THE SOLID SOUTH.
Solid in its prejudice, its pride, its
ignoraoc^, its inhumanity, the South
remains a constant menace to the pro
gress and stability of the Republic. It
presents the strange anomaly of the
oligarchy living in the midst of a dem
ocracy. Intelligent, active, argumenta
tive opposition is not a calamity, it is a
check upon extravagance, upon im
pulsiveness, upon ill-advised enthusi
asm. Hut, the dull, dead, sullen oppo
sition of the South is a distinct menace.
The refusal to consider any publ
question upon its merits, the willing
ness to blindly follow any "ism" that
promises to maintain the Southern
oligarchy, places the South as a distinct
and separate part of the Nation, a sec
tion, having almost nothing in common
with the life and aspirations and patri
otism of the remainder of the great
Republic.
The Republican party will utterly
fail in its duty if it fails to read in the
late election returns a warrant for such
procedure as shall make of this country
a vast democracy instead of having the
limits of free government confined by
Mason's and Dixon's line,
The repunliccruld not endure part
free and part slave neither can it endure
part democracy and part oligarchy. In
our opinion the effort to restrict re
presentation in those states where the
ballot is denied, while perhaps a step
in the right direction, fails to strike at
the root of the difficulty and offers in
centive for wide spread election fraud?.
It does not, guarantee the ballot to ail
citizens, it simply means that more ,f
the ruliug class in the South would j/o
to the polls or that thenaiv^ and pure
ly southern system of ballot box stuff
ing would again come in vogue.
Hvils in our electoral system do not
exist in the South alone. The first,
great, principle to be acknowledged
and put in force is, that National elec
tions belong to trie Nation and not to
the state or municipality.
This principle being recognized it
follows, first that there should be es
tablished a basis of Federal -suffrage
alike in all states, second that. Federal
elections should be in charge of feder
al otlicials and third that Federal elec
tions should be separate and distinct,
from every other election.
There is no good reason why wouien
should be allowed to vote for President
in Colorado and net in Iowa, there is
no good rearon why a foreigner should
become a voter on National elections
much sooner in one state than another
there is rio good reason why the prop
erty, educational or other requirements
should not be the uue throughout the
United States.
If the people in Colorado wish to ex
leud the suffrage to women as regards
the affairs of their own state, all well
and good, it concerns no one but them
selves, but to allow the state to grant :i
National suffrage concerns all oi us
and is fair neither to the men nor to
the women of other states.
Tt is of inlinitesraal importance, to
the people of Iowa as to the adminis
tration of the state or local affairs of
Georgia, but the election of ajCongress
nian or the casting of a vote in the
electoral college is a matter that effects
us all.
There can be no sound argument
against a universal suffrage law.
Granting the universal importance of
the Federal election there can be no
valid objection to their control by Na
tional officials, any more than there is
valid objection to the administration of
Federal courts by^Federal officers.
In order that questions of the Nation
be decided on their merits and divorced
as far as possible from matters purely
state or local importance it would be
best were the Federal elections held
on a separate day and that on that day
the people should be a9ked to [decide
oniy national issues.
It is absurd to ask the voter, no
matter what his intelligence, to decide
every question from the currency to
the selection of a township assessor, on
the same day and on the same ballot,
The partisan urges that a strong
National ticket helps to pull a weak
state or local ticket through: the pa
triot answers that a weak state or local
ticket oughtnot to be "pulled through"
neither should a strong national ticket
tie weakened because of a poor nomin
ation for assessor or coroner.
The argument of the partisan is al
ready weakened by the action of such
states as Misaour, iMassachusetts, Min
nesota and Colorado,fwhere republican
electors and democratic governors
were elected. These were, however,
exceptional cases and but 'prove the
rule that ','.the mixing of National, state
and local issues is not conducive to
delibarate judgement on the part of
the voters.
Lei the republican Congrwu and the
republican President have the oourage
of their convictions. Let them pass a
Federal election law, providing for
universal suffrage requirements, for
Federal control and for separate elec
tions, then and not until then will this
country become a democracy in fact as
well tn la nthm.

CABINET MAKERS AT WORK,
Now that the election prophet is out
of a job and the situation in the Far
East allows the strategic board to rest,
the cabioet makers are getting busy.
