J The DaUy Nevsand Observer .SUNDAY , MORNING, T MAT 5,- 1807. a JOS. B. FI)RME&,f OF OHIO BY - SAVOYARD. (Copyrighted 1867 by E. W. Newman.) Just fifty years ago the ddminlstra t!on of James Buchanan undertook to put Stephen A. Douglas lout of the political business. The little! slant was p. candidate for re-election to the l onate, and by general consent Abra ham Lincoln was selected aia his Re publican f opponent. Horace; Greeley, however, who was possessed of ex travagant admiration for thel wonder ful forensic genius of Douglas, .advised ihxi party tin Illinois to give its- vote to him. as a -rebuke to the ; Southern Democracy, that had prevalle I on Bu chanan to favor the Le Comp ton con stitution; but the Illinois Republicans Histrusted and feared the i litt le giant, and the result was the splen lid fight he made, against both Ltfnc ln and Buchanan i in 18S8, ; from - wr ich ; : - he came oft victor. - . - : " , '"V : A dozen years later.

Brice. . r . : -? - Meantime- a new prophet had arisen In that, Israel Mark' Hanna a- War wick, a nresident-maker. i Trained to business, he brought to his new vpca-u non a superior intellect, a iorcerui in dividuality, and a capacity! for organi sation rareiy; equaled. He entered upon the work vith enthusiasm, and before the , adversary got ready for action, he had secured enough pledges to make William McKinley the Re publican . nominee for president in 1884. It was his- wish to make it a tariff fightthe I McKinley tariff against the WlTsn, tariflC;. but by this time the coinage question -came on to be heard i and would 1 not the denied. It was not until the battle was half over that-' Hanna , realized 1 the true point of attack, and th candidate did not see it until within a fortnight of the : election. Foraker saw it ; from the beginning. "With r characteristic daring he proclaimed the gold stand ard, though he - was ..thera, and is stifl. a more inveterate and unreasonable protectionist than McKinley ever was The first time I ever saw Foraker he was forced to . stand - and ? compelled to make a speech, in the Republican unless it carries with It the right to his own ", iudement and discharge, the man holding it to go according to jicnrdine to his sense of duty, free and untrammeied the omciai oouga tions to KUDoort and maintain the Con stitutlon of the United States, which uuiem Biaies.i he takes when he enters his office. him on that -when the resident ordered the dis charge of the soldiers of the Twenty fifth infantry on account of that epi sode at Brownsville, Senator Foraker challenged him on the spot and se cured an investigation of that affair that ls not yet concluded. It was characteristic of the man. whether there be politics in.it or not. and we may be sure his conduct would have been the same had any other man than Theodore Roosevelt been piesi dent. Whether this episode shall af fect the situation in Ohio, time alone will tell. There are more than 80, 000 negro voters in that State, and it is obvious "that the administration Ls trying to placate them. The spoils of office caused the first colored United States senator to forget the debt of gratitude his race owed Charles Sumner, and now the oppor tunity is come to the colored people of ABSOLUTE siilw, Ceritiine Foraker was the only Republican senator who voted against the rate bill.:, His speech on that subject was one of the ablest constitutional argu ments eVer delivered in the United States Senate. It commanded the respect of all intelligent men. It allowed that the man had convictions, tlxat he had the courage to maintain them, and the learning to support Lthem. How much easier it would have been to fall in with the ma Jorlty: How much more applause h,e would have reaped! He is lonesome whoi does not adopt a fad. He is recalcitrant who does not throw his cap in the air and raise hla voice in unison with the whim of the mob. John Sherman, the greatest practi cal statesman Ohio ever produced, de clared that the anti-trust statute that bears his name was all our dual sys tern of government would bear. That has been supplemented by the Elk ins anti-rebate law. Foraker says these two are sufficient if they shall only b executed rigidly and without fear or favor. The rate bill has been the law of the land for months. Where is the octopus it has caught? Where is the trust it has busted? All that has been done was. done under the Shetman and Elkins acts. Foraker. rebuked by the adminis tration, has appealed the case to the people of Ohio, and In Ohio will be the political storm center the next six months. The issue is. shall a Senator be de prived of his political life "if he shall oppose a measure.
