time This enterprise deserves the CO.
operation of the government and Of tie
citizens generally. Such speedway. SUIT
able for the best performances of the last
est horses. would prove great attraction.
1t would serve in the development Of the
park spaces and fit admirably into the
scheme Of the Senate Park Commission.
which regarded the reclaimed river banks
as the most appropriate place of public
relaxation. 1t Is known that many wealthy
Washingtonians with residences elsewhere
have not cared to bring their fine teams
here because there has been no place to
exercise them properly. 1t is believed tEat
If such a speedway were provided this city
would become the winter residence of
others who are such great horse lovers
that they prefer to locate where facilities
for enjoying the sport of road driving can
be had The proposition that this road be
built from private subscriptions on land
belonging to the government should quickly
lead to results.

Mr.. BRYAN and Mr.. Croker.

At first blush the story that Richard
Croker will try to persuade Mr.. Bryan while
the latter Is in England to abandon the
silver issue and go in for harmony next
year seems little absurd. The Boss Emeri-
tus, as he is now called. of Tammany Hall
is not diplomat, and the service suggested
would appear to call for talent of that de-
scripton. Moreover, some very distfn-
guished men have approached Mr.. Bryan
on that subject. and have failed. Is success
possible for man like Mr.. Croker when
men like Hill and Towne and others have
been turned away? Mr.. Hill. it will be re-
membered went to Lincoln in 1900 ana
urged Mr.. Bryan to cut out silver for that
campaign and give the party in the east a
chance But Mr.. Bryan was obdurate. He
would cut out nothing. AS the candidate
his would be the risk. and he was willing to
take it. The party must take 1t, too. Re
suit, defeat number two.
Still if it Is possible for anybody to move
Mr.. Bryan, and start him in the path Of
what so many people call practical politics.
MI Croker may not be without his uses.
To begin with, he knows no other kind of
politics OF course he has platforms of
principles written and sees to their adop-
ton, and he accepts national platforms with
him. They do not grip him. He's on with
them and off with them with ease as the
case may require. If his platforms don't suit
he takes them back and tries others. He
put out a gold standard platform in 1896,
and then. after the party had spoken at
Chicago, he withdrew it and adopted Mr..
Bryan's platform He is a protean artist
in that line.
Now. if Mr.. Bryan is in need of sugges-
lions as to such matters-and many demo-
Gratis think he is, and would be glad to see
him in the way of receiving them-why
would not those from such a man as Mr..
Croker be of great service? They would go
directly to the point. There would be
neither obscurity nor circumlocution about
them. The Crokerian motto is. Insure me
a majority at the polls, and I care not who
writes the platform, or what it contains.
Mr.. Bryan has met defeat twice on a plat
form which seems weaker now than on
either of those occasions. VIII he try to
force it on his party again? Or can he be
induced to support something else of some
body else's devising? An evening at Wan
tage with this topic under discussion by the
squire and his guest will possess elements
of great interest

The Homemade Wedding.

Me fur the home made weddin; the good.
old-fashioned kind,
Where love an hope. an not spIendor are
uppermost in the mind:
Where there's jes' the family preacher-the
one we have known fur years;
Some honestly spoken "God-b less-you's, -
some smiles an perhaps some tears
Where every word Of the service has a
meaning that's deep an true.
An a promise is made that is strong
enough to last fur whole life through;
Where there amt no sneerin' envy that
smiles an mocks an pretends:
Where the flowers are the simple sort that
bloom in the sunshine of home an
friends. .r... ..
When Mandy and me was married-the
time is years away;
Yet the memory of it stands as clear as if
it was yesterday
There wasn't no crowd in waitin' to see us
as we went past.
1t was jes' a homemade weddin' that was
guaranteed to last.
There wasn't no pomp an glitter. The
presents was rather few
But we spoke from our very inmost hearts
when we uttered the words Il do"
An the skies was blue an happy; an the
light that shines in the skies
Is no more constant from year to year than
the love in 'Mandy's eyes

Labor and the Socialists.

The american Federation of Labor ycster-
day IN convention al Boston emphatically
voted down resolution identifying that
body with the socialists. who have lately
been cndeavoring TO associate themselves
thornughout the country definitely with the
labor organizations The conservative
members 81 tie trades unions will applaud
this acti"u. One of the gravest dangers
nOw confronting the labor organiza lions is
that OF their identification with either a
political party or a socio-polltical propa-
Eanda They have their best uses apart
from any such associations. The problems
They are called upon TO solve are best set
tied entirely apart from the political field
The socialist paganda waxed last year
to considerable proportions. The vote in
Mas, hUsetiS especially was suggestiveiy
largc. The hopes of the leaders ran high
and boasts We're made that the doctrines of
the cult would be forthwith pushed vigor-
ously until the country rang with them
But tins fan the socialist vote in Massachu-
sets fell Off materially, and it is evident
that tHe state does not relish the thought
of an infusion of these principles into the
ordinary political discussions. Had the Fed
GRAFTON of Labor accepted the overtures of
the socialists doubtless for time the boom
would have been inflated. but not to the per
manent advantage of either the socialists or
the unionists.
The labor problems are in fair course of
solution without the aid of radical meas
ures. Despite the setback of the past sum
mer, caused in large part by the faction
fighting of the various building trades
unions. the country is in fair way to
gain the plane of rational settlement of
issues between employer and employed

Let Us Dig.
From the PhiIaGelphia Press

The trade of the world, the peace of ma
tons and the security of the continent will
all profit by the new canal treaty with the
republic OF Panama signed yesterday by
Secretary Hay and NJ. Bunau-VarilIa A
great step forward has been taken in the
history of civilization. A wholesome lesson
has been read to the various bands of rob-
bers, politicians and bandit generals who
masquerade at one capital or another of
the lesser Spanish-American capitals or
sovereign states" The isthmian canal is
lifted above the risks of caprice. cabal and
conspiracy. great work long delayed, is
brought to the threshold of great success
The country as whole approves The
American people believe in having things
done, and whatever criticism may be made
as to details. the task of preparing to build
the canal was carried close to completion
by yesterdays treaty. 1t waits now only
on the Senate.
