And so it i3 given out that Senator
Marcus A. Hanna is about to settle the
great strike of the steel workers, -and
by so doing play his trump card as a
presidential candidatel Suppose that It
were proposed that Bryan, CockrelV
Hill, Towne, Gorman . or any other
Democrat "who" is frequently and favor
ably mentioned for the presidency
should be called on to settle a great
strike, what a lusty howl would pro
ceed from the brazen throats of all the
Republicans in the land! How the
charge of demagogue and anarchist
would be hurled about by the apostles I
of purity, sweetness and light!; Demo-
crats are all yearning to seeMarcus
nominated. 3 He is the logical, candi
date, and comes nearer" being the In
carnation of latter day Republicanism
than any other man mentioned as the
Republican nominee. He should re
ceive the nomination by all" means.'
Simultaneously with the proposal that
Mark shall settle the steel strike which
has its center ; at Pittsburg, Pa., as
an aid to his presidential aspirations.
comes the cheerful news from that city
that a vast glass trust la forming. That
is one of those happy coincidences, in
human affairs calculated to drive away
ennui and should furnish Mark's pres-
idential rooters with a thrilling and far
resounding battlecry of "Hanna and
trusts!" which would bring all the pin-

Hon. Sereno E. Payne, chairman of

Hon. Julius ..Csesar - Burroughs, the

keep an eye also on Congressman
Warner of the Jacksonville (Ills.) dis-
trict 1 Congressman Warner shows
signs of sanity in the following re
marks
When it 19 demonstrated that we can sell manu
factured goods cheaper in European market than
we can in our own, there does not seem to be any
necessity for a tariff on goods of this class. Tbe
object of the tariff is to protect the American la
borer and to foster American Industries. 1 sm
in favor of protecting labor and capital, but after
commercial industries have become so strong as
to! be able to -undersell Europeans in their cheap
Isbor market I do not see that it is necessary to
protect these industries any further. 1 do not
wish to be placed In an attitude oi antagonizing
any industry, but it seems to me the tariff ques
tion will be an issue during the next congress.
" The tariff is not sacred, and I do not agree with
those who contend that tbe Dingley law must be
left intact or repealed outright.'" The tariff- law
must be modified exactly as we modified the war
revenue act.
Of course, it is impossible to tell whether con
gress will enact any tariff legislation next winter.
but it would not surprise me if the question is
discussed as great length.
A prosecution for leze majesty
against Warner would be In order.
Hill's Bid.
There can be no longer any Question
that Hon. David Bennett Hill, ex-gov
ernor and ex-senator, is a full fledged
candidate for the Democratic presiden
tial nomination. What's more lmpor
tant, he believes tbe Democrats will
win in 1904 otherwise the sage of
Wolfert's Roost would not want the
nomination. David never took kindly
to Dolitical gold bricks. These concln
bions are arrived at by carefully perns-
Iet Lis elaborate and palnstaklrs'.y
trenared interview in the riii'a'.; I'.a
Times, ne lays down nine preposi
tions which, according to his way of
thinking, embody the oriiaal princi
ples of Jeffersonian Democracy, vrUch
according' to t!3 pmiosoyuy,
bring success and on which, as a plat
form be would like to run.
These nine Hill plank3 are as fol

