DR. SWALLOW WRITES OF PEACE
WITHIN THE PROHIBITION PARTY
To the bditor of the Telegraph:
Prohibition Party Peace vs. Party
PicQCS.
"He that cometh after me is pre
ferred before me."
"Ho must Increase; I must decrease. 1 '
Among honest men of deep convic
tion and unselfish motive superticial
differences frequently arise touching
the best methods to be employed in
the accomplishment of • desired re
forms. We say "superficial" because
truly noble hearts will not allow those
differences to cool their ardor or
diminish their efforts.
If the selection of a Prohibition can
didate for the presidency by the con
vention at St. Paul on July 18 is not a
trivial matter, neither is the question
of the length of time of his past service
In the party the moat serious one.
Present Qualification as a nominee and
future fitness as an official if elected,
coupled with his ability to get votes,
should far outweigh the question of
length of party service.
John, the forerunner of Jesus, gave
to all reformers of all lands, and
through the twenty centuries follow
ing, an example of self-surrender and
self-abnegation worthy the Imitation
of all. His radical followers came to
him with complaints that their more
conservative brethren were following
not John, but Him whom John had
sacrificed nearly everything of tem
poral comfort to introduce. But John
commended them on the ground that
it had been his privilege and duty to
prepare the way: "But he that cometh
rfter me is preferred before me," and
"He must Increase, but I must de
crease."
Owing to the asperities engendered
by the fierce attacks of initial reform
ers in conflict with the ignorance and
selfishness of the resisting masses, the
men'who lay the foundations for great
reforms are usually not the men who
either complete or occupy the com
pleted superstructure. Greeley, Phil
lips, Beecher, Garretson, Sumner and
Gerrit Smith, like Moses, were per
mitted to see from their mountain I
lop of unselfish service the promised |
land of emancipation but were not '
permitted to go over and occupy its
material emoluments. The later ar
rivals at the broken doors of great
reforms generally get in. And this
may account, psychologically as well
as historically, lor the small number
of "earlies" and the multitudes of
"lates."
Mr. Lincoln was from early man
hood at heart an abolitionist, but not
radical in speech or deeds. He would
have "preserved the Union with
slavery if he could, but without slavery
if he must." He and his adminis
tration were the constant targets of
the radical antislavery leaders but for
whose radicalism there might not then
have been an "Uncle Tom's Cabin," a

"John Brown Raid" or Bull Run salu

trary an undlsiuried continuance of
the white man's crime against the

The radicals lfi great reforms are
under God the motive power, almost
as Invisible and inaudible amid the
final huzzahs of vlotory over the ac

advances humanity toward Its Immor

current that drives the piston-rod that
moves the great wheels of our pon

True friends of our great cause—
the greatest now as ever among the
political Issues of the nations and the
centuries —will not at the approaching
national Prohibition convention at
St. Paul make it a battleground for
those favoring and those opposing the
Immediate promotion to candidacy of
some new arrival. Not whendfe he
came, nor when he came, but is he
best equipped; in he heartily loyal to
our platform, old and new, of basal
principles; a platform after which all
other political platforms, except In the
matter of prohibition, have been copy
ing for two decades? And, In addi
tion thereto, can ho command the
largest support at the polls? These
are vital questions. Let us therefore
with open arms welcome the Bryans,
Sulzers. Fosses, Stanleys, Hobsons,
Landriths and Cummlngs if they come
and any and all others who may come
our way pronouncing our Shibboleth
withprohibo-Gileadlte accuracy. Let lis
not forget that some talented, God
begotten Saul of Tarsus who hitherto
has been a faint-hearted supporter or
| even a rabid persecutor of our pho
hibltlon Israel may, Paul like, if giving
: evidence of genuine conversion, ac-
I complish more for our cause In a
' single campaign when the sun of pro

I some others of us who have been a
half-century in the fury of the fray
j accomplished in a decade.
A big man, mounted on a short plat
form of big principles, such as "the
i national prohibition of the licjuor
traffic," "equal suffrage," "separation
I of Church and State," "national peace
f 'with adequate protection) based on
j international arbitration," "nonparti
! San tariff," "equal rights for labor

