Each has been thoroughly refuted and neither is likely to be heard of again ex- cept as some parrot-like repetiiion of a thing once heard and still remembered by a brain incapable of thinking The early presentation of these charges was in a sure fortunate, as it has giver. ample time for truth ke falsthood and drive it out of the field, or at least out of that part of the field where intel- ligent men are engaged in the contest.

The sole excuse to be urged on behalf of the on- position candidates in this disclosure of uttering false is_that they haye had nothing better to ng with one foot on the Democratic plat- the other on the Labor Union platiorm, ronted by a cendition of public prosperity b aves them no single point on which to dis- pute the efficacy of the national policies of the Repub- lican party, they have had no means of making a fight for tlcinon except by ignoring national issues and making a personal uttack upon their opponents. Their plea scems to be that they have a right in the contest (o use some kind of weapon, and since mud is the only thing available to them they have 2 right 1o throw it The silliness of the attack is apparent. In each gase the charge was o senseless that not even Demo- erats of strong partisan feelings would sustain it T had to refute the,charge made against him Mr. Kahn to do no more than to telegraph a statement of it to one of the Democratic leaders of the House, Mr. Champ Clark; to get from that gentleman a com- e denial of it. Mr. Loud could have obtained a ar refutation from Democratic sources of the charge against him had he deemed it necessary to do s0. In fact, there was absolutely no cormation of the charges to be obtained from any source, while a refutation of them could be {otnd by an appeal to any guarter where the truth might be expected. The American people gre accustomed to political charges of this kind, and the popular estimation of them is expressed by the very that they are familiarly known as “roorbacks.” That slang term was coined because there was no word in the lan- guage to signify just the amount of derisive contempt the people have f6r such charges. They adopted the word to cuit theé thing. It is 2 good word and in the course of time will cease to be slang. So long as we have politicians without capacity to discuss great issues and without regard.for veracity so long shall we have the roorback in ofir political campaign- ing. Fortunately when once it is recognized as such the roorback is of little danger. The more astute of demagogues arc aware of that fact 'and are cunning enough not to spring their false charges until late in the canvass, somctimes waiting until the very day of ¢lection, so thut the sssailed parties will have no op- portunity to refute them until too late to affect the vote. in this case the opponents of fhe Republican can- gidates were not cunning enm;;h to wait. They could wot put restraint upon their foquacity. They blurted put their charges at the start, and now they have pothing to do but to go round repeating them to peopie who know them to be false. The voters are thus given a good means of measuring the ability of the two would-be Congresimen in the Fourth and Fifth districts, and gavged by that measurement it is not likely they will get the votes of any considerable munber of intelligent men of any party. fact a Theoglfinc Gall. ........ <esee.....OCTOBER 23, 1902 | cd in the | THE SAN FRANCISCO CALL, THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23, 19 "THE POLITICAL PROSPECT. XCEPT in times of greaf excitement, when the E judgment of mien is subordinated to their fears or their prejudices, elections in this country are decided by the gcod sense of a majority of the people. There has been a studied effort in this State to unhorse the public judgment and common sense and put fezr and prejudice in the saddle. Democratic speakers and those allied with them have gone iuto the penny dreadful style of oratory .and have pre- tended to see blood on the face of the moon, and disaster dire to the commonwealth, if theiy candidates are not clected to office. Such tactics fometimes win, and are always pursued by a party that has no con- Itimlity of policy, but runs hither and yon aiter every stray bunch of_voters who are either hatching a fad or waiting to be bought. It may be stated as an infallible sign in American | politics that the party which 5 richest in prejudices is the poorest in principles. Judged by that standard “!he California Democracy is a pauper in principles, | for its prejudices are sumptuous and abundant. A 1ate utterance of one of its speakers is to the effect that Iix' it be not put in power ‘“‘there will be, within five [years, the bloodiest revolution the wagjd ever saw.” | The man who delivered this gory prophecy rolled his jeyes in irenzy ang made the veins,of his forehcad and flhe cords of his neck swell and turn purple, while | craftily watching the effect on his hearers. Now, if this excited person had had some principles to talk | Dout, or the ability’ to discuss them, he would not | have hoarsened his ovcrworked throat by talking such But he thought it would solemnly im- ]prccs his audience and make him seem in their eyes {a large man with a great head. Analyzed, it was ! simply a declaration that if a majority of the people ‘do not put his side in power the minority will cry havoc and let slip the dogs of war. provoke mirth. Their only effect upon the voter is | to- make him vote the other ticket. They go on to the dump of oratorical garbage along with that other utterance of demagogy, that labor in this country is slavery and the laborer is worse off than in the mon- archies of Europe. Since 1806, when the Democratic party abandoned s principles and went