for the succession If Bryan is only permanently
brushed aside now. They also believe that
their party can be resuscitated by 1904, no mat
ter how violent the defeat may be which now
buries Bryan ont of sight Privately they hold
that Bryan and Organism only have stood in
the way of Democratic ascendancy.
Hence Bryans success now would be the
death knell to the long cherished hopes of such
men as Hill and German, whereas his foregone
defeat clears the field for new men and true
Democratic principles. Therefore Democratic
politicians with prospects, and many without
any prospects except those in their minds, feel
that it would be impolitic to continue to an
tagOnze their party and enter upon the new de-
parture in 1904 as boilers. This probably ex-
plains the attitude of this class of Democratic
leaders. without presupposng that they have
undergone any change in regard to the money
question. In other words. they do not like
Bryan any better now than they did four years
ago. and their apparent change of heart is from
considerations of expediency only.
The old Democratic leaders. relegated to the
rear four years ago by new forces. mainly
letting Mr.. Bryan this hopeless fight in
his 'Own way and "own time" Defeated they
expect him to be- and. to their credit be ii
corded, conscientiously think he ought to be.
Early convinced that under the circumstances
of the handicap Democratic success
moral impossibility anyhow, they cheerfully
stood aside TO let Mr.. Bryan ride out the storm
of 1900 as best he might to his ultimate and
final taking off. But it was no part of their
plan to eliminate themselves permanently.
They save the future by formally going
record for the candidate. Mr.. Hill, for obvious
reasons, is doing something beyond this, but
little significance can be attached, for instance,
to the adhesion of Mr.. Olney, who is doing
little or nothing for Bryan. Some Of them will,
of course be superserviceabiy loyal but Bryans
vote will not thereby be largely increased These
Democratic veterans know there is no hope
With defeat staring them in the face they yet
smile because in such defeat there are victory
and redemption.
New-York tribune., 1900-10-14
THRIFTY DEMOCRATS.

Long headed Democratic politicians in close
touch with the masses have had no hallucina-
tiOns about Bryans chances They know he
cannot be elected not even 10y an eleventh hour
huke such brought about Cleyeland's sue
cess in 1884. They are speculatng upon the
future rather than struggling with the present
What will happen after Bryan is once for all
disposed Of?
The OstentatiOus return TO Bryan's support of
some of the Democratic leaders who either
boted him outright four years ago or sulked
in their tents is held by enthusiastic BryaniteS
TO indicate general return movement of the
Gold Democrats. There are visible as well as
deducible reasons for doubling that any con-
siderable number of the rank and file of Sound
Money Democrats who voted for Mckinley in
1896 or for General Palmer viii vote for Bryan
next November. The formal return of a few
politicians who think they have a future is
merely perfunctory-a saving act TO make them
selves regular in 1904 for whatever may turn
up. Democratic leadership is one of the prizes
in sight and some of them believe the Presi-
dency itself.
An examination Of the list shows that most
Of these conspicuous Bryan recruits are either
recognized candidates for the Presidency or
are compelled as State leaders by local party
considerations. in furtherance of their own de-
signs. 10 come in 10 the support Of the National
ticket. Ex-Governor Hill ex-senator German
and. doubtless. ex-Attorney- General Olney be-
sides several others, may be counted in the
former category. We need go no further than
Richand Croker characteristic of the other
class. His new born zeal for Bryan is dictated
by coldiy calculated self-interest, which is not
at all predicated upon Bryan's election. Ma
tional success or defeat has nothing to do with
Mr. Croker's game.
II Bryan really was a possibility il is prob

THE HALL OF FAME.

The Hall of Fame is an established fact The
gift has been made with modesty and
generosity. The stately edifce is nearing COM

judiciously prepared for inscription upon the

nOuncement received with a curious mingling Of
misapprehension and malice. besides. of course,
much intelligent approval. II was Enthusiastically

such fioutings and vituperations. and has splen-

To-day it is an object OF serious and svmpa-
