(Dem) says: Human nature is ever
ana everywhere the same. Give
party an inch it will take an ell. All
the sharp rascals get into the dominant
party. After awhile there is no law
except the will of the caucus; and the
caucus is dominated by the corrupt
implacable, the radical rogue, who
plays upon the passions of the multi
tude whilst he invokes the discipline
of the rank and file. External vigilance
is the price of liberty. But, even eter-
nal vigilance will be cheated if the
people fail of their duty to make their
power felt wherever wrong appears In
this fight the Democratic party is fight

The New Orleans Picayune (Dem.)
says: "All the attempts in the courts
to punish the meat trust, or to force
down its prices by law, will fail. be-
cause there is no law to prevent the
raising of prices in such cases. Never
theless, laws against trusts and COM
binations are possible, provided they be
directed against every sort of combi-
nation formed to control, in class or
private interests, any articles of daily
use or any necessary service. No dis
ordinations are allowable in such case.

else the functions of ordinary common
sense, they will simply throw away the
grandest opportunity presented them

THE WEATHER OUTLoOK.

We may reasonably expect cooler
weather in this section of the coun-
try within the next few days, though
it has not been unusually warm for
this season of the year When. how
ever, there is very cool weather
in the West we generally have cooler
weather in the South soon afterwards.
Our dispatches yesterday stated that
eight inches of snow fell in Leadville
on Sunday. That was a pretty severe
snoWstorm for that section even in
the winter season. And there was a
snow storm in Chicago and all North
ern Illinois on Saturday. The weather
reports for Illinois are to the effect
that all June records have been brok-
en-" 1t seems that in that part of the
West June was a very wet and cold
month. The outlook for corn is far
from encouraging. It has hardly be-
gun to grow, and the long continued
wet weather has rotted it's roots to
such an extent that there will have to
be replanting if much of a crop is
made. The wheat harvests have been
between showers and there is general
complaint of rust. 1t can be under
stood that the farmers are in
gloomy frame of mind when it is
stated that throughout June there was
heavy rain pretty nearly every day
the rainfall for the month being the
greatest on record-and the tempera-
ture so low that crops made no growth
worth speaking of. On Saturday the
temperature in Chicago was within
ten degrees of freezing. If such wealth.
er continues much longer the prices
of meat will go much above what they
are at present, and it will not be
charged that the beef trust put them
up.
All things considered we have not
much reason to complain of the wealth
err here in the South. Sometimes, in
localities, it is too dry and at other
times it is too wet, but it is very sell
dom indeed that we have weather that
is wholly destructive of the crops. In
the matter of weather we are better
off than the people of most other sec
tions of the country.

The President understands that the
leaders of the Republican party are
against his nomination for President in
1904 and he Is we'll aware that the
financiers of the country have no use
for him. but he IS very ambitious to
be his own successor, and believes he
can be notwithstanding the forces in
his party that are against him.
Attention has been called already to
the Swing around the circle" in the
fall for which he is now arranging.
1t is given out that his first tour will
be through the New England states,
the second through the principal states
of the West and the third through the
South, going as far as San Antonio,
Tex.
Some of his friends want him to talk
as little politics as possible, but there
is no doubt that about all of his
speeches will be of a political character.
What sort of speeches they win be is
evident from his address at Arlington
on Memorial day and his address at
Harvard University recently. The
first was a partisan address in which
he undertook to defend the cruelties
committed By our army in the Philip
pines by asserting that lynchings in
this country were more cruel than any
thing that had happened in the Phil
ippines. The address at Harvard was
a defense of his friends Secretary Root,
Gen. Wood and others. 1t is a good
trait in a man to stand by his friends.
but he ought to be sure his friends are
not deserving of censure. 1t is pre-
dicted that Gen Woods administration
of affairs in Cuba will give the Pres
ident a good deal of trouble before the
Democrats are satisfied to drop it. It
is claimed that some of his expenditures
cannot be defended. And yet the Pres
ident, knowing what they are, has as
sumed full responsibility for them.
1t is not improbable that the Pres
ident may win the nomination, not
withstanding the fact that the politi-
clans and financiers of his party are
against him. His frankness is appre-
ciated by the people. 1t is admitted
that he means to do what he believes
to be right and for the best interests
of the country. 1t is his judgment
that is questioned. 1t will be. recalled
that he made fine impression at Char
lesion. 1t may be that his success
there has something to do with his de-
termination to utilize his time next
fall, from September to December in
visiting different parts of the country.

