intelligent and discriminating in
his choice of literature, turns up

fully formulated as a bet for deci.
sion.
"To THE Editor OF The Sun
Sir: will you kindly give your
dccisio as to the following argu'
ment. A claims that The Sun is a
Democratic newspaper. B claims
that it is Republican. Who wins!
"NEw YORK, Oct.13.
A CONSTANT READER.
B wins, Of course. ...
The Democratic party of 1897 is
the Democ ratio party of Chicago
and of the Bryan campaign. 1t is
the only potent aud efficient organ
ization now wearing the name of
Democracy. It represents those
principles, those tendencies, and
those purposes in contemporaneous
American politics which The Sun
abhors. We have accordingly re-
pudiated its platform and opposed
its candidates; aud we are split
ting no hairs over. the venerated
name itself.
There is no room for warm
blood and no field for serious effort
in the very small company of
former Democrats who, in co.
operation with larger number of
Mugwumps and idolaters, are
maintaining the pretence of Demo-
cracy as the best flag under which
to attack the Democracy Of the
citadel. This is the party of in.
dividual pride and personal COM
fort, rather than of definite purpose
or truly conservative usefulness.
It counts for precious little in the
situation, and that little counts for
bad, because it is a disorganizing
influence wherever it shows itself,
and discouraging, depressing sort
of a concern, anyway. However,
most of the favorlte notions and
declared principles of the so-called
National Democrats are as remote
from any practical relation, to the
duties and issues now appealing to
American patriotism as are the
doctrines of esoteric theosophy.
An ove1ruling Providence has
decreed that the Republican party,
in tie closing years of the nine.
tenth century, should stand for
the gold standard, the one.hun'
dred-cent dollar, the honest re.
demption of public and private
obligations, the preservation of
existing institutions against the
assaults of the radicals and the au.
nihilators. the material prosperity
Of all our industrial interests, the
American idea in our foreign at.
fairs, and that national policy of
expansion which is to make the
second hundred years of the exist
ence of this Government as won
derful and inspiring a story as has
been the first. For all this the
Republican party stands, up to
date, like rock; and for all this,
if the Republican party is not re-
sponsible; no party is responsible.
While it so stands, and while its
responsibility IS such, The Sun is
with it, heart and soul, in national,
State, and municipal politics. !
That is why B wins. /

KILLED CROSSING THE TRACK.
Dragon Ladacho Was Run Down by a
Passenger Train.

a coal picker, Dragon LodOcha, aged
% years, was struck and instantly
killed yesterday afternoon by the Jer-
sey Central passenger train leaving this
city at 3.O5 o'clock The point of the
fatality was south of the Elm street
bridge and under the shadow of the
Bellevue COlliery Culm dump where
LOdOCha and a number of companions
had been gathering Goals.
So far as could be learned from the
broken speech of LodoCha's friends
who witnessed the accident the young
man was carrying a bag Of coal on his
back from the dump to a pile of coal
on the other side of the tracks. He
seemed wholly oblivious of the appro-
aching train and stepped upon the
track a few feet ahead of the engine
lie was struck and hurled against the
dump the bag of coal flying all around.
LOdOCha's companions rushed to his
side but he was quite dead His skull
was crushed.
Coroner :. L. Longsuect was sum-
moned and after viewing the remains
decided that an inquest wan not
necessary. The dead man boarded on
South Washington avenue to which
house the remains We're removed.

The opening of Wyoming avenue
which will entail an expense of nearly
100000 to the city was given decid-
ed boost in select council last night.
Through the engineering of Mr. Roche
and by means of a compromise with
those opposed to hurrying the project
through the ordinance passed two
readings and was referred to COM
mittee.
Following is a communication re-
ceived from the city engineer i'm refer
ence to the expense involved i'm the
proposed opening of Wyoming avnuc:

Inc OF -dtd inn Iruvcmcnt asking fer an
option ON their property, ON Aug. H.,
again on Nov. . ana again on Nov. 22 Of
this year, and received replies from sC,-
ontCcn OF them. There are three more
property owners to hear from, viz: W.
Gibson jones. James Kcarncy ANA the
Delaware and Hudson company.
Tho total amount asked by those who
have replied is S57776.jo. Enclosed you
will find copy Of the options received.
The $57776.50 mentioned by the city
engineer does not nearly represent
what the actual cost would he. The
Delaware and Hudson company would
not only have to surrender some of its
land, but it would bc put to great ex-
pense in moving its tracks. This, to-
gether with the probable claims Of w.
Gibson Jones and James Kearney,
would likely make the total cost So
900 or more.
