RESPONSIBILITY SHIFTED.

inr with the incidents and conferences
following the National Republican Con-
yention ut Philadelphia. that there was
Il general recognition Of the fact that
the action of the convention in recogniz-
ing the Union Republican organization,
shifted the responsibility for the success
of the campaign which has Just glorious
ly ended, to the Union Republicans. 1t
will also be remembered that the leaders
Of that party accepted that responsible
! ity as trust held for the people of this
State, and did it fully aware of all that
| it entailed. Events have proved that the
trust was not misplaced The course of
the campaign has been marked with
proofs of the faithfuness Of the Union
Republicans under the responsibility
which they assumed. The apparently
impossible was accomplished. The Re
publican party was united upon II gen
cral ticket aud Il successful campaign
conducted

was trying. difficult work. There were
clements Of il awfully difficult 70 dad
with tho irlrconciablr element of tho
Republican party aud the element of the
Democratic party that was schcming -
prevent union of the Republican forces.
These apparently antngonstic forces
were engaged in work of mutual inter-
est, the defeat of the Union Republican
plan for carrying the State, giving the
electoral vote for Mckinley and Roose-
welt, and rlccting full Republican
State government The thing to be done
was to win the Republicans and defeat
the Democrats. How it was done is
history and remarkable interesting his
tory it will be when it comes to be
wrttcn. The result Of it is another
shifting Of responsibility. The RESPONSE
bilty for the government of the State
falls from Democratic to Republican
shoulders. 1t is not sufficient in Repub-
lican politics to simply run the machine,
that is, is not sufficient to keep it run

State government must be better than
