The most remarkable speech deliv ered ; on ; this mundane sphere on the glorious I Fourth vras that of General Charles Henry Grosrenor of Ohio de-" livered at'-Winfleld. Kan. Jf the, main contention, of the venerable and pro phetic . Buckeye - la correct, . then the American . people are the most ' egre gious set of asses that the sun ever look ed down upou, for he seriously argues that illiteracy Is not.a menace to good government! "What an idiot was Henry -j Lord , Brougham, "-with i hi? grandilo quent gush-about the schoolmaster be ing abroad ! What a cpnsummateTdiot was Thomas Jefferson when he. found ed the University of Virginia and be came the fathefv of the public school system! According to the general, Ig norance la a. blessing." He proves it conclusively, by, lambasting the ' New Englanders who sat in the Hartford convention. They were .,-intelligent men ; they plotted treason- Ergo intel ligence tends towardthe faith of Bene dict Arnolds - Fine logic that? - A great headpiece does General Grosvenor car ry About onhis shoulders. The Intense -heat must have excited his cerebnJm, cerebellum and-medulla oblongata. One thing dead ; sure,;. General Grosvenor cannot get away from his wonderful Winfield speech by laying it on; the re porter, as he did his third term inter view. He wrote or dictated the speech and had it'sent out by the Associated Press. - ' The 'general also complacently re marks, "Shortsighted persons complain that some of oucproducts are sold In Europe at a lower figure than they are sold tn the United States." Of course a poor fool American is shortsighted because he objects ta being held by the throat'iy the federal government while (he trusts go through his- pockets. Gen eral - Grosvenor's advice to the great body of Americans, stated bluntly-and without any circumlocution, is, "Ton howling, kicking idiots, dry. op and bumbly fcisc the hand that smites youT. That so'rt of doctrine might, be all right in India, where . benighted - mothers throw their babies into the Ganges to propitiate their god, but it will not prove palatable to the - intelligent people of America- It may be seriously, doubted if the general's patriotic and well be loved illiterates will swallow 6uch transparent tbmmyrot as that. It may be pleasant to theRepublican farmer in Kansas to know that his rival wheat raiser An foreign countries can purchase an American binder for two-thirds- the price he is compelled to pay for it. He may have, been sulking hitherto, about the extortions of the trusts, but he will be! happy as a clam at high tide now that General Grosvenor has caused him to see the light -V The best thing the Ohio Democratic state committee can do is : to print General - Grosvenor's speech by the hundred 'thousand and circulate it as campaign literature. ; ., Rank Hrppcrisy. '; , i :' " "Wonder if "the platform carpenters who constructed the latest Ohio Repub lican platform ever read Mark.Twain's "Gilded Age?" . If sq, did they confine their thoughts ipon that book to Colo nel Sellers, or did-they- sometimes study- Senator Dill worthy,, whose heart jvas always bleeding- for - the ? poor negro? Surely Dillwortby was their prototype. In their platform they sol emnly "demand that representation in congress and in the; electoral college shall be based on the actual voting pop ulation as. provided in the constitution, proportionate Ted uction being made for any state in which the right of suf frage is denied except for crime." A ranker piece of hypocrisy has not been witnessed on earth since, the Saviour rebuked the Pharisees of his day. How many negro. delegates there were In the convention which put that cheap . and demagogical, t'ommyrot in Its platform is not disclosed, but that there are thousands- and thousands of negroes in Ohio is known of all men. If the Buckeye Republicans are Buch vociferous friends to the poor negro, why did they not put at least one on their state ticket? Why don't they send one occasionally to congress? .Why don't they prove their faith by their works? TTe aforesaid taffy for. the negro was Intended to hold the colored voters in line, this fall; that's all. "It's a good enooghMorgan until after the election." . . v Kot War, bat Murder and Cruelty, " It may be that Tacitus, Sismondl or Macaulay has written something more scathing than the following- excerpt from Frederic n'arrison, who de scribes himself as "neither a 'Little England' nor 'pro-Boer nor 'cosmopol itan crank,' but a patriotic English man who does not think bis country's greatness need3 to be eked out with more Klondikes and Ugandas and ra f ases to applaud every folly and crlra into which demagogues in oSce may contrive to delude the nation." But if they diLdo the scathing act more cerfectlv their perfomance nag per ished from human memory, Harrison says: Tha :nffiMI rpfiim has disclosed a tarbaroct.

