THE REoRcANIzed DEMOCRACY.

For some time previous to the cleo
ton We heard good deal about "re-
organizing the Democracy
The plan of recognizing was to al
low the gang of traitors who put up
the Palmer and Buckner ticket in 96
to take command and place the party
on a sound basis" Messrs: Hill,
Cleveland, Belmont and Sheenan. then
assumed the job of recognizing.
Their idea was to form a big stock
company of the Democratic party.
The six million voters who voted for
Bryan were to have the common stock
and the twenty-five thousand traitors
who voted FOR Pa::cer and nuckner
were to have the preferred stock
The dividends paid on the preferred
stock were the main Offices. The
common stock carried with it the right
to carry a torch. yell for the ticket
and vote
Bryan fully explained and exposed
this plan but the Convention crushed
him down with the Hill and Belmont
"reorganizers" in full control Of the,
Convention and the candidate, the
fight opened.
The result already known shows one
of the most crushing defeats in the
history of the party. 1t is apparen:
to the most casual observer that no
other candidate could have been NAM
ed who was candidate before that
convention who would not have poiled
more votes than the Sphinx Of Esopus
whom Hill and Belmont crammed
down the throat of the convention
Bryan, derided and insulted by that
gang of incompetents now rises from
the ashes Of Democracy the courage
GUS advocate of sound principles and
is today the grandest figure Of all.
Had half his advice been taken by
the pygmies Who derided his utteran-

ic party from the wilderness into
which it has been led by the incompe
tent and treacherous politicians OF
the State Of New York.
Bryan put it in few words when
he said.
The result was due to the fact wher
the Democratic party attempted to be
conservative in the presence OF con
ditions which demanded radical RENE
dies. 1t sounded ia partial retreat
when it should have sounded charge
all along the line.
