a future with no silver in it. This
would require courage, ability and
public spirit beyond what can easily
be hoped for; but the strong way is in
this instance the only way Little as
such Il course is likely, it is a posi-
bility; and the question comes up,
in what direction must the party look
for a leader to help it in a new start
1t must find to lead it in its new
start man identified neither with
the wave of silverism which sub
merged the old land marks of the
| party three years ago, nor with the
, shifting and characterless policy
which was resorted to by statesmen
of the German stripe in the time of
trial. 1t must have recourse to man
whose personal character and whose
reputation as a man of thought and
of political principle would of itself
give a new kind of strength to the
party. He might be, in a national
sense, "a new man, dark horse;n
but he must be known, where he is
known, as Il man of character and
principle. The Democratic party is
in state bordering on political
nonentity. There is nothing it stands
so much in need of to-day as of self
respect. To become again what it
has been in the past, it needs first of
all moral "bracer." Those who re-
member the sudden infusion of gen
uine vitality which entered into the
party when it became identified With
the strong and commanding character
of Cleveland will recognize that this
is not only sound theory, but doc
trine which has shown the strongest
proofs of its truth by actual and re-
cent experience. To put at the head
OF the Democratic party man like
German would be like ordering an
invalid suffering from general weak
ness and exhaustion TO spend the
summer i'll a Florida swamp. What
the Democratic party needs, and
needs desperately, is something which
should serve as moral and spiritual
tonic. There is a considerable mum
Der of persons whose vision is OBJ
scured by the foggy enthusiasm
which is generated in the peculiar
atmosphere of Washington political
and journalistic circles These per-
pons loom up very large i'll ante-nom-
nation gossip, but they count for
nothing i'll campaign. If the Dem
ocratic party wants to cut anything |
like a respectable figure it must look |
for a candidate who will command |
the respect and allegiance of the
honest masses of plain people who
know Il sound man and true when
they see him.
