wHAr VIII AppIcKs DO?

Responding to an inquiry: What
will Addicks do?" The Sun of this
morning says: "Mr. Addicks is a
union republican, and as a loyal parti-
san he will go with his party, accepting
its decisions on all matters OF party or
ganizatlon, and do his best to win a
substantial republican victory in No
vember next. To do this is character
istic OF union republicans, and one in
which they are all alike Mr.. Addicks
is not an exception to, but an exemplar
of this rule"
Since It is assumed that the Sun
speaks for Mr. Addioks that would be
more encouraging II 1t said "Mr. Ad-
dicks is a republican" etc There is
too much the sound of faction where
there ought to be no faction. II Mr..
Addlcks is a republican he certainly
will Ego with his party" and accept
its decisions" not only upon "all mat
ters OF party organization, but upon
all other party matters and questions
The partisan who is worthy Of honors
at the hands of his party is loyal to II
to the extent OF subordinating his per
sonal ambitions to the party success.
