tains the notion that il is necessary to pol
ish ND the war record of the Democrats in order
to Justify Mr.. Conkling in organizing new
party with the ultimate result of bringing tts
Democrats into power. 1t is true as stated
that the Republicans have relied very largely
for more than twenty years on "popular pre-
judice against the Democratic party Though
we fail to discover any consolation for DEM
ocrats in the fact-but it requires considerable
eflrontery to say that the Democratic party
neither opposed the war nor declared the war
a failure. Those two facts are historical. liz
is both too early and too late to dispute them.
Too early because they are within the personal
knowledge of the present generation TOO late
because they have passed too long unchal-
lenged. True. any one of q dozen prOmiI ent
Republicans might have penned the resolution
declaring the war failure. SO might any one
of dozen American officers have penned Ar
nold's letters to Sir Henry Clinton, and any one
of the Twelve might have negotiated with the
chief priests, only it so happened that none OF
them did, and we have never Heard Arnold or
Judas defended on any such ground.
But all this is aside from the matter in hand,
which is that suggested by Mr. Conklings

ton of a new party by that able and popular
leader. lie may or may not have been think
ing of such an enterprise when he spoke OF the
lightness with which party ties are just now
resting upon men, and he may or may not have
indicated the leading issue of the new party
when he referred to the extravaganza appropri-
atoms voted by Congress. Two or three DEM
ocratc newspapers evidently take that to be
the meaning of the speech. They rejoice to see
a lvosenng of party ties anywhere excepting in
the Democratic party, and they are earnestly OPP
posed to large appropriations from which they,
being out of power, will receive 70 advantage.
So they hail the possibility of a new party, such
as they hope Mr.. Conkling c0ntemplates lead
ing out some fine morning with great enthu-
siasm. But having observed many Republicans
of prominence 90 into retirement with
headache during the last few years, from
several of whom the Democrats expected great
things in the wa Of Il new party only 10 DE

plans. We remember that the same persons
who are expecting him to create political

LIE WAR IND SECURITIES.

IT is common impression that the demand
for American securities must be greatly I'M
proved by the war in Europe The strong puy
ing which has appeared within the past week,
though sufficiently explained by the improved
prospects of the crops and of business at home,
is by SOME supposed to be evidence OF a sudden
anxiety of foreign investors to transfer their
funds to American stocks and bonds. Probably
the effect of the war thus far has been much
less than is generally supposed. Any actual
transfer of funds from European to American
investments involves selling abroad as well as
buying here, and the foreign markets have not
been disturbed by any noteworthy disposition
to sell on the part of investors. 1t Is the 1act'
too, that many persons abroad, VINO usually
hold American securities but have been nearly
out of them for some months, because they
doubted whether the crops III this country
would prove satisfactory, have recently Deeh
convinced that the yield this year Will De
large, and have therefore been buying secur-
tiles. Purchases by such persons may be
mistaken, in some cases. for effects of the out
break of wal in Egypt.
Indeed, there is no good reason for parting
with foreign securities merely because Great
Britain has opened fire on the forts at the
mouth of the Nile. For it is by no means GER
tain that any prolonged contest in Egypt will
result. or that other Powers will be drawn
into the conflict. If England is left to settle
with Egypt and Turkey, without armed inter-
ference by any other Power, the contest is not
likely TO take such form that English or
French securities would become less valuable
or safe. In the absence of any strong evidence
that there will be such interference by any
Power sober investors are not apt to transfer
money from foreign to American securities III
sucb amounts as to affect the markets. Events
NAV occur, at almost any moment, which would
naturally cause such "a transfer but it is prob
ably little premature to suppose that "a move
ment of that character has yet been felt in the
Stock Exchange.
Speculative buying on foreign account, how
ever, is even more important than buying foI
investors. In other countries, as IN this, the
constant aim of spectators Is to anticipate,
if they can, the movement OF permanent
holders. A great deal of buying, based upon
an opinion that troubles in Europe Will ultl-
matey cause heavy investments in American
securities, has already taken place. 1t Is Il
matter of conjecture how far operations OF that
character will continue, but our markets are
likely to be influenced to some extent by for
eign operations of this sort, so long as the out
come of the Egyptian war is uncertain. with
news Indicating that England may be drawn
into war with other European Powers, the mar
kets here are likely to be affected by i'll
| creased purchases from abroad, and, with news
of an opposite character, by increased sales.
