IT IS NOT SURPRISING.

The Portland> Oregonian deals out half column of editorial surprise that ''the political party that Jefferson cre- ated should have an organic life to- day" We beg to inform our contem- porary that Democracy is. in the lam guage of Fitz-Green Halleck.
 One of the few, the immortal names. That were not born to die,
 and the Party will last while the name survives, As long as this Is a repub- lie of freemen. there will be a Demo- cratic Party to preserve the liberties of the people. It has seen many po- litical parties come on the stage with blare of trumpet and roll of drum, to strut out a brief existence and pass away forever As Tennyson writes: For men man come and men may go. But l go on forever.
 The truth of the matter Is that it would be a sad day for the American Government and the American people if the Democracy, as a party organiza- ton. should die. Democracy in its in- tent and in it's practical as well as NACCtGNiSdA IS essentially the party of the people. That it some times departs from the objects laid down by it's earliest opponents is only too true, but that is the fault of men and not of principles. It is still what It's name intimates. and will be so while the people have faith in 1t. The Republican Party, since it's birth has more than once come perilously near to sending the Government and the country to ruin. and nothing prevented such a catastrophe but the fact that the Democracy served as a brake. With that brake removed. and with nothing to threaten it's supremacy. that party would soon sound the death knell of free government Let not The Ore gonian feel surprised that the Demo- cratic Party exists, nor hopeful that It's end is near. The country, the Gov ernment and the people need it and will not see 1t pass away.

 Memphis Commercial Appeal
 Quite recently there has been a no- table discussion of the merits and de- merits of the Cleveland administrations in which The Commercial-Appe and The Courier-Journal have participated each paper expressing Judgments. views and opinions to which the other dissented.. It came about that we were Journal, an offense most pardonable under the circumstances, for in the storm and stress In which we find our mind after seance with the terrible Teddy Roosevelt and the negro prob lem, we forgot that nothing so upsets and angers the even-tempered and 1o- vial MT. Watterson as the mere men tiOn of CleVeland's name. But we have had smoked glass thrust into our un- willing hands by which to see "certain spots on the sun of the Tennessean'S idolatry" which MT. Watterson ven tured to point out in his own mild. milk gravy way" It Is with due rev erence for his authority as the Nestor of our guild, and just regard for truth, that we, mortifying though 1t be- declare that we failed to observe a partial eclipse or even a spot "on the sun of our idolatry." It will be in vain that MT Watterson, and those who agree with hip-among whom Is Hen IT Cabot JodBe-retorts, in the epi- gram of Swift, There Is none so blind Q s they that won't see," for. as far as our acquaintance extends, there be many more who think the distinguish ed editor of The Courier ournaI in
 licted with blindness than that we who hold with them, have scales on our eyes We do not and never have idollzed Mir Cleveland; on the contrary we know that he is human, and hu- manity is frail and weak. But we have never seen any spots on his polit- ical, social or moral character that would cause us to turn away from him m disgust as if he were a leper and hurl stones at him to drive him from mi a I masterful character he would not be assailed by those in whose way he has stood and who have grievances against him of which the world knows not Of Washington and Jefferson and Jackson and Lincoln were so assailed in their day and time, and no right-minded man, who cares for the good opinion of his fellows, regards them az other than patriots who loved their country next to God and who served her un selfshly throughout their stormy ca- reers. This, we believe, will be the verdict of posterity when it comes to judge Mir Cleveland.

Roosevelt at Groton School.

Manchester (N. H Union.
 As might have been expected the President Emperor talked to the boys about having common sense" and ''decency." He has made the word strenuous" so ineffably contemptible that no good writer or speaker wants to use 1t. He has made the word de lighted" synonymous, in WashinEton with everything that is extensively and transparently insincere; and 1t has be- come impossible of late for him to ad- dress any assembly on any occasion. without admonishing them that they must be decent" and have common sense" until those words have almost become outlandish. No man who ever occupied the presidential office was guilty of so much official indecency as Theodore Roosevelt; and yet, wherever he goes, and whenever he has an on pCrtunity to talk, he Is certain to preach about "decency" and common sense" as though they were dualities which no one ever heard of before, and which no one ever possessed so much as he.

The Vote of Hawaii.

Baltimore Sun.
 Tho announcement is made that the friends of MT. Hearst will control the Democratic convention at Honolulu and that the delegates from the Territory of Hawaii in the national convention will vote for him. This was to have been expected. 1t seems a small mat ter whether the Hawaiian delegates vote for this man or that, as there is no electoral vote. But this Territory, as well as the others, has a voice in selecting the candidate for President, although they cannot contribute to his election. And it may be that the vote of Hawaii or that of some other Ter nomination. It may be that some can didate will lack one single vote of the two-thirds majority and Hawaii might make or prevent the nomination of that candidate. Something even more serious than that happened in 1900 at the Kansas City convention. The candidate for the Presidency had been practically selected before tho convention met. There was no contest upon that point. But the great ques- tion to be decided was whether the Chicago platform should be reaffirem4d and the party again declare for the free and unlimited coinage of silver. Many people of good judgment 5eliev- ed that If the silver question were dropped there were living issues upon which Mir. Bryan could be elected. But the convention was warned that with free silver for the issue there could be no chance. The question was fought out in the Committee on Resolutions. Nearly all night the contest waged, because 1t was believed that the decis- ion of the committee would be actept- ed by the convention. The commit tee was almost equally divided. But finally the decisive vote in favor of free silver was cast by young man of dark complexion from Honolulu. It is pos sible that but for that vote Bryan and not Mckinley would have been elected President in 1900. The vote of Ha- wall, therefore, while it is not likely to nominate MT. Hearst, may be of i'm portance in the convention.

Nenroen on street Cors.


 The Council, the police and all of our authorities appear to have wholly lost sight of the separate street car accommodation ordinance passed near test from many Montgomery citizens "
 This utterance by prominent Mont gomery business man yesterday was dences of his indignation at the man neI in which ordinances adopted by the City Council are ignored.
 The purpose of the ordinance" he continued. was to give white persons seats on street cars and to separate the races. Conductors of street cars arc empowered under the ordinance to en- force it. For a time 1t was customary fer negroes to be assigned seats in the reserved for white persons for obvious reasons
 More and more the car companies arc encroaching on the rights of the public until within the past few weeks some of the car lines appear to be set apart for the use of negroes and no ar engagements whatever are provided Tor white passengers.
 last Sunday iNternoon that beggar de- sCription. park for negroes was oTened in the southwestern part of tho city and in the afternoon nearly every cal line In town was crowded to it's ut most capacity. The line reaching the park was given over entirely to ne- 91oes notwithstanding it runs through one Of the best residential portions of Montgomery. l saw white persons try to get on these cars but they were un- able to get a foothold, much less a seat.
 If it is not the intention of the Chief of Police the Mayor and City Council to enforce this ordinance they ought to repeal it and let the car company turn its equipment over to the ne- groes."
