DIVIDED DEMOCRACY.

The democratic party seems to be
hopelessly divided on the threshold
of the campaign. 1t is divided not
alone on the question of who shall
be the standard bearer, but also on
the far more serious issue of politi-
cal principles. There is only one
point upon which democrats are
united-namely, desire to capture
the offices, and the spoils incident
thereto. Animated by this para
mount issue, they will probably go
long way in mental concession to
patch up their differences. From all
sides the party is beset with diff
culties, brought about in great
measure by sacrificing principle for
expediency in the hope of attracting
voters to their standard. The fusion
with the populist and free silver
parties was prompted by this un-
worthy motive. Expediency was
placed above principle The conse-
quence was their national platform
was loaded down with lot of stuff
which many of the old-line and con-
scientious men of the party could
not swallow. The Chicago platform
of eight years ago has proved a
political Jonah. 1t has hoodooed
the organization ever since. One
wing would gladly throw the Jonah
overheard, but the other element
vetoes all attempts in that direc-
tion. In the coming campaign the
outlook is bright for more unseemly
combinations, and as resultant-a
wider divergence in ideas. The con-
servative wing under the marshal
ship of Cleveland and other stall
warts, are working for Parker of
New York as the standard bearer
On the other hand, Bryan-who
while he is has BEEN as a presi-
dental possibility-is still a power
full factor in the councils of the party
is working with that faction
which favors W. R. Hearst for pres
ident. Hearst, it is well known,
would extend the glad hand to any
ism" outside the pale OF democracy
in order to win. These two opposing
forces will make a bitter fight. The
bitterness of the feud-for that is
what it may be called - extends
throughout the country. 1t is felt
in Amador county. 1t is an every
day occurrence to hear Bryan men
assert that they would not vote for
any democrat who is favored or
championed by Cleveland. Others
are so opposed to Hearst-declaring g
that his democracy is for self-interest
only that they will bolt him if
nominated. Democracy, no matter
what alliances it is enabled to make,
has hard road this fall.
Amador ledger., 1904-04-22
FOR LEGISLATIVE CLEMENCY.

The life term prisoners in San
Quentin are sending out petitions
for the purpose of influencing the
next legislature to take action in
their behalf. 1t is pointed out that
the parole law does not affect the vast
majority of these prisoners. To take
advantage of that law money depos-
it of $25 with the prison authorities
is necessary, and an applicant must
secure employment with some re-
sponsible person. The prisoners are
mostly without friends, without
money, and to these the law holds
out no prospect of relief. No mat
ter how well life termer may con-
duct himself, it does not mitigate
his sentence. There is therefore no
inducement held out for good be-
havior as for other convicts SEN
fenced to a number of years certain.
With them the credit system oper-
ates as an incentive to reformation.
The life-termer's case is hopeless.
Whether he behaves or misbehaves
the outlook is just the same. Death
is the grim iberator; to pass from
the narrow confines of prison walls
to the narrower confines of the
grave. This prospect can only have
the effect of stimulating this class of
prisoners to projects of escape. 1t
tends to drive them to desperation
to deeds of blood in order to gain
their liberty. No doubt many iail-
break has had its origin in this hope
lessness of the convict's lot. It
must be admitted that the life
terms are entitled to some relief,
1t should not be the aim of law to
Danish every spark of hope from the
human mind. In some countries. if
we are not mistaken, a life-sentence
means p years. That is the ex-
treme limit of Imprisonment. The
plea of the San Quentin convicts is
not without merit, and no doubt the
next legislature will take some ac-
tion to limit life-Sentence to a fixed
number of years, with the credit
system operating to keep the pris-
oners on the good behavior list.
