IL is difficult to find out from the utseranees
OF our opponents what the real issues upon
which they propose to wage this campaign. u
Is not unfair to say that, having abandoned
most OF the principles upon which they have in
sisted during the last eight years, they now seem
at loss, both as to what IL is that they really
believe and as to how firmly they shall assert
their belief in anything. We do not have TO
guess at our own convictions, and then correct
tne guess Ut it seems unpopular The principles
"nieh we profess are those in which believe
with heart and soul and strength. Tho
policies we have pursued are those which we
earnestly hold as essential to the national well
fare and repute. -. We intend in the
tuture TO carry on the government in the same
way that we have carried il on in the past
president Roosevelt.

4 BETTING ADMINISTRATION

At a Democratic mass meeting in Brooklyn the
other night Hugh Mclaughlin sat In box, but
no one regarded him. There were no cheers FOR
him, no hand clippings. no demonstrations OF
enthusiasm-none so poor to do him reverence
Only a few years ago he held the Democratic
machine in Kings County in the hollow of his
hand. McCarren now holds the authority which
once was in the possession OF the Willoughby
Street boss" The change is not an improve
ment McEAughlin's favorite sports recrea-
tons and amusements were harmless de was
fond In his leisure hours Of whiting sticks and
playing dominos: but he did not bet on dOminos
or on anything else. McCarren, on the other
hand, has been for years one Of the heaviest and
most persistent ''pIungers" in betting at the
racetracks.
Even Richard Croker was never SO regular
and habitual a fre0uenter of the turf solely for
gambling purposes as McCarren has been for
long series OF seasons. McCarren never dis
played any true, unselhsh admiration for thor

oughbred horses of the noblest ancestry and the
rarest speed vA6ch son or daughter OK
mighty sire ooylA possess. His interest in horse
flesh has always bcsn q a means for wazery Ia
the poolrooms and Cor dealings with the book
makers in the betting rings
Mclaughlin had faults enough, and far TOO
many as a political leader. hut at least he was
never q frequenter of racetracks all thFe"sh
the year merely as a hanger-on of betting rings.
Moreover, McCarren not long ago bet so heavily
on horses that as alleged, he was compelled TO
beg the indulgence OF the bOokmakers and 10
delay the settlement of his gambling accounts.
Kings County Democrats did not go up to
higher standard Of political leadership when
they put McCarren in the place Of Mclaughlin.
But McCarren is one of the closest advisers and
councillors of Judge Parker and did a great
deal TO bring about the support Of Democratic
delegates from this State which secured the
nomination of Judge Parker at ST. Louis.
Were 1t possible that the voters Of the United
States might elect Judge Parker in November
should we not have a betting ring administra-
ton?

miral Rojestvensky's report may or may not be
true. 1t may be sincere and yet altogether I'M
true-the outcome of gross misapprehension. But
what is true beyond oil question is that great
wrong was done TO British subjects, and also
that the whole world was made to feel that its
peaceful commerce was imperilled by the prog
ress of the Russian fleet Those are the facts
with which Russia has 10 deal, and with which
it behOOves her promptly to deal in a manner

nothing more or less than what Mr.. Hay called
it, the simple fact" American prosperity since

Of the gold standard. and TO neither Of these

are times when the truth. however unpleasing
to some, must be spoken without fear or regard
for party susceptibilities and the present is one
of them.
