A Ticket and a Platform.

The Indianapolis Sentinel suggests
as a national democratic ticket in
1904:
For President-Grover Cleveland of
New Jersey.
For Vice William j.
Bryan of Nebraska,
The suggestion is a good one. A
little trouble might arise in patching
up platform on which such a combi-
nation wonld stand at one and the
same time, but democratic leadership
being in a compromising mood what
is the matter with adopting the fol-
lowing recent expression of both peer
less leaders as the party shibboleth?
mo one here should be offended by
the suggestion that the democratic
party's capital and prospects have
been seriously impaired since Mr.. Til
den was elected president. Then and
afterward northern democratic states
were not curiosities, northern demo.
cratic senators, now practically ex-
tinct, now almost never seen, were
frequently encountered. An
other party may thrive on the ever
shifting treatment of the ever-Shift-
ing methods of popular restlessness,
or by an inSincere play upon nothing
but popular prejudice and selfish
anticipation, but the democratic party
never. 1 want to see before 1 die
the restoration to perfect health and
supremacy democracy true to itself,
interrupted by claIlOr. unmoved by
the gusts of popular passion, and un-
corrupted by offers of strange alliance.
Grover Cleveland.
Are you opposed to giving the con-
troll of the party organization into the
hands of the skulkers and shirkers
who sold out the democracy in 1896
and 1900, and who seek now to secure
the leadership of the party they be-
trayed?"- William j. Bryan.

The worst punishment that Estes
G. Rathbone can receive is the public
sentiment he meets that condemns his
crime. But Nicely does not seem to
suffer from it. He is of the tough
hide that has been tanned to endure
the condemnation by years of rascal
ity. We have far more sympathy for
Rathbone for his sensitiveness, and
because Of his evident desire that he
be given chance to prove bis inno-
cence.-Elkhart Review.

- The celebrated reform administra-
tion of Mayor Tom L. johnson of
Cleveland seems even more fruitful in
scandals than an ordinary political
administration so despised of reform
ers. The latest is the production. at
a council meeting by reform alder
man of 81. 900 with which he asserted
corporation had tried to buy his
vote. Yet if the alderman was real
reformer how was it that anybody
should have even dared to try to
bride him:

means plutocracy. Every speech

David B. Hill says the American
people want to be relieved Of high pri-
ces. This Is doubtful statement.
The farmers are willing to take high
prices for hogs, cattle, grain and all
other farm products and the laborers
are not anxious to be relieved OF their
wages. The sum total CT the results
of the last democratic administration
was to reduce prices and wages, and 1t
has been the result of every democra-
tic administration this country ever
had.

Bishop of the Episcopal Church Will
Enforce Rule Strictly.
Special to Times-Republican.
Davenport, Oct. 2.-Bishop Morrison
of the NJ. e. church will hereafter
pursue a new course with reference to
the marriage of divorced persons. In a
circular letter just issued to the clergy
and laity of the Iowa Episcopal church.
he announces that hereafter he will not
go behind the record of the courts in
divorce cases. Divorced persons who
have secured DEGREES on any other
ground but infidelity are prohibited
from marrying again. The practice of
hearing testimony of infidelity at the
request of the Divorce, who has failed
to plead statutory grounds. is abol-
ished.
"All Christians are agreed" writes
the bishop, "that the growing laxity
among the American people in the mat
ter Of divorce needs rebuke, and ought
to be checked. No man who has been
divorced and remarked" he adds,
should allow himself to be elected to-
an Office in the church. Should divor-
Gees be married outside the church,
their case must be fully investigated as
provided by the canons, before they are
admitted to communion"
