PERPLEXED DEMOCRATS.
Leaders Apparently Contemplating
the Adoption of Republican
Policies.

At the recent democratic love feast
in New York an attempt was made to
harmonic the Cleveland and Bryan
factions by invoking memories of Til
den. Bourke Cochran spoke eloquent
Iy of the leadership of the past when
Samuel J. Tilden was a force in poll
tics, forgetful of the fact that the pol
icy urged by Tilden was repudiated by
democrats and adopted by republicans,
says the Chicago Inter Ocean.
William c. Whitney, however, who
was closely associated with Tilden,
and who advocated a vigorous naval
policy when Tiden was pleading for
coast defenses, does not see any eff
ficacy in platitudes about Tilden ideals,
or about the leadership of the past.
He is looking to the future and hoping
that the democratic party may find a
Mckinley or Roosevelt to lead it in
fight for modern ideas.
Another equally prominent New
York democrat is reported to maintain
that if the democracy were to go to the
country under strong leadership upon
the issues presented in the last address
of William Mckinley at Buffalo they
would solve the problem of democratic
unity.
The astonishing thing about all this
is that the democrats who are look
ing to the leadership and the tradi-
tions of the past, and those who are
looking to new leadership in the fu-
ture, both contemplate the adoption
of republican policies. The Tilden
policy of 1885 was the use of the sur
plus in the treasury to build coast de-
fenses, and to prepase to support by
force of arms, if need be, the Monroe
doctrine.
The policy was not adopted by the
democrats. but was in due time taken
up by the republicans, and we have
now, not only line of coast defenses,
but a more powerful navy than even
Mr.. Whitney contemplated. Moreover,
the policy enunciated by President Nc
Kinley in his address at Buffalo was
the same as declared by Mr.. Roosevelt
in his address at Minneapolis. and it is
the same policy for which President
Roosevelt now stands.
The democrats who look forward, as
we'll as those who have their eyes fixed
on the past, have, then, nothing better
to offer in the way of a national policy
than that represented by the present
republican administration. There is
hardly a parallel in party history to
this situation.

DRIFT OF OPINION.

QUESTION OF TITLE.
The Senate's IsthmIan Commission
Argues Ii.

Washington, March Ex-senator
Morgan, from the committee on 18TH
mian canals, has presented to the
senate the majority and minority re-
ports of that committee ON the ques-
tion of the validity of the title of the
new Panama Canal Co. and its right
to transfer the Panama canal prop
erty to the United States for $40, ,O0O,-
600.
The objections of the majority to
the title held by that company are
based largely on the relations of the
canal company to the governments
of France and Colombia, but the
committee also discusses at length
many other phases of the question.
Among these is the relation of the
shareholders who subscribed $780,
100000 to the old Panama Co.. whose
interests, the report holds, cannot be
lightly regarded. On this point the
report says:
"rhe spectacle of the United States
congress authorizing the president,
as the agent of our government, to
conduct a trade with such a corpor-
alton (the new Panama Coz without
consulting France as to the clam of
independence it (the new Panama
Coz asserts, will be entirely new in
the history of nations and its conse-
quences cannot be lightly disre-
garded.
among these is the serious danger
of the United States being drawn
into disagreeable relations with
large and influential body of the peo-
pie of France whose friendship for
us has been cherished during the en-
tire life of our republic, and had It's
origin in magnanimous sacrifices for
our country when this government
was in the travail of it's birth. I'm
fortunately the report of the isth-
mian canal commission reveals the
fact that the men who make us the
offer are chief among those who de-
frauded these 100000 or 100000
Frenchmen of $250,0GO,O00.'
The minority report completely up
holds the title of the New Panama
Co.

BRYAN DEPRECATES HILL.
Not in Sympathy with the Cloud
Raising Trumpeter of the
Empire state.

Mr. Bryan considers the latest
epoch-malling appearance of Mr.. Hill
in The Commoner and indicates that
he is not deeply impressed thereby.
He has, of course, reasons personal and
peculiar for his lack of sympathy. but
some of his opinions will be pretty gen
orally shared by his countrymen, for
Mr.. Hill has ceased to be a novelty as
an epoch-maker. His great speeches
are found always to resolve themselves
into reverberating sound. They are so
vague and illusory as to suggest the
simile employed in a recent review of
a work by Victor Hugo: "When it is
all ended and one looks back it is as if
one tried to recall the shapes and col
ors of an avalanche of clouds seen by
night over a wide and tossing sea"
If Mr.. Hill has not quite all of Hugo's
eloquence he is a cloud raiser in his
own way and more given to clangor and
clamor than to sense, says the Chicago
Record-lIerald The famous 81 am a
democrat" never had any meaning 1t
was crude clap-trap. And Bryan is
wholly justified in saying that Hills po-
sition on the money question is that of
an artful dodger. The speech at the
Manhattan club at New York is clear
case of dodge itself, and it recalls the
time when most of the politicians were
lodging and Hill was trying to be the
most artful of them all.
He then discovered the expression
''free bimetallic coinage" and used it
in one of the epoch-making addresses.
1t was considered a very pretty patent
by the Hill claque of that day, but the
people are not captivated by mere eva
sion, and even the politicians have out
lived evasion on the money question
since a straight issue was made of it.
When the ex-senator speaks now of
declaration ''in favor of the general
principle of bimetallism" he talks like
ghost suddenly sprung upon us out
of the dead past.

WILL BE WOUND UP.
A "Tontine Associations: Is Ordered
to Cease BuSincss-Was ii Gold Mine
for It's NInnngers.

Minneapolis, Mimi, March 21.-
Judge McGhee in an order filed
Thursday dissolved the Tontine Say
ings association. The charter and
articles of incorporation are declared
forfeited. George p. Flannery, at
torney. has been appointed receiver
and directed to take charge of the
company's effects and convert them
into cash.
According to the memorandum,
when the present company was re-or-
ganiZed, May 4, 1898, there was prac-
tically deficit of S23,52 from its
predecessor. 1t has done tremend-
ous business since then. but upwards
of 90 per cent has been outside of the
state. Owing to the ''endless chain"
features of the company's plan, the.
liability grew each year. Up to De
cember Z, 1901. the memorandum
says, the deficit had increased in
three years, seven months and three
days from $23,52O, to 81 ,292.29O.
From Judge McGhee's memoran-
dunn it appears that the five directors
of the association. on paid up cap
ital of only $3.50, received in 1901
the sum of $4,000 in dividends and
So. 5000 in the same way in the first
30 daVS of 1902.
