POLITICAL PRINCIPLE INVOLVED IN ELECTION.

A correspondent writing to the Chi cago Tribune, one of the leading re- publican papers in the country, makes the wonderful announcement that this presidential election is devoid of is sues which have been able to attract the attention of the voters. The same correspondent takes the position that state issues are oveI shadowing the na- tional contest in the large and doubt ful republican states.
 We are inclined to the belief that this correspondent is devoting his time during the last days of the cam paign to fixing a soft place for the republican party to fall on November 3rd.
 If ever there were important is sues confronting the American people they are now present The success of the republican party next week will mean that the country is to continue under the same rule which has con trolled almost continually since the civil war; it will mean that trusts will grow bigger and more numerous; 1t will mean that congress will con tinue to stand pat" and that any re- vision of the protective tariff will be harmless to the moaopolistic manu- lecturers of the country; it will mean the establishment of the precedent that one president may by the power of the federal officehclders select his successor; it will nNean hat the dem ocratic proposition tc have the banks of the country give the same guaran- ty to individual depositors for their money as is given the government, states and counties will be refused passage; it will mean that the cleo ton of United States senators will continue in the old way and the peo- pie denied the rigat 10 choose for themselves who will have to serve them in that body; ir will mean that the extravaganza which resulted in the appropriation of a billion dollars for the expense Of the government for one year will be continued; It will mean that the oentralization or power in the general government will go on until at not far distant day there will be no such thing as home rule by the people os fhe states.
 These are few of the important principles involved in this election and upon which the people are called upon to pass judgment. Republican policies have resulted in the wealth Of the country being gathered by a few pets Of the government and the con tinuation of this party in power will resuit fin the same system of favcrit- ism for those who furnish the cam paign funds for the republican party.

Good Fish Salad,

Soak two big salt herring in water over night Then clean fish of all bones and skin and chop fine. Chop six or seven boiled potatoes and five boiled red beets and two big onions. Mix all together with pepper and enough vinegar to soften the mixture. Press hard in molds and when shaped turn out on flat plate. Chop the whites and yolks of three hard boiled eggs separately. Then decorate the top with alternate rows of whites, yolks and beets.

SOUTHERN GENTLEMEN.

In an interesting editorial criticism of the
views which The Tribune recently expressed
about Southern manners The Louisville Cour-
ier-Journal" makes several true and agreeable
statements concerning the status OF swash-
bucklers and tropical orators in the South, but
incidentally misses our main contention. After
Congressman Heflin had shot two negroes in
controversy on a Washington streetcar The
Tribune observed with satisfaction that he re-
ceived little sympathy from Southern news
papers. This and sundry other similar oc-
currences of recent date tempted us to remark
the advent of a new type of Southern gentle
man, which seems to have vexed Colonel Wat
terson, apparently because of the specious I'M
plcations that all old types of Southern gen
tlemen belong to the category of undesirable
citizens and that 1.-The gentleman bearded like
"a pard and full of strange Oaths and odors of
familiar spirits and mint leaves, weighted
down with pocket artillery and with both eyes
peeled for an opportunity to employ lead, IS
typical Southerner. But what we said carried
no such unjust insinuations and we protest
against being used as text for the moral that
1.-The North has always made the mistake of
accepting the creation OF the humorists, with
'all of his trimmings, the Southerner or
fact and has mistaken the publicity seeking
professional Southerner' for the Southern
gentleman"
We saw as we said before, that the open criti-
csm of what The COurier-JOurnaI' describes
as the blatherskite exercising his lungs and
exploiting his ignorance in Congress-, the sud
den enthusiasm for prohibition, the growing
distaste for lynching parties and the unpopu-
Iarity Of the Kentucky night riders prove be-
yond doubt the advent of new type of South
ern gentleman The new Southern gentleman,
it pleases US TO fancy, is like the rarer type or
the old Southern gentleman, so far as con-
vlctions are concerned. But he differs from his
elder in matters of practice Our critic informs
us and correctly too, that the obnoxious prac-
tices Of the "fre-eaters' have never been fash
ionable in aristocratic Southern society; but
it might have been added that this same so
ciety seemed content for many years to let
cold-blooded murder, family feuds, excessive
drinking brutality to negroes braggadocio and
similar practices remain simply "unfashion-
able" At this distance it appears TO us that
the new type of Southern gentleman is not
! content with stigmatizng such displays as un-
| fashionable but is getting out and hustllnS
| in various ways to hinder the gentlemen VINO
think them fashionable. He is slowly running
the flannel mouth" out of politics He is dis
charging from his employ the human whskey
filter He is compelling lawmakers to provide
pOlice forces adequate TO cope with the fearful
| hvsterfa of Southern mobs. But when we call
this new type we do not mean that there
have not always been in the South high minded
patriots who have struggled to make the world
! SQUARE with their sound ideals. We only say
| that such men are becoming typical of the
| South And we hope Colonel Watterson cannot
prove us wrong

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

Higher prices were attained in the security
market last week than at any time since the
collapse last year. with the exception OF few
days about the middle OF January, and trading
at times reached fair degree of activity. Yet
there was no definite for the numerous
evidences of improvement It Is true that the
Erie notes were financed, but II was hardly likely
that great railway system would be allowed
to go into the hands of a receiver because So,
600 900 could not be raised, especially in view of
the development of it's suburban traffic that
not fail to follow the improved service when the
road is connected with the tunnel under the
Hudson River. Much said of the favor
able crop prospects and the easy money market
but these factors almost much in evil
dence a month earlier, when the sixty most
active railway stocks averaged s4 a share lower
and sales were few and far between. It'd true
that fewer freight cars idle but the in
dustria situation was less satisfactory in many
respects, and the only broadening of outside in
terest enanated from the investment of April
dividends. Yet prices rose whether by manipu-
lation or otherwise. and the market value of
membership In the Stock Exchange advanced
about $4,000 further.
Money accumulates in the banks rejecting the
diminished volume OF trade and the contraction
of borrowing in all channels. Interior banks en-
large their balances at this centre, and institu-
tions that allow per cent on these funds can
not put the money out on call without a loss
while short term loans bring only per cent or
less. The Treasury Is also paying out more
cash than It takes in, the deficit thus far in
April being over s4.OO000o. In view OF this fact
and the position of the exchange market, it is
evident that the Secretary would not only make
proper provision for good balance and pre-
pare for ,roD moving demands by Uithdra u-Inry
government deposits. but would prevent gold
from going abroad in the face of an abnOrmally
favorable balance on merchandise account. Gross
gold stocks in the Treasury rise to a new high
record each day, and the worlds supply was in
creased $4,000 ounces in March by Transvaal
mines alone, Rand production exceeding all
previous monthly records, except December 1907.
