FINISHED BY ScRIBEs.

Not long ago there was an evening meeting
of a secular nature in the city which was at
tended by the reporters of the morning pa
pers. One of the gathering arose and aired
himself in a speech of thirty minutes. look
ing at the reporters table most of the time.
Another man arose and started in with an
evident determination to lay out the effort of
the first man. After forty minutes of lung
expansion he glanced a. the reporters, SEEM
ing to say, 81 know you haven't missed a
SYLLABLE and sat down with an air of tri-
umph. Four other men jumped to the floor,
and the one who was accorded 1t fixed a
steady gaze at the newspaper boys and began
to spread himself most vehemently. He
wound up at the end of fifty minutes, nod ded
his head at the table surrounded by the
scribes. as much as to say, "How do YOU
like that?" and settled into his chair. A
half-dozen men who had been wrigglfng lin
their seats made a desperate effort ito
capture the floor. The one who got it
elevated his shoulders with struggling
motion. placed the index finger Of his right
hand in the palm of his left. filled his lungs
until his face was red, and began pouring out
his volume of knockdown points at the re-
porters' table. In a few minutes he was
thrashing the air furiously. Thirty minutes
rolled by, and he was still thrashlng the air
with no apparent intention OF letting up.
Most every one who hadn't spoken was wrig-
CLING in his seat and glazing at the reporters
table. 1t was nearly Ii o'clocK, and nothing
of the business of the meeting had been
transacted; but still the man thrashed the
air. while those anxious to follow wriggled
in their seats. The reporters looked at each
other; then all arose together, filed out of
doors and sat down on dry goods box to
see how long it would take that meeting to
come to an end In five minutes the lights
went out, the people began pouring into the
street. and the reporters skipped. The next
morning the papers contained four-line ac-
counts of the meeting.

THE ILLUSION OF MIR. CURTIS.

GEORGE TICKNOR CURTIS has added
personal nOtoriety to his deserved fame
as a lawyer and eXpounder of constitu-
tional law by his change to Republican
ism during the campaign because Of his
inability to accept the tariff declaration
of the Chicago convention. One OF the
most beneficial results of that declara-
ton, as we'll as the most gratifying in Its
consequences, was that it drew the line
SO distinctly between the policies of the
two great parties that each individual
voter who guided his political action by
his own convictions of national policy
felt obliged to get on that side of the
line where his convictions found them
selves at home. 1t rendered it impos-
Bible for any man to remain Democrat
who believed that it is proper use OF
the taxing power of the government to
create. or build up OF support any
particular industry. 1t put the Dem
Dcratic party so unequivocalIy i'll hos
tility to such legislation that the Re-
publican who opposed that policy to
which his party so decisively committed
itself in the platform of 1888, and COIL
1irmed by the MCKINLEY act, could no
lOnger remain with it. The result fol-
lowed that always comes when new
ideas obtain political recognition and
pervade and fiuX ana disintegrate eX-
listing social organizations. Men began
nj once to rectify their partisan align
ment. Mr.. CURTIS and MIKE MCDON-
AID and several other prominent DEM
DcratS packed their political grips and
moved over to the other inn, where the
menu was more TO their taste. Like
wise, Judges GRESHAM, COOLEY, REA
Rnd Mr.. MCVEAGH, with other illus
fiiouS Republicans, babe their old party
farewell, and took up quarters at the
Democratic inn. This is right and
proper, and 10 one has just ground for
eavil at the course of any of them. The
Democracy certainly has no ground to
Hither regret its action OF deplore the
results.
But the singular phase of Mr.. CURTIS
Ease is that, while he still avows him
gelf staunch adherent of protection, he
Insists that be is Democrat. In re-
rent letter to the secretary of the Pro-
tective Tariff league he declares that
"we want no competition between our
manufacturers and foreigners in our
own markets in respect to the same ar
tieles." He insists that it is rightfnl,
as well as constitutional, use of power
to shut off this competition by taxation.
He is in close accord with the Repub-
iicans i'll this. He is at swords points
with the Democrats, who deny both the
right and the constitutionality. He is
possessed of the paternalistic theory of
government. He is as orthodox Re-
publican as MCKINLEY himself And
yet he does not seem to realize the fact +:
does not perceive any change in him
self; fails to sense the incongruousness
OF his position, and really believes he is
Still Democrat. Mr.. CURTIS is not a
Democrat. He should know that he is
not, and quit making himself ridiculous
by pretending that he is.

