The latest explosion in the Senate is too
much like some incidents of the Dreyfus
case to be pleasant. A Senator produces
evidence from the files of the War De-
partment 1t is admitted that such evil
dence exists. Is the War Department
seeking to suppress such papersP Is the
Senator within his rights when he makes
such papers public without question as
to whether their publication would be
inimical to the Interests of the public?"
For the President has the right to refuse
such information as Gin his judgment" it
would be impolitic to give. These are
constitutional rights, and their respectful
consideration is obligatory.
Partisanship is carrying us too far. If
Republican administration is bound to
afford Congress all information not in-
cluded in the constitutional reservation,
Senator has no right to publish such mat
tiers without the consent OF the Executive.
If there is plausibility in the charge that
the secretary is endeavoring to suppress
or deny information and cOndone wrong it
is equally true that the Senate must CON-
fine itself within the limits set by the law
under which it sits.
There is too much partisanship on both
sides, and too little craftsmanship every
where. If the element needed to serve
the highest interests of the nation is not
now in authority, the people should hasten
to recognize it at the earliest possible date.

Origin of "CIeVeIandizing."
Charlotte Observer.

A Lincoln, Neb., dispatch quotes from
a letter written by William ]. Bryan to
Senator Allen, Populist leader, relterating
his firm determination not to accept the
gubernatorial nomination, as follows:
Il have no personal ambition to serve.
There is no Office to which l aspire, l
am not only content to do the work which
| am now doing, but l believe that in this
way | can accomplish more for my State
and for the United States. My candidacy
is not necessary to defeat the reorgan-
lzers While expect to do all that is
within my power to aid those who are de-
termined to prevent the Clevelandizing of
the Democratic party, yet the success of
that effort does not depend upon me nor
upon any influence that may be able to
exert, = upon a multitude of earnest,
honest -uu loyal Democrats who will spare
no pains to protect the party from another
such humiliation and disgrace"
The term "Clevelandizing of the Demo
cratic party" is used in connection with
efforts of certain former leaders to steer
the Democratic party off the shoals of
Populism and float it in the deep water Of
conservatism, for which it's architects laid
the keel. The name "Clevelandizing" is
in honor of one q. Cleveland, of Prince
ton, N. J. He was never politician, but
for some reason, in defiance of the leaders
of their party, the Democrats, on three
occasions, ran him for President, and
twice elected him. Mr.. Bryan, the we'll
known Nebraskan, has since these occur.
ances, run for the same Office twice with
out success, and it is probable that in his
admiration for a man who succeeded
where he failed the Nebraskan is endeav.
oring to thus perpetuate his name by at
taching it to political policy.

TO BE TESTED.

We have thought all the while that the
constitutionality of the new Constitution
would be tested in the courts. To our
mind there has been and is much in the
instrument, and especially in the manner
of making it, which makes it obnoxious to
the Constitution of the United States. as
well as to the fundamental principles I'M
deriving the making of all Constitutions.
At the recent meeting of the State Ex-
ecutive Committee of the Republican party
the committee advised that the new Con-
stitution should be contested in the courts.
We have also been advised that move
ment was started last year by the Negro
industrial and Educational Society to test
the constitutionality Of the, new organic
law. That movement has beens success
full one, both in the way of securing ample
funds and able counsel for the work.
According to statement of the Richmond
News the cOlored people of Virginia have
raised not less than twenty thousand dol
lars to defray the cost Of the necessary
litigation, and have secured the services
of such able counsel as Judge L. L. Lewis,
Captain John S. Wise and ex-senator
Thurston, of Nebraska.
We congratulate the colored citizens of
the State upon their enterprise and cour.
age In this movement to protect their race
from what they believe to be a violation
of their Constitutional rights and the alb
solute destruction of their citizenship
The case from Virginia will force the Su-
preme Court of the United States to pass
upon the Fourteenth and Fifteenth
Amendments to the Federal Constitution
in such way as to leave no doubt in the
future as to the meaning and purpose of
those amendments.
If the new Constitution of Virginia is
taken to the Supreme Court by quo war
ranto or other proceedings, it is to be
hoped that the many acts of usurpation
of the Constitutional Convention will be
brought to the attention Of the court in
such form as to compel that court to
pass fully and intelligently upon them.

