No Paper To-morrow.

 

To-morrow being a legal holiday,
when business is to be largely sus-
pended, the evening adition of the "GA-
zurrn will not be issued, unless news of
special importance should require it.

Lincoln Day.

To morrow, October 15th, is LINCOLN
Day. If ever a day should be reverent-
ly and gratefully observed by the
American people, it is Lincoln Day.
As a benefactor of his race, emanci-
pator of seven million of slaves, saver
of the grandest Naiion of freemen the
world has ever seen, Abraham Lincoln
stands peerless among the benefactors
of mankind. b

The schools, the banks, many stores,

offices and places of business will be
closed. The post office will not be
open after eleven o'clock, and no paper
will be issued from this oflice.
' Let to-morrow be appropriately ob-
served by all, and let us hope that some
inture Connecticut legislature will
enact a date for its celebration, corres-
ponding with that of Lincoln’s birth.

Wage Earners Against Bryan.

When Mr. Bryan learns, as he prob-
ably will after election, that some 70
per cent. of the population of the
United States is made up of wage earn-
era and their dept-nu. it's, he will under-
stand why it was that a tidal 'wave
iknocked him silly. These wage earn-
ers work for a stated salary, one-half
of which, it is their belief, they won

by combination and hard fighting) All

their domestic economy is based upon
the comparative fixity of the value of
their wages. With the substitution of
the silver dollar for the gold one, in
which they are now paid, their wages
will have been cut down just one-half,
while the price of everything else will
have doubled. Within five or six years,
perhaps, their wages would begin to rise
to a more reasonable proportion to the
cost of living, but in the meantime
every advance of wages, every quarter
of a dollar a day added to them, would
have to be fought for, with strikes and
tumults and starving children and
empty larders and stoves, forfeiture of
the purchase money put out on instal-
ments, and all the misery and woe of
abject poverty. Not having any over-
whelming desire for this experience, 70
per cent. of the population will vote
against Mr. Bryan, and give him a
chance in obscurity to study up the
causes of political earthquakes.

 

 

A Moralist and a Patriot.

When, some months ago Cardinal
Gibbons, of Baltimore, was asked for
an expression of opinion on the subject
of the Chicago platform, he, “smilling,
put the question by” with the assur-
ancefithat the chief issue was one of fi-
nancial experts and not for the Church
to consider.

Quite otherwise Archbishop Ireland,
of St. Paul, a prelate famous for his
liberalismfithe great scope of his under-
standing and his ardent Americanism.
He sees in this extraordinary political
contest issues as broad as the Deca-
loguv; issues of morality and religion
that force him to sound a warning note
to honest men Of all denominations.

It is not merely a question as to what
form of currency the United States shall
employ, not one of expediency or ad-
vantage; it is one of principle. Shall
the American people repudiate half
their obligations and become a nation
of cheats? But even that question he
subordinates to another. He sees in
the declaration of the Chicago platform
the threat of secession,“the secession of
1861, which our soldiers believe they
had consigned to eternal death at Ap-
pomattox, but which demands again re-_
cagnation by the American people.”

Justification of this characterization
instantly presents itself in the language

of the platform, which \declares forL

State rights against-the interference of '
the President with the forcible viola-
tion of Federal laws. In this declara-
tion the eloquent Archbishop sees the
“annulment of the Union,” a “notice
served upon the flag of America that
outside the District of Columbia it is
without power or self-assertion or self-
defense.” The prelate is not less out-
=poken on the platform. as subversive of
social order and a menace to liberty in
its attack on the Supreme Court, which
he rightly declares to be the palladium

, of American liberties.”

How in the face of this authoritative
declaration by an American ecclesiastic
of the highest standing, a co-religionist
of Archbish0p Ireland can vote for
Bryan and anarchy passes comprehen-
sion.

 

Political Notes.

'A canvass by the Herald shows that‘
fusion'between the democrats and pop-
ulists will be of little effect in the choice
of Bryan electors.

Leaders of the political parties each
assert they are ‘sure of carrying the
Middle West. '

Thomas E. Watson will stay on the
populist ticket as candidate for Vice
President, the executive committee of
the National Committee having so de;
cided.

' Mr. Bryan found the free silver sen-
timent “dominant in Duluth, Minn,
and hopes to be equally fortunate in
his trip through Michigan.

The Chicago Becord’s poll of Chicago
and the state of. Illinois shows a con-
tinued increase for McKinley in the
city and a good majority in the partial
returns from seventy-seven counties in
the State. I

For the first time since his nomina.
tion, Major McKinley publicly prophe-
sied his success in the coming election,
yesterday.
