Russian Commission Presents the
Question 10 the Car.
st. Petersburg, Sept. 9-The ques-
ton Of contraband Of war as contained
in the American and British notes was
presented 70 the emperor by the com
mission which has been considering
the subject. There were present the
ministers for foreign affairs, justice,
marine and war. Foreign Minister
Lamsdorff, who throughout has been
favorable to the American and British
contentious, made strong argument
in support Of his position and was
warmly seconded by nj. Muravieff,
minister of justice.
An opinion by Professor de Martens,
professor Of international law at the
University Of st. Petersburg, also IA
vorable. was presented No decision
was reached. but the emperor plainly
manifested his sympathy with Count
Lamsdorf's view and at the conclusion
of the audience urged the ACCESSIBILITY
Of a prompt decision. In consequence
of the emperor's utterances the for
eign Office is greatly encouraged, and
1t is believed that a decision will soon
be reached

Democratic Party Not a Machine.
The Democratic party is not machine:
It is body Of citizena who believe that
on the whole its fundamental principles
are best adapted to the conduct of the
government
Among so many patriotic and intelli-
gent men it Is Inevitable that divergence
o opinion as to minor questions and diff
ferences Of view as TO the correctness Of
the disposition Of dead issues should be
found The party Is concededly united
today as to every vital article OF faith
which can reasonably enter into the pend
ing canvass.
Our adversaries are intrenched. in full
possesSon OF every department of the
government and It is a mistaken policy
that would drive away voters who would
help to GUST them. The cause cannot be
advanced by attacks on others within the
party with whom we have had disagree
ments, but who are now working with
us for a common result
All men who have attained any degree
of prominence have their friends, and the
exercise of ordinary prudence forbids the
alienation OF allies who are willing and
anxious to assist. The coming election is
not to be determined by the September
vote in hopelessly Republican states,
where local issues and candidates even
are grievously handicapped, but the re-
suit in Vermont on Tuesday admonishes
us and there can be no harm in giving
voice TO the admonition. that a harmoni-
GUS cooperation Of all and the elimination
Of personal. fractional and unimportant
differences involving no surrender Of prln-
ciple are essential to success
