NOBLE WORDS OF A NOBLE MAN.

In conclusion, Judge Parker epito-
mics the campaign issues in these
five questions:
"Shall economy of administration
he demanded, or shall extravaganza
be encouraged p"
"Shall the wrongdOer be brought to
bay by the people, or must justice wait
upon political oligarchy p"
"Shall u government stand for
equal opportunity, or for special privi-
lege ?r
Shall it remain a government Of
law, or become one Of individual ca
price ?"
Shall we cling to the rule Of the
people, or shall we embrace beneficent
despOtism ?'
These are the questions which the
American voters will ask themselves.
Remembering that the democratic
party has ever been the party Of the
people, with Judge Parker, we await
the peoples verdict, "with calmness
aud with confidence

WHICH,
The New York world asks this i'm
pOTtant question:

The New York world asks this i'm,
pOrtant question;
(which is the real Roosevelt the
one that preached the doctrine of "ef-
ficient fighting strength" and the "big
stick" or the u who promises a
a worlds peace conference; the one
that threatened the South American
republics with the interference of the
United States unless they showed that
they knew chow to act with decency
in industrial and political matters, +"
kept order and their obligations, or the
n that urges upon each nation a just
recognition Of the rights Of others p"
There can be but one real Roosevelt
and those who know him best know
him rs a man Of war, a young man in
fatuated with the "pOmp, pride and
circumstances" Of war. 1t will not
do TO trust him with the command Of
the army and navy Of a great nation.
The temptation to overthrow will be
altogether too great.

MID

BY common consent 1t Is agreed tina
the present national canvass Is les
stained with elimination aud recrim'
inatlon than any Of It's predecessors
Mud ninging has fallen into "inocuou'
desuetude," and "you are another
has been relegated 10 bygone.
Mr.. Roosevelt is spoken Of rs &
strenuous" man, "a "war man." al
exceedingly incautiOus man, especially
at times rs to his associates, a reckless
spender Of public money, as disposed
to usurp legislative functions, while he
is only charged with executive duties,
and that as the result Of all i%nscrutable
providence, but no one has accused
him Of being a bad husband, or a bad
citizen. And we all remember that
only "a few years ago his predecessors on
the national race course were accused
Of all these things. The gifted Garfield
was actually accused Of having appro-
prlated less than four hundred dollars
Of another mans money, while Wash
ington and Jefferson and Marshall and
Jackson and Calhoun and Clay and
men Of like kind were in turn charged
with we'll nigh all crimes against
which human enactments have been
written.
OfJudge Parker some few have been
bold enough to say that the memOra-
ble Telegram" was the work Of con.
%spirators, and that his decisions as
judge have been rendered in the in
terest Of trusts, but as to his personal
integrity and good as man and brother,
one has dared suggest a question.
1t is pleasant to write these things
and that they are true is pregnant Of
hope for the future Of America.
May the time yet come speedily
when Christians and citizens alike
may learn to differ and not fling dirt.
"Be true to thyself and it follows as
night the day thou csns't then be false
to no man.

SUNDAY LAWS.

them from the operations Of the law,
and the issue will be watched with in

What are necessary things in this age
IN which We live have yet to be judi

The Jews Of old had two DAYS Of

But, then, there are so many things
That we don't just understand that we

problem that wen Mr.. Roosevelt, with
all his youthful vigor and wonderful
r7sourcefulness We challenge to solve,
anu 1t is this, why an American citi-

MR.. HURST GETS ANOTHER
FRAGRANT POLITICAL BOQUET

Despite the indispositiOn on the part
Of Hon. f.. W. Hurst to be considered
in the light of even Il receptive candi-
date for the democratic gubernatorial
nomination in Illinois. the Chicago pa
pers are not inclined to take him at
his word in this respect MIR. Hurst,
in fact. seems to occupy Il rather
unique position at the present time.
one. indeed. not often enjoyed by men
in the public eye, politically-in that
there is Il large representation of the
people who. instead of refusing to
take his candidacy seriously. refuse to
take his dcclination seriously. And
who can blame the people so dispos-
ed? 1t was once said that ''sGme men
are horn great, some men achieve
greatness. and some men have great
ness thrISt upon them" 1t ought not
Ia be difficult to discover which
place in this category the people
would most prefer To find their favor

how man can. in real, downright,
