Thomas Barclay who has been enc of the
principal leaders in the agitation for closer
relations between France and England, out

In regard to American affairs he said:
"A number Of Americans think the

treaty of 1897. and in France there is a
strong desire to act on a resolution passed
some time ago by the chamber OF depu-

ment, and as he expresses willing
ness to "do full mans share" here's
our hand. He says:

The independent. [volume] (Lincoln, Neb.) 1902-1907, 1903-08-13

The conference did not recommend
the organization of a new national
party immediately"-or at any other
time. On the contrary it paved the
way for consolidation of two national
parties already in existence. Mr. Post
says:
1t is to be regretted that the Denver
conference has recommended the Dr.
ganization of a new national party inn
m.ediately. Nothing can be gained by
this procedure and much may be lost.
II it did no more, it's tendency, SO far
as it may succeed in organizing the
common people against the purocracy
must be to weaken the strength with
in the democratic party, both in num-
hers and influence, of the democratic
democrats who are now in the thick of
a fight for the maintenance Of their
supremacy N that organization.
But the success of this new national
party is not likely to be great enough
to do much damage of that kind The
greatest damage from such premature
and artificial procedure would arise
il the occasion for a political revolt
should naturally occur. To illustrate
let us suppose case. Let us suppose
that the republican convention should
be SO transparently plutocratic next
year as to mako the democratic re-
publicans of the country ripe for re-
volt. Let us suppose, further, that
plutocratic influence should succeed
IN swinging the democratic party back
