A Proper Sound Money Plank.
If the Republican national convention
at St. I.nuls w Ixhe.M to adopt a common
aense money plunk It should Incorporate
Into Its platform something; like thin:
"The Republican party always has
stood, standi today, and always will
stand for sound money I but It sees no
reason why It uliould be expected to dif?
Its knife Into the vitals of the men who
believe in Its declaration, at Minne
apolis, In 1892, In favor of honest bi
metallism; and It expressly repudiates
the Idea that It Is for the Interest of the
American people, who are the largest
producers of silver In the world, to try
to depress the commercial value of sil
ver bullion by a political warfare on
all who hope once nKutn to see silver
elevated, by International agreement,
to a parity with gold."
A plank like this might not please the
extremists, who seem just now to be
doing most of the shouting on this sub
ject, but It would express what we be
lieve to be the sentiment of three
fourths of the great middle classes,
which carry In their keeping the fate
of our political parties. Among this
medial mass there Is absolutely no sym
pathy for either gold or silver mono
metallism, either of which would mean
the doubling of the wealth of the rich
and the multiplication by two of the
debts of the poor. The people are sat
isfied with the American money of the
present time! They realize that when
they get a dollar now It means 100 cents,
the world over: and they don't care to
make that dollar one cent cheaper or
one cent dearer. ......
Should a time come, however, when
the older nations of Europe should feel
.that they have not a sudlclent quantity
of gold to serve as the basis of their
money Issueg und should want us to join
with them, In a rehabilitation of silver,
this class of American citizens would
not expect the government at Washing
ton to turn a deaf ear to the invitation,
but would favor a speedy and a sincere
acceptance, to the end that our natural
stock of silver ore might be worth as
vmuch In proportion to gold as It used
to be worth before the creditor nations
conspired to demonetize silver and thus
make It twice as didicult for those who
owed them dcbla to liquidate that In
debtedness. In other words, the great
mass of the plain people of the 1'nited
States are hinietalllsts In theory, and
are firmly opposed to tho artificial lluc
tuatlon of either metal by political agi
tation for the purposes of speculation.
Brother Bayard's frantic uppeal ko
the Almighty 'to help the country which
objects to paying $17,uM a year to an
ambassador fur traducing It abroad
Imply superadds Irreverence to asin
Inlty. American Sympathy for Cuba.
We cannot apree with the views of a
correspondent who writes, on another
page, that the motives of senators fa
vorable to Cuba arise from a covetous
lies.i of Cuban territory. So far as wc
have followed the recent discussions of
the Cuban revolution In congress and
In the prewi we hnve not seen an Inti
mation that the American people covet
the island of Cuba.
In the fulnepa of destiny Cuba will
undoubtedly become a part of these
Vnltetl States. By position It Is logic
ally ours. The Wish ot a majority of
Us educated native citizens probably
Ik for Incorporation with this republic.
But thia question has not yet been
reached. It may not be reached for
centuries. Many difficulties Intervene,
entirely apart from the claims of
Spain. The race problem In Cuba would
under most favorable conditions be for
many years a barrier. I'Jider the sway
of Spain, Cuba has had no free schools.'
The mass of her poorer population Is
Ignorant, In the extreme. Before this
large element could be accepted Into
American citizenship, It would need to
be educated and civilized. The admis
sion of the colored race to citizenship
prior to its qualification for such priv
ileges has taught Americans the wis
dom of caution In such wholesale' ex
periments with the franchise. ... '-.,
At the present time, the sympathies
of the American people are with the
Cubans because they recall that In the
declaration of their own Independence
their .fathers set forth as Inalienable
certain rights which Puln has for years
ruthlessly denied to the people of Cuba.
The American who docs not sympa
thize with Cuba's aspiration for home
rule is falsti to the principles upon
which his own government was found
ed. The question of territory pales Into
insignificance beside the Immeasurably
paramount question of tho right of the
2.000,000 inhabitants of the island of
Cuba to govern themselves in their own
way, free front outside interference or
dictation.
The time will probably come when the
small-gauged political faddists who are
busy Just now Cogging the heels of real
statesmen like Senators Cuilum and
Davis will be glad of a chance to lick
their hands.
Fighting .lack Kobinson.
