II evidence was lacking that Demo.
Gratis have an abiding faith in their
party and its principles, it was sup
piled by the spirit which dominated
the great gathering in Lafayette, Ind
few days ago. What is true Of the
feeling there is true Of the party mem
berhip everywhere. The result IN
November, while deplored, has not
stihed the voice OF the people nor
blunted the conscience which, when
thoroughly aroused, will bring about a
better order OF things. The Demo-
cratic party's opportunity is bound to
come ard to come soon, and it must
be prepared TO grasp it.
The sincere well-wishers Of the
President hope that he will be able to
accomplish some OF the things that
have been promised in bis name The
party Of which he is the representative
is in full control of the government.
1t has in its hands all the machinery
necessary to accomplish any end. The
Republican majority in both branches
OF Congress is large. The executive
and administrative departments Of the
government are in Republican hands.
Upon the Republican party must
rest the blame for all failures to re-
lieve the people from the emotions OF
the trusts, the railroads and the un-
justly favored tariff benehciaries. An
honest consideration OF the country's
good would seem to guarantee proper
legislation and its speedy enforcement,
But what do we see? Instead Of de-
creasing the burden OF taxation It Is
proposed to take from the treasury inn
mense sums Of money and bestow them
upon the ship-owners in the form Of
subsidies. Instead Of effective action
against the trusts there are delays and
still delays--as in the case OF the pack
ers' combine. Instead OF taking i'm
mediate steps to reform outrageous
tariff schedules we have White House
conferences which are nulliaed by the
attitude OF Congress. The one who
hopes in the Republican party is GER
tainly man Of much faith in the
faithless. 10 is TO the Democratic par

end, and IL is beginning TO look that

Ordinarily great fortune is built up

The young man who declines to lay the
first stone, because it comes so far
short Of wall, will never make pro-
gress in financial masonry. An i'm
mense proportion OF the people Of this
country live up to their incomes, lay
ing aside nothing for the traditional

Referring to the recent back-down''
OF Governor 0dell OF New York in his
opposition to the reelection OF United
States Senator Chauncey Depew. The
Wall Street Journal, the most con-
sentative and ablest edited Financial
paper In the country, says;
A seat in the United States Senate
In exchange for a seat in the board OF
directors OF the New York Central
Railroad
From the commercial standpoint
such an exchange as this might seem
TO be equitable, fist-class trade in
fact, II there Is any advantage in the
trade on one side or the other, most
people would probably say that it was
on the side Of those who secured the
seat IN the board OF directors OF the
railroad, In these days OF vast cor
porate power seat among the very
elect in the railroad world would seem
to be more desirable than seat with

The prosecution of public land

any authority, have used the govern
ment's unsold domain as if they owned
it. Millions OF acres were fenced in by
them and settlers are kept out by in
timidation. One Of the kings" is re-
ported to have built a fence seven
miles long on government land in Ne
brsska. President Roosevelt ordered
all illegal fences removed. This was
about two years ago, but only a pre-
tense Of obeying the order was made
By the cattle men. Afterward there
was an investigation into the charges
that the barons we're using soldiers,
widows, employees, straw men, COW
boys and relatives in acquiring inn
mense tracts Of public land, but the
investigation was not finished II is
said that powerful political influence
prevented further inquiry. On its
face it must be apparent that such
methods Of getting possession OF the
land are fraudulent and it must be
equally clear that the government
should reclaim its property,
