LEGIsLATIVE REVIEW.

The editor of The Herald and News
was laid up last week with the grip.
He has been ordered home by the ply
sician with strict instructions not to
leave his room. Therefore he cannot
well give letter from Columbia, but
will try to fill the column with such
matter as may prove interesting to the
readers of The Herald and News.
The Newberry herald and news. (Newberry, S.C.) 1884-1903, 1902-01-28

Did You ever have the grip? Then
you know something about it. This is
our first experience and we sincerely
hope it may be our last. Our doctor
says all we haveto do is to stay in doors
and be careful. That is very hard to
dounless you are too sick to be up, but
we are trying hard to obey the orders
of the physician for we are told that
the grip is very insidious disease.

Those democrats who think per-
sonal grievance is a sufficient basis
for national campaign have curious
ly mistaken the political temperament
of the American people. Who knows
what Schley thinks on any question of
a political character now of vital in
terest to the public? What is his po-
sition on the revenue, or reciprocity,
or tariff reform? What are his ideas
about the money standard, or the
banking system, or expansion, or col
onial policies? How does he stand on
the commercial treaties, the isthmian
canal, or the proposed ship subsidy?
No enc, probably not even himself,
can answer any of these queries, and
vet there are democrats VINO have a
notion that the people may be willing
to lay aside ali consideration of nation
al and international questions and vote
for the brave seaman merely because
of his grievance. The real truth il
that such a grievance, fostered for
campaign purposes, would be sufficient
in itself to defeat any candidate for
the presidency.

MUST WE. TOO. HAVE A PANAMA?

The new converts of the transcon-
tinental railway lobby, which is try
ing to kill every project for an
isthmian canal, urge three points in
favor of the purchase of the Panama
canal:
1. The Panama canal is shorter
than the Nicaragua canal, and there
fore will be of greater advantage to
American commerce.
2. The Panama canal is at sea
level, and therefore will be more ad-
vantageous than any other isthmian
canal with locks and dams.
3. If the Panama Canal company
will sell its property and rights on the
isthmus for $40, 600, 900, ship canal
under American contrci may be built
on that route more satisfactorily than
on the Nicaragua route.
To which the evident replies are:
l.. While the Panama canal would
be shorter than the Nicaragua canal,
the Panama route for shippers would

FULTONS CANDIDATE.

Speaking of the candidacy Of R. c..
Stephenson for republican district
chairman the Rochester Republican
says truthfully and pertinently:
1.-THE republicans of Fulton county
are very anxi JUS TO have some recog-
milton and representation in this con-
gressional district and the republican
takes great pleasure in presenting
Mr.. Stephenson as being a stalwart
follower of the immortal Lincoln and
every way capable and worthy Of the
position he has expressed a willing
ness to accept. Mr.. Stephenson of the
firm of Holman & Stephenson, at
torneys at law. is one of the we'll
known citizens of Rochester and Full
ton county, and because of his bust
ness relations his acquaintance ex-
tends throughout Indiana and some
what of the adjoining states. Social
ly his presence is everywhere accept
able, politically he has at all times
stood in the front rank of republican
party work, and possessing the great
est integrity, energy and sagacity, in
addition to his financial ability, he is
eminently qualified to do justice ard
honor TO the craftsmanship and to the
party.
Notwithstanding Fulton county
is the south county Of the district,
and heretofore disposed to be demo.
cratic, our working republicans are
impressed with the conclusion that
we deserve some recognition worthy Of
our services, and with the proper en-.
couragement we have the assurance

be longer. The Nicaragua route be-
tween New York and San Francisco or
between New Orleans and San
Francisco or between New Orleans
and Manila is two days shorter than
the Panama route.
=. The statement that the Pana-
ma canal is partially constructed at
the sea level is false. The canal was
planned and advertised as sea-leyel
canal, but in 1887 it changed to a
lock canal and the dams contemplated
by the engineers are more difficult of
construction than any on the Nicara-
qua canal.
3. Ii the Panama Canal company
would sell its property and rights on
the isthmus for 81, 900. to say nothing
of $40, 900, 900, it would not be pos
Sible for the United State TO construct
on that route an American canal un-
der American control.
If the United States should purchase
all the rights. and property of the
Panama Canal company, our engineers
would still have eight years work be-
fore them, providing they could solve
several problems now regarued as un-
solvable, and meantime would not
have a single concession giving this
country control of the canal.
However, the convincing argument
against the Panama project just now
is that it is advocated most furiously
by the transcontinental railway lobby.
This lobby is against any canal.
Therefore, when it advocates the
Panama canal it gives the strongest
proof that it knows the Panama canal
is not possible.
Yet this lobby finds newspapers to
fool the people for it-congressmen to
shout buncombe for it. Shame on
such perfidy. Must America, too,
have its Panama scandaf?-Chicago

The bill TO provide revenue for the
Philippine islands, which the demo-
Gratis in congress are preparing to op-
pose, was framed as an emergency
measure TO maintain present cOndi-
tionS there until law for the perma-
nent government of the islands can be
enacted. The democrats will oppose
the temporary measure without offer
ing any substitute for it, and when
the permanent government bill is re-
ported they will oppose that. Demo-
cratic craftsmanship consists in OPP
posing all constructive and progress
i've measures without offering any,
thing in lieu of them.

