POLITICAL.
"The split in the republican party oc
curred the clay that Robert M. La Fol-
lette was inaugurated governor of the
state of Wisconsin , " says the Milwau
kee Sentinel ( rep. ) . "It was publicly
recognized last Saturday , when the senate -
ate passed a resolution of censure upon
Governor La Follette's veto message of
the Hagemeister bill. Republicans and
democrats alike recognize that a repub
lican factional fight is now in progress
from one end of the state to the other. "
"Were the president so disposed , he
could , under his extraordinary powers ,
reduce the present tariff on Cuban su
gar to a figure low enough to give Cuba
the market she needs"suggeststhe Bal
timore American ( rep. ) . "This would
be a humane act , without serious consequences
quences to our interests ; it would make
the Cubans our friends , go far toward
settling the problem of government , and
be generally beneficial. The president
should take the action indicated with as
little delay as possible. "
"What some of the 'democratic lead
ers' not all of them , but the lewd fel
lows of the baser sort what these in
their hearts want , is that the president
should appoint to office in the south a
host of negroes , and the more offensive
the negroes , the more cordially
would their appointment be hailed , "
says the Charlotte ( N. 0. ) Observer
( dem. ) "This would give excuse
for a continuation of the cry of 'negro
domination' and 'white supremacy , ' de
prived of which these pothouse politi
cians will soon find their occupation
gone. "
"President McKinley has clearly
ceased to be a protectionist , according
to the creed of the Boston Home Market
club , which denounced with indigna
tion the treaty of reciprocity with
France in a letter to the president , " the
Portland Oregonian ( rep. ) says. "The
president's plan favors the adoption of
reciprocity under the name of extend
ing the protective system. He sees that
the building up of our foreign trade in
manufactured goods is the duty of the
hour. The president , always an oppor
tunist , is sailing with the wind. "
"At present the old-line southern
democrat is face to face with the dis
agreeable fact that his party has aban
doned some of its most cherished prin
ciples , and that the republican party
has greedily appropriated the same , "
explains the Maoon ( Ga. ) Telegraph
( dem. ) . "He is also aware that the re
publican party of today is as friendly
toward his section as is the dominant
element of the democracy , which , ' ;
strange to say , is still found in the
north , where the democracy is weakest.
Thus he cannot accept in tote the platform -
form of either party , and , what is still .
more peculiar , he is not free , on account
