Whatevrr may be ones individ
uAl opinion, Il is clearly apparent
that the action Of fprnminent gold
Democrats, in trying TO get the sd.
ministralion to remove Democratic
officials in . number Of states be.
cause they supported Bryan, is not
calculated TO wipe ous the existing
bitterness between the regular
Democrats and the bolters. In the
posIuthce department alone attacks
are being made BY the bollers upon
more than fifty presidential post
masters Il is not likely that any
considerable number of these, or
any other officials the nomination
uf whose successors has 10 be con.
hrmed by the Senate, will be re.
moved, esause, whatever may bs

Is ceFta that the Senate as Al
present constituted viii not cOn6ru
the nomination Of any gold Demo
crat for a position from which
man Was removed for no other rea
son than that he followed his con
victims and supported silver. Tha
knowledge will probably preven
action by the administration on lh
complaints Of the gold Democrt.
