The unsuccessful attempt made by

with the successes it has met else

the United States. No Central Ameri-

NATIONAL HONOR TO TILDEN
Is PROPOSED.

A statue of Samuel J. Tilden would

Tilden never occupied any Federal Of

become an honored tenant of the
White House is ,the belief Of many. if
not all, orthodox, Democrats. and viii
be, no doubt, as long as the Demo
cratic party endures.
But If exceptions are to be made
a statue OF Tilden would be. perhaps.
the best with which 10 start. The
patriotism Of Tnden shown in the
raging days that followed the cleo
ton of 1876 alone deserves some per
petual, recognition.
The Democrats well regard Tilden
as a, great party Ieader-great not
only in his political sagaeitv. but In
his moral character. Reformers in
general pay tribute TO him as one OF
the heroic refOrmers. for as cover. or

REALISSUE IN LORINIER SFNA-
TORIAL sc ANDAL.

with the trial of the first alleged
Senatorial briber well under way in
Chicago, the hand Of the accused group
of politicians is displayed and an in
sight given into their methods of de-
Tense. Broadly speaking. the attitude
of Representative Lee O'Neil Browne
the defendant, who is charged with hay
ing paid Representative Charles A
White $1,000 for his vote for Lorimer
is that White is a rascal, a dead-beat
q liar, and an an-around worthless
fellow, and that before making public
his bribery charges he tried to black
mail Browne and Senator Lorimer
Great emphasis is also laid on the dis
covery that the Chicago Tribune paid
White $3.50 for his confession
All of which seems. TO an outsider, TO
be beside the mark. Brownies lawyers
numbering a dozen, by the way
have succeeded in making a pretty
good case against the character and
reputation of White. They have pro-
duced letters which White wrote TO
Browne and Lorimer. telling OF the
expose he was about to make, and init
mating that it might be to their In
terests to intervene. According to
Whites letters ne importuned Browne
for money. and practically demanded
that Browne and Lorimer get him a
good political Job. Beneath the surface
the letters show that the writer felt
he had a claim to recognition and pro-
posed to insist on it. Incidentally,
Brownies letters to White showed that
Browne had been lending White money
and trying to get him a political ap-
pointment, thus recognizing that White
had some sort of a claim on the
machine.
Il seems to have been q case where
one member of a gang that was en-
gagged in shady transactions got mad
because he didn't receive better treat
ment and then used his knowledge Of
the ring for his personal profit.
This, however, does not affect the
underlying issue-the question whether
money was used to buy votes for Sen
ator Lorimer, and, if so. who supplied
it. it can hardly be expected that a
man who would take a bride, as White
SAYS ,he did. would be a man Of ster-
ling worth. whose character and repu-
tation were above criticism. In fact,
in such business political scandals as
that unearthed in Chicago it is almost
always guilty person who, for re-
yenge or profit or hope of immunity,
turns on the other fellows and gives
up the information that VIII convict
them
A man like White is not one who
can be admired. The public may even
condemn him for going back on his
fellows. but this has nothing to do
with the guilt or innocence Of the men
whom he accuses. The authorities
should, and viii, use White, despicable
as he may be, as the instrument of
fate which viii help them get their
hands on the principals who directed
the bribery campaign from above him.

county. at the age OF 81 years. The
news Of the death of this former local
man will bring a host OF memories to
all the older surviving settlers in this
vicinity, to whom Jackson Taylor was
well known. Mr.. Taylor was born in
1919. and in 1885 he came to Rock Is
land, where in 1S49 he was married.
He remained in this county until 1856,
when he went to Buffalo, where he had
since resided. For 20 years he was
postmaster there and for many more
years was hotel keeper, continuing in
active management of the tavern until
almost the very day of his death, Sat
urday morning, Feb. 26. The second
wife survives. There are no children.
One of the Buffalo. Mimi, papers
speaks highly OF Mr. Taylor, saying
that he always had a helping hand for
all hard up" and weary settlers who
came into the middle west bent on Sc
curing fortunes out of the land. Until
the early part Of the present winter
he was active in business life, his
great vitality staying with him to the
very last.