Both soldiers and ministers may count on this, that their names will live in his tory with those who ordered and executed tha barbarities of the Thirty Years' war, the devasta tion of the Palatinate and the dragonnades of Louis XIV. ' Barbarities of the kind became only toJ prob able when our rulers entered "with a light heart" on a war to conquer and crush one of the tough est, bravest, most independent races in the world ami gayiy announced that "not a shred of inde- pcHdence" would be left to tnen of proverbial courage and obstinacy, who for many generations ua.e iacea aeatn, famine and the extremes of suffering in order to live free, and esrieciany free of the hated British bondage. When the swia Hers and braggarts told ns that a little show of fores would cow these Dutch fanners, that, even if war did result, it would be over in a few weeks and would only cost, a few millions, when they en tered on one of the most formidable wars, of the ceirtury with ienorance so W:-iable and arro gance so biind, it became clear to aU who knew the history and nature of the Eoer and the phys ical conditions of the task that ghastly ferocities would be resorted to and that our British turn would be dragged down from each meannen nrl atrocity to still lower depths. une horrible side of this war to us who retain some feeling for the honor of our country is that the nature of the task to which we were com mitted made -violent and unlawful measures al most inevitable.- To conquer and. annex two fre and proud nations of European race" and most stubborn, nature is an outrage which, has never been attempted sine the partition of Poland. Considering the vast extent of -the land, ttvs physical difficulties of the task and the superb fighting qualities of the patriots, it was an un dertaking of extreme peril, v since they were of the same race, language and traditions as the Afrikanders of our own colony it made dvU war and rebellion almost inevitable, and yet, to fail la sight of mankind, after all our Quixotic bragga docio, would be intolerable, humiliation. Accord ingly they set their teeth, prepared "to fight It out to a nmsa by whatever means, flinging to the winds considerations of public law, humanity and the good name, of England. Hen cures in their hearts the law of nations and sneer openly at the farce of The Hague, and women of the governing class do not blush t say that "what i wanted is more cruelty." The horrible part of this war, I. say, is that It has brutalized public opinion, made public men desperate and has.un sexed the women whom they pervert. If those things, awtul things,, set forth by Mr. Harrison are not true, he is a traitor to England and liable to be hanged for treason. If they are true, they -constitute a , terrible In dictment not only of Joe Chamber lain and his heartless Jingoes but also of the McKinley administration, for tt stood by, consenting to. the foul mur der of the two brave little republics as did Saul at the . stoning of Stephen. All of Mr. McKinley's tact, Bklll, amiability, grace and graciousness will not remove from his administration that ugly, blot The greatest republic on earth gave aid and- comfort to the cutthroats who are butchering, burning and plundering ia South Africa. -A word from us would have stopped.it, but, our 3pro-EnglIsh administration winked. - ' .

The New Tork Sun is a case, in point It Teas' Democratic, and when Democratic was so Intensely Democratic as to put to blush the aver age Democratic journal. Then ft flop ped to Ben Butler in 1SS4. Finally it has landed in the Republican camp and Is the leader of the procession ta abusing everybody and everything not Republiitan. Not long since I was on a lecture tour through Kansas, Arkan sas, Louisiana and Texas. I stopped over one day in New Orleans, where a newspaper correspondent asked for an fnterview. He got it, for I always like to be accommodating. lie wanted to know what I thought of the supreme court decision in the Porto. Rlcan case. As I am a plain, blunt man and speak what I think -without circumlocution, I said, There isn't a lawyer In the United States that is fit to try a re plevin case about a hog in the court-Df a justice of the peace who does not know that that decision is preposter ous. "' .' . . For expressing that short, clear and emphatic opinion The Sun assails me and says that I will , soon begin work on a lecture entitled "Supreme Courts Which I Have Reversed-" The Sun is mistaken. . I never reversed or claim to have reversed any supreme court; consequently f will write, no lecture on that subject But a very useful and instructive lecture might be written on the subject, "Supreme Courts 'Which the People Have Reversed." The sa pient editor of The Sun-has perhaps heard of the Dred Scott decision- The makers of that opinion .thought they had settled the slavery agitation for all time to come. That decision has never beeH reversed by that court, but It was reversed by -the people so thoroughly reversed that nobody pays the slightest attention to It now. . Again, for the sole purpose of stirring up The Sun's pure mind by way of re membrance, I once more allude to the famous legal tender cases and the chap ter of history growing out of them history made by the Republican party, whose conscience keeper The Sun now aspires to be. The first lesal tender opinion was. adverse to the constitu tionality -of the legal tender quality of the greenbacks. It Is a, historic fact that . a Republican congress enlarged the supreme court, and President Grant packed It In order to have that decision reversed. He appointed Judge Strong nd Aliunde Joe Bradley, who uvrlz- died Samuel J. Tllden out of the pres idency. They did the deed, acting In conjunction with the dissenting judges la the original opinion, The legal ten der act was by this second decision held constitutional. Does The Sun re member that? Did it ever read the story-whose moral w&3, -"Very cuch depends on whose ox Is gored?" .

' FaadamtBtil Trfiths. - Mr. Bryan -is entirely and eminently correct when he says that the Declara tion of Independence was not a mere temporary expedient, but la an enunci ation of .fundamental truths intended for all time. Not long since the Wash ington Post declared that the father themselves Ignored the Declaration when they came to make a constitution. Not so,, however. Thry applied the principles of the major charta of out liberty so far as was possible la-the circumstances by which they .found themselves surrounded. Not being" om nipotent they did the best they could with such lights as were available, but that they did fun counter to, or that they Intended to run counter to, the eternal principles of human freedom, so graphically and so felicitously set forth in Jefferson's Immortal document, cannot be maintained by any evidence worthy of credence. Tart cf the men who sat in the 'constitutional conven tion helped make the Declaration, and the rest had aided the good cause hi congress and In the field. It Is the height of Idiocy to conclude that they would have stultified themselves by recanting so soon principles which had been made good by so much life, blood and treasure. The whole truth la that every article, section, line, word and syllable of the constitution ought to be construed In the light of the Declara tion of Independence.
