RUSSIA TALKS PLAINLY.

1t must be acknowledged that Count
Muravieff. the Russian Minister Of For
eign Affairs. very boldly throws down
the gauge of battle to England in the
remarkable interview recently published
in the Independence Beige, of Brussels.
If this powerful diplomat is correctly
reported, it certainly viii not be the
fault OF Russia il Great Britain is not
soon forced into a war aimed at her very
existence as a Power of the first class.
According to the interview there is a
double temptation TO precipitate this
confiict-the first being that England
must account for her unrighteous op-
preston Of the Boers. the second being
that England is militarily decadent,'
and therefore easily to be whipped.

A state Primary.

The following from the Elizabeth
town News is commended 70 Democrats
throughout the State for their thought
full consideration
THE Democratic State Central Com
mittee should order primary election
this spring or summer to nominate a
candidate for Governor. and also TO send
delegates to Kansas City. The people
are sick and tired of the unfairness,
;rickery and corruption and fraud Of
conventions, and the primary is certain
ly the fairest and most decent way to
secure the sentiment Of the people.
Georgia and Maryland have used the
primary for number Of years and il
has given perfect satisfaction.

A PARTY's OPPORTUNITY.

The Danville (Va.) Bee says that ''the
Republican party will, of course, be
able TO raise bowling large campaign
fund for corruption and other purposes,
but those who claim to read the signs of
the times, say that the party is going
backward" One scarcely need be able
to read the signs of the times to discov-
er this fact--it is in the air. The pres
ent session of Congress has proved DIS
astross to the Republican party, which
is far weaker than il was when this
body met in December last. AT that
time everything was going President
McKinley's way, as had been the case
ever since the beginning Of the Cuban
war his reelection seemed then as GER
tain as anything in the future Of poll
tics could be. Certainty has since, how
ever, changed TO doubt, and at this mo-
ment the chances appear to the candid
mind balanced rather in favor OF the
Democrats. For this the Republican
party has 10 thank itself rather than
any tacital capacity on the part Of the
Democrats. These owe their opponents
a debt of gratitude which they can
never repay for the currency bill which
was recently signed by the President
and which removes all danger Of the
agitation Of free coming of silver at
least during the next administration.
The Democratic party, in so far as can
be judged from present appearances,
needs but to exercise ordinary sense IN
order to carry this years election. The
opportunity of life time is before it.
Win il have the wisdom 70 seize this
opportunity? Will it have the wisdom
90 live mp to its privileges?
