Turner and his kind know this, else they
are without reason. They know, too, that
they cannot by any possibility preach their
doctrines of so-called peaceful revolution
to the end of the new state of nO-govern-
ment without appealing to the dissatis-
fed. These latter are creatures of pas
sion and prejudice. disappointed in the
race for success, victims of personal in
capacity or inordinaee greed. They want
results quickly. They are impatient with
the slow processes of education and
peaceful revolution. Once imbued with
the notion that existing conditions are
contrary to some higher law Of which
they are told with much persuasive
rhetoric, they seek to gain at stroke

gain by degrees of harmless evolution.
The country wants no Turner's, because
from them spring the forces that make

has wisely laid down the broad, simple

The process Of exclusion for the public

A Democratic Beheading Contest.

When Tammany Halls astute leaders
last fall kidnapped the fusonist partys
candidates for controller and president Of
the board of aldermen of the big city
they were acclaimed as masters of political
strategy. The move unquestionably great
ly added to Mr.. McClellan's chances for
election and demoralized the fusionists
But many observers of the ms and outs
of metropolitan politics shook their heads
and promised rough shedding for Tammany
IL the composite ticket thus devised should
be elected. For the kidnapping OF Mr.
Grout for the sake of his prestige in the
canvass was likely to exalt his own ideas

AS soon as Mcclellan was elected Mr.
circuit, who. 1t was already known, had
higher ambitions than the mere retention
of the controllership for two more years,
began to "take notice. Of the state politi-
cal leaders. He had his eye on the NOM
nation for governor, but somehow he re-
ceived no encouragement from Tammany's
leaders. So he turned his attention TO Mr..
HILL and the latest reports are that the
man at Wolfort's Roost is well pleased
with the gubernatorial contour Of the con-
troller. But 1t is long way on from the
nominations and meanwhile there is some
lively fighting to be done, and Mr.. Circuit
suddenly finds himself in the thick of a
fractional struggle of the most bitter kind

General Kuropatkin.

orxiatv ia reported from ST. Peters,
MO CONCERNING Gen. Kuropatkin's plans
The feeling, however, seems TO DC paseu
~, ,,,ara onssswork. Nobody knows what
those plans are. The Russian commahoer
nos e,ivan out nothing Realizing when he
1Aft home the extent of the public anx-
iety. he particularly counseied patience
As. a soldier he could tell even at as
lance that his task was one of great uii-
ficulty. How very difficult 1t Is he mas
probably now a full conception from an
inspection of the field. He is moving
slowly except when pressed by the en-
envy; and when and where he INTENDS TO
take the aggressive, and what force ne
thinks necessary to insure success TO MS
plans are naturally his own secrets
Russian confidence In this man Is very
great. 1t Is probably not too much to say
that Russia today leans upon him as
upon no other man. Should he be de-
feated on ground of his own choosing,
and with a force equal to that of the
enemy, the Russian cause would receive
a staggering If not knock -out blow. No
hope remains on the water. 1t survives
alone on land, and Gen. Kuropatkin Is Its
best expression. If he Is not equal to the
emergency. who is? II he cannot WELD
excalibar, who wearing the Russian uni
form can?
The lieutenant of Skobeleff Is brave
man and fully entitled to his reputation.
But 1t must not be forgotten that 1t has
been more than a quarter of a century
since he last saw war. When he fought
against the Turks he was young and full
Of fire. He was fighting for his spurs as
well as for his country. He is now past
his prime, comes from the routine Of bu-
reaucracy, and must be little rusty.
Moreover, he Is at the disadvantage of try
ing to bring order out Of another mans
chaos. What dispositions he is now max
ing are in part to repair blunders which
have left the Russians depressed in spirits.
Such a situation, however, is one of the
tests of the soldier, and 1t Is easily to be
seen that IL Gen. Kuropatkin meets it; If
he does bring order out of chaos, even
measurably, If he checks the Japanese and
turns the tide. he will be the most power
full subject in the czars dominions. But to
do this he must triumph over commanders
younger than himself, who have seen war
on large scale at much later day than he
has, who know the theater Of present action
much better than he does, and who un-
doubtedly are foemen worthy Of the best
steel In the world.

