DEMOCRACY'S INNING.

The world is divided into two
elasses-those who are anxious to see
the world move forward and the con
dition Of mankind improved and thos,
who hesitate to change existing con-
ditiors, The former are liberals, the
latter are "standpatters."
For many years the democratic
party has been the liberal party OF
the United States; the republican
party the standpat brigade.
The democratic party stands for re-
vising the tariff in the interests of
the people; for the direct election of
senators: for a banking law that will
BE- highly beneficial to the mass of the
people and for other meritorious re-
forms. The republican party opposes
all of these just propositions and in
lieu Of them offers a few weak ex-
cuses for reform in hopes Of catching
votes.
In the natural order of things the
liberal party should dominate in this
country, because the United States is
a nation of progressive people. But
the democratic party has been kept
out Of power because Of three things
prejudice growing out Of the civil
war: the fact that the economic con-
ditions Of the country CHANGED to be
out Of order when the last democrat
ic administration was in power, and
because powerful interests have
fought the democratic party because
under republican rule they are prof
iting immensely, but at the expense
Of the rest Of the country.
But the time has arrived for a
change. The civil war is over; the
panic last year proved that economic
Disturbances occur independently Of
political conditions and the people
have awakened to the iniquity Of the
trusts.
At'the present time heavy tide IS
running towards liberalism and the
liberal leader. william ]. Bryan.

spirit as now prevails in this city.
Conditions are ripe for local develop
ment There are many things that
are going to make this town go ahead
in the near future. But towns do not
grow themselves. They are built.
Because the local business men had
not been in action for some time 1t
was not known exactly what they
would do. There were some who
feared that because OF little sore
spots and petty jealousles the woolen
mill movement would fail But yes
ierday's meeting showed that this
fear was groundess.
Pendleton's business men are still
of the fighting calibre-they are still
Pendletonians.

PENDLETONLANS.

II there are any who fear that the
Pendleton spirit is dead and that the
business men Of the town are not
ready TO work and fight for the up
building of the town they are deceiv-
ed.
At the wooden mill meeting at the
Commercial association yesterday af-
ternoon it was shown that the fire
Ct town patriotism burns strong and
bright. At the meeting dozen men,
bankers, merchants and property
owners laid aside all petty differen-
ces and Joined hands in the common
cause of saving the woolen mill. They
will succeed because when united as
they are at present these men COM
pose a bunch that Is hard 10 beat.

upon the spirit that her business men
are showing. It is the spirit that
makes towns grow and It Is going to
produce a new Pendleton.

THE HONIING.

When my waywar1 boy came back
From his reckless roaming,
With his plumage ruth and wrack,
Like a spent bird homing.
First I looked. and then I smiled,
Then we clung together;
He was still my child, my child,
Love was still tether
Ne'er a word, reproach I said,
Asked not what had kept him;
only when he lay in bed
Then Gn mind l wept him.
Wept the wounds upon him wrought
Those long years bequeathlng'
Thrice that night his threshold
sought.
Watchful Of his breathing.
Listening. 'twixt times afraid
Lest he be some other
Thanking God, whose mercy made
Ne 10 be his mother.

ASIATIC MORALS.

Speaking of one Of the many re-
cent scandals growing out of the
American possessions in the orient,
the ST. Louis Post-Dlspatch said:
When the latest army scandal in
wolves the family affairs of an Amer
lean "vice-presidential family" the
least said about it as a family affair
.is soonest mended, no doubt, But the
country must take notice when the
family itself explains its beginning as
the result of service in the Philip
pines
so we have it once more 1t is
another case Of Asiatic morals, which
are as catching as "Asiatic cholera"
II not more so.
when we go into the work of up
lifting inferior races somewhere east
OF Suez, where there amt no deca-
logue.' the work demands volunteers
and among the volunteers the picked
men and women who are sure they
are proof against the worst in the
strength of the highest and most un-
selfish motives. For all the rest, GO
ing where there 'ain't no decalogue
means the best possible opportunity
to find the worst and bring it home
with them.
I'VE need not think that Aslatics
are degraded to account for this, but
the sort of moral restraint they have
is so different from ours, that when
we send any sort of a miscellaneous
collection of Americans to live under
Asiatic influences, It means practical
ly that for them the limit is Off
They may easily lose the restraints of
American morals, and we know only
too we'll that they despise those Of
Asia"
The white race never did mingle
with an inferior race without degre
dation. 1t never will. Let us keep
America for the Americans ami leave
Asia to the Asiatics.

Revision of School System.

Complete revision of the common
school system of Kentucky is provided
in bill which was to have been intro
duced in the House Monday morning
by ]. A. Sullivan, of Madison county,

livan has prepared the bill carefully,
and it has been approved by. the educa-
tionaI interests of the State, r.. N.
Roark, of the State Normal School at
Richmond, being especially interested
in the bill and its preparation. The
same bill was introduced in the Senate
by Senator Watkins.
Women suffrage, limited to school
matters, is provided in the bill, butFaD
educational qualification is included
which will exclude all the undesirable
class of women and put the votes only
in the hands of those women who are
qualified for the right. The principal
change in the bill applies Ito thelgov-
eminent of common schools. Instead
of three trustees in each school dis
trict, one trustee is elected in each dis
trict. and these trustees, in each mag
isterial district, meet and elect chair

ton and employ the teachers. The
County School Superintendent is chair
man of the County Board by virtue
of his Office.
