When Philip of Macedon approached by
night with his troops to scale the walls Of
Byzantium, the moon, then new or in
crescent, shone out and discovered his de-
sign to the besieged. who repulsed him.
The crescent was after that adopted as the
favorite badge of the city. When the
Turks took Byzantium, they found the
crescent in every public place, and, believ-
sng 1t TO possess some magical power,
adopted II themselves. Nicholas.

they regard their own verdict on ma

Evc,y intelligent and comprehensive OBJ
server of public events knows that he Is
stronger with the party to-day than he
was year ago; that he has lost none of
the marvellous personal influence which
he eyerted during the campaign of 1896:
that the principles for which he stands
are as ardently espoused by the Demo
cratic masses as they were when Bryan
proclaimed them with the fire of his en-
thusiasm and the witchery of his elo-
quence. No one need be deceived by the
circumstances of the recent campaign
in New York city. The fact that Tam
many ignored the Chicago platform is Of
no significance. We may admit that.
for the immediate purposes of that par
ticular struggle. and in order to recover
control of municipal affairs-to rescue
Greater New York, in fact, from the dis
pensation of an impudent and hypocritl-
cal tyrrany-the Democratic masses con-
sented to the Croker Whitney pro-
gramme. But that proves nothing. In
deed, we may say that. even if it involv-
ed the permanent rejection of Mr.. Bryan
and the Chicago declaration by the New
York organiza tion-whcih it does not
the fact would be of minor consequence.
The Democrats of the nation are not I'M
der New York control. The millions
who voted for Mr. Bryan in 1896 do not
look in that direction for guidance and
leadership. They would not be moved
one hairs breath from their purpose if
New York were to threaten them with
absolute secession. They lost New York
in 1896 They can afford to lose it in
1900. They have no calculations based
upon New York as an indispensable fac
tor in their scheme. They know that
Mr.. Bryan and the Chicago platform
brought out more votes, year before last,
than any Democratic candidate ever re-
ceived before-nearly a million more
than Mr.. Cleveland had in 1S92-and
they are content with that record and
the brilliant prospect it opens to them
in the future.
Let no one imagine that Mr.. Bryan is
n dead issue. If a Democratic cOnven-
tion were to assemble to-day, he would
he without serious competitor. Unless
all political conditions be revoluti0ni7ed
meanwhile. he will be even stronger two
years hence.
