HENRY C. DAVIS.
PARKER OR ROOSEVELT.
All popular government is a party
government. To have any effeotive
voice in the manner in which public
affairs shall be conducted, you must
necessarily yield some of your con
victions temporarily, and unite your
efforts with whatever organization of
men upholds tho greater number or
more important of these principles
that you believe should be put into
praotice. In other words you must
compromise and the carrying on of a
popular government either in school
district, county, state or United States
is bat a. sories of coropromlBos,
Conditions in the United States be
come, every year, more complex.
Among the multiplicity of questions
of policy that arise, it is sometimes
difficult to trace the principlos that
underlie the determination of those
questions. Indoed, it not unfrequeut
ly happens that the Republicans
adopt policies that are based on DoniO'
cratic principles, whilo as often the
Demcorats demand legislation that is
distinctively Republican. For this
reason it is often assorted that there is
no radical difference between tho two
parties. But it must be borne in
mind that the majority of questions
raised during political campaigns are
mere battle-cries for that particular
contost. Many others are of minor or
only temporary importance, and
really do not involve any important
principle of government, although by
the alluring phrases of the noisy dem
agogue they are given the appearance
of trausooudent importance.
Tlioro is a radical difforouco betwoen
the two partios-rth same difference
that existed between Hamilton and
Joffurson. As Hamilton stood for a
strongly centralized government, witli
the aotual power lodgod in the hands
of a few l'wlors, so Republicanism
stands for imperialism, baukei by a
few all-powerful corporations. As
Jefferson Btood for popular govern
ment, so Domooriicy Btands for the
rights of the people to govern thoni
solves. In tho present campaign, the can
didates of both partios are gold stan
. dard men. Both are closely identified
with tho interest s of capital and capi
talistic combinations.

Advertise tactfully. Give your best
thought to your advertising for pub
licity and nothing else will bring
trade. Advertise constantly and
catchy. Put what you have to say in
so many different ways that it will one

every one who sees it. Tho Courier is,

REALITY VERSUS APPEARANCE.
Wherein, then, lies tho difference
that should causo us to choose 0110
rather than the other? First and fore
most. Domocraoy teaches that tho peo
ple uro capable of governing thom
solvos that even on their mistakes
they may build a bettor system of gov
ernment. Republicanism teaches that
all political wisdom originates among
tho aristocracy of capital. Second;
Domoearcy advocates "equal rights for
all, special privileges to none. " Re
publicanism advocates tho giving of
special privileges to certain classes by
moans of a protective tariff. Third;
Democracy is opposed to militarism;
Republicanism favors tho building
of navies and the equipping of armies,
to be supported by taxes wrung from
an already ovor-lmrdoiiod people.
The real principle concerned in all
tho questions is tho centralization of
power. Shall wo havo a president
who obeys the voice of the people, or
shall wo have a dictator? By tho
doath of President McKinloy, Mr.
Roosevelt succeeded to the office of
chief executive. By every sort of
wrongful manipulation of the ma
chinorv of government that he came
into control of by his accidental and
unfortunate ascendanoy to power,
he complellod his nomination for the
presidency, and is now striving by
the same moans to compass his elec
tion. .
If you esteem your liporty highly,
vote against absolutism. The matter
is deserving of your best thought.
The idlo wind of today may be the
earthquake of tomorrow. On yon is
tho burden of government and you
must bear that burden for the com
mon good, for tho niomout you lay
it down a Caesar or a Kapoloou takes
it up to servo his own ambitions purpose.
There is much in tho history of past
ages and in the conditions of the preS'
out, to discourago tho reformer who
earnestly desiros to rid the eartli of
somo of its grossor ovils, at least, and
leavo Lit the better for his having
livod. Every thoughtful person must
realize that the world , with each sue
oeeding century is growing better, in
losing some of tho grossnoss and the
injustice tllat still are too common.
Yet tlieso improvements have seldom
como abont us tho direct result of re
form movements, conducted for the
express purpose of working such re
formation. The wonderful spread of Christ
ianity dates not from tho time of
Jesus but from the time of Constatine,
1 whose paganism was undisturbed by
his so-called conversion, and whose
subjects became Christians from
policy, not principle.
Protestantism was established in
England, apparently more as a result
of the laciviousness of Henry VIII,
than as the result of tho preaching
of earnest reformers. The reform acts
which marked the legislation of Eng
land during the fourth and fifth de
oades of the last century, seem not to
hare been the work of tho leaders of
the reform movement which found ex
pression in the march of thousands
of workiugmon against parliament
Tho original '"Coxy army" as in
tho schemes of wily politicians to re
tain their power by granting some
privileges to tho "dear people. "
Emancipation of slaves in America
was not apparently the culmination
of the work of the abolitionists, so
much as it was a war measure in a
oonflict brought about to a great ex
tent by tariff legislation. Drunken
ness is decreasing and even moderate
drinking is being frowned upon, not
so much, it apears, through the efforts
of temperance workers, as through
the factjthat employers find it to their
own benefit to employ men who do
not drink.
All these things toud to the idea
that tho merely sentimental, tho 'deal,
the abstract good, has but little place
iu tho real world. , There is much
to cause the young man to think that
his only chance of success lies iu a
