about appealing to popular sentimen,
on the two issues ready made to their
hands, the iniquitous tariff rates and
revolutionary Federalism, that con-
summate politician who dictates Repub-
lican policies is watching from hour to
hour the growth of antagonism to the
prevailing system of protection, ready
so soon as the hour is ripe to raise the
cry of tariff reform and thus claim for
his party the credit of abolishing the
evil it originated and has so long foster
ed. When will our self-constituted
leadership quit fooling about fads and
fancies and realize that in courageous
avowal of the well-settled PRINCIPLES
and policies of Democracy lies the only
hope of success for the Democratic
party? And when will the voters of the
party cease to follow after every Jack
o. Lantern displayed for their beguile-
ment by charlatans and demagogues?
Is the donkey that can only BRAY and
kick to be forever the appropriate en-
blem of an organization which possess
ses within itself all the elements of sue
cess and only lacks a true rallying
point?'
The donkey brayed very loud about
ubiquitous tariff rates" in 1892. and
with its siren notes won the people to
the support of Democratic tariff reform.
They soon found out that they had been
almost kicked to death by the long ear
ed animal while under the spell of its
charming voice. Then, when the animal
in 1900 brayed it's sweetest about re
evolutionary Federalism calling it I'm
perialism, the people turned away in
disgust and kept out of reach of the
heels Of the braying, kicking jackass.
Our Richi..~nd and Norfolk contempo-
raries have supplied very appropriate
emblems for the escutcheon of the
Democracy. When that conference of
Southern Democrats is held at Rich

Compulsory Registration Of Accidents

where such accidents are less frequent

DERELECT AND DONKEY.

The leading Democratic papers in
Virginia are saying some strange things
about their party, and are making con-
fessions which prove the utter unfit
ness of the National Democracy to
manage the affairs of this great Ma
ton. In recent editorial published in
the Richmond Times-Dispatch, in which
that paper was urging that the South
ern Democracy be placed in charge of
the party, the following appeared:
The hope of Democracy is in the
South. The fate of the Democratic
party is in the hands of Southern Dem
ocrats- If they had deserted it in the
past it would have persisted. If they
should desert it now, it would perish,
and there is reason to believe that if
they do not soon take hold of it and re-
organize and revitalize it, it will perish
IN spite of all future efforts to save it.
What shall we do, then? Shall we
suffer the party to drift along without
chart or compass until it is wrecked in
strange waters? Or shall the true pi-
lots OF the South come boldly forward,
take possession, reclaim and declare the
chart and steer the good ship safely
into port?
1T is homely figure, but it is ap-
propriate and forceful, for the Demo
cratic party is very like a ship which
has lost herself at sea, without chart,
without compass and with no sure hand
to guide
This Is significant and pathetic wall
coming from the most influential Dem
ocratic paper in Virginia. 1t is a plain
admission that the so-called Democratic
party is what the Times-D Dispatch has
heretofore termed it, "a .disorganized
mass of humanity" without any fixed
principles or safe leadership. 1t is a
homely figure, but veritable fact. that
the present-day Democracy is nothing
more than dangerous derelict on the
political sea- vast old hulk, without
chart or compass, in the possession of
political pirates, whose only aim is to
bring it into deadly collision with the
good Republican chip that is now sail
ing the ocean and bringing into our
ports, our homes, abundant cargoes of
peace. prosperity and happiness. In
other words, the Democracy is a party
of destruction and not of construction.
But still severer and more scathing
criticism of the modern Democracy ap-
peared in the columns of the Norfolk
Virginian-Pilot on the 10Th of Deem
Der. 1t is from the pen of that able
gentleman, Colonel VIM E. Cameron,
and he knows the weaknesses and I'M
worthiness of the Democratic party as
well as any man living. We quote the
editorial in full;
while the Democrats are hesitatlng

consistency

William Jennings Bryan is now an an
nounced candidate for the Presidential
nomination of his party, or rather par
ties, in 1908. The Norfolk Virginian-
Pilot expresses doubt as to the
good taste which Mr.. Bryan has
shown in thus so early announcing his
candidacy, but states that if he is NOM
mated the support of that paper will be
loyalty accorded him. So, our Norfolk
contemporary will follow the Jack O.
Lantern again, and take stock in the
braying, kicking donkey.

A little over year ago the Demo
Gratis pretended to be greatly alarmed
at a threatened deficit in the National
treasury. Now they are expressing
great apprehensions about the enor-
nous surplus that is accommodating in
the treasury. A year ago they claimed
that the Dingley law was so diminish
ing the revenue that large deficit was
certain to come in the near future. Now
they claim that the Republican tariff
brings in such enormous revenues that
the treasury will become congested with
an immense surplus. This is Democratic
consistency.

THEY GOT WARMED UP.
Showing the Effect Of Imagination on
the Human Mind.

Mark Twain is responsible for many
a practical joke, and he also is known
to hold decided views in regard to
mental suggestion. One of the latest
stories told OF him in the newspapers
of the day has direct bearing upon the
matter of relationship OF body and
mind.
Mr.. Clemens, in company with two
friends, went on hunting expedition,
and intending to remain for some
days in the woods, they carried with
them provisions and small, round,
sheet iron wood stove, for 1t was in
November, and the nights were chilly.
The first day Mark remained about
the camp, putting things in order,
while his two friends went in search
of game.
Toward evening, having put things

which he had brought along, and was
soon lost between the covers. 1t had
grown rather dark meanwhile, so he
lighted candle and placed 1t beside
him on the box. Suddenly he heard
sound as of some one coming
through the underbrush. This remind
ed him that he should have had fire
built in the little stove, because the
night was frosty, and his companions
would feel the need of a warm fire on
their arrival. Hastily grasping the
candle, he stood it on its end inside
the stove and closed the door, which
was fitted with small windows OF
mica.
Just then his two friends rushed in,
shiyering, and, remarking that 1t was
beastly cold, they each in turn held
their hands over the little stove, from
which the light as of brisk fire bright
ly streamed. How kind of Mark to
build a fire for us" said one.
We'll, he knew we would be cold"
said the second.
