OUR IDEAL PRESIDENT.
Judge George H. Williams,
Oreson' s errand old man, who
served as attorney general in the
cabinet ot President Grant paid
the following tribute to Presi
dent McKinley in his speech at
Hillsboro, Saturday afternoon:
I believe in PresideMt McKin-
lev, and I want to see him re
elected. I do not claim that he
is the embodiment of human
wisdom and not liable to make
mistakes like other meOj but I
do say that he is honest able and
patriotic, and in my judgment
has made an excellent president
To pick a flaw here and there in
an administration is no just way
to judge its merits, but all of its
acts should be taken together
and the result of these made the
criterion by which to judge ot
its1 merits or dements.
There never has been and
never will be an administration
entirely free from faults and er
rors. .Napoleon said success was
the test of merit and whethsr
this be true or not it accords
with th? common judgment of
mankind 'and with the juaginent
of the people of the country as
to the administration of public
affairs, and I say that no admin
istration of our government has
been more successful than the
administration of William Mc
Kinley; successful in the achieve
meat of peace, successful in the
operations of war. No one so
far as I know questions, the in
tegrity, patriotism and good in
tentions of the president, but
some say that he is weak, vacil
lating and too anxious to find out
and follow public opinion. I
recollect distinctly when the
same charge in substance was
made against Abraham Lincoln.
Wade, Chase and many others
said that he lacked backbone and
was afraid to do what was right,
that he was waiting to find out
what the people wanted and
much more to the same effect,
but subsequent events demon
strated that it was good judg
ment and not weakness that dic
tated his course. Bullheaded
ness is not the highest quality of
statesmanship. I hold as a gen
eral proposition that the presi
dent has no right to enforce his
individual opinion against the
will of the people, and contrary
to the judgment of congress.
His functions as proscribed by
the constitution are to make
recommendations to congress
and execute the laws, and if
congress does not accept his
recommendations it is not his
duty on that account to engage
in a war with that body. He
may accept the judgment of
congress, though contrary to his
own opinion, and at the same
time be a strong man and a
statesman. The veto power was
intended to be exercised only in
exceptional oasos. When the
president of the United States!
undertakes to say that everybody
and everything shall bow to his
will we shall have so far as he
dan bring it about what France
had when Louis XIV said, "I
am tho state. ' ' Ex-Senator Hill
said, referring to the dictation
ot Bryan to the democratic con
vention, that individual im
perialism was as bad as national
imperialism, and I agree with
him.
President McKinley has ex
hibited all the firmness neces
sary to the success of his admin
istration. He has made no
theatrical display of indepen
dence to earn the praise of a few
mugwumps, but by a careful
and conciliatory course has pre
served the unity of the republi
can party, enabled it to fulfill the
1
7 ,aa W
piuunscs lnauc m loyo ana pro
pared it for victory in the com
ing presidential election. If
republican principles and poli
cies are worth anything; they are
worth preservation and they
cannot be preserved and put in
force without preserving the in
tegrity of the party by which
they are supported.
LET LAWTON ANSWER.
The Times has published Mr.
Bryan's answer to the charge
that he has encouraged Filipino
resistance to American authority,
and asks "if what Mr. Bryan says
is not true, what is the truth?"
No better answer can be given
to the query of the Times and
to Mr. Bryan, than the
following extract from a letter
written by General Lawton about
two months before he was shot:
"I would to God that the truth
of this whole Philippine situa
tion could be known by every
one in America a3 I know it.
the real history, inspiration and
conditions of this insurrection,
and the influences, local and ex
ternal, that now encourage the
enemy, as well as the actual
possibilities of these islands and
peoples and their relations to
this great Bast, could be under
stood at home, we would hear
no more talk of unjust "shooting
of government" into the Filipi
nos, or of hauling down our flag
in the Philippines. If the so
called 'anti-imperialists would
honestly ascertain the truth on
the ground, and not in distant
America, they, whom I believe
to be honest men. misinformed,
would be convinced of the error
of their statements and conclu
sions, and of the unfortunate
effect ot their publications here.
If I am shot by a Filipino bullet,
it might as well come from one
of my own men, because I know
from observations confirmed by
captured prisoners that the con
tinuance of fighting is chiefly
due to reports that are sent out
from America."
If the Times is honestly try
ing to ascertain the validity of
the charge against Mr. Bryan, it
will be convinced by the testi
mony of Lawton. "If it is satis
fied that Mr. Bryan is guilty, it
is trying to deceive its readers
who may not be in possession of
all the facts and ought to be
ashamed of itself.
Who can question the honesty
of opinion voiced by the fearless,
noble Lawton, whom all the
nation mourns? Without politi
cal ambition, and without
object or purpose beyond that of
faithfully serving his country,
he speaks out the blunt sincere
feelings that welled np from his
big heart and are confirmed by
intimate acquaintance with the
facts he unselfishly discusses.
BRYAN ANSWERS SCHURZ.
Carl Schurz has made another
reply to Secretary Gage, in
which he" attempts to hoodwink
himself and other gold standard
men into the belief, that if elect
ed Mr. Bryan will not be able to
undo the splendid work accom
plished by .this administration
for our ourrency system. Mr.
W. J. Bryan is probably the
best authority to speak upon
this question, and his words are
a sufficient answer to Mr.
Schurz. Mr. Bryan savs:
"If there is any one whe be
lieves the gold standard is a
good thing, or that it must be
maintained, I warn him not to
cast his vote for me, because I
promise him it will not be main
tained in this country longer
than I am able to get rid ef it."
Our contemporary quotes from
that portion of the president's
message concerning trusts, and
asks, "What is honest co-operation?"
Well, just now Bryan
organs are telling us that Mr.
Jones' cotton-bale trust, Mr.
Croker's ice trust, Mr. McLean's
sugar trust, Mr. Valentine's ex
press trust, etc. , is 1 'honest co
operation."
The question arises, would
Carl Schurz have been so solicit
ous about the welfare of the Fili
pinos if Germany had been suc
cessful in her designs upon the
islands?
