place where ft Jury is needed, It is in a

strange that abuses have crept in, for a
man would have to b more than human
to unlta In himself th deliberation of
the legislator, the seal of th nubile
prosecutor and the Impartiality of the
judge.
XVarg Than ft Xbor Question.
While the laboring men have been the
first to complain of this denial of the
right of trial by Jury In cases of Indi
rect contempt. It ought not to be con
sidered a labor question. The Jury sys
tem Is so essential to the administration
of Justice that tha subject ought to ap
peal to all who make a study of the
sclenc of government. If cltlsans would
only ba on their guard against the be
ginning of evils, it would m very
easy to apply fteceaaary remedies, but
in tha atruggle for existence the voters
are orten lndirrerent to the application
of an erronebu principle until repeated
applications establish ft custom, and
In- time a custom crystallines Into law.
It behooves us, a lovers of our country
and aa the friends ol llbery, to insist
upon the Independence of the different
departments of our government- and
upon the maintenance of the right
which have been shown by experience
to oe essential to freedom ana self gov
ernment. The Jury system must be pre
served, and we cannot hop to preserve
It If, for any raaaon or under any pre
text, w permit anv ciusen to be denied
tne protection which It furnishes. .
According to th Declaration of Inde
pendenoet governments are Instituted
among men to secure to them tha en
joyment oi ineir maiienaoie ngnts.
Among these Inalienable rights, three
are specifically enumerated life, liberty
and the pursuit of happiness. The sec
ond and third, however, are really parts
of the first, for life means nothing to
the Individual if it is confined to mere
animal existence. Man is distinguished
irom me Drute in mat tne latter mere
ly eats and sleeps and dies, while man
is endowed by the Creator with Infinite
possibilities. His conscience must be
left free that he may fix for himself
the relation between himself and his
God. His mind must be left free that
he may devise and plan for himself, for
nis ramny ana ror nis fellows. Hla
speech must be free that he may give
to the world the results of his investi
gations and present to others the Ideal
which he Is trying to realize In his
worK. his pen must be free that he
may scatter seed thoughts to tha utter
most parts of the earth and leave to
posterity a record of hla work. He finds
in government the cheapest, as well
the sdrest, protection of this liberty, to
oe, io ininK, io speax, to act. ,
"Pursuit of XapplBMM" Deflated.
And what constitutes the pursuit of
happiness? Man must have home and
friends family and society. He must
have food or he will starve. He must
have clothing and shelter: he mint
have books; he must have instruments
with which to work. He must provide
uHJtMlPPrlod of strength for the
years when1 age dulls his energies and
benumbs his' hands. He may have am
bition, he may have willingness to work
and an environment that spurs him on;
but the government may encourage or
ii may aiscourage nis eriorts. uovern-

When I visited the valley of Jordan
I learned that it is fertile and product
ive, and yet instead of being cultivat
ed like the valley of the Nile, vast
stretches of territory He untitled. Why?
I was told that under the reign of the
sultan the toiler la not protected In the
enjoyment of the fruits of his toil. If
the farmer plants and tends his crop,
the roving Bedouins will sween down
from the hills at harvest time and carry
away the fruits of hi industry.
If the government does not assure to
the Individual the enjoyment of the re-
suit or nis errort. there is no stlmulu
to Industry.
We have th best government on
earth. It gives the largest liberty, the
greatest nope ana tne most encourage

this country. It is always necessary to
De on tne watcn to Keep tne instrumen
talities of government from being turned
to private gain.
ZAbofs Just Complaint.
One of the great problems of today
is to secure an equitable distribution
of the proceeds of loll. The material
wealth of this country Is largely a
Joint product; In factories few people
work alone, and on the farm a certain
amount of co-operation is necessary.
Where men work together, the armv
organization appll to some degree;
that Is. some direct, others are directed.
The difficulty has been to divide the re-
B-nIt fairly between the captains-of ln
dustry and the privates In the ranks.
As the dividing is done largely bv the
captains, it Is not unnatural that they
should magnify their part and appro
priate too large a snare: neither is it
unnatural that there should he com
plaint on the part of the tollers who
think tnat their recompense is Insufficient.
Mainly Question of Distribution.
The labor Question, therefore, as It
presents Itself at this time. Is chieflv
question or distribution, and the leg
islation asked for is legislation which
will sfcure to each that to which his
services entitle him. As legislation is
secured through the ballot, every one
should use the ballot to obtain the legis
lation necessary. The Democratic plat
form presents the Ideal toward which
the Democratic party Is striving, name
ly. Justice in the distribution of re
wards. The Democratic party proclaims
that seen. Individual should receive from
society a reward for his toll commen
