Many republican newspapers express
surprise because CT the ample evidence
OF the growing disposition OF the part OF
the American people to turn to the
democratic party. Ono republican
paper save that this tendency is all the
more surprising because the principles
advocated by the democratic party in
1896 are now regarded Us exploded
yagaries' and TINT that defeat was $50
complete as to be crushing" But that
defeat was not nearly go complete as
the defeat OF 1904, when the democracy
under the leadership OF the element that
forsook it in the 1896 campaign, met
disaster.
lie it possible that this republican
editor fails TO understand that but for
the Chicago platform the democratic
party could not have mustered a oor-
poral'e guard in 1896. 1t was, in truth.
the honest, straightforward declaration
OF principles by the democrats in N
vention assembled OF Chicago. that
made it possible for the democratic
party to figure MS a living force in the
politics Of America where, otherwise, it
would have gone to the third or fourth
place had it not, indeed, been obliter at
ed altogether.
There is nothing in the Chicago plat
form that can be pointed to as exploded
vagarios.' The essential principles OF
that platform stand indicated in the
court of public opinion. and the Ameri,
can people show a disposition to return
to the democratic party, because, al
though woiully deceived in 1896, theil
eyes have been opened.
Why should any one be surprised that
the peoples eyes have been opened
Why should any one be surprised tina
the people turn in disgust from thu
party that 80 grossly deceived them il
1896? Have not the revelations beer
sufficient to bring about the awakening
What more do the people need t.
show the utter folly OF putting their con
fdence in the party which in 1896 pose'
as the @party Of God and morality" bu

oUInnLING POLITICIASs.

The republican leaders OF congress
and the president are not in accord on
the Meat inspection bill aud either con-
gress or the president must give way.
Speaker Cannon save he expects to see
safe and sane legislation" and this is
evidently his way OF taking a fall out OF
President Roosevelt. The letter OF the
president to Congressman Wordsworth,
chairman Of the committee Oh ngricul.
ture, vigorously criticises the substitute
proposed by the republican majority of
the committee and says, lit is very. very
bad DOUBTLESS it suits the packers"
Mr.. Wadsworth retorts, in a letter he
gives 70 the press, by saying to the pee
dent: You are wrong, very wrong in
your estimate OF the committees bill"
and declares: Every member OF the
committee Is absolutely rs honest and
sincere as yourself in his DEERE to
secure the passage OF a rigid inspection
bill. They know the meaning Of the
English language" The president in
his letter TO Wadsworth said: There is
no provision for ma'ting the plants
accessible ut all no Ir5 to he inspectors,
but Congressman Wadsworth p'ints out
III his letter to the president Tint lie ia
-wrong, very wrong" for thRt ia amply
provided for in the house committee

since backed DOWN and admits the
provision is included, but says Senator
Beveridge hal misled him, Consider
ing that no must have read the houS sc

each one inserts q proviso. If the bout

block which confronts all who arrive
at their decisions by studying form

been further accentuated by the condi-
tlons of the match. Billy Nolan, who
is n shrewd manager. has made the
mistake OF his career by taking ad-
vantage of Cans penniless condition
