THE OTEy PLAN.

Congressman Otey's suggestion that a
national convention be held this year
TO formulate a Democratic policy and
adopt measures looking to the organiza-
ton of our party for the congressional
election Of 1898. and the presidential
election of 1860. does not strike us favor
ably
We Democrats are getting along very
well indeed pow, and therefore would
better let we'll enough alone. The coun-
try wants peace and rest. and it might
become very impatient with us if we
departed from party precedent. as Mr.
Otey proposes that we should do.
We fear that such a convention as
Mr.. Otey proposes would do far more
harm than good. especially as there are
many Democrats who could not give it
their hearty approval. And then if the
Republicans financial policies failed TO
give the people the promised relief. they
would be quick to charge that it was
because we Democrats had become dis
turbers of the public peace.
IL we could assemble all the wise men
of the Democratic party In convention
this year, it would be unlikely that they
Gould frame a platform suitable for 1900.
We can't look ahead so far.
1t seems to us that all we can do now
is 10 strengthen our city, county, and
State organizations wherever possible,
and await the action of the new Presi-
dent and new Congress. Unless all
signs fail. the Republicans will use their
power without stint to enrich the pro-
tected manufacturers and the Wall
street spectators. and, If so, hundreds
OF Democrats who co-operated with
them last year will be glad enough to
come back TO us soon. SO we say give
the Republicans all the rope they want.
Let them alone for the present; but,
meanwhile. we should be quietly at work
'.mending our fences in each city, coun-
~. and State of the Union.

THE MONETARY CONFERENCE.

The much-talked-of monetary confer
ence will meet in indianapolis to-day, and
its proceedings will be watched with great
interest The conference will be made
ND Of leading bankers and financiers, and
of delegates from the more prominent
boards Of trade and chambers of COM
merce throughout the country, and il is
fair 10 assume that IL will be more tho
roughly representative of our business
and financial interests than any similar
body that ever assembled. It's object, as
we understand 1t. is TO discuss the de-
fects in our present currency and bank
ing system, and aid. as far as possible,
I'm bringing about the necessary reform
in that system. II Is not expected that
the conference will formulate or recon-
mend any definite plan of reform; but.
rather, that a thorough ventilation of the
subject in all its phases by the members
will evolve Suggestions that may be
utilized by Congress in dealing with the
currency problem.
And surely such a body ought to be
able TO make most practical and useful
suggestions 10 Congress. Surely, Also
what with the conference suggestions
and such definite plans as may be laid
before the commission Congress Is to
create for the consideration OF plans
there ought 10 be no very great difficulty
f. ia giving us sound financial legislation
There are already before the country
three notable schemes or plans of finan-
cial reform. These are the Baltimore plan,
The Eckels plan, and the Carlisle plan.
No doubt ali three will be exhaustiyely
discussed In the indianapolis conference
ana their respective merits and defclen-
cies clearly set forth. No doubt, also. the
old State-bank system will come in for a
large share Of the body's attention. and
as TO some OF It's features. for no feeble
championship AS we happen 10 know,
there are delegates TO the conference capa-
bic of giving the system standing in the

THE scHooLMAsTER's CRITICS.

DIR Caskie Harrison, formerly OF ms
CITY. but who now conducts in Brooklyn
a large classical school for boys. made
the principal address at the recent meet
ing of the Schoolmastcrs' Association a
New York and vicinity His subject Vas
"Some of Our Present Discontents, and
his remarks were devoted in great moa-
ture TO answering the critics OF the
northumberland as Parents. Pupils
Patrons of the Schools. and Professors In
Colleges" TO the criticism Of one college
professor. that Of Professor Adams or
Harvard, Dr. Harrison paid particular at
tention. and it must be admitted that
ne gave the Professor Rowland for MS
Oliver. Professor Adams in recent adj
dress. deplored the lack Of knowledge OF
English composition on the part OF APP
plcants for admission to that institution
who had been prepared at elementary
schools. Further. he gave as the main
essentials to perfect composition, skill
and facility in penmanship, thorough
knowledge Of syntaX and etymology good
phraseology, and conciseness.
DIR. Harrison dismissed the question OF
handwriting as one Of but little moment
seeing. as he remarked that our greatest
writers and best literati write VIGOROUSLY
bad hands. He implied, rather than as
serted. that. in the matter complained Of
bv Professor Adams, the schoolmaster
could. even under the best conditions. lay
the groundwork only for development;
for said he, "conciseness in composition
can come only with experience and abli'
~ TO group facts, to say nothing of con-
slant practical use of the language in
conformity with the actual requirements
of good composition" Then. taking up
"syntax and phraseology" DR.. Harrison
asked the question. "Can a boy be expect
ed TO reach perfection in those two intri-
cate subjects. when men like Professor
Adams himself make such a poor show
ing?": and. as a concluding comment,
added that the Professors address would
have done credit to a lawyer for compli-
cation of diction, repetition, and circum-
locuton.
we do not understand DR.. Harrison as
rejecting in his comparison upon the legal
fraternity He recognizes complication
Of diction. repetition. and circumlocution
as constituting part Of their art. ."
But his criticism of Professor Adams's
address applies TO the compost
lions of many highly-educated men, who
have not had experience in writing for
the public eye. What DR.. Harrison says
ohout "conciseness in composition" IS
borne out by the experience Of every old
editor and reporter.

The Republican members of the Coun-

what action shall be taken. The pro-
ceedings of that caucus will undoubt-
