THE ADMINISTRATION PARTY.

1t appears that several of the aspirants
for the seat in the Senate now occupied
by Senator Mason have sought through
friends to bespeak the assistance of Presi-
dent Roosevelt. The leaders of one of the
factions in Illinois announced some time
since with much emphasis that they would
support Mr.. Roosevelt in 1904. As might
have been expected. President Roosevelt
has told the leaders of the different fac
tions that he Will not interfere in the sena-
torial contests in any State. and, further.
that so far as he can prevent il he will not
permit federal officers To interfere in the
primaries in behalf Of any candidate, be-
Iieving that the participation of those who
draw government salaries In the differences
OF the party locally is perniciOus. Mr.
Roosevelt is not engaged in building up an
administration party by the use OF patron
age 10 assist one OF several contestants
for senatorships. He believes that the par
~ at large in the States should manage
its own affairs without the interference of
the administration.
There is reason TO believe that men in
both parties who have observed the effect
OF the use OF patronage or who have been
known 10 favor senatorial candidates in

"a DEMOCRATIC FAILING

The Kansas City Star, which is one of the
independent papers of the country, and GER
tainly not in general accord with Repub-
iican ideas, under the caption, "a Demo
cratic Falling" says:
The talk about Admiral SchIey as a cam
didate for President and the movement to
organize Schley clubs in support of that
incidental proposition, eXemplifies a char
acteristic of the Democratic party which
has done more than anything else to keep
II out of power since the civil war. Its pre-
objection for Selling hold of all the acct
dental helps 1T can lay its hands on to re-
store it's fortunes would be amusing if it
were not so humiliating.
Forgetting that, early in 1900, when those
Democrats who were anxious to get rid of
Mr.. Bryan as a candidate mentioned the
name OF Admiral Schley as a candidate only
to receive his prompt avowal that he would
not be the candidate of any party for the
presidency because he had no training in
civil affairs, there are Democrats who
would make him their candidate because
his appearance before the court of inquiry,
which Is tribunal of his own asking. has
created considerable sentiment in his favor
They do not ask whether he is or is not a
Democrat, or whether, if a Democrat, he is
of the Cleveland or Bryan brand; they sim
ply think that he would be an invincible
standard bearer. Considering this trait of
the modern Democratic leaders, the Star
goes on to say:
1t seems to have come to the pass that
the only incentive to zeal or activity in the
Democratic party is some chance circum-
stance which IL is fancied by Its politicians
may be used to cripple the opposition. The
question is not what may the Democratic
party do 10 advance the welfare of the
country, but what means can it devise and
employ for wrestling from the Republican
organization the control of the government.
Few candid Democrats will deny that the
Star has fairly stated the methods and pur-
pose of the Democratic party. 1t took up
Horace Greeley, lifelong foe. in 1872 be-
cause the leaders of the party mistook the
noise of the Liberal Republican leaders for
a general popular acclaim. 1t dropped Mr..
Tilden in 1880 and real issue to take Gen.
Hancock for his military popularity 1t
affirmed sound money and free trade in
1892 and reelected Mr.. Cleveland; in 1896
the party leaders turned their backs upon
its sound money principles, denouncing Mr..
Cleveland as mo Democrat" because they
| imagined that Mr.. Bryan could win. Now
that Mr. Bryan has twice led the party to
disastrous defeat, the leaders in Ohio and
wherever else there is a campaign have re-
jected his offers to speak because they have
at length learned that free coinage of silver
is an impossible issue. And so the party
record for years has been one of lack of

States have usually done so to the injury
of their parties. The dissensions in parties
in the past have been caused more by the
distribution of patronage through those
who represented the administration than
by any other agency. Years ago, prior to
1850. President Buchanan used the patron
age of his office to crush Douglas. Nearly
every federal officeholder fought Douglas in
the election of delegates to the Charleston
convention. Their efforts contributed large
ly TO the breaking up of the convention and
to the nomination of two candidates for the
presidency, which resulted in the election
of Abraham Lincoln by the drawing off of
a faction in every Northern State from
Douglas by the candidacy of Breckenridge.
In New York and other States dissensiOns
incident to the control of federal patronage
have weakened the party. At the present
time there are two Republican factions in
Pennsylvania. For the President to recog-
nize one in his appointments and by his
influence would ALLEVIATE the other. And so
in the States in which senatorial elections
are pending; it is far better for the party
and in harmony with the American idea
Of local government for the President to
stand aloof, trusting that the best man
the policy of noninterference which the
President avows there will be few anti-ad-
minstration Republicans.

