The Astoria (Ore. Herald, which is
classed as republican paper, makes
the following statement, which is GER
tainly remarkable coming from such
q source:
''The defeat of William Jennings
Bryan and that wing of the democratic
party pOrtends the death of the demo-
cratic party in the United States.
-Four years fromnow party will spring
up that will unite all the farming and
labor vote solidly, and that party will
be the socialist party. Socialism is
gaining wonderful foothold in this
country. 1t is not, as many believe,
akin to anarchy. There is wide d.
vergence. The Socialist party stands
for the masses. It is the only way to
equalize business between the labor
ing man and the wealthy classes. 1t
means the government ownership OF
railroads and telegraph lines, and mu-
nicipal ownership of all corporations
that furnish power and light to cities.
1t is the only method that will har-
monte the conflicting interests be-
tween capital and labor and promote
general prosperity in this country
Four years from now, the contest will
be between the socialist and the repub.
5llcan parties, with chances III favor 81

The St. Paul Pioneer Press chuckles
"The selection of Gen. Clapp will
commend itself to the approval of the
republicans of Minnesota probably in
gr+ alter degree than any other nom
inatiOn that could have been made. -
The Minneapolis Times, after blam-
ing Lowry for Evans defeat, says:
Concerning the nominee, Moses E.
Clapp, there is not much to say. The
people of the state would feel more
kindly to him had they not been ap-
prised of the fact that before the death
of Mr.. Davis he was fixed upon by
certain corporate interests as the
wearer of the toga; had it not been
that he was recognized as the choice
of that would-be Warwick. Mr.. James
J. Hill of the Great Northern Rail-
way. Mr.. Clapp's republicanism has
been open to question but with that
The Times does not pretend to con-
Germ itself. What deals and trades
and promises Mr.. Clapp found it nee
essary to make in order to secure the
support of Mr.. Tawney and others OF
that ilk, hardly constitute grounds
for an Indictment against him Mr..
Clapp and his friends are politicians
pure and simple and, being in the
fight to win, doubtless regard them.
selves as free from criticism so long
as they abide by the ethics of parti~
san conflict
The St. Paul Globe, after stating
that it's opinion had not been sought,
is pleased:
'He is essentially and in all re.
spects good man. He is worthy oil
the state in which he has won so much
of public and professional distinc,
tion."
The Minneapolis Tribune, whicl
supported Lowry, accepts the result
grudgingly. It says:
''That he will not be the power that
Low y would have been in the United
States senate goes without saying"
The St. Paul Disp patch, which sup.
ported the street railway magnate,
discreetly says nothing directly, but
we find this innuendo:
almost the entire credit of the
nomination of Moses 3. Clapp to the
United States senate belongs to Oar
Reese, Fred Schiffman and Eli War.
ner, with such ,sistance as could be
rendered by the inconsistencies of Tim
Sheehan in the state senate. It is we'll
known that Gov. Van SAINT holds these
same gentlemen in high esteem, not
only for support in the immediate
past, but at the lime when David M.
Clough was governor. It is not to he
denied that for these services Eli " ar
ner, as The report goes, is to be the
next oil inspector, or is to be permit
ted to name that functionary.
The Minneapolis Journal was a
staunch Evans supporter, and blames
his defeat to the home people who lent
their influence to Lowry. But resolv-
ing not to cry over split milk it says:
"While regretting the fact that Min
neapolis is again the loser by her Pc
culiar kind of politics, the choice is
one to which the Journal is disposed
to take no exceptions. Mr.. Clapp is
man of acknowledged ability, and
will undoubtedly make an excellent
SENATOR"
The Daily News of St. Paul sup
ported Clapp in the interests of St..
Paul and feels endorsed.

c0LoRADo'S SENATORS.

Perhaps never before has a United
States senator who came up for re-
election been so numerically turned
down as was Senator w olcott of Cole
RADIO. Tom Patterson, editor of the
Rocky Mountain News, who was chair
man of the Peoples National conven-
ton at Sioux Falls, received ninety
one votes to Wolcott's eight in the
legislature. Wolcott turned traitor
to the interests of his state in order to
bask in the smiles of the national ad-
ministration and he had become as
heartily detested by the common folk
of his state as skunk is hated by a
Minnesota farmer. It is said that
Mckinley will place him in the for
eign diplomatic service. It will be re-
membered that the demonstration
which was heralded throughout the
country as an attack upon Gov. Roose-
welt during the campaign was in real.
ity aimed at Wolcott in whose COM
pany Roosevelt appeared. The new
Senator Patterson announces that
he will act with the democrats in con-
gress, in the following words:
''The principles of the Kansas City
platform are those in the main for
which the peoples and silver repub.
lican parties have commended. They
are the principles upon which our
uroat rapu hi liz. ic founded op6 hv IN
holding which our republican system
of government can alone be main
tanned. Yet these principles must be
fought for by democrats and against
those who call themselves democrats.
l believe the fight for them can be
most successfully made within the
democratic ranks. Those who are
outside of them are outside of the
Notifications and are but helpless
lookers-on. I can see no prese Mt hope
for the triumph of the principles of
the Kansas City platform except
through the democratic party

Just as there is strong sentiment
in this country against the continu-
ance of the Philippine war, so is there
a strong party in England opposed to
the prosecution of the Boer war.
Thursday dispate hes give the follow
ing utterance from Lord Coleridge as
an excuse for not attending political
meeting:

the policy which brought it about, the
mode in which it is conducted and the
unseeming excitement over the defeat
of handful of peasants defending
their country at the hands of ten times
their numbers of trained soldiers,
backed by the wealth of England.

nouncing Lord Co]eridge as traitor.

"Salem, Oregon, Jan. H.-Both
houses of the legislature have passed
a resolution submitting to the voters
the initiative and referendum amend
ment.'
Thus Oregon occupies the proud dis
tinction of being the pioneer in the
greatest modern reform.
The initiative and referendum will
destroy the job of the politician, and
when the people learn to vote intelli-
gently, not on men but on measures, it
will be a long stride towards perfect
government. Representative legisla-
ton must yield to direct legislation.-

The burning OF negro in Kansas
will restore the death penalty in that
state. At least, so says the governor.
There are in the neighborhood of 45

governor has had nerve enough to
sign that number of death warrants.

1.-The army authorities are fearful
that the abolition of the canteen will

grade?

Wolfer, ct. al, were two years ago?
How fortunate" the state had been
to be able to retain their services
when their "expertness''' could de-
mand so much higher wages elsewhere,
etc. It now appears that Clausen
would be satisfied to secure the secre-
tary ship of the railroad commission
and would be still more pleased to be
re-instated as chief inspector. Also
that Wolfer is available for warden
of the penitentiary. The old crowd
with but few exceptions are clamoring
for their old berths and few have SO

According 20 the accepted theory of
the republican press there is now no
opposition to the republican party OF
any consequence. 1t therefore, seems
strange that there should be such a
demand to change the election law in
respect to the voting for pres dental
electors. Several city exchanges sug-
gest that in close contest in this
state under the present system some
democratic electors might be chosen.
