tariff plank demands immediate re-
vision of the present schedules to
the extent of opening mp the home
market to the foreign producer,
with its true meaning hidden un-
der the ostensible purpose of bust
ing the trusts. The platform
loudly declares for publicity in
the matter of campaign contribu-
tions, when the policy of the party
has always been to keep the sourc-
es of its campaign funds as dark
as possible. 1t asks for economy
in appropriations by Congress.
vet every Democratic member in
the last session of that body was
engaged in looting the national
treasury by getting contributions
for his pork. barrel in return for
his support of other appropriation
bills. The rest of the platform
contains little of material conse-

Clever Politics.

Republican managers keep their
minds on the game. They do not
allow themselves to become dis
tracted by c'smor and waves.
While the Democrats have been
worrying and quarreling over the
campaign funds publicity plank,
the Republicans allowed the mat
ter to go until the attention of .tbe
country got fixed on the subject.
Now, at the psy Geological moment,
they come forward with an an
nouncement that puts to rest any
doubt az to the party attitude.
This is what happened: Mr..
Bliss, long the national treasurer,
told the committee the other day
that he would 10 longer serve. He
recommended as his successor Mr..
George r. Sheldon of New York.
Mr.. Sheldon was at once elected to
the place, and at the same time the
committee gave out an official
statement explaining that Mr..
Sheldon, rs treasurer and resi-
dent of New ! York, with offices in
that state, will be compelled, un-
der the law Of the Commonwealth,
to make public accounting Of his
campaign expenses. The commit
tee went on record AS declaring
that the New York law will apply
to Mr.. Sheldon as national treas
urer.
Thus the Republicans have an-
ticipated the Democrats in declar-
ing for publicity in the matter Of
campaign contributions. They
have done it very emphatically and
very cIoyerly at exactly the right
moment. The subject has been
handled properly. 1t is detail
of campaign management that has
nothing in common with the great
issues that have reason for place
in national party platform.-St.
Louis Times.

Our Democratic friends are
raising their quadrennial hula
balIoo about carrying the country
for Bryan again. We had this
noise in 1896, when Bryan missed
carrying all of the country by a
considerable margin, and again in
in 1900. when he dropped still
larger part of the load in his ef'
fort. We have no reason now to
feel that our Democratic friends are
justified in their righteousness
over the peerless ones improved
carrying capacity. When election
time comes around it finds the
American people selecting their
officials with calm deliberation,
free from the evanescent enthusiasm
of political conventions. In the
time they have for thinking be
tween the conventions and the
election the voters by a large ma
iority get away from the party
that has little else than noise t.
offer them.
