THE OBJECT OF PARTIES.

From the Daily Republican of yesterday.
The object Of parties should be to in
stitute good government, promote public
welfare, develop the resources Of the
country generally, and not reward par
ticular friends or punish personal enc
mics. There may De unworthy aspirants
fof Office, but ID is poor policy to break
I'D party to get rid Of them. With the
same propriety General Washington
might have laid down his sword when
he discovered Arnold's treason. The
good soldier will not desert his post be-
cause OF the dereliction of an unworthy
member of his compady. The same
patriotic feeling should animate every
man who aspires to leadership of the
party. Success should never be jeopar-
died by real or imaginary grievances.
Successfully carrying into effect the
measures Of the party are of more i'm
portance than the punishment of per-
sonaf enemies or avenging q private
grievance 1t is folly to allow the errors
or ambitions of any individual to jeopar-
die party success. As we'll may man

with him, 60 home, quarrel with his
wife. turn his family out of doors and
then commit suicide. It is unwise to
prescribe conditions that will lead to

SHORTER POLITICAL CAMPAIGN
From the Philadelphia Record of yesterday.

From the Philadelphia Record of yesterday.
Political campaigns in the United
States are too long. A State campaign
of seven months or national canvass OF
five months duration is inimical to the
good conduct OF public and private busi-
ness. The argument is fallacious that
between the nomination and the elec-
tion OF candidates there should inter-
vene considerable period of time in
which to educate voters in the questions
at issue. In England, where the elect
oral campaigns never exceed few
weeks, nobody complains that too little
time is given to inform the electors as to
the issues. In tl.is age of newspapers
and electric telegraphs people keep them
selves informed of events which shape
party policies and which give form and
substance to the deliberations of nomi-
mating conven ions. Immediately after
the nominations are made and the plat
form is announced the people are ready
for the political missionaries. The can.
vass could, therefore, begin within a day
after the Adjournment Of the convention.

MR.. SEWALL'S POSITION.

From the Evening Journal Of Yesterday.
Arthur Sewall. who was second on the
Bryan ticket in 1896, has been travelling
extensively throughout the United
States, acquiring political information.
He is convinced thar no party may hope
for sue cess unless it fayors expansion,
and he will visit Mr. Bryan as an ex-
pansion missionary and labor with him
like an evangelist who wrestles with a
sinner and the devil. He will try to in
duce the silver crowned orator of the
gold cross to permit slight repairs upon
the Chicago platform SO that American
citizens can vote for it without cruelty
ing their patriotism and forfeiting their
American self respect. Mrs. Sewall says:
Il believe that the Democratic party
will have good chance for victory at
the coming election, but that no man
can be elected president on the anti.ex-
pansion plank in relation to the Philip.
pine Islands. We cannot pull down the
American flag. The Democrats should
readjust the Chicago platform with a
plank declaring for expansion and
American ownership of the Philip
pinee.D

DECIDE THE QUAY CASE.
From the Philadelphia Times of Yesterday.

From the Philadelphia Times of Yesterday.
LIZ the Senate means to reverse its
hitherto unbroken lin, of decisions af-
fecting the appointment of Senator by
the Governor of State, it ought 20 face
the question fairly and decide it at once,
by vote upon the admission of Mr..
Quay. Ofif the Senate intends to follow
it's own precedents and reject Governor
Stones appointment, that equally should
be declared, The question is one of
highest privilege, as concerns not mere
ly Mr.. Quay but the State of Pennsyl-
vania, and it should be decided one way
or the other.
The adverse report OF the committee
on privileges and elections set forth the
hitherto established policy OF the Senate,
which is adverse to Governor Stones
power of appointment in this case. The
minority report proposes reversal of
this policy and the admission Of Senator
Quay, on the ground that the Constitu-
tion secures 10 each State the right of
equal representation IN the Senate and
that this right is paramount to Senatorial
precedent. The question is one that only
the Senate itself mas the power TO deter
mine. The decision is entirely within lis
discretion. 1t may decide one way to
day and aaother way tomorrow and
there is no appeal from il. Ouiy il Ought

UnquestionabIy Pennsylvania is en-
titled TO its lull representation in the