Read Il in His Newspaper.

George Schaub, a we'll known German
citizen of New Lebanon, Ohio, is a con-
slant reader of the Dayton Volksznitung.
He knows that this paper aims to adver-
tise only the best in its columns, and when
he saw Chamberlain's Pain Balm adver-
tised therein for lame back, he did not
hesitate in buying bottle of it for his
wife, who for eight weeks had suffered
with the most terrible pains in her back
and could get no relief. He says: "After
using the Pam Balm for a few days my
wife said to me, Il feel as though born
anew and and before using the entire
contents of the bottle the unbearable
pains had entirely vanished and she conld
again take up her household duties" He
is very thankful and hopes that all suf-
fering likewise will hear Of her wonderful
recovery. This valuable liniment is for

Is the West Over Crowded.
Harper's Weekly.

HarPers Weekly.
Horace Greely's advice to the young
man to Ego West" is apparently out Of
date. The Western Labor Union states
that there is no chance in the West for
any young man except the young man
with capital. The Union condemns the
railroad advertising which paints the re-
sources of the West in glowing colors, and
brands such statements as misleading in
character" and criminal in their effect. :"
Many influential papers in the West en-
dorse the statements expressed by the
President of the Labor Union. They all
admit the brilliant opportunities for the
investment of capital In the West, but say
that the poor man has sno chance. The
expression of such views as these seems
unfortunate and uncalled for at this time
of general prosperity. In every commu-
nifty that bas'been "boomed" beyond its
real producing capacity, it is inevitable
that there should be numbers of idle
men. This is also true of every agrl
cultural community at certain seasons
But these conditions are Temporal
ry and right themselves in a
short time. The Western Labor Uuion
states that the resources of the West are
''limitless-to men of capital" Where
there is room for investment capital gen.
orally goes-and where capital goes there
is bound to be room for labor. The West
may be little overcrowded with labor
just at present, but there is nothing to be
alarmed at in this condition, and there is
certainly no sane reason for the hue and
cry that the Western Labor Union has
raised.

A USELESS STRUGGLE.

The action Of the Tazewell Republican,
at their mass. meeting last Tuesday has
caused much surprise, both at home and
abroad. They have always been the most
aggressive in Virginia, and the constant
increase of the Republican majorities in
Tazewell has been attributed to the per.
sistent spirit Of the organization in the
county. 1t is, therefore, not to be won.
dered at that Democrats and Republicans
in other counties should be astonished at
the declarations of the party here in
favor of a policy of inactivity in the APP.
preaching Congressional election. This
position was taken after mature consider
alton, and is not likely to be abandoned,
without some more urgent reason can be
given than is now possible for reconsider
ing the action OF the mass meeting of last
week. Our people have grown tired of
making resOlute struggles to roll up big
Republican majorities in Tazeyell only to
have them overcome by the fraudulent
majorities piled up by the Democracy in
other counties in the district They are
still firmly welded to Republican prnci
pies, but are thoroughly disgusted at the
conduct of Republican Congress in seat
ing w. f. Rhea, who has twice secured
the returns by the assistance of every
fraudulent device made possible under
the Walton election law.
With the same conditions, perhaps
worse, confronting them, and the same
candidate presented by the Democracy,
what possible hope can the Republicans
of the Ninth District have of an honest
return of the vote lat the approaching
Congressional election? The ratification
by Congress of the frauds of 1896 and
1900 will not only e courage the Rheaites
in their repetition but will give fresh inn
pulse to the inventive genius Of the man
who constructed the infamous "Scott
County Ballot" This man is now at the
head of the Der hocratic organization in
the Ninth Distr hct. That is enough to
show the Repuib licans of the district what
they may look for next November.

AN ARMY OF IsHMAELITes.

While the friends of the new Constitu
ton are Boosting of what they call its
many excellent features they should also
give attention to what may prove a very
serious provision, so far as the public well
fare is concerned. The new suffrage law
may be of such nature.

dependent upon the contentment of the

deprives another class of natural or vested
rights the seeds of discomfort are sown in
the hearts of the men who have thus been

of those who have destroyed their citizen

contemplated by its trainers, it will create
