THOROUGHLY EXPOSED.
The Weakness of Parker nnd Davis
Grows Palmer bach Day.

1t appears that JuIgc Parker of
ESopus is going to New York city 70
run his own campaign. The revelation
has come, but it has cone more Sw fly
than most of us expected. The rcvela-
tion is simply this-that the idea of tho
country that the Democrats had nomi

years ago the country knew nothing If

Il purpose. by the men wlo controlled the
Democratic national convention. How
clear to everybody now must he the sit.
uation. Instead of this stately judge
who sent the stately telegram To ST.
Louis. appears, and for all permanency.
merely n decent creature of the famous
New York politician, David Bennett
Hill.
Ii is all queer. Ii appears So unsuh.
stantial and Indifferent that Hill could
have nominated one Of his creations for
the Presidency!
As the days pass in this autumn Of
1901 the eyes of the American people
are opening as to the political situation.
There is no anguish following the open.

exhibition Of Il certain eNuberance neN

II is impossible that such n pcopl,

Will BE Elected.

T.. II. Hartman. one of the hest in
formed railway officials in the country,
says II continuation OF national pros
perity is assured Recently he said to
II New York Herald reporter:
conditions which IN other years
caused panic aud national distress do
not now exist. In all localitics--in Ne
hraska and Kansas. in the Fast and the
Far West-thc local m%oncyed interests
are conservative. II is possible TO in
veStigate with accuracy any financial or
industrial question. The small money
ccntcrs as well as the large ones are
well supplied with funds. and this fact
insures careful investment and mini
mics risk. There has bccn a slow,
steady enhancement of values, and it is
still going on"
When asked for his opinion on tho
probable outcome of the election. he said;
1T will be Roosevelt and Fairbanks.
Every one wants them. No II can af.

PARkER'S DEFICIT SCARE.
II Is Kasily Exploded by an Appeal
to Facts and Figures.

The Ulster County candidate. labor
ing hard over Judge Parker's speech to
the faithful Democratic editors. scisSOred
out some statistics with which to ham
mer the Republican administration. But
while the judge was t0ilinS over his
empty sentences.
Ellis cogitative faculties immersed
In cogibundity OF cogitation,"
his aptitude for figures went on a vaca-
ton and he prepared, or accepted, some
very queer conclusions. which he gave
10 the admiring editors with much pomp
and circumstance.
The trouble is that the Ulster County
politicians deficit is not Il deficit at
all. when it comes to realities. The Re-
publicaus dclightelly accept the chal-
lcngc of the Democratic candidate, for it
gives them a chance to show Il few sta
t~iStics themselves
Judge Parker asserts" says a Wash
ington dispatch 10 the Chicago Chron-
icle. that there is now Il deficit of $40
WO,OOU. instead Of "A surplus OF $4,000
600. which Mr.. Roosevelt found on be-
coming President. Both statements are
reckless. rs "A careful examination OF
the records OF the treasury will show.
In regard to the deficit. the receipts and
expenditures for the fiscal year ending
June 30. 1904, show an apparent deficit
OF S4O,OOO.OW in round numbers, but
dnring that time the United States paid
S5O,GO0,Oo0 for n Panama canal and ad-
Nanced S4.5OO,OOO to the Louisiana pur.
chase exposition, which latter amount is

Mr.. Parker will deduct his apparent def
cit of SI2,OOO,OOO from the $54.5OO, UOO
paid for the purchase of the Panama
canal and the encouragement OF an ex-
position Of worldwide scope and impor-
lance, he would find n balance OF ST.

DEMOCRATS ADMISSION.
Pnrkcr's Party Afraid to stand on Its
Past Record.

