questions of interest to the party will be
sbrought up for discussion. We hope th f'

q he rumor that has gained currency

If gained by debauching the suffrage

The mission$o OF the Democratic party
is to promote the principles Of Democ-
Tacv. and Democracy means the rule OF
the people. If Democracy stands for any
thing 1t stands for a pure, Impoverished
and unpurcha BILE suffrage. The stream
cannot be better than It's source. No.

voters. II we have a dcbauched SUI

means Of debauching the suffrage than

use OF money It corrupts tho members.
OF its own hoVIellold. !, 1t were as though
the head Of "a fsl,Ay should dtbauch his

Democracy not only to protect and pre-
serve the rights OF The people, but to
promote free government and there can

This matter Is in the hands OF the Ma

OF the party is in Its keeping II is for
the committee to say whether the claims
of the Democracy will be submitted In

way Of Democratic simplicity and hon.

There Is no such thing as truse success

middle link remains to be built, but Will
be open for work by next spring.
This does not look as II Russia was
anticipating getting out Of Asia, whether
Japan is successful nll along the line or
not. The fact remains that Russia, with
the irresistible force Of tho needs OF her
enormous population behind her, will GER
tainly get an ice free port some where
on the Pacific. At present Russia has
a road running along the northern border
sof Persia, which passes through the
great Asiatic cities OF Bokhara. Khohand
and Tashkend. This road Is connected
BY steam ferries across tho Caspian with
a railroad that terminates at Baku on
the western shore of the Caspian. Baku
is hne OF the greatest oil ports In the
world, and has more than unusual inter-
est by reason OF tho recent report that
John D.. Rockefeller has acquired It as,
we'll as the American oil fields. This
road through Bokhnra and Tashkend Is
about one hundred and & fifty miles north
OF Afghanistan and 8paralels its north
sern border. a fact which is doubtless
present in the minds Of the British war
office in their preparation for the prophe-
sled Russian invasion Of India.
lis a striking fact that though the
general budget this year for public works
was cut off almost entirely by reason
of the expense of war In the East. Rus;
sia has none the less made the Sappropria.
