THE ST. LOUIS CONVENTION.

The managers of the Democratic party
are counting on disagreements at the St.
Louis convention 10 open the way for q
Democratic victory, but their wish is
father TO their expectations. There will
be disagreements at first, as there should
be, and harmony will finally prevail, as it
should. This is great country from
every point of view. There are business
interests that are wide apart and more or
less conflicting. Naturally, and therefore
properly, strong efforts will be made by
this, that and the other section of the
country to secure the greatest number of
advantages. There will be STRIFE for the
supremacy of interests here and interests
there, and great and powerful speeche
will be made in which the Importance of
making this or that economic principle
paramount will DE set forth, and the con-
vention and the country will be all the
better for it because of the ocean of infor-
nation that will be given; besides, it is
right that each section of the country
should have opportunity TO make its needs
known.
But when it comes to building a final
declaration of principles it will be found
that the platform was born of har-
monious adjustment of all interests upon
the broad basis of the greatest possible
good to the whole country. The Republi-
can party was commissioned third of a
century ago to carry the United States
from level to level of solid and permanent
advancement, and that commission has
never been revoked by the spirit of the
purpose of the Nations existence. The
requirements of the country are not
wholly as they were a third of a century
ago. They are more complex and far
reaching than ever before, which requires
the application OF the clearest and most
comprehensive system of economics Com
development Of new trade commodities
and distribution agencies IN recent years
has enlarged the field of the Republican
party's work. Hence there will be plans
and suggestions submitted to the st. Louis
convention that will antagonize one
another, but out of il all there will arise
ways, means and measures which will
cement all factions in one solid, har-
monious and determined whole. Every
State, the whole country, the world and
humanity need the Republican party, and
1t will continue the one great ethical,
social, economic and political agent of the
process of mans advancement to the
higher planes of existence. The Democ-
racy may watch and pray for the disrup-
ton of the Republican party, but it will
wait in vain.
