ENTERED AZ SECOND GLARS MAIL MATTER.
Not Acceptable.

The platform, adopted at the New
York Democratic convention that so
strongly endorsed Judge Parker for
presidential nominee, is chiefly conspic-
nous for what 1t does not contain. This
has not been keenly relished by the fol-
lowers of Mr.. Hearst, and is criticised
widely by conservative Democrats, even.
The Boston Herald holds the prospec-
tive nominee himself largely responsible
for this platform inasmuch as David B..
Hill and William r. Sheehan spent day
and half with him just before the con-
vention, and it Is generally understood
Parker insisted upon the structure being
just to his liking.
Mr.. Bryan Is outspoken in denuncia-
ton of the New York platform. He
went so far In this as to go to Chicago,
hire a hall on his own responsibility and
at his own expense and hold big meet
ing, widely advertised, at which he as
the only speaker, raked the New York
articles of faith, fore and aft. Oh this
speech the Boston Herald says: "The
report of his speech, although but par
tial, shows that he analy ID the New
York Democratic platform with keen
criticism of its shortcomings, and much
of his criticism was just. Probably
there is NO man in the country today,
not holding high office, who can COM
mand an Cqlal attention for his personal
views"
The Herald further, calls upon Judge
Parker to come out into the open, and
not persist in the fiction Of taking no
part in politics, stating "If the reports
of his active personal participation in
the management for his nomination are
true, and they come from his support
ers, it would seem that he cannot too
soon lay aside the disguise of his ermine
and take his place as a politician among
the other sacf-coated politicians with
whom he is contending for favors.'
Evidently there are warm times ahead
for the Democratic aggregation before
it succeeds in electing a President, or
even getting one placed in nomination.