tails when Democrats are united cpon
the essentials of politics. He winds
up Lis interview, which is evidently
his bid for the nomination, as follows:
Our party is the great conservative force In the '
country today and absolutely necessary to its wel
fare. It stands against radicalism of every de
scription, it is opposed to plutocracy on tte on
uana ana to communism on tb other, it li op
posed to Imperialism in tha Philippine Islands,
and alto to anarchy in Cuba.
It respects the rested riuht of caoital an .t
the aame time sympathise with labor oppressed.
It has no alliance with powerful cornoratt Impr
ests; neither U it in league with demagogies wbo
disturb society and agitate for the mere sake of
agitation It doe not regard the possession ol
wealth aa a crime, not even a badge of honor;
nor does it consider poverty as either a disgrace
or a virtue. It makes no war upon classes, but
opposes corrupt and vicious system and method
wnerever tney are to be found.
it has no use for th nassinir "im" nf k.
hour.
It proposes as its sreneral colicv to dWn
the fundamental principles upon which the party
was founded by the gTeat Jefferson himself.
in that path there is afety, honor, success.
Hark, from the tomb a doleful sound!
Hon. Sylvester Pennoyer, aforetime
governor of Oregon, a.riproarlng Popu
list, nas crawled out of his hole and
reminded persons who supposed he was
dead that he still breathes by Jumping
on William J. Bryan in words as fol
lows, to wit: .
The Ignoring of Bryan by the Ohio Democrat!
convention was legitimate nd Just. He had as
pired twice to the leadership of the party and
twice led it to defeat when with any other candi
date on the same platform it would have been
victorious. The young man simply talked himself
and his party and its principles to defeat, and it
is eminently proper that he should be set aside.
Clearly Governor Sylvester Pennoy er is
one of those heroic souls who esteem it
to be a safe and proper thing to Jump
on a man when he is down. Had Bryan
won tne great prize Sylvester would
have demanded a large slice of the po
litical pie and would have been willinz
-to make his affidavit that the Nebras-
kan was the greatest, -wisest, best and
most brilliant of all the multitudinous
and multifarious sons of Adam. But
Sylvester got no pie, hence he snarls
and snaps and bites the hand which
he would have delighted to kiss had
that hand been disnensln? lnsclnna
provender. So Sylvester lumrs on
Bryan, which appears to be a popular
amusement Just now and which may
canse many vain regrets in the Jump
er on in the sweet by and by, for the
motto of the masterful young man
from Nebraska is "Resurgam" (I shall
rise again), and when he does rise all
the tribe of Sylvester will be loud In
his praise and will throw high their
sweaty caps In his honor and In demon
stration of the fact that their appetites
for pie are as robust as ever.
Republican Paper Answers Pen.
One strange result of Mr. Pennoyers
outbreak is that it stirred the gorge of
eTen 8uch. a radical and Incorrigible
Renublican as the St. ihonlR Glnh.
Democrat, which has the grace to take
up the cudgels for Bryan in this wise
It U entirely safe ts sar that not one Intelligent.
unprejudiced person out of one hundred believes
that Bryan was weaker than his platform. On
the other hand, s Terr large majority of the peo
ple, it is sate to say, think be was stronger than
hi platform. Bis platform were so objectionable
to th masses of Americans that no man stand-
ins; upon them could -ever come within sight of
w irucy, ana u. vu an ezceueni represent-
ativ of that coUectios of feUies and abeurditiea.
But be was eloquent and magnetic and undoubt
air polled more votes than any other person
Z.lTlT.
tnose elements.
On th whole, Bryan is likely to be helped
thn najrnwd by the sotihty of such men
" rZSrZJZ . '11
Ptnnoyer to an important office after his freak Uh-
" na been proclaimed by himself far yesrs
was one or tne amannr oevewpmenta of tbe poll
tie ot the Ponnlistio and anarohirtio of rtrht
w tan years ago. He was orobablr the most dis-
creditable executive which any of the state ka
r cn- "y" lorronat u naving ren-
temper s little of the opposition which conserve
tlve persons all over the country hare had for
Bryan. . It ought to get him a few extra votes In
the Democratic, convention of 190 if hia nam
cornea before that body.
When Sylvester reads that excerpt
from The G.-Dn he la quit likely
to come to the conclusion that he has
played the fool and has nothing to
show for It The probabilities are that
when he; Jumped on Bryan, he ex
pected the applause at least of Repub
licans. He doesn't even get that and
he can now retire to hia hole and pull
the bole in after him.
Colonel Bryan " may or may not be
dead politically. He may or may not
again be nominated for, president If
nominated he may or may not be elect
ed. He may or may not dictate the
next nominee; but whatever he does ot
does not do, honest men can have only
supreme contempt for those who Beek
to abuse and belittle this brilliant, bon
est and fearless man solely because he
failed to win and consequently is not
dispenser of p'ie.
- British Saevagery.
It Is possible, but not at all probable,
that somehow, somewhere, some time,
somebody has . practiced greater and
more heartless cruelty than the British
are now practicing on the heroic Boers
of South Africa. Here is one of Lord
Raglan's bulletins: "List of Boer pris
oners in concentration" camps: Men,
14,024; women, 27,711; children, 43,073.
Death list for June, 1901: Men, C3;
women, 138; children, 576." Nothing
more shocking has occurred among
men since Jesus of Nazareth first
preached the gospel- of- love. Fot
generations tender hearted persons
have wept over that awful night in the
Black Hole of Calcutta, but the suffer
ing there wasn't a marker to this Brit
ish Inhumanity to the Boers. Yet the
McKlnley administration stands by
consenting. .
. Unprecedented Gall. -All
is not serene in the imperialistic
camp. Hawaii was tne nrst acquisi
tion of the Jingoes. It was for the de
lectation of the land grabbers denomi
nated "The Pearl of the raclflc."
Strange to say, It is in.Hawail that the
Jingoes are being Jolted till their teeth
rattle. To begin with, Hawaii, which,
according to the sons of Ananias and
Bapphlra, was panting to get into the
Union even as the hart panteth for
the water brooks, sent to congress the
first dash out of the box a fuli fledged
monarchist, who raa and was elected

and to restore Queen Lil to the throne

soldier, "was one which re'a:e 1 to a
conversation between Grant as 1 a pri

bitterness in the telling of the tale, bat
the fact that it brought ia three cf the
most prominent characters of the ar
and gave the Confederates the beit cf
a well-rounded point caused the old fcl
lows to sj.tt their sides when they heard
it, and made the a anaiocs to repeat
it.
Grant ran into a private in the
Confederate ranks oo one occaiioo and
the private called, 'General, where are
you going?" To Petersburg, I think,
but maybe to keareo or to hell, the
General replied. Well, I w;ll te'.l

'Bob Lee is at Petersburg, and S:c-r.e

Grant enjoyed the thrut!, at gr:m

of the pleasantries of the war between