forth with a handiul of fresh salt to catch birds by sprinkling it on their tails, it has oversupplied the market with mock heroics, evil prophecy, abuse of the country and misrepresenta- tion of its condition. It has prayed for panic, in- voked disaster, hopsgd for flood, #rost and famine, and now begins to talk bloodshed and rvolution. It is a pity that any party once great should let its brains be blown out through a pinhole, like the con- | tents of an egg, But that has happened, and the poor i thing is running around with nothing in its skull and all thinking people are getting out of its way. The result of this campaign in California is plain to any thinking man who will make a careful study of the Democratic speeches that are made all over the State. Whef nominees of the same party are for | protection in one place and for free trade in another; | when they oppose Cuban free trade in a beet sugar county and favor general free trade in another place, and finally, when they appeal to war and froth about revolution unless they have their way, no considera- tion for even the feeble-minded and unfortunate can induce wise men to intrust them with the govern- ment of the State. Democrats who go back beyond 1806 and remember when their party had brains at its head and principles ir "its platiorm find themselves compelled; as a patriotic duty, to vote against the automaton that calls itself the Democratic party but is as void of principles as a Hubbard squash is of cocoanut milk. ; Democratic leaders continue to say they do not wish to carry the House this year, but if by any chance such a thing should happen they will get gay in a minute and begin to shout “victory” as lustily as if they had'saved the country. THE CUP CHALLENGE. H IPTON’S third challenge for the America’s cup | L has been received with comparatively little in- terest hy the public. Perhaps the coal strike and the political campaign have had something to do with the apparent indifference, but it is probable the challenge was so much of a foregone conclusion that its effect has long ago been discounted. When the world knows that a certain event is surely' coming such discussion as it cxcites generally takes place at once, so that when the event occurs there is einle more to be said. In the present instance there seem but two points of interest outside of speculation as to which yacht will win. The first is the claim made that the cup by the America, and vot confined, as now, to a com- petition between one challenging yacht and a yacht chosen as a defender by the New York Yacht Club. This point was raised by the Boston Yacht Club, whose members wished a chance to compete in the 2st race. Public sealiment was with the Bostonians 2t that time, and there is hardly likely to have been any change since. It is well known that the cup was | put up originally as 2 trophy in an open regatta, and there are good reasons why it should be again offered in the same way. Certainly New York has no right to arbitrarily shut out all other American yacht clubs while claiming to hold the cup as a symbol of the championship of the world. The second point in controversy is that new rules should be adopted concerning the conditions under { which the competition is to be held. It is asserted | that under the present rules the contest is not carried on by genuine yachts but by racing machines that are valueless for any other purpose than racing. As | a result of these absurd reg\xlatio.ns the contests for Elhe cup have done nothing whatever of late years | to improve yacht construction. ‘ i | { Philadelphia Public Ledger says: “Their whole ten- dency has been to make yachting a speculative busi- craft constructed especially for these races are not yachts, or pleasure beats, in any legitimate sense. The recent challengers have not been trusted by their owners to cross the ocean unassisted, and the de- fenders have not ventured to sea. A rich man in Boston spent a quartc; of a million of dollars upon one of these racers, and it proved so unseaworthy that when it failed as a racer there was nothing -to do with it but to brezk it up. It was unfit for any service as a re boat. And yet the America, viceable yacht, affording safe and comfortable accom- | modations on a cruise and able to give a good account of herself in a regatta.” f Those two points coristitute at present about the only features of interest in the new challenge. Doubtless when the time for the race draws near in- Such threats | should be oper to all competitors, as it was when won ! In commenting upon the existing racing ryles the t ‘ness, confined to millionaires or syndicates. The costly ¥ which won the cup a half a century ago, is still a ser- ' !lemational ri\'alry’ will again arouse public interest in the contest itself, but even then it is not likely there will be anything like the ardor felt in former races. Lipton has proven himseli so plucky a contestant and so good a loser that no one would grudge him a will be a general desire to see future races conducted under moresliberal terms. The contest should be an open regatta, so that any American yacht club could have an equal chance with that of New York, and the rules should be so amended-as to open the match for genuine yachts rather than for mere racing ma- chines. e —————— It is noted in Iowa that Boies, who is now running for Congress on a platiorm pledging him to be a trust buster by mieans of tariff reduction, has been a stanch protectionist for thirty years, notwithstanding he posed as a Democrat and was candidate for the Democratic nominaticn for President. It appears that Boies wishes an office very badly and is willing to stand for anything that will -help him to get one. ! F)icau party has nominated the