JouN WANAMAKER, ex-Postmaster
Gen eral, in an address before the
Business Mems League, at Phila-
delphia, is reported 20 have said
that a new party in this country is
a necessity. This remark was
brought about by the failure of the
Mckinley administration to bring
the promised prosperity, and sug-
gests serious thoughts for reflection
on the part of Republicans. That
the Mckinley administration is a
failure, so far as its promises were
concerned, cannot be gainsayed,
that prosperity does not come is
matter of general knowledge, and
that it will not come is universal
belief 1t is foolish to claim that
the people can be taxed into pros
perity, as is claimed by the advo-
Gates of the Dingley bill. Then
what IS TO be expected? The Re
publican party must either bring
about prosperity or it is doomed to
overwhelming defeat. This is what
Mr.. Wanamaker knows. That it
will be defeated in the next two
National elections hardly admits of
a doubt. Then it must come up on
new lines, which is equivalent to
saying that new party is neces-
sity. Protection has been exploded
and what these new lines will be
cannot be predicted at this time
with any degree of certainty.
