or of the conditions of their present prosperity as against socialism.
 In considering the efficiency of democratic institutions we must re- member the millions of immigrants who have come to us. Americans ac- quired habits of self-control and poEti- cal capacity from several centuries of in the American col~ onies and in the United States down to the middle of the nineteenth cen- tury, and from many centuries of poli~ tical growth in England before tho colonization of America. The vast mass of our immigrants, however, have come from countries in which there was but little political training or development among the people. Since 1850 over twenty-one million inl- migrants have entered the United States. Most of these have come with the inherited tendencies, the traditions and the acquired habits of hopeless submission to a superior external power, or of violent struggle against it, and with little, if any, preparation either of habit or understanding, for the performance of duties of govern ment themselves; and they have had to be educated in mind and in char acter for eslf-government.

There is occasionally undue excite ment; but it is temporary, and when ever it is seen to approach the verge of destructive action it is promptly calm ed and restrained by the sober judg- ment of the people.
 Some workingmen's associations hold meetings where violent speeches are made and carry red flags in pro- sessions; but so far, whenever 8 square issue is raised among any great and widespread body of laboring men between anarchy and socialism on one side and the principles which underlie the American social and industrial system on the other, the decision is in favor of good Americanism. The sec- retary of commerce and labor informs me that within the last dozen years the percentage of socialists in the la bor organizations of the United States has decreased from about thirty-three per cent. to about eight per cent, l do not know to what extent this has been by change within the labor or ganizations, or to what extent by sep aration of socialists from the organ izations. However it has come about it indicates that so far the sober judg- ment of the great mass of the wage workers of the United States is in fav-

which the old and simple rules design ed to prevent expressing, forestalling and regarding in the English rural community are quite inadequate; and new laws and new agencies for their enforcement are necessary to accom- plish the same results.
 On the other hand, labor organiza- tions, designed for the just purpose of securing fair treatment as to em- ployment, wages, and hours and con- ditions of work, are on their part en- deayoring to put up prices, restrict production, and drive out competition by stringent rules which prohibit any member from doing more than a speci- fled amount of work each day under penalty of expulsion, and which pro- hibit the employment of anyone not member of the union under penalty Iof a strike.
 All of these things are but incidents of the process of adjustment in the di- vision of the new wealth. some of them come from attempts to get what is fair and some of them from at tempts to get more than Is fair Our popular government is dealing with them assiduously by awakened pub lie opinion gradually crystallizing into laws adapted to meet the new condi- tions. The things which are happen ing and the necessity for continual re- form of law and administration argue no decline in business morality and no inadequacy of our political system to continue it's efficacy and it's improve ment.

 It would not be possible now to elect such a man as Aaron Burr vlce-pres- ident of tho United States; or to leave in command of the army man like Wilkinson, who was known to be In receipt of an annual payment of two thousand dollars from Spain while we were in controversy with that country over the possession of Florida, and whose friends defended him by the as- sertion that while he took the money he did not mean to give Spain any equivalent for it.
 Such a condition of affairs as pre- vailed in our congress at the time of the Credit Mobilier business could not exist now. The atmosphere which existed in Washington at that time made it possible for a group of men, most distinguished and powerful among the public servants of the na- ton, to purchase or accept gifts of se- curities of corporations upon whose interests they were to vote in one or the other house of congress. The whole tone of the public service was such that their moral vision was ob- scured. The same men to-day would find 1t impossible to do what they did then, because there is a clearer air and a better recognized standard of off, teal morality. The conditions which made 1t possible for the unfortunate Belknap, as secretary of war, to sell appointments, and for the trusted of- flcial aides of the President to be smirched by the whisky frauds of Grants second administration, hap oily no longer exist, and no longer can exist.
 The objectionable railroad practices which are now so widely and justly condemned, and which furnish so fer tile source of political discussion, are not new practices; they are old practices which formerly passed sub silencio. The railroad rebates which are now forbidden by law, and for which great corporations are being in- dicted and convicted, are merely form of the discriminatory rates which once prevailed without objection. Thirty years ago all railroads gave special rates to shippers. That was the existing form of competition, and competition not only was permitted, but it was enjoined by law, and any attempt to restrain it was, as it now is, unlawful. It was by giving spe- cial rates that railroad companies in- duced petople to build factories and packing houses and elevators and a great variety of other business estab- iishments along the lines of their

TWO LYNCHED
 IN GEORGIA Membgrs of Negro Assail- ants Family Victims
 of Mob. WHITES ATTACK HOUSE Sheriff Hides Prisoners to Prevent Them Meeting
 Same Fate.
WHITES ATTACK HOUSE

ReidsviIle, Ga, May 1.-Two negroes were lynched and four other persons are dead and six others injured, as the net result of an attempted criminal as- sault made last night on Mrs. Laura Moore, white, widow about six miles from here, by Elem Padget, a negro. Two of the Padget family are the ones lynched and the death or injury of the others followed the efforts of a posse to capture Padget. It is reported that the mob is on its way here and the sheriff has moved the other prisoners to a place which he will not reveal.
 News of the attempted assault arous- ed the citizens who immediately went to the home of the negro's father. He assured the crowd that his son was not in the house and invited the posse to search, As they approached the house Elem Padget fired on the crowd, killing a white man named Hare and wounding four others. The crowd fired a volley into the house, killing the old negro Padget and two of his daughters, and wounding two of his sons, one of whom was rleHl Fduset' lHo HAeii wanted.
 After the cooler heads had left the scene of the killing, the hotheaded ele- ment employed young man to take Padget's wife and one of the Padget boys who was shot through the lungs, to Reidsville jail, but later the party followed and took the prisoners from the young man in charge and riddled them with bullets. It is stated that crowd of about 300 started for Reids- vile to force the jail and lynch the other Padget boy who had been taken there by deputy sheriff.
 Those involved in the affair are in- fuential citizens. Further trouble is feared

WILL DROP IRISH BILL.
Government Can Go No Further With
 out Cabinet Dlssention.

London, May H.-The nationalist convention at Dublin having rejected MT, Birrells Irish bill it is understood that the government will drop it for this session at least, and proceed with the other reforms which it's liberal sup porters are urging, and with which the sessional programme is crowded. That the government cannot grant any wider measure of self-government to Ireland without causing dissention in the cabinet is not denied, so there is no other course to adopt than shelving the bill, which is represented to be the limit to which the anti-home rule liber- als would consent to go, MT. Red mond's action in moving the rejection of the measure, although anticipated in some quarters generally caused sur prise as it is understood that he had agreed, after 8 conference with his coll leagues, to accept what the government offered, as a partial concession to the demand of Ireland.