A British medical commission has
been sent out to the Congo country to
study a peculiar disease which has
made considerable ravages upon the
natives during the past few years. The
disease is called the sleeping sick
ness" White men seem to be immune
to it, but the natives attacked lie down
al sleep themselves to death. The de-
sire to sleep is not continuous, but
periodical, each period lasting longer
than the one before it. The desire to
sleep may come on in the midst of a
meal, and it is irresistible The un-
natural sleep is not refreshing, but has
just the opposite effect and the patient
loses strength until death finally inter-
venes. No pain attends the malady; it
is just wasting away of strength dur
ing sleep.

n&ks An .
Is not Mr.. Bryan making a mistake
in attacking, whenever the opportun-
ity presents itself. every Democrat of
prominence who was not in sympathy
with everything for which he stood in
the campaigns of 1896 and 1900? The
attack which he makes upon John P.
Hopkins, who was recently elected
chairman of the Democratic State
Executive Committee of Illinois is vio-
lent and vicious. Speaking of the
Democratic state convention of that
state and Mr.. Hopkins, in the current
number of his paper, The Commoner,
he says: THE Democrats of Illinois
might as well face the fact that the
state organization is now in the hands
of the reorganizers. They controlled
the late state convention, dictated
the platform and turned the party
machinery over to John P. Hopkins.
With Hopkins in control Of
the party machinery the platform is,
however, immaterial because he could
not be trusted with the carrying out
of a platform embodying the Sermon
on the Mount" Further along in his
article Mr.. Bryan says that Hopkins
purpose no doubt is to use the party
to further Republican schemes, and
that the Democratic party of Illinois
will be essentially a Republican party.
Mr.. Bryan is doubtless angry be-
cause the Democratic state conven-
ton of Illinois made no mention Of
him in its platform and did not reaf-
firm the Kansas City platform, He
does not seem to realize that there is
a very strong, perhaps an overwhelming
sentiment in the Democratic party in
favor of recognizing as a fact that the
silver question is dead issue, at
least for the present and to have
nothing to say about it. The Demo-
Gratis of Indiana made no mention of
the Kansas City platform in their res
olutions. In fact, in a number Of
other states Democrats have made TO
mention of the Kansas City platform,
and it is a safe assertion that in
more that half of the states this year
there will be no mention of the Kan
sas City platform by Democrats in
their platform utterances.
Under the circumstances Mr.. Bryan's
attack on Mr.. Hopkins and the Dem
ocrats of Illinois is not defensibIe from
any point of view. 1t looks as If he
were influenced by purely personal
considerations. AS one of the leaders
of the party his aim should be to get
Democrats together. The course ne is
pursuing is calculated to keep them
apart. Unless the party is united
there will be no chance for it to get
control of the House in the congress
sional elections or to win in the pres
idential contest of 1904 If Mr.. Bryan
insists upon the adoption of his views
by every Democratic convention that
is held, Notwithstanding the fact that
such a policy means defeat. he will
find his friends will desert him. He
win be without influence, except in
those states in which the Populists
have considerable strength and are
willing to fuse with Democrats.

THE INCREASE IN THE APPoPRI
ATIONS.

The first Congress that appropriated
billion dollars il time of peace was
known for a long time as the billion
dollar Congress" the amount was re-
garded as so enormous.
The present Congress has distanced
that Congress in the matter CT appro-
priations. This is its first session, and
it has already appropriated nearly a
billion dollars. The amount is $685.
e25 S47.
1t is hardly probable that the ap-
propriations at the next session will
be nearly so large, but doubtless they
will be large enough to bring up the
total appropriations for the entire Con-
gress to 81 500 900 900.
If anybody had predicted fifty years
ago that within half century the
appropriations of d single Congress
would reach that sum he would have
been thought to be a fit subject for a
lunatic asylum. If we are not mis-
taken the annual appropriations fifty
years ago did not amount to much
more than $4,000 900.
If they have increased nearly twenty
times within half a century what
will they amount to half a century
hence? That is o question that stag
gers the imagination.
And yet. the country does not appear
to be grooming under taxation. The
taxes from which the revenues are
drawn are so widely and evenly dis
tributed that the burden is felt only
lightly.
1t is not probable that there will ever
be decrease in the amount of the APP
preparations unless the country be-
comes bankrupt. There will always
be new schemes for taking money out
of the treasury. The irrigation scheme
that was adopted "a few days ago does
not call for direct appropriation from
the treasury. 1t is to be carried out
by means of the proceeds from the sale
of the reclaimed lands, but it will not
be long, in all Probability, before the
irrigation business will be saddled upon
the treasury, and that means hundreds
of millions of dollars. perhaps thou
sands of millions, before the scheme is
completed.

John Randolph, that descendant of
Pocahontas who figured so brilliantly
in Congress as representative of Vir-
ginia, was once accosted on the piazza
of a hotel by a young blade who had
been boasting of his acquaintance with
Randolph, and who thought he could
bluff the Virginian into speaking to
him before the admiring guests of the
hosiery, says the Philadelphia Times.

and saluted him with:

out the faintest sign of recognition.

"A fact apparent to everybody, sir"

British journalistic enterprise stub
bed its toe severely last week The
coronation, of course, was responsible.
One religious weekly, dated Saturday,
contained a double-page picture of the
coronation ceremony of the King in
Westminster Abbey by the Archbishop
of Canterbury-which, of course, never
occurred. Another journal, a fashion
weekly, contained a full Illustrated ac-
count of the coronation with a descrip-
ton also OF the Kings dinner to the
poor. In addition there was a rather
severe criticism of the special per-
formance of the opera at Covent Gar
den, which had been abandoned alto
gether. 1t is said that the newspapers
and other journals had literally tons of
matter prepared for the coronation, all
OF which is now useless.

Mr.. Cleveland to make one or more
speeches in behalf of the Democratic
state ticket in the approaching cam
paign. Republican managers are to
try to get President Roosevelt to make
speeches in New York. and the DEM
