Popular Suffrage in the South.


Senator Patterson of Colorado, in
discussing the Philippine Civil
Government Bill, in the United
States Senate last May said it was
monstrous piece of Legislation be-
cause it would not permit more than
5 per cent. of the people in the Is
lands to vote. The Southern Demo-
Gratis endorsed the views of the
Colorado Senator. But what
shocks the Democratic Senators in
the Philippines does not disturb
them at home. South Carolina,
the State of Tillman, and Mississip-
pi, the State Of Money, hold cleo
tiOns year after year and claim to
be among the oldest States in the
Union, but neither of these States
cast enough votes in 1900 to equal
1 per cent. of the population. The
vote OF South Carolina was about
SO per cent. Of the population,
while the total vote Of Mississippi
was equal to 3.S per cent. Of the
population. In South Carolina,
where Tillman boasts that they
have white mans government,
there were, according to the census
of 1900, l3O,375 white males Of
voting age, and the total vote of
the State in that year was only 30, =
Slj, or Il little more than one-third
of the white men OF voting age in
the State, and only one-ffth of the
men of voting age. Could any
thing be more farcial in popular
government than the State Of South
Carolina even as white man S
government? Mississippi is no
better. There are 100, $50 white
males of voting age in that state
and the total vote ia the last pre,i-
drutiul election was 80, 1903. There
were little more than one-third the
white men Of the State voting, aud
less than uur-lfth OF the voters

Why Democrats Are Sad.

The st. Paul Globe, like other
Democratic Organs of the West, is
discouraged by the good crops, and
good prices that make the farmers
prosperous, and unwilling to listen
to the wall of the calamity howler.
The Globe asks:
SIS the rain fall due to Dinglcy
tariff schedules or to New Jersey
trust eXtortions? If the ballot of
the American citizen can be con-
trolled by the rainfall and the crop
yield, where is the boasted intelli-
gence and independence of the Re
public?"
The Globe and all other Demo-
cratic organs should remember
President Cleveland's maxim:
"lt is Il condition and not a theory
which confronts us" The Ameri-
can people are capable of Judging
theories by conditions, and while
the rainfall has brought forth good
crops this year, the same was true
in 1896 and the farmers were not
prosperous or happy. In that last
year of Democratic administration
and low tariff schedules in the
Wilson-Gorman law, the rainfall
was good and the corn crop the
largest in the history Of the country,
either before or since that date, un-
less this years crop shall surpass
it. We produced 2,2S3, ,S75, 165
bushels of corn in 1856 and it sold
at an average price of 21.5 per
bushel at the farm, making the
total farm value of the crop $491,-
OO6, 957. In 1901 the corn crop
was more than $50, 900, 600 bushels
less than in 1896 and the value of
it nearly doubled that OF the Demo-
cratic tariff year. In 1901 the
average price Of corn at the farm
was 6O.5 cents, and the total farm
value 1921, ,555, 76S. The rain
fall IS not the only agency for pros
perity even on the farm.
The wheat crop was much smaller
in 1896 than in 1901 but it did not
bring increased price due to its
scarcity, because there was scare
ity of labor and wages to purchase
wheat bread In 1896 the wheat
crop amounted to 427, ,6S4, 346
bushels and the farm value of the
crop was $50, SOP, ,539. Last year
the wheat crop amounted to 49,
4OO,21S bushels and the farm value
was $467, $50, 1876. The Oat crop
in 1896 amounted to 7O7 ,346, ,4O4
bushels and its farm value was
S132 ,4S5, ,O33. In 1901 the oat
crop amounted to 736, ,SOS, 724
bushels and its farm value was
1898, G5S,777 While the oat crop
as larger by only 30, 600, 600 bushels
last year the value was more than
double that of 1896. These are the
conditions on the farm which are
embarrassing to the calamity howl
ers. They find that Nature and
the Dingley law are cooperating
this year and giving calamity II

AS Others See Us.

