NEWSPAPER OPINION
A raotioAl ATistake.

n IAotlcAl mistake.
Providence journal.
1t seems to be generally agreed among
the shrewdest Democratic leaders outside
OF Ohio that, apart from all questions of
the soundness or unsoundness Of free
coinage ideas, the silver plank OF the
Buckeye Democracy was a tactical mis-
take. And that, after all has been said
that can be said about the so o-called free
coinage feature OF the Ohio plat
form, is about the sum and substance Of
She whole matter Undeniably
the plank in question was a tacti-
cal mistake, and one OF the gravest
sort, that possibly involves most serious
consequences to those who assume re-
sponsibility for H. But 1t was no more
than tactical mistake, and it has com
mltted the Democratic party to nothing
except the consequences of tactical
mistake. 1t could not be more or do
more because the plank itself was framed
for onlya tactical or political purpose
No fair manded man can say that the
declaration OF the Ohio Democrats re-
garding gold coinage really sets forth
the accepted Democratic principal on this
subject.
What this accepted principal is or what
II Is going to be may be very important
question at this time; but 1t is not an
swered in the Ohio platform. A declara-
tion that can be- read In more than one way
settles nothing; and the currency plank
OF the Ohio Democrats is In reality no
more and no less OF an endorsement OF
the unlimited and unguarded coinage Of
silver than is the corresponding plank OF
the Ohio Republicans. The difference
between the two Is mainly In boldness OF
ohraseology, the Democrats being the
less skillful in employing words to obscure