Hon. U. S. Webb of Plumas. This is one of the nominations that brings new blood into the field of State politics and opens a career for a man who can be counted on to render good service to the commonwealth and make | a record for himself of which his friends may be justly proud. g Mr. Webb was not nominated as an experiment. He has been tried in the service of his county and found to be energetic, faithful and efficient. He has FOR ATTORNEY GENERAL. OR the office of Attorney General the Repub- Attorney and has established his reputation as a safe, sound and reliable lawyer. It was upon the strength of his record there that his'name was suggested for the higher honor of Attorney General, and the nomi- nation was given him because he had proven his fit- ness for the position. The office of Attorney General is one of the most important in the State administration. The people can afford to take no chances in the selection ofia man for the position. To rightly perform its duties | there is needed rfot only an honest, patriotic man, but a lawyer of wide learning who ha$” made a special study of those portions of the law which affect the | State. During his career as District Attorney Mr. Webb has been called upon to study and to practice along lines that have trained him for the higher of- fice to which he has now been nominated by the Re- publican convention. He will enter the office well equipped in every respect and can be counted on to repeat there the successes which have distinguished his service as District Attorney. In addition to his personal claims upon the voters Mr. Webb has the further claim that he stands as a representative of Republicanism. His election will assure the State against the tenure of the Attorney General’s office by a man who represents ho definite political principles, no well ordered and responsible political -party, and who consequently will be neces- sarily swayed more or less by the various factions that make up the opposition and - that advocate about every form of vagary known to politics. The vote for Mr. Webb should include the ballot of every Republican and every independent voter. He is the right man for the place and should be elected over- whel{ninghh i — From- Ohio comes the curious story that the voters are so busy with their private affairs they are taking little interest in politics, and now the country would like to know what has happened to Ohio that she should have changed her nature in that fashion. s e T GIRL BABIES "IN RUSSIA. NE of the oddest of the minor dcvélopments O of the time is the outbreak in Russia of what appears to be a spasm of indignation against | girl babies. The spasm is manifest in more places than one and in more ways than one. Again and again from widely separated parts of the empire re- ports have come of outbursts of this indignation, and it is therefore fair to conclude that a considerable por- tion of the Russian people are undergoing a revival of something like the primeval barbarism which of old prompted men to kill girl babies by way of im- proving society. Two recent reports will serve to show the extent states that since the Czarina has given bjrth to none but girl babies she has become so much disliked by the people that she is in danger of being hooted when she appears in public. Even the courtiers of thé pal- zce look upon her with indignant eyes, and the story is that her life is rendered so unhappy she may leave the empire and permit the Czar to obtain from the Greek church authority to get another wife. It might. be/supposed that in the case of the Czar- ina the anger of the court and the populace is due to the desire for a2 male heir to the throne and that it would not be felt toward a mother of girl babies in private station. That view is rendered untenable by the second story, which narrates that in one of the provinces of the empire several men have been pub- licly flogged because they were ‘the fathers of girl babies. The report says the census of the province showed an excess of women over men, whereupon the military authorities have taken to flogging the head of every family in which the number of girl babies exceeds that of boys. i Reports from Russia are always exaggerated, and we are not to assume that the flogging of the fathers of girls has been carried on to any great extent, but still there must have been something done to stir up this tale of military punishment for the birth of a girl, while the frequeéncy of the reports of the popu- .lar rage against the Czarina goes far to confirm that story. Thus we have another evidence of the innate barbarism that underlied the outer culture of the Muscovite civilization. . : Napoleon’s saying, “Scratch a Russian and you will nd a Tartar” still holds true. It is not easy to un- derstand the processes of reasoning or even the lack of reasoning by which such sentiments find a place in the minds'of a people making even a pretense to be civilized, but Russia is clearly a good place just now for missionary work on behalf of girls. It may be too much to ask that they shall have a right to vote, but surely they have a right to be born. Even Russians might concede that muoh‘ seeing that the two greatest sovereigns that ever sat upon the Rus- sian throne were women, and one of them, the first Catherine, was so good to her people as well as so great in war and statecraft that s/he is known to his- tory and to traditioni'as’“the mother of Russia.” California should not backslide an inch in her political progress. She has now a solid Republican 1 delegation at Wathington and should keep it so. LR 4 o victory if it came to him. On the other hand there ' served the people of Plumas in the office of District ! to which the barbaric feeling has been aroused. .One !
