stage, there is no reason to apprehend further
complications. Mr.. Shepard will now devote
himself to the work to which he has been as
signed and we have no doubt that the lawyer
appointed instead of ex-Judge Reynolds VIII
heartily cooperate with him. 1t is no reflection
upon the professional or personal character OF
Mr. Reynolds to say that better selection could
have been originally made. He has explained
his physical untitness for the task, and fur
nished an additional proof of his sincerity ana
public spirit by declining to assume response
bilty which was likely to Overtax his strength.
1t is most desirable that his place should be
filed by a lawyer thoroughly convcrsant with
criminal procedure and capable Of employing
all proper means to thwart the shrewdest an
tagonists and win the peoples case If eX-
Secretary Tracy is prepared to meet the wishes
of the Citizens Committee and lend his special
abilities and experience to the prosecution, per-
haps no better associate could be found for

sumably this Is in the main because prices were

Is not essential to this argument whether the

than ANYTHING The Tribune has said on the
subject We do not quite make out whether
the self shnrss and stupidity of these Democrats
consist in their having voted for tariff reform
I'm 1890 and 1892 or in their present desire 10
have il applied To every section Save their own
whichever may be- the meaning OF The
World" It is rot or view. We continue 10
believe that the people made a mistake In lS.o
and 1892: that they have since found 1t out,
and that they are not ashamed TO confess H.
The majority may be in greater or less degree
selfish: they are certainly not infalliblc, as The
World " 80 frequently contcndcd; bat neither
are they stupid and it Is foolish to call
them so.
