THE NATIONAL DEMOCRACY.

At the recent Jefferson day banquet
Of the Democratic editors Of the State
OF New York, Martin w. Littleton, as
sistant district attorney Of Kings coun-
~, sized up the condition Of the Nation.
nj Democracy rs follows:
The party r~cjoices that Cleveland was
n rigid tariff rerurmer and un honest,
economical administrator OF public
affairs; but the party cannot draw it's
daily vitality from this agreeable event
in history.
The party r~ejoiccs that Bryan is a
great, brilliant, wholesome and com-
handing influence in political lie; but
il cannot subsist upon such u comforting
reflection.
The party ~rcioiccs that Cleveland had
the courage to enforce the law; but the
party does not thereby admit that labor
ia lnwless, nor can it live upon the
thought of what Cleveland did.
The party r~ejoices that Bryan valiantly
but the party cannot thrive upon the re-
collection Of such valor.
All men % the party, Of all factions,
can unite III Il just tribute to the patri.
otism md greatness Of each of these
great leaders, aud yet they can recog-
nize the necessity Of 10 longer meas
uring the Democracy of their fellows
by the standard Of the one or the
other.
The practIca! importance Of this may
be seen by observing the course OF
events. lf some one suggests Mr.
Olney of Massachusetts rs a presidential
candidate, the cry comes out Of the
west that he il IA Cleveland man. II
some one suggests De Almond, the cry
m out OF the east he is II Bryan
man, II some one suggests Hill. the cry
out Of the west he is Il gold man
II romc II suggests Johnson the cry
III ont Of the east he is Il Bryan man
md 81 on through the whole list oi
possibilities. And all Of this IL done in
the face OF the fact that there is not 4
live issue upon which Cleveland and
Bryan disagree.
The Democratic party must rise above
Il dependence upon even SO great Il man
rs Cleveland OF Bryan. Unjust rest its
faith upon the intelligence and courage
OF TINT great body Of men who are
willing to blaze ont new paths and FOL
low new leaders. 1t must build it,
platform upon fscis and choose its can
didate outside the range or reach
OF factions. Its face must be
toward the future, and it's fight must
he pitched among the living, and it,
requirement for membership must he
