THE FORCE BILL.
A MI''K"" Vlw of Whnt It Mann to
Tim ttctmblican national platform, In
jftnSin(fo very mild and guarded, bnt in
langwitf0 plain enongnro re unaerstooa
.cnnliiiH to tlio real moaning of it. de
mantis that "such laws shnll bo enacted
and enforced as win secure to very cm
fpn, bo lie rich or poor, native or foreign
born, whit or black, the sovereign right
fto vote! guaranteed ny the conntita
ion." Laying aside tho fact that the
constitution does not guarantee to any
of the classes mentioned nor to any other
iOhrxis the right to vote, the real mean
big of this plank is the doctrine that the
arrathern states of this Union shall go
back to the days or reconstruction, when
the negro took possession of our southern
empire Just ns the barbarians took pos
session of the Roman empire. When
the war closed a "force bill" was passed
br virtue of which the federal govern
roont guaranteed that "every citizen of
the United States," to quo to thelangungo
of the latest Republican platform, "shall
be allowed to cast one free and unre
stricted ballot in all publio elections."
This language is as innocent in form an
would be a section from the sermon on
the mount, bnt it means much mischief
It means that the negro shall again be
given the domination of the south as he
had it during the reconstruction period.
Tbe younger generation, whieh was in
its infancy during that period of tho
white man's woe, will scarcely be able
to realize what the south Buffered when
all legislatures were black, and when
tho laws were mode by ignoranco too
dense even to Btoal intelligently. Dur
ing that period the southern states were
saddled with debts aggregating fSD,
828,584. Annual taxes increased ?5,
000,000. And then $.100,000,000 were
stolen, and not a negro in tho south to
day can show in thrift and wealth the
evidence of his crimes. Tho New Or
leans Times-Democrat well says that "it
was the greatest steal of modern times;"
but why it should not have called it the
greatest steal of all times it is difficult
tr explain. It is this regime to which
tho Republican platform demands a re
turn. Republican orators nre trying to
ignore tnis demand or their platform.
hot platforms are things mnde at mid
day.
Presidcut Harrison is fully committed
to the force bill doctrine, and must
stand of fall upon the issuo. The At
lanta Constitution well expresses the
prevalent memory of the south concern
ing a past which will never be restored
with the consent of tho intelligent por
tion of the American pooule, thus:
Nor was this immense debt the only
evil under the federal force bill and
negro rule policy. There was no secur
ity for life, liberty and property. Tbe
two races were always in collision
Commerco and industry lagged; capital
tied from the south; mob opposed mob,

Joeiah Quincy, chairman of the na
tional Democratic committee on cam
paign literature, ably sustains the pres
tige of his honored name. He was born
in 1859, was graduated from Harvard in
1880 and was admitted to the Suffolk
bar in 1888. He was a member of the
legislature of 1887, 1888, 1800 and 1831.
JOSIAH QUINCY.
He became secretary of the Civil Serv
ice Reform league in 1881, of tbe Tariff
Reform league in 1883 and of the
Democratic state executive committee
in 1890. In 1881 he was made chairman
of the executive committee He was
instrumental in forming the Young
Hen's Democratic club in 1888 and be
came its first president.
Let's Be Consistent.
If the usual taxes, above necessary
protection and higher than war taxes,
are advisablo in forming tariff laws.why
not make them positively prohibitory?
Why not shut up the United States as
China was formerly closed in? What
was the object of the marked increases
of taxes in the McKinley bill? Was it to
reduce prices or to drive out foreign
trade? If it reduced prices, what have
"ur manufacturers gained? Hartford

