Colonel Hsrbsr.s Intentions.

New Bedford (Mass.) Standard:
 Our estimate of the addresses of Hi lary A. Herbert of Alabama, which some of our short-sighted Republican contemporaries are simple enough to commend is justified bS The Savannah News. a Democratic newspaper which says that MT. Herbert has no inten- tion of giving aid and comfort to the Republicans or of joining the Republi- can party" All that he aims at, ~ac- cording to The News. which is in nc way likely to misrepresent him, Is to get the Democratic party into a posi- ton to win in 1904. Apparently some of the Republican newspapers of this country are entirely willing to help him or are hoodwinked by what they foolishly consider the immediate in- terests of the party. In no other way can we account for the complacency and even endorsement with which his remarks on the basis of civil rights and the granting of the suffrage are received. MT. Herbert makes a speech in which he goes directly counter to all the doctrines of the Republican party as those doctrines were set forth by it's found ..%. an1 Republic news papers contradict him so feebly that the contradiction has no force what ever or they commend him for his sen sible grasp of the situa Ion. How they think this Is going to help the party is past all comprehension; and they may be sure enough that Colonel Herbert doesn't think 1t is going tC help any other party than his own.