PROGRESSIVE DEMOCRACY

The voters of our party have made it
a "Triumphant Democracy" There
are triumphS which are defeats. Such
was the Republican triumph of 1888.
Promising tariff revision and reduc
ton, but only asking that the task be
given to sits friends" that party took
the gift of power as if it were an unfim-
tied license. 1t revised the tariff into
McKinleyism. 1t proceeded to reduce
the surplus by squandering it, and
boosted that its was billlon-doIlar
congress and that this was billion
dollar country. 1t threw to the winds
its pretense of civil service reform, and
has kept TEDDY ROOSEVELT on hot
chase after the violators of the law ever
since. The nepotism of GRANT blushed
at the distance pole. 1t was most dis
astrouS victory.
The Democracy may win similar de-
feat from its triumph. 1t may make it
the foundation of an enduring tenure.
1t is at the parting of the ways. 1t has
but one danger. 1t has men in its coun-
sells whose direction will lead it to de-
feat. They are the survivors of the
class of leaders who did much to mail-
tain the long minority of the party.
They are reactionists; the crabs of party,
who progress backwards. They do not
sense the later movements of the party :;
do not realize the new forces which
are dominating it. They will try to
prevent the party from redeeming the
pledges which secured the confidence
of the people. They must go to the
rear if our success is to be made more
than transitnry. We must not permit
them to make us fool the people.
But there is need of care only; none
of fear. Everything indicates that the
party has become the progressive in
stead of the conservative party it
once was. 1t has snapped places with
its antagonist. TOM REEDS rear guard
has become the vanguard, and it is not
going to wait for the rear guard to
'catch up" 1t was long step forward
when its national convention impa-
tiently tore out the paltering declara-
ton about tariff safeguarding Amer
lean labor and boldly declared prOtec-
ton by taxation fraud and robbery.
1t was more striking evidence of cour-
ageous advance when it set aside the
advice of caution and all presidents,
and named as its choice for president a
man whose state delegation was bitterly
opposed to him. 1t was only party
imbued with high purpose and progress
i've ideas which would have dared to
take the unprecedented action Of select
ing as its candidate an eX-president
once defeated for reelection. These
give abundant promise that there will
be no backward step, and that the
Democracy of today is both triumphant
and progressive.

AT ELL PASO

While an international conference has
been discussing the silver question at
brussels, Southwest American con-
ference has been metaphorically taking
fhe hide off of the goldolators in a series
of preambleS and resolutions bearing
the date of Ell Paso, Tex. Bristling de-
nunciation of all public personages who
disagree with its views has marked the
progress of this Ell Paso conference;
and for fear the objects of its wrath
might remain in blissful ignorance of
the scOrching they are getting, the con-
ference has ordered its secretary to send
them marked copies of the condemna-
tory resolutions. The president, the
presldent-elect and crafty old JOHN
SHERMAN come in for the lions share
of abuse, and the resolutions the con-
ference has sent them will do to use as
fy-blisters.
But these resolutions are not the sole
product of this very animated confer
ence. Between roaStS the conference
has organized the Pan-American BIZ
metallic association. "Pan-Americann
Is antique for "All-Ameriean," and
that the scope of the association does
not belle its name is sufficiently revealed
by the list of officers: president, A.
C. FISK, Colorado; secretary, G. B.

SHEEDY, Colorado;" ETC., etc., ''Color-
ado" Colorado is All-Ameriea to these
silveriteS, or, at any rate the greatest
part of it; and, therefore, we repeat
that the Pan-Ameriean B-metallic
Association of Colorado is we'll named.
But silver will never take its rightful
position in the world until the silver
mine owners of Colorado leave off con-
stituting themselves into All-Amercan
