able people will understand the situa
ton: Our correspondent further says
Those Democrats who favor hin
may be mistaken in the man. In thei
zeal for the welfare OF the party the,
may have grasped at Parker as har
mony candidate, simply because he i:
prominent New York Democrat
against whom nothing can be said
without having discovered his opinions
on some important questions which vi.
tally interest the people and which will
be the chief questions at issue in this
campaign.
DO they really know how he stands
on those questions? And do you, Mr..
Editor, recommend him through your
own personal knowledge OF his fitness
as Democratic candidate for the
presidency"
We do not know Judge Parker, ex-
cept through his public acts. We
know that he commenced his political
career disciple OF that great Demo-
crat and profound thinker, Samuel +.
Tllden. We know that he showed great
executive ability as the head OF the ex.
ecutlve committee OF the Democratic
state committee OF New York in 1881.
We know that as chief Judge of per-
haps the ablest court in the United
States he has served with great ability
and signal attention to his duties. We
know from the decisions which he has
rendered that he has regard for the law
and would never override the constitu-
ton nor usurp the duties OF the co-ordi-
nate branches of the government. We
know from his decisions on questions
at issue between capital and labor that
he has gone further than any appellate
Judge in this country to sustain the
rights of labor. We know that he re-
spects the law as the lawmaking power
enacts it, and, knowing that, we know
that he would enforce the laws now on
the statute books against unlawful
combinations. We know from his de-
meanor since he was first prominently
before the people as a candidate for
the nomination to the presidency that
there is none OF the playing to the
galleries" in his makeup; that he
would not continue policy of mixing
up i'll foreign affairs; that he would
not favor going any farther than we
have already gone in search Of the false
glimmer OF imperialism. 1t is true he
does not pose as the particular friend
OF labor or any other class, neither has
he record as trust buster" but he
has record as an able, just, fearless
and dignied Judge.

When a whole Japanese fleet sur
rounded one Russian vessel, which had
come out CALAMITY to give it battle,
there was wild rejoicing over the great
victory, not only i'll Japan, but in Eng
land and here, says the Philadelphia
Catholic Standard and Times. TO
show their appreciation OF this feeling,
the Japanese in Toxic carried English
and American flags along with their
own. The Stars and Stripes ought to
feel highly complimcnted at being al
lowed to fly beside the emblem Of
pagan despotism in the orient. We are
being daily reminded of the dauntless
bravery OF the Japanese, but little is
said OF that splendid example OF hero
ism when the Variag went down fight
ing whole fleet and when her COM
mander ordered the band to play the
Russian national hymn as the gallant
ship was about to sink in the ocean.
The English glory in the grit OF Sir
Richard Grenville, the buccaneer, be-
cause he cried "No surrender when
attacked by superior Spanish forces;
and the French used to get mad with
delight over the myth OF the Vengeur,
which was believed to have been sunk
by her commander in preference to
yielding. But the annals of maritime
war contain no such example of proud
disdain of death as that shown by the
Variag's captain and crew.

Anti-Catholic bigotry in Ireland is
fiendishly ingenious, says the Catholic
Columbian OF Columbus, Ohio. Out
side OF the Irish Catholic churches
there are placed boxes containing
booklets and pamphlets OF the Irish
Catholic Truth society. Some time
ago in Clonmel some evil-minded
proselytizers succeeded in stealthily
placing in the Truth society's boxes,
among the Truth society's publications
tracts containing vile attacks on nuns
and the Blessed Virgin Mary. To fur
ther the success OF their dirty work,
the bigots had these tracts turned out
somewhat like the Catholic Truth So
ciety's publications, and had actually
the audacity to go SO far as to insert
the imprimatur which is to be found
i'll Catholic works! Five OF these
wretched productions were found in
the Catholic Truth socety's box in the
porch OF SIS. Peter and Pauls church,
but it is not known how many OF them
found their way into the hands OF the
people, who might naturally take them
innocently, thinking they were the
usual Catholic booklets. Can it be Sup
posed that those who descended to this
trick actually thought they were serv-
ing the God OF truth and straightfor-
ward dealing?

Archbishop Glennon lectured recent
ly at Philadelphia for the benefit OF the
colorcd people. In the course OF his
remarks he said that "where the
Church rules there is no negro qucs-
ton. In the dozen parishes OF colorcd
Catholics on the banks OF the Missis-
sippi, counting, perhaps, $4,000 souls
there has never been Catholic colored
man lynchcd, because Catholic colored
men do not commit the crimes for
which lynching is supposed to be a
remedy The Catholic Shareholders in
years gone by encouraged their people
to marry and to, establish homes, and
they protected them in their homes,
and, as result, there has come down
to the Catholic negro to today hered-
itary morality in which there is pro-
lection for all"

Joseph w. Folk is campaigner of
wonderful endurance. A St. Louis pa
per says that the circuit attorney up to
last week had made 125 speeches aver
aging ninety minutes long; had visited
forty counties; had covered 1000
square miles of territory; had ridden
1000 on the railways and 800 miles in
stages and carriages; had rested an
average of but seven hours day, and
had addressed about 100000 people.
This is not the first exhibition OF endu-
rance Mr.. Folk has made. When he
ran for circuit attorney he visited every
ward in St. Louis and frequently spoke
four times in an evening.

