ARE AMERICANS CIVILIZED?
William Jay Youmans, editor of
Appleton's Popular Science Monthly,
raises the question,. "Are the Ameri
can People Civilized?" Mr, You
mans is inclined to take a negative
view of their qualifications for that
distinction.
In view of the fact that the meaning
and content of the term "Civilization"
has not been very definitely settled
there is naturally room for some dif
ference of opinion. A varying stand
ard will yield various results.
Viewed in alump, however, how is it
possible to doubt the civilization of a
people who daily give such fine exhi
bitions of it"? Has not Kansas given
Mrs. Lease to the whole country and
Mr. Peffer to the senate of the United
States ? And Kansas , you will please
to remember, has some time been in
elegantly dubbed "wild and wooly."
Surely then if a community popularly
accredited with standing well down
toward the foot of thecolumn can show
up so magnificently there should be no
question about the rest of the coun
try. Then we have MarcusA. Hanna, the
most powerful man in American poli
tics today, whatever the result of the
Ohio election may be. Is- it not an
other evidence of an elevated state of
civilization that he should stand pedes
talled as an exemplar worthy of close
copying by the ambitious youth of the
country? Mr. Hanna, who has evi
denced his abililty and statesmanship
by collecting several million dollars
more than was needed to elect a presi
dent; Mr. Hanna, who can make a
speech of which any school boy six
teen years old might justly be proud
and who put a negro to shame who tried
conclusions with him in the slinging of
street English.
There is Boston, too, aesthetic, ul
tra, Browning-loving Boston, the very
acme and cream and pure efflorescence
of civilization. It is only just now
that an organization of her fair, frail
women have made the whole country
dilate with pride in her by a concerted
attack , infinitely delicate ,upon marriag
able bachelors that has already re
sulted, we are assured, in an ex-mayor's
launching fearlessly on the sea of
connubial bliss. A whole fleet is ex
pected to follow suit shortly.
It is difficult to see how Mr. You
mans could have overlooked the signs
right in his own bailiwick, New York,
under his very nose; evidences that
must ooze in at every chink and crev
ice of his office daily. Has not one
representative of each of the warring
factions given an example of proficien
cy in the use of profanity that made all
the jack tars in port turn pea-green
with envy? Did anybody ever hear a
Fiji or a bushman swear on the stump
in a mayoralty contest, however high
his enthusiasm might mount, or how
ever provoking the opposition might
grow? We trow not. He is only a
poor barbarian.
Has not Mr. Youmans read the
public prints? Is he not aware that
during the long, hot, dry summer just
passed, with infinite exertion, we
lynched some three or four hundred
men to show how dear to our hearts are
the ways of civilization? Some of
them were guilty and some were inno
cent, but . the beautiful impartiality
shown is a strong proof of extra at
tainments. It is only highly en
lightened peoples that raise so much
fearlessly righteous indignation at
short notice that all law and order is
swept away on the crest of the popnlar
wave. ,
And then, ah then, coming nearer
home, has not dear,, dozy, conserva
tive, law-abiding old North Carolina
put up Mr. Butler and Mr. Russell,
and Keeper Burns and Dr. Kirby
Smith and a whole host of legislators
and things to show that she ' must be
reckoned with when the talk is of civ
ilization? You just bet she has. .
Dear, dear, Mr. Youmans, we charge
thee fling away pessimism and come
off. When it comes to being civilized
we are a lonesome pebble down by the
sounding sea.
Very unfortunate was the killing of
Von Gammon in the Virginia-Georgia
football game. It will, of course,
draw a flood of criticism" from the
press, some of which will be sensible
and pertinent and some of which will
be senseless and impertinent. There
is a certain element of danger in the
game, under any circumstances,' just
as there is an element of danger in all
forms of physical exercise. There are
other amusements, however, equally
dangerous, and without the redeeming
features of football, against which no
voice is raised and no line is written.
There is "no need to go into righteous
hysterics over the matter. A young
lady who was walking along the streets
of a certain city stumbled and in fall
ing was impaled on the streel rod of
her .umbrella. Let all people hence-
i
forth take the rain. More people lost
their lives at Garrisons than football
has killed in all its history. Let no
body ride on a train except on busi
ness. The country need not be treated
to a pyrotechnic display of very cheap
indignation.
It is to be hoped that no one will
suggest that the newly appointed Vir
ginia postmaster, who has just been
shot while stealing wheat, was a 'fair
specimen of recent appointees. There
is the best of evidence that many of
them would not be caught stealing
wheat.
Ex-Governor Oates, of Alabama, is
kicking because the quarantine ran
him out of the state and ' Governor
Johnson is kicking because it did not
run him out.
