We can never amaigama'e and succeed
IN becoming victorious under the name Of
the Peoples party or the Democratic
party. and II Is useless TO attempt 1t. but
we can succeed under new name.-Elians-
burg Dawn.
The reform party by any other name
would be as fragrant. and might take
more tricks. That is the sentiment 50
frankly uttered by our Eiiensburg con-
temporary. 1t urges q submergence OF
the old party name. evidently on th.
theory that the public viii not know IT
IL the same old crowd 1t il a bid fer
public confidence under false pretenses.
The ass might have succeeded In his
deceptive career as a roaring lion but
for his ears and his voice. What does
the Dawn's new reform party propose
To do with voice and ears?
For some inscrutable reason the Dem-
ocratic party in the state has ascer-
tanned that 1t is still alive, and the chef
nsourners at the great wake Of 1896 have
determined upon a formal resurrection
u, 1890. They are now busy inviting the
Popuiists and Silver Republicans 10 act
as honorary guests at the ceremonies
1t Is perfectly clear. In, brief, that the
Democracy has for the last time en-
gagged in the improbable business of
paekhorse to carry the Popultsts into
office. and hereafter they propose also
10 ride II being agreed on all sides
that there is to be a new deal, the main
question now among the professional
reformers IL to determine just who Is
to be dealer. II there Is to be fusion
again. II will be wholly on Democrats,
conditions IL not under the Democratic
flag. Ii there Is no fusion. the Democ-
racy will be the principal competitor OF
Republicans.
An Instructive Illustration OF the new
spirit controlling the reformers is Gov.
Rogers open bid for denomination by
the forces opposing the Republican
party" The o-popocracy has
no unifying tie except opposition to the
Republican party. It's whole policy is
negation and denial. The governors
characterization Is both name and plat
form. Bin Dunphy Is holder and wants
the Democratic nomination. Bill Is an
ex-railroad conductor. and his sole
creed is Punch here" which. being in
terpreted. means tn hit a Republican
head wherever IL hobs up. Col Lewis is
candidate for governor, and denies IL,
and a candidate for congress, and de-
MES II. The colonel has been leading
double political life so long that 1t is no
trouble at all for him to be a candidate
for two Offices at the same time. or a
candidate for none He Is the only ex-
congressman in Washington whose
Popullsm is as sound as hts Democracy
and whose Democracy is as sound as
his Populism.
So we are guaranteed an interesting
time in Washington next year.