Mr.. Cortelyou as National Chairman

The proposition that Secretary Cortelyou
be placed at the head of the republican
national committee commends itself strong
ly to all who have come to know the real
strength Of the latest recruit to the Presi-
dents council table. No other selection of
a campaign manager could more distinctly
stand for the Presidents own personal in
terests. Mr.. Roosevelt found Mr.. Cortelyou
in the White House when the death of
President Mckinley summoned the Vice
President to take charge of the national
affairs. In strict accord with his imme-
diately announced policy of adhering to the
Mckinley policies, Mr.. Roosevelt invited
every cabinet minister to retain his port
folio and this invitation included the emf
nently capable personal assistant. who had
served Mr.. Mckinley so ably. In attesta-
ton of his appreciation of Mr.. Cortelyous
capacity for wider sphere of usefulness,
he later named him as the first head of
the new Department of Commerce and La
Dor, an assignment of exceeding difficulty.
calling for the exercise Of a rare degree of
tact and skill His performance in charge
of the new department has amply justified
the Presidents estimate and demonstrated
that Mr.. Cortelyou is man who grows
with his responsibilities.
In the position of campaign manager he
would be regarded by many as somewhat
of q novice in the manipulation of the in
tricate political affairs which are entrusted
to his hands But he has what is perhaps
as good as If not better than wide political
experience In campaigning, remarkable
diplomacy In dealing with men and alb
solute personal integrity. With such prac-
ticed politicians as Mr.. New and Mr.. Bliss
at his side and with the trained political
managers composing the national COM
mittee as his close associates, 1t Is safe to
believe that Mr.. Cortelyou would make no
more mistakes than fall to the lot OF even
the most accomplished leaders, and he
would be sure to manage the campaign with
that quiet energy and that unfailing con-
sideration for others which make for re-
suits and friends.

Judge Parker on Vote Buying.

These sentiments are said to have been
uttered by Judge Parker In December,
1888:
Americans will have to stop this buy
ing Of votes, or their government will be
destroyed. 1t is an evil which is growing
at rapid pace, and its worst feature Is
that the number Of men who desire to sell
their votes is increasing largely A bill to
prevent bribery when debated in the legis-
lature should not be treated as a partisan
measure, for 1t is clear that both political
parties bride voters. Yet. in my opinion.
the leaders of both parties would prevent
bribery IL they could, and are driven to
bribery mainly by the demand Of the voters
that they be paid for their SURFACES. A
large proportion of the votes bought, am
those of men Of their own party faith.
These Hessians demand pay for voting
their own party ticket. Otherwise they
threaten to vote the opposition ticket"
This was but few weeks after the presi-
Dental election in which Grover Cleveland
went down before Benjamin Harrison. 1t
is not unlikely that Judge Parker was
moved to speak by what he had seen In
that campaign. Mr.. Cleveland's interests
had been In the hands Of Calvin 8. Brice
an expert politician, while those of General
Harrison had been carefully and success
fully looked after by M. s. Quay. The con-
test for New York had been extraordinarily
vigorous, and while Mr.. Cleveland had lost
the state, Mr. Hill for governor had car
ried it. Growing out Of this divided result
were many charges Of bad faith, and these
were being uttered with great bitterness
about the time that Judge Parker is re-
ported to have spoken.
But that is old history. Judge Parker's
own. day seems to be approaching, and, ii
I, lob RI
that a practice which he then so severely
and sincerely denounced, and which, no one
can deny, still continues, is not invoked in
his case? The chairman of the New YORK
democratic state committee is his friend,
and If he is nominated at st. Louis the
chairman of the democratic national COM
mittee will be also. VIII Judge Parker's
first step as a candidate be to summon
those two men to the shades of Esopus.
and impress upon them in that quiet re-
treat the importance of looking well to
their campaign expenditures? VIII he adj
jure them to avoid even the appearance Of
evil? Will he cite past history, and par
ticularly his own comment on it, and point
out how careful they must be not to sub
ject his candidacy to any suspicious or
open charges of a too lavish use Of money?
Some people want to hear from Judge
Parker about the silver question, others
about the tariff question, others about the
trust question, and so on. But here Is a
question to which he has given attention,
whose Importance he rates high, and why
should we not have word from him about
1t? Especially as there are already reports
about arrangements for collecting In his
behalf the largest campaign fund ever
heard of in this country. Five million dol
lars is sum which suggests something be-
yond legitimate expenses.

