WOULDN'T THIS JAR YOU?


The Lincoln Evening News, which
overlooked and failed to mention the
Labor Temple meeting last Tuesday
night, did not fail to see and clip the
following grapevine" telegram from
one of it's exchanges:
"sAN FRANCISCO, JUNE 26. Re-
suItant upon the recent graft expose is
apparent the complete Generalization
of the union labor party. With schmitz
a convict; Abe Ruef in Jail; sixteen
supervisors all elected on the labor
ticket, and Chief of Police Dinan, a
Sehmitz appointee, under indictment,
the recrudeseenee Of the party seems
impossible"
Wouldn't that jar you?
Because some of it's leaders be-
trayed their trust the union labor
party is as good as dead!
The News is republican news
paper, and perhaps it will explain, a
few things. When the whisky ring
scandals implicated lot of republi-
can leaders, sending a secretary of
war into disgrace and smirching scores
of prominent republicans, did any
newspaper have the hardihood to de-
anyclare 1.-The recrudescence of the re-
publican party is impossible?" Did any
newspaper declare the "recrudescence
of the republican party impossible"
when credit mobilier smirched the
reputation of James G. Blaine, Oak
Ames, and others, and came near
wrecking the future of James A. Gar
field? When the awful graft scandals
developed in Philadelphia, the worst
gang ruled city in the United States,
did the fact that the gang was made
up wholly of crooked republican Of
fice-holders and their supporters lead
any newspaper to declare that the re
crudescence of the republican party
is impossible" in Philadelphia?
Heaven knows that conditions in
San Francisco were bad enough, but
the San Francisco grafters were worse
than the republican grafters in Grants
time or the republican grafters in
Philadelphia have been for thirty
years?
Has the repeated exposures of mu-
nicipal corruption in New York City
under the reign of Tammy prevented
the 'recrudescence of the democratic
party?'
What about republican graft in Min
neapolis few years ago? A mayor
sent to the penitentiary and other city
officials disgraced forever-all repub-
licans. Did that prevent the re
crudescence of the republican party"
in Minneapolis?
Did the corrupt deal which forced
the infamous Allen laws through the
republican legislature of Illinois pre-
vent the "recrudescence of the republi-
can party in Illinois?
Every union man regrets the dis
grace cast upon union labor by the
San Francisco grafters, but the dis
grace did not prevent union men from
trying again. Every upward move
ment has been retarded by thieves
and hypocrites. The Nazarene found
one black sheep in the twelve He Sc
lected to help Him. Organized labor
has had no such proportion of thieves
and traitors as one in twelve
Organized labor makes no excuses
for it's traitors. That is left to repub-
lican newspapers like the News, which
apologies for republican crooks, and
to democratic organs, which apologize
for democratic crooks.
But the intimation that the expo
sure of graft among the men elected
on labor ticket will prevent the re-
crudescence of the labor party is ridic-
ulous. The wish is father to the
thought.
