DEAD AND LIVE PARTIES.

From the Cleveland World.
The Scranton Tribune differs from the
World in respect to the "deadness Of the
Democratic party" 1t is not dead but it
ought to be, 1t says. and proceeds to show
why the party Is not what 1t Ought to
be-" 1t says that 1t exists for mere pur-
poses of obstruction. "Relieved now Of
the duty of going forward. 1t can devote
its energies to pulling backward" "And
inasmtch as every aggressive move of its
rival party necessarily engenders friction
and disappointments 1t will by natural
gravtation attract to itself the entire
brood of malcontents, renegades and
kickers, and thus reinforced will again
prove u formidable antagonist"
Our esteemed Pennsylvania contempo-
rary comes nearer to agreeing with the
World than it thinks 1t does. Although 1t
talks OF live party 1t describes a dead
one. Mere obstructive parties are In po-
litical physiology dead parties. Because
the moment they are put in the place Of
live parties they are paralyzed. 1t is true
that If the Democratic party were out Of
the way its place would be filed by an
other. but that would also be either an OBJ
structive party, Incapable of carrying out
any aggressive ideas, or 1t would be a
party with some new Ideas. which II sue
cessful you'd make live party Of 1t.
For example, the ow-nothing party
came forward with a new idea and took
the place Of the dead Whig party. If the
idea had been worth anything the Know
nothing would have lived and become a
live party. But 1t had no idea that was
worth saving and the Republican party
supplanted 1t with an idea that became
in time part Of the constitution and
organization Of the country. party may
be dead and yet have an organization and
be Capable Of good deal Of mischief and
nothing else. But that is a sign of politi-
cal death. For mischief in a government,
II successful, Is death.
