THURSDAY, MAY %, 1901.

We have before us a copy of The
Forum for May, In which Is printed an
article upon Organism and JefIer'
sonian Democracy" written by Mr..
Albert Watkins, who has been for a
number OF years a townsman OF Mr.
BRYAN. The writer Is eminently fan
in dealing with his subject. Although
a dissenter from the latter day Demo.
cracy as expounded by its greatest
apostle, Mr.. Bryan, the writer OF the
Forum article shows that Mr.. Bryan
in seeking the removal of certain OBJ
stacles which stand in the way Of
representative government, pursues
the course marked out by Jefferson
and followed by Jackson, Tilden and
Cleveland; but says:
Both Jefferson and Jackson lived in very
primitive social conditions compared tt
those IN which Mr. Bryan II undertaking tC
apply their political aud social notions
They could with confidence appeal TO the
'pIaln people" then, because there were few
of nny q, her class 10 oppose or control them
They did not take into account the coming
supremacy OF organized capital, much more
potent IN It's control OF the plain people
Than Mr.. hrynn's ldoalistic notions OF In.
diyidual liberty, because they had not
dreamed OF the revolutionary advent OF
steam and electricity, or the teeming popu-
laton which has been their concomitant
Mr.. Watkins in closing his article
thus refers to existing political con

DEMOCRACY'S OPPORTUNITY

That there exists very serious d.
vision In the Republican household In
Wisconsin becomes more apporont
day by day. The present condition
of affairs Is well stated by that mild
tempered editor, r.. ID. Coe, Of The
Whitewater Register, and late chair
man of the Republican state central
committee. In the last issue of his
paper be says;
"Tho legislature In the Legitimate oNer-
else of ts functions, considered the question
submitted by the convention on Its merlts
listened to the soborly expressed thought OF
It's constituents, aud passed u primary ciec-
ton bill which would have tested the prln-
ciple on bAsls that was 1T once safe and cd
ucnlionnl. This measure the governor We
,tocd, AS he had u right to do; but he did
also that which he had no right to do; he ns-
sailed In vltupcrntIyc language the motives
of the supporters OF the bill, denounced the
methods employed IN securing Its passage,
and In general way scoldcd the offending
senators and nsAcmhlymon ~ If he we're

vote Of ~ 10 g. protested In strong but dig
nihod language against the charges made by
the governor affecting their personal and Of
hclal honor, and placed IL on record side by
side with the document In which they were
attacked, "ThC people" VIII give tho matter
their careful consideration during the COM
ing months and we have no fear that their
representatives In the senate and assembly
viii not be fully sustained"
There would be hope for putting an
end to Republican supremacy In Wis
consin were Democrats united and
ready to avail themselves of the OPP
portunity which has come to them
through Republican shortsightedness
and folly.
1t Is not, however, upon the weak
ness of the opposition, but upon the
strength of Democracy that Demo
Gratis must rely for victory. LaFol-
lette triumphed in his campaign for
governor in much the same way rs
Bryan carried of the Democratic
nomination for president in 1896.
The logic Of events has shown that
Bryan's triumph was but temporary
because he did not, and does not,
stand for what Is conservative aud
safe in Democracy; and LaFollette
anu us lOlloNCEs nave hlGtuuN learn
ed that the reforms which they de-
manded are not regarded by the
people rs reforms at all The lesson
that Democrats should lay to heart,
and profit by, is, that however much
this or that party may demand imagin-
AIRY reforms, the people demand good
conservative government, and believe
that 1t can be best secured by choos-
ing for officials and leaders men of
sound and safe ideas, who take the
