DEMOCRATIC CAMPAIGN MUSIC.

A Democratic mass meeting. such as that at
Madison Square Garden last week, surely sug-
gests strange and puzzling reflections 10 any
one familiar with the outlines Of American his
tory for the last half century To such a one 1t
must have been a pathetic sight to see thou
sands of men and women, presumably Demo
Gratis, keeping time with flags and feet and
even cheering and occasionally singing the
chorus of the grand old patriotic songs of the
Republican party still vibrant with the stirring
music Of the war for the Union. What rehec-
lions. for instance, must arise in Democratic
minds when the band plays to the waving Of
thousands of little banners, that war tune that
has in it the victorious tramp, tramp of Sher-
mans legions marching through Georgia to
the sea, Yet Democrats joined in the ringing
chorus:
Hurrah! Hurrah! we bring the jubilee
Hurrah! Hurrah! the flag that makes you free!
/ So sang the chorus from Atlanta to the sea,
While we were marching through Georgia.
Have words lost their meaning and has sound
obscured sense and the facts of history? How
else can Democratic mass meeting permit
bands TO play such airs when ii is recalled that
the Democratic party opposed the war, opposed
giving freedom TO the slave, and even at pres
ent in one great section of the Union has prac-
tcally disfranchsed the colored voter while
Its candidate for the Presidency dares not say
whether the DOdsIeu party OF lle constitution
will enforce that much praised but little re-
garded document in its entirety? 1t has tears
in plenty for the little brown brother in the
far away Philippines Notwithstanding the fact
that the future of that same little brown
brother" has never looked so bright with prom
Use as since a Republican administration car
red the flag of liberty TO those shores and
planted ii in place of the standard of despotism
As TO the 'black brother" in the Democratic
South, that, Of course is different matter, and
it is an offence against party proprieties even
10 ask its candidate for the Presidency what
he has TO say as to the constitutional rights of
that same black brother
To an impartial observer some such redec
tons as the foregoing are naturally suggested
the band plays the stirring melody of Sber-
mans men while thousands Of Democrats seem
10 be excited to a fine glow Of patriotism by the
strains. But the Inconsistencies do not ston
here. The band next strikes ND THE Rod
White and Blue" and enthusiastic Democrats
join in the old chorus:
The army and navy forever
Three cheers for the red white and blue
And while the Democrats are singing and
waving the little campaign banners the disin
terested observer thinks Of the present Demo
cratic campaign against the army and navy
and wonders why the Democratic managers do
not put The Red, White and Blue" on their
index expurgatorius and forbid good Democrats
10 sing IL. somewhat similar thoughts arise as
the band In the interval before the sneal,ipo,
strikes up "Ihere'u Be Hot Time In the Ola

From The HartIord COurant
Judge Parker's Saturday night attempt to convey
the impression that he had not assailed the per-
sOnal integrity of Theodore Roosevelt less
foolish than disingenuous.
The people now have Theodore Roosevelt's word
for il land Theodore Roosevelts character and
record as tndorsers of hts world that all these
sertions about forced contributions by the trusts
are unqualified and atrociOus falsehoods The
President has told them that Mr.. Cortelyou has
no such knowledge of trust secrets Is i'm
puted 10 him by Judge Parker. and that he was
not selected for the committee craftsmanship until
after that position had been declined by Elihu
Root, Murray Crane and Cornelius y. Bliss This
dlsposes absolutely OF the charge that he put
into the Department of Commerce with the pur-
pose or making him committee chairman. And Mr..
Cortelyou now tells the people that the Roosevelt
campaign fund IS much the smallest in dozen
yettrsahout onehaf the size OF the Grover Glove
land fund Of 1882. OF the Mckinley fund OF 1856
When before in all our political history has the
country seen candidate for the Presidency in so

Between Theodore Roosevelt and Judge Parker
there lies an impossible moral gulf-(The New

True. The moral gulf is impossible between
a straightforward, honest man, who. when he Is
charged 18th practising extortion, squarely and
vigorously and Indignantly faces and denies the
charge, and the cowardly trimmer who makes
the charge. and. when challenged to prove IT,
wines that he never attacked his neighbor, and
pretends that he was all the time talking about
something else, which has received no reply.

moment that he connved his nomination By
permitting various Southern and Western delegates
TO believe that he held free silver views and then
sought by a telegram TO bring the gold standard
