THE DIVIDED DEMOCRACY.
the Rear By Former Party
Leaders.

The only way in which the country
gets chance to remember the name OF
the man who headed the democratic
ticket in 1904 is by the attacks upon
him which are being made by demo
Gratis Congressman Baker, OF New
York. denounces his party for putting
up Parker last year, and says that the
men who stood back of his candidacy
were the heads of the big monopolies
and trusts. Incidentally, too, he re-
marks that the republican party to-day
Is showing the shrewdest politics IL has
ever displayed. 1T is" he says,
giving just enough rope to the south
ern democrats and they are hanging
themselves"
This is double attack on the de-
mocracy by a democrat, says the st.
Louis Globe-Democrat 1t is an rs
sault on the Hiii-Cleveland-B Belmont
element. which Is primarily responsible
TOT the nomination OF Parker. and it
hits the southern faction, which has
begun TO show some prominence in the
party councils since the smash-up on
November s, 1904. Some of the eastern
democrats have been saying that the
way FOR the democracy to be saved Is
lot the southern wing of the party to
assume the leadership. This robust
New York democrat says the democra-
cy has too much south in 1t already
Primarily, this is probably an attack
on Williams OF Mississippi. the party's
titular leader in the house. who has
recently developed an incapacity for
leadership which recalls the old DAVIS of
the laundering OF Richardson and
Bailey when in control Of their party
in the popular chamber
The truth Is, the democracy Is moro
discordant and demoralized nj this
time even that II was in the canvass of
1904, The men who were chiefly re-
sponslble for Parker are utterly dis
credited and cast out. At the same
tlme the south, from which some Aid
was expected in reorganizing the marty
is not contributing anything except
discord to its councils. The one strong
man in the democracy is William ].
Bryan. The Cleveland faction IS prob
ABLY as hostile to him as IL was In 1906
but the masses OF the party are on his
side, and he will probably be nomi-
mated In 1908. In that year radicalism
as represented by the Organized democ-
racy, viii be pitted against conserya
tlsm as exemplifed in the republican
party. II is exceedingly probable that
the party which won in 1904 will be the
victor In 1908 also. but the canvass will
be Tar more exciting that was the one
which ended a few months ago.

PRETTY LITTLE FAN PLAY.
MISS Democracy Tries to Make UP to
the President with Cen
tie Arts.

The attempt of Miss Democracy to fIirt
with the president is something more
than amusing. 1t is amusing enough.
we have not had anything just like II in
our affairs before, says the Washington
star. The lady who protested too much
is widely celebrated. Maybe Miss Dem
ocracy would do well to reflect upon that
ladys history and fate. Mr.. Roosevelt
has heard OF her, we may all be sure. Be
sides, he is not just out of school. and
should not be an easy catch. A little fan
play, handkerchief adroitly dropped. a
furtive glance or two, eyes that smile
and smiles with eyes in them, should not
be deadly with beau who has been out
Tor year or two and knows all the signs
and the way around. Who knows but
that while he Is enjoying the affair he is
yet entirely safe and has no thought OF
straying from his true allegiance?
Miss Democracy is, or seems to be, of
the opinion that the president Is foot
loose and fancy free. She imagines him
In position to go where he likes, with
whom he likes and generally to do as he
pleases. This belief is founded upon the
presidents announcement that he will
not stand for another term, and his ex-
pressed intention to be the representa-
tive OF all the people. She sees him
therefore without trammels or obliga-
tons OF any kind, and accordingly makes
pleasant play for his attention.
But is not that a mistaken view of
matters? The president is in Office now
under promise of carrying forward his
party's policies, and he begins his new
term in March under Instructions re-
ceived at the polls in November. He is
not free lance by any means, and prob
ably has not the slightest thought or de-
sire to become one That he desires the
appreciation of the opposition party is
likely, but only as the party may come
to him. and not as a reward Of his going
to 1t. lie could not 90 TO it without sur
rendering so much Of his duty as would
bring him into such fellowship
The democratic party of course has no
thought of supporting any policies calcu-
lated to strengthen the republican party
in power. Both Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. VIII
liams are just now playing politics. and
the only politics open to them. Their
power is small, and has no value unless IL
can be employed 10 divide the opposition
They will give the president all the help
ut their command If he will use II to the
embarrassment OF his party. and then
they will promptly desert him.
& Mr. Bryan. having lndorsed some
OF President Roosevelts ideas. possibly
hopes that one day the compliment will
be returned.-Washington Star.
1--WE shall he surprised If the south
does not come to understand that IFS
feeling towards the president is based
on misapprehension. He will not abate
his convictions lie will not yield his
manhood But we believe that with the
free, frank, open utterance OF his real
thought and his honest purpose he will
disarm Misunderstanding, and we ex-
pect that the south will come to regard
has as true and sincere friend.-.

