Not a Wreck.

There are democratic editors, who, in
the bitterness of their disappointment at
the defeat of their party, are asking if
and there are other democrats who are
saying that the Democratic party is
hopelessly wrecked. We do not share
in the gloomy feelings in which they are
INDUCING. The Democratic party is not
wrecked and it not likely to be. 1t has
weathered many a political storm like
that of Nov. g. and, in all probability. it
will weather many more.
The Democratic party is the party of
the people and is loved by them. Its
principles promise the greatest good to
the greatest number, and it will there
fore continue to be one of the great par
ties of the country. 1t makes mistakes
and then the people punish it by taking
the control of the government from it
for awhile, but they do not lose confidence
in it.
If defeat meant destruction it would
have ceased to exist long ago. On last
Tuesday it received only a temporary
setback. Two years hence II may WIN
glorious victory. In 1890 and 1892 the Re-
publican party suffered bad defeats. It's
leaders did not regard it as wrecked
They gathered their forces, waited for
a favorable opportunity and arc again on
the topmost wave of prosperity. And so
it will be with the Democratic party.
The sharp edge of disappointment will
soon wear off and preparations for the
next contest will be begun. In that con-
test the Democratic party is just as like
ly to be victorious as not. The Democrat
ic party is not dead, or wrecked, or
disheartened. 1t is alive and vigorous
and will be heard from at the proper
time in way that will make it's adj
herents rejoice.

Fun for the Plain Girls.

They had certainly been rivals, says

facing the light and then the two plain
girls rejoiced that they had not departed

The Council Is All Right.

1t is unnecessary for Alderman Myers 10
defend the councils action in Offering re-
wards for the apprehension and conviction
Of the criminals who set fire to the cotton
ships. The people will not hnd fault with
that action. We have heard no nurmurs
against it and we don't think there will be
any.
Everybody in the city is interested in
having the criminals punished 1t is large
ly the duty of the city to have them caught
and punished No one doubts that il is the
city's duty TO protect property at any
cost The reward for those who fred the
cotton ships is in the nature OF protec-
ton.
The people viii stand by the council in
this matter. 1t to their interest to do so.

The Victorious Japanese.

Our dispatches this morning contain
a report that Port Arthur has been cap
tured. II the report is true it is probable
that the war between Japan and China is
near its end.
The Chinese have been anxious for peace
for some time. Prince Kung, representing
the Pekin government. has implorei the
European governments to intervene and
put a stop to the war. confessing that
China is unable to check the advance of
the japanese. England would like TO in
terfere, and save China from further hu-
initiation, not because she has any SYM
pathy for China, but because she has an
immense trade with her, and would like
to hold 1t by putting China under obli-
cations to her.
There is not any probability of Euro
pean interference, however. Russia and
France understand England's motive. and
they win not assist in depriving Japan
Of the fruits of her victory, neither will
they permit England to do what they
will not assist in doing.
There is only one thing for the Chinese
government to do, and that is to make
"A proposition for peace directly to the
Japanese government. 1t would be re-
ceived by Japan in proper spirit No
doubt Japan would insist upon debating
the terms of peace. 1t is her right to do
that, and she has the power to do it.
There is no reason, however, to think
cI1e,
regarded by the civilized world as unjust
She would not, for instance, insist upon
the ACKNOWLEDGMENT of the Chinese empire.
She could derive no benefit from com
pliance with a demand of that kind.
She would insist probably upon
the control of Korea, and an
indemnity that would compensate her
for the expenses incurred in the war
China has made a pitiful showing Of
strength. She has plenty of war material
of the best kind, guns and ships of the
latest make, and ten times the population
of Japan, but her prominent men are
more concerned in making money out of
war contracts than defending their coun-
try, and the common people are indiner-
ent whether the Japanese are victoria US Or
not. There is absolutely no patriotism in
China, and hence it is about impossible
to resist the advance of an aggressive
enemy. In fact, the common people ap-
pear to regard the japanese with less fear
than their own rulers. With such a state
of affairs 1t cannot be long before the
japanese will be able to dictate peace upon
their own terms.

They Saw the Coming Revolution.

There is plenty of evidence that Presi-
dent Cleveland and Richard Croker, the
eX-Tammany leader saw the coming po-
ntical revolution. The President fore
Swallowed it when he condemned the ac-
ton of the Senate in changing the charac-
ter of the Wilson tariff bill and refused to
sign the tariff bill that was finally passed.
He further foreshadowed it by refusing to
endorse Senator Hills candidacy, beliey-
ing, no doubt, that the senator would be
defeated and that, in that event, it would
be said that if he had not interfered the
democrats would have achieved better re-
suits He was wise enough to keep clear
of a contest in which he could render the
party no service.
Richard Croker saw more than a wear
ago that Tammany was doomed to de-
feat, and he resigned his position and re-
tired to private life Senator Faulkner.
the chairman of the democratic congress
sional committee. says there was only one
man who indicated to him that landslide
like that of Tuesday was possible, and
that man is Richard Croker Speaking of
NAAN 1Ait'1tNi ASNChAly MI II dulhHeT Sdlas
Sometime ago Mr.. CrolSer was present at
a meeting of the democratic congressional
committee in New York He then declared
that, no matter how much we fought or
how well, the republicans would sweep
the country. Hill would be beaten, he as
serted, New York city would be lost. and
the whole county would go the same way.
/ asked him how he bo gai, 4 I,
of politics. could find reasons upon which
to base such an opinion. Oh he ex-
planned, with a wave of his hand toward
the gentlemen in question, when l want to
find out what the political sentiment is I
don't ask Martin or Gilroy or the leaders
l get on street cars and go down the street
and talk with the men who have votes and
who don't know who am, and find out
that way the real drift"
And sure way it is that Mr. Croker has
of finding out the drift of public senti-
ment. The people do good deal of think
ing for themselves. They do not follow
blindly their leaders or the newspapers.
When things are not going to suit them
they speak their minds freely and they
vote as they think. The present congress
failed to please them at the last session
when it wasted weeks over the bill to re-
/ peal the purchasing clause of the sherman
silver law, and when it changed the Wilson
bill and delayed its passage for months
while the country was needing prompt ac-
ton. Before another national election
they may be willing. probably, to give the
/ democrats control of the House again.
