DEMOCRATIC "FUNDAMENTALs.r

Chairman Jones, of the national
Democratic committee, is quoted as
saying that "the election result was
great surprise to all Democrats" who
were $50 confident of SUCCESS that the
sweeping Republican victory came ms
severe shock.N He considers Mr..
Bryan "a great man" and believes
s'his influence will be felt for many
years to come in American politics, .
but he thinks it doubtful if he will be
q candidate for the presidency again.
The Arkansas senator scouts at the
idea that there will be any "reorganiza
ton" of the Democratic party. He
says:
1T may be laid down primarily. how,
ever, that the Democratic party wifi
never vary from its established fundai
mentals, strict construction of the
constitution and answering adherence
70 its principles and economically ad,
ininistered government for the benefit of
the governed. The silver questson NAV
solve itself. Should the amount of gold
produced be ample to maintain a suffi.
cient volume of metallic money and
insure the stability of prices, the silver
question will be subordinated, but should
the supply fall short by the demands of
trade, the silver question will be made
prominent The question of imperialism
may also ind solution outside the ballet
box. 1 believe the supreme court will
decide against the Porto Rican law, and
should this be done there will be a
esuision OH the part OF the Republicans
themselves against the retention of the
Philippines. But just what the issues of
ky04 Will be no one can predict with anv
iegree of certainty
The senator might have added that
The only thing that can be predicted
With any degree of certainty, with re.
pect to the Democratic party is that it

they are willing to 0e kept.

It has been many years since the
people of the United States have had
more or greater reasons for joining with
grateful hearts in Thanksgiving and
praise to the Great Oliver ofall good and
perfect gifts than they have today.
And there is no locality in all our great
country where the harvests have been
more abundant, the rewards of the
husbandman and the labOrer more
gratifying and the people as rule
more prosperous, happy and contented
than they are in this island county,
5000 miles away from the scene of the
first Thanksgiving of the Pilgrim
Fathers OH the bleak Massachusetts,
coast.

tutional justification can lie found for
the Democratic acquisition Of Florida,
Texas, or California. There have al
ways been very radical differences
between Democratic theories and prac-
tees. In its early days the party was
theoretically opposed to protection, to
internal improvements and to the
United States bank, but in 1916 it
established new national bank
modelled closely after HamiltOn's and
in the same year imposed small pro.
tective duty upon cotton and wooden
goods. 1t always ignored or evaded
the strict construction doctrine when
ever the question of slavery was in
vOlved, though it vehemently reas-
serted it as the basic principle of its
creed i'm the Baltimore platform of 1910.
which also declared that ''the cOnstitu-
ton does not confer authority upon the
federal government to commence or
carry Oh a general system of internal
improvement" and also that "no more
revenue ought to be raised than is re-
quired to defray the necessary expenses
of the government" At the Baltimore
convention of 1852 it Endorsed the
Missouri compromise and resolved that
"The Democratic party will resist all
attempts at renewing, in congress or
out of it, the agitation of the slavery
question, under whatever shape or
color the attempt may be made" At
Charleston in 1860 the party split OH
the rock of slavery, but both the north
ern and southern wings adopted reso-
lutions favoring Pacific railroad, the
acquisition of Cuba (which it now OPP
poses) and condemning any attempt to
defeat the execution of the fugitive
slave law. The bitter platform adopted
at Chicago in 1854 made not the re-
hottest reference to any economic prin.
ciple upon which the party proposed to
manage the government, if successful,
but confined itself to attacks upon the
management of the war and denuncla-
ton of the administration of President
Lincoln. 1t declared the war failure
and the constitution disregarded in
every part, and demanded the cessation
OF hostilities. It's candidates received.
the electoral votes of only three states
New, Jersey, Delaware and Kentucky.
When the war was ended and peace
restored few months later, the party
did its utmost TO place Instructions in
the difficult path of the government by
persistently opposing its policy of re-
construction,:and it has been party of
opposition and obstruction ever since.
1t has played fast and loose with all the
principles it ever had and has suffered
itself to be Shifted about in every wind

A Village Blacksmith Saved His Little
Sons Life.

Mr.. H. H. Black, the well-known Will
age blacksmith at Grahamville, Sullivan
Co., N. Y, says: 'Our little son, five
years old, has always been subject to
Group, and SO bad have the attacks been
that we have feared many times that he
would die. We have had the doctor and
used many medicines, Tut Chamberlain's
Cough Remedy is now our sole reliance.
1t seems to dissolve the tough mucus and
by giving frequent doses when the croupy
symptoms appear we have found that the
dreaded Group is cured before it gets set
tied" There is no danger in giving this
remedy, for it contains no opium or other
injurious drug and may be given as con :
fidently to a babe as to an adult. For sale

Mr.. Mckinley carries six states that
voted for Bryan in 1896-Kansas, Ne
braska, South Dakota, Utah, Washing
ton and Wyoming having together 80
electoral votes. He loses Kentucky, in
which he got IL votes and Mr.. Bryan
in 1896. Mr.. Mckinley also gains
the one vote which he lost In California
four years ago. He gains approximate
~ Us, 900 in his plurality in the popu.
lar vote.
Mr.. Mckinley carries all of the East
ern, Middle, Northwestern and Pacific
Coast states, except, Colorado, Idaho,
Montana aud Nevada, which have
altogether only 13 electoral votes. He
carries also the border states of Mary
lany, Delaware and West Virginia.
The result of the congressional cleo

senate are thus estimated from the
