Of inconsistent views expressed by members
of the Court, are without parallel in our
judicial history. Until some reasonable con-
sistency and unanimity OF opinion is reach.
ed by the Court upon the questions brought
up by what are called the "insular cases."
we can hardly expect the Courts conclu-
sions to be final and beyond revision"
Mr. Littlefeld was speaking as lawyer
to lawyers, and his words have therefore a
more important significance than If they
were mere expression Of political opinion
His views are shared by some OF the most
distinguished members of the legal profes.
sion, including lifelong Republicans. 1t
may be that the Supreme Court, as has been
intmated, has some surprises in store for
those who believe it is irrevocaoly commit
ted to the expansion policy. Whatever the
fact may turn out to be, it is encouraging to
find lawyer of Mr. Littlefeld's ability ex-
pressing the hope that "the greatest court in
Chrislendom will determine the law of the
land in accordance with correct principles"
Another distinguished lawyer and Repub-
lican, ex Senator Edmunds, of Vermont,
holds views substantially in accord with
Mr.. Littlefield's. Those Republicans who
believe that the question of expansion has
been finally settled by the Supreme Courts
decisions will be surprised TO find that some
of the abest men in their party take issue
with them. The issue now is largely one
of law, and it is interesting to know that
lawyers still regard it as an open CUES.

!STEADFAST TO FUNDAMENTAL
PRINCIPLES.

In the presidential campaign of 1904 the
Democratic party, 1t now seems likely, will
be found organized, neither reorganized nor
disorganized, on a sound Democratic basis,
and fully equipped for victory in the cause
of the people.
The population Of American principles
so distinctly made within the past three
years by the Republican party leaves the
Democratic party alone representative OF
the principles upon which the American
government was established.
Trustism, Imperialism, a colonial policy
modelled almost identicaly upon that OF
Great Britain, confessed determination 10
put into effect the Hamilton theory of a
strongly centralized Federal government, a
denial OF the rights of the people in order
that privileged caste may be made richer
as the people become poorer, are the things
for which present.day Republicanism stands.
The menace OF these things must be- removed
by the removal of the Republican party from
power.

does not need to make bid for the support
Of any outside party OF element OF popula
tion. 1t needs only to maintain Demo.
cratic allegiance to the fundamental truths
Of Democracy.
These truths demand the resisting of the
trust evil, the forbidding of the government
of aliens by force against the consent of the
governed, faithful observance of the Amer.
lean principle of "equal rights to all, special
privileges to none" and national govern.
ment that shall not n effect be Federal
monarchy on the Hamilton basis.
The demand for the suppression of these
evil tendencies now so apparent In Repub-
lican policies must be met for the peoples
sake. The Democratic party will take It's
rghtlul place us the party Of the people.
There has never been a palmer duty
before American Democracy. There has
never been greater promise Of Democratic
victory in behalf of the common people
All that is necessary for victory is that the
Democratic party shall obey the popular
demand in nominees and declarations Of
principle.

THE SENA TOR FROM MISSOURI.

THE SENAT TOR FROM MISSOURI.
Senator Vest has declared, and there is no
doubt of bis sincerity, Chat he will retire
from public life at the end of his present
term in the Senate.
II is easy to say that there is no man whose
place cannot be filled that men come and
go, and that the general machinery does not
stop. But how do we known There have
been revusions in political affairs and great
Governments have been broken up. Per
haps these failures have been on account Of
the disappearance from public life Of men
like Vest. The Missouri senator could not
hold up the republic alone. He is one of
those, however, upon whom the country can
depend. lie is part of the best there is in
public life and politics.
Mr.. Vest is Democrat, of course, and an
ardent one. He is not mere party man,
though. He takes broad views OF things
and has the respect and admiration OF fair
aud thoughtful men in both parties. 1t is
one of the high qualities of the United States
Senate that ii has men of both parties
VINO can rise TO an occasion without drag.
glng petty prejudces along with them,
and who do not injure their cause by de
barring the support Of a constituency be.
yond line which is chiefly imaginary.
We do not undertake to say that the coun-
try will go TO destruction when George Ora
ham Vest retires from the Senate; but there
will lie nobody who will be more sadly
missed. The people like to see brainy man
in position where brains ought TO be the
commanding commodity. The Senate is not
prosy when Vest speaks. His speeches are
gems in thought, expression and earnest
ness, and his splendid accomplishments in
running debate have too little opportunity
1t is not the everyday Senator who courts
colloquy with him.
Mr. Vest may retire, and some able man
like Governor Stone may take his place, but
anyhow what he has done should always
be treasured as gracious memory and an
inspiration for Senators of the future who
may desire to be known beyond the lids OF
the current biographical dictionary OF Con-
gress.

A TROUBLESOME REPUBLICAN,

n IHOUDLhoOMh hhf UDLICAN.
Representative Littlefleld, of Maine, is a
Republican who gives his party friends in
the House Of Representatives great deal
of trouble by his independence. When the
Porto Rican tariff bill was introduced in
the House, Mr.. Littlefeld denounced IL in
unmeasured terms, On other issues-nota
bly, In respect TO the expansion issue-he is
out OF touch with Republican sentiment
Notwithstanding this TACT, the Maine Con
gresham seems TO be solid with his con
stituents, and they re-elect him 10 Congress
without asking him to adapt his views to
party platforms.
Last week Mr. Littlefeld gave another
evidence Of bis independence. He delivered
the annual address before the American
Bar Association, and in the course Of his
remarks dissented strongly from the con-
illusions OF the majority OF the Supneme
Court Justices In their decisions In the ain.
