| WITH THE FRENCH LICK BELSHAEZAR.
Chairman TON" Taggart's conference at
French Lick Springs has done exceIlently we'll.
As result of it the Democratic party is, for
this stage of the campaign in a state Of unusual
preparedness Like the wise virgins in the par
| able its lamps are lit, or Major Menzies
said:
We seem to have everything arranged. We
have the candidate arranged for; we have the
platform built; in fact, there does not seem to
be anything left for us TO do or for the tutu1G
convention to do. The man we have selected as
our candidate 1 believe gentlemen. fits present
conditions. but if the conditions change 1 be-
lieVe the Democratic party is big enough and
strong enough TO change with them.
How strikingly that contrasts with the unpre-
paredneSS of 1896, when an unknown man
achieved the nomination at the price of start
ling metaphor or Of 1905. when the platform Of
the party had 10 be discredited by the cand-
date after he had read what the New York
morning newspapers said about it. This time
there will he no such slips. for Il "cross of gold"
speech by boy orator would not be grasped
at straw to rescue the party from it's
slough of despond aud the platform, if plans
go not astray. will bc in perfect harmony with
the candidate.
OF course ther2. is one possible contingency
at which Mr.. Menzies hints and 10 which. if it
arises. he feels sure the Democracy will prove
adequate Conditions nov. he thinks. fit the
Nebraska man. but if they change the Demo
cratic party will change with them Mr. Bryan,
from being a foul weather candidate in 1896,
has become fair weather candidate in 1905.
If it becomes squally between now and next
July and the winds kick up some nasty seas
the resourceful Democracy will be equal to the
emergency and Will put up the right kind of
10 suit such a tempestuous occasion. Every
body who has followed with attention the course
of the Democracy will agree with Major Men
zies that it is big enough and strong enough TO
change whichever way eXpediency dictates, even
though alternative programme was privately
agreed upon among the influential who
thrust their feet under Chairman Taggart's
board From Parker to Bryan and back is only
short step for party too big to be tied to a
single manor. for that matter. to a single
policy.
1t pains us considerably to learn that Chair
man Taggart is not likely to be the national en-
tertaner in the next campaign. We have al
ways felt that, taking it all in all, he was just
the man for the place. Presiding at the French
Lick feast which, while deciding on so elaborate
a programme, placed him in so minor role he
must have felt not little like that ancient
host BelshaZZar.

were based on economic conditions fostered by
slavery The South held them long before the
war and would not yield them after the war
without struggle When the Democratic
party revived in the 70s it was prompted
by the South TO declare war on protection,
and in the anti-tariff crusade which lasted
from 1876 to 1894 the South furnished the
real zeal and real leadership. President Cleve-
land only yielded to the counsel of men Ike
Carlisle. Vest Mills, WattersOn, Beck and
Breckenridge. who had talked and thought free
trade since their boyhood. The free silver
coinage issue was also pushed to the front by
the Southern leaders, who used the hitherto
Republican Far West to drive the reluctant
Eastern and Middle Western Democracy into
line. But for the alliance between Southern
Senator and Representatives and the Silver
Republicans to defeat the repeal of the purchas-
ing clauses of the Sherman act of 1890 there
could have been no Bryan campaign in 1886.
The South stood by Bryan i'll 1896 and 1900. and
is returning to him. Without the acquiescence
of the South his leadership could not have
been established in the past and could not now be
maintained six months. The South is support

particular faith in him because it hesitateS
to admit its political responsibility and to face
the consequences of such an admission.

JAPANESE EMIGRATION,

The announcement that there has been no
further official action with regard to the emigra-
ton of japanese to Canada and the United
States may perhaps fittingly be regarded as an
utterance of supererogation. The fact seems to
be that no further action has been, is or prob
ably will be necessary. The Japanese govern
ment some weeks ago adopted measures deal
ing with the matter which for stringency have
probably not been equalled in any other consti-
tutional country and which certainly should
prove quite effective. Their strict execution
may and indeed does cause much murmuring
and even resentment ar home, though all that
may soon subside under the influence of reyerent
loyalty TO the Emperor, but it must surely give
full satisfaction in the other countries con-
cerned.
Hitherto emigration from Japan has, as in
several European countries, been incited and
promoted by various speculative companies for
their own profit. japanese have often been
induced TO migrate 10 America or Canada bv
promises and representations which failed Of
fultlment. Thousands were thus shipped
abroad. 20 their own discomfort and loss. but

MONEY AND BUSINESS.

A dull market for securities is the logical re-
suit of financial events during the last month,
and entire lack Of support produces lower prices
each week as liquidation is forced by the ma
turity of time loans. There is much difference
of opinion as to the duration of this movement,
but it is undeniable that the fundamental posi-
tion is steadily improving by the transfer of
rnargined holdings TO the strong boxes of in
vestors Last weeks decline in average of the
sixty most active railway shares to new low
record for the last seven years was facilitated
by some speculative activity by the short
count. Not content with the support that such
operators received from the first decline in
railway earnings for the last three years, it was
considered good business to circulate rumors of
impending railway receiverships. In a time of
oversensitive nerves 1t is not difficult to increase
the uneasiness, and declines sharp in the
properties attacked. although the reports
promptly denied by those high in authority. A
better feeling developed on Saturday and many
stocks closed at the best prices of the week.
Further reductions in branch offices and run
ming expenses of brokerage houses are reported,
and the last sale of a Stock Exchange member
ship marked another low record for recent years
at SOL, 800.
Engagements of gold abroad on this move
ment have now risen above $4,000 OOO and the
stringency Is gradually giving way before the
food of yellow metal. One of the best signs of
the last week was the announcement OF a prom
inent firm that it would discontinue dealing in
currency. The premium for ready cash for pay
rolls was an unavoidable consequence of the
banks endeavors to strengthen their position
but the business attracted SPECTATORS and ag-
gravated the situation materially With the
passing of this undesirable feature the mone-
tary outlook should become much brighter al
though rates for call loans are still far above
normal and few transactions are recorded in
either time money or commercial paper. Largely
because of incomplete information, the announce
ment of government aid early last week was not
well received. Among other things the circular
implied that the Treasury certificates would be
in denominations of $50 only. whereas it subse-
ouently developed that Hdltinles of that sum

The Richmond News-Ieader' in comment

even to the point of furnishing a Democratic
Presidential candidate deprecates any undue
effort toward that end on the ground that it
would place the South in a false light p0liti-
calIy- Our Richmond contemporary thinks that
demand the Souths part for the Presi-
dental nomination would force the South Into
'the attitude of placing section before meas

If the Presidency is to fall to a SOutherner 1t
should fall as a voluntary tribute TO recognized
and Indispensable worth. as an invitation TO

such service.
As piece of sef-abnegation this proud re-
fusal TO compete for the greatest prize in poll
tics is refreshing and perhaps credtable. But
we are disposed 10 think that the effacement
insisted on is due less to overmodesty than to
an indisposition on the Souths part to accept
full responsibility for the conduct Of a party
which IT plainly dominates. "The News
Leader" is not inclined TO admit that the South
has controlled does control Democratic poll

lead of the North and the West, and in many

fers Of doctrine. But we cannot discover when
or where the Southern element was ever over
ridden by the Northern the Western Democ-
racy, or see bow The South can thus repudiate
responsibility for vital Democratic declarations

IL is clear that tie South forced the two
erest party issues of recent years the Democ
raey. Tariff reduction and ultimate free trade
were essentially Southern conceptions, for tley