philosophical Anarchists, Barred.

The decision by the Supreme Court that
Turner, the English anarchist, must be
deported from the United States estab-
fishes most wholesome and reassuring
doctrine with regard to the agitators
from other lands who seek admission to
this country This man Turner is a
particularly dangerous reactionary, es-
pecially so because of his very protest
thar he does not favor violence to gain his
ends, but that he Is merely philo-
sophical anarchist. He and his kind are
the mainstays of the cult of government
destruction. Society can much more cas-
lily protect itself against the avowed
red" the bearded, wild-eyed fanatic who
shouts forth his imprecations upon all
forms OF political organization. The
wilder his outbursts. the more violent his
threats, the less difficulty in Identifying
him and measuring his menace. But the
suave, smooth -tongued, plausible preach
or of philosophical" theories, who claims
only TO appeal to reason, who sets up an
Ideal OF no-government society and dep
recates all thought of establishing the doc
trine by actual force. spreads his infiu-
snce far and wide and reaches the infiam-
rnable mind of the dissatisfied in way
that is not possible with the firebrand
who merely amuses.
Turner is a type of the crafty schemers
who deliberately play upon the passions
of the poor and restless. hoping doubtless
that the latent forces OF destruction may
be invoked thus and rend society to clear
away the accumulations of centuries of
law and order to make room for the ideal
state of which they dream. 1t is on its
face an anomaly. this claim that philo-
sophie no-force anarchism is a permits

to punish McCarren to the limit OF ms
powers So McCarren turned to Grout ana
the latter, seeing that he had no chance
with Tammany for future favors, has ac-
cepted the opportunity thus presented 10
do a little maneuvering on his own ac-

comfortable stipend, the first of the NC
Carren victims of the Tammany macnihe.
He has gone further and formally an
nounced that he will take head for mead.
For every McCarren man removed he Will
remove Tammany man and fill his place
with one of McCarrens chosen followers
1t is understood that Mr.. CIRCUITS motive
in this move is largely selfish. He fears
that unchecked Tammany reprisals on NC
Carren will cause the utter collapse OF
the Brooklyn Hill leader in the August
primaries and that the domination OF
Brooklyn affairs by Tammany will make
that borough surely republican. 1nasmucn
as he hopes to stand for the SURFACES OF
the Brooklyn people on the state ticket
he does not desire to see the Brooklyn ma
jority turned to the republican column
Hence these strategic preliminaries which,
1t is generally observed, are likely to cause
a decided anti-Grout sentiment IN TAM
many circles.
So the fight goes on. The decapitation
match between Tammany and Grout VIII
be worth watching.

The Paling Of Parker.
From the New York Mall.

FROM tne new York Mail.
Not even his friends can deny that Judge
Parkers candidacy has faded out percep-
tibly since it was presented to the country
by the Albany convention less than month
ago. Somehow the personality Of the man
has failed to take hold anywhere. The
majority of the delegates to the st. Louis
convention are going there uninstructed.
Hearst, who the Parker following are
agreed SIS impossible" is nevertheless close
on the heels of the Esopus man. and Is able
at least to put up formidable contest in
so-called doubtful states like Indiana,
where 1t was claimed Parker would be
strongest. 1t is clear that the Parker can
didacy has not been able to stand the test
either Of time or of publicity.
