POLITICAL ORGANIZATIONS.

How They Are Necessary TO heep alive
External Vigilance, the Price of Lib
erty."
Some pretentious doctrinaires and
professional reformers of our time in
dulge in lot of silly and mischievous
cant when advertising their own ex-
allied PROJECTIONS and their contempt
for political parties and partisans. In
their estimation political party is
something to be Stunned and de-
nounced-a confederacy of rogues and
spoilsmen, of obnoxious bosses and
henchmen. An earnest, sturdy, con-
sistent partisan they look upon as a
person dominated by prejudice and
passion rather than by reason and cool
reflection. These are the theorists and
idealists who contend that President
or Governor should utterly disregard
the wishes and suggestions of his own
party, and who clamor for the appoint
ment of ''non-partisans" to all the Of
fees. More noisy than numerous,
these oracles try to create the impress
sion that permanent parties are evils to
be uprooted and that Jealous party
service should earn distrust instead OF
recognition or reward.
Chatter of that sort is fatuous and
would be pernicious if it gained any
large number of converts among the
rising generation. Political parties are
the best and safest instrumentality yet
devised by human ingenuity or effort
for the maintenance and administration
of free institutions. They are not the
creations of chance or caprice. They
embody definite principles, aims and
tendencies. They are the medium
through which the deliberate judgment
of the people is ascertained and exc
cuted. If the party entrusted with
power betrays its trust or shows itself
incapable, the opposing party stands
ready to assume its tasks and functions.
In either case the party is the people.
The officials elected or appointed, from
President or Governor down to consta-
BILE or pound-master, are the servants
of the people and are pledged to carry
out fairly and honorably the policy out
lined by their party. These are whole
some truths, and any material depart
ure from them in practice is certain to
be productive of bad results. When a
party advocates obnoxious principles or
dominates unworthy men, those W

Until, ut length, there seemed to be
blending of the sea and sky,
Which hid her stately form from me.
And then sat me down and thought
OF all that vessel hapIY bore,
The wealth, the jewels deftly wrought,
The merchandise, the goodly store
OF all that men might need or crave
To give them comfort or delight;
But rs pondered on the wave
And on the tempest in its might,
And on that vessel all alone
