La Toilette Wouldn't Trade.

Since Mr.. La Toilette became
formidable as candidate for gov
ernor, the management Of the repub-
lican machine has been more alarm
ed than at any previous time in its
history. This is evidenced by the fact
that the machine is now willing to
treat with Mr.. La Toilette. whereas
heretofore It has felt sufficiently
strong to make no concessions what
ever. Under flag Of truce one of
the leaders OF the opposition waited

to support Mckinley and Hobart are
properly denominated republican
boilers; villas and his associates who
refuse to support Bryan and Sewell
are democratic boilers. Both Of these
revolt against majority rule in their
respective parties, as they have q
perfect right to do. To this point
these two factions occupy the same
relative position In the politics OF the
country; but from thence on they are
radically different. The Tellerites
surrender all claim TO recognition as
republicans, and boldly walk into the
Bryan camp, taking with them, prob
ably, the electoral votes Of several
formerly republican states. The
Whistles insist that they are still
democrats, and decline to serve under
the Mckinley banner unless the re-
publicans will abandon all their party
principles, except the money plank !
and this white it is doubtful il these
boiling democrats can bring TO Me-
Kinley single electoral vote, their
strength being almost entirely in re-
liably republican states.
Because republicans insist that a
protective tariff Is a vital principle,
to be maintained with and in support
OF a sound financial policy, these
boiling democrats charge Mckinley
and Ills party with lack Of patriot
ism, with devotion to party before
country. etc. This was the tenor of q
recent letter by w. G. Whitney,
which is the text Of much that is
heard from gold democrats in de-
nunciation Of the republicans as un-
patriotic partisans. Mr.. Whitney
practically says that the republican
party should repudiate all Of its plat
form, except the money planA, in
order to catch the votes Of gold DEM
ocrats. some Of his fellow boilers go
much farther In the same direction,
demanding division Of the honors
and spoils Of victory as a condition OF
their support Of Mckinley, for in
stance a democratic paper Of Ply
mouth, inthis state, which is opposed
to Bryan, but says
II the republicans will not claim q
triumph for their party If Nc kinley
IL elected, but acknowledge 1t vic
tory Of sound over an unsound cur
reney, retain in office postmasters
chat give such universal satisfaction
as the one at this place does, and
concede something to the state dem
ocracy. there would be some sense in
talking about reunion between the
gold standard men Of the two parties.
IF democrats of the Whitney stripe
were sincere as Teller and his fol-
lowers are, III the belief that the
money question IL the only one OF
vital interest to the country, the for
mer would promptly aud earnestly
support Mckinley, as the latter do
Bryan, without SO much haggling
and unreasonable conditions.
