POLITICAL PARTFeS- The Young Man Must Choose Between Them.

Tbe universities nnd colleges and high hcLooIs are ngaln Fending out thousands of younjj men equipped, ns far os educntiou cau arm theui, to fight life's battle. They will enter Into every profession nud business and must struggle for a living wltli the older and more seasoned army that has preceded them. Many of these young men, especially from the law Bchools, will enter upon political ca reers, and all will have to decide upon the political party they will support. Those that are honest and true, and nearly all young men are so until con taminated, wUl naturally turn from corruptlou and grafting, and some at least will strive to correct those terri ble evils that have so vastly dimmed the luster of the party lu power. Fam ily ties and associations naturally bave great Influence In deciding the political course of young men about to 'nnt their first vote. The bias of the teachers of economics has led many to look on but one side of political issues, and hence many young men are very apt to decide their political future without tine Investigation of both sides of the great political questions that di vide the parties. As the Democratic narty has every thing to gain by the investigation and publicity of Its contentious and being the great historic party of the nation, Its principles should be thoroughly scrutinized and given due weight be fore a decision is arrived at. The fundamental doctrine of democ racy is "equal rights to all and special privileges to none." The Democrats believe lu home rule and that every community has the right to decide Its local Issues and the amount 'Of the lo cal taxation, to decide upon municipal ownership and the regulation of the liquor traffic and such other local mat ters as affect the community. All these under Democratic rule are settled as a majority of the legal voters may de cide. The great national questions of the tariff, subsidies to corporations and in dividuals, regulation of railroad rates and control of trusts and combines, the management of the nuances of the country', the rights of capital and la bor, the question of Individualism or socialism, militarism. Imperialism; tax ation without representation, all must be investigated before the young man can fairly decide with whom he will politically ally himself. As government Is the chief agency and adjunct of civilization, it Is entire ly worthless unless it protects life and property and provides libi rty without license.

One of tbe leading newspapers of tbo i jiimry, ret erring to Uie disclosures i;i;ule by Senator Tillman respecting h'.a "conspiracy with tlie president," says of Mr. ltoosevelt that he has been 'ti'ually caught iu tbe trap of his own duplicity and caged there for tbe re gretful ga.e of a niortilieJ nation." Another great newspaper and a Re publican newspaper, too declares that "too much has been made public" iu connection with tbe Tillman exposures "to please those who wish to retain es teem for tbe occupants of honorable positions in tbe public service" and siij"ests that "the public can be best , --.--- - - - , c.-.t.i ntoi tim iiiirnirr or t ir nresi- r - "n .",,,, tl . uuiiim "'" lr performance of its dnVes and non- interference with other brauebes of the ! government" Iu regard to the presl dP.,f denunciation of William E. Chamber, the same paper (the Balti more American) says lu an editorial: "While It Is as patriotic to assume that the executive Is always right and every one else wrong, It would seem to be the part of wisdom not to strain that sentiment too much. Heretofore there have been some wise and virtuous peo ple In tbe land besides the presidents, and it is possible that there are still a few scattered over the country." The president has shown himself to be a blunderer, if no worse, and It is clear from such expressions of public opinion as we have quoted that he has at last forfeited the. confidence and re spect of Republicans and Democrats alike. It is evident, moreover, that even while dealing with him senators Iibto. lieen oblleed to use the same pre cautions against fraud and duplicity which prudent meu use In dealing wli known tricksters uy securing uocu lnentary evidence of the nature of Oe transactions In anticipation of bad faith. This documentary evidence sus tains the charge of duplicity made by sfeaator Tillman, which is Iu substance that Roosevelt with the design of ap pearing to be the real author of rate legislation secretly trafficked at the same time with both factions of the Republicans and with the Democrats and that after recelvlug the support of the latter he betrayed them and his Republican.. allies and sought to de ceive fEe country by means of false ac cusations against William E. Chandler, whom he had authorized to treat In his behair with Senators Bailey and Till man. Fortunate indeed it was for Till man and Bailey that they used the pre caution uow ascribed also to Republic an senators "lest there should be traps for them." The president says. "There was not the slightest opportunity for any hon est misconception of my attitude." But the evidence shows that there was am ple ground for suspicion, though possi bly the very existence of that well grounded suspicion shows that there was jfijml-B'scGS?60-1-1011 el?r ' nl-8 But th;it. is not all. we make another offer that everybody can get and that is that every worker, who will send ns six sr.bscnptions at one time, accompanied by $0,00, we will give a fine porcelain, breakfast set, or for five sub scriptions we will erive a handsome stereoscope and 48 colored scenes from all parts of the world, lhis hreakfrtst. apt never sold for less than $4.00 and it is worth $6.00 any- wnere ami tne stereoscope anu. views are worth fully as much as the breakfast Bet.

"Truth tell ing is a virtue upon which we should insist not only in the schools and at home, but in business and In politics just ns mncb." "The business man or politician who does not tell tbe truth cheats, and far the cheat we should have no use In any walk of life." t. These are some of the aphorisms utter- i - . .. i ed by Roosevelt. They are not tne ! ,.i,n,!rnn of li!s own brain, but have been appropriated by him as the devil niintps Serlnture t3 serve his purposes. Thev are ns true as If he had never nttprpd them and unfortunately find application In the present case to the great grief of honest men. GRAFT AND USURPATION. Serloua Charts la Comaectloa With the lathmna Pipe Line. In the debate on the rate bill May 15 the charge of graft and usurpation was made against the president In connec tion with a monopoly for a pipe line on the Isthmus of Panama, which had been granted to the Union Oil com pany. Senator Morgan had secured an amendment to the rate bill making pipe lines on the isthmus common car riers. Mr. Hopkins moved to reconsider the motion by which the amendment was adopted. Speaking to the motion. Senator Mor gan said the concession by the presi dent for a pipe line In the canal sone bad an oily, not to say a flshy, smell and was a peculiarly pronounced case of graft He declared other pipe lines had been denied the same privileges granted to the Union company, and It was "a sheer, cold usurpation of pow er." This Is a very serious charge and one which if well supported should result In the Impeachment of the president. It was bad enough to say of him that in bis negotiations with Tillman and Bailey he entered upon them with a dilemma, arranged affairs with a sub terfuge, withdrew with a mental reser vation and prevaricated when caught But it Is still worse to charge that he Is a grafter and usurper In league with Cromwell and the oil, trust. If this last charge Is as well sustained as the charge of bad faith has been It is high time to rid the executive office of Its present occupant. Peeple la the Toll.
