Alexander X, Mcclure.

Although he had retired from active
journalistic work for eight years, Col.
Alexander *. Mcclure, for more than
quarter of a century one of the lead
ing figures in the American field of news
paper publication, remained to the time
OF his last illness. which ended yesterday
with his death, an influence for good in
his community. He had always wrought
for the attainment of the higher ideals
Of government. He believed that polti-
cal parties were necessary in the man.
agement of public affairs. but he threw
his influence always for the public well
fare as against the selfish interests of
politicians. He was Independent in spirit
and did not hesitate to rebuke his politi-
cal associates when, in his judgment, the
occasion demanded. He entered the field
of active metropolitan Journalism COM
paratively late in life, but demonstrated
a marked talent for the career, producing
a newspaper which was widely recognized
as an admirable exponent of the best
principles of government and always en-
listed in the fight for betterment. 1t has
now been absorbed into another organi-
cation and thus Col Mcclure has passed
leaving behind him only the record Of a
finished work which eloquently attests to
his courage, his high concept of citizen
ship and his skill journalistic leader

Mr.. MacVeaah on the Tariff.

This is from the press report of the
address delivered by Secretary MacNeagh
before the Chicago Commercial Club Sat-
urday night
Upon the question Of the tariff Mr..
MacVeaxh predicted that the revision
would be such that the people would ac-
cert The main point was to satisfy
those of the middle west But If they
are not made satisfied then the tariff
question will. unfortunately not be out
Of the way. and We will not have rest.
and we will not have a clear field for
currency reform.
The demand for tariff revision. he in
sisted. was not for a radical and not
for an impracticable reduction because
everybody understood that the republican
party stood for and would continue to
stand for protection.
What the people expect he con-
tended. is what the protectionist repub-
lican party promised in its last years
platform. rs interpreted by its candidate
for the presidency. and while it is talking
sion expected Is not revision down. II
would be equally futile to say that the
revision down was promised 10 be revi
sion down and out.
Revision down, but not revision dowr
and out The case has not been more
happily put by anybody. II is well sum
med up in that one sentence
No republican revisionist has at any
time asked for lowering of duties to the
extent of injuring American interests
Mr. Mckinley gave the cue at Buffalo
in 1901 Observing. as he had done. the
success Of the Dingley law. and tha
un1er II new conditions had been created
he proposed lower duties only where in
vestigation showed they could be made
without injury He had lost none OF hi:
faith In protection. On the contrary. 4

What he had IN mind was readtust

ment of the schedules so as to make the
application OF protection more just and
symmetrical For as student of the
policy he well understood that any abuse
Of it worked to its injury
The standpatters. finding themselves
in straits, asserted that a lowering
OF any of the Dingley schedules Wouia
be an attack on protection Hence
their cry of hold the fort They pre-
tended to see in all republican revi-
sionists free traders in disguise.
Had Mr.. Mckinley lived we should
probably not have witnessed any such
contest as the one now drawing to a
close. 1t would not have been possible,
or advisable If possible. TO tag him
with the title of free trader in disguise.
He could read his title clear as a pro-
tectionst against all imputations or In
nuendoes. He had fought the good
fight for years. part of the time leading
the hosts of protection. He was now
President. In his second term as a win
ner on the protection issue. He mad
twice met Mr. Bryan and overthrown
him by opposing protection to free
silver. To have challenged his knowl-
edSe OF tue SubJect, VI HIS Sood Iaith'
would have been disastrous to the
challengers.
Mr.. Mckinley's death created a diff,
ficult situation for the republican re-
visionists. They lacked a leader. Mr..
Roosevelt. who should have accepted,
and for time thought of doing so, de-
clined the office. This encouraged Mr..
Hanna to rally the opposition. and he
did SO under the old sporting phrase of
stand pat" AT last public sentiment
forced the issue. and revision won. But
revision never meant. and does not now
mean. protection down and out.

