FUTURE OF DEMOCRACY,

The Philadelphia Record says: "Scn-
ator Morgan, OF Alabama, is lea,ler
of the D. mocracy who, being exceed
ingly tenacious of his opinions, is not
yet con, inced that the battle for free
silver coinage has been finally lost.
He will find new Democrats either
North or South who arc willing to
make another campaign for short
weight dollars; but there are thousands
who will agree with him in the declar-
alton that the Democratic party has
had a fixed creed for 100 years which
has never been altered. There is, there
fore, no necessity for any reorganiza-
ton of the party What the party
needs is l'!' lily Of membership to the
creed that has Sc long held them t.
gethcr.'
The silver issue was an intcrpola-
ton. 1t will be well to drop it as a
finger burning firebrand and 90 back
to foundation principles. The Demo
Gratis of the South should be foremost
i'll such movement. No part of the
republic is so profoundly concerned in
the return to power of the party of
Jefferson

MARCUS DAILY DEAD.

After an illness Of many weeks Marcus
Daily, the Montana copper king, died
Monday at the Hotel Netherland, in New
y ork city.
The end had been expected for weeks.
He came home from Euro,e about the
middle of September and SOON afterward
was obliged to take to the bed from which
he never again arose. His physicians in
formed the relatives some time ago that
Mr.. DAILY could not recover, and they
would give assurance of life only from
day to day. Brght's disease, complicated
with hert weakness, was the cause of
death.
With the death cf Marcus Daily ends one
of the most remarkable politica! and bust
ness fouls in the history Of this country.
William A. Clark, the surviving combat
ant, lost the last of the many sanguinary
conflicts that had marked the careers of
the two men for many years.
Fortunes which the owners could not
estimate were the implements Of warfare
in the struggle between Clark and Daily
To mention d ,ly is to Gail up Clark, for
the two mining magnates are as in dssolu-
bly, associated in the pubic mind as the
Siamese twins Daily was born in Ireland
in 1912. Thirteen years later found him

got him in line FOR advanctme. : which
followed i'll due time. He ma lc good use
of his know &c ail OPP 'lruriies, with
the result that lie was ut the time of his
death multi millionaire
The time and cause of the break between
DAILY and Clark, who at one time were in
innate business and personal friends, have
been Il prolific source Of speculation, each
investigator arriving at a different concu-
sion. Certainly it existed from 1893, some
saw from the early seventies
One of the last battles of the copper
kings was concluded in the Spring of this
year, when DAILY succeeded in thwarting
the ambition of Clark to hold his seat as
United States Senator from Montana.
Clark however, won in the recent election.
While Daily gave his enemies no quarter,
he had the reputation Of being generous to
IA fault to those whom he considered his
friends.
DAILY was credited by the labor leaders
with being the oHe man who kept wages
I'D in the State Several times other en-
poyers of miners tried to cut wages, but
he always refused.
The engagement of Miss Mlr.tret Daily,
a daughter of Mr. Daily and Mr. H. Carroll
Brown, of Baltimore, was announced
about two weeks agp.

RURAL FREE DELIVERY.

In his estimate for the forthcoming
fiscal year tie Postmaster-Gcnera sets
aside the sum of So 100000 for the
extension and maintenance of the ru-
raj free delivery service, branch of
the general postal scheme which has
developed into magnitude and impor-
lance during the last few years. "While
it is essentially losing venture" says
the Baltic. Sun, sit is nevertheless a
convenience of broad scope and justi-
fed in most cases 10y the circumstances
Of its creation. The tendency toward
suburban residence among taxpayers
Of moderate means which Las been
manil''sting itself more strongly YEAR
by year has also developed an extern
sion which carries some OF the suburb
antics pretty well into the country.
Electric and steam railway service has
kept pace with this natural scq""nrr
of urban growth and has furnished con
venienccs equal almost to those enjoyed
in cities. 1t seems proper, therefore,
that free delivery in the rural sections
should be installed where conditions
warrant it. The year about to close
has brought nearly 1900 rural routes,
and plans now formulated contemplate
the establishment of about $500 more
during the next year. 1t is apt to
prove costly: but the resident outside
of the city limits who enjoys so many
other conveniences is beginning now
to expect free delivery of bis mail".

