A TIMELY WARNING.
David b. Hills Advice to the Democ-
racy Contains Much That Is
Significant.

There We're some plain, incontro-
vertible facts stated in ST. Clair Nc
Kelway's letter to the Manhattan
club, which Mr.. Hill had completely
ignored when he prepared his plan
for reconstructing the democracy by
making it, instead of party of no
definite policy, party of all policies
that it has had since the sixties, says
the Albany Journal.
Mr.. McKelway has his eyes open
to conditions. He has learned wis
dom from the sad experience of his
party's past. He knows that the dem
ocratic party cannot ever hope to
win success by resurrecting issues
that are dead, by continuing the pro-
mitigation of doctrines which the
people have rejected. He understands
that in country whose government
is for and by the people, party that
asks to be intrusted with the man
agement of the peoples affairs must
give the people what they want, that
support by trying to force upon
them what it wants and they do not.
Mr.. McKelway accepts the facts
that the people are committed to
the gold standard, and to expansion,
that they are determined that free
capital as well as free labor shall
have it's rights, that they want an
interoceanic canal, navy befitting
the country's greatness, and re-
stored commerce, and he asserts
without qualification that the party
which will secure to them these
things will be intrusted by them

INs1NCER1TY OF DEMOCRATS.
Conviction of the Party Before the
American People by Its Utter
Unreliability.

The democratic members of the
United States senate have been eX-
tremely loud and constant in their
professions of benevolent intentions
toward the Filipinos. They have in
sisted that the administration and
the republican party have been OPP
pressing the Filipinos. They have
denied the right of congress to inn
pose discriminating taxes upon the
products of any part of the national
domain. They have held that the
Filipinos must be either citizens or
subjects. On the theory of citizen
ship they have detained against
taxing them without giving them rep
resentation, says the Chicago Inter
Ocean.
A few days ago the opportunity
was presented to the indignant demo-
cratic senators to prove their be-
nevolence to the Filipinos. A bill
was to be voted on to encourage Phil
ippine industry by renting 25 per
cent. of our tariff on island products,
and to remit certain insular taxes
upon such products when imported
into the United States. Senator For
alser and % other republican sena-
tors thought this concession was not
enough, and that the Filipinos de-
served more liberal treatment. Sen
ator Foraker moved to amend the
bill by making the reduction in our
tariff so per cent.
How then did the democratic sena-
tors live up to their professions OF
sympathy and benevolence and make
their deeds square with their words

Too Low an Estimate.

Hon. George A. Marden, assistant United
States treasurer for Boston, told an anus
ing story to the Young Mems League of the
West Medford Baptist church the other
evening. He said fellow and girl came
into the Office one day awhile ago and that
substantially the following conversation
ensued:
81 suppose you think the young lady is
worth her weight in gold, don't you?"
II certainly do the young man replied,
with smile and flush.
How much do you weigh?" Mr.. Marden
asked the girl.
"A hundred and six pounds" she said.
After little figuring the assistant treas
urer spoke,up again.
'Your girl is worth just $2sOOO."
No, sir! She's worth million!'

with power, while the party that
would keep from them the things
mentioned which they desire will be
relegated to obscurity.
And Mr.. Hill wants the party to
declare for bimetallism, against ex-
pansion, against the right of capital
to engage in large industrial enter
prises He wants it to take up again
the tinllering with the tariff that was
responsible for the last period of
commercial and industrial depression
through which the country passed.
1t is almost a wonder that he does
not go little farther back into the
past and call for resurrection of the
democracy's declaration that the war
for the preservation of the union was
failure and that reconstruction
was unconstitutional.
Mr.. Hill has shown himself to be a
man as dangerous to the country's
interests as Mr.. Bryan was in 1896
and again in 1900. The rumor that
Mr.. Bryan favors his candidacy in
1904 is denied, but it would not have
been strange, if true, if we supposed
that Mr.. Bryan himself had re-
nounced his ambition. Mr.. Hill has
shown himself to be man after Mr..
Bryan's own heart.
1t is well that the people of the
United States have received timely
warning. They will have ample time

A Poverty-stricken queen.

Partly owing to the fact that she was

because she was generous with the little

debt and the sums she spent were ridicu-

greatest amount expended at any one time.
Her gowns were mended and turned and
new waists were made for them, as is shown

San Francisco, Nov. 5.-The news apparently, this morning, indicate that Geo. c. Pardee has been elected. Lane, his democratic opponent, car ried San Francisco by 9,556 majority, but that is not enough to offset the heavy republican vote in the country. Pardee's majority in the state will probably be over 5000. The entire republican state ticket will undOubt- emly be elected. The republicans will have big majority in the legis- lature, which will elect a successor to U. $. Senator Perkins whose term ex- pires. For congress the democrats and union labor parties, which fused in San Francisco, elected E. J. Liver nash over Kahn, incumbent in the fourth, and William Wynn to sue ceed Loud in the fifth district. In the first and second districts there is some doubt as to results on the meager re- turns thus far received with the ad- vantage probably favorable to the republican candidates.

COUNTY ELECTION.
Republicans Elect a Sheriff, District Attorney and Possibly One or
 Two Others.

Returns have been received from over half of the precincts of the county and from all of the larger and most important ones- From these a fairly accurate approximate can be made of the result, which will be as follows:
 R. E. Morrison will have a majority of from 250 to 400 in the county.
 Joe Roberts will have a majority of from 600 to 800 in the county for sheriff.
 E. S. Clark is elected district at torney by majority of from 3Oo>to 500.
 The vote for councilman is close with about equal chances for both candidates.
 For the assembly there is also close vote between F. A. Tritle, jr., and Barrow, the latter being in the lead with the returns to date.
 Dan Campbell is only few votes behind Sinclair for supervisor with chances of the precincts to hear from yet overcoming this and putting him ahead.
 The rest of the democratic candi- dates have safe majorities which can not possibly be overcome, Storm be- ing in the lead, Jolly second, Farley third and c. P Hicks fourth on the list in the total vote.