IN MEXICO 70 YEARS AGO
[couiu.ucu 110111 tentorial I'ugv]
Texan Rangers as daring and lmpetu
, ous us any recorded In history. But
I tiie Texans paid dearly tor their suc
cess for here fell their leader, Cap
tain Walker, around whose name clus
ter as much of daring feats and bor
der romance as encircles the fame of
any frontier man ot American history.
Soon Santa Anna's troops, tired of
ulways being on the vanquished side,
deserted him almost enmasse, attri
buting the unfortunate event* of the
war to his Incapacity, and denouncing
blm as a traitor to his country.
And thus the great Santa Anna,
erstwhile supreme dictator of Mex
ico, became once more a fugitive on
the face of the earth.
When General Winfield Scott enter
ed the city of Mexico and became its
virtual ruler, he had but 8,000 men
under arms. Of this numDer 1,000
were sick in hospitals at Chapultepec
and adjacent points. Deducting small
garrisons here and other places In the
suburbs, Scott had less than 6,000
troops with which to enforce order
and preserve the peace in a populus
and turbulent city.
I have traced briefly for the read
erb of the Telegraph the two great
campaigns of Taylor and Scott, those
two features of the Mexican war with
which every student of history la
fiirly familiar. But, meantime. Im
portant military operations had been
carried on In other portions of Mex
ico which had a most important bear
ing on the future of our nation. I re
gret that the scope of these papers
will not permit a full detail of the
operation by which almost 600,00Q
square miles of territory were con
quered and brought under the domina
tion of the Stars and Stripes by a few
small bands ot hardy Americans not
aggregating 5,000 men In all. The
wonderful achievements of Tremont,
Sloat, Stocktoi), Kearney, Doniphan
and Price is one of the romantic
chapters of the world's history and
well worthy of an extended historical
account.
There was, in 1845, In the topo
graphical corps of the United States
army an officer around whose whole
career clusters a world of romance.
That man was John Charles Fremont,
the first standard-bearer of the Re
publican party in a presidential con
test. In that year he was ordered, by
the United States government, to make
a third exploration of the then almost
unknown Rocky Mountain. He al
ready knew more about these moun
tains and all the adjacent regions
than any man living, and had won the
proud title of "Pathfinder of the
Rockies," crossing what Is now Ne
braska and Utah, he reached Monterey
in California. The Mexican author
■ ities, already keenly suspicious of all
Americans, ordered him to leave the
i country immediately. Fremont was
not ready to go, and he did not.
In June 1846, rumors of a possible
war between Mexico and the United
Slates permeated Into California, and
tlie American settlers, fearing they
would be attacked and slaughtered,
, took time by the forelock and pro
claimed California an Independent re
• public. The flag they fluug to the
i breeze showed a grizzly bear colored in
red paint. With the aid of Fremont
and his little band and a portion of
the United States navy under Com
, modore Sloat and his successor, Com
; nicdore Stockton, they held California
til! General Kearney reached them
with a United States force,
s June SO, 1846, an army of 2,700,
; named by the government "tlve Army
of the West," left Fort Leavfnwortli
under the command of GeneAl
Kearney, who died a soldieflg
» sixteen years later on the field
f Chantilly of the Civil War. The ob®
i jeotive point of this army was Sant J
> Fo in Now Mexico, 1,000 miles away.®
, Under Kearney were the magnificent
volunteer regiments of Colonels Prtce
and Doniphan and Sumner'i dragoons
1 of the regular army. Much of the dis
; tence of the route lay over vast plains
v.'liich for ages had afforded pasturage
' jto countless herds of buffalo or had
5 been the hunting ground of the Xn
- i dlans.
August 18, 1846, the army entered
| Santa Fe almost without opposition,
• | anil Kearney immediately proclaimed
• ! the annexation of all New Mexico to
i j the United States. Subsequently the
' | commands of both Doniphan and
Price fought a number of battles, the
! details of which cannot be given here,
_|all of which terminated in complete
American victories. I will give but
'. ! one romantic specimen of the many
_ things accomplished by these daring
! leaders.
Early in December, 1846, Doniphan
■ left Santa Fe, with 800 men, for a
'. march of hundreds of miles through
Northern Mexico. After fighting
I battles, fording rivers, climbing moun
tains, and passing through a multitude
10l wonderful adventures, on the 28tU
,"•( 01' February, 1847., he encountered
• | General Hendea .strongly entrenched
_ !in a mountain pass overhanging the
• , Sacramento river, and having under
his command an army of 4,100 men
with 16 pieces of artillery. From 3
•• o'clock in the afternoon until evening
lithe Americans made charge after
•• charge with coolness and precision,
j drove the Mexicans from every posi
tion with a loss of but two killed and
I seven wounded, while the flying Mex
icans left 600 on the field, half of
I whom w ere killed. The little Amer
k lean force also captured 400 prison
; ere, all the artillery of the enemy and
large stores of ammunition and pro-
visions.
t It in consequence of daring
| deeds, such as the one just narrated,
that, by the time Winfield Scott's army
unfurled the Stars and Stripes over
the heads of the Montezumas, the
sjime colors also floated in undisputed
triumph over vast provinces of North
. tin Mexico as great in area as the
n original thirteen colonies which in
». 1776 proclaimed their independence of
Great Britain.