The coolie system has been estab-
lished under the British government
for the mines of South Africa, says the
Scranton, Pa, Catholic Light The
coolie contracts to be enforced by law
embody the following terms. Ten
hours constitute days work. Sun-
day is to be day OF rest if desired,
but that is optional with the coolies;
but every other day is to be a work
day. The pay is to be twenty cents a
day, with shelter and food supplied.
(No specifications as to quality Of shell
ter or food.) The term of employment
is three years, and during that time
none are allowed to pass beyond the
barriers that surround the mines.
Already 5000 Chinese have been
bound to this slavery by government
whose people claim that Russia is
barbarous, by nation that few gen
erations ago excoriated this county for
maintaining slavery.

pARKER's SUPPORTERS.

Mr.. Thomas O'Connor OF Redwood
county, an esteemed reader OF the
Irish Standard and most loyal DEM
ocrat, questions lis on our support Of
Judge Parker for the Democratic NOM
nation for the presidency. In letter
to this paper, which is frank and free
from frivolous contention, the writer
asks why we are for Parker. He says:
Nov, Democrats, at least in this
vicinity, have great faith in the Irish
Standard as a staunch Democratic pa
per, and they know that that paper
would not recommend candidate un-
less the editor believed him worthy Of
the honor; still they think there ought
to be stronger reasons given for sup
porting him than the fact that some
prominent Democrats favor him.
The Irish Standard favored Judge
Parker before any Of the prominent
Democrats referred to spoke OF Par
ker, and for this we do not claim to be
entitled to any especial foresight. AS
long ago as last December we indi-
Gated our belief that Judge Parker was
the logical candidate. Our reasons
then given are the reasons which are
now turning Democrats all over the
country to the distinguished New York
jurist. We said then, in effect that he
was the logical candidate because he
came from the right state, because he
was popular in that state, because he
was free from the factional quarrels
Of the last ten years and because he
had supported Democratic candidates
at all times. At that time Mr.. Clevc-
land was himself spoken of as cam
didate, and at a later date referred to
Judge Parker as man ito whom he
had once offered the second assistant
postmaster generalship." Senator Cor
man was then perhaps the most promi-
nently mentioned candidate, and was
assiduously nursing boom in his own
behalf. David B. Hill at that time
could not be otherwise regarded than
as an opponent of Judge Parker, for it
was Mr.. Hill who prevented the nomi-
nation Of Judge Parker for the govern
orslip of New York in 1902, and thus
no doubt lost the state to the Demo-
Gratis. Now, it must be plain to every
| one that it was the Hearst movement
which aroused Democrats all over the
country who are for different reasons
opposed to Mr.. Hearst to unite upon
some man whom ordinary Democrats
could support. These Democrats natu-
rally turned to Judge Parker. They
could not support Cleveland, Hill nor
German, and they were opposed to
Hearst. 1t was then that Hill actively
turned his support toward Parker,
Cleveland gave Parker sort of neg
alive Endorsement, and German practi-
cally withdrew from the race, giving
tacit support to Parker. We submit
that it is unfair to condemn Judge Par
ker because certain men were forced to
support him in order to defeat some
one else. Parker is not the choice OF
Cleveland, Hill and German, but he is
the choice of the rank and file OF Dem
ocrats in the doubtful states of the
North, and the prominent Demo
Gratis" referred to are keen enough to
know that fact. We believe that it is
unfortunate for Judge Parker that Ger.
tain Democrats have announced them
selves in his favor, but when we con.
slider how, why and when they an.
nounced their support we think reason

While the enemies of Judge Parker
accomplishing about his silence there
are great many reasonable people
who will remember that silent men
often accomplish more than noisy ones.
General Grant was silent man, so was
Robert E. Lee. The men who are in
trusted with the destinies of two great
powers in the Far East are not doing
much talking.

The Wheat Crop.

It seems to be conceded now that the
wheat crop this year will be something
like a hundred million bushels less than
last years crop. and last years crop was
nearly q hundred million short OF that OF.
1901. II appears also that the crop IN
other parts Of the world Is short. The
crop IN Canada, like that in the United
States, was injured by drought, and Il
is said, that the English crop will be
much below the average, while In Francs
there will be q reduction Of about thirty
three per cent. Of last years yield. In
fact 1t isS reported that nearly all the
European countries have a short wheat
crop, and the same IL more or less true
OF tho argentine Republic, which is
usual y a large producer Of wheat. About
the only exception Is India. But midas
entire crop amounted to only about
35o, 200, 900 bushels. Z; 3s5i
ne Is no wonder, therefore, that there
should have been O material rise In the
price OF wheat. But while the wheat
crop Is small we have d bumper corn
crop. estimated at 2,4oo, 900 900 bushels.
and what We lose in wheat will be more
than compensated for In corn and in the
higher prices Of both cereals. Mother
Earth has been very generous to US this
