Our editor must have got lost in
one of those sugar beet facrories OF
alfalfa fields as he sent US no edi-
torials this week. Ii these are not
to your liking you may "whip the
editor" when he comes back.
While we do not exactly endorse
the sentiment of the foregoing
paragraph, especially the last sec
ton, We give itspace, in view of
the fact that it was already in
type when we appeared on the
scene. We hope that no one will
take the clause about whipping
the editor VIGOROUSLY, as it is
merely Quo on Bro. Sweetland's

The Democratic Situation

The letter recently written by
WIN j Bryan to the chairman Of
the reception committee in which
he requested that no tainted"
money be accepted by this COM
mittee to defrey the expenses for
the reception to be given in his
honor whenhe arrives from Europe
but that the necessary expenses
should be betrayed by popular sub
scriptions of from 81 to $50, is q
move in the right direction. The
time has come when the people of
the U. S. are demanding to know
the source of gifts to political par
ties and the reasons for their being
donated, for it is we'll known fact
that neither corporations nor pri-
vate individuals spend large sums
of money without expecting some
return for it. Roosevelt and Bryan
recommend futher that the lists
of donations shall be published
and suggests that the same meth
dds be followed in future in polit-
ical campaigns.
While Bryan the logical Demo
cratic candidate for president is
thus advocating absolute frankness
and honestly in these matters,
Thos Taggart, national chairman
of Democratic Committee goes on
with his notorious hot bed OF crime
and robbery at French Lick
Springs in open defiance. of law
and endeavoring by fair means or
foul to keep the nefarious business
as much secret as possible
Should the democratic party re-
tain chairman Taggart in charge of
the cempaign of 1908 with Bryan
as the candidate for president, we
should have the rather unharmon-
ious and amusing spectacle of the
chief of rogues attempting to place
the advocate of honesty and truth
fulness in the presidential chair.
1t seems to be the PROPOSE
ton of the devil as the
preachers councilman" 1t is
manifesting proposition a quest
ion as to whether it shall be Tag
CART and corruption OF Bryan and
civic reform. The future success
or failure Of the democratic party
depends to very great extent on
its action in this matter.

be hard to make the American PEG.

party even trough Bryan be the
candidate. But if the democratic
party cleaned house" by beginn,

will do, it will inspire more conf
denee of the reform measures az

b. made to arrest and try ali persons
who commit crime. There is, there
fore, 10 need of lynch law, and if the

the proper channels, every resource
VIII be adopted to punish the guilty
parties, for thus degrading justice.
our Judges are honest and true, and
speedy trials will be ordered, and there
fore there can be no shadow OF an eX-
cuse for men taking the law into their
own hands, and when they do, they
become themselves law-breakers, put
themselves without the pale OF legal
protection, and must be dealt with as a
mob, and suppressed by Use of needed
force, even though carried to the ut
most extent.
The newspapers with their means OF
| hearing and disseminating the news,
can greatly aid in warning OF danger,
and thus REFRESHING crime. ! ask OF
tbs papers OF the State, daily and
weekly, to publish this address and to
write strong editorials, calling On their
PEOPLE to assist in maintaining the
INV. I have confidence in the people
and the press, the officers both civil
aud military, and therefore call on
them to help me IL my efforts TO MAIN
tain peace and quiet and to forever
prevent such disgraceful scenes as we
have Just passed through, scenes which
reflect on our people, giving us the
name OF law-breakers, which the over
whelming majority OF our people do
not deserve, and injuring our good
State in every sense, materially, educa-
tionaliy and morally.

their physical and moral support, and
Il mortal man can accomplish such an
end, shall and viii enforce the law

OF their pensions.
This movement will be endorsed by
sill the people Of the State, for nowhere

who will say nay against the proper

Let ell the camps in the State take
It up and act in concert with the Buck

pension for the old soldiers.

crs may find employment. both in the
North and the South, especially in
the South. But when this agitation
for taking the negro from the farm
and placing him in the factory shah
have had its fruition where will the
negro skilled labOrer find work? VIII
the captains of industry Of the North
throw open the doors of their great
establishments to him in collaboration
with their white employees. or, III some
instances to their exclusion? Will the
operatives in the coal mines and
sm,lting furTaces and ~factorics OF
Pennsylvania and Ohio and Illinois
and in the cotton mills of Lowell and
Fail River accept him as a cola boFer.
or submit to being displaced by him as
Il cheaper laborer? White men in the
West will not work in collaboration
With the Chinam3n. nor Will they sub
nit to being displaced by him. Will
the white men of the North and
West Collab0rate with the negro?
There are mills and factories in the
South. as we'll as in the North. plent%
of them-and there are going to be
more Of them. But in the main White
men and women are doing the work
of the factories, will they submit

again. are these negro skilled laborers

am profoundly convinced that he can
best work out his destiny Whatever
that is TO be, upon the farm and that
nowhere in the world are the Goa
ditions and environments so favorable
to his development along correct lines
as upon the Southern farm. Here
the number of laborers actually en-
ployed compared With the number
which could be profitably emplovcd
are not only comparatively few but
there IS no crush and scramble for
employment. giving rise to questions
of race competition and preference.
such as we have on the Pacific Coast
between the whites and the Chinese
or in the mines and mills of the North.
Nor is farm life repressive of the best
and strongest qualities in man. as IS
eNemplifiod by the fact that from
hence have come many of the men
who, through history have exerted a
controlling influence in every line Of
human effort. Upon the Southern
farm the negro is constantly sur
rounded and safe guarded by IN
fiuences which tend TO protect him
against the temptations to which his
weak and credulous nature is pecu-
liarlv subject. There he is strength
ened, encouraged and supported by
close daily contact With a SUPERIOR
race. which bears for him a sincere
and genuine friendship and sympathy.
and whom he respects, loves initiates
and sometimes essays to emulate.
Whatever in the way of improve
ments and develonrnent he has
achieved in the past-and it has not
been inconsiderable-h been almost
entirely achieved in these circum-
stances and surroundings Not only
for these reasons, but Think if | had
time and space I could show from
well authenticated statistics that out

physical we'll being of this race t. a
greater degree probably than any
other race of mankind. and that in