A ritlful, Halting Step.
The McKinley scheme was not de
signed to put tho taxes into the public
treasury, but into the pockets of tlia
trust, by meuns of price raising duties

reciprocity is that it is u halting stop in

The Republican purpose, accerding
to a Washington paper, to make an "on

ticularly at the Virginias, Alabama and

"FITNESS THE TEST."
THE ROCK BOTTOM FRINCIPLE OF
THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY.
Onr Government ut frmeut tse Its
fewer to Dnrreano Mm freedom of the
Fit to Italians the t'nfit Capitalists
AMeil. TVnrklnirmen Injnrerl.
"Fitncssi Hhould be tle sole test," nald
Mr. Cleveland, in shaking of public
office. And where freedom is to exist,
fitness mast be the teot in everything,
and the use of government must be only
to allow the test to be made.
A government plainly commits grosH
wrong when it Interferes against fitness
and in behalf of unfitness. Unless this
is true and nnless its truth is self evi
dont, nothing can be established as tru-
In political economy and in the scienc i
of political government.
In the affairs of a free people the
question of fitness is raised and deter
mined incessantly. Every transaction
of business, every exchange of any kind,
whether of labor or its product, involves
it. And before any such exchange i
possible it must be determined in some
way, either by free bargain or by com
pulsion nsod against one of the parties
to the bargain.
"IIow much of my kind of work ought
I to give you for a certain amount of
your kind of workr is the bottom ques
tion with a free people, and it is only
the question of fitness. Stated in an
other way it is, "How much of my time
ought I to sJve you in exchange for a
certain amount of your time?"
And thus stated it carries its own an
swer with it in another question, "What
have yon done heretofore to fit yourself
to make my use of your time so valua
ble to me that I should give you thin
.
quantity of the products of my time?"
In trade the answer is: "Here is what
have produced or earned. I offer it in
exchange for so much of what you have
produced or earned." In co-operation
in production the question is, "What
are you fit to do in return for such 11
share of onr joint product, or for so
much money a day in wages as ifc
equivalent?"
Wherever thera is free bargain and
unless bargain is free there is no freo
dom everything raises and turns on the
question of fitness. Justice demands
that the highest fitness shunld receive
the highest return, and this is only pos
sible under freedom.
Let us imagine a system nnder which
a confession of unfitness would be suffi
cient to secure for the confessedly unfit
privileges and advantages superior to
the rest and at the expense of the rest!
Could we imagine a government more
unjust in theory or more opposed in
practice to all the laws of nature and
civilization?
In such a government the unfit would
apply to the lawmakers, saying: " We are
not fit to secure the advantages we wish
unless you compel others to help us.
But with such compulsion in our favoi
ana against those who are more fit than
we for independence we solemnly nrom-
ise that we will help those who are
even less fit than we are."
Such a government must use its force
to decrease the freedom and to lessen
the independence of the fit for the bene
fit of the confessedly unfit. And such a
government we have now in America.
Every claim made for help under the
compulsion of law, forcing others to
give it, is based on confessed unfitness,
and it is a plea that superior fltnes?
ehould by ,orce of law aubjected to
this eonfess.i nnfitniwa "Wo 4
to survive on an independent basis," says
a combination of capitalists. "We can
not get along at all unless those Ameri
cans who are more fit for independence
than we are by law compelled to aid us.
If we do not have the privilege of this
compulsion over others through laws
passed for our benefit we will have to
close up and quit."
lliis is the argument, and the answei
is: "Close up and quit if you are not fit
to keep open and going. The quicker ;
the better. And if you are so unfit thai
1 e , """. y. 8 to the
poorhonse, which is the only privilege a
Jut government can concede to unfit-
e it the expense of fitness."
cTtXS
1.1'. J .1 1 . ... .
uinpas is iuq soie tesi as rar as orov-
ernment is concerned in any and all its
relations with the individual. The gov
ernment owes no help to the unfit, bo
cause government is compulsion, and ta
restrict the liberties of those who are fit
for freedom and independence to civa
privileges to those who are not fit is to
create anarchy; to destroy the only
foundation on which government cari
securely rest the foundation of fitness
the maintenance of the test of fitness
in all the relations between man and
man.
The unfit should bo helped by the freo
action of the fit. To deprive them of
free action, to maka the contribution foi
unfitness compulsory, is destroy free
dom and to make justice impossible.
No government can long endrtro on
such a basis. St. Louis Republic.

It is foolish to pretend that the De

of tho advantages that have accrued
and must still accrue from the unpopu

cling to that position and denounce the
