Calves are not going to be-

mites that cannot be very remote.
Already the advance guard of
the spring calf crop from the
immense dairy districts cOntigu-
GUS to Chicago has made it's ap-
pearance and knocked prices
from their high pedestal. Milk is
high and dairymen are not going
to feed it to calves, but the policy
of shipping light, 100 pound
calves to the stock yards is a
poor one, as they are hard to sell
at any price and are frequently
condemned. This calf crop is evil

With the opening of the Suez canal
there was a profound alteration of
trade, and the most important routes
now start not from Mauritius or the
cape but from the Red sea. Hundreds
OF steamers. laughing at winds and
currents, pass annually from Alden to
Bombay and Colombo on the one hand
and to East African ports, Madagascar,
Mauritius and Seychelles on the other.
From Colombo, again, there are repu.

But except on the lines from the

He thinks these ideas "Sumclently

It will no longer be necessary" for him

Hearst. We think he is the most con-
siderable figure in the national DEM
ocratic party, its most powerful indi-
vidual and its most impossible candi-
date. He will be the Warwick OF his
party, the maker of its candidates and
of its presidents if it ever elects any.
1t is no wonder that the great COM
moner showers him with obsequious
attentions.
The New York Times is right when it
says the democracy. like Gaul. is divid-
ed into three parts. 1t used to be ar
rayed only in the two hostile camps OF
Bryan and anti-Bryan. There is now,
in addition to these. a powerful Hearst
faction. Mr.. Hearst will have great
authority in determinging the future
course of his party both as to candi-
dates and rs to policies. He has the
New York state machine, and that is
an important asset is the eyes OF the
national democracy. He has his pow
erful array of newspapers throughout
the country, and they are force to
be reckoned with in the counsels of
his party. He has his own personally
conducted parties in various states.
and while his purse is long and open
,, he will have no. difficulty in maintain
| ing these as weapons to whip the re-
calcitrant democratic organization in
| to line with his wishes. With his for
tune and his ambition and his domin-
ancy in his counsels of the national par
ty should never grow less But he has
+, won his success at the cost of his
highest ambition. He will never be
candidate for the presidency. Bosses
are seldom candidates and his power
and influence in his party are those
OF 4 boss.
There is nothing more futile than
the efforts of the so-called conserva-
tives to reorganize the democratic
party. Mayor Mcclellan and HI.
friends and allies in New York will &C.
complish nothing. The corresponding
group in the national party are pow
erless to elect president. Their last
futility was the Parker campaign. Mr..
Hearst has sufficient power in the par
ty nationally to prevent the nomination
OF another Parker. He has only to
threaten to put up his own radical
democrat in opposition to any conser-
vative to convince the convictionless
as he did in New York Of the folly of
opposing his mandates. He is in
strong position to control the future
of his party, all the stronger for his
disavowal Of intention to seek Office
himself. The next democratic candi-
date for president can get l.s nomina-
ton only as result of SOME deal with
Hearst. The conservative democrat"
says the Times, which is usually their
| spokesman. will continue. to vote for
republican candidates"
