THEN AND NOW.

Behold, how good and how pleasant
it is for brethren to dwell together in
unity" said the Psalmist, and he goes
on to describe the delights and pleas
ures attending the delightful state of
affairs which comes from such union of
hearts and purposes. And in Luke We
have the beautiful parable of the prodi-
gal son who became tired of roughing It
and returned to the ease and plenty of
his fathers house.
But we have a much later example
of the return of the prodigal and of
brethren dwelling together in unity.
exemplihed by the conduct of Lou
Payn and Theodore Roosevelt. Once
on a time Roosevelt was a Commission
er of Civil Service. Probably he had
no thought of going higher. There had
been no witches to tell him that he
should be Thane of CLAIMS and of Cav
dor and king hereafter" He could
not foresee that his spectacular soldier
ing in Cuba would make him Governor
of New York. He had no premonition
that designing and ambitious politi-
clans would force the Vice Presidency
on him as an easy way of getting rid
of him. No gift of second sight taught
him that the bullet of an assassin
would open the way for him to the
highest position in the government.
All these things were hidden from
him. and because he was not expecting
such advancement he could afford to be
honest. We may admit that he was
honest from conviction. even after he
became Governor. However that may
be. he had no sympathy with dishonest
notifies and turned Payn down good
and hard. Payn was a shrewd politi-
cal manipulation, and had strong pull
with the politicians of the State. But
for all that, Roosevelt would have none
of him and his dirty methods. AS The
Chattanooga Times observes that was
time when Roosevelt would have
scorned to trafic with Lou Payn and
would have Stunned him and his sort
as he would have Stunned pollution.
But that was when other men were US

yErrERsoN,s PICTURE.

It seems to be agreed that there will
be but one picture exhibited to the
delegates when they meet in convention
at st. Louis. That is to be the picture
of Jefferson. The presiding deity of
the Chicago Convention symbolixed by
portrait, was Mark Hanna. There is
an appropriateness in each Of these Sc
lectioEs.
In setting up likeness Of JEFFERSON
and his alone one purpose is accom-
plished at St. Louis; there will be no
images in view for Bryanites or Cleve-
landites to cheer as such. They will
perforce be content with looking at
the features Of the founder of the
Democratic Party. They will not be
invited at the outset to display parti-
san or personal feelings with regard to
any living individual. Even Old Hick-

racy. This is in truth the issue of the
campaign. An adroit and volatile
young man has placed himself at the
head of the plutocratic party and he
promises privately IL he is elected he
will turn instantly upon the plutocrats
and destroy them from the face OF the
earth. This would be the grossest de-
ception ever practiced in American pol
itics. Andrew Johnson, maligned as a

of the common masses energetically to

On the other hand Jefferson presents

THE PLATFORM ON SUFFRAGE.

One clause of the Republican plat
Form favors Congressional action
which shall determine whether by
special discrimination the elective fran
chise in any State has been unconstitu-
tionally limited" and another demands
that representation in Congress and
the electoral college shall be proper
tionately reduced" OF course this is
directed at the South and The Philadel-
phia Record thus refers to it:
What makes this sectional movement
against the Southern States the less
excusable is the consideration that the
question whether any of them are vio-
Eating the constitution in their election
laws is one for the courts. and not for
party majorities in Congress. But the
Republican. platform threatens the
white people of those States with loss
of representation because they refuse

be overwhelmed by fiood Of Ignorance
asss has long naa
but when reading the Republican plat
form with fun round mouth in the
Chicago Convention Senator Lodge, the
Force bill champion. was looking all
the while toward the South. with Its
Democratic majorities in support of
sound. conservative government.
We were not present. but suppose
that IL he could do so Lodge kept his
face towards the South when reading
this part of the platform. He could
hardly have kept his countenaace If
he had looked towards Connecticut,
Vermont, Massachusetts, or some other
States which have suffrage laws and
regulations fully as drastic as any in
the South. If a fair-minded commit
tee of Congress should set TO work TO
investigate the suffrage laws of all the
States 1t would find among the North
ern ones that the regulations are fully
as hard as they are here, the apparent
inequality here arising from the fact
that the negroes at present cannot
comply with the requirements as we'll
as the whites can.
But does any one suppose that a
committee appointed by a partisan Re-
publican Congress would make a fair
and impartial investigation? The idea
is preposterous committee COM
posed of men like Lodge, Crumpacker
and their sort would report
that they find ample reasons
in any Southern State to reduce the
representation, and a partisan Congress
would back up such action, while 1t
would turn it's back on regulations
equally as stringent in States of the
North. Whether, in the event of Re-
Publican success, the next Congress
would be sufficiently partisan to carry
out the demands of the platform may
be doubtful. but that there is doubt is
a good reason why Democrats should
try to prevent it,

The Omen shop In Chicago.

New York Times.
Mr. Frederick w. Job, Secretary of the
Chicago Employers Association, is authori-
~ for the following statement:
The growth of the open shop idea in Chi
cago in the last three months has been very
raptd All the shoe factories, to the best
of my knowledge are now open shops. and
have surrendered their union label All
the brass manufacturers the chandelier
manufacturers, the metal trades. and the
furniture factories have done the same
thing. 1t is coming to be realized that
union label does not help the sale of the
article upon which 1t is placed.
This is instructive and encouraging. II
is not very long since clothing and shoe
manufacturers in Chicago were required
TO nay assessments for the cost OF advertise
ments in the street cars warning the pub
lie not to buy articles which d not carry
the union label They are not doing so
at present, and probably never will again
Various causes have contributed to affect
this change from subjugation to union ty-
ranny to a condition much more toleraoie
OF these the most important is the growth
of the open shop movement and the increas-
ing determination of right minded citizens
that the supremacy of law shall be respect
ed even by those who have deemed them
solves superior to its obligations and i'm
mune to it's penalties. Even more import
ant as a reformatory influence is the dis
covery that employment is less plentiful
than formerly and that the union man ir
many trades must work peacefully with the
union man in the production of goods
which do not bear the union Label or re-
main idle That this movement should
have become conspicuous in Chicago is not
surprising Action and reaction are equal
and it is to be expected that in the city
which labor ruled with a tyranny so ali
solute the revolution against union don't
nation should be carried further than is
elsewhere deemed necessary. Like re-
suits will follow the present strike of tho
garment workers in New York. The open
shop will be established, the union label
will disappear from ready made clothing
as It already has from the best grade OF
hats and those who have led the garment
workers into this monumental folly will
be relocated to their own place II the
conservative leaders who resisted this strike
are able to hold the unions together in de-
feat they will be entitled to great credit
II is more than the membership have the
right to expect.

Council and Car Company.

Look at that" snorted an indignant
business man as a Washington Park
car passed through the street loaded
to its limit with black freight and no
room whatever for white passengers.
IF the City Council, at it's meeting

not find some way to make that car
company provide for white passengers,
every Alderman in the Council should
be remembered the next time he offers
himself as a candidate.
"OffclaIs of the car company have
pleaded for time and have criticised
persons who have complained. but they
are not doing thing in the world TO
remedy an unbearable condition.
The treatment by the Montgomery
Street Railway this afternoon of the
large crowd of white citizens who went
to Riverside was nothing short of out
rageous. The few cars sent to River
side to handle the crowd of white peo-
pie were wholly inadequate, but there
was no inadequacy on the Washington
Park line, where all of the company s
best cars were in use.

ExTRAVAGANT PRAISE.

1t Is singular how presumably sensi-
BILE newspapers will indulge in extrav-
agant hyperbole and undeserved COM
pliments on well known subjects. For
example. The Sacramento Bee declares
that Abraham Lincoln was the great
est man this country ever produced
not excepting even Washington Not
content with that it adds that Grant
was one of the greatest Generals the
world ever saw"
Now what sense is there in such ex-
travagant praise when there is no
foundation for it? Lincoln certainly
possessed some of the attributes OF
greatness, but to call him the greatest
man our country ever produced Is a
travesty on the truth of history and a
Islander on the really great men of the
country. And to rank Grant with
Caesar and Alexander, with Bonaparte
and Wellington, with Lee or Jackson
IA SO absurd as to be almost funny &.
People who know the facts of history
know that the only attributes OF
great general that Grant possessed
were unf1inching courage and bulldog
tenacity of purpose.
This way of exalting dead men to
the topmost pinnacle of greatness is as
senseless and defenseless as it would
be to decry and belittle them. Every
man who has passed away will event
ually find his true place in history, and
that place will not be above all other
American statesmen for Lincoln or on
a level with great military men, an
cient and modern. for Grant. Their ad-
mirers can find plenty of good things to
say about them without classifying his
