on WHICH The SHfOIl1cle IOuHu llSellt
out of harmony with it's party has dis
appeared The Chronicle forthwith i'm
proves this occasion to turn Repub-
lican.
Every newspaper has the right to
choose it's own party and associates, if
it does not choose them too frequently,
and it has to pay the piper. But we
think that there has never been in the
history of politics more absurd and
The reasons given by the Chronicle
are strictly idiotic. 1t advances the
paramountcy of Bryan and the Popu-
listic views of the West and South as
the influences that repel it, just at the
moment when Mr.. Bryan is repeatedly
beaten and finally retired, and the West
| and South given in their, complete ad-
hesion to the conservative view of the
North and East
The real reason for the Chronicles
detection will be found not on the neg
ative, but on the positive SIDE We
| discovered it in this sentence from its
valedictory: "Disagreeing fundamen-
| tally with this leader and this party in
| most things and agreeing with the Re-
| publican party in the essentials of its
| Chronicle agrees with the Republican
party in the essentials of it's creed.
! The Chronicle has persuaded itself that
robbery by protection is a good thing.
| The Chronicle is of the opinion that
| extravaganza in congress and uniform
| corruption in the public departments
| from top to bottom should prevail. The
| Chronicle believes that the executive
| stands above and superior to the laws;
| and that the business of the legislative
| power and the courts is simply to reg
| lister and ratify his will. The Chronicle
| believes in the imperialistic system;
! in the subjugation and exploitation of
! helpless peoples; in the rule Of the
| trusts. Thus believing, it is quite right
! in leaving the Democratic party UR-
less it did so believe, it could not find
| itself agreeing with the Republican
| party in the essentials of it's creed"
| Those who are not for us are against
| us. We bid farewell to the Chronicle
not without regret, because it has been
/ in many particulars clean and ably
conducted paper; but Democracy
| neither wishes nor needs the help of
any who "agree with the creed" of Re
great Democratic party of the Middle
West and the Northwest will find truer
and more faithful mouthpieces. T h e
Glob e, enlisted heart and soul in the
work of this campaign, can promise
| that no Democrat in this vast space
| lying within its own field shall suffer
! for lack of a faithful representation
! of the party's principles and purposes;
] of a newspaper that shall be Demo-
| the word.
1t is announced by Republicans that
| the nomination of Parker has con-
vinced them of the necessity of an
/ active campaign and that Fairbanks
| will take the stump in twenty seven
! states. That's all right about the need
of campaigning to save their bacon;
but the idea of the ponderous and
clammy Fairbanks as a stimulus to
| enthusiasm is the novelty.

casey,s Name Redeemed

There were thoughts in Casey's thinker
when it came his turn to hit.
Half-past S the clock recorded-it was
getting time to quit;
Casey felt his belt a-loosening-supper
time was drawing near
LET him pass me up a good one and I'll
end the fun right here"
Saying this, his feet he planted firmly in
the weH-packed earth,
Though the poet says l strike out, here
is where l show my worth"
To the plate the ball came sailing-Casey
soused it on the beak-
Out it scared toward the palings, leaped
the fence and made sneak.
Round the bases Casey sauntered - his
home run won the game,
And wiped out a stain which long had
been disgraeeful to his name.