John Il. Stanchfeld. one of the leaders
OF the New York Democracy, said in a
speech at Schenectady:
They dhc Dcmocrats) do not stand on
their past. hut they present II live utter
probation Of live issues"
Truly, the Democratic party does not
stand on its past. 1t darcs not stand
on its past-on its advocacy OF free
coinage of silver. on its demand for the
hauling down Of the flag in the Philip
pines, on the business paralysis that
marked the last period during which the
Democratic party was in control Of the
government; on its declaration that the
war for the preservation of the Union
was a failure. on all the laundering op.
position OF which its history is a con
tinuous record.
The Democratic party does not and
dares not stand upon its record. because
its record would discrcdit the most en-.
ticing promises that it could make.

SUGGESTIONS TO DEM0CRN
Great Thoughts Of Great DE ocr
should Ic Widely Circulated.

The Democratic party IL hoasting ot
the fact that in this campaign it is
sending out u great number of tons OF
literature. though why literature should
be sent out by the Democratic party no
one can understand. Upon second
thought. though. it must le admitted.
rs a matter Of fairness in speaking OF
people who vote the Democratic ticket,
that quite n number Of them can read.
However. this IL merely n suggestion
To- the men whose business IL IN to handle
the Democratic campaign OF education.
To he consistent they must keep up
the campa .gn lies. In their tons Of lit.
eraturc they must first rcftcrate the
falschood of Senator Bailey OF Texas,
when he declared in n recent speech
that the President advocated lynching
as n punishment for stealing.
They should issue a few million
pamphlets advocating the attitude Of
Iemocracy's great representative,
Champ Clark, in assuming that when

Gratis might do with their money In cir

grateful for these suggestions, but the
chances are ten to one that they won't.

Democrats Admire Roosevelt.

Radical Democratic newspapers are
forced to admit that President ltoosc-
yelt's letter of acceptance is Il strenuous
presentation of the issues from "A ltepuh.
lean standpoint. Even the New York
World and Denver Times commend the
Presidents keynote" The fact is. there
is not II Democrat in the land who does
not admire Mr.. RooSevelt'S direct way of
going ut things. and all would vote for
him if they could AT the same time re-
tain their party organization. There
will be no real regret among Democrats
when Mr.. Roosevelt is elected. He is
ten times more popular with the mass
Of Democracy than Judge Parker is.
The Red Cloud chief., 1904-09-30
Parker'e Ncipbbors Against Him.

Congressman George J.. Smith of the
Twcrty.fOnrth New Iork District. in
which is JudGc Parker's home, told
President Roosevelt "A few days ago
that he had made II tour of the district
and found no Republicans who would
vote for Parker. II the Democratic
candidate gains no votes among his IL"
publican neighbors. he certainly should
gain none elsewhere. In other words,
if his popularity is not sufficiently great
TO draw votes from those he daily comes
in contact with, he need not expect 10
secure the support of Republicans who
know him only by what he has said and
done.

OF TRUST.
Gold Democrats Stunning the Hill
Sheehnn Combination.


The Gold Democrats Of Indiana are
unwilling TO trust Judge Parkcr's spou-
sors. They are willing to contribute Sl0.-
600 10 the campaign fund. Int the money
will not be sent To the U~ill-Sheehan
combination. They have asked Parker
himself 10 take the money. IL the Demo
Gratis are unwilling to trust their leaders,
how can the mass of the people be eX-
pccted TO take any stock in the profess
SONS and promises of the party? If the
Gold Democrats are correct in their esti-
mate Of Parker's managers. the latter
are no better than Il gang Of Sand-hag'
gers. Sterling X. Holt. one of the lead
ing Gold Democrats Of Indiana, said 4
few days ago: 'Thr Gold Democrats
are not going to l." coaNed behind n
barn and relieved of their money and
then driven To the polls and voted"
II is gratifying Ia learn that such a
man aS Mr.. Holt entcrtains the Sauic
view of Hill and SlrehHn that itelub.
Leans do. hut it is somewhat remarkable
that Mr.. Holt does not realize thar Par
kcr IL merely the creature of his man
ayers, and thar any money given to the
judge will find its way. through some
channel, to Democratic headquarters.
