It wanted to wait untflafter it had jwbn out and then teir the deluded who was its backer. And on this rock the first split hap pened and the Democratic leaders looked " worried. But wait until De mocracy gets wet all over wait till the shiver of success is past and it finds itself in the swimming hole alone,- and then you will see Democ racy duck Democracy and some of the Democrats oni the bank - will . tie knots in . the clothes of the deep water statesmen. The ' Yellow Jacket , has made . no mistake Tin the diagnosis. Democracy- cannot i stand aCfhe : crib undivided. i: : . Bob -Taylor, the fiddler from Ten nessee; the gentleman who hasbeen busy; in politics and matrimony from whence the memory of man runneth not to the contrary, recently went into eruption in Washington City. Th lava and. volcanac .tuffa that streamed down, from his resourceful mouth was the same old stuff the stuff that makes Bob famous in Ten nessee and that makes him stand as a-humorist not as a statesman not as a man in earnest. Among other things Bob said that the money madness in America was such that if an American were to get to heaven he "would dig up the streets of the New Jerusalem and put a-duty on the harps of-the angels in order to protect American indus tries." .Of course that was very funny. In the first" place if the streets of the New -Jerusalem are pure gold, they are without value because gold loses there its charm if not its glitter. And to insist that protection on American industries is a joke; that the harps of angels should be protected 'as an American. TndustryTwas ai-far-fetched, but typical expression of the Tennes see fiddler. When the people are talking about electing Senators by the- people we feel that It will be a good thing, un less Democracy so hedges things about that the people cannot break through the primary. Taylor ran for Governor only recently and was snowed tinder and if the electorate of Tennessee was called upon for a Senator, Bob Taylor could resume his rasin and bow. The people who have been electing senators through legislative , routes may have been buncoed now and then but some of the worst misfits imaginable have landed because of the method we have been employing. With the. pear, pie to elect, if we can really get to the people, there will be no Owens and Taylors, and such clowns and cheap skates in Washington. Put that in your-pipe and smoke it. It is a true bill. NOTHING STRANGE ABOUT IT. The papers ' are remarking as though it were strange thatA woman, Mrs. Ellen Wilson, has been elected Mayor of Hunnewell, Kansas. Kansas has produced its Sockless Jerry; the famous John Brown r the From the Des Moines (la.) Capital. Chicago, - which: frequently lays claim to being a: Republican cityi has Just " elected a' Democratic mayor by a bigvote. .St Louis has. elected a decisive majority. '..Many causes will probably be spec ified as being' responsible -for these results, but , to our mind " there is one in s particularwhich is deserving- of empnasis. Chicago is without av Republican newspaper mat is,- a newspaper which . preaches the doctrines of Re publicanism all the year around and one year after another. The -Inter Ocean carries at the top of lis first page the words "The only .Republican newspaper in Chicago," , and yet it supported Carter Harrison for mayor In the city, campaign just closed. The other Chicago papers are Re publican-in spots and upon particular occasions. To find a ringing note in behalf of true Republican principles would require a" long and tedious wait and a most painstaking search. As a . result , Chicago politics Is one continuous round of chaos. Candi dates are all things to all men or any old thing to catch votes. How different. Is the situation which we find at St. Louis. St. Louis has several good papers, but she has one paper which never lowers the Republicari flag; never falters in feal ty tQ, Republican principles? We re fer to the St. Louis Globe-Democrat. When Missouri was so densely Demo cratic that moss was the party "em blem, the Globe-Democrat continued to fight and to prophesy of vic tory. Ana one day victory came. The Democratic party was routed throughout- the state. The margin or. safety is not large, but it is a healthy margin. In states, cities and communities In which real Republicanism is - con-. stantly being dinned into the minds of the people, the voters can be de pended upon sooner or later to dem onstrate that the educational ham mering has not been in vain. -THE GEORGIA CRACKER, we have never boosted the nigger to' any great extent. We never thought Sambo was as much of a citizen as some of our Northern peo ple think but we have always thought that God Almighty intended that Africa should work out its own salvation and somehow, we never could get It out of our head that the great-souled, sad-fatted Lincoln was in some way an instrument of God. When the emancipation proclama tion was signed; when Lincoln in the dark days saw that there was but one way to do things, he -never ex pected to give Sambo the ballot. He simply proposed tb cut Toose the chains of slavery; to stop the traffic in human souls and the emancipation proclamation would have, ended the matter, had the South 'accepted it. But the free slave was without power. He could not vote; he had no voice. and the master, of yesterday attempt ed still to dominate and Lincoln and the Republican party found it neces sary to give Sambo the right to vote. And that was the reason the Four teenth amendment was placed in the Constitution and whether "Tight or wrong it was there, and it must remain there. But Representative . Hardwick, of Georgia, a Cracker from the Cracker state and a Democratic statesman who boasts that not one kink is in his hair, introduces a bill in the Dem ocratic congress to repeal the four- eenth amendment. He wants the nigger taken out of politics notwith standing the 'fact that the South has eliminated him practically by the grandfather clause. But it will never be.
