A GOOD NOMINATION

TINE Republican Convention OF
the Second Congressional Dis
trict is to be congratulated on
the unanimity and enthusiasm with
which it again nominated Mr.. Robert
Garrett, and on Mr.. CARROTS willing
ness to once again make the fight
Bob Garrett, as they call him, is the
sort OF man we want in politics. Nat
uraly his opponents will ascribe his
nomination entirely to his wealth. That
is easy and is supposed to be popular.
But nobody who knows Mr.. Garrett
will be disturbed by it. His riches have
in no wise impaired his manliness.
Strong, clean, fearless, educated, pat
rotic, Mr.. Garrett belongs to that type
of men who believe that privilege en-
tails responsibility, that his endow-
ments OF wealth and education call for
the using of them in the service OF his
commonwealth, that patriotism, in this
day, means devotion to the cause OF
good government, and that the best
citizen is he who goes down into the
thick o the fight with clean hands
and high purpose Mr.. Garrett has
announced his determination to get
into Maryland poitics-win or lose.
He has announced his determination
to give himself with courage and per-
tinacity to the contest with Talbotism
in the Second District. And |, for one,
hope he will beat no retreat, be the
battle short or long. until he has Sue
ccedcd in beating the notorious Fred
Talbot, and in RELOCATING him forever
to the ranks OF discredited political
bosses.

CARROLL'S RINGING RESOLU.
TIONS

IT f man who wrote the reSolu-
i tons of CAROLS Republican
Convention, last week, was
writing good stuff. To recast his sen
fences would be only to weaken them;
we want only to repeat them, to ap-
prove them, to read and re-read them
until they stir the heart like trum-
pet''-not once but abidngy. Here
they are:
Resolved, That we realize that what
were heretofore considered national
ideals are beginning to change, and
that the world now sees that the perils
OF American commercialism in the
sense that the materialistic ideal rules
the American people are passing away,
and that a new ideal, equal in nobility
to that which inspired the founders OF
the republic, is rapidly establishing its
sway over the American mind and
heart. The problems, the solution of
which this new ideal will determine, are
the great economic ones-a more care
full guardianship OF the interests and
rights OF the people in the mass; and.
therefore, fewer Impoverished privileges
given to individuals and corporations;
better public service, with fidelity to
the people its ruling spirit, rather than
the temporary success OF political par
ties; and, in genera,'a settlement of
all questions from the standpoint OF
conscience as we'll as intelligence.
That this new period and the ideal
which marks it, distinct from the mean
ing and purpose of the periods and
ideals that have gone before it, will
produce, is producing, its reflection in
American public life, The people are
beginning to think OF justice as well as
dividends; righteousness as well as
profit, for Righteousness exalteth
nation
That the people are weary OF the
money ideal alone, with its million
comforts and its million cruelties, its
million Injuries and its million inius-
tees, its lncessant ministry to the flesh
and It's perpetual weakening OF the
spirit, must stop worshiping mere
wealth in the mass; must stop regard
ing huge railroad systems or vast or
CARNATIONS as things so big and adj
mirabe that people ought to serve
them rather than that they ought to
serve the people Let them quit their
jdolatry of the golden calf and stop
thinking that a man is wise and good

II URRAH for that Idaho woman
l. l. who broke the slate OF the
State leaders, stampeded the
convention in her favor, and carried
off the nomination for Superintendent
OF Public Instruction. What else
could that gathering OF husbands and
sweethearts have expected? Were they
so young to the world as not to have
learned the irresistibleness OF wom-
ans winning ways. Didn't they know
that all the wiles and all the wits OF all
the mere men that ever lived would be
but as an infants pulling cry beside a
woman's maSterful word OF command?
Who was it said Il have the best wife
in the world she lets me do just any
thing SHE pleases." That's splendid
The man who sees facts thus clearly and
accepts them thus calmly may be al
lowed, yet little longer, to treasure
his empty title and call himself Lord
OF Creation'-in sundry deserted
places and under his breath But in an
open convention, with the eyes OF wives
and Sweethearts fastened on them, what
could you expect a gathering OF mere
men to do but to bow the knee TO the
inevitable an dto gracefully yield the
prize to the fair claimant, whose sweet
est smile may indeed but sheathe the
forked lightning And so Miss Cham
berlain was nominated. And why not
wisely, considering that the Office for
which she is running is that OF Super
intendent OF Public Instruction? What
ever we may or may not think OF wo-
mans entrance upon the sphere OF pub
lie activities. it certainly is not easy to
controvert her peculiar fitness for the
department OF public instruction. The
experiments, thus far made in this di-
rection, have rather gone to show that
when educated, public spirited wo-
men take a hand in school matters, the
schools are distinctly the gamers there
by. Why should mere custom, a ira
dition rule out OF this realm the very
persons who are most fitted to be most
useful in it, Welcome, oh woman, to
the sphere OF childhood instruction,
You will adorn any station in it-irom
mothers memorable slipper, to the
Experimenting OF the Schools.

