CANDIDACY OF MR.. HEARST.
Made Possible Only by the Demoral-
ization Resulting from
Bryanism.

Democrats will not fully understand
the preposterous candidacy of William
II. Hearst unless they view it as a natur-
al and inevitable descent from Bryan
ism. Political as well as other forms of
decadence present many curious fea-
lures, says the Democratic Chicago
Chronicle
II there had been no Organism in the
democratic party Mr.. Hearst would have
been a candidate for the presidency. if
at all, like any other freakish advertiser
bent on self-exploitation.. He never
would have thought of securing the dem
ocratic nomination. He would have en-
tered the class in which the Immortal
J. NJ Belva lockwood, DR.. Mary Wal
ker, George Francis Train and Victoria
Woodruff figured in their day, and would
have been content.
There is nothing new in person gro
tesquely unfit aspiring to the chief mag
istracy. Many cranks and many
egotists have done it. The only thing
about the Hearst candidacy that shocks
people is the fact that he has the audaci-
ty to pretend that he is seeking the nom
ination of great party.
So long as the strange and flighty crea-
lures who appear before the public oc-
casionally in the role of presidential as
pirants confine their antics to parties
of their own, mostly imaginary. or to in
consequential organizations which are
rarely heard of at election time. no atten-
tion is paid to them. They are regard
ed as fit subjects for jibe and ridicule
But when by the use Of money they
carry the joke or the infatuation into
the convention of one of the great
parties there is feeling like that which
prevails in Washington when a crank
is taken with arms in his hands at the
threshold of the executive mansion
Organism opened the way FOR the
Hearst candidacy. There need be no
doubt about that. When the democratic
party turned its back upon its own lead
ers and principles and took up With the
zealot from Nebraska, attempting in a
frenzy to make itself and the world be-
lieve that it had discSyered prodigy.
il made a most emphatic descent from
lts FORMER estate, but it was a descent
which still left some depths unsounded.
Mr.. Bryan was one of the lowest types
that had yet appeared in party leader
ship, but there were some things to COM
mend him.
The Hearst candidacy, made possible
only by reason of the decentralization re-
sultihg from Bryanism, shows that the
bottom has been reached. Nothing else
that may be in store for the democratic
party can be worse than this. The
mere fact that party organization. party
spirit and party leadership anywhere
have fallen so low as to admit of this
shameful movement under cover of the
democratic name proves that political
disgrace carries long-continuing pen
altieS.

vOne of the democratic papers sug-
gests that the press of the country
cease saying anything about Mr.. Brvan
and thus kill him by ignoring him
This suggestion may work with th1
democratic papers, but the republican
press may be relied upon to keep Will
liam J. before the people. 1t cannot
bear to see man treated so cavalierly.

STRICT CENSORSHIP

London, March 31.-The Daily Tele-
graph says the japanese authorities
have refused spondents the use
of field telegraph lines and that all
dispatches must be sent to Toxic by
mail. The paper says that there is no
sign that any foreigners will be per-
mitted to go to the front. The Tcle-
graph in an editorial on this censor
ship, suggests that Japan has some
new move to conceal, possibly the
re-embarkation of portion of her
forces already in Korea for some
other point in the theatre of war. and
is anxious to guard against leakage
through correspondents.
Che Foo, March 3I.-The captain,
an oiler and one passenger of the
Japanese coasting steamer Hanyei
arrived at Teng Chow yesterday and
reported that the Ranyei had been
fired on and sunk by the Russian
fleet near the Miatoi Islands, on
March 81. They alsu reported that
the remainder of the crew and pas
sengers, Chinese and Japanese. II in
number. had been taken prisoners by
the Russians.

Should suffer in the face of evidence
like this:
Mrs. Almira A. Jackson, of East Frons
St., Traverse City, Mich, says: "For
twenty years never knew what it was
to have good health. Every physician
consulted said l had liver trouble bus
their medicines did me no good. Just
before l began using Doan's Kidney
Pills L was almost paralyzed. l could
hardly stand on my feet because of the
numbness and lack of circulation. Had
knife been thrust into my kidneys the
pain could not have been more intense.
My sleep was disturbed by visions Of

tions were annoyingly irregular ard
was tortured with thirst and always,
bloated. used seven boxes of Doau's.

Education of Children.

The tangle in Count Leo Tolstoi's
mind is illustrated by the letter from his
pen which the New York Independent
prints in recent issue. We trust that
none will try to educate a child after
Tolstoi's rules. He would not force
anything on children" he would not
force a child to study subjects that do
not interest it," he would not teach
children religious conceptions about
which they 90 not ask" and, most sur
prising of all, in the religious education
of children he would give them equally
the doctrinal literature of Christians,
Hebrews, Buddhists, Brahminists ard
Confucianists On the contrary, children
should be required to learn much they
do not want to learn, just as they must
be required to do work they do not like.
And the parents ought to teach them in
religion first what they believe to be
:rue, and let the error wait till they have
passed the receptive age and have
reached the age for independent
thought.

