PUBLIC OPINION AGAINST
 BRADY

It seems to be conceded by the press of the Pacific coast irrespective of the previous attitude toward him that Gov, Brady will have to walk the plank and that he will only get his just due when he shall be deprived of his official posi- tiou. His connection with the Key nolds-Alaska Development Company has convinced those who have given the matter their attention that he has for ieited his one claim to the confidence Of the administration.
 It was admitted by the government officials that the people of Alaska were opposed to the continuation of Brady in office. It was confessed by many ot those who had given their support to him tha, he was not the proper man for the position which he held. But said the president, "he Is honest, ' and that statement was echoed and re-echo- cd throughout the capital city, and on the strength oi 1t he was named for a third term.
 People have begun to look upon servant girl" corporations as dishon- est, and when Gov. Brady permitted the use of his name and official position by che promoters oi the Reynolds Alas ka Development Company for the pur' pose Of facilitating the sale oi stock iu that corporation, official Washington saw him in new light,
 Once upon time the proper means of getting rid oi a man who was in tll favor was being discussed. A wise man suggested that it he were given enough rope he would hang himself, Brady has been using the rope with which President Roosevelt presented him to good purpose,

NICHIGAN'S PEACH FEAST.

The region of storms and the region of Gains
are often separated by an almost Invisible line
of demarcation in nature, and also in human
nature. Politically the demarcaton is generally
more broadly marked. An example of the lat
ter is to be found IN the States Of Wisconsin and
Michigan. In the former the militant Governor
and Senator elect is the chief figure. and wher-
ever he goes there is an area that might he
broadly described as cyconic. There is an
aggressveness in the air that bodies III for the
politician or the interests that combat the Gov

parties carry something OF military spirit in

battle and the joy of daily strife.

Michigan lies the fair and pleasant land OF the

who can keep their heads upon their pillows @,

NO INJUSTICE TO THE NEGRO.

A misleading construction has been put--even
by Republican newspapers-on certain phrases
IN the platform adopted last Wednesday by
the Republicans of Maryland The campaign
this year IN Maryland is being fought on a
single issue-the adoption or rejection OF the
suffrage amendment TO the constitution ap'
proved by the last legislature. The Republican
party sincerely and earnestly opposes this
amendment, on the ground that it challenges
the democratic theory Of equal rights and
seeks TO create arbitrarily two classes Of voters
the privileged and unprivileged. The Demo
cratic managers propose TO substitute for a
single standard of eligibility. applying equally
10 all voters two distinct and separate stand
ards-the one to serve for the more favored
caste the other for the prescribed and inferior
remnant To belong to the superior class.
according TO the terms Of the suffrage amend
ment, one has only 10 show that he possesses
"ancestors"-that is. that he had ancestors en-
titled to vote in Maryland prior 10 1869. In
the non privileged proletariat TO be herded
tire negroes whose ancestors prior to 1869
were neither voters nor citizens, and the citi-
Zeus of foreign birth and their children-Ger-
mans Irish, English Scandinavians, Hebrews
opd the rest--who in the last thirty five or forty
wears have contributed so materially TO Mary
lands growth and progress.
Standing for tie broad American principle
of nOn-dlSCrimlDduOu anu SqudI tests
irnpartially applied TO ali classes Of voters. the
Republican party is now censured in some
quarters for practically accepting the opposi-
lion view and countenancing negro disfranchise-
ment. Support for this paradoxical criticism
is alleged 10 be found In this declaration Of last
weeks platform:
The Republican party % the State OF Mary
land fayors no social equality among the races,
feyors no negro domination over the white peo-
rle here or elsewhere and can be depended upon
TO guard against the establishment or either OF
these conditions here In Maryland.
This sentence is cited as proof that the
Republican party IN Maryland acquiesces in
the theory that the negro as such is disqualified
for she suffrage. No conclusion, however, could
.e more unjust and unfounded. The Maryland
Republicans do not favor social equality" or
NEGRO domination" There is no reason why
they should favor either Social equality" is not
desirable: 1t is not desired either by the whites
or bv the negroes Nor could 1t be secured by
neiifical action. Conditions which make pos
ssbIe social equality must be established before
legislation recognizing t. can be OF any avail.
These conditions are too remote To be seriously
considered. Equally remote and equally fanci-
fu iE the idea OF establishing negro DONNA
