Tho statesman who has the welfare

As Others See Us.
IT OFTEN happens that small men
in big position, In their eager
ness to make the most of a situa
tion, over-reach themselves nnd
end worse off than they began. While
t'sre is no positive evidence ns yet
that this was true of what Is known as
the state administration group of lead
ers in Wisconsin, when they tried to
dictate terms to friends of Senator
Spooner, the suspicion to that effect is
rapidly gi owing. Former Governor
Hoard, one of tho warm supporters of
present Governor La Follette but u
man of mental breadth and independ
ence, makes no concealment of his be
lief in the premises. He says:
"The recent state convention was
notable for a very conspicuous lack
of political wisdom on the part of Its
managers. Had they been wise to the
end of promoting caucus and taxation
reform they would have Indorsed Sena
tor Spooner unconditionally, and thus
taken him as an Issue out of all future
contests in the legislative districts.
No state convention can dictate
through its platform or otherwise to
the voters of any legislative district
what their choice snail be for the
United States senate. They aie the
masters of their own actions, and their
instructions to their legislative candi
dates are paramount and final. This
Is one of the elementary principles of
Republican politics. As the situation
now stands, the administration finds
Itself handicapped with a third and
most potent Issue, that of the election
of Senator Spooner, when by the exer
cise of a little political sense It could
have been avoided. There Is work
enough ahead to secure a legislature
favorable to caucus and taxation re
form without being loaded down by a
third issue." ,
Says the Milwaukee correspondent of
the Chicago Recoid-Herald, nn un
biased authority: "Already the friends
of Senator Spooner are organizing In
every legislative district 01 the state,
and the first thing demanded of a can
didate will be his unciunllfied pledge to
vote for tho return of the senator.
Everything else will be subordinated
to this. Those who are apposed to the
leforms for which Governor La Fol
lettQ stands and which aro pledged by
the party platform will take advantage
of this condition to secure as many
legislative candidates as possible who
arc opposed to the passage of those
measures. In this way they may be
able to obtain a majority of one or
both of the houses, which will effectu
ally block all attempts at reform the
next session, tho same as they did at
the last.
, "While tho chances at piesent nie
etiongly in favor of the re-election of
Governor La Follctto there aro stormy
times ahead. What the much talked
of stalwart bolt will amount to la u
question that no ono can answer sat
isfadtbrljy at the present time. Near
ly" every man haB a different opinion.
The .chances uro that If tho Spooner
men, among whom are counted the
stalwarts, secure tho nomination of a
Ify&emajorlty pf the legislators It will
hSVo llttlo effect. That wing of the
paityis Spooner to a man, and will
come out to vote for candidates for
the legislature who aro for him. They
are also composed of men whose boast
has been that they have never bolted
the tlckot. There may be a few hun
dred who will go to tho extent of vot
ing for a Democratic candidate for
governor, but they will bo compara
tively few, There will be many more
wfio will simply content themselves
w(jh scratching tho head of the ticket,
wJUIe voting the remainder. In such
case the governor may be tound some
thjunands behind the rest of the ticket,
es;V-na tho case ,wth Governor Scofleld
in3S9STbut so far there Is nothing to
ehoV that his chances of election are
Infdonger."
The country at large that Is to say,
the' Republican portion of It has no
quarrel with Governor La Iolletto. On
the contiury, It desires to sec tho Wis
consin Republican ticket successful at
every point, and by impressive majori
ties. Butit has very great interest In
tho' return of John C. Spooner to the
place at Washington1 whero ho has
served bo brilliantly and helpfully to
party and country; and If this can bo
brought about only through the sacri
fice of state and local Issues nnd ambi
tions, It Is willing to pay the price.
Charles Emory Smith, former1 post
master general, and James M. lleck,
former Democratic United States dis
trict attorney and now assistant United
States attorney general, arc expected
to take the stump for Judge Penny
packer and the stntn ticket this fall.
They will be among the speakers at a
meeting to be held In the Academy of
Music, Philadelphia, early In Septem
ber nnd thou will tour the state with
Judge Pcnuypackor. The other speak
ers will Include Hnmltton L. Carson,
who made tho speech placing tho name
of Judge Pennypacker before the stato
convention, nnd City Treasurer J.
Hampton Moore. Judge Pennypacker
nlso will make an address nt the
Academy meeting In which he will out
line tho Issue on which tho contest will
be fought In November. The Academy
meeting -will open the campaign.

