The decision to send the man Daurignac

Campaign and Insurance Funds.

From the New York Tribune.
Nobody who remembers the first McKin-
ley campaign will find 1t difficult to under
stand the point of view of the insurance
officers who IN that year made the political
contribution testified to before the Arm
strong committee. From the point of view
of public policy. we must regard all such
contributions. in the long rum as vicious.
In the United States the government Is in
tended to be government of men. A cor
poration Is not a citizen with right to
vote or take a hand otherwise In politics.
It Is an artificial creation brought into ex-
istence by favor of the state solely to per-
form the functions allowed by it's charter.
Interference by it with the state and at
tempts by 1t to exercise rights Of citizen
ship are fundam entally a perversion of Its
power It's stockholders, no matter how
wise or how rich. should be forced to exer-
else their political influence as individuals
on an equality with other men. That is the
basic principle Of democracy and forgetful-
ness Of 1t Is responsible for many corpora
ton abuses and for much of the popular
prejudice against Incorporated wealth.

The First DaY.

The first day OF school brings some sad
ness and much Joy. The boy and girl who
have played all summer are perhaps loath
10 leave their games. the delightful ideness
of the unoccupied day, the liberty of action.
They may dream bit today as they sit in
school. seeing visions OF green fields and
babbling brooks. II may be difficult to get
D true perspective on the books and black
boards. But there Is nevertheless fasci-
baton about the first day There Is
usually new teacher. That means o new
friend. perhaps a chance to change from un-
pleasant associations. The new teacher al
Ways offers a wide opportunity for novelty.
Then there are new lines Of study.
Whereas last year the "joggerfy' dealt
pnly with the homo land. this year It will
treat of strange regions. deserts and jun

November in Chattanooga.

For the meeting OF representative south
ern men called for November and 10 at
Chattanooga, two subjects for discussion
are announced:
First. a uniform system Of Quarantine in
the matter of yellow fever
The second subject Is stated thus:
Again. there are coming into the United
States at the present time a larger number
of foreign immigrants than ever known In
great masses who are wholly undesirable
and whom 1t will be impossible to assmi-
late with our institutions. There Is appar-
emily a desire or tendency to bring many Of
these undesirable immigrants to southern
ports and also to distribute them from
northern centers into the south.
The south will welcome desirable immi-
grants from all lands. and 1t has already
vacial problems of such gravity that no
others should be invited until proper safe
guards are provided In advance of their
coming"
The question of physical health Is put
FIRST, and It is very important. An out
break OF yellow fever in the south, with no
common purpose or provision to meet 1t,
throws the people into a panic that pro-
duces scenes and acts of almost indesorib-
able inhuman!ty. Shotgun guarantees are
q disgrace to civilization, and the only rem
edy-if there Is a remedy-is in concert of
action and standing means to meet such
emergencies. The national power should
be invoked
But the second question is far greater in
that 1t goes to the very roots of permanent
order In the south. Yellow fever. when pres
ent Is a matter of but few months, and
there are sometimes years between out
breaks. But II labor conditions In the south
become complicated and racial problems are
multiplied. the south will be the theater of
will shake the whole section to the center,
and affect other sections as well.
The Star has touched upon this question
several times recently. Some of the south
ern planters. impatient with the negroes,
have been considering the employment Of
help from southern Europe. while others,
acting In concert with southern manufac-
turers whose eyes are trained on oriental
markets for cotton goods, have been talking
OF, coolie labor. Here, as The Star has
pointed out. would be a mess that would do
as much damage as II served hot from the
devils own kitchen. The south is not In the
clutches of the negroes. but they are on the
ground in large numbers and certain to re-
main. and In remedying their deficiencies
the greatest care should be taken not to
force them into competition with people
who. like the coolies, would arouse the very
worst antagonisms OF their nature.
Sc far as this picture OF the. Chattanooga
meeting is concerned. while the south is I'M
med,ately interested. the whole country has
stake In the problem. and north east and
west may well wish to see it wisely solved.

