lease, through his attorney, j. r.
Watts, Henry demanded that he be

THE NEW LEADERSHIP.

The members Of the Democratic part!
who awaited with anxious interest the out
come OF the st. Louis convention, hav,
found ample reward. AS the proceeding
wore on amid contention and confusion
there were moments when the fear of 6
great blunder became oppressive, and even
towards the end there existed a feeling Of
disappointment, indefinite but persistent,
which foreboded failure at the polls.
II Is probable that this was due in large
part 10 the nominee for the Presidency
While favorably known as judge and a
man, he was untried in the field of national
politics, and had given to the people no ex-
hibition Of the qualities demanded in the
head Of great nation. Popular favor had
gone out to him rather upon the ground Of
his availability as strong candidate in
State which is essential 10 Democratic sue
cess, and in the hope that, having lived up
rightly and worked diligently, he would
measure up to the requirements of great
office.
q
that the convention failed TO make declar-
alton upon the money question, for it en-.
abled Judge Parker TO at once fill the gap
in the line OF battle, and to exhibit moral
fibre which is better than thousand con.
vention platitudes, since it permits US to
know, at the beginning of the campaign,
that man of principle will, If elected, up
hold the principles OF the party and admin.
lister the Constitution and laws as their
trainers intended they should be admins
tered.
The now historic telegram TO Mr.. Sheehan
lie vastly more than personal declaration
upon question Of public policy. 1t sets
precedent Tor the future of candor upon the
part OF candidates for public office which
will be of immense value TO the country 1t
10 display Of the highest craftsmanship,
because man large enough TO rule great
nation must know that his rule will be
strong and benefcent II he is sustained by
the respect and confidence Of the people,
and that II will be weak and evil II Office is
purchased by money and deception. The
promptness with which Judge Parker clear
ed clouded political atmosphere, shows
that his private thinking has been deep and
along correct and broad lines, and that the
result Of his years of study and reflection is
a character upon which his countrymen
may rely.
II proof were needed Of the wisdom Of this
courageous aud manly act, it is found in the
commentator with which the people have
received II. We know now that 1t was not
aquestion of what the consequences might
have been to Judge Parker himself, but the
simple question OF what was the right thing
TO do. That settled, the action followed, be.
cause the mans heart and conscience are
clean. AT once the political skies cleared,
and doubt vanished before the warm enthu-
slasm Of a united party. AT no time in our
history has there been greater need for the
the ascendency of Democratic principles
than now. With Judge Parker to lead,
there should be no doubt OF the result of the
election.

The convention sent back the following
reply:
"The platform adopted by this convention

standard, because it is not regarded by US as
possible issue in this campaign, and only
campaign issues were mentioned in the plat.

Parker. He, too. is a gold-standard man.

races for the presidency on the score of

New York answers with man who learned

honored them by his exalted station on the

from poverty TO power, never in iar weather

The country called upon New York for a