them by visitors and commentators
from afar. They should, we are told,
ho serenely Indifferent to foielgn cen
sure nnd ubovc having their heads
swelled by foreign praise. Possibly:
but that Is not human nature. "To
see ourselves as others see Us" is not
an unmixed evil. It has Its useful
points, especially when the "others"
aio honest, discriminating nnd Intelli
gent. A visitor who compiles with these
requirements nnd who is now telling
the world what he saw in the United
States is Ludwig Mnx Goldberger, a
German writer of repute. In the main,
he It cordially complimentary. Ours
is the land of "unbounded possibili
ties" nnd the average American is both
proud of the fact and anxious to Im
part knowledge of It to the guest with
in his gate. Says Mr. Goldbergcr:
"Everybody seems filled with the
Idea that the stranger should sec how
great and how strong the country Is,
In the course of my eight months of
study throughout the Union I found
open doors everywhere inviting investi
gation, and nowhere did I moot the
contrary. On all sides I saw unusual
but not unseemly activity, Industrious
and ambitious men. 'It Is a big coun
try' that is the designation which the
citizen of 'the United States applies
with lespectful admiration to his fa
therland, for 'great,' estimated by
measure, weight and numbers, im
presses him. Rut even our cooler judg
ment must concede greatness to tho
United States, because of the nation's
accomplishments."
The great results are not lookedfupon
as chance or luck, and Mr. Goldberger
points to the year 1901. The assassina
tion of the president, poor crops, fall
In the metal market, the Northern Pa
cific corner and its effect on the ex
changes, strikes and falling off In pro
duction were "events," he says, "which,
singly or collectively, would have
worked to the detriment of the coun
try if the economic foundation were
less strong. 1 do not deny that In the
United States, as well as in every oth
er country where a high stute of pros
perity has been leached, a reaction
must come. Such winter storms are ns
unavoidable over theie ns they were
elsewhere, and some indications are
already to be seen In the magic gar
den of the Union. But the country is
so blessed with earth's treasures, It Is
equipped with such Inexhaustible re
sources, Its Industries are equipped
with such wonderful and complete ma
chinery, that the worst winter storms
can be weathered."
In proof of this optimistic view the
writer calls attention to the revival af
ter tho panics In "the nineties." With
the Philippine Islands tho population
of the United States is put down at 88,
000,000, "hardly more than G per cent,
of the population of tho earth, accord
ing to the late.st estimate. This 5 per
cent, has, however, possession of 23 per
cent, of all the cultivated land of tho
earth." The writer then gives the sta
tistics showing the product of wheat,
corn, Iron, copper, petroleum, etc.,
cliowliiE the percentage contributed to
the world's markets by the United
States. It Is shown that tho United
States furnished 84,5 per cent, of the
cotton manufactured between 1S35 and
1000, that thff increase In the produc
tion of wheat from 1S70 to 1001 was 217
per cent, and of cotton In the samo
time 236 per cent. In 1870 r.2,000,000 torn
of coal were mined. The umount In
1001 was 200,000.000 tons, nn Increase of
800 per cent.; the Increase In Iron oro
was 887.5 pcr;cent., and In steel 10,750
ppr cent;
"Rut the possibilities have not yet
been reached," says Mr. Goldberger,
"and ono only realizes that fact when
one makes the tour of the land from
the Atlantic to tho Pacific; when one
visits tlio workshops, comes In touch
with tho commercial machinery and
the men through whoso management,
which may at times have been reck
less, the United States reaches Its
commercial .greatness." His trip to
the far West, his observations In the
fuctorles, mines, workshops and on the
railroads, disclosed to the tourist "the
giant strength of the nation." Tho
hazardous point seen by the writer lies
In tho fact that the new industries,
with their muny ramifications, aro so
closely associated wrth powerful Indi
viduals that the withdrawal of the lat
ter would lead to embarrassment for
a considerable time. "The greatest
powers of tho Old World," ho says,
"were allowed to develop, and suffered
no shock when citizens were forced
out of the line of activity, But If J.
Plerpont Morgan, Bhould be called away
today the values of all the great crea
tions whose Intellectual head and
financial prop he had been would be
thrown Into contusion. Then It may
bo demonstrated whether there is suf
ficient commercial energy left to con
tinue, and If the financial foundations
of tho Industries in (heir present gigan
tic proportions are worthy of exist
once." Tho writer thinks It wrong to con-
rlomn tho American because of. his
eagerness to make money, because ho
accomplishes hlB objects In a "decent
..... i.Tne inws of tho United States
aro somewhat elaBtlc, and the Ameri
can clllzen goes tho path laid out uy
the law. Hut 11 man's word Is Bacredi
Every man demands that his fellow
man weigh carefully what ho prom
ises. Tho business man of tho United
States knows no higher ambition thnn
the proper conduct of his business and
the realization of business success

