IT seems to us the present Legisla-
ture is sowing arare harvest of dis
aster for the Democratic party. The
rumors of revolt against it's action
arise from every quarter of the State.
It is no falsehood to say that ten
thousand votes have been lost in the
past two weeks. If an election were
to take place tomorrow, the party
would simply lose everything. 1t
would be wiped out. How far pop
ular opinion may be modified by the
time the Assembly election comes
around in November, we do not pre-
tend to say. Time is a great healer
of political AS well as other injuries,
and some of the present wrath may be
forgotten. Let US hope SO.
But it will not be prudent for the
Legislature TO accumulate causes of
irritation. 1t has made already all
the record that it or the party can
stand.
1t is time to stop.
