Contemporary Comment


During thar struggle many Southern
synpathizers undertook to exDostulate
with President Lincoln, charging that,
in his conduct of the war, he was vio-
latlng the constitution of the United
States. Mr.. Linco1n did not take the
trouble to argue with them the con-
stitutionality of his measures. He con-
tented himself with remarlxing YEARLY
that he guessed he was not violating
the constitution any more than the men
down South were" This is as much as
Gov. Peabody should condescend to say
to the Colorado insurgents who want
to hold him to the constitution and be
free to violate it themselves. Gov. Pea
body has it in his power to make San
Miguel county the quietest place in the
state, and it is to be hoped that he will
do so, whether Gompers and Mitchell

alleged irrepressible conflict between
two wings Of the Democracy. He starts
out with the cleveland Democracy"
and the Bryan Democracy" and merci-
lessly sets them to batting each other
over the head, while the Republicans
look on with chuckle.
We commend to the Democrats of the
state in the highest terms the admira-
BILE response sent to the forwarders of
these documents by Mr.. Lewis. His
letter says all that we should wish to
say, and says it extremely well. There
can be nothing but evil in the attempt
to perpetuate and intensity divisions
within the Democratic party. AS Mr.
Lewis says, mo one who is a Demo-
crat can claim any right of exclusive
ness by placing any kind of handle
to the name Democrat" And again,
'The way to win a battle is to go in
where there is some fighting to do,
where there is something to fight for
and a foundation or ground to fight
upon; not by cursing and abusing a
prospective commander, not by looking
behind and mourning over lost bat
ties, not by accusing your only SOL
der who is willing to face the enemy
That is all there is to it. The Hearst
campaign in this state and in every
other state, no matter how active and
loyal some of the men may be who
have been lured to it's support, is a
movement not against Republicanism,
but against Democratic harmony. In
that light it should be regarded by
every sincere Democrat. AS matters
now stand in all the states, and out
Of the mouth Of the Hearst prophets
themselves, it appears that, regardless
of the impossibility of the man as an
available candidate, the inspiration of
his campaign throughout the country
and its keynote is the declaration that
Democratic differences must and shall
be preserved, and union and harmony
in the Democratic party destroyed at
any cost. That effort can make only
for Democratic failure and Republican
joy.

have an opportunity to work at it

A DOOMED CITY.

Only by a miracle may the fall of
Port Arthur now be averted-and mi
racles do not seem to be in the line
of Russian accomplishment. It is not
to be doubted that the city is already
cut off from communication with the
Russian base; it is very certain that
the port is absolutely blockaded. The
landing Of the japanese troops at Pit
sewo effects.a complete line across the
lower end of the Liaotung peninsula
and one Of the great strategic move
ments of modern warfare is realized.
There has been SO much mystery pre-
served as to the strength of Port Ar
thur in men and munitions that moth
ing is positively known of it's power Of
resistance; but numbers can cut very
little figure in the resisting power Of
the Russians. A great garrison would
the sooner bring about the surrender OF
the city because il would the quicker
exhaust it's provisions. 1t is probable
that there are about 10000 men in
the garrisoc. In the harbor there are
a dozen ships of considerable tonnage
belonging to the Russian navy and
many smaller vessels. These are all
rendered ineffective by the complete
bottling of the harbor entrance by the
Japs. AS it is probable that the Rus
slams consider this a war to a finish
they may be depended on to destroy
the defenses of Port Arthur and, sink
the ships before giving up the city.
The money loss to Russia will be enor-
nous, the effect on her military pres
tige will be felt in the flocking of
the yellow peoples who have hitherto
kept out of the struggle to the stand
ard of Japan.
The impending fall of Port Arthur
and the retreat of Kuropatkin on
Mukden presages the death of the Rus
sian war of conquest in the East. The
weakness of the cumbrous armament
of the Russians has been exposed and
her diplomacy in the proper adjust
ment of the new civilization on the
eastern coast of Asia is in danger ~of
collapse into final failure.

Chinese Retaliation.

1t is by no means improbable that
the government of China has given
consideration to the question of adopt
ing retaliatory policy, and it is clear
that we could not consistently object
If it should adopt such policy, having
ourselves set the example Another
thing to be apprehended is that we
may lose great deal of trade, for we
may be sure that our commercial COM
petitors will do all they can to pro-
mote Chinese displeasure with our ex-

The affray between the rival Repub-
Iican candidates for governorship in

of unexampled bitterness. The latest
move is the concentration of the en-
tire force of the administration, with

structions from the governor, to black
en- the character of Mr.. Dunn, and the
retort OF Mr.. Dunn that this is mere
politics, that the state officials are neg

that the examiners Office in particular
has 'squandered thousands of dollars
of the states money for the sole pur-
pose of injuring him and helping Judge
Collins"