cd'work. Ho does not forglvo or for
get nn abuse of commercial propriety,
nn.t Hint ,rlvAa him ttin rnnsoloUsness
of strength of character, for which ho
hna no equal. The American business
man considers cnrefully and long bo
fore ho enters a business undertaking,
But when once he has done so he Is
In It with heart and soul, and he may
bo counted upon ns an active co-laborer
worthy of every confidence. This
description certainly will not nt every
case, but It Is typical of the commer
cial life us 1 saw It In circles' which
were considered standard. People
speak wrongly of tho nervousness pro
duced by the rnce for weulth on, tho
other side. The contrary Is the fact.
One sees endless uctlvlty and ceosc
lcss Industry, and always industry, but
tho nerves of the Industrious ones are
of steel, and not to be shattered."
And this Is true. There Is a good
deal of fiction in tho common talk of
the killing: pace of modern life. No
doubt tho pace Is swift, especially
when you dissipate your energies and
take no thought of tomorrow. But
there Is yet to be proof conclusive that
the average American of today docs
not live as long and enjoy life as well
as did his grandfather; while as for
making comparisons with Europeans
of similar station, one must remember
that what is meat In some cases may
be poison in others. We work and we
play In accordance with our customs.
Neither would fit the leisurely Old
Worlder, but his ways would quite as
ill fit the rushing, hustling Yankee.
It is not surprising to know that Mr.
Pattlson is not so hopeful now ns he
was immediately after his nomination
that he will have the distinguished
honor of serving a third term as Gover
nor of Pennsylvania. Every day the
evidences multiply, and there is re
foundation whatever for the Democra
tic hone of a bolt against the Republi
can state ticket. The independents, or
insurgents, who supported Judge Yerkes
nnd Mr. Corny last year are satisfied
with the nomination of Judge Penny
nacker and will undoubtedly, with few-
exceptions, support him. More than
that. .1 Democratic contingent of con
siderable proportions will not support
Mr. Pattlson.
m
The demand for free coinage of sllvei
liv the Missouri Democratic convention
Is a setback to the plans of the faction
which proposes a reorganization of the
nartv on hard money lines. They are
confronted with themecesslty for a plat
form so elastic that It may be construed
to mean cheap money in Missouri, Ar
kansas and elsewhere in that section,
while it is interpreted to favor sound
money in New York, New Jersey nnd
Pennsylvania. It Is 11 serious question
what can be done to harmonize a party
which is dhided-withln Itself ns Is the
Democincy of the country at this time.
Edison says that within thirty years
the electric automobile will have dis
placed the horse and that all of the
railroads will use electric motors. It is
to be hoped for the good of that gen
eration that none of the people who run
automobiles about our streets today
will be allowed to take charge of the
locomotives.

