rhe Democratic Party.

The Democratic Party
The declared policy Of some of the
Bryan Democratic clubs in the Eastern
States to prevent the return to the par
ty fold of all Democrats who voted at
the late presidential election for Nc
Kinley or Palmer has caused a great
deal Of comment ON the part OF the
press. As the Democratic papers which
opposed Bryan are included in the proc
lamations Of outlawry, they r natural
ly taking a lively interest in the sub
ject. The Macon (Ga.) Telegraph says
that the only asset left of the ancient
party is its name, and that unless some
body codities its principles and puts
them upon a sound basis very soon the
organization will break up and forever
disappear.
Another Democratic journal, the Sun
of New York, has declared that even
the name Is worthless unless there is u
reorganization. This journal argues
that the party leaders in the Senate
having passed n protective act, and hav-
ing renowned the time-honored Demo-
cratic principle that a protective tariff
is unconstitutional, the only principle
left, besides the free coinage Of silver
ut 1G to I, Is the income tax. AS that
has been declared unconstitutional by
the United States Supreme Court, it
can scarcely be called left-unless ''left''
is used in the slangy sense. Moreover,
the late election shows that q very large
body Of the party will not support free
coinage Mt 16 to 1. Hence that is not
an available principle.
1t Is perhaps a waste Of time to dis
cuss this matter. The potent fact in the
Population of the Democracy is that
1t has lost n large number of voters who
Will never return to it until it is reor-
ganized. The silver Republicans are
bound to return to their party in time,
for the reason, principally, that there
Is no other place for them to so. Thus,
with the dissatisfied Democrats added,
the Republican party will be greatly
strengthened. So it would seem that
the outlawry talk Of the Bryanites is
suicidal. The middle of the road Popu-
lists will not join them, the gold Demo
Gratis have left them and cannot get
back, the tariff issue has been sold out
and is dead, the income tax cannot be
revived, and 1t is useless to make a
fight on free riots and reputation.
Talk about what is to become of the
Democratic party under the circum-
stances seems idle. That party appears
to be dead, anyhow. Outlawing n few
members of 1t more or less can make
little difference to anybody.
