The most remarkable speech deliv

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

" 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:

It was a policy so dpgradingr In plan tnd so re-
vblting in its consequences that tor honora' '.e

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. - ' .
' s. '-. A Jfeirr Convert' ZeaL.
The : zeal of a new convert is pro
verbial. He thinks he must out-Herod
Herod in order to convince people of
his sincerity. 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?"

- 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. The Latter In its
