 ing to the Convention

Bradley is credited with being among those wso are opposed to Taylor remaining out of the state.

POLITICAL NOTES.

Every Democratic editor u hard At
work trying 70 convince his readers that
the 10 TO plank Of the Kansas City
platform doesn't mean anything. But
he doesn't attempt to account for Mr..
Bryan's persistency 10 forcing lie adop-
ton.
Some sincere, able statesmen, like
Senator's Edmunds and Hoar, who disap-
prove of the Republican policy of ex-
pansion, nevertheless are working hard
for the reelection Of. Mckinley. They
reason that II the Republican party has
made mistakes, the Democratic party
could be trusted only 70 make far worse
ones; that with It's notorious, and In
hundreds Of instances criminal enmity to
the colored race'of this country, the
Democratic party is not the party to en-
trust with the work OF freeing the brown
people Of the Philippines. Reasoning
also that questions Of good government
at home are more important than policies
abroad, those more logical OF the anti
expansionists bitterly oppose a third
ticket or any other movement which can
result only In helping In destroy the
civil service, degrade the Supreme Court,
and reduce the industrial workers Of the
country, through accent dollar wages,
to the level OF the Filipinos and the
coolies Of China.
All the historic precedents favor the
reelection Of President Mckinley, for no
President has ever run for . second term,
with a united party behind him, who was
not reelected. The Presidents who have
held two terms were Washington, Jeifer-
son, Madison, Monroe, Jackson, Lincoln
and Grant. These were reelected either
by the whole people, as In the case OF
Washington and Monroe. or by an IN
divided party vote. The Presidents
who were defeated for \ second term
were John Adams, John Quincy Adams,
Martin Van Buren,, Grover Cleveland
and Benz amin Harrison, and In each case
their defeat was due TO dissensiops In
their own party, and they were not loyal
ly supported. The most recent instan.
ces, Harrison and Cleveland, are within
the memory OF every one. The farmers
quarrel with Blaine lost him many votes,
while Cleveland was defeated In New
York by one Of the Democratic factions.
But there are no divisions In the Re-
publican party to-day, based on the spirit
OF faction or enmlty TO Mckinley. The
party stands four square to the world,
presenting an nnbroken front In every
direction. The discussions are In the
Democratic party, not the Republican.
