The atmosphere in the New York
Assembly chamber must be conducive
to ''spats" between members. Yester-
day Assemblyman Cook, of Erie, re-
ferring to Assemblyman Cox. of Buff
falo, playfully remarked: The gen
tleman who has spoken in opposi-
ton to this bill is a pin head" The
gentleman who fayors this bill" said
Mr. Cox, referring to Mr. Cook, has
a vacuum where his brains ought to
be-" Then rose Assemblyman Lynch,
and cast oil on the troubled waters
by blandly remarking: Mr.. Speaker,
= gives me great pleasure to find
that for the first occasion since
have served in the Legislature with
them I can agree with both Mr.. Cox
and Mr.. Cook. I agree with what Mr.
Cook said about Mr.. Cox, and l in
dorse what Mr.. Cox said about Mr.
Cook" They are dreadfully polite
those New York asemblymen.

Tim" Campbell is dead. The
news Of his death recalls many anec-
dotes, some true, others probably
apocryphal, told Of him in his life
time. It was he who is said to have
asked (although he always denied
it,: What is the Constitution be-
tween friends?" Whether he actually
said this thing in so many words or
not, he expressed that opinion un-
mistakably on more than one occa-
sion; and after all, is not the man
who disregards the Constitution and
says so. quite as worthy of respect
as he who disregards the COnstitu-
ton and pretends that he does not?

Where Honor Was Reflected.

The New York Sun declares
that "Judge Parker stands without
reserve or qualification for terri
torial retrenchment and a general
dominating of the flag in both
oceans The Sun knows better,
but elects to make its campaign
on falsehoods. Judge Parker
stands for territorial honesty with
out the sham Of "benevolent as
similation' or the hypocrisy Of
"our duty to the Filipinos." He
stands for the real meaning of the
f1ag-honesty, freedom, self-gov-
eminent, no taxation without rep
resentation and no carpetbagism.
There is no dishonor in refusing
to retain stolen goods, and no
"iittle Americanism" in insisting
that the American flag is too
sacred an emblem to float over a
country ruled outside OF the con-
stitution and in direct contradict
ton to the spirit of our free insti-
tutions. The hauling down of our
flag in Cuba and Mexico reflected
vastly more credit upon this great
republic than can ever be reflected
upon it by keeping it flying in the
Philippines in violation of every
principle and tradition upon which
the republic is founded.-Com-
mOner.

THE PRESIDENTIAL CAMPAIGN.

In this Presidential campaign
there is one point which must not
be overlooked by the citizen and
voter. That point is that under
the guidance of President Roose-
welt the country has started on a
world power campaign, beginning
with our Spanish war. AS soon
as the war was over the President
and the War Department urged
the reorganization of the army
ard its Increase to standard OF
100000 men. Following this but
a few months, Congress passed
the Dick Military Bill, which
brought the militia of the various
States more directly under Fede-
raj control. 1t is true that, as the
| Picayune once said, the Constitu-
| ton has always vested power in
the President to levy upon each
State for troops in times of war,
but the States were not governed
by the Federal Constitution in the
organization of these State troops,
nor were they equipped with arms
aud officers by the general gov
eminent, as is now done under
the provisions of the Dick law.
Incidentally here are three points
worth considering: Suppose an
emergency arose and the Prcsi-
dent needed the State troops of
Louisiana, and he commissioned
as officers colored men. His APP
pointment of Crum, his social and
epicurean functions with Booker
T., and his record in the Indianola
postoi1ice tangle would give him
ample consistency for such an
act. Secondly, why should a
militiaman, under the Dick law,
as far as pay is concerned, be less
than a private in the regular army
or navy? Third, why should the
States, in such grave matter as
that Of its fighting men. surrender
its sovereignty to the Federal gov
eminent for Jew guns, ACQUIRE |
ments and dollars, when there is |
a most stubborn intolerance with |
its interference in every other di-
rection?
With this country now inveigled |
in foreign entanglements with a
regular army five times larger |
than it was before the Spanish !
war, with the State militia amen !
a BILE to and governed by National |
rules, and with an i'm
petuous President anxious TO es-
tablish dazzling reputation for !
pugnacity, the reelection of such
a man would prove nothing short |
Of q calamity to the country at
large. The wrestling Of Cuba from
the tyranny of Spain was ncces-
sary for humane reasons and be-
cause the turmoil on the island
was source of expense and an
noyance to US. Beyond this we
ought to have done nothing fur
Their. Prudence and wise counsel
dictate return to the old rule of
non-interference with foreign al
fairs, and for this reason the cleo
ion of Judge Parker seems born
Of necessity.

The Car is doing so poorly
with his war against the japanese
that he has determined to keep
off the toes of other countries in
the mean time. His first idea is
said to have been to mbroil other
nations against him, to temper
the humiliation Of defeat; but the
seizures by the volunteer fleet So
aroused his own subjects. against
the movement that he found it
safer to devote his whole attention
to the business already in hand,
which was then entertaining, but
which has since grown to be alb
sorbing. OF course the "yellow
peril" is still carried as a sidc-liue,
but beginning with little force, it
has become smaller with each
repetition SO that scarcely any
one agrees with the Russians about
it now.

What is Most Encouraging.

What is most encouraging is
the fact that every leading Demo-
crat who visits Esopus-and they
are going there of every character
and former factional affiliation-
is charmed with the Parker per-
sonality as we'll as with his politi-
cal views
Men who hitherto could agree
on nothing find no difficulty in
agreeing on the Democratic can
didate.
No one Of prominence is sulking
in his tent or slurring or express
ing doubt. Men who are antipo-
deal or antithetical find themselves
united.
Such harmo ny, such unanimity
and such enthusiasm are splendid
harbingers of success. If Parker
does not win, the result will belle
the present outlook-Commercial

Dear Sir: 1T costs as much to put
on poor paint as good"-a common
saying and true-it costs much more
to put on poor paint: more gallons.
Poor paint is paint and barytes or
paint and sand or paint and lime or
paint and chalk or paint and benzine
Or paint and water: these are tie usual
cheats: there are others.
1t takes more gallons of paint-and-
a-cheat than of honest paint: and the
cost Of the labor of painting is so
much gallon-one gallon costs as
much as another. for labor.
Thi, is the way to reckon your costs
for this year: but how about next
year?
Paint Devoe. and next year costs
nothing: year after next the same: the
same for several years.
Paint anything else. and your costs
recur according to what YOU paint
with. Some of the mixtures wear one
year: some two: some three.
1t costs twice, three times, four
times, five times, as much to paint
with cheat as to paint with Devoe.
Yours truly

James R. Randall, the distin-
guished literateur and poet, the
admired author of maryland, MY
Maryland" thus writes in the last
number of the Catholic Column
bian:
"Judge Parker's speech accept
ing the Democratic nomination
for the presidency, exhibits him
as the antithesis of Mr.. Roosevelt.
He stands for the ancient faith
and practices of the founders of
the Republic. He believes in the
Constitution and local self-gov-
eminent. He is anti-imperialist.
He is no military lingo and ex-
pansionist. He is a man of peace
with honor. He would not radi-
cally disturb any economic sys-
tenn, but reform abuses for a COM
mon good. He would compel
dangerous trusts to obey the law.
No good trusts would object to
this and bad trusts should be
made to respect authority. Es-
sentially, Judge Parker is a safe
and wise man, which cannot be
said of MIR. Roosevelt. We will
know next November whether a
majority OF the people prefer a
Constitutional Republic or an oil
garchy of wealth and centralism."
