THE NATIONAL DEMOCRACY.

About everybody acknowledges that
the National Democracy is as dead as
red herring save w. D. Bynum and
General S. B. Buckner. The opinion
Of the former doesn't amount to any
thing: that of the latter will be gen.
orally treated with respect. General
Buckner recently addressed q letter on
the subject of the National Democracy
to a Kentucky gentleman. The gen
eral, having been vice-presidential can
didate of the party, no doubt regards
it as of more consequence than ne
otherwise would. He does not feel in
the least discouraged, but thinks the
party still has it's mission to perform.
He says, speaking of the late election
in his own state, that there is nothing
in the result to discourage the National
Democracy, but everything to incite
them to maintain their organization
until the sober second thought Of the
people shall force ambitious leaders to
return to sound principles of govern
ment
1t is to be. feared that the general
Old lady was who died in Springfield,
Mass, the other day, who every night
for seventy long years never failed to
place a candle in the window for her
sailor lover who went to sea, but never
came back. How can the general so
deceive himself? He should be able to
see what is so plain to all others-that
the National Democracy is no more
and that it cannot be resurrected. His
friend, Henry Watterson, sees this,
who, speaking of this same letter, says
that tested in 1896 in the nation, and
in 1897 in few Of the states, though
notably and conclusively in Kentucky,
the sound money organization, which
took the name of the National Democ-
racy, showed itself both an Illusion and
a snare. The instinct OF the voters
proved wiser than the judgment of
their leaders. IF the voters had fol-
lowed the leaders the first object of the
movement-the overthrow of the fusion
which menaced the country with fiat
money and national discredit- would
have been defeated. It's second object
was the creation Of a nucleus about
which Democrats might rally and re-
organize the party. In Kentucky less
than ten thousand earnest, enlightened,
devoted men accepted this opportunity
in an actual poll vote of S75,O0O and a
possible poll of $4,000. These faithful
men are not enough for seed-corn, and
they look in vain for re-enforcements
elsewhere.
General Buclzner but dreams The
thing for the National Democrats to
do is to come back into the old Democ-
racy where they will always ind a
welcome.

it isn't exactly the thing on which to
base appropriations.
MAKE THE DEBATES PUBLIC.

1t is said that ii is probabls t;se
Hawaiian annexation treaty will be
discussed publicly, and not 0ehind
closed doors. That woul6 De- the
proper way. The United States and
Hawaii, the American people anG the
people of Hawaii, alone are interested
in the annexation proposition There
should be nothing in the negotiation OF
that treaty that cannot be known and
if there is. then it can only make
against it.
This proposition to annex the Hawa :
ian Islands is very important one,
in fact, one of the most important that
has ever come before the senate. IS
the treaty is adopted it viii be the IN
auguration OF a policy radically differ
ent from that heretofore pursued. 1t
is true that this government has made
large acquisitions oe territory, bat they
have all been of contiguous territory
with the exception of Alaska, arg tnat
is on this continent. Il Hawaii is an
nexed, it will of necessity require some
new policies, and Of itsei1 it viii mean
the adoption of colonial policy 0y
this country. Considering all this ans
all that may result from annexation, It
is necessary that the American people
should be made fully aware OF every
thing that transpires in this connec-
ton; they should know every argument
and reason that is urged for or against
anrexa ton. for il is a question IN which
they are most deeply interested.
This being the case, the debates in
the senate on Hawaiian annexation
should be public. and if any senator
shall object TO sueh sublicity ne vii
thereby prejudice fhs SIDE he advocates
BY all means, let the debates on tbs
question of the annexation be public.

CURRENCY THE QUESTION OF
THE HOUR.

For several presidential campaigns
the great issue has been the tariff, and
on it men have been elected president.
It made Cleveland president; it made
Harrison president. and if it DID not
make Mckinley president it gave MIN
the presidential nomination, and he
was elected 1t is very doubtful II 1t
will again make any man preslden-
tial candidate, much less elect him;
the people are very largely tired OF
the question, and if there were a reve-
nue. law that was supplying enough
revenue to create q surplus, no matter
on what theory the law was based, It
is very doubtful if the people would
care to have any agitation of the tariff
question at all, but would be content
to rest awhile at least Congressman
Dingley has linked his name with the
latest tariff measure, a measure framed
on the same lines that the Mckinley
law was, but going to greater extremes,
yet it is not at all likely that he will
ever be seriously mentioned as a presl-
Dental candidate.
What will determine the selection of
the next presidential candidates? 1t
will almost certainly be the currency
question If at the approaching ses-
sion of congress. or even in the next,
any congressman. senator or represent
ative, shall be able to introduce and
have passed a currency reform bill,
not merely what may be termed a
tinkering bill, but a radical, one, and
the enactment Of such a bin into law
is followed by a period Of genuine and
increasing prosperity, it can hardly
fail to make him the presidential can
didate of his party.
Aspirants for presidential honors in
1900 should conjure with the currency
question and eschew the tariff alto
gether.

AN ECONOMICAL PROBLEM FOR
CONGRESS.

Congress viii have some problems to
meet without creating any new ones,
such as attempting to reform the cur
rency, taking hold of the Cuban cues
ton or the Hawaiian, though all these
will in all likelihood come up. The prob
lem that will force itself upon congress
is that old familiar one of revenue The
deficit since the beginning of the pres
ent fiscal year is, in round numbers,
about SIG, 100000 During the time since
July the expenditures have been STA
2S2, $50, against receipts of $127, 701, 16O
There is no anticipation that the de-
felt will be wiped out by the close of
the fiscal year.
The various departments are calling
for increased appropriations. 1t is by
no means certain that it would be wise
to grant all the increased appropria-
lions wanted, even were there a sur
plus instead of a deficit; but there is a
deficit. If congress looks at the matter
in the proper light, it Will do one of two
things: either enact legislation to pro-
vide revenue sufficient to meet all ex-
penditures: or else it will reduce APP
preparations of all kinds until present
receipts viii be sufficient As q bust
ness proposition this is straight and
plain, but when it comes to making ap-
preparations for various purposes con-
gress never proceeds on business prin-
ciples; it makes appropriations so long
as there seems to be any excuse for the
same and then trusts TO IlIok for
enough revenue TO come in to meet
them. Optimism is substituted for
definite knowledge, and blind trust
put in the future that revenue laws
viii yet produce enough for all pur-
poses. There is no likelihood that con
gress at this session will do any diff
ferently in this matter from what con-
crosses have done in like matters in
the past. Hope is a splendid thing, but

That President Mckinley should have
been compelled to quit the bedside of
his dying mother to hurry back to
Washington to attend to his official
duties seems hard and sad, yet there
was no alternative left him. When he
quilted his mothers bedside she was
already unconscious and knew not her
distinguished son. Could she have
spoken, doubtless she would have told

him to so back to Washington where
duty called him, as she had told him to
go forth to battle when duty called him.
She had seen her son elevated to the
presidential chair, and become the sue
csssor Of Washington. Jefferson and
Lincoln; and that is the highest pos
sible ambition an American woman can
have for her son, and very few can
nave it gratifed, while fewer still live
to see it realized Mother Mckinley
has seen her son honored by the whole
people, and has had her fondest hopes
realized. What more could a mother
ask?

THE tariff bill is not yielding SO
much revenue as was anticipated, but
this is probably due to the fact that

no. yet been worked off. Next year
should give a much better showing.
In the meantime, if any radical defects
in the Dingley schedules come to
light. the congress that framed them
