era tic party as long as thoy think
that It is just r.s bad or bellovo that
ii would bo as bad If it had tho same
opportunity. If since 1S9G tho demo
cratic party had spent as much time
trying to convert republicans as it
hns spent trying to make peace with
corporation democrats its position be
fore tho country would bo immensely
stronger.
"It ought to commence now to build,
not for one campaign, or for success
in one section of tho country, but for
ix permanent and universal success.
No great reform can bo accomplished
without an appeal to tho public con
science. Republican policies must
sooner or later break down, because
they all contemplate the benefit of a
few at the expense of the many, and
now is the time to attack the republi
can position not on narrow partisan
grounds, but on. tho broad principle
that wo must return to a government
of tho people, for the people and by
tho people."
Press Forum.
Tairbury (Nob.) Journal: The Unit
ed States scarcely waited until it was
born before recognizing the republic
of Panama, yet how many long and
weary years did tho republic of Cuba
wait before this country recognized
its independence? The first recogni
tion was prompted by commercialism;
tho last by the spirit of sympathy for
a people down-trodden and oppressed.

How quick we are to recognize a
chance to make profit for ourselves
and how slow to hear the sighs and
groans of our fellowmen.
Mansfield (O.) Shield: It is very
funny to hear men, wh die all in their
power to aid Mark Hanna in obtaining
a re-election to the TJnitec States sen
ate, talking about reorganizing the
democratic party. Whenever they
have the nerve to show tnemselves in
a democratic convention they should
bo hooted. They are the same fel
lows who voted against Bryan in 1896.
The democratic party is very much
alive, thanic you, and will be victor
ious as soon as it permanently repu
diates all sneaks and traitors.
Hartford (Conn.) Examiner: The
Monroe doctrine is all right to apply
1 others, but not to ourselves. Yet
the good, book of Christian ethics has
it to "Do unto others as you would
that others should do unto you." The
little Panama republic was evidently a
"put up job" between politicians of
Colon and Washington to facilitate
the building of the Panama canal, the
Washington end of the line securing
better terms and the other getting all
tae money into a smaller compass. In
other words, the butter will now be
spread on much thicker on their share
of tho loaf.
Bellefpnto (Pa.) Watchman: The
contract for the armor for the five new
battleships authorized by the last con
gress has just been awarded and dis
closes that sixteen thousand tons of
it will cost the government something
over six million dollars. This is a
mere bagatelle in the total cost of
these new boats which will hardly be
completed ere their models and arma
ment will have been made obsolete
by some new discovery in the build
ing of battleships. it Is sinful to
