Many illustra tions of its truth are found in both foreign and domestic politics. William E. Gladstone, England's "Grand Old Man," began his public career as a Tory. Indeed Macaulay iu one of his essays speaks of him as "the rising hope of the stern, unbending Tories," but he lived to become the greatest Liberal of them all and the I the great railroad merger.

Only I the praise for the proceedings which n(innPar rplfttive. a son. lurvivea nun. a ,mr, iTvon that ! ended in Judge Thayer's oplnlon-an He was a California pioneer ef the days and rider tariff arguments. Even that illustrious tariff revisionist, Mr. Taw ney of Minnesota, falls into line with the stand' patters' war cry of "Stand by the president!" They will all come to it before long. Tawney is quicker In motion than the others that's all. If the people hope for any relief from the Dlngley rates they had better be vot bete noire of Queen Victoria. On the I lng the Democratic ticket They will contrary, his brilliant rival, the most brilliant Englishman since Lord Byron died, Benjamin Disraeli, Lord Beacons field, "the marvelous Jew," began as a radical of Radicals and died the chief of Tories, not only an earl and prime min ister, but the prime favorite of bis queen, whom he made an empress. Back of them was a greater than ei ther of them, who turned a complete eomersault, Sir Robert Peel, the high protective tariff premier who become the father of free trade in England. KJenry Clay's first speech in the sea utf was against uutjoim! banks, yet he ftftflds forth Ju history as their most doughty champion. He wrecked the old line Whig party because he could not Induce President John Tylef to nccept his views on that subject. "-Daniel Webster from being a rank free trader became a rank advocate of a stake and rider tariff, and his titanic rival, John Caldwell Cnlliouu of South Carolina, from bolus a iterate friend of protective tariffs came to regard them us unmitigated nuisances. Prcsident'3 Change of Base. Harper's Weekly charges President Roosevelt 'with' having been at one time an out and out free trader and that ho has somersaulted. I cite the above cases not to excuse Colonel Roosevelt, but to show that, even if lie has somersaulted, he has Illustrious .ompiiny. Harper's says: Mr. Roosevelt Is a young man still, but when he was much younger than he in now he was a free trader of such vigorous hue that, on one occasion, lie announced ihat he would "die for. free trade." l'rac tlcally he has since learmd nothing con cerning the tariff, but he hm accepted the post hoc propter Iih rt f paUloio ohy to which proteotionliti hv reported in these day of the degeneracy of thtlr doctrine, and he Is, therefore, ready te ay, with home market olub and other like disinterested authorities that k cause we are now prosper,! wo are so because of the tariff law. Tfcta Ik utter folly, of cwm, V the preeMeat not know It because since the day whea he was a crusading knight at tt Ura.4 he has learned that the doctrine of ex treme protection Is essential to the life of his party. Mr. Roosevelt, besides being very young, younger perhaps than David CopperfielU seemed to be to Bteerforth'a vulct, Is an ardent party politician, lie has Indeed the disposition to "reform within the party," but this disposition does not carry him very far once It has hrouKht him in conflict with the party leaders who write the platforms and make the nominations. So, after trying for a time to he that Impossible thing, a free trade Republican, he has gradually nettled down Into a protectionist of the most advanced type, lie Is of the school which says: "Stand pat;" "no revision at all; -evislon only by its friends," which, being Interpreted, means revision only by those who insist upon maintaining the existing exorbltunt rates of duty which nre so enormously Increasing the cost of living In this country and which are ulso Incidentally giving to some of the trusts, those which are most flagrant from the president's own point of view, that mo nopoly of the home market that sub stantially kills the competition which th president believes to bo th life of health ful trade. By tae way, has not Harper's Week ly Itself somersaulted on several Im portant questions within the memory of men now living T First and last eertniu ribald nnd bla tant Republican organ grinder have had much to say about Democrats be ing rend out of the purty, and they havo had lots of fun. It will not be Impertinent, therefore, to remind these hilarious lnteuse burners that they would do well to set their own house hold in order before they venture on the doubtful and hazardous experiment of straightening up the affairs of other folks. A Question of Laughing. Everybody conversant with the fact will admit that tne American Econo mist Is not only a Republican paper, but that It Is also the organ of the "Btand patters" or "whole hoggers" amouu the Republicans on the tariff questloa. It has been for months reading out of the Republican party all those wh support "the Iowa Idea" or who In any way advocate tartf reftaleu.

The Ecouomtst bus also read out of the party that eminent lleptibltcun statesman, Hon. George E Roberta, director of the mint and also editor of the Pre Moines Register and leader. DlTers and sundry of the smaller and more obscure Republican. have been placed outside the breast' works by the Economist, nil of which j ni's to show Unit the Republican or-L-an grinder laughed prematurely t, limit Democrats belntf rend out of the i-.'irtv. which Illustrates the old sayl'm that "he laughs best who laughs last." A Certainty.' Evidence accumulates that the "re formers" among Republicans have been lashed iuto line.

Rieburd Olney of Boston some months ago loomed up large on the horizon as a presidential candidate.

St. Louis, has gone squarely back on Richard and has come out. flat footedly for Grover. What Olney thinks of that is not known generally. He perhaps thinks thoughts which could not be printed in any paper and seut through the mails. If he can't hold his own organ In line how can he hope to se cure support elsewhere? How can the Herald explain it going back on Ol ney? What has he done to be dropped like a hot potato? Teople like fidelity Mrs. Moody is visiting her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Little.
