TWO YOUNGSTERS
LEAVE HOME
Mother OF One Appeals to
the Evening Journal to
Find Boy
WAS OLDEST Of FINE CHILDREN
Had No Work For Two Weeks and
Became Disheartened-To Another
Boy With Him and Boarded Freight
Train For New York.

The appeal Of a mother to The Even
ing Journal to find her boy for her led
to the discovery this morning, that two
OF Wilmington's young element left the
city for parts unknown yesterday and
as yet no trace of them has been found.
The boys are James Houghton, Of No.
1lS Justison street, and Edward Duffy,
OF No. sol West Third street. Both
were chums and Of the same age IA
years. and 1t is believed that they mi-
grated to other parts together.
The letter IN which the mother Of
young Houghton appeals to The Even
ing Journal was received at this office
this morning. II follows:
Dear Sir; / take The Evening Jour

boy for me. He is IA years old and
his name is James Houghton. When he
left home he wore a pair Of long pants.
an old shirt without a collar and torn

When a reporter for The Evening
Journal called at No. il3 Justison
street this morning and made known
his business, the mother OF the MISS
ing boy half expected to see the run
away jump from behind the newspaper
man and fling himself into her arms.

THE PLATFORM AND PARKER
New York Judge will Stand on Any
Old Thing the Bosses May
Erect for Him.

II the democrats are on the way to the
nomination Of Judge Parker, the ques-
ton of platform becomes somewhat
simplified. He should not be hard
man to fit. He has no political record
that requires to be studied, and he pos
sesses in platform matters the spirit of
accommodation. Witness his accept
ance Of the Chicago and Kansas City
platforms when he was not in agree
ment with either. AS candidate he
could not, Of course, stand upon a re-
affirmation of either of those deliver
ances, or upon platform reproducing in
substance policies which the country
has twice rejected. But he will be a
good man to father generalities, and to
both write and talk around ticklish
topics.
1t was never difficult to fit Mr.. Cleve-
land with platform, even after he had
made record. He stood upon what was
prepared for him. Twice his friends
tried to shape the deliverances to his and
their liking. but both times failed. The
platform which Mr.. German took to st.
Louis in 1888 was very unlike the one
which Mr.. Watterson induced the con-
vention to adopt, but the change made
no difference with Mr.. Cleveland. He
desired the German platform, but will
ingly accepted the other. The main
thing was the denomination, and that
had come TO him without contest.
Something like this took place again
| four years later at Chicago. The mer
who were there making the fight for Mr.
Cleveland tried again to soften the plat
form on the tariff question. They
played openly for straddle. But their
defeat did not disturb Mr.. Cleveland
He accepted the platform adopted as
readily as he would have done the one
his friends had fought for. The main
thing was the nomination, and Mr..
Whitney and his little black satchel had
secured that.
Here, then, says the Chicago Tribune,
would appear to be precedent enough
for Judge Parker. The nomination is
the thing. He can stand upon any plat
form which the st. Louis convention, if
influenced by the spirit Of moderation
and compromise, may adopt. And then
he may turn to the Bryan people and
say: Il voted with you twice when not
in sympathy with your views, Come,
now, we are not trying case in court

CLEVELAND NOT OUT OF 1T.
Wall Street Gamblers May Yet Bring
About Nomination Of the
Ex-President.

In the memoirs of Henry Willard Is
found the story of presidential boom
in the making A money king of Wall
street originated the Cleveland move
ment in 1892. His sole object was
financial legislation on lines of his
own convictions. He drew to his side
other money kings, and together they
rugged the political market for Cleve-
land stock. BY the time the democrats
of Grover Cleveland, four more years
of Grover!" had drowned all othec
cries. Silver men, tariff reformers, all
sorts and conditions of democrats. wcre
shouting it, and everybody was led TO
expect that the return of Mr.. Cleveland
to the white house would mean tri-
umph for his own particular brand Of
democracy. The silver men were as
sured that Mr.. Cleveland would do
the right thing by the white metal"
Tariff reformers were encouraged to
see the dawn of free trade. Organized
labor was assured that wages would
rise and work become abundant.
But the real Cleveland boomers had
in view only one thing, viz: the es'
tablishment of the single gold stand
ard. 1t was for that, and that alone
they were maneuvering. they knew
that the silver men would be bitter
ly disappointed. They cared nothing
about free trade, and they had never
been solicitous about labor. Mr.
Cleveland's election, therefore. de-
veloped them in force, and forthwith
they set out to secure what they were
expecting, and had been promised al
his hands. And they won. Mr.. Cleve-
land was inaugurated in March, and
in August congress met in special ses-
sion at his call to enact financial legis-
lation. The tariff reformers contend
ed in vain that the tariff should have
preference. The silver men, when Mr..
Cleveland's recommendation appeared,
asserted openly that they had been be-
trayed. The highways end byways
were presently full of unemployed
men. And SO the democratic party
practically went to pieces and the adj
ministration was a failure.
Again there is Cleveland boom,
says the Washington Star, and Wall
street is behind it, The democratic
party has never shouted more Justify
for free silver than 1t has against the
trusts. The southern men in particu-
lar have made Wall street and its mo-
nopolistic operations their text for
many years. Will they go over to the
Wall street candidate now, upon the
assurance that Mr.. Cleveland will do
the fair thing by them" in the matter
of their old contention? Put forward
by >the trusts, and elected by them
would not Mr. Cleveland follow their
suggestions and serve their interests
in all things affecting them? We mag
be certain that he would.

Tammany Tiger Is Growing


Tammany hall came to Albany on spe-
cial trains the other day, and with
hatchets In hand, to show David B. Hill
that they are democrats still-and not
so very still. AS arbitrary as ever In his
use Of power, Hill forced Judge Parker
down the threats Of the New York city
democrats. Their gorge rises at the
dose, and they cannot repress the chok-
ing sound in their throats. The bitter
feeling which has been aroused by Hills
autocratic assumption Of authority will
not be allayed, and the democratic party
in this state will enter into the national

that the Sabbath was made for man

that He was Lord even of the Sabbath

that He was the Son Of God and re-