THE INTEROCEANIC CANAL.

Admiral Walker, head of the Ncara qua
Canal Commission, states that the prelimi-
nary report of the commission will be
ready for Congress when it assemblies.
The full report. he says will not be
ready for some time, as all of the data is
not yet in hand. This, however, will be
unnecessary at the present time, as the
preliminary report will give Congress all
the data necessary for clear view of the
situation. Both the Nicaragua and Panama
routes have been examined and the
report deals with both. While the Pana-
ma route is favorably mentioned, it is
said the report will recommend the con-
struction of canal along the Nicaragua
route.
The commission has been at work for
IS or 20 months, and as 100000 was
placed at its disposal, it is presumed the
surveys were as thorough as possible.
Senator Harris, of Kansas, who is on
the Special Committee on the Interocea-
mic Canal, says he believed the bill would
be passed at the coming session

The present value of the stock Of
the Standard Oil trust is nearly per
cent of the entire wealth Of the United
States, as calculated for the present
year. One hundred such corporations
would represent the value OF all the
land, live stock, buildings, railroads,
merchandise, mines, shipping, and per
sonal effects of the 100000 people
in the United States. The dividends
which it has declared this year are
equal to the entire annual earnings Of
about IS 900 mechanics, working full
time the year through.

HANNA TALKS CONGRESS :.

Senator Hanna in discussing the comm g
session of Congress said:
Congress this year will have some i'm
portant duties to perform. Three great
bills-the Nicaraguan Canal bill, TIL Army
bill and the Ship Subsidy bill-are to come
before it. The Nicaraguan Commission
will make its report early in the session,
and the debate in the Senate will proba
bly, begin early.
Il presume there will be changes Of
some Importance in the bill. 1t is reason
able to suppose that a lapse of several
month, has made a difference in the senti-
ment of the people on the bill and Il
change in some of its main features will
be the natural result. The Costa Rican
treaty, especially, involved US in consi-
derable difficulty and the Costa Rican
Government had to be consulted
When asked in what measure he would
most interest Himself, during the..session
Senator Hanna said:
Il have no pet measures this year and
shall take no particular interest in any of
the bills before Congress. Perhaps | am
as much interested IN Senator Frye's ship
subsidy bill as in any.
Tie r"yalist republicans, if such term
be allowable, are already talking abb ut
making Mr.. MCkihley's second Inaugural
ton an event of regal splendor and mag
nificence. Mr.. L. P. Kitchener, of Indi-
ana, who practices law in Washington in
partnership with Gen W. W. Dudley, is
franker than many of them. He said in a
public interview about the Inauguration II:
I'VE should strive to excel in the glory
of that day the spendor Of the jubilee of
Englands Queen"

clear. The legislature appears to keep
g standing committee to live at the
high-priced hotels and investigate the
city's affairs. The Mazet committee re-
ports gravely that it "sees as the cen
trail power. not the man who sits In the
mayors chair, but the man who stands
behind it. We see the same arbitrary
power debating appoiu tmepts, direct
ing officials, controlling boards, lectur-
ing mem bers of the legislature and the
municipal assembly. We see an en-
ornous and ever increasing crowd OF
officeholders with ever-incressing sala-
ries. The proof is conclusive, not that
the public treasury has been directly
robbed, but that great opportunities
have been given, by manipulation OF
public offices, to- enable favored tndiv1-
duals to work for their own personal
benefit" Exactly the same condition
is reported by every Investigating COM
mittee and the citizens seem to like 1t.
And the rural members of the legisla-
ture seem to like to tax their constitu-
ents to foot the investigators bills.
The whole business is a silly farce and
ought to know it.

