1 " a' CASK' OF COXSCIEXCK?
Editor IMiu.ii of tin- M.'dfWd M:iil lias what illicit. Ie
.ailed a positive talent for yetting on the wrotiK side of
public questions. There is no oilier paper as young as
the Morning Mail that has lost out so universally on every
thing espoused as the new daily, which is still giving away
papers to secure a circulation and will probably have to
indefinitely. Its latest break is as editorial champion of
the three 'c.oiiiieiliiieii, Messrs. Wormian.- Merrick and
Trowbridge, who voted recently to increase the number of
saloons in Hertford from' one for every ")0 population to
one for every :?) population, and then voted to put the
Hotel Nash out of business, as the Mail has discovered,
because of "the diet at es of their consciences and best
judgment." ; - ' , ,
The Mail, in common with the three coiiiieilmen, would
put the Hotel Nnsh out of business, presumably (this is
the only reason given) because Mayor Redely, who is a
stockholder in the Hotel Nash company, is also a stock
holder in the Hertford ; Publishing company, owners of
The Tribune. In this the Hail is actuated by spite, and it
is because the Mail constantly places its own petty personal
interests ahead of the interests of the public lhat it loses
all of the causes it champions, as well as the confidence
of the people.
"Every member of that council has a perfect' right to
vole on any matter in accordance with the dictates of his
conscience and as his best judg t tells him is right,"
says the Mail. CI ranted. But what kind of a conscience
is it that permits a vote to license a salo f shady repu
tation and refuses one to a first-class hotel i
What sort of a conscience has Mr. Trowbridge, when
it forces him, after having voted for every saloon license
issued in the eighteen months he has held office, to re I use
a license to the highest class bar in the city ! What variety
nf conscience has Mr. Merrick- who has voted lor every
liquor license except one since he became councilman -which
impels him to vote to put a film hotel out of husi
nessf What kind of a conscience has Mr. Wortinan, who
voted J'or three saloons and also voted to make possible the
increase in the number of'saloons, In cast a ballot againsl
the Hotel Nash, when the petition for a license was signed
by more representative citizens than ever before signed
with such an application?
What make of a conscience has Editor liliton, thai per
mits him to sanction the licensing of dives for fifteen years
without a protest, in his paper, and then compels him to
champion those who would deny a license to an excellent
hotel?
Of course coiincilincn have the right to vole as Ihey
plea.se on the public's business, but they are supposed to
vote for the best interests of the city and the people of
the eity. Is it to the best interests of the city to close the
leading hotel after having voted licenses to all sorts of
saloons? Did not the people of Med ford vote for a wel
town, and are these couneilnien obeying the wishes of' the
peojde they are supposed to represent I, What twaddle
this talk of conscience is in this connection.
The Tribune thinks thai in easting the deciding vote
to lieeiisc the hotel, the mayor acted for the best interests
of the community, regardless id' the fact lhat he was a
stockholder in the hotel. Had it I n the Hotel Moore
which is a rival hostelry, and also a credit to the city, his
vote would have been the same.
Mayor Rertdy is a stockholder in Ibis paper. So are
some thirty other cit izens of Med ford, who know a good
thing when they see it, and think it a good investment.
Had they thought the same of the Mail, probably they
would have as freely subscribed to its watered stock. The
controlling interest in The Tribune is held by the editor,
who alone is responsible for its policy, and is fully capable
of writing his own editorials.

national authority in an emergency, brush aside obstruc
tive state or local authority, and arrest the progress of a
rebellion."
All of which would be interesting if true, but it isn't.
Neither is centralization an issue. It is only a theory,
and Ur van's firm rule of his party doesn't bespeak a char
acter so vaccinating that he would fail to arrest the prog
ress id' a rebellion and a rebellion is among the most
improbable of events.
There is much besides a superficial similarity between
Roosevelt and Hryan. Roth are sincere, honest and coura
geous, both are fighting a common enemy in behalf of the
common people, but Roosevelt is fighting more blindly
than Bryan. He only sees the resultant evil and does not
seem to fully comprehend the underlying cause of the na
tion's trouble, legislation for special interests, and conse
quent corruption of national, state and municipal govern
ment to secure this special legislation- that the few may
pile up fabulous fortunes at the expense of the many.
That Roosevelt realizes in a vague sort of way what
the nation's trouble is, is shown by his warfare upon Wall
street, the source of national corruption, a vigorous, open
battle by a clean-em fighter. That he does not fully com
prehend it, is shown by his advocacy, while fighting graft,
of such vicious grafting measures as a ship subsidy, de
signed to enrich from the public treasury a trust he is fight
ing, and of a high tariff, creator of the criminal rich he
denounces; it is shown by fatal compromises in the hour
of his victories, like those of the railroad rate bill and beef
trust bill that left him the shell but the trusts the kernel ;
it is shown in countless omissions and commissions that
indicate that the president is fighting valiantly, but blind
ly, though always spectacularly.
That Bryan has a clearer idea of the nation's troubles
and the cause of present evils, due to unfair diversions
of the products of labor and unequal distribution of the
people's earnings is evident from his speeches and from
his advocacy of measures far in advance of his party. Bry
an believes that government ownership of railroads is
the ultimate solution of the railroad problem, though he
is willing to give government regulation a fairtrialfirst. lie
advocated measures twelve years ago that Mr. Roosevelt
has only picked up recently and adopted as new, showing
that both are traveling the same road, but that Bryan years
ago passed over the same ground Roosevelt is traveling
today.
Whether the remedies offered by either, and they are
not dissimilar, consisting mainly in the restoration of com
petition, will right matters is problematical, i.otn are
sincere men, both are born preachers and lead the nation
to higher ideals, both are head and shoulders above the
politicians of their party, and both have the faith, loyalty
and love of the common people, who believe them faithful
to their interests. The enthusiasm of the multitude for
bolh is unbounded. It is real, it is genuine, while that for
Tal'l, "the designated heir to the throne," is wholly manufactured.

What, you do not pretend to any thitt
we have not a war debt I
Ye I Hay that the American nation
never owed a dollar of a war debt.
When the- war wa declared over
in lSfifl mir wan expenses were paid

' Yet in the face of all this we, the
