Washington News Letter.

The democrats of the House OF
| Representatives under the able
leadership Of the Hon. John SHARP
Williams, are lining up in solid ar
ray against the republican party
and all it stands for. The demo
cratic party in this house is going
to stand for something besides ne
CATION, something besides mere OBJ
struction of republican tactics.
Hitherto, this has been the height
of the ambition Of the democratic
floor leader. If he could line up
the democrats to oppose anything
that the republicans suggested he
seemed satisfied, and let matters 90
ut that. Not so with John Sharp
Williams. He wants the democrat
ic party to stand for something pos
tive, and to place the republican
party on the defensive, and he in
tends to do so if the democrats who
are the leaders of the party on the
floor Of the house will back him up
in his intentions.
He will have q conference once q
week with the leading democratic
member on every committee and
ascertain exactly what is coming out
of the committee and what is before
it in the shape Of legislation. H"ny
of the legislation is worthy Of con
sldcration from a party standpoint, 4
meeting Of all the democratic mem
bers will be called and fight open
ed up on the republican measure
and q substitute offered and fought
for with might and main. He will
thus organize q standing "clbOw-to-
elbow" movement, and quit the old
endless, and endlessly unsuccessful,
game Of merely opposing things
without having anything to put in
the place of the thing opposed. He
intends to organize, if he can, an af-
tirmative democracy in the house at
any rate, and thru the house in the
entire country. His watchword
from now on will be ''face front,
forward march," and charge the en-
emy at every point of the line,
keeping off the defensive ourselves
and put him on it. The republican
party is right now the party Of ne
CATION i'll the country. 1t is in IA
vor of standing pat" and "letting
well enough alone" as if things

favor the candidacy OF Mr.. Hearst
proved boomerang. They thought
they were getting away from the
Hearst movement, and away from
the Hearst papers. They have got
away from neither. The chances are
that Mr.. Hearst will start 4 paper in
the city Of st. Louis that will be a
! democratic paper to the core, and
! not q wishywashy, milk and water,
! good-lord-good-deviI sort Of sheet.
! and the delegation from Missouri in
! congress are rejoicing thereat; also
the fact that they conceded the liza
bility Of Il Hearst stampede in
Chicago comedies the strength OF
Mr.. Hearst in The republican state
Of Illinois, and one that We must
carry III order to win at the polls
.s1Xt November, and thus argues that
he is the strongest man in the state
whom we can nominate.
If that be the case, Mr.. Hearst's |
friends now arc arguing, then is he |
not the strongest and best man we |
can nominate, and the man with |
whom it is easiest to win?
They all say that victory is the
great desidcratum in the next cam
paign, and many of them are willing
to saritice principle in order to get
it. Why not, then, say the Hearst
men, conserve principle and at the
same time WIN a victory that will
mean something, by nominating
Hearst The opportunists who, like
a drowning man, are grabbing at a
straw, have overshOt the mark, and
have gwen the Hearst movement an
impetus here among the leaders of
the party that refuses to down at the
bidding of trust tools and Wall street
sharks. Those of the recalcitrantl
gang who came here to laugh at the
Hearst boom have gone away with
Il bad case of the dry grins.
