PARKER STRENGTH GROWING.

Some time ago The Irish Standard
vertrred the opinion that Judge Parker
ought to be and would be the next
Democratic candidate for president
Since that time much has been written
and said about candidates by both par
ties. At the time we wrote. President
Roosevelt was the only Republican
spoken of, but since that time power
full influences have been at work to
accomplish Rooscvelts defeat for re-
nomination. Senator Hanna, to whom
these influences naturally looked for
leadership, has passed away and again
Roosevelt, the lucky one" has clear
road Among Democrats little real
work has since been done, but great
deal OF talk has been INDUCED in. The
trouble with the Democratic situation
is too much talk. Judge Parker of all
the Democrats prominently mentioned,
has preserved digni6ed silence By
SO doing he has attracted to himself
more and more the thinking men OF his
party and those who are unsclfishly
working for Democratic success.
Without being conscious OF any pride
OF opinion because OF our previously
expressed preference for Judge
Parker we say that, considered from
every standpoint of principle and pol
icy he appears to be the logical candi-
date Tor the party to nominate. Al
though both Mr., Cleveland and Mr..
Bryan have each stated they did not
want the nomination and would not ac-
cept it, yet by constantly appearing in
the public print in denunciation of one
another they are doing more towards
making Republican success possible
than all lhc machinery OF that party,
The great majority OF Democrats have
tired OF the chickering's OF the last few
years. Mr.. Cleveland. who has re-
ccivcd greater honors at the hands OF
his party than any Democrat since
Jackson should give to his party the
benefit of his valuable counsel without
continually calling attention to alleged
|, sins OF the past. Mr.. Bryan should re-
a'ize that the Democratic party in con-
vci,tion should be allowed to form the
next platform and nominate the next
ticket No temporary issue is greater
than the party. The Democratic party
was not formed as single issuc party
1t existed before there was any CUES
ton about the money ratio and was
founded upon principles broader ant
deeper than any mere economic prii,-
cipe. There ought to be room on q
real Democratic platform for all Dem
ocrats. Aside from these two men
who are the leaders of the opposing
factions OF the party, there is at least
one-Congressman Hcarst-who is al
avowed and active candidate We dc
not believe that he will control enough
delegates to make his candidacy for
midable. Senator German, because O
his past record on the tariff and his
general reputation as a politician anc
the fact that he comes from the South
is not strong in the doubtful Eastern
states. Ex-Secretary Olney is an able
man and would make great president
but he is old and his intimate connec
ton with Cleveland would gain TO,
him the ennlity of the more radica
/ Bryanmen. After all is said and done

At the late Los Angeles convention
an Episcopal minister, representing
New Mexico, went out of his way to
calumniate the Catholic people of that
territory. Judge Baker, of Omaha, as
sociate justice OF the supreme court OF
New Mexico, had this to say short
time since: "When went back to my
old home the last time, some of my
friends tried to make the people of
New Mexico ridiculous in my eyes by
calling them .greasers.' 1 returned
promptly that would sooner have any
case at law tried by jury of these
same Americans Of Mexican descent
or Spanish blood than the sort of jury
! had found in Omaha. That expresses
my opinion Of them precisely. They
are good sons, husbands and fathers;

THE HAGUE FIASCO.

1t is apparent that the Hague Tribu-
nal is farce and was never intended
by any of the nations as final APP
peal in matters of Importance. Each
nation looks upon the Hague Tribunal
as a good thing for the other fellow.
Nations have not arrived at that stage
when then can allow their disputes to
be settled on principles of justice and
equity. Individuals long ago, for the
most part, learned the wisdom of put
ting aside. their deadly weapons,
stopped avenging private wrongs, es-
tablished courts OF justice where
wrongs were to be righted and rights
enforced according to a prescribed
method. In so far as individuals have
abided by the courts of justice which
they thus established, they have ceased
to be barbarians and outlaws, but in
so far as they resort to physical force
or threatened physical force to enforce
demands, right or wrong, to that ex-
tent they are "sandbaggers,' 'hold-up
artists and outlaws in general For
tunately the great majority of individ-
uals willingly submit their differences
to courts OF justice, But individuals as
collectivism have not learned that les
son. Nations, when they establish ar
bitration boards and tribunals, do so
with the mental reservation that they
will not abide by unfavorable decisions
They establish Hague Tribunal and
Immediately set to work harder than
ever to build navies and equip armies.
All this they do in the interest Of
peace. When a dispute arises between
nations no reference is made to the
arbitration board which they have
helped to establish. The first act is
to inspect their arsenals and put their
house in readiness for attack from the
other side. This was the way CEN
turtles ago individuals protected them
selves and their families against their
neighbors. They learned as the CELL
turtles went by that better protection
could be had by banding together in
tribes and later still into nations and
still later into empires. War to-day
is but the evidence of the brute passion
in individual man. As individuals we
suppress Our baser passions and re-
frain from killing our individual enc
nv h,t as n collection of individuals
in what we call nation we allow our
brute passion full sway. We neither
desire nor try to avert war which is
carried on for robbery, revenge or the
mere satiatine OF a morbid passion OF
destructiveness. In the first case the
war is called one i'll the interest OF civ
ilization and Christianity, and in the
last instance it is said to be for ma
tional honor and glory. Nations are
behind the individual in the laying
aside OF the instrumentalites Of print
tive man. The Haguc Tribunal is but
pretensc, and arbitration only a
means OF delay. Steel and powder are
the implements OF so-callcd civilize: j
powers. During the first century OF
the existence of this nation we usel
these implements only in defense. Ii
! may not be long before the fighting
element i'll the individual may lead lis
into wars where Our only justification
will be national honor and glory