OMAHA. Neb., Oct. S1.-Attorney Sears.
Mr. Cudahys private counsel, was the first
witness to-day in the trial of James Gala
han for perjuring himself by testimony
given in he kidnapping trial. Mr.. Sears
testified that he withdrew from an Omaha
bank the sum of $25 600 in sold. which he
placed in the hands of Mr.. Cudahy, with
which TO pay the ransom demanded by the
kidnapers for the return of his son. Samuel
Burris, who sold the famous bay pony to
the alleged kidnapers, was put on the stand
TO identify Callahan one of the parties
to the deal. Mrs. Wittum, who lived i'm the
vicinity OF the alleged hiding place of Cal
lahan and his companion, testified to see
ing them frequently and positively identi-
fed Callahan as one Of the men she saw
driving the pony.
A dozen witnesses were examined to-day
Most OF the testimony went to show that
Callahan had perjured himself by swearing
10 his wherea bouts during the time prior TO
and Immediately following the Cudahy kid

han as one OF the men who was connected
with the dealings for the famous bay pony
which was used TO deliver the letter To Mr.

AN INcuRABLY BAD GOVERNMENT

The sending of a French war fleet &C
companied by a body of land troops, TO
enforce immediate payment of the French
claims against Turkey may be the begin
ming of a series OF important events. The
balance of power in Europe is so delieately
adjusted that it does not take much to dis
turb it at any time, and the relation OF
Turkey to the Eastern question and its
anomalous position as a sort Of ward of
the European powers makes it a prolific
source of trouble. Every one Of the pow
ers has had trouble of some kind with
Turkey during the last few years, and
their combined efforts have not sufficed to
bring about anything like decent admins
tration or the enforcement of promised
reforms. The fact is, the Turkish govern
ment is so hopelessly bankrupt and so
incorrigibly bad that it is almost impossi-
bic to enforce compliance with any of its
promises. and. judging from the past, it
will continue to make trouble for the rest
Of Europe as long as it is permitted to exist
| there. Among recent disturbing events di-
rectly traceable to this cause are the war
with Greece, which was finally settled by
| the Intervention of the powers; the perse-
cution and massacre of the Armenians;
the passage with the United States over
| the refusal to pay. just claims: the capture
| of Miss Stone, and now the dispatch of a
! French fleet to Turkish waters. The alb
duction of Miss Stone is named as one of
! the events for which Turkey is responsible,
/ because whether if occurred on Turkish or
| Bulgarian soil, it was due to Turkish mis-
rule. IL it was done by the connivance of
| the Macedonian committee, it was for the
purpose of calling attention to the struggle
| Macedonia is making against the intolera-
BILE exactions of the Turkish government.
| The simple truth is that Turkey is a scan
DIAL among nations and a nuisance among
| governments. The conditions in Cuba at
the worst period of Spanish rule were never
worse than they are at present in all parts
| of Turkey. The whole civilized world jus
| titled the forcible Intervention of the
| United States to end what the resolution
/ of Congress characterized as 'abhorrent
conditions" in Cuba. 1t will be strange if
the European powers do not soon come to
| see that the conditions in Turkey are alb
| horrent enough to justify combined action
on their part to end them. The expedition
which the French government has just dis
patched to bring the Sultan to terms will
serve as another reminder that Turkey is
a never-ending source of trouble and scan
dial. A government that is so hopelessly
and incurably bad has no right to exist

Col" Thomas c. Campbell, the notorious
criminal lawyer who has made several
visits to this city in futherance of the
scheme to secure the extraditicn of w. s.
Taylor to be tried in Kentucky for alleged
completely in the Goebel murder, says:
The Republican papers that are taking
the side of Messrs. Taylor and Finley are
exhausting all of the adjectives in the vo-
cabulary in denouncing the crime of Czol-
gocZ, but that crime was not half as cow
ardly and dangerous to society as the act
OF a lot of leading politicians in conspiring
together to murder an opponent. Suppose
Tilden had worked up a conspiracy to kill
HayeS-wOuld that have been justifiable
because there was an element of politics
back of it?
If the Journal may be pardoned for Civ
ing respectful attention to anything "Col :"
Campbell says, it will remark that the as
sumption that "a lot of leading politicians
conspired TO murder Mr.. Goebel is purely
gratuitous. There is no evidence of any
such conspiracy. The murder of GoebeI
was dastardly crime, but it was not near
ly as great blot on the honor of Ken
lucky as the judicial vendetta and man
hunt that has been prosecuted for MANY
months past with money appropriated by
