THE CONSTITUTIONAL

In a few days, next Wednewlay, tho

ihe primary, and the negro vote. It
I* very doubtful that he will get all,

To the rest of the state ticket
there is no opposition. The office of

for this office six candidates have
announced, Including the present In
eumhent. As the law provides that

this will result; and that eliminates

out, are never purified from within.
In the very nature of the case. If a
change from the policies they have
adopted and out of the ruts they have
worn ha* become necessary, it can be
secured only through another party.
And the country now demands a
change; domanda It because condi
tions have grown such that a change
must come, if not one way, then In
some other way.
The democratic parly had been In
;power for sixty years, and the coun
try demanded a change In the chattel
slavery condition then prevailing,
which had become a necessity, just as
now a change from oppressive trust
conditions is demanded. The demo
cratic paliy then could no more yield
to public demand than the republican
party can now, because the machine
had been set to run that way. And
because what the people demanded
and what had become necessary was
not obtained at the polls the great
civil war followed, with all Its fear
ful cost of blood and treasure and its
still more fearful cost of class legists
tlon which waß a consequence of It.
Exactly the same conditions prevail
now. A change In the policy of our
government is demanded by the peo
ple, because It has become a neces
sity. The predatory corporations
must he controlled. The republican
party cannot do It. The democratic
party must be placed in control if the
change required It to be Instituted by
peaceful means
And now Is the time. If, with all
the things that are In Its favor now
the democratic party fall to dislodge
from fiower the party In power en
trenched In the offices, then It can
never hope to do so. This makes the
present contest a political arranged
don, the great decisive battle. Dem
ocratic defeat IbU year would mean
revolution.
A third party has been rising. It
has been slowly growing for many
years. It. will probably poll a million
voles thi* year If the democratic
party fall now, and does not win the
chance of correcting the trust evils by
constitutional means, then look for
the socialists to become the scourge
to effect it hy unconstitutional means.

THE AUGUSTA HERALD
The Sin Of Republicaism Has Found It Out.
(Louisville Courier Journal.)
The paramount, issue of this presidential campaign is the danger of
entrusting one party too long with power.
We are supposed to live under a government of public opinion. Mod
ern politics, however, ha* created machinery especially designed for con
trolling this public opinion. The machinery, so fabricated, places all the
advantages in the hands of the leaders of the party in power. The "ins."
begin on, are as an army fortified. The "outs” are but a body of raw
militia, which, bravs. and no matter how capably led, have yet to cross
many lines of entrenchment, to *torm the cannon-mouthed redoubt and
to carry the murderous barricade. It is yet a question whether vic
tory against such odds 1* possible. The present campaign is to de
termine that. It is to decide whether the people, unaided, can success
fully go against a party occupying a fortress —whether the American
voter Is, or is not, an overmatch for the money devil, commanding
the party in power—whether, In a word, it Is possible, short of some cat
aclysm, to reach a change of parties at Washington.
The old, historic democratic party had sixty years of power, to
make its exit the signal for s sectional war. Even then the opposi
tion only crept in through a breach. The republicans have been in now
nearly fifty years. If we cannot peacefully remove them what may wo
not look for when their time of exit comes? Maybe a civil war. Bat,
will It not be wary of the people to take time by the forelock—of pub
lic opinion to rear back on its hind legs—of the average citizen to go
to the polls to exercise his Intelligence and his volition, and to do his
duty?
• • • •
Of Judge Taft’s personal Integrity w* make as little doubt as of Mr.
Roosevelt's personal integrity. But, in politics, a line is too often
drawn between personal Integrity and party service, to the confusion of
the former, and precisely as Judge Taft appealed to the Ohio republi
can* to vote against Foraker and Cox, do we appeal to the republicans
of the United States to vote against Aldrich and Cannon, the real pow
ers at Washington, with Sunny Jim Sherman on the Taft-Rooseveit
ticket, because there is no hope of reform In case their one-party rule
Is continued.
If Roosevelt, with his nigh eight years of domination and his stren
uous big-stick, could not prevail against these, how can Taft, the soft
and amiable opportunist, expect to do so? Why four years more unde, -
Taft when eight years under Roosevelt have proved so insufficient?
Not a sinner repentant for all the president's incessant preaching.
Not a malefactor in jail for all his noisy prosecutions. same old
crowd at the fore. The same old abuses—all of republican origination—
In the saddle.
Yet all this fallß in with universal human experience. When in
the history of affairs, did ever a party reform itself in power? Never.
The only way for the people to right the wrongs done by their public
men is to turn the rascals out. of office, and then to punish the rascals
convicted of crime. This democracy proposes to do, and we ask all
honest republicans to Join us in doing it.
The Foraker business Is but an object lesson. The repudiation of
a single senator will nowise matte good. It is the republican party
which Is In the dark. It. is the republican party which these revela
tions expose. It is the republican party, tried in the balance and
found wanting, which Judge Taft and Mr. Roosevelt—the people’s best
witnesses to Its bad character—are trying to save. But the sacrifice
of Foraker will not suffice. To prove themselves honest, they must also
throw Aldrich and Cannon and Sunny Jim Sherman overboard.
Never has the republican party faced such conditions as meet it
whichever way it turns. All thoughtful onlookers concede that New
York Is irrevocably lost to It. Tha nomination of Lilley makes Connec
ticut a doubtful state. Rhode Island and New Jersey hang in the bal
ance.
There are both hell and chaos In Ohio. Indiana, thanks to Hanly,
is gone past redemption. The prairie fires of an awakened public con
science sweep over Illinois, leaping the Mississippi river into lowa,
crossing the Missouri river into Kansas and Nebraska, impeded only
by the tenantless walls of the Rocky mountains, to Issue thence again
and to swoop down to the golden shores of the Pacific.
Weil may the republican leaders, intolerant and arrogant, used by
money and machinery to carry all before them, quake with fear and
whiten with dismay. In their rage they bite one another like fright
ened beasts of the forest Well may they swap horses in the middle
of the stream, exchanging Proxy Frank Hitchcock for Foxy Murray
Crane. Well may they make alliance with the Unspeakable Hearst,
Taft himself crying "help me, Randolph, or I sink!” Well may they
call to their aid the crushed ones of the steam-roller, promising ail
the kingdoms of the earth for their worship and support.
It is amazing. It Is pitiful. If is humiliating. Their sinß indeed
have found them out at Inst. Scandals to right of them: scandals to
left of them; defeat In front of Hem. —only the Taft-Sinton millions
between Cannon clinging to Sunny Jim”—Aldrich falling upon the neck
of son-in-law Rockefeller—the thieving tariff exuding fat no longer, but
making quagmires for the robber trusts— the people disgusted on the
one hand, or indignant on the other—the Grand Old Party of graft and
fraud Is in truth a sight to see! Yet a little longer, and then the bone
yard, leaving only a stench behind, and this inscription—
Whilst it lived it lived in clover;
When it died It died all over."
