This epi9ram Is now applicable TO
the charge Of Mr.. Parker against the
President.
Parker's Charges.
No truer expression was ever ut
tered than the phrase of President
Roosevelt that ga lie is no more to
be excused in politics than out of
politics. Although this epigram
was uttered many years ago, yet its
application was never more direct
than during the close of this politl-
cal campaign. We believe that four
months ago Judge Parker would
have hesitated, if not scorned, to n
ter direct falsehood about any man
and yet we have the spectacle OF
this man who is standing for the suf-
frages of his fellow citizens, from a
public platform uttering the basest
falsehoods against his President, his
opponent. But the lie which is now
given is no more to- be excused In
the heat Of political campaign than
was q falsehood to be condoned out
side Of the realms Of politics. Mr..
Alton B. Parker sat as a Judge to
deliberately determine upon the mer-
its of a case being argued before
him. We believe that he would nev-
er have given the least attention to
statement of one man publicly ac-
cusing another of blackmail and
basing his accusation only upon the
ground of righteousness and black
grardism, and now as private citi-
zen not only is the good taste OF
Mr.. Parker criticised, but his very
right is questioned and his motive
condemned in accusing the Presi-
dent of the United States of charac-
teris.ics which he knows are not pos
sessed. or Of thoughts which would
not for moment be harbored in the
mind of man with career so hon
orable as that possessed by Theodore
Roosevelt.
There is no doubt that the Judg-
ment of Alton B. Parker has given
way to prejudice, yes, even desper-
alton, which has been born during
association with political tricksters
and demagogues, We cannot believe
that ,le charge Of blackmail and bri.
Der. made against our President by
The | Acratic candidate is an hon
est anu sincere one. We can only
conclude that Mr.. Parker has SIM
ply fallen from his high pedestal In
70 the mire and filth with which he

SENATOR DAVIS AGAINST CAN
DIDATE DAVIS.

In the light Of Vice-Presidential
Candidate Davis's position regarding
the duty on coal, it will be we'll to
call to mind the position which he
took about eleven years ago.
On Tuesday, September 10, 1898,
Senator Davis of West Virginia, APP
peared before the Ways and Means
Committee then engaged IN framing
the Wilson tariff bill. Mr.. Davis APP
peared before that committee for the
purpose of protesting against taking
off the duty on coal. He was asked
by Mr. Reed if giving coal protec-
ton did not establish a privileged
class, and his answer was as follows
IF you can call a million peo-
pie privileged class who produce 1T,
dig it and bring it tt the market,
they are a privileged Glass;
Mr.. Reed then said, ~ want you
to furnish an argument to these peo-
pie who are opposing this on the
ground that it is privileged class
If YOU could point out the fallacy OF
their views / would be obliged tc
von.' Mr.. Davis replied as fol
lows:
s'The class of people who are inter
ested in it-who dig in the mines
perhaps make Is cents dav or pos
siblv ST. or So a dav. If 100000 o.

dience, a FLY owned by Captain S. S.
Brown, the Pittsburg coal king, won
the Kentucky Oaks here in a terrific
drive from Outcome, the fayorite,
which lasted throughout the home
stretch. Audience was a strong second
choice at to and was heavily
played. The field was the best that
ever started in the Oaks. 1t was a
grand race, the six FLIES racing as a
team until they left the back stretch,
when Audience, with Helgesen up, be-
gan TO move up. Booker on Outcome
also began his ride about the same
time, and it was a pretty struggle
from the head of the stretch to the
wire between these two.
