UNFIT FOR THE PLACE.

1t is very likely that Hon. William
II. Jackson will be the Republican
candidate for Congress in this District.
MIR. Jackson has nothing to recommend
him as u candidate for such an office
but his money. He surely has not the
ability requisite to represent the First
Congressional District in the manner il
was represented prior to his advent in
Congress az our misrepresentation.
We have no doubt of Mr.. Jackson 5
ability to secure thousands of votes
through the potency of his barrel. yet
that does not change the fact that he
is an incompetent man for Congress
man. Surely the Republican party is
in bad straights when it has to acknow-
ledge w. II. Jackson's superiority over

A PITY 1T is TRUE.

One of the leading journals of the
country says The highest financial
rewards of politics are no longer offices.
but contracts. franchises and special
privileges.
Another great journal says The
cheap rewards of political place count
for little now in political manoeuvres.
The boss is no longer the man who
distributes patronage The real boss
is the railroad man, the traction man.
the insurance man. the man who is
willing to contribute enormous sums to
the campaign fund, if only his own
interests be left safe or his new projects
be aided.
Protection, which means favorit-
ism, is the price paid by officials, high
and low, in return for contributions.
The corporations pay tribute to the
party in power; and the party in power
gives the corporations the privilege OF
plundering the people with impunity.
Protection, in the form of high
tariffs, franchises, false certificates like
those given to the beef trust, and inn
munity from punishment for crimes.
is the policy now.

A REPUBLICAN PREDICTION.

That erudite and trust-controlled Re-
publican purveyor of news, the New
York Sun. in late issue says:
1.-The Sun Graves permission to pre-
sent its humble service to the supreme
powers at Oyster Bay, to Messrs. Plat
and Depew, to the new and austere
hierarchy of Odell and Associates. to
one Frank Wayland Higgins, the puta-
tive Governor of the State of New
York. and to all the sober-minded and
self-respecting Republicans to whose
confidence it can appeal, and with al
Difference and respect submits:
1.-The next Governor of the State OF
New York will be Democrat.
THE next Governor of the State OF
New York will be the next President
of the United States.
Yet after all the Sun may be mistaken
and the next governor of New York
may not be the next president of the
United States. But its prediction shows
the Democratic trend of public opinion
and that even Republicans see the prob
able downfall Of the party OF trusts,
protection. graft and scandals.

JUSTICE BREWERS OPINION.

According to Justice Brewer, Wash
ington is the great lobby camp of the
world. More legislation has been
thrust upon Congress than il can attend
to. and the consequence is that the
Government has become general dis
pensary. "The Federal Government is
Efficient" he says; but there are
things greater than mere efficiency,
namely. the protection Of the individual
and the upbuilding Of his sense Of indi.
vidual responsibility" These greater
things are lacking under our present
system. 1T is not how much the in
dividual will willingly give to the coun-
try, but how much the nation coulc
take from him.
