tent to hold office. The people of the
south have found that popular suffrage
has failed to result in good government
wherever there was present an over
whelming population of ignorant semi
savage black people such as is the char
acter of the plantation hands in the in
terror of the south. The constant in
hux of low class of Europeans who
crowd the slums of our great cities to
the extent of hundreds of thousands
will sooner or later force upon Ameri-
can municipalities the same problem of
a restricted suffrage or a failure of
popular government. However, clear as
these problems may appear to thought
full men. the courage required of politi-
clans to declare them is rare, and it is
for this fact that the speech of Secre-
tary Root and the silent consent of
President Roosevelt is so extraordinary

To Grover Cleveland candidate Tor
the presidency again or isn't he! HIS
attitude lately has made the pubic
uncertain about his purpose or desire IN
this respect. A great many politicians
l,elieye his utterances warrant the con-
clusion that he is receptive candidate.
a great many others of his own party
ara skeptical about the existence of
sentiment in democratic ranks sum
ciently strong to warrant another at
tempt. 1t is this very attitude OF un-
belief in which Mr. Cleveland finds
himself: for in reply to question
directly put to him on this subject ne
declares II can not possibly bring
my mind to the belief that condition
of sentiment exists that makes any ex-
preston from me on this subject OF the
least Importance" This is very
adroit answer. 1t only reveals two
things clearly, the doubt that exists In
his own mind and his unwillingness
to say he is not candldate. ne
we're not candidate. his duty to his
friends and to his party should lead
him to say frankly and clearly that
he is not in the field. This would give
them opportunity to look around for
other available men.
The possibility that opens to Grover
Cleveland is the opportunity that has
come to no other citizen Of the re-
public in occupying the white house
and one can see that this Is the great
thing that can goad an ambition that
otherwise has been surfeited with party
and national honors. Is Grover daz-
zled to blindness by this political

THE WRONG ATTITUDE.

Suppose that Rockefeller, instead OF
pursuing his curt and dictatorial way
of manifesting his opposition and dis
pleasure, toRoosevelt's antitrust meas
ures had written an open letter to
the senators. saying that he desired to
frankly state the reasons why, from his
point of view, as the head of great
corporation, such legislation would be
detrimental to the business interests OF
the nation? How much more power he
might have eSerted, how much more
influence he might have welded! In
doubtedly there are some things to be
said in the interest of business. from
the corporation standpoint. and against
the exercise of too great a power by
federal authority in curbing 1t. and no
one would have been listened to more
attentively than Mr.. Rockefeller, who
represtnes great interests and vast
army of men employed in the Oil in
dustry.
But instead of rising to the great
ness of the opportunity and exercising
q manliness that would be more eff
fective it is stated that his note was
something like this:
1--WE are opposed TO any antitrust
legislation. Our counsel, Mr.. ---.
will see you. 1t must be stopped
John D. ROCKEFELLER"
Isn't this the greatest confession OF
the weakness Of his cause that could be
made? Isn't it tinged thru and thru
with selfishness that thus presents l's
own reason for being curhed? Each OF
the senators who was called upon by
the trust lawyer resented this efor.'
In fact it has had powerful erect
in lust the opposite direction from that
intended by the Standard OIL man. /,

One Of Dawes Achievements.
IOmaha Bee.]

The late Senator Dawes OF Massa-
chusetts counted as one of his greatest
achievements having moved in congress
the first appropriation for the weather
bureau. Certainly its originators had
no adequate idea of the proportions to
which the weather bureau would grow
or the practical work it would accom-
plish. The accuracy and usefulness of
the weather forecast, however, is sure
to be developed much further as time
goes on and It's Importance to be much
more fully realized. In emphasizing the
part he had in its inception, Senator
Dawes only displayed his own far
sightedness.

COURAGE TO SPEAK the TRUTH.

One of the most notable utterances
o. recent times was the calm. careful!
and yet sensational speech delivered by
Secretary Root before the Union
League Club of New York at a dinner
last week. For the secretary Of war,
carrying with him the approval of the
president as a cabinet members public
expressions always do, to stand up be-
fore the nation and declare that labor
unions are restricting individual devel-
opment and that negro suffrage has
been a failure required extraordinary
moral courage. j. Pierpont Morgan's
row with Roosevelt and ROckefeller's
ultimatum to senator's who are weak
ening before the presidents vigorous
prosecution of his anti-trust measures
would Indicate that the president had
trouble enough on his hands in antag-
onizing the billionaires, but challenging
the labor unions, and the traditional
negro policy of the republican party, as
well as antagonizing capitalistic pow
ers is @ bold stroke for man to make
who may be presumed to possess po-
litical ambitions. But Roosevelt is a
statesman first and politician last. He
has the courage always to stand for
what he believes to be right regardless
of consequences. He has done many
things. as chief of New York's police
force, governor of the state and presi-
dent of the United States to prove that
his political independence is as great
as his personal courage. He Is chiefly
distinguished from most of his prede-
cessors by the fact that he never avoids
the danger line for political reasons.
He is such leader as the country
needs in times of class prejudlces and
sectional animosities.
But never has the Roosevelt charac-
ter in politics proved reckless. Secre-
tary Roots utterance on the labor
union ought to be accepted by the best

PEOPLE CAN GET RICH
RED BLOOD.
COME AND LET US TELL YOU
ABOUT vlNOl

When blood is watery and thin, or,
as doctors would say, lacks red blood
corpuscles, it is o sign that much is rad
ically wrong.
We would advise everyone who has
such symptoms to start at once to
take q proper remedy to overcome this
trouble.
That remedy is Vinol, the greatest
and most modern tonic and rebuilder.,
Vinol owes it's virtue to the fact that
It contains in highly concentrated
state the active curative principles ex-
tracted from Gods 1ivers, the same ele-
ments that have made cod-liver oil
famous for wasting diseases.
These medicinal elements are di1.
solved in delicious table wine so that
Vinol is most palatable.
None Of the vile-smelling obnoxious
grease that characterizes cod-liver oil
and frequently makes it an impossible
remedy for those who should take It,
is found in Vinol.
We could relate many instances
where Vinol has done good and re-
stored the roses of health to the pale
cheeks of the sufferer.
The following is q fair sample Of the
way people write In regard to Vinol:
dFor several months / suffered lsssi-
tude and tired all the time. Also :
sinking feeling in my stomach, which
nothing would relieve, and was pale
and weak. As an experiment tried
Vinol and II wrote pages ! could not
tell all it has done for me. "-A11. a.
