England is being invaded by the

paign. and this country is just now en-
joying a number of new and notable
illustrations of the increasing power Of
America to cause such an upheaVal
among the ancient trade traditions of
Great Britain as the average English
man has never dreamed possible. From
ignoring the United States in the COM
mercial and financial field the united
kingdom has unhappily come to realize,
in some respects. the steadily inCreas-
ing successes of American competitors,
who at nearly every turn are showing
what down n-tO-date methods and west

pitted against the antiquated fashions
So long prevailing here. 1t is estimated
that 100000 900 in good English gold
goes annually to America, to the loss
of Great Britain. SO severe have been

A rule of both parties could limit the
OF state in congress and to an equal
number of alternates. That would halve
the official attendants. 1t would double
the Importance of delegates. 1t would
perfect every conventions resemblance
to congress. 1t would raise the stand
ard of selection. 1t could be accom-
panied by a encouragement of the at
tendance of gangs of cranks, shouters
and corruptionists. That would greatly
reduce expense and scandal The con-
ventions could be restored to a repre-
sentative and respectable character.
The present vulgar and wasting strife
between parties to see which can have
the biggest, brashest, loudest and mos.
senseless body would cease. Not a rea-
son of sanity, dignity, efficiency or or
der exists for the present rivalry for
mere bulk and roar.
Now, we should like to have the
state members of both national COM
mittees reach a decision to reduce con-
ventions to orderly size. to have them

Grafton and for a reasonable public at

per says:
why have the building so large?
Why have the conventions so large2
The bigness of the throngs is hostile to
elaboration. The delegates number
twice the representation of each state
and territory in congress. The alter
mates are as many more. The crowds
accompanying them treble the number.
They put up a great burden on the ex-
chequer of each party. They make the
surroundings those of clamor. They
tend to sensation, unwisdom and tu-
mutt, and not 10 judgment or honesty.
They are the terror of statesmen. the
burden of managers, the hotbed of
cranks. the harvest of demagogues and
the opportunity of corruptionists. The
idea that only by bigness and enthusi-
assn can representative results be as
sured is error.
