There is more Catarrh in this sec

doc tors pronounced 1t a local disease

by constantly failing to cnre with
local TIRE atment, pronounced it in
cureable. Science has proven
Catarrh to be constitutional
disease, and therefore requires con

The Sailor Ashore

Capt. r. P. Hobson, since he
made the faux pas of going out
of the navy into politics, has
rapidly acquired the reputation
of person who says a great
deal without having anything in
particular to say. The following
paragraph from recent political
deliverance of the captain s illus
trates that random volubility
which must be so notifying to
his judicious friends:
On the negro question: think,
there Will be.no difficulty in max
ing it clear to the thoughtful
citizens of the north and west
that the republican party.
through it's executive has violat.
ed two fundamental laws -one
that political dominion should
never be given to the lower of
two races living along side of
each other, and the other that
the higher of two races so
living should live absolutely
separate and avoid soci--
al equality and any tendency to-
ward blood mingling.
On analysing this apopoletic
sentence 1T is found that Capt.
Hobson charges the republican
party with among other things,
violating the law against blood
minglin -miscegenation. Now
what in the world did the captain
mean by that literal balderdash?
Did he know what he meant
when he said it? To say that a
political party has tendency to
miscegenation IS preposterous.
If Capt. Hobson means that there
is great deal to, much misceg-
enation in his section of the
country he is quite right and the
fact is notorious. It was cry
ing scandal in the south in the
plantation days long before the
civil war. 1t is indiscreet in
southerners who are making
such a fuss about "social equal
ity" to call attention to it. But
how does Capt. Hobson manage
to persuade himself that the re-
publican party is in any way
shape or manner responsible for
or related to this "tendency to-
ward blood mingling?"
Equally loose is the captains
talk to the effect that the republi-
can party has given or means to
give political dominion "to the
lower of two races living along
side of each ovher.' No such
thing has been attempted or
thought of. The republican
party certainly means to give
the lower of the two races a
square deal and an open door OF
educational and POLITICAL oppor-
tunity if possible, and to work
for the restoration of civil and
constitutional rights in sections
where such rights have been
fraudulently taken away. But
surely that is upholding ''funda.
mental laws, not violating them.
When Capt. Hobson talks about
fundamental laws he is evidently
thinking of fundamental section
al prejudices, and that is quite
another affair. AS for ''social
equality" that is a matter not of
law or party doctrine, but of
local usage and personal discre-
ton. It obtains less at the north
by many degrees than at the

Ia the fiscal year that has just
closed the excess of income over the
ordinary expenditures was nine mil
lions of dollars. This does not take
account of the fifty millions expended
out of the accumulated surplus for
the purpose of the Isthmian Canal.
1t is an extraordinary prood of the
sound financial condition of the ma
ton that instead of following the u.s.
ual course il such matters and
throwing the burden upon posterity
by an issue of bonds, we were able to
make the payment outright and yet
after it to have in the Treasury a
surplus of one hundred and sixty-one
millions. Moreover, we were able to
pay this fifty millions of dollars out
of hand without causing the slightest
disturbance to business conditions.

In all of this we are more fortu-
nate than our opponents, who now
appeal for confidence, on the ground
which some express ard some seek
to have corfoeutially understood,
that if triumphant they may be
trusted to prove false to every prin-
ciple which in the last eight years
they have laid down as vital, and to
leave undisturbed those very acts OF
the administration because of which
thev ask that the administration
itself be driven from power.
Seemingly their present attitude
as to their past RECORD is that some
of them were mistaken and others
insincere.