Babcockism. which deludeS few
republicans and delights all democrats,
is as far from true republicanism as
would be the doctrine that the pres
ent tariff is complete, perfect and I'M
alterable, which nobody believes. The
tariff is flexible instrument, intend
ed to be adjusted to changing condi-
tions as the flood of business rolls on.
Republicans believe in looking after
American industry in making such al
terations, and therein they differ
with the democrats.

At reunion of the fourth district
democracy held at Columbus Thurs
day night Senator Joseph III. Shea
sprung tremendous surprise ON the
banGueters in his response to a toast.
He denounced in strong terms the
foreign policy announced by Bryan in
the last campaign and the boldness of it
made his hearers gasp, especially in
view Of the fact that Senator Shea
is a candidate for congress. Referring
to the fact that Bryan himself hasten
ed to Washington to urge the ratifi-
cation of the treaty Of Paris, by vir-
tue of which the Philippine islands
came to us, and then in his campaign
speeches denounced that very treaty,
the speaker said that it not only weak
ened the party in that campaign but
has handicapped it from that day I'M
til the present hour. SIN the last is
sue of the Commoner, F." said Mr.. Shea,
''Mr. Bryan Endorses the eplgrammat-
ic expression, The Philippines were
acquired in folly and should be dispos-
ed of in wisdom If it was folly to
acquire them, it was folly to ratify
the treaty which brought them to us. +"
After a moments silence Senator
Shea's bold utterance was applauded
to the echo and he was complimented
literally for his nerve in saying what
they all knew to be true.

HEARD AT THE LOVE FEAST.

Among the commendable Senti-
ments expressed by the prominent
speakers at the republican love feast
at Indianapolis none is more excellent
than the following uttered by Sena-
tor Beveridge:
Organization is invaluable, even in
its narrow sense, but ideas and ideals
alone make organization vital. Prin-
cipleS are the life blood without which
the organization, however perfect, Is
lifeless. The people care nothing for
the spoils of offi:e. The people de-
spise the feuds of faction. But the
people care everything for the pros
perity of the country; the people care
everything for the honor of the ma
ton; the people care everything for
the power and glory of the republic
over all the earth and on all the seas.
Honesty of purpose is properly the
first great consideration of political
party, and organization to make that
purpose effective ranks next. The
republican party has glorious past:
whether or not it is to have glorious
future depends more upon honest policy
and thorough organization than upon
anything else. The selection Of COM
mitteemen and delegates in precinct,
county and district is now a matter OF
paramount importance and no repub-
lican having faith in his party can af.
ford to neglect the duty of partlci-
pating in that work.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1902-01-09

Sans financial system is gloriously re-
freshing when compared with the
situation which compelled Cleveland
to force the sale of government bonds
to foreign purchasers at high inter-
est rate for the purpose of paying the
government current expenses. This
is worth rejecting upon. 1t may also
be profitably remembered that In
diana is rapidly reducing the state
debt instead of increasing it. Re-
publican management never hurts a
public treasury.
The Plymouth tribune. (Plymouth, Ind.) 1901-1911, 1902-01-09

There appears to be some misappre-
hension concerning the attitude Of
this government toward the Venezula-
Germany imbroglio: we frequently read
that this country has consented that
Germany may send warships into Ven-
eZuelan waters to enforce the collection
of debt. Nothing could be further
from the truth. Such consent has
not been given or asked. The affair
is one between two foreign countries
and is none of our business any more
than any other international dispute
not concerning us would be. Ger
many may enforce her claim but must
stay clear of the Monroe doctrine.

BE FAIR And DECENT
Carroll D. Wright's Condensed Rec
ipe for the Settlement of La
Dor Disputes. :
It Applies to Parties to Contest-Mr.
Wright on His Way to
Minneapolis.

Carroll, D. Wright, United States labor
commissioner, interviewed in Chicago on
his way to this city, where he will take
part In the discussions Of the labor ques-
ton at the employer and employee con-
vention, declared he had nothing to say
OF thee oal strike situation beyond what
was contained in his report made to the
government some time ago.
AT the beginning of the strike I pre-
dicted that It would last five months" he
said, and according to my forecast it has
still a month to run. It looks very much
as though my prediction would come true.
No one can say how soon the strike will
be settled"
Turning to other questions, Mr.. Wright
said:
II do not think that arbitration is the
panacea for labor troubles that some per-
sons seem to consider it. That is why I
did not recommend it in my recent report
on the coal strike.
1.-THE practical, and, to my way of
thinking, the proper way to settle labor
troubles is for both sides to be fair and
decent and settle their differences them
selves. They ought to be able to do this
better, and certainly can do it with far
more mutual satisfaction than by having
outsiders step in and settle their troubles.
II know that the president was and is
exceedingly anxious for the strike to be
settled. But I know also that his posi-
ton was and is most difficult because If
he stepped in it would be charged that he
was using the power and influence Of his
official position in favor Of one side or
the other. It Is for this reason that he
has not done more than he has" :. p
