The Sioux City Tribune refers to the
GRAPHIC as most influential Democratic
paper in South Dakota" This incidental
compliment is undoubtedly prompted
from the fact that the GRAPHIC's and
Tribune's opinions opinions Of Demo-
cratic men and measures closely agree.
1t is a fact. however. that there are no
lnconsiderably number of Democrats
with intense silver propensities who
opine that the GRApHIc's influence does
not amount to tinker's dam. Ii it
were possible and practical to run down
every Democrat in the community and
ask him just what the GRAPHIC should
say each recurring issue and to correctly
edltOriallY anticipate the doings of Dem
ocratic conventions as they occur from
time to time, considerable dissatisfaction
might possibly be avoided. And while
holding steadfast to the belief that the
principles underlying The foundation of
the Democratic party are all that is best
in government, yet the GRAPHIC cannot
cloak with God-like virtue and noble
patriotism everything done under a
Democratic name, and it feels that it has
Just as much right to say what position
the Democratic party shonld take upon
any issue as those who may differ with
it. If the party should declare that pro-
hibitl0n was principle handed down by
Jefferson and jackson, and whether or
not, right, anyway, the GRAPHIC would
feel at liberty TO enter a protest. The
GRAPHIC does not feel that it is under
any greater obligations to the Demo-
cratic party than the Democratic party
is under obligations to tho GRAPHIC. A
newspaper that drops to the mere mouth.
piece and organ of political party or
poses at the beck and call of politicians
or coterie Of individuals quickly loses
the respect of the only constituency Of
value to it: that which appreciates a
newspaper for its fairness, honesty and
independence.