"Jack" HobiiiHou an a candidate fur
I'niled States senator is, In ull can
dor, not the highest conceivable ex
ponent of the possibilities of Pennsyl
vania politics: but "Jack" Robinson, in
his way, I nevertheless a good bit -i
a man. Because we cannot Indorse his
senatorial candidacy is no reason why
we should fall to recognize and to ap
plaud hl.t frankness and his niuiiliness
as a political lighter. These qualities
are not new to the public, but they ure
conspicuously re-demonstrated in the
manner In which he accepts the verdict
of the Rlnlr county primaries.
Interviewed Tuesday nt Washington
Mr. Robinson suld: "Of course. I did
not expect to be defeated by us large u
majority as I was, und I Hatter my
self that had 1 been on the ground per
sonally I would have received a much
larger vote. I trusted too much to
others, and besides hud my own dis
trict convention to attend to. But Mr.
Wanumaker is a hurd cumlidnte to run
ugaiiiHt. He Is deservedly popular
among Republicans, as he has been a
faithful party man nnd has done ex
cellent service for the party. He has
muny friends and in certain localities
is very strong. I admire him very
much for his pluck In entering the pop
ular contest. I hope that other candi
dates for the- senatorshlp who have
been In hiding und have declined to
submit their names for a popular vote
ut the primaries will Imltute the ex
ample of Mr. Wanumaker and come out
and light In the open. I am willing to
abide by the decision of the Republi
cans ns expressed at the primaries."
This Is the talk of an outspoken and
candid man; a man who does not fear
to speak his thought or to go fairly be
fore the people when he wants anything
from them. It is the tnlk of a man who
can always tie found when wanted; who
does not sit on the feni'e or wait until
he can pick out the winning side'before
declaring himself. We don't think
"Jack" Kobinson Is the man for sen
ator; we don't think he stands the
ghost of a show of being elected to that
position, but we do think him the kind
of a fighter In ikiIUIcs whom people
can respect, regardless of whether ho
be friend or foe.
The way the American people flop
buck und forth from quasi-free trade
to ultra protection would be amusing
If it were less serious.
The Right Kind of President.
The voice of the people Is said by a
familiar uduge to be the voice of Clod,
but no observer of political movements
can reconcile this theory with a rever
ent view of the Creator, The people
are often fooled. They seem at times
to take a kind of mild delight In being
humbugged. The pendulum of their
folly is seldom at rest; most of the
tlmp It Is marking off vagaries and de
noting the rise and fall of fads.
If this characterization seems severe,
just take a look through political his
tory. Find how many times the people
have chosen the qualified man for the
responsible place und how many times
the fascinutlng figurehead whose al
luring presence Is made Ironical by his
mediocre brain. Comparisons are
odious; yet it Is sometimes necessary to
make them; and to those who are fond
of history we commend a study of the
political conventions of the United
States from the curliest time down to
the present, with especial attention to
the proKrtlon of really great nominees
to the merely average und less than
average but eminently respectable non
entities. Let this lesson of the past
apply to the Immediate future. Let
the Republican party decide to choose
not Its weakest sister, but Us strong
est und ablest man.
The people do not need a one-Idea
president. Thelr's is a government th-.
executive end of which Is too compli
cated, too exacting, too diversified for
that. The man who knows only one
subject muy mako u good professor at
a university, a good lecturer or a good
cabinet officer, but he would be beyond
his depth and out of his element u3
president. We need, for president, a
man of wldo and ripe experience; a
master of affairs und of men; u diplo
matist, a statesman and a politician
combined. Cuii such a man be found'.'
We believe so, ami we hope that the
people will take no other.

Nevertheless and notwill. standing,
Thomns C. I'littt yet boasts a record
breaking grip.
Governor Morton's Candidacy. .
It is fortunately hot tlia belief of
nny considerable number of Republi
cans outside of New York stale thut the
presidential candidacy of Ievl p. Mor
ton Is intended seriously. We call this
fortunate, because that candidacy rep
resents few things which the, Repub
lican party or the country at large
wants, and many things -which as a
matter of hard fact, it does not want...
Mr. Morton, to be sure. Is an amiable
and estimable banker of large wealth
and advanced age for whom, personal
ly, there Is much respect. Ills record
is honorable, if not brilliant; his abili
ties are creditable, if not extraordi
nary, but his entire circle of pnllticul
alllliatlons is limited to a section of the
country which to the great ntnss of the
American people, rightly or wrongly,
stands for money-making, und for that
alone. Ills name. Is not Identified with
litiy grcit principle appealing equally
to the . mill worker of New England
and t,e -the mine worker of Colorado,
to Tie" wool-grower of Ohio and the
sutftlr-Trfowar of Louielana, to 1 the
manufacturer, the mechanic and the
farm hand. It Is not Identified with
any brood policy of statesmanship nor
with any grand achievement of success
ful legislation. ' It Is a name utterly de
void of the national meaning and sig
nificance attaching,, for instance, to
the names of Allison, Cullnm, Reed or
McKlnlcy; a namii honorable enough
and clean enough but not broad enough
to fit the circumstances and the tra
ditions appertaining to the nominee
of the Republican party for the presi
dency of the United States.
