Who'll Speak Softly?

"Speak softly and carry a big
stick and you'll go far" said Mr..
3oosevelt-but how far will we go
{ Mr.. Roosevelt is to do the speak
ng?
Surely he is not a President of
soft speech. Without any disre-
spect it may fairly be said that he
is an international bully.
That was not soft speech when
he made the Pickwickian and alto
gether unnecessary protest to Rus
STA.
They were not soft orders, those
mistaken and superfuous ones which
he gave to the United States battle
ship at Beirut.
1t is not speaking softly when he
utters threats against South Ameri-
can nations which do not respect
themselves or their financial obliga-
tons.
1t is not speaking softly when he
extols the glories of war and stumps
the country with bellicose orations.
1t is not soft speaking when he
adiures soldiers to weight for its
own sake and bemoans the fact that
there wasn't enough of the Spanish
War to go round.
We have the big stick in the
form of powerful and charging
navy and competent army and we
need now soft voice. The fact
that the big stick is carried by the
Commander in Chief with the
strident voice and overbearing man
ner is precisely what makes the
country uneasy.-St. Louis Repub-
lie.

RoosEvKLTlsN and it's results can
be seen every day manifesting them
selves most unhapplly all over the
country from Oyster Bay to the
Gulf. The white people of the
South should be warned and not en-.
couraged this evil spirit among
them. Toying with republicanism or
independentism at this time is play
ing with fire. 1t is dangerous IN
the extreme. No matter what else
Democracy means or what its sins,
it means in this section, white sup
remacy and every vote and every
comfort given the enemies of Demo.
cracy is a dagger thrust at white
supremacy.
1t is high time that the white
people of the South realize this and
get In line. Self seeking politicians
who would lead and lure them away
from the ranks of Democracy which
should be unbroken, are enemies to
their race and section. They are
inviting calamity and choas. They
are inviting conditions more appall'
ing than existed in reconstruction
times and of which the Statesboro,
Ca, affair is only a mile sample.
An end should be put to all this
and the white people should stand
together, Republicans who are
ashamed of their party joining
them.-Commercial Appeal.

Missouri Campaign.

Nevada, Mo-, Aug. 3O.-Today
was a red letter day IN Vernon
county politics. The campaign of
1904 was formally opened under the
most favorable auspices and proved
a great love feast, presided over by
W. J. Bryan.
About 6, 200 persons were present.
Mr.. Bryan made an eloquent speech
and it is the general Impression that
his address will solidly unite the
party and insure full vote this
fall. He discussed national issues
at some length, also State issues.
His remarks were greeted with
enthusiasm and cheering. He caused
the audience to reach the very high
est pitch of enthusiasm, especially
when he said, while discussing
Judge Parker and Roosevelt:
"Give me president who stand
for peace in preference to pres
ident who stands for war;"

Menace To The Constitution.

1t becomes desirable to call at
tention to the fact that the people,
in whom all power resides, have
seen fit, through the medium of the
Constitution, to limit the govern
mental power conferred and to say
to departments created by 1t: ''Thus
far shalt thou 90 and no farther"
To secure the ends sought the peo-
pie have by the Constitution sep
arated and distributed among the
three departments of government
the executive, legislative and
judicial-certain powers, and it is
the duty of those administering
each department so to act as to pre-
serve, rather than to destroy, the
potency of the coordinate branches
of the government, and thus secure
the exercise of all the powers con-
ferred by the people.
Thomas Jefferson, in letter to
William G. Jarvis, touching the per-
petuity of our institutions, written
many years after he had retired to
private life, said; "If the three
powers of our government maintain
their mutual independence of each
other, it may last long, but not SO
if either can assume the authority
of the other" 1t must be confessed
that in the course of our history ex-
ecutives have employed powers not
belonging to them; statutes have
been passed that were expressly for
hidden by the Constitution, and
statutes have been set aside as un-
constitutional when it was difficult
to point out the provisions said to
be offended against in their enact
ment: all this has been done with a
good purpose, no doubt, but in dis
regard, nevertheless, of the fact
that ours is government of laws,
not of men, deriving its "just pow
ers from the consent of the govern
ed" If we would have our govern
ment continue during the ages to
come, for the benefit of those who
shall succeed US, we must ever be
on our guard against the danger of
usurpation of that authority which
resides in the whole people.-From
Judge Alton B. Parker's address of
acceptance-August 10th, 1904.

from politics. He has been a pow
er in the political councils of the
nation for years. Like all men of
strong and positive character, he
has enemies. In his own state,
whatever cause he espoused, how.
ever just, was sufficient to array op'
position. He has been honored
with the governorship of New York,

from that state, besides filling many
other positions of minor Importance

OBITUARY.

On August 9th the angel of
death visited the home of Mr.. and
Mrs. Henry Herman. near Opha,
and claimed for it's victim their
darling babe, Willie Franklin Her
riman. This precious bud was per-
mitted to cheer it's parents only one
month and nineteen days, when God
in his wisdom saw fit to take it to
himself. Dear parents, we know
you miss your little babe, but he
was too pure and sweet for this
world; SO look through tears to that
heavenly city, where your babe has
gone, where there will be no sever.
ing of tender ties. There your lit.
tie one is watching and waiting 10
welcome you home.
A precious from you has gone,
The one you loved so well,
It's crib is vacant in your home,
Which never can be filled.

Not one of the disciples who had been
in intimate daily companionship with
the Master, seen His miracles, heard
His wonderful teachings, observed the
crystal purity of His life, surpassed
Paul in zeal for the gospel. With his
mind at rest concerning the truth of the
gospel and with the great powers OF
his logical and cultured intellect EN-.
ployed in persuading men to be recon
ciled to God through Christ Paul's
zeal made him well nigh irresistible
1t was not zeal without knowledge
but zeal according to intense and set
tied convictions. -Independent.

The victory of Faith.

When we reach heaven we may dis
cover that the richest and deepest and
most profitable experiences we had in
this world were those which were gain
ed in the very roads from which we
shrank back with dread. The bitter
cups we tried to push away contained
the medicines we most needed The
hardest lessons that we learned are
those which teach us the most and best
fit us for service here and glory here
after. 1t is the easiest thing in the
world to obey God when he commands
us to do what we like and to trust
Him when the path is all sunshine.
The real victory of faith is to trust
God in the dark and through the dark.
Let us be assured of this, that if the
lesson and the rod are of His appoint
ing and that His all wise love has en-
gineered the deep tunnels of trial on
the heavenward road He will never
desert us during the discipline The
vital thing for us is not to deny and
desert Him.-Theodore l.. Cuyler, d. ID.

The Boys In Gray.

A question often asked, according to
the United Service, is why the army
cadets at West Point wear gray uni
form, while the uniform of the army
is blue. The origin Of the distinction
dates back to the war Of 1924
when the commissary general Of the
army could not procure the blue cloth
required for General Winfield SCOTS
brigade, and SO they were clad in gray
So distinguished was the conduct OF
that brigade at Lundy's Lane and Chip
pewa that when, after the war Of 1872
q reorganization Of West Point Mill
tary academy was made. out Of compli.
ment to General Scott and his brigade
the uniform of the corps Of cadets was
changed from blue to gray.
