FUTURE OF DEMOCRACY.
Parker Responds to Toast at Jeffer.
son Day Banquet.


NEW YORK, April 13.-Seven
hundred Democrats attended the JEFF
ferson day banquet at the Democratic
Club of New York at the Waldorf
Astoria tonight Many of national
reputation were there, and chief
among these was former Judge Alton
3. Parker. Democratic nominee for
President last November.
In addition to Parker the speakers
were United States Senator Newlands
of Nevada, Mayor Mcclellan of New
York City, Congressman Rainey Of
Illinois and J. ]. Willet Of Alabama.
Parker was the first speaker and
he was enthusiastically received.
Frequently he was interrupted by ap-
plause. The speech was on the
future of the Democratic party and
was replete with suggestions for har-
mony and urgent appeals against Sec
tionalism. Parker said in part:
When analyzed the Democratic party. In all
its past history has been true TO few gen
eral ideas and policies. They may be enumer-
ated follows:
]. A strict Interpretation OF the constitution
which implies resistance 10 Capitalization by
the Federal Government because II is opposed
TO the fundamental idea OF our system of
that all human experience shows that thar
way danger lies.
taxes with strict regard to the Industrial in
terests of all our people. whether producers
consumers. whether manufacturers farm
ers or workmen and always at rates which,
while Just 10 all. shall be essentially revenue
producing, thus eliminating monopoly and
fsvortism.
3. Constant. unremitting attention to hon.
est economical expenditure Of the taxes COL
lected from the people, and
e. Non-interference IN the political AFFAIR.",
Of other nations. thus making entangling al
nances impossible as they are undesira BILE
and un-American.
These ideas are as vital as they were in
include in their logical ramincations. every
policy that come before people for
legitimate discussion and settlement If. as
8 natural corolleTy. they are supplemented by
the rigid unremitting enforcement OF the GRIM
inal law in both nation and States, there is
not much room for the intrusion OF outgrown
customs. or for new-fangled forms Of hysteria
and humbug.
II then we. as Democrats. prove ourselves
trse 10 a real and genuine reform OF tarifr
abuses bringing American common sense to
their suppression IL We shall only apply our
selves 70 this great and commanding question
with the courage devotion 70 principle and
regard for the interests of all the people which
so distinguished Grover Cleveland, will not
only deserve and command the support of the
great body OF consumers but also invite that
OF progressive and INTELLIGENT manufacturers
who in all historical fiscal agitations have
finally given up their special privileges and
attached themselves 10 a system from which
at least some OF the manacles had been re-
moved. BY so doing We shall eliminate evils
and abuses from our industrial system and
promote real progress.
Mayor Mcclellan was somewhat dis
concerted by the cordial greeting he
received He closed his address by
saying:

Greatness of Missouri,

out the nation have learned that
Missouri is the most productive
of all our states, and will soon
be the wea ATHEIST one," says the
st. Joseph Gazett. Hon. w.

able lawyer and brilliant orator

in Hardin college. and took for
his subject. missouri He set
forth the greatness of the

the spirit of progress manifest.
ed by our people. He also
shows that Missouri having
been admitted into the Uuion in
1921, as the twenty-third mem.
Der, has already climbed the
armament until she has reached
her present rank, never losing
any of the prestige attained.
Backed by statistics that can
not be questioned, he proves
that Missouri leads the world
i'll corn and wheat, and in COM
parison with Illinois, Kansas,
Iowa and Nebraska leads them
all in the value of her farming
and stock industries. AS the
home of fine horses she is
second only to Kentucky. We
are the greatest mule producing
country in the world, and no
state has equaled us in
premiums for fine cattle, The
mining interests are of greater
value than the outputs of Colo
RADIO and California. In the
twenty mostimportant products
of the country Missouri is the
only state that produces all of J
them, while there is only one I
other state which can at all
rank with her, and it produces
only eleven of the twenty.

and its educational interests,

the long end of the board 1t was a
pretty good game from the standpoint
of the spectators, the hits being Law

up to the average.
The Regulars went in to win from
the call of time, having five runs to
their opponents none at the begin

collected their two tallies, Lewis and
Daley making the circuit on Russ
Halls error, a dead ball, Henderson'g

Charley Hall did the twirling for the

by ASSOCldteu tItNSs
WASHINGTON, March 24.-Orders
have been issued to Ambassador Nc
Cormick, the retiring ambassador to
Russia, to proceed Immediately to Paris.
This is being explained as being not on
the ground Of any diplomatic emergency
at the French capital but solely because
of the presidents desire that Henry
White, former secretary of the embassy
at London and just appointed ambas-
sador to Italy, should take UP his post
at Rome at the earliest possible mo-
ment
The projected international agricul-
tural congress, in which the Italian
government has succeeded in interest
ing President Roosevelt; the attitude of
Italy toward Santo Domingo; the prob
abilities of peace negotiations in the
near future, involving combined action
by the European powers, and several
other diplomatic matters of Importance,
all new and therefore preferably to be
dealt with by the incoming ambassa-
dor, are some of the reasons assigned
for sending Mr.. White at once to Rome.
Ambassador Meyer will proceed at
once to st. Petersburg.

BRINEY K AND OLE WILL
NOT PACE THIS AFTERNOON
Henry Berry Declines to Permit His
Horse to Run Against the
Northern Crack

The Los Angeles Driving club an
nounces that the free-for-all trot be-
tween ole and Briney K is declared off
for this afternoons matinee. In sub
stitutlon of this race these two horses
will race to pole to beat the track rec
ord of 2;261a, which was made by Bas-
tiana and General Wilkes several years
ago. This horse ole, 1t will be remem-
bered,. is the one that Pop" Henderson
brought from the north especially to
beat Brlney K. At the last meeting
Henry Berry claimed that Briney was
not in condition to do himself Justice,
and accordingly he did not race against
ole. 1t would appear now that Briney
has improved sufficiently to step by the
side Of ole. Mr. Berry's extremities
evidently have warmed UP some with
the sudden change of the weather so
that he will permit Briney to start with
ole hitched to the pole so that Ole cam
not OUTRAGE him.
There will be seven races, beginning
promptly at 1880, everything being free
as usual.
