POPULAR GOVERNMENT.
As Mr. Lincoln aptly put it, “a gov
ernment of the people, by the people
and for the people.” That, accord
ing to American thought, is the ideal
government. It is a form of govern
ment in which every citizen has equal
participation and equal interest.
There was a time, and not a very re
mote period either, when such an idea
of government was regarded as absurd
and impossible.
The Anglo-Saxon race, through
great difficulties, was many centuries
preparing for it. And it finally came,
and we do not believe that any spot
upon the earth was so well adapted
to the experiment as the North Amer
ican continent.
Here Divine Providence unfolded
this system of government, and for
nearly a century and a half its devel
opment has proceeded, until it may be
safely s:id. r.o people in the world are
sc well governed and so free. They
enjoy liberty without license, and are
subject to law, without undue re
straint.
This is the country in which we, as
American citizens, live, and of which
we arc justly proud. And a country, i
with itr- representative form of gov-'
•eminent which we are bound, as good :
citizens, to hand down, unimpaired. l
to the generations which follow us. 1
‘‘Eternal vigilance is the price of
liberty" was the warning of that pa
triot and statesman, Andrew Jackson,
and truer words were never spoken.
If the American people wish to pre
serve their inheritance, they must
watch it. We deplore corruption in
our politics, and it ought to be eradi
cated. but if this blessed country of
ours ever goes to pieces, it will not
be so much because of political cor
ruption as the indifference of those
who never concern themselves about
the politics of the country.
It is the duty of every American |
citizen to take his place with his fel
lows in trying to make the govern
ment just what it ought to be, and ,
thus discharge the plain function of
good citizenship.
TASSAR’S PRESIDENT WARNS.
Says Government's Tendencies Men
ace The Republic.
Poughkeepsie, N. Y., June 7.—ln
his baccalaureate sermon to Vassar |
seniors today Rev. James Monroe !
Taylor, president of Vassar College, |
declared that the radical tendencies i
the Government at this time are men
acing the republic.
"A startling change has come over
American political thought,” said Dr.
Taylor, “in 10 years—since we became |
a ‘world power.’ We were really
something of a nation with some in
fluence before that little Spanish War.
I am not now referring to the vast
increase—deplorable, indeed—of war
talk and war feeling, but to the more
dangerous tendency to absorb legisla
tive and even judicial powers into the
executive department of the Govern
ment. That is the worst single symp
tom in our political horizon—far more
dangerous even than the threat of in
creased class feeling in our nation—
for it strikes at the whole theory of
democratic government.
"The general acceptance of a doc
trine of paternalism is foolish, an un
warranted faith in a government—in
its power to right the wrongs that
only the people can right—and it is
the cessation of government by the
people and for the people; and un
less we turn about, as we surely shall,
it is a death knell of democracy—a
mortal stroke against the independ
ence and the manhood of the citizen.”
Do Sot All Get Married.
“A mistaken but widely prevalent
idea is that most women who resign
the profession of teaching do so to get
married,” said Prof. M. T. Leland, of
Chicago.
‘‘The facts are that many bright wo
men are quitting the teaching business
nowadays to take up lines of work out
of which they can make better sal
aries. The average woman teacher has
to toil at the job about 17 years before
she is in receipt of a stipend much
above S2O a week. Many clever wo
men can make better money than this
as expert stenographers, accountants,
nurses, typewriters, librarians and the
like after a couple of years’ experience.
“So it is that they fall out of the
pedagogue profession by the hundreds,
leaving in the schools a big per cent,
of the least clever and competent, and
that is perhaps why we see in the
daily press so much adverse criticism
of our public schools. I for one do
not blame the smart woman for retir
ing from a vocation where for years
her Increase of pay Is less than S4O per
annum.”
j BOUGH EIDERS AT CHICAGO.
