Not one word derogatory 70 Gov.
Bcckham has appeared in these
columns since we began the work OF
trying to harmonic the two wings
ofthe Democratic party, by plead
ing for a united party and a nomi-
nee who can retrieve the losses Of
last year. We have merely as
serted that he is in many respects
lacking IN the elements of strength
necessary to win. In the same
spirit of fairness to him, we want to
discuss a moment the claim Of his
friends that he is the natural lega-
tee of Gov Goebel's organized toll
lowing. This is as far from true as
is the claim that harmony can be
restored by the nomination OF any
man actively connected with either
faction in 1899. Gov. Beckham did
not take an active part in Goebel's
canvass last year. 1t was gallant
old Joe Blackburn who stood by
Goebel's side when he tainted dur
ing his 6rst speech and it was the
same friend who was with him
when the last of his one hundred
speeches was made. 1t was Joe
Blackburn S brother and Jas. d.
Black who rode horseback with Goe-
bel over the mountains and staid
with him in the thckest of the fight.
These friends of Goebel and such
other friends as Hazelrigg, Young,
Richardson, Desha, Woodsou,
James and Scott are all now for
harmony and victory. This is the
company we are in when we plead
for a new leader
Other circumstances go to show
that Goebel's and, Beckham 5
friends are not identical. Gov.
Goebers brother left Kentucky a !
week ago and is taking no part in
Gov Beckham race. Nor has Gov.
Beckham' course in hobnobbing
and breaking bread with Charlie
Bronston last week had a reas-
suring effect on those Of Goe-
bells friends who may be support
ing Beckham from personal reasons.
But to bring the subject closer
home. Five months ago Christian
county had in the race for Prison
Commissioner Mr.. Geo. V. Green, a
strong Goebel man, who was the
personal choice of the dead Cover
nor. He was opposed by man
who antagonized Goebels nomina-
ton, and every vote from Gov.
district was cast
against Green, who was finally
over the solid opposition
OF The Fourth district. Mr.. Green S
managers went to Gov, Beckham
more thau or3f and begged him for
the dead Goebeis sake to control at
least a part of the votes IN his as
trict but he frankly confessed that
he could not control the vote OF even
his law-partner, the Nelson county
representative.
Christian county is under no OBJ
locations to Gov. Beckham and the
friends Of Mr.. Green, who helped
him win his fight without aid from
GOV. Beckham, feel that this is a
rood time TO remind Gov. Beckham
that he has no right to claim the
support Of even Goebel's personls

THE ST.. LOUIS WORLDS FAIR.


The bill appropriating s5,OOO,ooO for the
worlds fair in st. Louis in 1908 deserves
TO meet the prompt and favorable action
Of congress.
1t Is for congress TO say whether the
centennial anniversary of the Louisiana
purchase shall be commemorated in be-
1ftting manner ST. Louis has done all that
can be required of It, in pledgIng the sum
Of S10.00OO 900 as condition precedent to
the demand for federal aid,
That the st. Louis Worlds fair move
ment is Endorsed by the States that have
been carved out OF the vast territory rep
resented in the Louisiana purchase. and
that its SUCCESS is matter OF pride and
affection with these States was shown at
the Transmississlppi Congress, but recent
ly adjourned in Houston. When the reso-
luton indorslng the proposition was sub
mitted to the Transmissssippi Congress 1t
was not only adopted by unanimous vote,
but was supported in ringing speeches by
delegates from almost every State repre-
sented in that important and intelligent
body.
There is abundant precedent for federal
aid. An exaet precedent, in fact is pre-
aented in the case OF the Worlds Fair
and that celebrated a no less Important
event than will the ST. n,ouis exposition
In fact, there Is an idea in the St. Louis
exposition more tangible. more practica
and. we may say, worthier Of celebration
than in the Chicago fair--so far as mere
ideas go.
Here Is this Transmississippi country

productive OF any similar territory on tht

ration OF craftsmanship the wisdom o

it has so marvelously contributed, but AZ

the year 1899 had drifted into sympathy
with Jefferson and his followers, and had
become a determined opponent, open OF
disguised, of Hamilton and his policy.
Madisons conspicuous position and in
fuence made his attitude upon public
questions an important one, and his separ-
alton from old associates and his antag-
onism to their cherished views led natur-
ally to bitter personal enmities; but the
sentiment which charges Madison with
political apostasy Is largely read into the

AngRIcAN POLITICAL PARTIES
u.-NATIoNAL NOMINATING MA
CHINERY.
BY Jesse Macy, LII. d.
rhc Congre..ionaI Cnucu..

Much confusion exists among writer's
upon American political parties due to
their failure to distinguish clearly the two
different ideas suggested by the word
party. There is (s) the party OF the
present day, a thoroughly organized ma
chine. its parts all carefully adjusted to
one another and all working IN harmony
to bring about and 10 uphold definite
National policy--that is to say, to form
and to express in an effective manner the
political opinions Of a large body OF cti-
zens. Quite another thing was OBJ the
mere loose, temporary association OF men
of like views in respect to some particu-
lar question or questions of public in
terest, which was all that the word i'm
piled In the early years Of the republic.
Many leaders OF opinion were then deep
" distrustful OF tendencies to closer par
tisan union. Washington was careful to
declare himself--and no doubt with per-
feet sincerlty-"not a party man. In
his first inaugural address Jefferson as
serts: 1--WE are all republicans-we are
all federalists." He felt himself the
representative of the Nation-not of a

his political career against partisanship
and the strengthening OF party divisions
Like any institution possessed of true
vitality and entering Dramatically into the
life OF people, the American political
party OF today is a growth, a plant whose
roots ranify in the soil OF the distant
past, and a product far other than the
seed from which 1t sprung AS little is
the present republican or democratic party
like to the Federal or republican party
100 years ago as the full-grown oak Is like
to the acorn which gave 1t birth, and cleaT
thinking in political history must sharply
distinguish them.
The federalists who fought for the
adoption OF the Constitution in 1889 agreed