The fact that the battle of Barcelona,
which according to accounts was con

"The Tattler" of the Philadelphia Ledg
er relates that tho Rev. Alexander Alli
son, Jr., pastor of tho Southwestern Pies
bvtcil.m church of that city, in a lecent
sermon on tho subject of "Lying," lllus
tinted his text with numeioii8,stoiies, and
ono of tliowj showed" how, even In chinch,
11 man's f.iUo pildu sometimes leads him
to prevarication. A young mini took his

"Oh, that's nothing," ho icpllcd. "I

Just' then tho deacon came with tho
plate, and Geoigo dropped a coin. Every
thing seemed favorable, and tho young
man beamed with a senso of generosity.
Then the minister made tho announce

tho wholly unexpected announcement of
tho day's collection,
"The collection today," said he, "was

JAKE DALE.
A new poet, Joseph Mills Hanson,
whose verse VemlndB ono strongly of
Bret Harte's earlier and breezier
verses, has just begun to have his work
noticed by the magazines. In the Au
gust number of Leslie's Monthly there
is a ballad by him called "Jake Dale,"
which Is one of the best things he has
yet published. 1
What, stranger? You never hecrd tell o'
Jake,
Jake Dale, o' tho "Lucky George?"
You must a' been laired in the East, my
son.
If you never clapped cars to tho yarn
that's spun
Of Jakey Dalo an' the race he won
In the year o' tho' big Ice gorge.
Come Maich In the spring o' 'SI,
An' the river broke at Plerie,
An' como rantin' down on tho clean
lampagc.
She marked M on the Yankton gauge;
Which I leckon you know is some of a
stage,
An' sho covered the bottoms here.
Yeh see that pint acrost the bar
With tho ilftle o" shoal below?
Well, that's where tho widow o' ole Buck
Slack
Onco't had a claim nn' a dilft-wood
shack
Where she lived nn' slaved with her
young-un pack.
All which was some time ago.
Well, wo on the "George" had tumbled
out
Tho roar o' the jam was wild
When wo heard a cry through the shilek-
ln' night;
An' theio on the pint, in the palo moon-
linht,
A wavln' nn" yellln' with all her might,
Stood Buck Slack's youngest child.
When all nt once wn heerd a yell,
An' down 'cross the willow bank,
A' lnyln' a courso that was skeercely
snug,
Camo Jakey Dale, with his whisky jug,
As drunk ns tho mato of a log-raft tug
An' a-swcailn' somethln' lank.
"You rust-chawed fragments o' junk,"
scz he,
"Now what do you think you've found?
A-stnndln' round on this old bilge tunlt
Like a bunch o' frogs on a floatin' plank;
Bo yeh lookln' for gold In yon cut-bank?"
An' then he heerd that sound.
As quick ns tho jump of a piston-rod
Ho was over tho wheel-box guard;
An' before wo could flgger on stoppln'
him.
He had slashed tho falls from the long
boat's rhn
An' was out- nast tho slush 0' the chan

A-pullIn' quick an' hard.
When he shoved hor oft from tho gumbo

Sho iceled llko a sawyer snag.
Then tho cm rent caught her along tho

An' sho whirled around and shot down
stream.
With tho foam from her bow like n cloud
o' steam.
As fust as a red-tall stag.
Ho Jammed her bow through the huckln'

Till tho painter floated free.
With blinded eyes nnd drlpptn' skin
Ho fought for the race ho had set to win
Like n soldlor fights, till tho Ico lolled In

But he'd got her up to lopln' rango
An' wo hauled her to tho rail.