HONORED THEIR HEROES

Odessa, April 2.-Odessa yesterday
enthusiastically received the sur
vivors of the gunboat Korietz and
the cruiser Variag, destroyed by the
Japanese in the battle of Chemulpo.
The steamer Malaga, with the sur
vivors on board, arrived here in the
afternoon. \ parade was formed
headed by the clergy and the sur
vivors, surrounded by guard of
honor. The streets were decorated
with flags and bunting. An immense
crowd thronged the pavement, and
the enthusiasm reached such a pitch
that the people brushed aside the
guard of honor and raised some of
the survivors on their shoulders,
while others were seized and kissed.

Our Foreign Born Citizens.

For the 50 years beginH-ng with 1921
and ending with 1903, the number OF
immigrants coming to this country
made a total of 21,2657 1928 persons.
Among these were people of almost
every nationality known. OF this grand
total Europe alone furnished SO per
cent. The western hemisphere fur
nished As per cent, while China and
other countries contributed 2.5 per cent.
To what extent European civilization
has figured in the building up of this
country can be understood in a measure
when the fact is comprehended that dur
ing the past 50 years over nine-tenths
of foreign immigration haS come from
European shores. During the 72 years
beginning with 1928 and ending with
the year 1902, says the Chicago Sum- the
total immigration to this country has
been 20,40S,677 persons. OF these 49,
4S1,S41. or over 80 per cent, came from
Europe, From various points in the
western hemisphere there W ere ,26S ,069
immigrants, or over 62 per cent; from
China and other Asiatic countries there
came 421,000, or little over two per
cent. OF European countries Germany
has supplied us with the greatest num-
Der of immigrants since 1928 making
total of 5098, ,005 individuals, or prac-
tically 25 per cent. of the entire Euro
pean emigration. Ireland stands second
with 1914 ,269, or over 19 per cent. OF
the 1,26S, ,069. or over six per cent, char
acterized as coming from the western
hemisphere, 1850 682, or over five per
cent, came into this country from Brit
ish North America. China alone has
contributed 317,929, or one and one-half
per cent. From all other countries not
provided for in the above classifications
there have been 2S4SS5 immigrants, or
a little over IL per cent. 1t is an inter-
esting fact that of the 10, 1856, ,6G4 persons
of foreign birth in this country in 1900,
S92t,270, or sc per cent, were located
north of the Ohio river and east of the
Rocky mountains. Eight per cent. were
in south Atlantic states and in the south
ern divisions. Some appreciation for
the above figures can be secured from
the vastness of the immigration into
this country. Associated with this is
the expediency of such laws that will
Gull this vast annual immigration until
we are securing only the most desirable
classes. The vastly increasing popula-
ton in this country is sure indication
that we are going to be sooner or later
forced to take some radical precaution-
ary measures. We need the foreign-bred
men and women who come here with the
determination of making their own
livelihoods, but we have no use for those
who will increase the crush in our pub
lie institutions

Makes Cleveland Smile.
This is taken from an interview with
Mr.. Cleveland at Princeton:


when his attention was called to the
fact that Robert b. Roosevelt, an uncle of
President Roosevelt is reported to have
said that Mr.. Cleveland should be nomi-
mated for pre- sident by the democratic party
the eX-presldent smiled and said:
We'll, am not surprised at that; there
would seem to be a reason for it, as Mr.
Roosevelt belongs to the old-time democ-
raCy.'
So we see that the sage of Princeton
is not angry because his letter to ST.
Clair McKelway was not taken serious
ly. Here he is positively smiling at
his nomination for the presidency by
Robert b. Roosevelt. Mr.. Cleveland
rarely smiles these days, ard a smile
by him means much. We may be sure.
indeed, that if Mr.. Roosevelt were to
travel down to Princeton for the pur-
pose of talking politics and seconding
his own motion about what should be
done at st. Louis his reception would
be hearty in the extreme. The presi-
dents uncle is not only an old-time
democrat, but a good judge of human
nature. AS a good many other people
did. he read that McKelway letter be-
tween the Washington Star.

The Japs Winning.

The Russians have met with two
serious accidents at Port Arthur by
the blowing up first of the torpedo
transport Yenesei with 81 men, and
a few days later precisely similar
accident by which the cruiser Boya-
rim with 1877 men was lost. Ii is sup
posed these vessels were planting
mines to defend Port Arthur, and
that the explosions were accidental.
A heavy movement of Japanese
troops into Corea is taking place.
This is SO far uDopposed, as the Rus
sian forces are not thought to be
south of the Yalu river. Reports of
the presence of japanese land forces
in the vicinity of Port Arthur are so
far unconfrmed. There are said to
be between 100, 600 and 200,0 Rus
sian soldiers in Manchuria. A clash
between these land forces is expected
at any time.
The japanese successes are re-
ceived with great enthusiasm at
Toxic, the city being bedecked with
flags and bunting in honor of A dmiral
Togo's victory at Port Arthur and
Admiral Uriu's triumph at Chemulpo.
In Russia, there is determination
to avenge the defeats, but the war
does not seem to be popular with the
masses.
Secretary Hay has met with success
in his effort to secure joint agree
ment between all the leading powers,
both the belligerents and neutrals, to
confine the war to limited field and
to respect the neutrality of China, as
we'll as it's entity when the war is
over. All the neutrals have given
rheir assent, Japan is willing if Russia
will agree, and Russia replies that the
scheme appears practical.
