Tho Democratic Party,s Failure.


The final and utter collapse Of the
democratic party in the presence Of the
grandest opportunities that ever came
70 any political party in the history Of
this nation is simply marvellous. No
party ever made greater promises, ever
had greater opportunities, or made a
more signal failure. Under the leader
ship of Grover Cleveland, who was
worshiped as a party idol-raised to
pedestal higher than his party, the
party has gone down in ignominy and
reproach, so far and so low that even
its strongest partisans scarcely have
the courage to defend it. Cleveland's
second administration has been char
acterized with stupendous incapacity
in every department Of government.
The Fifty-third cOngress-which he
had on his hands, and the policy of
which he nodded with his own sweet
will, has already gone down in history
as the most venal and corrupt that has
ever assembled in our history. His
cabinet selections were either nObodies
or men plastic in his hands, the mem
bers Of which might have been fourth
class department clerks for all the in
auence they seem to have with the
executive. The picture is not one for
partisan exultation. 1t is too serious
for that. There is a point at which
partlsanism ends and patriotism be-
gins. While partisan zeal may prompt
a strong opposition there is naught but
humiliation in the hearts of all true
patriots when they see party sink so
low and prove itself so hopelessly in
capable as the democratic party has
shown itself to be in the two years Of
the present administration. All this
after thirty-three years Of promises!
All this with an overwhelming ma
1ority in congress backed by an execu-
tor Of the party's choice! All this after
the most whitening rebuke ever adj
ministered to any party was given to
the republicans in 1892! What can the
rank and file in the democratic party
expect in the future by remaining in It?

Charles Dickens, speaking Of the
eliminating horrors Of the French
revolution, says: There is not in
France with all its rich variety of soil
and climate, a blade, leaf, a root,
sprig, a peppercorn, which viii grow
to maturity under conditions more Ger
tain than those that have produced this
horror. Crush humanity out Of shape
once more under similar hammers and
1t will twist itself into the same tor
tured forIus. Sow the seeds of rapac-
ity, license, and oppression over again
and It will surely yield the same fruit
according 20 its kind"

Particulars of the Drowning OF ncnder

across the rive, to be used as a cable to
cross skiffs by, and when in mid-stream
the boat overturned and the men thrown
into the Icy water. Both Henderson and
Johnson were good swimmers and i'm
mediately started for the shore, which
they never reached. The third party
stayed with the boat and finally reached
the shore in safety. While clinging to
the boat he saw the two men standing
on bar about 100 yards below him hold
ing on to each other but the water was
so swift that they were washed off the
bar and were never seen again.

A SHARP REBUFF TO THE KAISER
Defeat OF the Anti-RevolutIon Bill In
glorious Failure for uoncnlohe.

London, May ia dispatch to the
Times from Berlin says: When the last
paragraphs of the anti-revolution bill
were read out scarcely one conservative
remained true to the government. Thus
ended ingloriously the long fight in de-
fense of religion, morality and social or
der. What consequences are to be ex-
pected from this first defeat of the Ho-
henlohe ministry and who Is to blame
chiefly for the fiasco are questions now
exclusively occupying the public mind
of Germany. 1t will not be surprising
to learn that the defeat of the anti-rev-
olution bill creates vacancy in the
Prussian council of ministers. That no
result was obtained is, in the first place,
owing to the fact that the champions
of religion morality and social order
have been unable to subordinate their
own wishes to the general good. The
radical and socialist organs are highly
delighted.
The Times in a leader this mrning
says: THE decision is a serious one,
and perhaps the most serious feature
is that it seems to be thoroughly popular
with some of the most important classes
of the state. 1t is an unmistakable re-
buff to the policy proclaimed by the
kaiser himself in his famous speech at
Koenigsberg last September. That the
result will be welcomed by large num-
ber of his subjects is not very salts

CRESPO THE IDOL OF VENEZUELA
Popular Demonstration In Support of
the Presidents Policy.

Washington, May 12.-Recent ad-
vices reaching the Venezuelan legation
tell of popular demonstration at Car
acas in which 10000 people gathered to
the support of President Crespo's poll
cy. The demonstration centered at the
yellow house." which is President
Crespo's official residence. The gather
Ing represented all political parties and
was meant as ratification of the pres
idents course in obliterating party
lines and forming a cabinet from all
the political elements in existence. The
result has proven very satisfactory, as
the demonstration indicates.
1t is said to have no direct bearing
on the British-Venezuela question fur
ther than In showing the harmony and
strength of the Crespo administration
on all questions of public policy. The
venezuelan papers are printing with
much favorable comment the recent
expressions of the American press on
the British-Venezuela question.
The Venezuela congress, now in ses-
sion, Is giving its main attention to per-
fecting the law code, patterned after
the Napoleonic code, which prevails
throughout all the states of Venezuela.
Venezuela has a gold standard, with
the bolivar, named after the liberator,
her standard coin. 1t is made of both
gold and silver, but the former domi-
mates and makes the standard for both
coins.
