DISCIPLINE is as necessary for the
success of a political party as it Is Tor
that of ii militant army, and the party
in which it is not rigidly enforced Is
doomed to defeat, sooner or later. The
candidates in Virginia at the recent
election who ran as independents. and
against the rules and regulations of the
party's highest authority-its State
committee-did their party infinitely
more harm than the republicans, took
themselves out OF the party, and cannot
be admitted into it again except on pro-
baton, as to do otherwise would be to
put premium on lack of discipline and
INSTRUMENTATION. Every man in Vir.
ginia has the right to vote as he may
choose and to run for Office, but no
right-lhinking man will run or vote
against regularly nominated demo
cratic candi late, and still profess to
be, and call himself, democrat; the
republican party is the right place for
all such men.

A PROPOSITION having been made te

a PROPOSITION having been made TO
impose an export duty on the products
of this country, so as to reduce the hlgn
tariff rates, one OF the protection jour
nails has been reminded thereby of the
existence of the Constitution, and
remarks that by the provisions thereof
export duties are prohibited. Ii is well
TO know that there is such a thing as
the Constitution, though that knowl'
edge be only availed of as means to
conduce to the advancement of selfish
ends. Up to 1861 D. Constitution was
the supreme and Efficient law OF the
land; but it's effectiveness, except for
corrupt practices, was then lost and
will never be regsined. To take pri-
yate property without compensation.
to deny that government depends upon
the consent of the governed, to make
two States out of one for political pur-
poses, to impose taxes solely for pro-
lection. and to do many other things,
either expressly or implicitly prohibited
by the Constitution, AID then to object
to an export tax, looks very much like
straining at a graf and swallowing a
camel.

The SCARCITY OF MONEY. - Mr..
Henry Clews, the well.known authori.
ty on Wall street, said yesterday, in
addressing roomful OF spectators, in
his Office in New York, and referring
to the recent high rates for money on
called loans, that if he were director
of bank or of a trust company, ne
would vote not to raise the rate above
six per cent. He also said that the re-
cent high money rate had caused the
adherents of William J. Bryan to take
courage in the false superstition that
Bryan was right IN declaring that there
was not money enough to go around.
Bryan's adherents, he pointed out,
were claiming that recent conditions in
Wall street justified the silver leaders,
position, and that the continued high
money rate was being used as an argu-
ment against President McKinley's
we'll known sound money views. He
regarded the action of the banks and
trust companies as injurious to great
financial interests as giving the Bryan
ties reason to believe that there was a
real scarcity of money in the country
and that this scarcity of money was the
cause of the present rather depressed
condition of affairs in the financial GEN.
ter of the country.
