We are told by the friends of
Congressman Robb that he has
never been anything but consistent
Iy Democratic in all his actions
since he was elected to Congress.
OF course not; no one expected
anything else from a man like Robh,
whose calibre is not large enough
to carry any farther than the limits
of a horizon narrowed by prejudice.
He consistently and ohsequlo''sly
waits upon the word Of Mr..
Bryan before he emits his little
cuckooing note. Fancy, if YOU
can. Robb beside IL Democrat like
Congressman Sibley, of Pcnnsyl
vania, who not only has the cour
age of his convictions but the CON
victions of his courage, which en-
ables him to rise above the Iimita-
tiOns of Democratic consistency.
Sibley "wouId rather see his coun-
try prosper than his party succeed, "
while Robb would rather see his,
party prosper than his country
succeed. We have copy Of
Robh's speech on the gold standard
bill. delivered in the House through
the medium of the government
printing office. In this speech he
takes great care 10 goose-stcp con

days which have passed since 1861,
never advocated a policy of its own
except free trade and free silver,
and on both it was overwhelmingly
beaten. The democracy during
forty years has constantly been an
obstruction in the path of progress.
If the Missourian stops his party
from being merely an objector to
everything on it own account, he
will be doing a service to that par
ty and the country, providing the
thing proposed be not like that
which was pnt forward in the
Chicago convention in 1896, which
the country emphatically rejected.
The prospect for Stone being able
to do any missionary work Of that
kind this year. however, is faint.
The only issues which Bryan and
the rest of his party chicftains are
talking about these days are the
gold standard and expansion. Both
are Republican doctrines and
Bryan and his friends oppose both.
In 1900, as in most of the presi-
tiaI years since 1860, the democ-
racv's role will be as an obstruc-
tive and negationist SOLELY
Globe Democrat.

THE GREAT PRESIDENTIAL

The wars of America haze heretofore,

policy, OF national motives and national
conCiusIors have been answered as soon as
the battle smoke cleared away, and tie

Spain IS unlike its predecessors. 1t has
not answered questions. but has created
problems which may not be solved lightly.
These. problems are being formulated by
the political parties. and before they can
be definitely settled at the ballot box it is
necessary that the people be Informed in

The First Eaticna; Bank.

Tho first national bank was estab-
li>hed by Robert Morris, 'superin-
tendent Of finance" during the wal
of independence. Through his and
the efforts of his bank it was that
the armies of Washington did not
disband for want of arms, ammuni
ton and food and clothing. 1t
furnished The only good money in
the country, buying it in foreign
lands. That bank and its success
sors enabled the new republic to
establish firm government and
set wllil ling the wheels of progress
and prosperity. Thus they emf
hIed the nation to pay It's enormous
war debts and pay for the Louisi-
ana and the Florida territories.
In short, national banks had ell
abled the nation to clear off lis
public debt and leave an acct,mu,

To the County Court.

The Democrats of this county.
especially those who are interested
in getting at the public crib, will
make q strenuous effort this year to
elect Democrats to the county
court bench. They will, no doubt,
charge the present Republican
court with all manner of extrava-
gances in making appropriations
of the county's funds. The present
court should. therefore order pub
bIished the complete list Of war
rants issued during the past year,
showing how the money was ex
pended and to whom paid. I'm
til last year such a statement has
always been published in this
county. When in 1S9? the war
raat list was ommitted from the
annual financial statement, the
Democratic party organ at once
came out charging the Republican
county court with having run the
county in debt through extrava-
gancc. The same game will doubt
less be tried again this year. The
statutes provide for publication
of the warrant list, as follows:
Sec. 3ls1.-Court to make out
an account of receipts and expen-
ditures. etc.-And the said courts
shall ut the same time, make out a
statement of the amount of dekt
due by their counties aud a detail
cd account of the receipts and ex-
penditures of the same for the pre-
cecdin@ year, showing from what
officer and on what account any
money has been received, AND TO
WHAT INDIVIDUALS AND ON WHAT AC
COUNT ANY MONEY HAS BEEN PAID.
and shall strike Il balance, showing
deficit, if any, or the balance in the
treasury, if any.

The Party Of Negation.

Ex GOV. Stone, of Missouri,
wrote a letter the other day which
is attracting some attention in Dem
ocra,ic circles. 1t was to Judge J.
J. WiIlet, nf Alabama, who !iglr-
ed recently as a promoter Of a Van
Wvck boom. and who is in favor
of 'anvthing to beat Bryan" The
eX Governor remarked that ''the
Democratic party mast be pro-
mressive. 1t can not content itself
with merely obiecting to what the
Republican party proposes. 1t
must be party which has some
thing to rrnrse on its own account.
1t can not be merely Il force in op-
position if it ever expects to accom-
plish anything.'
All this is true, of course, but
the thing which the Ex-Governor
wants the Democratic party to do
is something which it has not done
for forty years, except when it ia
yored free trade and when it adopt
ed the silver folly. Ever since its
overthrow in 1860 the Democratic
party has been an organized mega
ton. 1t has contented Itself with OPP
posing every pelicy which the Re
pnI,.icans advocated without sug-
costing anything of its own which
would appeal to any considerable
number of the sane people Of the
| United States. CT on which any
important numbez' of its osvn fol-
lowers could unite. 1t opposed
the adoption of the greenbacks
when the Republican party created
this currency as means of pro-
viding fer the suppression Of the
rebellion, and then when the
Republicans, a few years later,
started out to carry into effect its
promise to make the greenbacks As
good as gold by making them re-
deemable in gold, the democrats
turned in favor of the greenbaclss
and not only would not make them
redeemable in anything, but would
increase them in volume to Alch an
extent that they could not be re-
deemed if the treasury mad as much
gold as it has at the pi esent day.
This is only one of the democ-
racv's works as an obstructive. 1t
has fought every measure that has
been put forward by the Republi-
cans since the Republicans first
gained possession of the govern
ment. 1t opposed the banking sys-
tenn, the three amendments to the
constitution, and every other
measure which the Republican par
ty passed and which the country
has sanctioned. It has, in all the