Abdul Hamid's Fears.

| Dispatches from Turkey bring corroh-
oration of the tales which have been
| told for years past regarding the fears
| of Abdul Hamid. ex-sultan. for his life.
| These stories have circulated throughout
| Europe and America. generally orisinat-
| ing with some former palace official suffer
| ing banshment. They all bore upon the
| state of terror in which the monarch
lived, his dread of assassination. his eX-
| traordinary precautions to prevent treach-
| cry and his remarkable personal familiar
| ity with firearms, in the use of which
he had become an expert. Since his depo-
siton an examination of the Yidiz Kiosk
has revealed an even more amazing state
| of dread on the sultan's part. He feared
not only for his life. but for his treasure.
His safes were fitted with hidden pis-
tolls. to be dischargd into the person of
any one venturing to open them without
authority. Dummy effigies of the ruler
were kept in stock to permit the pre-
tense of presence in certain part of
the palace. obviously to draw the fire
Of assassins. Rooms were found with
traps through which the unWary intruder
might be plunged into knife-studded pits.
All sorts of diabolical devices to punish
offenders and to thwart plotters against
the sultan's life were disclosed.
If Abdul Hamid preserved all the works
on guns, poisons, tortures and other life
taking devices which he is accredited
with having procured and read, he must
have left behind him in Constantnople an
unparalleled library of diabolisn and vio-
lence. 1t has been asserted that he had
agents abroad instructed to send him ev-
erything printed in the line of criminology
and research into the methods of the
ancient inquisitions. He had a distinctly
barbaric love of killing, having himself ii
is declared, slain numerous palace at
tendants and slaves in moments of pas
sion and fear. 1t is not. in the light of
the known facts regarding him, unjust
to believe that he took delight in the
details of the occasional massacres of his
Christian subjects, whom he regarded
with fanatical hatred. 1t is known that
he would grant prompt promotion to an
officer who managed a punitive eXpedi
ton in the Balkans with bloody success
This is the man who for years ma
neuvered successfully against the powers
of Europe. who defed the highest princi-
plies of humanity, who lied and doubled
and betrayed and broke promises and
maintain himself in the face of rec
ord of cruelty which would have cost the
monarch of any one of the Christian
nations his throne. 1t remained for the
Turks themselves to pull him down and
expose his crimes and his meanness to
the world. These tales brought from Con
stantinople by the cables constitute in
effect an indictment of the governments
which so long permitted Turkey to be
ruled by this savage

Enemies of the Negro.

From the New York Sun.
1t is perfectly we'll understood in
Georgia, and for that matter Throughout,
the southern states, but does not seem to
have dawned yet upon the conscious
ness of the outer world that all tina,
is best among the whites favors the idea
of the negro firemen, and all that is mos,
shiftless and irresponsible and insensate
is on the other side. The negro stands
today very much where he stood when
slave before the civil war. His friends
and sympathizers then were of the class
to which his owners belonged. His friends
and sympathizers today are the descend
ants of those owners and their social
congeners, whereby we mean the great
mass OF the cultivated, together with the
land holders and the taxpayers. The
negroS enemies before the war were
the crackers, the sand hillers and the
wool hatters who were treated as less
important than a we'll fed slave negro
and resented it accordingly. His enemies
today are the descendants of those an
cient antagonists.

This decision reverses the policy of the

The Growth of Lynching.

few nights ago a mob at Frankfort
Ky. overpowered the jailer. dragged
negro prisoner from his cell and hanged
him Gov. Wilson was aroused from sleeT
after the event and asked what he was
going to do about it. He has since done
all within his pouer-denounced the crime
and its perpetrators and asked the prop
er authorities to hestir themselves TO
bring the guilty TO justice

II is this sort of thing that brings home
10 us how firmly rooted in our life has
become the lynching habit. Men who
mock the law in this fashion no longer
confine their operations to lonely roads
or remote villages, but invade state capi-
tails and transact their bloody business
within earshot of the highest officials.
But these two cases are not as appall-
ing as two others that may be cited. 1t

in sight OF the tomb of Abraham Lin

enacted In those cases the innocent suf-

The excitement that followed soon sub

all was quiet again
II may be we'll that n1obs are now no
respecters of localities; that state cap
ital is no more in their eyes than Po
dunk: that a governors presence is of
no more consequence than that of a
local loafer. This. if anything can. will
bring the country to realization of just
where We are; of what should be done
TO insure the supremacy of the law and
respect for the constituted authorities.
We are all familiar with that famous
English line: When the peasant is no
longer safe in his hut, the lord is no
longer safe in his castle. The mob spirit.
if unchecked. grows; and with US it has
grown rapidly. Guilty and innocent alike
are now at its mercy. 1t should be men,

had shot a man in a fight. was certain
of trial. and that the victim at Talla-
hassee had been tried and convicted, and
was soon to be executed by law. for
murder. In both cases the mob set the
!. aside, and for the moment installed
anarchy And in the Florida capital
fifteen men did the business. Why not
half the number? What could have been
easier than the job performed?
