CLARION Vo1CE FROM THE

New Orleans Times Demobrat We
have no desire to forestall the deliber
ations Of the national democratic con-
vention to be held 1t ST., Louis dur
Ing the summer Of. 1904. but we are
impelled to restate certain truths
which the prophets Of smooth things
are anxious to ..obscure. In the first
place, 1t may be: taken for granted
that this continent is not big enough
to hold two republican parties.
Wall Street would, therefore like
to have q democrat candidate of
the colorless sort-a candidate who
has been In the woods, or in the en-
emy's camp, throughout the hot con-
ficts of the last ten years. From this
point Of view the wishes Of the faith
full millions are vain and the greed of
the faithful thousands must be &C.
copied without demur. Imperialism
and kindred fads must be received as
having the impress of destiny, and we
must invent new issues which may be
forsaken when the moment shall be
opportune.
What would the democracy do if
intrusted with the reins of power =?
What could be done toward q solution
of the problems which beeet philoso-
phic thinkers? These questions answer
themselves. The path of public crib
would be cleared for q horde of raven
GUS tax-eaters, but all real reforms
would die at the hands of their un-
natural parents Figs are not to be
gathered from thistles, old abuses are
not to be swept away by the chief
bene6ciaries. The parsy's treasury
may be filled by promising the trust
a long lease of life; the railway mag
mates may be appessed by assuring
them that the interstate commence
act shall remain dead letter; the
great bankers may be VOL over by
giving. them the coveted control of
the currency. The pseudo democrats
dream Of success with dishonor, but
the very stars in their courses will
fight against them, as they fought
against Sisera. But will the game be
worth the candle? The placeman SAYS,
YES. History says no. Renegades are
dangerous to their allies and to their
allies alone. The doughface is the
m ost pitiable of all figures in the
politics of free people.

THE HAT HAS ARRIVED.

, New York Sun: The exercise room
OF the soldiers and sailors hons 1T
Grand Island on the Platte. Nebras-
H. is the shrine Of Z hallowed relic.
The hat worn by President Roosevelt
while he was on his travels through
the country has just been deposited in
that exercise room. in ful6lment of q
solemn promise made by the wearer
when he visited Grand Island on the
Platte. -.
As our dispatches told yesterday,
"there was jollifcation over it's ar
rival. 1T was received with bands
and bsnners. Grand leland on the
Pl' tie echoed with the tread of
marching men and with the Joyous
shouts of youth. Beautiful maidens
strewed flowers along the progress d
the hat. The school children sang
hymns to it. The Wednesday We
mans club, the Saturday Dante and
Hamlin Garland club. the Di-weekly
euchre club and the Anti Race Suicid9
sodality gave it the Chautauqua
salute. Amid the enthusiasm, the
happy tears of all Grand Island on
the .Platte, that historic hat. rich
with SO many military, literary, poll
tical, moral sentimental and vocal
associations, was escorted to it's hon.
ored resting place.
There. vigilantly guarded, it re-
mains, the chief jewel and treasure
Of Grand leland on the Platte. Thus
does affectionate venera ton seek to
collect the memorials of greatness!.
Thus does that speaking hat. which
has stirred the hearts OF multitudes
at the railroad stations, waved frater-
nal greeting the to rough riders, now
thundered against trusts and now en-
couraged mothers to do their duty
thus does it find peaceful home and
worthy temple. Its dangers are over.
Its glories are but beginning.

HANNA PREFERRED IN INDIANA

HANNA PREFERRED IN INDIANA
An Indianapolis dispatch to the
New York Sun says:
Gov. Durbin in conversation today
said and repeated with emphasis,
that he did not believe there was any
Hanna organization in Indiana. In
the same conversation the governor
said, and repeated with equal en-
phasis, that Senator Hanna was un-
doubtedly the choice of the large ma
jority of the republicans of The state
in preference to Mr.. Roosevelt as the
next presidential candidate of the
party. lit is not the politicians, -
said the governor. sit is with the
people generally that Mr.. Hanna is
strong. It is not confined to the cities
and to business men. The Hanna SEN
timent pervades the farming element
as we'll. A friend of mine told me
only the other day of hearing three
farmers of the solid, substantial type
talking at a railroad station, One of
them said, "Well, all I got to say is
that l wish we had William Mckinley
back again." Another said something
about Roosevelt, and the third said:
IF We had Mark Hanna for president
We would be all right. He Ia the best
man Of all Of them'' And In that
sentiment all three Of the farmers
agreed.
