL Is remembered that the State Ex-
ecutive Committee was q partizan Tillman
body, and when 1t is remembered how he
rules his friends, and how he bulldozes those
who differ from him, the action o ( the com.
mittee was the severest blow that Tillmau
has received since he entered politics Ten
years ago.
There can be no doubt that the senior Sena-
tor realizes the danger of his losing absolute
control of Tillman's Land.
To change the situation:
II Senator McLaurin should call together
committee Of his friends from the different
counties and one fourth the number should
endorse Tillmsn instead Of himself the full
force Of the action OF the Executive Commit
lee can be seen at glance. There can be but
little doubt that the public will realize the
severe blow which Tillman received in the
recent action Of bis committee. His threats
and charges OF treachery were unavailing as
to on ne-fourth OF his men, while it is perfectly
clear that at least one man who voted with
him did SO against his con victions.
