Tho Counterfeit and the Genuine.
The national democratic platform
as revised by Candidate Parker in
his speech of acceptance, bears every
appearance Of republicanism.
There is thus presented to the
voters the strange condition of an
opposition party that has abandoned
all its distinctive principles and has
approved the principles that 1t has
been opposing in former years and
that have been carried into success
full execution by its political oppon-
ents.
The financial issue, which was de-
clared to be paramount In the demo
cratic platforms of 1896 and 1900,
was ignored by the st. Louis con
vention and was smashed to smith
Greens by Judge Parker's telegram.
The tariff issue embodied in the
platform declaration that protection
is robbery has been modified by the
presidential candidate to a mild hope
that the republican msiority in the
senate will permit the democrats, if
successful, to reduce present sched
ules without disturbing business in.
terests or causing uncertainty and
alarm.
The democratic attitude toward
the Philippines as explained by
Candidate Parker is quite different
from the Interpretation given by Mr..
Bryan, and differs in no essential re-
spect from the course that is now
being pursued by the republican
party in power.
The democratic labor plank is am
biguous and contains nothing sub
stantial except platitudes and politi
cal a1ioms.
Democracy of today is nothing
else than counterfeit republicanism,
and if the parties were to be judged
only by their platforms there would
be little to choose between them.
Certainly no one who believes in the
principles set forth in Judge Parker's
speech of acceptance can find any
thing Objectionable in the reprbli-
can platform or in the policy that
that has been pursued in the past
four years by President Roosevelt
and his party associates.
Yet it is easy to be seen that the
Parkerized democracy is nothing
more than a counterfeit. The re-
form of the democracy is too recent
The Lamar register., 1904-08-24

to be entirely genuine and Judge
Parker's efforts to make the demo-
cratic tiger look like the republican
elephant will not meet with the fav.
or of the American people.
There is only one genuine repub-
licanism in the country, and that is

The Ca ampaig n for Law and order

Inc Sd"p pdiS n IoT kd~ dUo 0Eo0T.
The democrats, while represent
ing that Judge Parker stands dis
tinctly for a government of law, are
at the same time trying to, make cap
ital out of the Colorado situation, de-
claring that Governor Peabody acted
AS dictator and tyrant, when he
employed the military forces OF the
state to suppress insurrection and
enforce the law.
They would do we'll to consider
the inconsistency of these two posi-
tions. If Judge Parker stands for q
government of law, he and his fol-
lowers cannot condemn the enforce
ment of law IN Colorado. By con-
demning Governor Peabody they
may gain the sympathy of few So
cialists and anarchists who approve
any one who condemns those whs
see that, the laws are enforced, but
they will forfeit the respect of the
great body of conservative business
tuen who demand first of all that we
he given u stable government, with
out which business must beco me
ssagnant and industries fail.
The acts of Governor Peabody
cannot be condemned by those who
condemn the Western Federation Of
Miners and all others who resort to
the use of dynamite and asaassina-
ton to accomplish their ends. The
issue in Colorado is between murder
and anarchy on the one hand and
the enforcement of law on the other.
Concerning this issue, conservative,
law. abiding citizens cannot hesitate.
The right Of every man to work or
to conduct his business as he may
see proper is one of the most sacred
guaranteed to American citizens.
This right was assailed by those
members of the Western Federation
who resorted to murder and intimi-
dation to prevent non union miners
from taking the places of the strik-
ers who threw down their tools and
without just cause refused to work
in Cripple Greek and Telluride and
other places where the Western Fed
GRAFTON was strong enough to induce
them to go out.
The course pursued by Governor
Peabody has been grossly misrepre-
-cated throughout the East, but
falsehood canDot always prevail.
When the truth becomes known, as
it will long befcie the close Of the
presidential campaign, the entire
business community of the East IS
we'll as of Colorado will approve the
acts of Governor Peabody in DIS
charging his constitutional duties by
employing the force at his command
to suppress the lawlessness that pre-
vailed in Teller, San Miguel and
other counties in this state.-Dsnver

j. ARMFIELD TATE.

A group of young men, all &C
tive in the world of business,
were telling hard luck stories at
the Manufacturers Club one
evening recently, reports the
Philadelphia Press. An cleo
trical engineer, still in his early
thirties, whose salary is repre-
sented by five figures, told the
following.
"l'ye been up against it more
than once, but an adventure |
had in New York in '06, like
Aaron's serpent, swallows all the
rest. AT the time | was manag-
er and stakeholder to a limited
extent in Baltimore. We were
operating under a patent, and
things were just beginning to
come our way when we got word
from our salesman that goods
similar to ours were being placed
upon the market at q figure
which we could not meet.
81 got samples of the goods
and the figures from three differ
sources, and at once called a
meeting of the directors. Our
patent was worthless as u matter
of protection, and our only re-
source was secrecy; and, so far
as we were able to do it, our pro-
cess was kept from prying eyes.
But there was some one who was
beating us at our own game. If
we could find out how it was
done, we could do it ourselves :;
if we couldn't it meant ruin.
"The next day, disguised as a
workman, | went over to New
York and found the factory with
out any trouble, but try as |
would | couldn't get employ.
ment. The foreman said he
hadn't work enough to keep his
men going and would have to
discharge some of them. ] was
desperate. 1t was a bitter Win
ter day, and foot and half of
snow lay on the ground. AS Il
last resort | asked him if he
would let me shovel snow from
the sidewalk and give me a
square meal in payment. This
appeal reached his heart, and |
got the job. 1t was no joke |
can tell you, for the factory was
big one and the sidewalk long.
But | was glad to get the chance
for it meant that | was to have
a show to get inside The works,
and | only needed few hours At
most to find out how the trick
was done. 1t took me four hours
to get the sidewalk cleared, and
my back was nearly broken
when | went into the Office again.
The foreman looked up from his
desk as | came in and said:
SCOT it done so quick?'
Eyes said |.
'Let's 90 out and look at it,. }
And we went out. He looked
the sidewalk over and said: It's
a good job. didn't think you
could do it. Now, if you look
sharp you'll be in time to catch
the noon train for Baltimore,
and "Just tell them that you saw
me" That was a new song in
those days, and Eve deteeted if
ever since"

No one is anxious about u

useful work. But where does
he eat his lunch at noon? Where
does he 90 when he leaves his
boarding house at night? What
does he do after supper? Where
does he spend his Sundays and
holidays? The way he uses his
spare moments reveals his char
acter. Most of those who climb
upward to honor and fame devote
their evenings to study or work
or the society Of the wise and
good. For the right use of these
leisure hours, the odd moments
usually thrown away, we would
plead with every youth. Each
evening is crisis in the career
OF Il young man. There is a
deep significance in the lines of
Whittier:
