The Sage of Esopus Explains.

Esopus, N. Y, Nov. 1O.-Judge
Parker last night gave out a state
ment concerning the election and the
future of the democratic party.
After expressing gratitude to those
who assisted him in the campaign,
and saying that he accepted the nom
nation because he thought It his du-
~ to do so. Parker says:
'.The party has in the near future
a great mission. Before long the
people will realize that the tariff-fed
trusts and Illegal combinations are
absorbing the wealth of the nation.
Then they will wish to throw off these
leeches, but the republican party will
not aid them to do it, for its leaders
appreciate too well the uses to which
monies of the trusts can be put in a
political campaign.
When that time comes and conn
it will, the people will turn TO the
democratic party for relief. and the
party should be ready-ready with
an organization of patriotic citizens
covering every election district. who
are willing TO work for the love Of
the cause-an organization supported
by as many town, city, country and
state officers as we are able to elect
IT, the meantime.

Defeat of Policy,

Mr.. Bryan says Parker's defeat
should not be considered a personal
one. Gle was the victim Of unfavor-
able conditions and of mistaken party
policies. So-called conservative dem
ocrats charged the defeats of 1896
1900 10 the party's position on the
money question and insisted that vic
tory could be won by dropping the
coinage question entirely. The con
ventlon accepted this theory and the
Platform made no reference to the
money question, but Parker felt 1t
was his duty to announce his personal
adherence to the gold standard.
Mr.. Bryan calls attention to reor-
ganizers being in complete control,
chat they had the support of those
who left the party in two previous
campaigns as VOL as those who re-
niained with it then.
Conservatism Was Fatal.
Silver, he says, cannot be blamed
for the defeat. nor can it be charged
tc the condemnation of the trusts. for
the trusts We're not assailed as rig
orously as they were four years ago.
IL is evident that the campaign did
not turn upon the question OF impe-
rialisn. The result, he says, was due
to the fact that the democratic party
attempted TO be conservative in the
presence of conditions which demand
radical remedies. IL sounded a par
tial retreat when it should have Or
dered a charge all along the line.
He charges that the republicans had
the support of plutocracy, and added.
The democratic party has nothing
to gain by catering to organized and
predatory wealth It must not only
do away with such support, but it can
strengthen itself by inviting open and
emphatic opposition to these ele-
ments."
'The democratic party" he con
tinued, "if il hopes TO win success.
must take the side of the plain com
mon people,"
Must BE Radical.
"The election" says Mr.. Bryan,
has opened the eyes of hundreds of
thousands of honest. well-meaning
democrats who few months ago IA
vored the reorganization of the party.
These men now see that they must
either go into the republican party or
join with the democrats of the west
and south into making the democratic
party a positive. aggressive and pro-
sressiye reform organization. There

RUssIA's CECIL RHODES.

M. Bezobrszoff, the Grafter Whose In-
 trigues Brought on the Present War.
 It is clear that all the time Count Lainsdorff wished peace and equally clear that Russia's policy was not guided by it's official State Department, but by some stronger power in the background. It was M Bezobrazoff, the Russian Cecil Rhodes The record e this man. whose name is not to be found as holding any Government posi- ton in the Russian pages of the Al manach de Gotha," is thus described by a correspondent:
 At a moment when Russia was talk ing no particular action in the Far East, this man proved his services to the Emperor by securing for him an immense revenue from his Far East ern esta tes. At the same time ne ot- tained for himself the reversion of var ious concessions. The success which distinguished his administration of the Emperors private affairs led his master to withdraw him from the Far East and to place him in the Foreign Office
 