Old Political Leaders Staggered by
Roosevelt’s Method#.
iS
3.
l > Old hands at national conventions
£ profess themselves staggered at the
s', rough directness with which the Roose
'e velt control of the party machinery is
}. being exerted. What becomes of the
s- 1 fine art of politics? Where are all
• those nice compromises, that mag
t! nanimity of the victor, that desire for
sr conciliation and harmony which we
! have always understood to be the full
Sd flower of political management? Mur
>e phy and Conners could scarcely be
f’ | more frankly brutal than the Taft
as i managers have thus far shown them
selves at Chicago. They mean to let
re nothing get away. To ride rough-shod
18 1 over Senators and Representatives and
>e| protesting committeemen and dele
| gates, appears to be their conception
of the height of political wisdom. • And
- when the result of their strong-arm
tactics was reported to the White
’ House, he that sitteth in that heaven
held his opponents in derision. “Just
see them squirm!”
A decent regard for appearances
| would have dictated some other
i course than having three of Taft’s hir
’ i ed men turn up with proxies for seats
e in the National Committee. It would
1 have been perfectly easy to reach the
- ; desired end without resort to such uu
.l blushing methods. Surely, there must
have been some Senator other than
" Lodge willing to take a proxy in Taft’s
1 ! behalf. Among all the well-known
Republicans favoring the Secretary’s
| candidacy, it must have been possible
- to find two or three who would have ;
used the artfully provided proxies, and
1 thus spared the committee and the
1 party the affront of having three men
i who were known only as paid out of
’ the Taft campaign fund step forward
i to pass judicially upon credentials,
which they themselves had secured.
3 1 That would at least have been to
, | keep a very thin velvet glove over the
iron hand. But it is too hot to wear
gloves in Chicago!
I The whole incident, with its violent
break with party traditions, and the ;
’ j disagreeable effect it has produced
I upon the older Republicans, is but one
j evidence more of the great change
1 j which has come over political man
• tiers and political methods since Mr.
Roosevelt came to look upon the Re
publican party as his personal prop
.; erty. To him, the possession of power
without using it to the utmost, is sheer
‘ folly. The nomination of Secretary
Taft is his doing. He ordered it. He
j set the whole Federal machinery to
| work for the purpose of bringing it
j about. All the other Taft managers
i were putty in his hands. As for the
! party, what does it exist for but to
take instructions from him? Disci
i pliue must be maintained; and if any
left-over Republicans of an epoch be
fore the age o? brass think that the j:
delicacies and the decencies ought to i
be observed in running a national con- (
i vention, it is time that they learned i
their mistake. This is the day of ’
Thorough. 1
i It is clear that the President re-;
i gards the Chicago Convention not only
as a body with no other reason for j
j being except to do his will, but also j
as the beginning of the vast plebiscite
which is to justify and glory himself, i
Like Louis Napoleon, he thinks of the '
appeal to the people as merely the -
means of confirming his wisdom and
heightening his power. Also like Na- .
poleon 111., he believes that no gov
ernmental authority can be respect
able. or feared, unless it is both single
and strong—“un et fort.” Hence the
entire reasonableness, even the neces
sity, from his point of view, of round
ing up and branding delegates as if
they were cattle.
Protests at Chicago against the | 1
cowboy plan are taking the form of J
a warning about the result at the j -
polls. Senator Crane has gone to the £
Taft rough-riders with a reminder s
that an election comes after the nomi- ;
nation, and is even more important, j,
But this only provokes fresh laughter c
in the White House, and renewed in- | ‘
1 structions to yield nothing. When the j J
! election comes, the President will at- j
I tend to that. In his most skilled and
j "practical” way, he will see to raising .
(the necessary funds; and if speeches
i and telegrams and battlecries are j
I needful, Mr. Roosevelt will stand | ]
ready to provide them. The obvi- | ,
ous fact is that the President believes I
all that he is told about his absolute | '
hold upon the people of this country. \
He can do what he likes, give any or- ■
ders that suit him. It is just as easy, |
in his opinion, to cram his candidate |;
down the throats of the electorate, as ‘
it is to force him upon the Convention, i ,
So the protesters at Chicago may rest
I well assured that no alarm which they j,
raise about the danger of dissensions ; ‘
\ in the party and possible defeat in the I
election, -will have the slightest effect (
upon the man who rules them with;
a rod of iron. He remains serenely j
confident that the people will give
back to him every power which he
chooses to exercise. The Chicago j
Convention may protest and make :
faces, but it will have to resign itself};
to being “personally conducted.” —N.