Pennsylvania in the recent past
has been subject to so much adverse
comment in other States that it is
interesting to note how the present
situation is regarded. The New
York Sun, in discussing the po-
litical situation in the State has
something to say concerning hap
penings behind the scenes. The
Sun sees in Pattison merely an
ambitious politician whose friends
would seek to enter him for the
Presidential race if by any strange
chance, volcanic upheaval, " the
Sun calls it, he should be elected.
The Sun believes that Pennypacller
Will not look beyond the Office of
Governor and will ''perform its
important duties upon the same
principles that always governed
him in his private and public life
1t is always safe to do what is
right. The views of the Sun con-
crrning the character and motives
Of the two candidates are especially
interesting. They Indicate that in
the Sun office, at least, the nomi-
nation of Judge Pennypacker is
regarded as a fortunate circum-
stance for the Republican party
and for the people Of Pennsylvania.
But the Sun makes other comments
equally interesting. 1t devotes II
little attention to Guffey as the
earnest and disinterested advocate
of reform. 1t says of Gutfey that
"his eagle eye is fixed upon the
Senatorship as eagerly as the eye
Of his political followers is fixed
upon his barrel filled to bursting.
Guffey has no idea that Pattison
will get any nearer to the Cover
norship than Singerly did eight
years ago, when he proclaimed for
the Democratic principles and
policies from the Delaware to Lake
Erie-the louder and longer he
talked the higher rose the majority
of his opponent, until it reached
100000. Guffey and Pattison have
planned to avoid Singerly mistake
in 1894, and instead of rending the
mountains for Democratic princi-
pies they will proclaim against
Republican "imperialisn" and Re
publican policies, and it is current
belief that the more PattisOn talks
on that line the more and more will
Guifey's chances for u seat in the
| United States Senate shrink and
wither like a beautiful and fragrant
flower of dollhouse culture exposed
to the cruel frosts of November. "
That the Sun has sized up the
situation Alright will become more
apparent as the campaignproceeds.

its great future and develop our coun-
try to it's high destiny. Give us good
citizens and our republic Is safe. The
age needs good men, who follow con-
science and believe in God and His
church. Our church has built it's edu-
cational system upon these principles
and thanks be to God, we now see
the system completed in our Catholic
university, which is the outcome of the
courage and foresight of our ecclesias-
teal leaders. Your great archbishop,
as one of its founders and most I'M

to all to value the blessings of an edu-

CHRISTIANITY AND
SOCIAL PROBLEMS
Rev. David Morgan Says the One Will
Solve the Other to the Benefit
of the Race.

christianity and Christianity alone
can solve the great problem of social
economy" said Rev. David Morgan in
his sermon on Christian Socialism
at the Grace Methodist Episcopal
church yesterday morning. "The soon
er this fact is recognized by the world
at large, the sooner the question will
be settled.
"The present conflict is the result of
the reaching effects of Christianity
in the world, and it will be due to this
source that the question will finally be
adjusted, to the satisfaction and bene-
fit of the human race.
Socialism teaches the equal division
of the products of labor. The individ-
ualist, in contradiction to this, believes
that every man is entitled to all he can
get, letting the other fellow look out
for himself. He does not believe in
denying himself the pleasures of this
life that are in his power for the
simple sake of effecting an equal di-
vision with humanity at large.
Christian socialism does not teach
but rather an equality of opportunity
1t is not a teacher of theology, but
rather implies the divine conceptions
of the faith of the Lord and Master,
as exemplified by the life of Jesus
Christ, the Savior of men.
Thus will the question of socialism
and social economy find a solace, and
true eXemplification in the Divine pre-
cepts as every Christian finds them
interpreted in his own Bible"

It is well to remember that the time
is not far distant when there can be
no Wild West, for with the passing
of the present generation will disap-
pear thore red and white men whose
deeds on the prairies will live for
many day in the history Of our coun-
try.
The Indians who are with Buffalo
Bills Wild West are not of the sort
who paint the town red" Possibly
they might If Buffalo Bill didn't keep
pretty tight check rein on them, but
that is matter about which he and
they know best, At all events, red
doesn't seem to awaken much enthu-
siasm in them for purposes of per-
sonal decoration. Only now and then
is a dash of crimson or carmine shown,
but they just revel in peagreen, sky
blue, chromeyellow, flakewhite and 9TH
er fancy colorS. Some paint them
selves all over, while others lay out
patches which they no doubt consider
the improved sections. But they are
fetching part of wonderfully big
and exciting exhibition.
1t is an arduouS task to successfully
transport the personnel and equipment
of so colossal an exhibition as the Wild
West. Three special trains are con-
stantly employed in this service, for
| there are 500 horses to be carried and
| nearly 500 men, besides supplies for
men and animals. Then there is the
enormous clouds of canvas and the
seats for 10000 spectators, with other
impediments not easily recognized or
appreciated by those unfamiliar with
| the exhibition. Enormous kitchens,
canvas stables for the horses, meal
| tents, ETC., must be carried. To feed
| 1000 men for a period Of forty weeks
| is alone a tremendous undertaking,
| for the food must be abundant to sat
| isfy men who daily go through so
much physical exercise. When it is
remembered that the Wild West this
year will journey from the headwaters
| of the Kennebec river to the Pacific
coast, some idea may be gained of
the difficulties to be surmounted and
overcome The Wild West will be
seen in st. Paul on July rs.
