One week $ 15 One month 50 One year 6 00 MONDAY MAY 1, 189 WHY THE WEST SHOULD GET IT Two reasons why the Western states should choose the speaker who is to be elected when the present congress opens will suggest them selves to everybody. The West has had the speakership a comparatively few times only, and has not had it at all since 1833, when Gen. Keifer, of Ohio, retired, after serving one term. The West furnished more Republican members to the . present house than the East', and in the election last fall it made gains in its Republican membership in the house, while the East scored losses. These two reasons, if standing alone, would entitle the West to the sperkersbip at this time. But these leasons do not- stand alone. The West is the progressive section of the couniry. The Republican party rigtnatea- in tue west. Until a little after the middle of the century the West was a stronghold of the Democratic party. When the De mocracy committed its folly of trying to make slavery national and freedom sectional, the West broke away from that party, and formed a new party. ; bearing the Republican name. Then the Democracy, which was invincible so long as it commanded the support of the West, was thrown into a minority, and it has been in the minority ever since. Everything which is enlightened and progressive in public policy manifests itself in the West earlier than it does in any other part of the country, and expresses itself more s vigorously. As nlieady intimated, the movement which defeated the Democratic conspiracy to diffuse slavery all over the territories, block emigration westward, and .check the ; tide of civilization was defeated by the revolt of the West. It has been , charged that the Democracy's base , money folly, as expressed in Pendle ton's "Ohio idee" in 1868 and in i Bryan's 4Gc-dollar infamy of 1896 ' originated : in the West. But the new and revised Ohio idea, that of , -1875, under which Hayes carried that state for governor on a 100c dollar platform killed the Pendleton folly. Under the leadership of an other Ohioan Bryanism was extirpat- : cd in 1896. The movement for . expansion in 1898 had its oiigin in : the West, and from thence swept all over the country. Every policy which lives, or deserves to live, re veals itself in the . Western states oefore it does anywhere else. In ; political and social matters the West gives the law to the country. The . progressiveness and potency of the West has been recognized in tiie ' national conventions of the Repub lican party by giving almost all the candidates "for , tfce presidency to the West. The party which has always taken its presidential nominee from the West, except ia the case of Ulaine, has shown a sense of the im portance of the West which should , be supplemented more frequently by the selection of a speaker from the same section tban has been . done hitherto. The West ought to get the speakership this year, and prob ablv will get it. Globe-Democrat. .
