r - SpeciarWashlngton Letter. '
" In large headlines TheGlobe-Demo-crat,
leading Republican organ grinder
west of the Mississippi, says, "Ex-Governor
Taylor Seems Safe; Governor
Durbin Almost Certain to Dishonor
Kentucky liequisition," thereby an
nouncing the most disgraceful current
fact in American history. While the
whole country is mourning the dastard
ly murder of President McKJnley and
while all good citizens, without regard
to party affiliations,' are pestering their
heads to devise ways and means, for
stamping out anarchy and anarchists,
this Republican governor of Indiana is
using all his power to prevent Govern
or Bill Taylor and Secretary of State
Finley from being taken back-to Ken
tucky to be tried for as foul a murder
as . blots the record of the human-race.
That they richly deserve hanging no
sane man doubts, but they are pofect
ed by Governor Durbin solely because
they -are eminent Republicans and be
cause they were in a conspiracy to as
sassinate a Democratic governor. Sup
pose the case reversed and that the red
banded criminals now skulking in In
diana were Democrats charged with
being participes criminis in the murder
of: a Republican governor-7-does any
body; believe for one fleeting moment
that Governor Durbin would nrotect
them? Not very much! Suppose Dur
bin'Sjplan is universally adopted of re
fusing requisitions for fugutives from
justice what then? The comity be
tween the states is gone, and all that
any person charged with crime will
have to do in order to be safe from pun
ishment is to escape out of his own into
another state, which would be a most!
deplorable condition of affairs, placing
a -positive premium upon lynch law.
Czolgosz and Governor Taylor ought to
be electrocuted on the same day. They
are birds of a feathef. " - . S '
Ad Inevitable Result.
Proconsular government has been un
just and corrupt ever since the world
began and will continue to be so until
the earth shall perish as a scroll. Our
proconsular government in the Philip
pines appears to be no exception to the
rule. First "we had the Philippine
Hard Wood company, of which Hon.
Ai Ti Hull, Republican congressman
l-from Des Moines, is president and in
which; there are supposed to be mil
lions." V - -. :
Later we have a senate committee In
vestigating the affairs of a company
composed largely, of, army officers and
war"department officials organized for
the purpose., of "cornering Philippine
hemp,'' thereby raising the price to the
AmericafftHmsumer and feathering the
nests of the members of the company.
It appears that one of them, Major E.
L. Hawkes, did not receive a quantum
sufflcit or what he deemed a quantum
meruit of the swag, bo he squealed, and J
by charges' against Colonel II. O. S.
Heistand gave the whole snap away.
He also gives the names of the mem
bers of the company, and, lo, the name
of Hon. George D. Meiklejohn, late as
sistant secretary of wari like that of
Aban Ben "Adhem," leads all the rest
"Loot"; appears to possess irresistible
fascination for the average Republican
in office or out. ' .; . ;
Democrats Disfranchised.
". The St.-Louis Post-Dispatch contain
ed telegraphic news from Des Moines
the" other day showing the existence of
a plan to disfranchise 3,500 Democrat
ic voters in that city. The Republican
party" has surely lost all confidence in
its virility when it 1s brought to the
point of disfranchising 'Democrats la
towa to make sure that Its capital. city
remains Republican! Tbey are surely
anticipating a landslide of such huge
proportions as to threaten Iowa and
even Pennsylvania, where they are still
stuffing the ballot boxes through sun
shine and shadow, throngh good and
evil report. '. . , .. . ,v '-' ' '

