Epi”’” IMPERIALISM. Judge Parker sounded a note of alarm in his spe hoi acceptance that should appeal to every thinking man in the sta.e, for it is not alone for the present that this country exists. Were it so, it Plight make little difference what exam?’- s ware set for us in high places, for they coaid not reach further than the present. Every patriot looks to the future, and it is the danger from the precedents that are being established in the Philippines that we must rear. This thought was in the mind of Judge Parker when he said: “Can we hope to instill into the minds of our descendants reverence and devotion for a government by the people, while denying ultimately that right to the inhabitants of distant countries, whose territory we have acquired either by purchase or by force? Can we say to the Filipinos, ‘Your lives, your liberty and your property may be taken from you without due process cf law for all time,’ and expect we will long glory in that feature of Magna Charta which has become incorporated, in substance and effect, into the constitution of every state, as well as into the fourteenth amendment of the constitution of the United States? Can we hope for the respect of the civilized world, while proudlv guaranteeing to every citizen of the United States that no law shall be made or enforced which shall abridge the privileges or immunities of citizens of the United States, or deny to | any person the equal protection of the laws, and at the same time not only deny similar rights to the inhabitants of the Philippines, tut take away from them the right of trial by jury, and place tlr lr lives and the disposition of their property in the keeping of those whom we send to them to be their governors? We shall certainly rue it : a a nation if we make any such attempt.' 1 And every thinking man will indorse thia sentiment, which was uttered in the same connection: "The most efficient work we can do in uplifting the people of other countries is by the presentation of a happy, prosperous, self-governing nation as an ideal to be emulated, a model to be followed. The general occupation of ov.r citizens in the arts of peace, or the absence of large military armaments, tends to impair neither patriotism nor physical courage.” FAIRBANKS. Reports from Senator Fairbanks’ tour do not justify the hopes of those who were so insistent on his nomination. His speeches do not awaken any enthusiasm and. though he has been royally entertained by wealthy men of the party, th ?re hove been no

- ,u. ue •nnsusi-.' 'is m ms uonor. Indeed, sere el the Republican papers have mildly criticised both the senator’s style nr-’ the vF->-» matter of his speeches. He has not met expectations by advancing any new’ ideas, I and. of course, he is wholly incapable of those flights of oratory which catch I a promiscuous assemblage and engenI der enthusiasm. Everyone knows ! that the nomination of the senator has net been productive of enthusiasm in his own state. He has long been regarded as a cold, calculating politician whose personality is not attractive and who is distantly removed by nature and by subsequent cultivation from the exercise of those sympathies with his fellows that stand o it on the surface and make men popular. In no sense is the senator a man to make impromptu speeches from the tail end of a car. and his attempt to tour the country in such away is farcical. Mr. Fairbanks, in a moment of inadvertence. practically indorsed the ship subsidy bill in one of his speeches. \\ -ten he saw his words in print and weighed their meaning carefully. he entered a denial, saying he was misunderstood. Just why he should deny that he is now for a ship subsidy when he voted for a bill that was pending in the senate, needs explanation. It might be suggested that a campaign is now on, whereas one had just been closed when his vote was cast for the ship subsidy steal. It sometimes makes a difference j whether an election is before or beI hind the politician, and this seems to be the case with the Indian senator. Henry C. Pettit, United States marshal for Indiana, has been selected by’ the Republican state central committee to encourage the legislative campaign and by accepting such a position he enters into partisan politics both openly and defiantly in opposition to the rules of the civil service. But Mr. Pettit may be above the law, and no doubt is, and the exigencies of the Indiana campaign will no doubt excuse him in the eyes of his superiors. It is the “greater issue” that Mr. Bryan sees. He confesses no change in his views on economic questions. But he insists that these are in abeyance while an issue involving the very existence of the constitution and American liberty is being decided. “Judge Parker believes in the gold standard,” he says, “I believe in bimetallism. but I can vote for him in order that through him the country may rid itself of an imperial policy.” Chairman Cortelyou is not pointing with pride to the injunction which put the meat trusts out of business. That injunction is filed away in the dust , covered archives.

f ORGANIZATION. Tho Democrats of Indiana cannot ! put too much stress upon the neces- ; I sity for organization in the present , campaign, it is the one thing that , brings members of the party into close touch with each other, that leads to ■ interchanges of ideas, to wise counsels ■ | and to effective work. Without it . j much of the effort of individuals, hewi ever intelligent and well meant, is in- | ] effective because it is not made in ; unison with the effort of others ti.-d it- ■ 1 firns lacking in that broader scope j which it might otherwise attain, ihe , I county committee ought to take up | tho subject at cnce and prosecute it tiU every school district is in tdnrrc i ■ oi so/:'? earnest, en’or. " crat'who will take immediate stsps in j organization.. Whether the party is in a majorifv | cr a minority mrkes no db.crcnce. It ■ ! the former, no effort should be lack: . I to make it more pronounced, and et- | fective organization is the one great j i factor in its accomplishment: if the , I latter, the Republican majority’may I be reduced and thus e”en a minority . oo'inty may contribute to a victory in , district, state and nation. What is | true of the party organization as a whole is alike true of every individual of which it is .composed. Everyone can do something, and where the di rection is intelligent the effort earnest and the zeal untiring, the work will be effective. The matter should not be deferred ‘ but should be taken up at once. There ' is no greater thief, with the possible | f exception of some Republicans who I were employed in the postoffice department at Washington, than Procrastination. It steals time and time ’ in a campaign is always valuable. Now is the time lor work, and the , first work to be done is to organize. , This accomplished, everything else ! will be easy, for on a close, thorough, compact organization all the future ! work of the campaign must be based. , The State Central Committee must depend upon the county committees for ! its information, and the National Com- . mittee must depend upon the state , organization. Thus, in the very nai ture of things, the county, township , and school district organizations are I the structures from which is built the , confidence and the intelligent effort that alone can insure a November victory. > A Boy’s Wild Ride for Life, s With family around expecting him i to die, andason riding for life eigh- - teen miles to get Dr. King’s New Disi eovery for consumption, coughs and s colds!
