The Centenary of Hamilton's Death.

Alexander Hamilton was killed in a duel with
Aaron Burr, July II, 1904, but notable as was
the work of Hamilton, the centenary of his death
passed almost unnoticed. Practically he was the
father of the present Republican Party. As the
New York Outlook of July 23rd says: 'His sue
cessful advocacy of the assumption of the State
debts by the Federal Government upon the adop-
ton of a Federal Constitution, was a first stem
in the financial control by the central government
which has ended in a National currency; his or
ganlzatlon OF a National bank prepared the way
for the eventual creation of our present National
banking system; and the tariff which he proposed
and which Congress adopted, had for it's avouad
object to create 'one great American SYSTEM
superior to the control of transatlantic force ~
influence, and able to dictate the connection be-
tween the old world and the new world, These
three prlnc1ples-a National currency, a National
banking system, and a National protective tar;f
the Republican Party clearly inherited from
Alexander Hamilton" iion

CURRENT EVENTS: THE DRIFT OF THINGS AS
WE SEE 1T.

Last week was notable chiefly for the Malacca
incident which wrought up all England to a high
degree of anger and bitterness, and for the settle
ment of the meat packers strike which at first
threatened to become very serious. The nomina-
ton of Mr.. Folk as Governor of Missouri was
another notable event-notable as a triumph for
honesty and decency in politics-but this had been
expected for months.

weI-a long farewell-to all the power and glory

his ideas. These men live in the Middle West.

Mr.. Bryan's Future Policy.

Bryan, as Mr.. White says, is still the idol of the
Western Democrats, and for years to come he
will be a power to be reckoned with. Since he
is no longer the official leader of his party, he
has taken an even more advanced position IN
defence of popular rights" as he would say.
Last week he issued an address to his followers in
which he declares for government ownership of
railroads and telegraphs, and urges the renewal
of the fight for the income tax. IT believe the
time has come" he says, "for Democrats to con-
slider a plan for the government ownership and
operation of railroads. The plan usually sug-
gested is for the purchase of these roads by the
Federal Government. This plan, it seems to me,
is more Objectionable than a plan which involves
the ownership and operation of these roads by
the several States. x < x The telegraph lines
do not reach as many people as the railroads do,
and while the abuses of private ownership have
not been so open and notorious, yet there is no
reason why this nation should not do what other
nations are doing in this respect. The Demo
cratic Party has in two campaigns stood for an
income tax. The plank was omitted this year
because the men in control of the party thought
it jeopardized success in the Eastern States. This
objection may have weight when the appeal is
made to a political section and the wealthy men
of that section, but it cannot have weight when
the party goes forth, as it must ultimately do, to
appeal to the Masses"
While at ST. Louis some weeks ago. the writer
met a Nebraska editor who knows Mr.. Bryan well.
and it may be interesting to give here his estimate
of the defeated candidate. "Men in all ranks of
life, I have known" said this editor, 'but among
them all, ministers of the Gospel not excepted, ]
have not known a purer than William J.
Bryan. In fact, his ideals are too high, his sense
of right and wrong too sensitive, for him ever
to make a successful political leader. I have
known him ever since he ran for. Congress here,
and in our campaign work he invariably insists
on doing everything above board, not even favor
ing what I regard as legitimate schemes for de-
ceiving or taking advantage of the enemy. He is
too straight for politics."

Who Will Be National Chairman?

In National politics most attention was given
to speculation as to who would be National Demo
cratic Chairman, but though Taggart, of Indiana,
leads, the matter will probably not be settled
until the National Committee meets to-day. And
much depends on this. Ever since Senator Han
ma, as National Chairman, accumulated his great
campaign fund in 1896 and by a cold commercial
istic system won unexpected, strength for his can
didate, the National Craftsmanship has been re-
garded as a post of the highest possible import
ance. 1t is a matter, too, in which the people are
vitality interested, for it has come to be the GUS
tom for National Chairmen to accept heavy dona-
tions to the campaign fund from the giant trusts
of the country, ana those trusts usually succeed
later in getting the administrator to allow them.
through special privilege of some kind, to rob the
people of a hundred times as much as the amount
given to help the party. AS the New York Even
ing Post 0ndependent) of last week says:
~~-@That entirely too much of the campaignwork
of both parties has been done under cover and
by methods that would not bear the light, is known
of all men. There are hundreds of thousands of
Americans-Republicans in plenty among them
who will always believe that the election of Nc
Kinley was far too much aided by wholesale brib-
cry. There could be no more desirable electoral
reform at this hour than the forcing of the agents
of both parties to do their campaigning in the
open, compelled to publish their accounts, so that
the whole country might know precisely what is
being done for one candidacy or the other. 1t is
admittedly a step in advance to have a man of
Mr.. Cortelyou's character at the helm of one
party. For insisting on this type of man, the
President deserves all credit. AS a matter of fact,
there are no duties of the party chairman which
cannot be performed by any man of business ex-
perience and executive quality. His legitimate
duties-the organizing of party machinery, the
strengthening of its weak parts-are precisely
such as to appeal to the manager of a large bust
ness with large problems to solve"
1t is indeed gratifying, as the Post suggests,
that the Republicans have selected for campaign
manager, not a man of the Hanna type, but a man
whose character leads the people to believe that
the party will not sell itself in advance to the
great financial interests of Wall Street. Mr.. Wal
ter II. Page very correctly says that the greatest
evil in our political life to-day is this corruption
through campaign funds, and it is to be hoped
that the Democratic Party will not hasten to
make friends with the mammon of unrighteous-
ness now that the Republican Party has shown it.
