A Pennsylvania Get-Together Plan.

Pennsylvania Democrats are con-
fronted with the same problem Of get
ting together" uniting their severed
forces. that cOnfrontS the Democrats OF
every state. Among the several plans
submitted is one by Mr.. Meek, the edi
tor of the Bellfonte Waterman, himself
one of the leaders of the party in the
central portion of the state. as being
broad enough and Democratic enough
for all Democrats to stand on" The
main difficulty everywhere encountered
is the reference that shall be made in
state platforms this year to the nation
al platform of 1896; whether it shall be
sClemnly reaffirmed in toto, whether it
shall be ignored in toto, or whether 1t
shall be treated as a declaration Of pol
iCies fitted to the emergencies of that
campaign. but subject. as Democratic
national platforms in the past have al
ways been, to the changes in conditions
that may have interviewed.
Mr.. Meek meets the problem thus
presented in the following four PROPOSE
tons:
First-The recognition of the right OF the
national convention to declare the prin-
ciples and define the policies of the party
on all questions over which the general
government has control. and the acknowl-
edgment of the binding force of these dec
laratiOns upon state and local organiza-
tons until reafIlrmed or modified BY the
authority.
Second-That the campaign for the state
ticket be made on state issues exclusively.
Third-That all questions or issues that
decided by the votes OF representatives in
congress be submitted by resolutions of
the state convention to the several con-
gressional districts Of the state for such
action the delegates confereeS of the
respective districts may take.
Fourth-That the candidates for congress
men-at-large. whose names will be upon
the state ticket, be pledged to vote on all
political questions the Democratic con-
gressional caucus may determine.
The propositions following the first
are Identical with those which The
G. 10 b e has heretofore suggested, eX-
cept the fourth, which seems to be sur
plusage. The first is the important
one. II is worth considering by Dem
ocrats who really care to bring about
conditions that will enable a reuniting
of our divided forces 1t has, at least,
the merit of leaving national questions
to the national tribunal and limiting
| state conventions to their legitimate
field

sureness of air indicating familiarity

the Democratic party? They would
go solid against Him" Again 1t is
evident that Mr.. Moody knows some
thing of that party also; at least of
its repugnance to kingly rule. But
you say the Prohibition party would
want Him. l guess not" Why, he
did not say. but we assume he had that
wedding feast in Canae in mind. I'm

questioner. Even the churches
wouldn't want Him to come some of
them" Here we pause. Mr.. Moody
reaches ground that is unfamiliar to
us. We assume that he is qua!itil d to
speak of it. however.

Drumming for Foreign Trade.

The opening of the warerooms of the
National Association of American Man
ufacturers in Caracas, which Is to take
place on the 26th of this month, marks
both a departure from the Indifference
to foreign trade that has characterized
our manufacturers, as body, since the
war, and also the new methods that the
changed conditions require. The as
ISOLATION has a concession from Vene-
zuela, under which it has secured a
large building in Caracas in which
American goods can be displayed. the
building being virtually a bonded ware
house to which goods ale admitted duty
free. The association undertakes
merely to provide a place for exhibit
ton. expecting that the makers will
have their representatives there to give
all the information needed. and to So
licit and make sales. The Venezuelan
Wholesale merchants and jobbers will
be drummed to visit the exhibition, in
spect the goods. compare prices, and
make purchases.
In contrast with this modern method
IS that. now long extinct of the times
before the war, when American clippers
carried the flag all around the world.
Merchants and manufacturers combin-
ed to make a cargo, or the larger
houses supplied their own vessels with
cargoes. and sent with them their rep
resentatiVe, then termed the super
cargo who was the business man Of
the ship. His orders went as to every
thing except the details Of sailing; they
were the domain Of the master. Under
the supercargo's direction the ship went
to those countries where the goods
were supposed to be in demand; sold
them or exchanged them; bought or
traded for the products Of the coun-
tries for a return freight, and came
home. One Of the earliest Of these ven
lures was to China for tea. Out of pre-
caution a quantity of gold coin was
taken along sufficient to buy the return
cargo. But the gold was useless. The
merchants Of the ports touched took
the goods and paid In teas. and the YES
sci came home loaded with tea paid for
in goods. with the gold unused. That
day has passed. however. and it's meth
DDS with it. and now the commercial
man and his sample cases must take
the fOreign roads

Gen. Montgomery Moore. who COM

sion that is a survival of days that

longer exist in their former strength.
In Boston recently he spoke of the re-
lations between Great Britain and the
United States, made a matter of pc
culiar interest by the complications
that may possibly arise out of the
Cuban matter. and said that the pub

the manner in which they present the

of this century. are responsible for the
