THE DEMOCRATIC VIEW.

Mr.. Edward NJ. Shepard. of New
York, in a speech recently made i'll
Bennington, VT, made answer to the
speech made by AIr. Hay, in which he
maintained that the country's growth
was attributable to Republican rule.
Mr.. Shepard presents in these words
the Democratic view:
From all these conditions and from
these institutiOnS-and in spite of their
faultS-has come-So the Democrats
say-the industrial productivity and
triumph of thn American citizen. After
praise to God for His gifts to us of
land and wa er and ,-limate, it is to
these deep-lying and truly dynamic
causes, and above all to the American
devotion to liberty and law. thai the
Democratic party assigns our splendid
results in agriculture and mining, our
vast treasure houses, our enormous i'll
crease i'll railroad and manufacturing
plants, and all other material as well
as political glory of our land. Demo-
Gratis know, nor would they have any
American forget, that the most stupen-
dous force the worl' has known is
the free, self-goVerning. lawabiding,
self-respecting citizen, regardful of
the rights of other men and therefore
justly insistent upon his own From
the marvellous success of our country
summed up in the census of 1900 and
its tables of comparisons with the re-
suits of other censuses, tie Democrats
draw the conclusion, not hat the gen
eral and broal principles OF the Amer
lean people should be reversed, or their
sacred traditions undone, bu that they
should be continued; that only faults
and exec. tions and Inconsistencies
should be eliminated. They would not
have less respect for law, but more re-
Spect; not less freedom of trade, but
more freedom; not less resi- ect for the
rights of other countries and races,
however inferior to us, but more re-
spect; not more foreign entanglements,
but fewer; not increase, but decrease
in the proportion of military and naval
and general government expenditure
to the ability OF the people,

JUDGE CROSBY FOR PARKER.

Judge Ernest II. Crosby, who sue.
ceeded Theodore Roosevelt in the New
York Assembly and who was subse-
quently appointed as a Republican to
the bench of the International Court
at Cairo, Egypt, has come out for
Judge Parker for President. Judge
Crosby was the first President of the
New York Reform Club. In discuss
ing his support of Judge Parker, he
said:
The economic issues are absolutely
overshadowed this year by the ques-
ton of imperialism and militarism. II
is impossible to devote serious atten-
ton to the great domestic question of
the distribution of wealth while the
public mind is distracted by the fire
works of foreign conquest and such
pretty and expensive toys as q new
navy, and it will be permanently i'm
possible to settle this question in any
other than an aristocratic and oil
garchic way, if we permit the final es-
tablishment of n system of dependen-
cies across the sea inhabited by races
condemned to political inferiority.
Caste under the flag abroad means
caste sooner or later at home"

BALLOTS BETTER THAN STRIKES TO
RAISE WAGES.

But few people understand clearly
the differ ance between moEey wages
and real wages. If they did so they
would not vote as the. do. Money
wages is what is usually received for
a days or weeks work. Real wages
are the goods which this money will
purchase. From this it, follows that
there are two ways of raising wages:
1. BY increasing the amount of money
paid, and, =, by reducing the prices
of goods.
Not only do wage earners try to get
as high money wages as possible. Of
ten becoming members of labor un-
make their money 20 us far as possible
when purchasing goods. Their wives
will go miles to reach stora that sells
goods five per cent. cheaper than near
by stores. They scold tnei- wives if
they pay five cents more than is nee
essary for an article Yet. once in
every two years they go to the polls
majority of them-an1 vote for 4
system that increases the cost of liv-
ing by a. out $1G0 a family per year,
and that compels their wives to pay
this much more for goods. This is per-
fectly inconsistent and Illogical but
it is exactly what they do when they
vote for tariff duties that foster and
protect trusts that charge unnecessar-
lily high prices for their products
prices often thirty or forty per cent.
higher than they charge foreigners for
the same goods.
Workingmen, then, have an opportun-
ity every two years to raise their wages
at least ten per cent. with their votes.
This is far more than they will ever
raise average wages by strikes, though
in individual instances and in certain
industries, wages may be raised fifty
or even 100 per cent through labor
organizations. BY voting to "cut OUT
the protected trusts that charge mon
opoly prices and get an unfair share
of the joint products of labor and cap
ital, actual wages of all workers will
be permanently raised ten per cent.
Not only that, but more goods will be
produced and consumed at the lower
prices that would result Is not this
better than strikes? Think it over.

ga MAN OF WAR;"

(From the Harrisburg rIndependent).
In an open letter to the President
Mr.. Joseph Pulitzer, editor of the New
York World, proves by his own
speeches that Theodore Roosevelt is
not in sympathy with the aims and
purposes of the American people, that
he is a man of war, thirsting for blood,
yearning for conquest and holding i'll
contempt the achievements of art and
science and all the victories of peace.
From the beginning of his conspicuous
public career Mr.. Pulitzer shows that
the burden of the Presidents speeches
has been pleas for strife and eulogies
of the big stick" Such man is not
fit for the office of President of the
United States.
These quotations establish two facts.
One is that Roosevelt is Il man of war
whose insane yearning for conquest
is likely to involve the country in
strife at any moment. The other is
that he is absolutely oblivious of all
the achievements of our Government
and people through the processes of
peace. To his mind there is no honor
except that which involves the crack
ing of skulls and the shedding of
blood. 1t is brutal instinct and bad
nature which develops such a DISPOSE
ton even in a professional soldier, for,
as Mr.. Pulitzer observes, such soldiers
as Washington and Grant prefer peace
to war

SOME VERY PERTINENT QUERIES.

Quoting from letter written by
VIM. B. Hornblower to the College
Mems Parker and Davis Club. in
which he lays great stress upon the
sound. conservative constitutionaliSm
of Judge Parker, the New York Times
asks:
Are these words of truth too sober
ly put to interest and convince the vot-
ers? They are in the tone and spirit
of Judge Parker's speech. There is
no big stick in them; there is no de-
mand for Rails Uli dead;' there is
nothing about snapshot recognitions
of three-day-old instructions as SOW
ereign States; there is neither the roar
of guns nor the smell of saltpetre-not
even sneer at cravens and weaklings.
Are the American voters so constituted
that those who appeal to their minds
and consciences must do so to the ac
compartment of thunderOus cannon
ade? Must there be ginger-and pepper,
decorating figures of speech in every
argument intended to assist them in
making up their minds?
These are serious matters of which
Mr.. Hornblower speaks. of which Mr..
Parker spoke in his address of accept
ance There is no more serious issue
than the Constitution, and the Consti-
tuition is an issue in this campaign.
This is a Government of laws, not of
men. On the Isthmus of Panama and
in Pension Order No IS, President
Theodore Roosevelt has mada it Gov
ernment of me not of laws. If in
these three years when he was Presi-
dent by succession his gleat stride
has taken him so far beyon1 the safe
bounds of the Constitution, if he has
already trodden upon so many of the
fundamental p ciples, whGt might he
be expected 10 do in a four years term
as an elected President?
No voter need be troubled by any
such doubts as to Judge Parker's
course. Upon his firm and unfiinch-
ing loyalt. to law we can rely without
fear or hesitation"
