HE democratic situation IS a singular
one. It is wholly without a candidate
for the nomination for the presidency of
the United States. There is no denying
the fact that the outlook for electing q
democrat Is hopeless, Men have lost
their reason" because of few years OF
business adversely. The party in power
is held responsible for business disasters
which took place during its adm,nlstra-
ton of public affairs 1t does not matter
what the cause may be, the American
people are taught to look to the political
situation for an amelioration Of distresse d
business conditions.
This is result OF an acceptance of the
principle of protection. The government
is every thing; the people nothing. 1t
must not only assume the functions OF a
bank. but it must manage all our CON-
mercial affairs, The popullsts have car
RED the protection idea a lttle farther
than have the protectionists themselves
in their demand that the government
make 80 cents worth of silver eqrsi to
one dollars worth tits simply insisting
that the government shall increase the
profits of mine owners.
Public opinion on business matters
has been debauched by high tariff argu
ments sustained by hard times. We have
become dependents upon government
action, practically horde of pensioners
looking TO government bounty for sup
port. The democratic party which sought
| TO place industry on a substantial basis
is crucifed and given TO understand that
success comes to those only who are IN
tent upon personal gain.

FROM present appearances Mckinley

FROM present appearances Mckinley
will receive the republican nomination at
st. Louis. He represents the idea of ex-
cessively high tariff which at present is
very popular as there is notion it has
some inherent power of restoring good
times. One of the evils of popular govern
ment is this cure craze which seizes the
people periodically. The populists firmly
believe that the RECOMMENDATION of silver
is the nostrum for the body polite. The
protectionist thinks his label is the only
thing which marks the genuine stuff and
Mckinley is selected as the physician to
administer the dose,

MANY Of the republican papers of the
state are urging the ACCESSIBILITY of IN
structing the delegates to be sent TO the
national republican convention. H.
struction Is more or less a reflection upon
the honesty of delegates who should be
men of such character that they would
faithfully represent the people for whom
they act. But the fact that convention
is held is presumption that delegates
have certain discretion. Otherwise per-
sonal attendance would not be deemed
essential. Delegates to former national
republican conventions have been praised
SO highly for having jumped into the
loaded wagon with such alacrlty, regard
less Of their preferences for candidates,
that instructions or some form OF re-
straint NAV be necessary.

decision recently rendered by the
Indiana supreme court would indicate
that the Wisconsin legislature cannot
constitutlonally redistrlct the state at
the extra session Of the Legislature to be
held next week. The purpose behind
the extra session is so gross and partisan
that it needs not d decision OF the SUI
preme court to stamp 1t with inlquIty.
It would seem that every principle OF
justice woula demand that the apportion-
ment. If 1t be made, should be set aside.
But this Will make no difference as to the
result of the election this fall. From
present appearances the republicans
might put up yellow dog against an
angel and the dog Will WIN. 1t is a
mighty good time for mean man to get
office if ne be a republican.

IT looks as if the senatorial contest IN
Kentucky would result in bloodshed.
The KentuckIans certainly will not toler-
ate the presence of the militia at the capt.
tol. That would be reflection for which
nothing but blood could atone Indeed
it is doubtful whether the white republi-
cans would approve of the presence of
troops.
The republicans who have control of
the house, wish to unseat two democratic
members whose seats are contested. The
democrats, who have a majority of the
senate, say this action Of the republicans
will be followed by the unseating of a
corresponding number of republicans in
the senate. These proceedings cannot
be conducted peaceably and will I'M
doubtedly result in bloodshed. Ken
tuckians do more than buster. To shoot
under proper proyocation is part of
their code of ethics, and anything which
touches their honor is deemed abundant
proyocation.
In contested election case there is no
longer any intention to be just or to de-
eide upen the merits of the case. Mem
bers vote with their party whether right
or wrong. This has been the rule since
1876 and is proving costly legacy to the
country. Any wrongful act condoned
permanently taints the life blood of that
which which is affected.

The bids for the government bonds
show clearly that there is no scarcity.of
money IN the country anu is practical
REPUTATION of the favorite argument of
the silver men that to scarcity of money
is due the business depression, When
S60o,000,000 dollars IN 5old are offered
for bonds at premium which reduces
the interest to 81 per cent. per anuum. il
is easy to perceive that money Is plentI-
full and will readily come into circulation
when promised a safe investment.
All that is needed Is confidence, bnt
this we cannot have while legislation is
threatened which will change the nature
of contracts. The United States senate
is q menace TO returning confidence and
stands III the way Of prosperity. The

The wild cat industry is being worked
quite well in this state. This is thorough
ly IN accordance with prevailing notions.
The nation or state owes the people a
living and the wildcat, the fox and the
wolf are simply means whereby the state
treasury may be reached. McKinleyism,
whichis now so popular, provides means
of gaming access more directly, to the
peoples pockets. The tendency of the
times has made the people bugands. The
populists want TO enrich the silver men
by paying them two times what their
product Is worth The good-for- naught
is TO borrow money from the government
without giving security and without pay
ing interest. The manufacturer Is to have
the people wholly at his mercy. This is
the doctrine of the times.