THE DYING CONGRESS .
Effort to Be Made to Consider the
Statehood Bill in Conference.

Washington, Feb. 20.-The senate
this week will consider the motion to
appoint conferences on the joint state.
hood bill. The general understanding
is that this action will prevail and
that the bill will go to conference. In
case the committee recedes from the
important senate amendments a sharp
contest probably will ensue.
Nothing but absolutely necessary
legislation is the order in the house
for the week. This legislation so far
as can be indicated in advance will
consist of the completion of the naval
appropriation bill on Monday and con-
sideration of the river and harbor and
sundry civil appropriation bills, a pro-
gram which will occupy the week.
The statehood bill is to be consid-
cred in conference, but there is moth
ing to indicate that an agreement will
be reached before the session is in its
last moments.
The public buildings bill is to be a
matter OF contest between the COM
mittee on rules and those members OF
the house who are enthusiastic in it's
support

Gratis upon railway bill If IL comes over
from the house, with an invitation to the

proposition to put the bill through.
Some democratic senator's who have
been looking into the situation say that
there is possibility Of securing enough
votes from western republicans who are
in favor Of railway rate legislation TO
make majority OF the senate If the SOL

democrats say this would be an object

One fault in this plan is that the demo-
Gratis OF the house intend to oppose the
pending republican bill for the reguIa-
ton Of railway rates. They will offer the
Dayey bill. which was indorsed by the
democratic caucus, as a substitute, and
will be voted down. The scheme OF the

MT Bryan adheres to his position that
while the principles of bimetsllism re-
main true the need Of that ism is mot
so crying" now as it was because OF the
immense increase in the production of

crying and therefore not to be omitted
from the democratic platform.
Asked whether he was q socialist. he

ocratic party believes in some measures
the socialists believe in. That does not
make IL socialistic. II believes with the
populists on some points, but IL is not
therefore populistic. We are said to be
now in accord with the republicans in a
few matters, but We can't be accused of

So Mr.. Bryan-or the democratic par

would be TO beware of the few matters
with which the democrats ARE said to be

an democracy is in accord with Is to be
regarded with suspicion and handled
with tongs.
For instance, there is the proposed
railroad legislation. Mr.. Bryan is i'm

order to secure its enactment. We may
learn the reason from his statement that

Silos and the. Price Of Land.

ID
On u high-priced land it becomes
much larger revenue than he obtained
from the low-priced land. 1t is evi-
dent that he must change his tactics
in the feeding of the dairy COW. The
old practice was to allow his COWS to
run over a large are of pasture and
feed them in winter on hay gathered
from a large area of thin meadow.
Each acre of land, therefore, pro-
duced a minimum of animal food.
Thls was profitable enough when land
was worth SIS an acre, but it cannot
be accepted as a proper method when
lane is worth $500 an acre. Under
some methods of farming now in
vogue, it requires at least S acres Of
a n in pasture and meadow to sup
port a COW a year. Yet man can,
ny building a silo, make one acre of
land support a COW a year. By in
creasing the returns, he increases the
value OF his lands. If every dairy
farmer will put a good silo on his
farm, he will increase its value by
several thousand dollars. A good silo
can be built or purchased at a very
reasonable cost and is one of the best
investments that can be made. But
under no circumstances does it pay
to put up the cheap affairs that will
last at best for only a few years

Asparagus Bed In the Fall.

The asparagus bed must be given
some attention in the fall. The aspara-
gus plant is very ornamental, espe.
clally the female plant hat is covered
with red berries, but the man that is
growing asparagus for the city mar
kets cannot consider the looks. 1t
Is necessary to NOW these plants be-
fore they have seeded the ground.
They should be moved before the
seeds drop, piled up, and when dry
should be burned. This is for the pur-
pose of destroying the seeds, which
if left would produce SO many plants
that the bed would become useless.
This is why the asparagus beds of
amateurs quickly run out. Only the
original roots are to be kept, and the
little asparagus plants that spring up,
hardly more than threads out of the
ground, must be hoed up or plowed
under. They are as destructive to the
asparagus beds as would be weeds.
There is another reason why the seeds
of the asparagus plant should be
burned, and that early in the fall, and
that is because birds carry them over
the farm, and wherever they drop
them asparagus plants spring up.
These. are likely to become trouble
some when they are on fields not an
nually plowed. Lastly, the asparagus
bed in the fall should receive a heavy
dressing off, barnyard manure. 1t
should be applied early enough in the
fall SO that it will decay and be ready
to be used by the plants in the spring.
A spring application always ONE too
late to render full services that year.
The asparagus plant is a rapid grower,
and consequently a gross feeder, and
has to make its growth in the spring
before the ground is fully warmed up,
and while chemical action for the
loosening Of plant food is only mod
erate.-Albert Bates, Du Page Co., Ill,
in Farmers Review.