The Department Of State cannot of course
force the fishermen Of this country to keep
on their own side of the line. The fishing
companies. II now. appears. have given their
boat captains strict orders to obey the law
and TO set their ssines only In American
waters. but the fishermen. eager for greater

very blackboard has acquired greater sug-
yestiyeness. There will be days when 1t

There Is nothing comparable to the school
life of the growing child. There in the class
room the marvels of creation are set forth.
The little one becomes slowly acquainted
with the facts of the universe He discov-
ers that the earth Is round, like ball,
without making dangerous voyages; learns
that all the peoples do not talk his own Ian
guage. He comes to love the maps, and to
rejoice in the tales of adventure that his
history relates. He expands in spirit as his
mind develops. His life is full of possibili-
ties. full of marvels.
Does the many-celled school building of
today compare for pure pleasure-giving
with the old red school house of the cross
roads? 1t is far cry from one to the
other There is less of true socialism in the
modern institution, with It's strict division
into classes. There are fewer opportunities
for personal expression. on account of a
more rigid discipline. The birch rod is not
used today as 1t was a few decades ago.
The teacher is an exponent of a system. not
a personal menace of physical force. She
governs by love If she can, by virtue of the
authority vested In her II love fails to ac-
complish its object.

Judge Parker on Campaign Funds.

Judge Parker halls the disclosures made
by George W. Perkins as complete justffca-
ton of the charge he made against the re-
publican campaign managers on the eve OF
last years presidential election. He would
have us believe he knew whereof he spoke.
But II is still very clear that he spoke with
out definite knowledge. and only as the or
binary spellbinders OF his party were speak
ing He was raising an old party cry, ana
In an old party way. Had he known where
OF he spoke and been able to give particu-
lars-such particulars as Mr.. Perkins now
has given-he would. even at that late day.
have created a profound impression. he
might not have turned back the tide OF
battle, which had set toward Mr.. Roose-
welt without the aid of money, but he
would have performed. If not altogether IN
selhshly. an important public service.
But. even them Judge Parker would nave
labored under some difficulties. He would
not have come into court with clean hands
and that is an essential in such matters
He knew. as everybody else did, that his
OWE campaign was In the hands of corpora
tiorlsts, selected because of their own large
means and their connections with Wall
street, and that they were collecting and
using large sums of money in behalf of his
candidacy. Although noting the difference
between money coming as this had come
from a life insurance company and that
coming from sources like the Belmonts, the
public would yet have smiled at Judge Par
Eer's heat and virtuous Indignation.
Here however. is an incontestibly strong
point in Judge Parker's deliverance;
There can be no hope of checking the
unlawful aggressions of officers of great
corporations so long as they may thus form
d quasi partnership with the organization
of the dominant political party, for In the
hour when the administrative official seeks
80 punish the offender. he is reminded by
Abe head of the organization of the mag

ZION.
"1'here Is, however. something worse, II
possible, than the escape of such offenders
from justice 1t is the gradual demoraliza-
Zion of voters, and the dulling OF public
conscience caused by the efforts to make
these vast sums of money procure the bal
lots they were intended to procure, cor
fuptly and otherwise"
This takes rank with what is called the
gospel truth" Money raised in large sums
from corporations and plutocratio sources
for either party-and In all of our national
elections 1t has been raised for both par
tles-goes in some measure for improper
purposes and to procure ballots corruptly."
Judge Parker's own campaign was no ex-
eeption to the rule.

A "Reminiscences,

She's far away. the summer girl.
The months have swiftly hurried by,
And lonely, mid the breakers swirl.
The ocean zephyr breathes its sigh.
I wonder was she short or tall.
That lass whose charms could SO beguile
But tall that fancy can recall
Is Just q freckle and q smile.
I know not If her eyes were blue.
Or If her hair was raven black;
OF graces such as these we view
Each day no noticeable lack.
But nature ne'er again has caught
The archness, the unstudied vile.
The psychic combination wrought
BY Just freckle and a smile.
