Rallying for Their Opportunity.

The Democrats all over the country
are rallying their forces for reorganiz-
alton on new and timely issues. In
Illinois they have declared with ear
nestness and emphasis for antitrust
laws, a revision of the trust breeding
tariff and the placing of the Philip.
pines on the same basis as Cuba. New
York Democrats made a great call for
unity at the opening of the new Til
den club last week. Grover Cleveland
and David B. Hill were among the
speakers. 1T being the first public po-
litical appearance of the former in
five years. These two most prominent
Democratic leaders united in calling
upon the party to return to the prin-
ciples of the Tilden Democracy and
predicted Democratic triumphs. They
see their opportunity in the growing
revolt of the people against the extor-
tions of trusts which dominate the Re-
publican congress, in the foreign pol
icy of the present administration and
in the reckless waste of public money
shown by the appropriations of the
present Congress, which exceed those
of any session except in war. Ex-
President Cleveland is said to urge
Daniel S. Lamont as a candidate for
governor of New York, believing that
Democrats could unite on him: and
that Democratic success in New York |
this year means Democratic victory in
the country in 1904. Dead issues and |
William J. Bryan are left absolutely
behind in the new movement. Of
course Mr.. Bryan does not like this. |
He declares there is and can be no |
harmony where Grover Cleveland is |
concerned and criticises him and his |
administration in language that is
plain, and insinuates that Cleveland is
looking for presidential denomination
though the latter insists that his days
of political activity are past.
In the meantime the Republican
congress is adding as fast as it can to
the democratic opportunity. 1t
will adjourn early in July without
having done anything for the relief of
Cuba, or for the promotion of that
reciprocity with other nations for which
President Mckinley pleaded in his
last speech: or for modification of
tariff laws which enable the trusts to
work their greedy will upon the home
this in spite of all our
strenuous president can do.
Selling this opportunity, with wise
leadership andunited effort, the Dem
ocratic party should indeed make a
strong fight.

DEMOCRATIC ENDORSEMENT.
Not to be Given to Mr., Clement as They Will
Have a Ticket of Their Own.

The Burlington Free Press has in
terviewed two prominent Democrats.
Felix W. McGettrick of ST. Adams
and Colonel b. b. Smalley Of Burling-
ton, in regard to the probable attitude
of their party toward Mr.. Clement
Mr., McGettrick said: lin my opinion
the Democratic convention will nomi-
nate a full Democratic ticket and en-
ter the campaign on a Democratic
platform as usual Our party has for
20 years demanded the repeal of the
prohibition law and the enactment of
local option high license law Cam
paign after campaign we have exposed
the rottenness of the present law and
arraigned the Republican party for its
high political and corrupt administra-
ton of the law and until thinking
people see the justice of our conten-
ton, and now that as a result of long
and heroic work. Mr.. Clement finds
the popular feeling in favor of adopt
ing the changes We have demanded. he
is apparently quite willing to have our
party delivered over to him in recog-
milton of his conversion to our views
on that one issue, while he still re-
fuses to agree with us on any of the
other numerous issues. equally i'm
portant. Such a surrender would he
cowardly, imbecile politics. "
Col. Smalley said: Mr., Clement
having made the fight upon matter
of principle could hardly do otherwise
than withdraw from the convention
when the principle at issue was abso-
lutely ignored, for more wishy washy,
senseless resolution on the prohibitory
law question could not well have been
drawn. 4 X As to whether Mr..
Clement will be elected, | express no
opinion, although | feel confident that
he will get a very much larger vote
than | thought he could when he an
nounced his candidacy. | am well |
aware that the old time Republican |
ring in this state has for many years |
been despotic in its party management !
and has threatened with everlasting
punishment any one who dared to dis
obey Its orders, but the caucuses in |
The last two months have slaughtered a
good many of the old leaders and given
courage to the younger men in the
party so that they no longer fear as
hey have heretofore. If Mr.. Clement
shows half the ability and energy in
carrying on the canvass for the cleo
ion that he has for the nomination, it
will make the hottest canvass since 1858
when John S. Robinson was elected
governor on practically the same issue.

,ention will take, | have very little
opinion, but | think Mr. Clement will

Henry Ward Beecher's Wit.

On one occasion as Mr.. Beecher was
in the midst of an imprisoned speech
some one attempted to interrupt him
by suddenly growing like cock. The
orator. however, was equal to the occa-
sion. He stopped, listened till the crow
ing ceased, and then, with a look Of
surprise, pulled out his watch. Morn
ing already" he said. MY watch is
only at 10. But there can be no mis-
take about it, The instincts of the low

There was roar of laughter. The
"lower animals" in the gallery collaps-
ed, and Mr.. Beecher was able to re-
sumo as if nothing had occurred.

mont" said my friend who is Just back
from visit to the Green Mountain
state. Here is the way the Elks raise
money for whiskey A member goes
out and buys pint bottle. As he re-
turns with the goods he suddenly
held up by deputy sheriff, and JUS
tice who is in the game is hastily
brought in. The latter convenes court
and the man with the bottle is tried
with the rest of the Elks as witnesses
for the state. OF course the man is
acquitted But here is where the game
is: Each of the witnesses is paid 60
cents witness fee by the court, then the
court and sheriff get out and the wit
nesses pool the money and have a big
time. - Pittsfeld, Mass, Evening
