People VS.. Politicians.

It is the same old fight the
people against the politicians.
The man who nominated Parker
at St. Louis made much of the
fact that the nomination of Roose-
velt was cut and dried affair, a
foregone conclusion long before
the vote was taken while the
democrats met in convention to
boldly battle for their candidate.
It sounded real pretty. But why
was the nomination of@Roosevelt
a foregone conclusion and why
was there a battle at St. Louis?
Because the people had decreed
the nomination of the one while
they abandoned the choice Of the
other to the fortunes of a politi-
cal fight. Every man from the
Atlantic to the Pacific knows that
the people generally throughout
the country cared not a rap who
was nominated at st. Louis.
Very different was it at Chicago.
The people named the repu blican
candidate for the presidency
months in advance and all the
power Of the politicians, all the
wealth of the money power of the
east could not muster a single
vote in opposition to Theodore
Roosevelt.
The politicians have still a lot
to do with the government of this
country, but the people have
taken over the business of NOM
mating and electing their presi-
dents.

POLITICS


The st. Paul Globe is confident
of democratic success in the
nation and in Minnesota too.
The polite thing to call the Globe
is an optimist.
Condo Hamlin's figures on
Dunn's preconvention strength
were just about right as pub
lished in the Pioneer Press; he
was just a bit too conservative,
that's all. Ifhe becomes chair
man Of the state central commit
tee you will know when he makes
his estimate Of Dunn's ma ority
that it's so.

clared that the democratic candi-
date for congress in the ninth
district this year would come

the democratic situation also pre-.

A living Race.

1t is predicted that within a few gen.
erations the acc of native Hawaiians
will become extinct.
The main causes. as set forth by
Lucien C. Warner. in the Outlook. are
intermarriage and the poor state OF
health of the pure bioods. Their to-
tai number has been reduced from TO-
600 in 1853 to less than 10000 in 1900.
Marriages between the Hawaiians and
other races are quite frequent, and the
number Of part Hawaiians is steadily
increasing. In 1872 the census gave
but 1887 part Hawaiians. In 1854
they had increased to APIS. and in 1900
to 7s4S. The larger proportion Of chill.
dren among the part Hawaiians is in
dictated by the statistics Of school at
tendance, which in 1902 showed 1903
full blooded Hawaiian children to a
total population of 29,7S7, and 2SG9
part Hawaiian children to a popula'
ton of 7S4S. In other words, the pro-
portion of children is twice a. great
among the part FIawaiians as among
those of pure blood.