GO SLOW ON BOND ISSUES

T e Globe is against increasing
the tax levy of ST. Paul and of Ramsey
county. 1t has taken the ground that
our expenditures should be governed
can comfortably pay for. 1t has said
and still maintains that the correct
rule is to insist that the tax levy shall
be diminished every year, and regu-
late expenditures accordingly; instead
of determining first how much we want
to spend and then levying a tax rate
high enough to raise it.
For exactly the same reasons T e
Clio b e believes that the bonded in
debtedness of the city of st. Paul and
the county of Ramsey should not suf-
fer further increase except under pres
sure of the highest necessity. By slow
and gradual degrees we are starting
upon the evil old order of more than
twenty years ago, that piled up the
huge debt under which the city has
been staggering ever since. Always
there is the specious plea made for
just this particular bond issue. AL
ways it is some real interest of the city
that needs taking care of; and always
that stale, fiat and lying old plea is
brought forward about making pos
terity bear part of the burden" We
fo1.
years ago is concerned, and we are not
bearing our share of the burdens which
the people of that day passed on to u.s.
The posterity argument is sheer hum
bug.
Now it is proposed to issue $1OO, 600
in bonds for building a new high
school. The Globe protests against
it. h e G o b e has shown a way by
which the high school problem could
be settled without the expenditure of a
dollar and to the great benefit of every
educational interest in the city. 1t ad-
mits freely that the board of educa-
ton and the city council have a right
since the people of st. Paul showed no
interest and absolutely refused to help
the board out of its dilemma or give it
any advice in its doubt But we for
ourselves propose that our skirts shall
be clear, and we declare that a bond
issue of 100000 as proposed is unwise,
1lnnnnpcSol,U INN
1t is SO much of an addition to the
public debt, so much of an addition to
the annual interest charge, SO much
more money, principal and interest
eventually to be raised by taxation, all
without warrant Of actual necessity.
st. Paul no more needs another high
school. than it needs another bridge
across the Mississippi. Every such in
stitution so established becomes a CEN
ter of new needs, new demands upon
2 the treasury and new expenditure
This bond issue ought not to be made.
Still less eNcusable is the proposition
to bond the county in order that our
precious county commissioners NAV
have more money to throw away. The
county budget as proposed-ought to be
cut down all along the line. There is
no excuse for additions to salaries.
there is no excuse for a single item of
added expenditure, unless it be to
make up deficit in the poor fund.
The most impudent proposition of all
is that We raise $4,000 extra Nfor good
roads. when the budget already con-
tains an item of $4,000 for roads and
bridges. This sum is ample for all
purposes. What the county board pro-.
poses is TO permit an increase of debt

for building actual roads under the
plan proposed by the good roads as
sociation, if the $4,000 year which
the people now pay for roads that they
do not get is continually collected and
squandered in the acquisition of more
political pull. 1t is an atrocious propo-
sition and ought not to be listened to
for moment.
T h e G 10 b e, then, repeats that the
bonded indebtedness of this city and
county ought not to be added to by a
single dollar. 1t is not going to make

We publish this morning the an
nouneement by Mr.. Bryan that he will
support the Democratic ticket. The
statement should be superhuous in
view OF the fact that he was a member
of the convention that nominated it,
asserting to all the conclusions reach
ed. The assertion that Judge Parker
is a s.Wall street candidate" is Simply
part Of the vocabulary to which Mr..
Bryan has SO far fallen a victim that
he uses the words without much idea
of their meaning, except that they
must apply. to every man who believes
in the gold standard. In as far as they
may carry the inference that Judge
Parker would do more or less than his
whole duty, regardless of any man, of
wealth or poverty, they convey a
falsehood. We think that Mr.. Bryan's
best friends will regret what he has said
rashly, and that he himself will find
that his present course, in defiance of
the agreement reached for harmony,
will weaken if it does not destroy his
influence in the party's councils. His

What the Editors Say

Judge Parker has been criticised
during the past few months because
he has studiously declined to discuss
political questions. This fact should
commend him to all right-Ininded citi-
zens. He is member of the ju-
dietary; he believes, as we should all
believe, that judges should refrain
ffom mixing in political discussions
and struggles In obedience to this
conviction he has remained silent amid
the turmoil and has paid no heed to
the insane criticisms of those who OBJ
Jected to his silence and accused him
OF being a candidate of the enemies of
Democracy Through it all he has not
uttered word, and today the people
OF the nation approve and commend
his dignified course. 1t is fortunate
for the country it is fortunate for the
Democratic party, that Judge Parker
is the nominee of the Democracy for
presfdent.-St. Cloud Times.
