THE SOUTH AND THE PRESIDENCY.

AhC lCAtlS1tS VI prejudice is We'll
exemplified in our national politics by
the continued refusal of either politi-
cal party to recognize any man from
the South as suitable candidate for
president. During the first sixty
years of our national existence there
was no sectional party. During that
period the presidency was held most of
the time by Southerner while the
vice presidency went to the northern
ers. Zachary Taylor was the last man
from the South elected. That was in
ISIS. The growth of the North and
the slavery question transferred the
weight of political ascendency from
the South to the North. The Civil
war made it impossible for any South
ern man to aspire to the position with
hope of success. Now, after the lapse
of forty years, the bitterness engen-
dered by that struggle is still sufficient
to keep the Democratic party from Sc
lecting candidate from the South, al
though that section furnishes the bulk
of the Democratic electoral votes. Not
until this year has any consideration
been given by Democrats to the idea
of selecting Southern man. It is
conceded that the South will not ask
for the nominee this year, and yet it
is possible that there are Southern
men who would get more electoral
votes if nominated than some Northern
Democrats who might be named. No
good reason can now be given why a
president should not be selected from
the South. The race that furnished
Washington, Jefferson, Madison, Mon
roe, Jackson, Tyler, Polk, Taylor, Lin
coin, johnson and both Harrisons, still
contains splendid material. Williams,
of Mississippi, is as able and patriotic
as any member of either branch of
congress. The state of Texas has two
men in the United States senate, Bailey
and Culberson, who are the equals in
every respect of the best the North
can produce. Either of these men can
hold his own with Spooner or Foraker,
the best there is on the Republican
side. The day is not far distant when
the old prejudices can keep such men
from entering the lists for the highest
office in the land. The wonderful de-
velopment in the North, which has
given that section such preponder
ating influence in population, promises
to be transferred to the South. Texas
may easily some day have greater
population than New York. A South
ern man will not be nominated for
president in 1904, but the time has
about arrived when it will not suffice
to pass by a man from the South as
ineligible to the presidency simply be-
cause he halls from the other side of
the Mason and Dixon line.

William c. Gregg, former manager
of the Minneapolis Iron Store Com.
pany, now a resident of Newburgh, N.
Y, has been in the twin cities recently.
Speaking of the presidency, he says:
president Roosevelt has never been
popular in New York. Many persons
are dissatisfied with him because, like
all strong men, he has an aggressive
personality. People think him too DOM
ineering. Parker appeals to New York
ers as man possessing all of the
presidents good qualities without the
latter's unfortunate qualities for giving
offense. The president has made many
enemies, and it is safe prediction
that Judge Parker will be nominated
and carry New York"

If it serves any purpose in politics
to put the enemy into a hole, Bourke
Cochran has achieved signal triumph;
for he has certainly put the Republi-
can party into hole very snugly, says
the Chicago Public. He has convicted
them of shrinking with fear from an
investigation into the corrupt methods
by which Hanna elected Mckinley in
1896. incidentally Mr.. Cochran has
landed President Cleevland's little
side-party of 1896, the Palmer Buckner
diversion, into somewhat similar hole
with the Republicans. Their cam
paign appears to have been carried on
at the expense of the Republican cor
ruption fund. A nice lot Of Doodle
mongers were those "honest money"
moralists of both parties who saved
the country" from "Bryanism" in
1895!

Except for desultory observance
by a faction of the insignificant So
calist party here, May day, the chosen
anniversary Of the Marx radicals,
passed without incident in New York,
says the New York Sun. May I was
regarded at one time as a day of evil
import for property and order; for that
was the date Of the adoption of the
red flag as the symbol of class strife
and violent methods for new indus
trial and political order. The society
Of the International, organized in Lon
don in 1868, held its first convention
in 1864, and the original manifesto
drawn by Karl Marx was descriptive
Of its purposes, namely, union of
mechanics of various nationalities,
with view to propaganda
Of descriptive and destructive
socialism. The first step in the
work of the International was the dis
regard of the duties and obligations of
patriotism: the second, the adoption
of the motto, mo rights without du-
ties, and no duties without rights"
and the third, the general acceptance
Of the red flag as protest against
economic conditions needing bloodshed
to destroy them. The International
did not survive the first attempt of its
members during brief and bloody
period to carry their projects into ef-
feet in Paris. But the teachings of
the German, English, French and Ital-

A New York lawyer has raised a
hubbub by refusing to tell anything
about will, OH the ground that it is
not only matter between counsel ana
client, but also between Mason and
Mason, says the Catholic Standard and
Times of Philadelphia. In comment,
ing on the matter one corporation law
yer is reported as declaring that there
is no oath, religious or fraternal,
recognized in law as binding. This is
not altogether correct. The seal Of the
confessional is now recognized by the
law as binding on priest, though the
principle had to be fought for more
than once. 1t is the only exception,
so far as we are aware, and therefore
tribute to the character of the Cath
Ole Church beyond which it is not in
the power of man to yield.

Many good people who went to hear
William J. Bryan last night, and went
there skeptical Of the man and his
opinions, came away convinced of his
entire sincerity, consistency and hon
esty. There is nothing like personal
contact to impress many people, al
though the competent student of liter
allure, who has faithfully read the
writings and speeches of Mr.. Bryan
since he has been before the public,
could discover in the man sincerity and
honesty without ever having set eyes
upon him. That he has misjudged the
popular desire is his political misfor-
tune, perhaps, but not a fault, and
there is reason to believe that he will
finally go into history as greater and
ADLER man than many who have filled
the presidential chair, says the Duluth
Herald.

1t is said that the French govern
ment intends to close the famous sane
tuary Of Lourdes, says the San Fran
cisco Leader. 1t is not the first time
that the French government has made
itself ridiculous in a similar manner.
1t was during the monarchy that a
certain cemetery in Paris was closed
by order of the king because of alleged
miracles which it seems were given
political complexion. Whereupon some
wag affixed to. the gates the epigram,
De par lie Roy: Defense a Dieu De
faire miracles dams ce lieu-'By order
of the king: God is forbidden to work
miracles in this locality"

not explained. Another discovery"
attributed to the same authority, is
that Incarceration does not cure habit
ual evil-doers of their criminal pro-
pensities. This information must seem
somewhat belated even to casual OBJ
servers in the field of penology. Edu-
cation is the only hope of better things
in this regard in the judgment of the
learned "discoverer" of these ancient
and venerable facts. And yet it is
notorious that the progress of public
crime keeps pace with the march of
popular education. The British savant
has another guess coming.

Even the st. Paul Dispatch takes
it's hat off to Richard O'Connor for the
victory in st. Paul. In an extremely
flattering editorial it gives that gentle
man credit for the victory which the
Democrats won. We agree with the
Dispatch that Mr.. O'Connor is an ex-
ceedingly acute and able leader, but
we think that the excellent makeup
of the Democratic ticket and the adj
ministration given during the past two
years also had much to do with the
large majorities.

Hearst carried Iowa, but he failed
to get the delegates even from his own
congressional district in New York
One of the peculiar characteristics Of
the Hearst candidacy is it's strength
in Republican strongholds and it's
weakness in Democratic and doubtful
states. The only congressional district
in Iowa which is represented by a
Democrat was against Hearst.

tains that he is not picturesque and

felt of the ''hurrah'' kind of man in

are great many people who would
like to have man in the presidential
chair who would maintain the dignity
of the position. At any rate one pic
turesque candidate at time will af-
ford sufficient excitement.

politics.
