scHURz FOR PARKER

Carl Sohurz announces that he
will support Parker. His reasons
are given in letter to Judge Park
er in which he says:
Not as a party man, but as an
independent, l feel bound to ex-
press to you my sincere respect.
The principles and opinions you
are known to hold as to the currency
Imperialism, the tariff and the
civil service strongly commend
themselves to men of my way Of
thinking. But if, as an independ-
ent, l was ever doubling for what
candidate my duty commanded ne
u vote, syour action on the terms
of your nomination has completely
solved that doubt. 1t has rendered
to the Republic double service Of
incalculable value No man can
honestly deny that it has demolish-
ed the last preteXt for still treating
as a live issue of party controversy
and that it has thus relieved the
community OF an element
Of peculiarly unhealthy agitation
and dangerous uncertainty. This
is 50 evident that any attempt to
that agitation artihcally
for mere party advantage must be
condemned by every good citizen
as absolutely wicked-indeed, as
little less than criminal.
And, secondly, your manly
declaration that you would accept
he offered nomination for the Presi-
lency only if the offer came in
harmony with your sense of public
iuty has set up before the Ameri-
AN people one Of those noble stan
iards Of moral courage and civic
'irtue Of which our public life is
20 much in need. The higher you
lift that standard the higher you
viii rise in the esteem and confd-
nee of your countryman and the
more surely they will hold you
worthy of their highest trust.
