JUDGE PARKER, in his speech
accepting the Democratic nomina-
ton for president, said that he will
not accept a renomination whether
he IS elected or not. If elected, he
does not desire to be hampered
with any second term entangle-
ments. He gives as his reason
that great problems will be pre-
sented for settlement by the nation
al executive during the next four
years and to be settled right the
president must be utterly independ-
ent of any outside influences. 1t
is the first instance, we believe,
wherein a Secondterm was deciin.

The Democrats and Populists of
Nebraska got together on good
ticket last week Notwithstanding
that Tom Waston and Tom
Iibbles, the Populist candidates
for president and vice president,
were on the ground and opposed
fusion with all the strength they
could command. Fusion in
Nebraska ought to be easy. There
the name of a candidate can appear
on two or more tickets on the
official ballot if the parties desire
TO SO elect. In the Nebraska fusion
neither party was called on to
sacrifice anything.
