Surely Not the Same Haskell |?

1t almost passes belief, and yet we
find it in a newspaper-the New York
Sun-which prides itself on saying, "If
you find it in the Sun, it's so" The
quotation is from a New York banker
He says:
1 found Haskell TO be a man OF very
little ability. and : believe that his
gross ignorance was his worst fault
The Haskell referred TO is the Gov
ernor of Oklahoma, next to Bryan (un-
til yesterday the biggest man in the
Democratic organization, Joint author
with Bryan of the Denver platform, and
treasurer Of the Democratic national
committee.
Can such things be? In truth, we
wander in a perfect wilderness, as
sailed by doubt, attacked by suspi-
cion, overwhelmed by confusion. Thus
our mistrustful eyes have scarcely
gathered the full significance of this
attack when they light upon this state
ment from Edward L. Oppenheim, New
York banker, who also knew Haskell
years ago:
AS to my financial experience, I
have been in business ventures with
Governor Haskell which cost me a
lot Of money. I have nothing 10 say
against him, however. I remember be
Ing a guest in Governor HaskeIIs box
at the big gold Democratic meeting
in Madison Square Garden IN 1896,
where BOurke Cochran and Perry Bel
mont made rafting speeches against
Bryan Mr.. Haskell apparently ap-
proved Of the attacks on Bryan, for
he was on his feet, waving his hat
and cheering almost constantly.
But there are things which viii not
go down Maybe it viii be proved that
Haskell was the man who tried to bride
Monnett with Standard Oil money.
Maybe he did Skin" Wall Street. We
don't think less Of him on that account,
even if they prove it on him. But to
be caught at a meeting of gold Demo-
OcraUs, madly cheering assaults on
Bryant is too much To pass muster
1t must have been some other Haskell.

TO keep in the social and official swim.
The folly comes when poor man tries
TO keep up with his rich colleagues.
1t may be inconvenient and embarrass-
ing to be poor, but it is dishonest and
dishonorable to gain riches as some of
our public men have done and that
kind of dishonesty and dishonor has
come to be fully recognized.
The verdict of the people in their
present mind is severe but just. Here
is a jury that however complaisant
once refuses now to be cajoled or brow
beaten. Yet we must not jump to the
conclusion that all men in public life
are salable or hold out open hands for
corporation brides. Many Senators
