administration is anxious for Demo, cratic help in congress. That 1t will get 1t. there Is no doubt; but whether he will get enough is another and an important question.
 Over in Virginia, Democratic orators are lauding the Presidents stand on the railway issue. Last Saturday night at big party rally in Richmond tne mention of Roosevelt's name was heartily applauded, and the speakers appealed for support of the President. A. C. Braxton, one of the leading Dem ocrats of the State, referred to the Re- publican chief as The bitter foe of Democracy" but who had been con his way to Damascus.
 Theodore Roosevelt today, said MT. Braxton, Ifs ain advocate Of some of the best and soundest Democratic doctrines, as against what is taught by his own party It behooves us 10 indorse him, for he must look to the Democratic party for assistance.
 If the Democrats in Congress should measure, giving 1t their undivided sup port. they would present a rare ana very remarkable spectacle. The only time the Democrats united!y supp0r9eu their own administration atter tne Giv- il War was in the passage Of the Wil- son tariff bill. While, they have not recently had much to say on the rail- road question. it Is by no means to pc presumed that they will unitedly sup bort the administration because certain members of the party agree with the President. Much will depend with not a few Demdcrats upon how far the rights of the States are involved In the measure to be put toward for their support There are. be it remembered vet remaining some old fashioned Dem ocrats who believe with Thomas Jeff ferson in that Wise and. frugal Gov ernment which shall restrain men from inturfng one another. and leave them otherwise free to regulate their own pursuits of industry and Improvements; and that other sentiment of JeffersonS first inaugural address. In which he said: Horticulture. manufactures, com merce and navigation, the four pillars of our prosperity, are most thriving when left free to individual enter prise"
