lhe bon mot Of Lord BeaconsfieId
mat 1t Is the unexpected that happens
The Tnex,ecto, is 50 constantly
u., verified in expert
ence that some
people apparently seek to break the
spell OF the unexpected by constantly
looking for it. When any new situa-
ton arises they set their wits TO i'm
agInlng how the most unfortunate cir
cumstances could take place. and the
amount of anxiety and foreboding they
1nfilct on themselves in anticipating
Inc dlSagreeable is almost as nerve
wearing as the actual happening Of
the unfortunate things they antici-
pate. But why should we so inyari-
ably identify the, unexpected" with
the Gisagreeable? The Boston Watcb-
man. speaking of this. observes that as
a matter Of fact the surprises of life
are by no means always uuwelcome.
Some Of the best things that ever be-
fell rs came in the chapter of acci-
dentS-a pure windfalI. We were i'm
agining the worst and the best came.
In view of this, is it not wise to let
the anticipated evil and the good bal
ance each other, and keep the imagin-
alton from forecasting too much? Ger
tainly, there l. about as much reason
for anticipating good accidents as evil

came cheaper, but the people had no
money to buy, market values fell still
lower. No profits remained for pro.
ducers, wages had to be reduced. hours
of labor shortened, thousands of work
men had to be discharged, mills and
factories and furnaces and workshops
became empty, and from the midst Of
industrial and commercial stagnation
low prices mocked the masses who
could not obtain the money with which
to make purchases.
But one need not dwell on a descrip-
tion Of those conditions. Mere refer
ence to them will revive their memory
wildly in all minds. In 1896 the repub-
Iican party was welcomed back o pow
er with open arms with rejoicing and
with the confidence that it would bring
back pros perity. To do that was not
an easy task. In any other country it
would have been a task of years. But
the splendid recuperative power Of
this nation came into play, and the re-
institution of republican policies
quickly had gratifying effect. Pros
perity returned; it has abided with
us, and grown, and is still growing.
In 1900, the representatives of the re.
publican party in national convention
assembled made this declaration:
I'VE rerew our faith In the policy of pro-
lection to American labor In that policy
our Industries have been established d.
versitied ard maintained. BY protecting the
home market competition has been Stim-
ulated and production cheapened. Oppor-

A State of Jefferson.

| St. Louis Globe Democrat.
The Atlanta Constitution says that
| if Oklahoma and the Indian Terri
toro should be admitted as single
State the State ought to be called
Jefferson, Gin honor of the illus
trious President whose name is as
ISOLATED with the acquisition of the
vast extent of territory known as
the louisiana Purchase." It adds,
however, that "the complexion of
Congress just at this time renders It
extremely doubtful whether the
name of Jefferson will meet with the
favor of the lawmakers at Washing
TOM
This suggestion that the name of
jefferson should be bestowed on
these two Territories if they should
be admitted as one State is not
altogether new, but it is sensible.
The Globe long ago
urged the same thing, and would be
glad to see the idea adopted. Un-
happily, there is not much ground
for hope that the suggestion viii be
favorably received by a majority of
the people directly concerned. The
residents of a community are usual
ly unwilling to give up their name
after they have had it for years or
decades.

