How Strange,

We claim to be reasoning, think
ing people and point to our great
national accomplishments as eyi-
dence OF that fact. Yet. when we
come to consider the matter, public
opinion does not seem to be con
,trolled by reason bu: by impulse
or prejudice. No one can sit down
now, after the collapse of the Pop
uIist party, and cody reason out the
cause of.the great temporary SUCCESS
of that erratic party except on the
hypothesis OF blind impulse and in.
toxicating enthusiasm.
Now since the bubble is broken,
and men haye-.1siuraels 4a.sI<asih
sober thought, it seems strange in
deed that SO many thousands OF in
telligent men should be carried
off their feet and held SO long by
such vapory failacies as formed the
basis for the organization. We seem
to be somewhat Of an erratic sort of
people, independent and fearless
and not given to profiting by the
history of older countries or even
by our own past experience. Like
the afflicted who flock around every
new fakir that comes to town with 4
new remedy for all human ills, we
are prone to desert the old and tried
school of politics and craftsmanship
and take up with any new scheme
OF government that presents itself
and glitters with many promises.
The strength Of the popuiist party
was in the prejudices and iealousles
of men and not in their reason.
There seems to be planted deep in
the hearts of most men an irradi-
cable jealousy against all Of their
fellows who get along in the world a
little better than they. They seem
to think it no. indication of want Of
ability on their part, bur an indie

alton of dishonesty and unfairness on
the part of the other.
ANY very wealthy man in a com
munity. no matter what fortui-
tous circumstance or exercise of
superior knowledge and skill may
have contributed to his sue
cess, seems to have the enmity Of
his less fortunate neighbors. This
unfortunate constituent of human
nature seems to have been taken
advantage of by shrewd and con
scienceless men upon which TO build
q so-called political party,
For years regular systematic
keffort was made by the leaders, both
by printed documents and fiery
fcratfeas, 70 fG7afTs and excite this
evil propensity, until men seemed to
lose their reason and blindly follow
their fanatical leaders. The most
wild and absurd doctrines of states
manshiP and public policies were
promulgated and greedily assimilat-
ed as the elimination of all wisdom.
The more absurd the theories
and more at variance with the en-
lightened and thoroughly tested
plans of government, the more greed
lily were they accepted by the peo-
pie. For time it seemed that the
new force in politics would sweep
the two old parties from the face of
the earth But at length, there
came day of reckoning and of
thought, and the reyulsion has been
as complete and as rapid as was
the rise OF this new power.
Time seems to be great healer,
and, in fact, in such wild upheavals,
it is the only remedy.
| Argument and reason will not
reach the insane man. Nor will it
appeal to the man who is controlled
soIey by impulse. 1t takes the
softening, seductive influence Of
time. Like many fevers, political
craze must run its course, burn its
self out.
! Now it is over and the third party
! is no more, we can only wonder
that it attained such proportions as
it did. Now the disorganized
forces of the defuuct party are look;
! ing the situation squareIy in the face.
Many thouand good level headed
Populists, who allowed themselves
to be carried away by the false rea-
soning and glittering promises of
their party who believe firmly in
the protection of American indust--
ries an d employment at good
wages of our vast army of laborers,
and the expansion and development
of influence and commerce will vote
with the Republican party which
/ always stands for that which is tru-
est, purest and best in our national
life. Many who bhndly believe IN
the Democratic doctrine Of free
/ trade, which always brings disaster
and ruin to our industries and made
soup-house patrons and tramps Of
our laborers, brought poverty and
distress to our farmers, prostrated
mercantile and manufacturing con.
Germs, wrecked our financial insti-
tuuons and spread misery and mis-
fortune in the land, will vote with
the Democratic party. Quite an
element OF the party, still blinded by
their prejudice or governed by their
malice, in an effort to get even,
will join the so called socialist party.
Yet, some good has been accom-
plishei by this party. It would
seem strange If amidst all. this froth
and dross of years of theorizing-and
assertion something worthy of at
tention should not be developed.
| We believe in thc theory that
The Chanute times. [volume] (Chanute, Kan.) 1897-1913, 1902-07-04

nothing is made in vain and that no
matter how perfect anything of
human origin may be, it may be i'm
proved upon.
The good drubbing the Repub-
lican party took at the hands of the
Populists in Kansas has made it
better and forced home many an
important lesson. 1t will be a long
time before Kansas Republicans
will again become ratified by soph-
istry and false theories.

Senator Bailey of Texas, in fit
of passion over fancied insult,
just after the adjournment of the
senate ON Monday night, violently
laid hands on Senator Beveridge of
Indiana, grabbing him by the throat
and shoulder and pushing him back
in his seat.
Such heathenish outbreaks OF
temper should be summarily dealt
with by the senate. These encount-
ers are becoming little to fte-
quent, aid If tie most stringent
measures are not soon enforced, our
senate will become q bowling mob
aud 4 disgrace to the nation.
