PARKERs CONVINCING LETTER

Judge Parker's letter of accept.
ance adds further to his stature oil
craftsmanship. Contrasted with
the violent declarations Of his siren
uous opponent, Judge Parker's
letter is plea for American liberty
under, and not above, the law. He
proclaims a doctrine OF American
government that never so much
needed to be proclaimed as to-day,
when the influences of oligarchic
Republicanism, of Imperialism,
.militarism and presidential despot-
ism tend to shift our institutions
from their constitutional base.
Constitutionallsm versus Imperi-
alism he rightly takes to be the
great issue OF these times, and his
viewpoint is well expressed in the
words of Webster, which he quotes:
Liberty is only to be preserved by
maintaining constitutional re-
straints and just divisions of polit-
ical powers.
Already, he observes. the Nation
al Government has become central
lied beyond any point contemplated
or imagined by the trainers of the
Constitution, and he notes how tre-
mendously this Capitalization has
added to the power of the Presi-
dent. Judge Parker refrains from
carrying this trend Of thought to
the present and personal fact Of
dangers to be expected when this
centralized power resides in an ex-
ecutive of tempestuous personality
and ungoverned impulses.
His discussion of the tariff must
appeal to intelligent citizenship
as indeed it does appeal to the man.

Americans. He recites accurately

protection and voices the demand

and force. Judge Parker reiterates

his belief in existing laws to curb
the trusts. but, finding these to be
inadequate. he would favor such
further legislation, within constitu-
;onal limitations, as best to pro.
Dte and safeguard the peoples
kterests. AS to reciprocity he
nakes himself perfectly clear.
Jpon the question of self.govern-
meht for the Filipinos he defines
his position Enthusiastically, favoring

Concerning the Panama Canal,

completion, but he says 'the state.
ment that a great public work was
assured to the profit of our people
is not a sufficient answer to the
charge Of violation of national good
faith
AS to the Roosevelt pension or
der, which so fagrantly violated
the Constitution, Judge Parker ac-
cepts Mr.. Roosevelt's challenge and
declares his intention to revoke it,
if elected.
Upon all the issues, including the
minor ones, Judge Parker has re-
vealed statesmanly attitude con-
trasting powerfully with the several
positions OF his opponent, but the
antlthesis is most marked in the:r
discussions of the main issue. Mr..
Roosevelt regards the Constitution
with manner not greatly removed
from a sneer, while he makes low
obeisance to the god of might,
whereas Judge Parker exhibits
profound generation for the docu-
ment upon which our liberties and
greatest welfare rest. Judge Park
er stands for a reign of law-he
speaks the doctrine of free people
under the law and not under the
guidance of executive within and
militarism; it is the true doctrine
of this vast democracy, decreeing
orderly liberty by law and deter
the authority while limiting
the power of the peoples servants.
Judge Parker's letter further en-
phasizes the strong contrast in
volved in the choice between candi-
dates. And it renders the choice
all the more easy for the thinking
man with his country's genuine in
terests close to heart. st. Louis

A paragraph appeared in the
News-Banne last week pointing
rather darkly, we take 1t from the
reading, of it, to the alleged re-
preston of new paper, which
Tramp had reported was one of
the early probabilities. The Ian
guage was very mystifying. There
was some reference to Shylock and
about half adozen people who knew
ofthe scheme, 200 shekeIs and other
hints, which seem totally unlike
Editor Brice's usual open manner
Of expression. The whole thing
is "Greek" to US. We don't know
what he is driving at nor to whom
he refers. The only thing we
know about the starting of a new
paper is what Tramp had in the
News Banner last week. Don't
even know now while writing this
article the individuals who were
calculating on the project, nor who
intended to run it. OF course we
know nothing whatever about the
shekels. We don't believe there is a
merchant or business man in Union
City who would subscribe to such
q fund in order to prevent the
publication Of newspaper. This
Office has never given money or
advice nor have we anything which
we would give for that purpose.
Any man who wants to, if he has
the proper character and means,
can 20 into business in Union City
without a protest. This city has a
good record along that line; in fact
the first hint Of suspicion to the
contrary we ever heard is couched
in that paragraph in last weeks
News. Banner. Mr.. Brice himself
ought to remember that the pro-
prietors Of this paper offered to
step down and out in order that he
might succeed US as editor and
proprietor of The Commercial, and
after we sold him the paper at a
very reasonable price, offered and
did return the money upon his re-
quest to reconsider the trade with
out charging him a cent or without |
even a protest. He ought to re-
member the liberality with which
Union City business men have
patronized his columns and the
citizens subscribed for his paper.
He should think of these things
before jumping at campaign fakes
of this character. The paragraph
is as follows:
Old Shylock got his pound OF flesh
and SO the new paper won't be started
In Union City. There are just about
an half dozen people in the county
that will fully understand this local.
But still all will understand that the
new paper won't be started in Unionl
City and they win have to guess about
Shylock and the 200 shekels. I
