WHAT do our Democratic contempt

WHAT do our Democratic contempo-

all of which oppose the Gdzette's prop
osition to make David r. Francis lead
er of the State Democracy in the next
political contest, think of his selection
of Lon w. Stephens for State Treasur-
err after the delinquency of Treasurer
holland had seriously damaged Democ-
racy in public Estimation? Wasn't
that an act of honest service to the
party, not to speak of hundreds OF 9th
er equally satisfactory proofs of his fl
deity to the cause of DemOcracy?-De
Soto Gazette.
The claim of the Gazette philosopher
that Francis should be placed in charge
of the party organization in this State,
because he selected an honest State
Treasurer,is very similar to that of Vic
McFunk to be elected constable be-
cause, as he said, he had made his dog
'sthe all .fredcst smartest dog on earth!'
He thought that any man that could
train a dog could run the constable's
office. The Gazette philosopher seems
to think that because Mr.. Francis
made a fortunate hit in selecting a
State Treasurer, we should make
deed 10 him of the party organization.
The brand of the Democracy of ex-
Governor Francis is the same as that
of the Republic. and that kind does not
go in Southeast Missouri. Should ex-
Governor Francis be placed in charge
of the party organization, it will be
case of leader without followers. Our
experience with Tory President
makes US a little suspicious OF Tory
Ex-Governor.

THE Democratic party is now face
to face with the most serious crisis OF
its existence. Whenever it has an
open enemy and a fair field. victory
is foregone conclusion. But 1t no
longer has an open enemy; the seat OF
conflict has been transferred TO its own
ranks. The trusts and corporations
have succeeded in insinuating their
extent that they almost, if not quite.
control the party machinery. Politi-
cal consistency is sneered at, and the
man who refuses to trade the funda-
mental principles of his party for the
pottage OF the pie-couuter is derided as

A noticeable feature in the recent
launch of the New British battle ship
Magnificent, says the New York Sun,
was that when she slipped into the
water, and thereupon received her
name, bottle of claret was broken
over her bows instead of the custom
airy bottle of champagne. There is no
special reason. apparently, for choos-
ing one kind of wine rather than
another for this ceremony of christen-
ing, and one advantage of the ruby of
the claret is that it adds e bit of clear
~ visible color to the point on which
all eyes are fixed. Some worthy peO-
pie who do not like to look upon the
wine when it is red, nor. indeed, when
it is colorless. dislike this traditional
practice of christening ships with it.
When Mrs. Cleveland performed that
ceremony for the new American liner
ST. Louis, at Philadelphia, a while
ago, temperance organization want
ed her to use water, and, we believe,
took the precaution of sending her
bottle of that fluid for the purpose.
But she employed the customary bev-
erage of champagne instead, and, on
the whole, there could scarcely be an
objection to it even by the strongest
disciples of Neal Dow, if it were never
us ed more harmfully than in pouring a
propitiatory libation to Neptune.
However, that the habit of christening
wine is only fashion that might pass
away became clear when the Italians
arranged new ceremony for the
christening of the Stella. 1t was de-
cided that the godmother should at
tach to the prov of the ship ring
made in imitation of the one employed
at the festival of the Bucintoro, with a
small star in the centre bearing the
Kings initials, so placed that they
should first touch the water. That
was a return to the method of the re-
public of Venice, under which the
marriage of the city to the Adriatic
was freshly celebrated whenever a war
ship was launched from the stocks in
to the sea.

THE Republic has a new theory of
Democracy: Home rule for states is
right" it says; s.but in practice the
right is rightly exercised when States
show that they are capable of effectual
government" Again, Freedom be-
longs to all who can use it rightly, and
to none others" Here's Democracy
with a vengeance!-of kind to make
An old school Democrat rub his
specs aud become profane. Democrats
have been under the delusion, for a
century or so, that the people were the
source of all political power; that all
just governments derived their right
to exist from the consent of the gov
erned. But this delusion is dissipated
by the flood of light cast upon the SUBJ
ject by the Republic. States have no
right to home rule unless they develop
a capacity to properly exercise :his
right! That is exactly the ground
upon which the Tories of England de-
ny to the Irish the right of self-govern-
ment. That was the precise position
taken by the Republican party at the
close of the war in regard to the South
ern States. The Tory party of England
constitutes itself the tribunal to deter
mine when the Irish have developed
sufficient capacity for Home Rule.
The Republic would have its masters of
Wall and Lombard Streets pass upon
the capacity of State to control its
own domestic economy. before it should
be permitted to enjoy its constitutional
rights. The Republic wants the peo-
pie protected from their own folly by
the strong arm of the Shylocks that
control it. The fountain can rise high
er than its source, it seems. The
pond is purer than the stream that
feeds it. The President is purer and
better than the people who elected him,
and has superior knowledge and a
more profound capacity than the united
wisdom of his party, and of course
should be permitted to dictate its poll
cy, and say when States are, or are not,
capable of self-go 5ernment. Every
autocrat of the Old World will grant
you that freedom belongs to all who
can use it rightly. and to none others"
and they will concede cheerfully that
they are the only persons in the world
who have arrived at that stage of de-
velopment which entities one to free
dom. How comforting the Republic
must be to these people! How cheer
fully will the Gar of all the Russias
enroll himself in the ranks of this new
Away with the old fogy
notions of Jefferson! Jefferson was a
fraud, anyway, according to the disci-
pies of this old faith painted anew.
The Devil may conceal his horns and
tail: he may succeed in Disgusting his
foot so that it will not be recognized
at oLce. The Tory can be arrayed in
every habiliment of liberty; but, like
the ass that donned the lions skin. his
braying gives him away.