DISCUSSING Speaker Henderson g
career as a soldier, Senator Allison
said the other day: "When told that
the leader of a student band of recruits
wanted to zee me, 1 asked that he be
shown in, and a tall, clean-limbed,
clear-eyed youngster entered. He had
a lot of recruits with him, and he said
his name was Henderson. 1 looked at
the recruits: they were all right, Hen
derson had not only brought those boys
in On his own responsibility, but he
had done it with almost no expense to
any one; his enthusiasm had been so
Infectious that the farmers had been
glad to feed and transport them free. "
Mr.. Henderson is not so much talked
about as Speaker Reed was, but he is
proving to be an admirable presiding
officer for the house of represent
atiyes

city. There will be an i'm
provement for week or two
and then matters will go on again
the same as before. A new form
of violation OF the Sunday laws Is just
now the subject OF particular attack
from many quarters. The theaters
that present the lowest forms of vari-
ETY. shows have been keeping open
Sunday under cloak OF the ordinance
that permits sacred concerts" Sunday
theatrical performances are common
in many of our cities, but for some rea
son they were never general here until
the advent of the present Tammany
administration.
Among his other plishme ats,
our mayor is a champion baef steak
eater, and q match has been arranged
between him aud another city official,
Register Eromme, to take place at the
Mohicau club February 18th. The re-
gister's record is nine and one-qusrter
pounds, while the mayor os boast of
only seveo sand half pounds. A
contest that will reflect honor upon
the city will be ba in any event, since
the triumph of the register will be
only shade less creditable than
the victory Of his honor, the mayor.
The masquer .de ball of the Cercle
Francois de Harmonic, commonly
known as the French ball, took place
At Madison Square garden last
night. 1t was tame affair
as all of them have been
in recent years. Only the dregs of
the town are to be found on the floor
and Society" which used to occupy
the boxes in the hope of being scan
dalized, has lost interest and now stays
away. There were, of course, some
few handsome costumes and a few
cases of wine were drunk, bnt there
was a great falling off in both direc-
tions. The ballet which took place at
IL o'clock was the only thing worth
seeing in the garden.
Ada Rehan, after a long absence

ton must be from an alderman who
wants to open to his constituents a
new way to make money, for hundreds
of the citizens of Chicago would not
scruple an instant to shoot down an

bounty, alleging that they caught him
breaking into a house. Such law put

POOR BOY!

1t was sad to see that comedy boy OF
sixteen, George Morton, go away to
the penitentiary yesterday chained to
a Mexican outlaw. The boy tried to
steal some candy and as consequence
has two years to serve among
men of the most depraved charac-
ter.
Texas lawmakers ought to watch
every step taken by the departme nt
of charities and correction in New
York in the direction of separating
from confirmed criminals boys who
make misstep in a moment OF tenn pta-
ton. The president of the depart
ment, John w. Keller, has made the
admirable suggestion that separate
court be organized for the trial OF
juvenile offenders. In this way, their
isolation from confirmed criminals
will be assured. Mr.. Keller under
stands clearly what the association OF
the young with old convicts means,
AID mas taken a radical step In the
right direction. The objection that is
likely to be urged is the increased ex-
pense; but that can be readily avoided,
il is suggested, by giving the regular
magistrate an additional hour eacn
day in a separate court room.
To begin with, youths should not be
locked up in station houses without
the gravest provocatiou. Except In
cases of homicide, their attendance be
fore magistrate can always be-
guaranteed by parent or nelghbor.
In England, summons is served on
the parents of child, commanding his
production in court. and the greatest
care is taken not to send a willful boy
or girl who is only willful to an insti-
tuition where he or she will associate
with criminals.
Mr.. Keller's idea ought to be tried
at once in everylarge city in this coun-
try.

ACCORDING to London dispatch, a
circular pleading for the Beers and
appealing for peace in South Africa,
signed by 400 clergymen of all denomi-
nations, in the Netherlands, has just
been delivered to the ministers of all
Christian churches in Great Britain.
'We beseech you, brethren.' says the
circular in closing, "to use your influ-
ence so that all such in England as on
Christian principles disapprove this
war, may try whatever lawfully may
be done for it's speedy cessation" Ac-
cording to South African dispatches
the British need pleading for as much
as the Beers. They are two tough
boys and they will carry the war to the
hittar end
