reading wear with the American people.
II imposes extraordinary duties ON jour
mails from which the people may usual
~ expect not Only the news OF the dnv,
bat ntolligcnt discussion of public qucs-
tons and enunriation of opinions. While
this is true in II general sense the wear he-
fore MS is likely, |" n political sense, to he
one of unusual interest; the Democratic
party Is breaking up, and there are I'm lica-
tons of alliances and purposes altogether
novel in our politics. The elections Of the
past year have resulted In almost an un-
broken series of Republican Victories