l." ,hr course of his lecture at
New Orleans last Monday Senator
Ben TilIman applied his pitchfork
t." the political anatomies Of the
Louisiana Congressman who voted
with the Republicans for the Payne
bill imposing a tariff on Philippine
imports. The South Carolina
statesman said among other things:
in my opinion, arc fine group of Re.
publicans as have ever met, SO far as The
sugar interests are concerned They have
acted in opposition to all Democratic doc
Philippine measure that came up for con-
sideration in Washington during the early
par, of the month. They have departed
sadly from the doctrine laid down by Jeffer-
son and Jackson.
ssThe louisiana congressman by voting
with the Republicans have sold their birth
right for a mess of Pottage. The RePub1i-
cans finally will give the Louisiana sugar in
terests mighty little consideration"
The Gazette does not endorse
the action of the four congressman
from Louisiana who voted to levy
tax on the products of the Philip
pine archipelago. To say the least
Of it, we believe theirSsupport of the
Payne bill was undemocratic. AS
Democrats. representing Demo-
cratic constituencies, they should
not have gwen their votes to
measure which is genuinely and dis
tinctly Republican. TO tax goods
shipped from one portion of the
country into another, is most
odious form Of imperialism, and we
think the Democrats who endorse
such policy violate fundameL tai
principle of their party.
But as much as we disapprove of
the action Of the Louisiana mem
bers, we consider that Senator Till
mans censure of the recreant con-
gressmen is most refreshing ex-
ample of that unmitigated nerve
which seems to be predominant
Characteristic in the makeup Of the
South Carolinian. After severely
the Louisiana congress-
men for having voted for Republic
can measure, Senator Tlllman
makes boastful confession of his
own sins against the Democratic
party. He says:
81 tell you when the Dingley bill came up |
denounced it as thieving measure, yet
voted for it. You will ask then where were
my principles. tell you that bill was not
20 protect, it to foster certain institu-
lions; it was to spread the butter thick on
heir bread but at the same time few
crumbs in the South would get some butter
out of it, and voted for it because 1 wished
hat some part of the vast steals should come
his way, the South pays its share toward
he support of the central government and
should get something in return for it.
1t strikes US that if it is reprehen-
sible for Louisiana Democrats to
vote with Republicans in the hope
Of securing protection for sugar, it
s certs inly not commendable for
senator to aid in the
passage Of a notoriously ,nfamou
law in order to get a
few crumbs of the vast steal' for
lis State. The fact that he de-
the Dingley hill as
'theving measure" did not give
linn the right, as Democrat, to
'ote for it.

BENEVOLENT ASSOCIATIONS.
AR. LONGS LOGIC.
In q recent speech Secretary

eff Sloo.ooo.ooo shall be appropriated
for the navy by the present Congress, a
a small part will 60 for the purchase OF raw
material and something for salaries, but the
great bulk Of ii for labor in every part OF
the Union.
.sUndoubtedly Uncle Sam ought to reduce
taxation wherever he can. On the other
hand, it Is ShreWd and wise in him to run
as result his income is large, he confers
would by hiding it. II this year, haviae .
surplus, he spend, 500. 100000 for the
navy, let us remember that while IS spent
under that name, it is really spent. as said
before. in the employment Of the people
labor and in the purchase OF the material
they have to sell, and the people get it all
back again"
The Gazette is inclined to agree
with the City Item that Mr.. Longs
logic is not clear.
The founders of this republic
never thought that it would ever
become one of the functions
of the government to use
the power of taxation to collect
money beyond the legitimate needs
of the public business economically
administered. The declaration that
it is s'shrewd and wise" to spend
millions in building a navy in order
to make sbusiness good" will not
cause great surprise nowadays, as
the majority of the people seem to
think that it is the duty of Uncle
Sam to exercise paternal care over
the faithful. 1t is refreshing to learn
from so high an authority as the
secretary of the navy that the ex-
penditure of large sums by the gov
eminent benefits the people as it is
a means of returning to them the
money which they are made TO pay
by the different forms of taxation.
When Coxey's army marched to
Washington and asked for work
they were laughed at and told to
keep off the grass. Yet. that re-
aoubtable commander of the army
Of the commonweal, known to fame
as Jacob Coxey, had as much right
to call on the government for EN-
p1oyment as Secretary Long has to
spend millions of the peoples money
to sskeep business good" When
the bewhlskered followers of Popu-
lism met at Ocala and evolved that
gigantic farce known as the sub !
treasury plan, they were merely try
ing to get their money ''back again.,
4 thing, which Mr.. Long tells US, is
perfectly right aud feasible.
If the people will only think
while, they will soon conclude that
Mr.. Long is preaching monstrous
This government has not
been created to take money from
the pockets of the people for the
purpose of spending it for them.
Surely the people will not always
be fooled by an argument SO shallow
Ind devoid of all truth.
