SHAW, THE SOUTH AND
POLITICS.

Former Secretary Shaw says
that it is easy to make speeches III
the South because the people III
this section are 50 ignorant OF pol
tics. This is good coming from
an Iowa country banker. who was
born in Vermont. The south has
shown the nation thing or two
: in the way Of politics in the
south and still has some polite
ians that are able TO give lessons
to the politicians Of the north on
the way in which politics are
played. But it is probable that
the former secretary did MT
make his whole meaning PLAN.
The south is ignorant of politics
Of the machine tvpe, the kind that
are played in the circles in which
the secretary moves.
The south has none of the pol
tics. a sample Of which has been
given in New York recently. and
in Illinois. and in Ohio. and IN
PENNSYLVANIA and thank God Tor
it. 1t has no politicians whom
stripes would adorn much more fit
tingly than the toga Of statesmen,
nor do its county politicians have
to visit Schnectady county, New
York. within the week. where one
of them was found guilty and
sentenced to prison. This brand
of politics the south is ignorant
Of, and perhaps that IS the rea-
son the secretary docs not teel
at home in the south and
thinks that its people are ignorant
Of politics.
The secretary said that it was
easy to make political speech in
the south because the people are
so ignorant that they believe
everything a speaker says. He
forgets that when he comes south
he is regarded as a guest. and that
the men of the south are gentle
men. with too much politeness in
their makeup to give guest the
lie under their own ronf. so to
speak. He does not take into con
sideration that the listening to his
speeches does not necessarily car
ry with it belief in them. but rath-
err shows the restraint of good
breeding in not openly accusing
him of falsifying
Is it not a fact that the secre-
tary knows little Of politics in
their highest relation? Gradual
ing from the crossroads politics of
Iowa to secretary Of the treasury.
he at once became a victim of the
political wiles of Wall street and
was plant tool of the New York
bankers all through his term. and
was rewarded by being taken to
their bosom with a good fat place
in a city bank. This is not poll
tics in its highest sense. but it is
politics as is understood in some
circles of the north. and the kind
that the south does not stoop to.
