Politics as to moral ideas can progress
as individuals As a rule parties are
managed by few narrow-mindei indi-
viduals, who in taeir guidance see moth
ing to be accomplished but selfish ends,
and in their contracted views often hurt
the purpose they 50 zealously strive to
attain. Such has been the condition of
the Democratic party in this State for
the past quarter of a century. Apart
from dogmatic desire to favor a few
sell worn policies, the brains Of the
party could not see a broad principle.
and comprehend the idea that in a pro-
gressive country like ours party princi-
pies must change to meet the advancing
demands Of the times. 1t has come to
see it, however, at last and it is to be
congratulated on the wisdom Of the step.
The severe drubbing it has received in
recent years by a class who have al
vaneed in thought, and evinced de-
termination to act as we'll, has served as
lesson to broaden the scope Of its pur-
poses.
Two years ago the brave in the party
who had the temerity to suggest the
idea that a nomination be left unmade
that worthy Republican might be
ell, cted, would have been booted and
driven out of the party camp To-day
we have the spectacle of such being
done. The Democratic Convention Of
Baltimore city held on Monday lust,

visable to nominate a candidate for

Democratic orators are not discussing
the Dingley tariff law this fall. They
claimed that it would result disasterously
to our foreign commerce, would be a
failure as revenue producer, and that
labor would not be benefited by it. Yet
exports have steadily increased, the Gus.

at any time under fhe Wilson tariff, and

work car get it at advanced wages.

it was that they were not bothering the

For the republican party to desert
this gallant leader now is as though an
army should desert their general upon
the field of battle.
James G. Blaine is now, and has
been for years, the bearer of the sacred
standard OF the republican party. I call
it sacred because no human being can
stand beneath its folds without becom-
ing and without remaining free.
Gentlemen of the convention, in the
name OF the great republic, the only re-
public that ever existed upon this earth;
in the name OF all her defenders and OF
all her supporters; in the name OF
all her soldiers living; in the name OF all
her soldiers dead upon the field of bat
tie; and in the name OF those who per-
islled in the skeleton clutch of famine at

the prince. Orders will at once be
given to the earl marshal and the Of
fcers OF the college of arms to proclaim
him. The first proclamation will be
made in the courtyard OF St. James
palace, where the guard is changed.
Garter king, the chief officer OF the
college, will make the proclamation in
solemn form, with the earl marshal, the
kings, the heralds and the pursuivants
in iull uniform and mounted hard by.
At this proclamation the monarch is
present, sitting at the window, where
all his predecessors have sat-
That is the chiefest OF the proclama-
tons, but the news has to be carried far
and wide to the distant city, the rank of
the proclaiming officer descending as
the business proceeds The second
pronouncement is made at Charing
Cross and the third at the corner of
Chancery lane.
At this proclamation there will be
modification OF the ancient form, ow-
ing to the disappearance OF Temple
Bar. Within the city of London the
lord mayor and sherifs preserve their
ancient sovereignty and allow no ruler
within their gates except alter permits
sion asked and granted.
The ceremony will doubtless remain,
barring the knock at the gate, which
does not exist. The last proclamation
is made either at the corner OF Wood
street, Cheapside, or beside the Royal
Exchange. In the provinces the proc
lamations are made by the local mayors.
Beng proclaimed and crowned, the
king has to offer to fight for his throne.
In the oden times, when a king reigned
by the power of his right arm, this was
4 necessary Formally and because it
was necessary once it is done still. But
the king no longer does his own fight
ing. He has champion, the heredi
tary champion of England, whose bust
ness it is to do battle with all corners
for the crown
The champion is always a member OF
the Dymoke family When the king is
crowned he rides into Westminster
Hall, mounted and in iull armor, Just as
the champion was GOO years ago. He
is accompanied by the earl marshal and
the lord great chamberlain, also on
horseback. The hall is crowded with
tickcted sielltseers.
y proclamation is read by one OF the
heralds challenging anybody who dis
putes the right OF the sovereign to COM
bat in an open space. The champion
throws down his gauntlet as a guaran-
tee OF good faith and then the hearts OF
all the ladies futter in anticipation OF
tight
But it is all Disappointing sham. If
some enterprising person were to take
up the challenge and the gauntlet he
would probably be run in by the police
for creating disturbance. The herald
takes UP the glove and hands it back to
the champion and then the king is
firmly seated on his throne.