On the contrary. Governor Morton's
name so far as U has political signifi
cance In this campaign, stands rather
for the alms of the great corporations
and nimnctal Institutions of Wall
street; for the ambitions of the Im
mense syndicates thut alternately fill
and empty the treasury of the J'nlted
Stutes ut generous commissions on
each transaction: for the economic
propaganda or the p.-eMe who hep. In
center the burden of the world's com
merce on the cold which tiny control; i
und, finally, for the personal ambitious t
of the tnosl diirlns political "b...t!i" in
the history of American politics, who
is generally credited with using the I
veii. ible r-oNernof ns u shield to liin.'
ulterior purposes. Tin nomination of
such a man by a national convention
of the i:e:.ulillcan purty Is us prepos
terous in conjecture as it would be
hazardous in realization.

tlnunts: "l.ove of country Is an ele
mental Virtue, like love of home, or hkv
honesty or coinage. The useful nieinlier
of u community Is tile i.ian who Ural
and loii-most attends to his own lights
and diilles, and who thereby beeomts bet
ter lilted to do Ills share In the common
duties of ull. The useful member of the
brotherhood of nations Is that nation
which realizes most fully lis rluhls i.a
a nation and its duties to Its own citi
zens. "Hvery educated man who puts himself
out of touch with the current of Ameri
can thought, and who on cunsplcuous oc
casions assumes ull altitude hostile to the
interest of America, Is doing what he
can to weuken the Influence of educated
men in American life. It is an admira
ble thing to possess rellnement and culti
vation, but the price Is too dear if they
must he paid for ut the cost of the rugKid
lighting qualities which make a man able
to do a man's work In the world, and
which make Ills heart beat with that love
of country which is shown not only in
readiness to try to make her civic life bet
ter, but also to stand up manfully for her
when her honor and Influence are nt stake
in a dispute with a foreign power."
Speaking of this tendency In hlxhly ert
uculeil men, Mr. Roosevelt goes on to
say: "The educate,! man must not be
misled by the sneers of those who always
'write 'patriotism' between Inverted com
mas. Timidity, sometimes. Is peculiarly
developed among educated men whose ed
ucation has tended to make them over
cultivated und over-sensitive to foreign
opinion. They are generally men who un
dervalue the greu.t fishllng qualities, wlt!f
oiit which no nation can ever rise to the
llrst rank. When u question of national
honor, or of national right or wrong, is
ut stake, no question of financial Interest
should be considered for a moment. Krl
Oration should Intensify patriotism, ami
patriotism must not only be shown by
striving to do good to the country from
wllliln, but by reudlness to uphold its
interests and honor, nt any cost, when
menaced from without. There Is a gen
eral and very unwholesome tendency
among certain educated people to lose the
power of doing etlleleivt work as they
acquire refinement. The man who for
gets that a real education must Include
the cultivation of the lighting virtues is
sure to manifest this tendency to Ineffi
ciency. It is exhibited on a national scale
by the educated men who take the anti
American Bide of International questions.
The anaemic man of refinement nnd culti
vation, whose Intellect has betn educated
ut the expense of his character, nnd who
shrinks from all those struggles through
which ulone the world moves on to great
ness, is Inclined to consider any expres
sion of the .Monroe doctrine as truculent
und Ill-advised."
Finally, he must have had the typical
Mugwump In his mind when h penned
this paragraph: "A certain limited num
ber of persons are fot.d of denying pa
triotism us a selfish virtue ami strive
with nil their feeble mluht to inculcate In
Its place a kind of mllk-und-water cos
mopolitanism. These good people are
never men of robust character or Impos
ing personality, utid the plea Itself is not
worth considering. Some reformers may
urge that, In the agesi distant future, pa
triotism, like the liulill of monogamous
marriage, will become a needless and ob
solete virtue: hut Just ut present the man
who loves other countries as much us he
does his own I quite us noxious n mem
ber of society ns the man who loves other
women as much ns he loves his wlf ."
