POPULISM AND PRACTICABILITY.

The question before the Populists in
the congressional contest now pending
in the Sixth district is one of practical
politics. In the terse and comprehensive
sentence OF Grover Cleveland, it is "a
condition and not theory which con-
fronts them" The California Dem
ocracy ia in warm sympathy with the
Populsts' antagonism to corporate ag-
gresaion and monopoly. This is unmis-
takably evidenced by the clear ard
positive declarations of their county,
district and state platforms, and typitied
in the character Of their candide.e7. The
apeoiiic opportunity afforded in this
congressional district for demonstrating
their sincerity has been utilized by the
Democrats in manner that should
meet the expectations of the IN est
ardent Popqlists. The Issues OF supreme
importance to our people are those in.
volyed in the prope. adjustment OF the
Central and Union Pacific railroad debts,
and the Development Of free herbor.
These iseues have put TO the test the
value OF Democratic professions. and the
party has responded t. that test with q
platform and e congregational candidate
entitled to the enthusiastic support of
every PopuliEt who ia in earnest in his
opposition to the pretensons Of monop-
oily. The members OF the Peoples party
know that their candidate has not the
remotest chance of success; that every
vote cast for him will be absolutely void
80 far as practical results of the kind
they desire are concerned. That the
rea, effect will be to asaist the candi-
date who is notoriously the output of
the railroad machine" Ths latter
will receive hall vote every tina one
is deposited for Bowman. We believe
the Populists are honest in their fight
with the enemies OF the pso-
pie, bat ii they fritter away
their strength in endeavoring to
achieve the impossible. their contest
will provo futile. The way to battle
with wrong 10 to assail it in whatever
form it may appear, and to do go with
the instruments at hand. In the crisis
OF battle an army cannot spend its timo
specula!ing about the weapons it pre-
fera, or that it should have, or expects to
have. 1t must take up those it has at
hand then. In the accomplish ment OF
ends by political means, we must adopt
the policy OF nature. and work along the
linee OF least resistance. In this con-

end they should do it in the most expe-
ditious way. For the hour and the occa-
sion, Mr. Patton is the man they need.
He may or he may not be such on other
issues; the issues we have mentioned
are before us now, the others are not.
We think Mr.. Patton will be elected;
the signs are ali that way. We know he
will be elected if the Populists do their
duty as men of practical common sense.
Mr.. Bowman cannot be elected, and his
supporters are fully cognz.nt of tho
fact. Will our Populist friends do q little
thinking?

BEN. ". MADDOX.

No more worthy man aspires for Office
this year than Ben. NJ. Maddox, the
Democratic nominee for secretary of
state. Mr.. Maddox is a journalist by
profession, and his paper has been an
unfinching opponent OF corporate sg-
gression, and has never failed to take
the peoples side. Mr.. Brown, the Re-.
publican nominee, is the offspring Of the
Burns convention at Sacramento, and
such was the opposition to him within
his own party that E. G.. Waite was
urged by the leading men OF the Repub-
lican party to run Independently. Mr..
Waite died few days ago. but it is safe
to assume that Mr.. Maddox will get the
independent Republican vote which ne
