If Norfolk is to baton harvest homo
Itival this full now is tho time to settle
Iho question and tophi tho preliminary
work
Tho Globo Detnoorat is of tho opinion
that Bryan is giving moro attention to
Missouri politics thnn ho in to tho oli
lies of Nebraska bocanpo ho knows that
Nebraska has loft democracy for good
Irat is anxious to save Missouri to his
party
La Prosse n Purls uuwspapcr is of
tho opinion that tho yntikeo peril
HiroatoiiB moro disaster to Knropo than
tho yollow peril that called forth tho
recent expedition to China Tho ynii
hoe peril are boxers too that is boxers
of merchandise and nro not likely to
to ns rendllv suppressed as the China
men
About the only paramount issue
Jeft for domocracy is tho Sulu treaty
iiud this will undoubtedly disappear
toforo n campaign makes it available
It is most undemocratic for tho admin
istration to conduct its affairs in a
manner so subject to popular approval
but tho republicans are not objecting
and tho democrats cannot
Tho Iowa supreme court iH appar
Mitly of the belief that some dramatio
performances cannot be libolod and has
bunded down u docisiou that dramatio
critics ore to be allowed groat latitude
Soino alleged performances should un
doubtedly bo taken before tho court for
libeling tho profession and this sort
could scarcoly hope to recover from a
dramatio writer for nu adverse criti
cism
Thoro appears to be few able to vig
orously condemn the horrible crime of
burning a negro at tho stake when tho
crimo committed by the victim was of
tho most atrocious nature conceivable
One should not excuse the other but
there are many who will consider the
Florida negroB punishment none too
pevere although they will argue in fa
vor of allowing tho law to take its
courso
Now tho rumor is circulated that
Charles A Towue of Minnesota is to
enter that maelstrom of Vhitoeruts
Wall street and put forth ji strong ef
fort toward becoming a monopolist It
really looks as though tho octopus was
eating directly into the heart of tho fu
sion parties and making the best of
them traitors to tho cause Tho fight
against corporate influence must have
been begun too late
A southern eM hiuigo says a now south
is talking through Senator McLauriu
Mr Bryan wants that now south to
cIobo its mouth and remain in the back
woods of politics He favors Senator
Tillman who argues for tho old south
nnd old democracy of tho retarding
kind They may succeed in muzzling
the now south for a time but it will
finally break forth in dazzling splendor
never to roturu to democraoy of the
pessimistic sort
Tho Telegraph of Macon Ga is one
of tho many southern papers that is
awaking to a new sense of political in
fluences in that section of the country
It sayB At present the old lino south
ern democrat is face to faco with tho
disagreeable fact that his party has
ubaudoned some of its most cherished
principles and that the republican party
has speedily appropriated the sumo
He is also aware that the republican
parry of today is ns friendly toward his
section as is the dominant element of
the democracy which strange to say is
still found in the north where the dem
ocraoy is tho weakest
Land Commissioner Watson of Lin
coin is preparing some interesting sta
tistics regarding divorces granted in Ne
braska Prom the figures at present
compiled Madison conuty shows up ns
the banner divorce county of the state
population considered Lancaster has
failed to file n report and the only
county surpassing Madison in the num
ber granted is Douglas Madison county
is credited with 29 divorces during 1000
12 of which were granted at the request
of the wife and 17 at the husbands re
quest This may be considered n poor
showing for domestic felicity in the
county but there ore many happy homes
to refute the imputation of the divorce
court
The late John J Ingalls of Kansas is
accredited with the following views re
garding death In the democracy of the
dead all men at last ore equal There is
neither rank or station nor prerogative
in the republio of the grave At this
fatal threshold the philosopher ceases to
be wise and the song of the poet is si
lent Dives relinquishes his millions
and Lazarus his rage The poor man is
txs rich as the richebt and the rich man
as poor as the pauper The creditor
loses his nrury and the debtor is ao
quitted of his obligation There the
proud man surrenders his dignities the
politician his honors tho worldling his
pleasures the invalid needs no physi
cian and tho laborer rests from unre
quited toll Hero nt Inst is natures
final decree in equity Tho wrongs of
timo are redressed Injustice is expiated
tho irony of fato is refuted tho unequal
distribution of wealth honor capacity
pleasure and opportunity which makes
life so cruel and inexplicable n tragedy
ceases in tho realms of death Tho
strongest there has no supremacy and
tho weakest needs no defense The
mightiest captain succumbs to tho in-
viuclblo adversary who disarms aliko
tho victor and the vanquished