An Ingrate.V
The Schley court of inquiry works
on like a clock. One interesting fact
in connection with it has been gencrH
ally overlooked. It is this that Cap
tain Lemly. Schley's prosecutor-before
the court, was one of the six survivors
of the 111 fated Greely expedition.
These six were snatched from the very
portal of death by this same Schiey,
gallant sailor and gentleman. When
Schley - reached them, standing his
weary vatch for twenty hours out of
twenty-four in the crow's. nest of his
vessel, eating cold grub passed up on
a rope's end, going far into the arctic
seas six weeks, earlier in the spring
than any man had ever done, the sur
geons said that Lemly was within
thirty-six hours of death from starva
tion. And Schley saved him; saved
him by courage, heroism, Belf denial
and Superhuman energy. Ingratitude,
is base. "Many- men would have re
signed their commissions before they
would have accepted the appointment
as judge advocate prosecuting attor
ney, so to speak in the present In
vestigation. But Lemly seems to glory
in it, to be even overzealeus as a .prose
cutor. Had It not been for Schley
Lemly would now be a dead ensign,
with hia bones bleaching In arctic
snows, -Instead- of a live captain. v
Roosevelt and the G. A. H,
President Roosevelt's troubles appear
to be beginning early. Some of the vet
erans seem to be falling foul of him.
Vide the following from the Washing
ton Post In the form of a special dis
patch from Boston:
Louis Bell post O..A.B., of Manchester, N. H.
conducted a memorial service tonight in honor ot
the late President McKinley.
- The meeting became notable st once ss express
ing the first sentiments ot criticism and hostility
toward President Boosevelt. The president's words
in writing to a southern friend were referred to
as an unhappy expression. - -
v Captain Frank B. Chillis, past national com
mander ot the Sons ot Vetera n, said: "I confess
that it was with some misgivings that I read the
letter which President Boosevelt wrote to a
southern -friend, in which he said that he was
proud ot the fact that two of his uncles served
the Confederate cause, one as an admiral in the
Confederate navy, Vhile the other had fired the
last gun on the Alabama. 1 confess I have some
mi&zi vines -as to the future. I don't like to ses
the pendulum swing that way.M
Taking up the theme of the previous speakers.
Senator Burnham said. "We shall not yield one
Jot or tittle of the principles that we fought fur
during the civil war or abandon the idea that we
were right and that the south was eternally and
wickedly wrong."
- Stub per Versos Statesman. '
Professor Goldwln Smith, D. C. Lu, In
a recent article in The North American
Review on "The Political Situation In
England" gives an opinion which Is so
diametrically opposed to the -general
belief that it is worth quoting here. He
says: "The place of statesman is being
more and more taken by the stump or
ator. To stump oratory a large share
Of the public man's time and effort are
now given. Two generations ago no
British politician of high degree
thought of going on the stump.or-even
of speaking at any erection dut nis own,
The present habit Is highly Injurious to
statesmanship. It absorbs the man's
energy; ItTdeprives him of time for the
acquisition of knowlecTge and reflection
worst of all, perhaps, it forces him to
be perpetually committing himself, for
a speaker can hardly amuse and excite
a large audience without saying more
than in his cooler moments he would
deem it prudent to say," :
All this in face or tne careruny cuer-
Ished theory that tbe.day of oratory is
past Of course he Is speaking of Eng

come so English that what applies to

For Instance, while I was writing my
"I'lUHiroqia FtoriW UiT ; Sw i-

A. RodenlKTg, civil service commis
sioner, wrote me from Honolulu as fol

ter. In the course of his speech In a small toa
in the interior of the state fitch dwelt eloquently
upon the character and virtues ot the Republican
candidate and explained that the only thing upon
which the Democrats could possibly base their
charge of corruption waa the fact that on one oc
casion an officer ot the CredlLJiobilicr had luaord

Ben Butler was chairman of the house commit tea
which had charge ot the work of reconstruction.
Another member of tbs commltce was John F.
Famsworth ot Hlinols. -Butler entertained a very
cordial dislike for Famsworth. which was recip
rocated by the latter. Butler, as chairman ot tits
committee, reported a bill for the admlarlon of
the- elates of Texas, Virginia and MisaieirpL
which contained some very severe and drastic
provisions. Farnswcrth very" vigorously opposed
the report, whereupon Butler accused him ot no
longer being a Republican and advised him to
r.in tha Democratic party. Farnsworth indig
nantly denied the charge and, among other things.
said, "when it comes to a question of party loy
ally, I desire to inform the gentleman that 1 was

"Well." retorted Butler, "there arc people Who
think more ot Judas Israriot than the A poet la
Paul simply because Judas was the oldest disci

Ouick as a fiash Farnsworth replied. "1 very seri
ously question the accuracy of the gentleman's
statement that Judas was an older disciple than

to back up his assertion." Ben had none.

.General John A. Halderman of Wash
ington In a two column reminiscent In
terview in the New York Weekly Tost
of Aug-. 21 discosees the battle of Wil

Here, It will be remembered, the Con

McCuiloeh sent Lyon s body, found oa
the field, to Springfield and placed It
in tho care of the Union forces.
General Halderman stated that the
Union force consisted of 5.000 troops
and the Confederate army contained
22,500. The general mnst have been a