 ern Affairs. He attracted the atten- ton Of the Grand Duke Alexander Michaelovitch, whose support he ulti- mately secured. It is impossible to say quite who were the supporters of M. Bezobrazoff, but in little time his in l f1uence over the Emperor became para mount, and he proceeded to begin the work of precipitating a. crisis which would make him and his friends mas 1 ters of the hidden wealth of Manchuria 1 He represented to His Majesty the ne- cessity for peace, while he worked in the interests os war without pause. He snaly drove M de Witte out of power He then turned his attention to a man whose sagacity in Far Eastern affairs had already attracted his atten- | tion-Admiral Alexieff. Gradually working upon his feelings by granting him concessions and sharing with him certain profits, M Bezobrazoff made I him understand that the supremacy of Russia in Manchuria would realize a fortune for himself.
 His action in this respect was sim | gularly well judged. A forward move- ment across Asia was essential to his |
 plans and that step moment when 1 the success of his schemes had seemed assured, the outbreak of the Boxer trou- bles turned the trend of events, impos- l ing checkmate upon his plans. It was, however by this outbreak that M Bezobrazoff contrived to accomplish his end. since as the result of the dis 1 turbances he secured the appointment of Admiral Alexieff to be at first Cover nor General and then the Viceroy of l Greater Russia in the Far East
 'The command of the Czar's forces at sea was already in the hands of Ad- miral Alexiefi, and it was but step nearer to war to concentrate in the hands of the same man the reins of the civil authority. By this means a path was laid for the developments toward

COUNTRY ROADsIDEs.

We know that there are people to whom concrete walk and a close shaven lawn constitute the summit of landscape beauty. In their proper places, these things are eminently de- sirable But it would be simply horrible to see all the country roads of Dart mouth and Westport and Acushnet and Rochester and Marion and Mattapoisett and all the rest brought to any approxi-
 nation of such a dead level of trigness. Something like this is seen in the great fruit districts of Southern California
 One can ride for miles through well-kept roads bordered on either side by sym- metrical, far-reaching orange and lemon groves. They are scrupulously neat and orderly. Not a weed disfigures their broad expanse. Every tree is exactly like every other tree. Their dark glossy green spreads in beautiful Iunisprimty over thousands of acres. At the edge of the roadside on either hand may be long rows of palms. al-

 thrill of intense of delight at the heau- ty of the scene. and surroundings And it is fair too, to say that the sense of admiration never departs. But in a little while-well we once heard New

which M Bezobrazof was gradually forcing his country. The committee which had been formed in St. Peters burg and which was interested in the Far Eastern development ignored the Drotestations of the Minister of War, Gen, KuroDatkin. The word of the committee was all-powerful, their infiu- ence was paramount and NJ. Bezobra- zoff saw to it that their orders were obeyed.
 "4n point of fact they gave nc orders. since they were already caught in the meshes of the net which he had woven So cleverly. If the prospect of war with Japan became forced upon them, he explained it in a moment with a gesture, with an assurance that the island Empire was only defying the majesty of Russia in order to exploit sor itself the resources of Korea. This view was accepted until the very end, no one being more surprised at the turn Of events than the Czar, his Grand Dukes and his Ministers. Too late, however, the Grand Duke Alexander discovered the intrigue, and although if brought about the dismissal of M Bezo- brazoff. it was no longer possible to control the destinies or the fortunes of his country"
 Bezobrazoff is now in Switzerland, in disgrace. it is said; but in his beloved Far East. in the grimnest sense, his works live after him.-New York Sun.

GETTING A L1NEeoN JAPAN.

Janan is military first of all. A Rus
 sian. arguing with an American that hls
 country's sympathies were misplaced,
 wonld not, if he were very intelligent, talk too much about supposed friendli-
 ness in the Civil War and the American Revolution. He would put most enl- phasis or the warliSe nature of the Japanese and the peace-loving and com- mercial character of the Russians. IT Japan become a great power, he would declare, the Monroe Doctrine for Asia will speedily make it's appearance.
 Japan will then dictate our behavior
 in Asia as calmly as we now dictate to
 Europe about South America. More over. the stunning daring of the Jap-
 anese, combined with their gifts for military organization and their eager-
 ness for fight, would leave them, if vic- torius in the present conflict, in mood 1 to speak firmly whenever in the future they might see difference between | their interests and ours. This argu-
 ment ignores the fact that Russia might dominate China and establish Monroe Doctrine there as well as Japan, and would not need to have a military spirit to maintain it if she once intrenched herself with sufficient strength. Prob-
 ably the time will come when somebody will be strong enough in Asia to keep l it from being subject to exploitation without reciprocal concession, It may | be Russia, it may be Japan,Tor it may we'll be China herself. In any case, there is no cause to speak of any of these possible Asiatic powers as perils. Europe has received from Asia, during 1 the centuries, much that is best in her
 civilization, as well as blows that have l set her back for ages. It is impossible l to tell whether the next burst of power
 from that direction would bring good or evil to humanity. Statesmen can