COOLIE LABOR ON THE CANAL
TIME press dispatches OF the past
i week report Samuel Gompers,

TINE press dispatches OF the past
i week report Samuel Gompers,
President oi the American Fed
Grafton OF Labor. as dcnouncing the de-
cison OF the Panama Canal Commission
to experiment with Chinese Coolies i'll
the digging OF the ditch. But the pro-
test is not likely to meet with much
favor amongst those who try to bring
a judicial mind to the consideration OF
every public question. The reply OF
Mr. ShontS, Chairman ui the Canal
Commission seems very reasonable and
sufficient and we herewith Subjoin the
same Tor our readers benefit:
The eight hour law does not apply
to unskiled labor on the lsthmuS. The
entire present unSkilled labor force is
alien. 1t is not seen why law passed
in the interest OF American labor at
home should be made applicable to
alien labor who probably never heard
OF its existence. The American labor
er in this country would have to pay
his share OF the consequent increased
taxation without any compensating
benefit to himself.
AT the time OF my interview with
Mr. Gompers. | said that my under
standing OF the reason for the enact
ment OF the eight-hour law was pri-
mariy to give to the highest type OF
labor in the world longer hours for
mental recreation and Improvement;
but that with the lowest class OF labor,
as at Panama, it was more helpful and
improving to permit them to work ten
hours day and pay them for it--be-
cause they are paid by the hour
EXCLUSION LAW DOES NOT
APPLY.
AS to the statement OF Mr.. Com
pers that the existing law excludes
Chinese coolies or laborers from the
United States or any OF its possessions;
the Panama Canal zone is an Ameri-
can possession, and it is as much a
violation OF the law to bring Chinese
coolies there as it is in other portions
OF our country can only say that the
commission has secured the opinion OF
the highest legal authorities OF the
Government. 1t has been held that
such law does not apply to the Canal
Zone
The law excluding Chinese specih-
cally set forth that such laws should
only be applicable to territory at that
time subject to the authorities OF the
United States. The Canal Zone was
acquired subsequent to that date.
The canal must be dug, and the
first requisite is to have the labor to
dig it. We do not believe it wise or
economical to depend only on the West
Indian negroes. We cannot obtain
the unskilled labor in sufficient number
from the United States. 1t is there
fore, not in competition to our own
labor, and any agreement entered into
will provide for the return of Chinese
direct to China upon the completion OF
service.

MUCH CLOUDY WEATHER.
Showers Over South Dakota Were
Welcomed, However.

Huron, S. D., June S.-The report of
the bureau of crops and weather for
the past week says:
There was considerable cloudy
weather and less than the usual amount
of sunshine during the week. Moderate
to fairly generous amounts of rain oc-,
Cured generally on Tuesday, and wide
ly scattered light showers on Wednes-
day, and showers occurred over parts
of the eastern portion of the state on
Sunday. In all districts the soil is
amply moist, and in some places it is
too wet Reports from the northern
counties east of the Missouri river
continue to indicate that In that dis
trict considerable low land is still too
wet to be worked, and that some is
covered with water Between Tuesday
and Sunday fair weather prevailed,
though with more than the usual
amount of cloudiness.
1.-The early part Of the week was
cool, but the latter part was warmer
in the daytime, though the nights
were rather cool for the time in the
season. On Wednesday and Saturday,
which were generally the warmest
days, the maximum temperature ranged
from 70 to 81 degrees.
"On the whole, the temperature con-
ditions, taken in connection with the
unusual cloudiness, were but fairly ia
vorable for growth. Except in the
northern counties. where the recent

not unfavorable, except that in a num-

NOMINATED LINCOLN.
Late John A. Nye Attended Famous
Wigwam Convention.

Deadwood, S. D., June 1.-THE funeral
OF The late John A. Nye, which was held
in this city yesterday brought to mind
one Of the most interesting events in
his life and one which but few men in
the United United. States, and perhaps none,
In 1860 he was resident of the ter
ritory of Colorado and was elected as
delegate to the republican national
convention in Chicago, the famous wig
VAN convention at which Abraham
Lincoln was nominated as president.
AS this was long before the days of
railroads, and as Colorado was then an
ultra-frontier state, Mr.. Nye had a long
and tedious journey in order to reach
the convention.
He started from Denver on horse
pack, the country was new and Indians
and road agents abounded, his time
was limited and he could not AFFORD
TO wait In order to join some party GO
Ing through, therefore he pushed on
alone.
He was well armed. however, and
rode good horse. and though he had
many narrow escapes he reached the
Missouri river just in time to catch the
last train which would enable him to
reach Chicago in time for the great
day.
He was successful, however, and was
always proud of the fact that he noni-
mated Lincoln for the presidency.
