Democratic victory Next Year.

Comptroller Grout, of Greater New
York. who allied himself with repub-
leans for two years in the city gov
eminent, but stood as a democratic
candidate this year on the ground
that he was a democrat when what
he took to be partisan issues appear
ed, and ran ahead of his ticket in the
democratic victory, speaks in no I'M
certain voice about the significance
of the vote in the metropolis. He
says:
The real meaning of Tuesdays
vote in this city is that democrats are
getting together in preparation for
victory in the state and nation next
year. 1t is most hopeful sign. The
democrats of the country can take
heart. believe that within six months
after Mr.. Mcclellan becomes mayor
his administration will have made
such a splendid record that New York
state will elect a democratic governor
and will cast its electoral votes for a
democratic president.
Everything now depends on the
kind of administration Mr.. Mcclellan
and his advisers will give. 1 look for
a great success. You may be sure
that Mr.. Mcclellan will avoid the mis-
takes of the Van Wyck administra-
ton. l would never have accepted the
Tammany nomination if ] had not
convinced myself of that / talked
with Mr.. Mcclellan and Mr.. Murphy,
and then L understood how fully they
realized the opportunity lying before
the organization, the immense re-
sponsibility resting upon the next
municipal administration. And, truly
no mayor ever entered upon his duties
in New York with a more magnificent
opportunity than that which con-
fronts Mr.. Mcclellan.
I'm six months the Tammany
name can be made an element of po-
litical strength throughout the state.
The old significance of that name can
be changed. All depends on the the
next administration. l believe that
Mr.. Mcclellan recognizes the situation
ana will prove to be equal to it. And
/ also believe that Mr.. Murphy ap-
precates the grave possibilities of
his position. He is a new type of
leader in Tammany. He is young.

Criminal Nonaction.

The Republican leaders have decid-
ed that the coming congress is to make
its mark by its ''innocuous desuetude''
and is to be known In history as the
do nothing congress. Can the Repub-
lican party afford to appeal to the peo-
pie on the Hanna issue of letting well
enough alone?" If President Roose-
welt is nominated his reputed strenu-
osity may Offset the Republican con-
gresSional programme of inactivity, but
it is very doubtful if many voters
would regard their interests conserved
by this course. To stand pat and
claim that the protective tariff has
made every one prosperous, with thou
sands of men out of work, will hardly
satisfy the most ardent Republican in
the wisdom of his leaders. With banks
failing and railroads reducing their
forces and the certain reduction in
wages that such business depreciation
brings. the voters will be asking why
no effort was made to prevent further
stagnation. If the cost of living still
continues at the prosperity point-and
there is no immediate signs of decrease
will those who must buy daily the
protected products of trusts vote to
continue the party in power which re-
fused legislation to aid them? Stand
ing pat under these circumstances is
criminal. and the Democrats in con-
gresS will demand action.

| ply consults, reflects and wins by
reason and tact. Where other leaders
had only force, he has fnesse. 1t is
my firm conviction that Mr.. Murphy
intends to do everything in his power
to make the name of Tammany hon
ored and respected everywhere. Mr..
| McClellan's administration will be the
test.
''All signs point to a democratic
victory in the state and nation next
year. All through this campaign l
have seen abundant evidence that the
long divided elements of the demo-
cratic party were reuniting. That.
more than anything else, explains our
sweeping success in New York Tues
day. We have issues now which must
draw us together. The end of the
period of imitation in our business,
the exposure of rotten enterprises
like the steel trust and the shipbuild-
ing trust, even the present economic
agitation in England, have awakened
Americans to a realization of the
tariff question. They now understand,
as they did not and could not perhaps
understand before, the relationship
of the high tariff to dishonest corpor-
ations.
d" We shall never get things right
in this country until we have sensi-
BILE and honest tariff made in the in
terest of the whole people and until
the law takes hold of corporations
generally and applies to them the rule
that is applied to banks and trust
companies. Dishonest corporations
with their stock-swindling enterprises
have done more to injure the country
than all other things combined.
These issues are great enough to
bring all democrats together are
bringing them together. 1t will not
be necessary in the campaign next
year to ask whether a man supported
the Chicago platform or not. 1t will
be enough to know that he is with
his party on the present issues

No Financial Legislation.

If tile information given out from
the White House is correct the Repub-
Hcan leaders have agreed with the
president that no financial legislation
shall be attempted at the coming SEES
sion of congress. The reason assigned
is that the country is so prosperous
that there is no need of such legisla-
ton. 1t is only a few months ago, at
the close of the last session of con-
gress, that Senator Aldrich. who rep
Fesents Rockefeller and Wall street
more faithfully than he does the state
of Rhode Island, said in the senate that
if his bill for the relief of the banks
was not passed the country would go
to perdition. Most of the country has
managed to rub along since then ex-
cept Wall street, which has been in the
dumps mainly by reason of the avarice
of the trust magnates in biting off
more than they can chew. The presi-
dent and Secretary Shaw have given
the banks all that the Aldrich law
promised them, and more, too, for,
whereas that law proposed the banks
should pay a small per cent on govern
ment deposits, the administration has
given them the use of over $160.000,00O
without a cent of interest. To bring
these matters up just on the eve of a
presidential election and have it de-
bated so that the voters of the whole
country would have their memories re-
freshed about the favoritism shown
the banks would be a bad political
move, and the Republican leaders have
therefore decided against doing so.