President Ro jsevelt has already laid
to rest the rumor of John Hay's retire
ment and be will doubtless allay other
rumors all in good time. We may,
however, |e*[ ect to see every other
member of the present cabinet retired
)y the newspaper experts and enough
new men appointed to fill the cabinet
for a generation. As for Secretary
Shaw, we believe the rumors of his
retirement to be wholly without foun
dation. Election day found him in
Iowa at the close of a strenuous, bril
liant and wonderfully effective cam
paign tour. Of all the members of the
cabinet he stood the brunt of the fray
and his speaking tour was a blaze of
glory from Maine to California and
bacK to Crawford. With Uncle Joe
Cannon he was the most effective and
most sought after campaigner on the
republican side.
Election day found him in Iowa.
Since that time he '.as not seen the
president and there has been no oppor
tunity for any exchange of views on
the cabinet situation. We do not know
that Mr. Shaw desires to remain in the
cabinet, but this we do know that his
relations *ith the president are of the
the most cordial and friendly nature,
that there is no misunderstanding or
lack of esteem and friendship and sym
pathy between them, and that if Sec
retary shaw retires f/om the position
he has tilled with such signal ability,
it will be entirely of his own volition.
Secretary Shaw has been a tower of
strength to the Roosevelt administra
tion. Next to Secretary Hay he has
gained more favorable comment than
any other eabinet minister for states
manship and good, sound judgment.
No one can hope to stop the busy
bodies, the stirrers-up of trouble, tn
the astute body of unofficial cabinet
tnaket, but the friends of Mr. Shaw
need not 'o.* alarmed, he has made foi
himself a name and fame that is wn
ten very high iu the political history
of this country. President Roosevelt
is a great, man, a man without pelty
jealousies: he is anxious to make his
administration the most brilliant an't
successful in American l,istor\:to do
this he needs the aid of ju-t such men
as Leslie M. Shaw, and there is no
doubt but that he will retain him in
his cabinet unless Mr. Shaw should sec
ti to decline the proposition.
Do not worry about Shaw—just keep
your eye on him—that's all.
PROSPERITY.
It will be the fault of 110 one but the
peop'eof Crawford county if they are
not prosperous this year. The bounti
ful crops and fair prices assure us that
more than a million dollars will be
poured into this county during the next
twelvemonth in exchange for our natur
al products The balance of trade in
our favor will reach into the. hundreds
of thousands and Crawford should be
prosperous.
The degree of the prosperity depends
upon how wisely this balance is expend
ed. So long as our b-st financiers shall
refuse to invest in local enterpriser and
shall be ready to invest in every ild
eat oil or mining stock that seeks a
market, the surplus will be easily ex
pended without auy benefit to this
community either directly or indirect
ly-
We do not wish to.scold too hard, but
it seems absurd that Denison capital
can be enlisted by the thousands to in
vest in unknown and unknowable pro
jects, from the coast to the gulf,
while it is impossible to raise enough to
establish a canning factory or to build
a hotel or an opera house in Denison.
Unfortunately for ourselves we do
not belong to the capitalist class. If
we did we would doubtless make like
mistake
J.
-WJfJjj
We trust that the [criticism
will not be taken as unkindly, when we
suggest that it is time our capitalists
show more faith in Denison and less of
childlike confidence in the wandering
vendor of mining stock.
We know this is a tender subject with
many and we do not wish to lacerate
their feelings unnecessarily, but we are
ready to face the risk of their displeas
ure if we can^but rouse in the monied
men of Denison a stronger sense of loy
alty to home investments. Thers are
so many projects that would be infinite
ly safer than mining stocks and of vast
ly greater importance and helpfulness
to the community that such waste of
capital as we have witnessed appears
almost criminal

HAY WILL REMAIN SECRETARY
President Roosevelt |made the an
nouncement today that Mr. John Hay
would continue as aeeivtary of state
during the four years beginning March
4 nest.
"You may state positively," were his
words, "that Mr. Hay "'ill continue as
secretary of stale tip to the 4th of
March, 1009."
The president was asked regarding
other possible cabinet 'Changes,*but in
dicated that there was nothing to be-said
at present. 11 is announcement regard
ing Secretary Hay was made to a num
ber newspaper reporters in his office
late in the afternoon. Mr. Hay's suc
cession to the state department port
folio fixes the most important place in
the new cabinet an^ is the first and only
step so far taken in that directiou.
Since this annonuceoient it has been
authoritatively stated that both Sec.
Wilson and Sec. Shaw will invited
