Is He The Man ?

1t looks as If Mr.. Tom johnson,
the Mayor of Cleveland, will be
| the nominee in 1904 of the Demo-
cratic party for President, and to
lead the fight against plutocracy.
The masses of the people have
become tired of the prevailing
conditions and feel the need of
some sturdy champion and who
that man will be is still question
in the minds of many. Tom
johnson looks very mpch like the
man to lead US out of the wilder
ness. He is a force il public al
fairs, a thinker, an oi ator, and
many of honesty of Purpose. ne
is just such man II do battle
against the allied pdeE ers OF ILL
gained wealth and imperialism.
We clip the following from a
speech recently delivered by Mr..
johnson which has the true ring:
"The principles of Democracy,
always old, but never obsolete,
confront us to-day, both in local
and national questions. One Of
these national questions relates to
trusts. For this evil our adver-
saries advise publicity as the rem
edy.
publicity! That might protect
investors against fraud; but how
could it protect the public against
monopoly, which is the basis of
trusts? Men whose incomes have
increased but little or not at all,
but whose living expenses have in
creased enormously-why should
they care for publicity? What is
needed is not examination OF the
account books of the trusts; it is
the sweeping of monopolies from
the statute books of the people.
"The money question also is
national, and let me tell you this
is no dead issue, as some would
have us believe. Dead though it
may be in one form, it is alive in
other and more radical forms. So
long as Wall street interests die
tate our financial policies the
money question cannot die. You
know that I have never accepted
the doctrine commonly known as
is to 1. have worked with those
who do accept it because have
believed, as l believe yet, that the
free silver fight was the first great
protest of the American people
against monopoly-the first great
struggle here of the masses
against the privileged classes. 1t
was not free silver that frightened
the plutocratic leaders. What
they feared was free men,"

We clip the following from a
recent issue of the St. Louis Globe
Democrat: "The Mobile and Ohio
railroad has inaugurated its dim
ing car service between st. Louis,
New Orleans and Mobile. A strik-
ing innovation is the uniforms
worn by the conductors. CARRIED
in silk-faced, brown broadcloth
tuxedos, with trousers to match
and high cut vests of white, corded
pique, with gilt buttons, they pre-
sented natty appearance. The
color and the absence of all in
sigma, to say nothing of the evil
dent expensiveness of the material
and the workmanship, constitutes
a marked departure from all es.
tablished precedents in railroad
uniforms, and is very pleasing to
the passengers"

We quote below an extract from
the Labor Day speech of the Hon.
John H. Reagan, only surviving
member OF the Confederate Cab
met:
"The country and the people
grew and prospered and enjoyed
q degree of security and happi-
ness unequaled by any people or
country" he said.
He commended that the future
and welfare of the country are
menaced by "the conflicts between
capital and labor, which are a
growing intensity from year to
year, and neither will yield to the
other.
"The only remedy, as far as 1
can see, is for the States and fed
eral government to enact and en-
force such laws as will make the
trusts, monopolies designed to
control production and the prices
of labor and property and all la
Dor organizations, criminal and
punl6naDle Dy penaltles so severe
as to drive them out of existence,
and thus get the people back to
their reliance in the constitution
and laws and courts for the secur-
ity of their property and their
rights. My belief is that if this
conflict between capital and labor
shall not be adjusted and settled
by the ballot, it will continue to
grow in intensity, and will before
many years be discussed by guns
and swords, and that its settle
ment will be made as the settle
ment of the conflict of the people
OF France was made with the mo-
bility and the priesthood in 1892.
AS matters now stand, it is a con-
test between capital and labor as
to which shall most successfully
levy unjust tribute on the great.
body of the people. One is rely.
ing on its money and the other on
its organization for supremacy"

There are many good items that
are lost to newspapers every day
by the modesty OF people who
hesitate to tell matters concerning
themselves. The right thing to
do is to stop the newspaper man
on the street or anywhere you
happen to meet him and tell him
you were away on a visit; that
you had a friend visiting you;
that you entertained friends; that
you are doing good. If you have
done anything mean of course
keep it to yourself, for there are
others who will tell that.