In the death of Ex-senator James
S. O'Brien the city of Saltwater and
the state OF Minnesota has lost popu-
lar and progressive citizen and man
who was esteemed highly by thousands
OF friends throughout the northwest.
He was one Of the best known lumber
men III the state, and in affairs OF bust
ness as we'll as in politics he was al
ways fair and honorable. Many there
are who will honor him in death and
hold him in kind remembrance for the
years to come.

Casualties, caused by war in the
East. have been very light during the
past week. Outside small number of
Russians and Japs killed and wounded
may be added few who have died in
the wheat pit from heart disease, in
directly caused by dollar wheat. Up
to the present writing, however, no
farmer has been reported dead from
such cause. War always comes along
about the time his wheat is gone.

The Protestant Bishop Brown, Of
Arkansas, speaking in Boston on Feb
ruary 18TH before an audience chiefly
of Episcopal clergymen, condoned the
lynching of negroes, says the Pilot.
The Catholic Bishop Durier, OF Match
itoches, La, issued pastoral against
lynching few years ago. Cardinal
Gibbons publicly opposed the disfran-
chisement Of the negroes. 1t is un-
necessary to emphasize the contrast.
Let lis add, however, that the Rev. DIR.
Field, OF the church OF the Advent,
Boston, and others, protested against
Bishop Browns utteranccs.

afteh the fight is on. When she is
ready and starts to move she will be
as hard to stop as she was slow to
move. 1t is hardly probable that Rus
STA will allow any serious fighting to
take place before the middle of next
summer. Ii Russia is to be defeated
in this war it will be because Japan
can stand stress and expenses OF war
for a longer number OF years than can
Russia. This seems unreasonable and
it is likely that ii left to themselves

tnc imperiallstic policy OF the presi
dent, William Morton Grnnell, a
prominent Republican, an appointet
Of Benjamin Harrison and a nephew
of Levi p Moron, has come out for
Judge Parker His announcement is
another sign OF the drift OF Republi
can thought toward eonsttutionalism
as opposed to imperialism.
Mr. Grinnell comes of a family
which for three generations has up
held the traditions OF the party which
he has left. His grandfather was one
OF the members OF the electoral col
lege who voted for the first Harrison.
Mr. .Grlnnell served under Benjamin
Harrison as third assistant secretary
of state He is practieing lawyer
ia this city and director OF the II
llnois Central railroad and OF several
other corporations.
MY decision" said Mr., Grinnell
this evening, has been reached after
much thought on this subject. The
president may be all very we'll in
his place. but | think that he would
do better as Viking in the Ninth
century than as the ruler OF this
country. His acts have gone beyond
the BOUNDS Of law and in many cases
he has fomented class and race hat
red by his policies.
Perhaps there is no objection TO
a president being a little autocratic,
but he has oyerrid1en the constltu-
ton and disrogarded the law His
making of appointments during a
recess, that is. in reality
no recess. is a case in point. His
signing OF the rule which made every
veteran of the civil war an invalid
per Sc and entitled to a pension is
another example
The motive OF it was 10 gain votes
but 1t amounted TO nothing less than
an absolute decree These men be-
came invalids and entitled to a pen
sion because he so commanded.
His conduct with regard to the
Panama canal is ridiculous. 1t Is
more absurd than Illegal for it
