THE THIRD PARTY.

Faihered by Lee Meriwether, the S..
Louis boiler, who thought be was big
enough to defeat the regular demo-
erstic nominee tor mayor in the last
St. Louis election, there was born
Wednesday in Kansas City s new
party. The platform Of the party as
published, has some few good things in
il, but all Of il that is good can be
secured IN the ranks Of the old reliable
democratic party. There is about as
much use for q third party in the
United States today as there is for a
fifth wheel on : wagon. Some men
get 1t into their heads thai they are
born leaders and that their merits are
not recognized in the great political
parties of the country. They have
hobbies and because o or the other
of the leading parties will not take up
their hobbies, they must needs a a
third party which is usually made up
Of disgruntled members of the OLD
parties who have grievances and these
grievances are usually the failure OF the
parties to take them up and give them
q life tenure o. some lucrative Office.
1t may be set down as a general
principle that the man or class Of men
who have q principle or political doc
trine of real merit car get one or the
O'her of the leading parties to take Up
and advocate their doctrine and If they
cannot gain recognition in the ranks of
their party IT may be safely concluded
that they do not deserve it.
But there will always be political
sore heads aud they will continue to
form third or fourth parties q 1t is
probably just as well that 1t is so. A
side show party affords these dissatis.
fled ones the opportunity of airing their
vanity and q campaign or two generally
works a permanent cure.

WHAT THE END WOULD BE.

While We regret that our govern
ment, under 3 mistaken policy, has
done 4 great injustice to the Philippine
island, the main thing to be considered
in the Philippine matter Is the reflex
action OF the present policy upon the
institutions Of our own government. II
might makes right in our treatment Of
the Philippine islands, the same policy
might be adopted by the dominant
party st home, and the rights Of the
minority entirely ignored. With the
trusts and the money barons on the one
side the rights of the masses would be
so completely ignored that breathing 8
little pure sir would be done only by
the permission Of our mighty tyrsnts,
the trusts.

CHAIRMAN JONES on THE CAM
PAIGN OF 1904,

~
In forecasting the issues of the cam
paign of 1904, Senator Jones, CHAIR
man of the national democratic COM
mittee, says that the next battle will
be fought over the Philippine question.
The decision of the supreme court, he
says, did moi settle the Philippine
question, but only put it 10 the hands
of congress and there the tghl will be
started. If the republican msjority in
congress %dnregards the principles of
liberty and justice upon which this
government Is founded, the democrats
will fight on that line TO the bitter end
and will carry the cause before the
people in 1904.
Senator Jones Is on the right track
and when the people grasp the full
meaning Of the republican policy and
realize how great . menace it is to the
permanency and safety Of our national
liberties the conservative element Of the
republican party will unite with the
democrats IN RELOCATING the republi.

THAT COUNTERvAILING DUTY,

Secretary of the Treasury Gage
asserts that the sugar trust did not
know that the couutervailiDg duty was
under consideration until after it bad
been imposed, but be does not deny
that the duty vas for the benefit OF the
sugar trust. 1t would appear on the
face Of the evidence that the Russian
minister was hewing close to the truth
in the case IN his assertion that the
duty was imposed as q financial return
for the trusts liberal investment in the
Mckinley campaign fund.
In causing a feeling Of trade resent
ment in Russia, which jeopardizes
much larger interests than those of the
sugar trust, Secretary Gage has but
followed the policy of the republican
party in taking care Of the trusts first,
last and all the time, regardless of the
general welfare OF the country. This
is but another instance that proves the
necessity Of voting the trust party out
Of power.

Corn King Philips, OF Chicago,
holds out glowing prospects for the
corn producers Of the United States.
In q cen interview IN New York he
says, ''Il is easy to send the price Of
corn up because the demand for it is
growing faster than the supply. Ex-
portation is not at all necessary, the
uses OF corr are so much more numer.
ous than heretofore. He predicts that
September corn will sell at 80 cents
and October corn at S2 cents. His
late success in judging OF the corn
market lends added weight to his
predictions, and roseate prospects are
held out before our farmers. High
priced cattle and hogs and 30 cents
for corn make him feel that life is
worth living.
