LIKELY DEMOCRATS.
Names BeinE Mentioned for the First
Place on the National
Ticket.

1t is stated that. after all, the demo-
Gratis of Massachusetts at their coming
state convention will not indorse Rich
ard Olney for the presidency. Many of
his admirers desire such action, and
have organized quite sentiment in favor
of 1t, but the weight OF opinion is against
1t. The Boston Herald regrets the deci-
sion. and gives some excellent reasons
why Mr.. Olney should thus be compli-
mented by his party friends. Mr. Oh
ney's attitude in the case is not indi-
Gated. He may not care for that sort of
thing. He is not politician and the
ways of politicians may not always be
acceptable TO him, says the Washington
Star.
There will be, then, this year no name
formally presented for the democracy's
great prize. The ;mocrats of New York
hold no state convention, and hence the
question as to whether Mr.. Hill wants
instructions for himself, or is willing
that Judge Parker shall receive them,
remains undecided. Neither will there
be occasion for the democrats of New
Jersey to express themselves as to Mr..
Cleveland. Mr.. German could easily
have secured instructions for himself in
Maryland. but evidently thought it best
not TO introduce that issue into the state
campaign. In Ohio Tom Johnson got
everything he wanted. but as he was up
for gubernatorial honors, he could not,
of course, ask for presidential instruc-
tions also.
Nevertheless. the country is not left
in the dark on this subject. The names
of Mr.. Cleveland. Mr.. Olney, Mr. Cor
man, Mr.. Hill and Judge Parker will
continue to figure in the presidential
speculation, and democrats here and
there will carefully study their strong
points. They possess strong points.
Judge Parker is little known, but he is
well vouched for. The others are men
OF experience, and have made their mark
IN large affairs. Two of them Mr.. Hill
and Mr.. German. are organizers and
strategists of high order. and the nom
ination of either one would insure a con-
test of very great interest. The candi-
date would in large measure direct his
own campaign, and that would mean
strenuosity after Mr.. Roosevelts own
pattern.
But it may be a nSw man. So much
fighting has disturbed the democratic
household in the past ten years, and par
ticularly in the past seven, that every
prominent member pf It has been more
or less disfgured 1t may be necessary
to promote some private from the ranks
in order to present an attractive appear
ance TO the public.

FACTS ABOUT WAGES.
Average Much Higher Uudsr ETAg3ec-
ton in America Than in Free
Trade Europe.

The statement in the recent British
blue book showing that English ex-
ports to the United States declined
from $145O00, 900 in 1890 to s97 500 900
in 1902, is not the chief tribute which is
paid to the value of the policy Cf protec-
ton. Nor is the most significant evil
dence of the failure of free trade found
in the statement that the imports from
the United States have increased from
