Suggesting BuncO Again.

The editor of the indianapolis Sentinel,
| the leading democratic newspaper OF IN
diana, in an interview on the political situa-
l ton says:
The financial declaration of 1896 will be
reiterated but il will not and should not
| form the dominant issue. If it does we can
not win. l say that bimetallist. L am
| a silver man, but believe we can do moth
| ing with the currency question for some
time to come. The republicans will control
| the Senate practically for the next six
| years. so there is no hope of any silver leg
slation in that time. So long as these con-
dtions prevail. therefore, l don't see any
thing to be gained by making a leading is
sue of the silver question.
with these-antf-trust, anti-militarism
and expansion and tariff reform-as the
leading issues We can go into the campaign
next year with bright hopes. 1 believe the
prospects for democratic success were never
brighter. With such planks as these We
will have a platform that appeals to the
people at large
Appropriately enough, this comes from a
man who assisted in the nomination of Mr..
Cleveland in 1892, and in recognition of his
services in that campaign was sent as con-
sui general to Paris. Then, as now, he was
a silver man and knew that Mr.. Cleveland
was uncompromisingly opposed to silver;
but then, as now, his only thought was OF
winning and he was willing to keep any
thing in the background or put anything in
the foreground in an effort to win. Thus
was Mr. Cleveland, a sound money man,
elected President by a free silver party on
the tariff question Then fate forced silver
to the 'front.' and divorcing the President
from his party, created the conditions which
led to the democratic smash-up in 1896.
This Indiana editor would repeat this
game next year. His only thought is to
win at the polls. He as much as says to
his political associates: I'VE are still for
silver, as much so now as formerly But
don't insist upon making that 1act LOO
prominent. 1t will injure US before the peo-
pie What we want is to return to power
and if we manage matters shreWdly we
may promise ourselves success. So let sing
small about silver this time, and swell out
in full chorus about such issues as are OF
later interest and moment. The main thing
is to win
AS The Star stated last week, the last
Cleveland campaign and its results, which
were quite as unfortunate for the country
as for the democratic party, are too fresh
in memory to make it possible for another
game of bunco at this time to be success
fully played The candidate must truly rep
resent his party and both parties must de-
| fine their politics clearly and sincerely. No
sailing under false colors No shipping with
a skipper likely or liable to change his flag
as soon as he clears port and takes COM
plete command. The man whose only desire
is to win, and whose suggestions are in the
line of suppressions and evasions. will hard
Iy be delegated TO pick candidate or write
a platform for next year.

Inc French Situation

The bowls Of derision raised by the anti

Senator White and Expansion.

A dispatch from California signed by
Senators Perkins and White declares the
readiness of the southern part of that state
to furnish a well-organiZed and thoroughly
disciplined regiment of infantry to proceed
at once to the Philippines. Stephen M.
White, one of the signers to the telegram,
is democrat and during his service as
United States senator was pretty thorough
ly partisan. He is the leading lawyer and
one of the most prominent citizens of
southern California. Evidently he is not In
favor OF fighting the administration on this
particular issue.
