Washington, April 1S.-Ncw York
as democratic state has always
been curious and ineNplicqble With
In the memory OF man no democrat
has been elected president OF the
United States who had back Of him
the vote Of the Ncw York delegation
to the convention i'm which be- was
nominated. Cleveland was nominated
three times and elected twice with
New York democrats opposing him.
except boz the one convention when
hc was nominated and beaten. The
trouble with the Sew York democrats
is that they do not give any fair
hearing to the real democratic work
ors. II there is anything more uu-
democratic than Ncw York state
convention, it would bee necessary to
80 clear TO Russia to find IT, The
spokesman OF the convention talk
most beautifully about giving to the
delegation the opportunity when the
national convention meets To study
the best candidates and to select the
one who might be nominated with
the best prospects of success. But
what this all means is that Conuors
of Buffalo and Murphy Of New York
do not want the people to instruct,
but want to do all the instructing
themselves. And this Is the situation
In New York today
when a club calling itself the Ma
tional Democratic club of New York
invites the man who more than any
one else representats national demo
cracy to attend banquet without
asking him to make a speech. some
idea is given Of what the undemo-
cratic democracy OF New York
means. When this same club passes
the word to every speaker that he
must not mention the name OF vii.
liam Jennings Bryan we get an idea
of What New York democracy stands
| for--or rather what that club stands
for. When we find Mr.. "Fingy" Con
ners making it apparent that he as
chairman OF the New York state
committee and apparently the ruler
of the ruler of the state convention
will not permit the name of Bryan
to be mentioned in that convention
we learn first what the present New
York democracy means aud se2on,
what the name of Bryan means.
What extraordinary spell could tn,
name of William J. Bryan work upol
the National Democratic Club, o
upon the New York state conyen
ton that the men wdo controlled
both dared not ALLOW it to be ut
tered?

The Election and the Senate

Thirty-one United States senators
will go QUE of office on March 3,
1903, unless reelected. The legisla-
lures which will either re-elect or
set them aside will be chosen dur
ing the coming presidential campaign.
If it should happen, as many people
believe, that the democrats might
sweep the country, these are the
states in which democratic senators
might be chosen and the republi-
can incumbents set aside;
Iowa, Washington. Connecticut, Ohio,
North Dakota Idaho, Illinois South
Dakota, Kansas, California, New York
and Uath
The situation in Ohio makes it
wholly probable that the state legls-
lature can be carried and that a
democratic senator will be elected
there. This, too, is the case in Con-
necticut, in South Dakota and in
Kansas. I he way in which the New
York legislatutiye districts have
been planned makes it quite possi-
ble for the democratic party to carry
the state by nifty thousand plurality
and yet lose the state legislature.
But as the useless senile and cor.
rupt Plat reaches the end of his
| term at the time of this election. il
would seem that the opportunity for
the democratic party to elect a sen,
ator there would be the most prom
Using i'm its history.

THE REAL "sALANcE OF TRADE.
philadelphia Press.)

So here are three items-tourists
emigrants and dividends-which in
year 1907 will take away from Amer
ica's great purse about $375.000.000 of
actual cash, which never figures In the
ordinary and socalled balance of
trade It is plain, therefore. that this
country must have an excess of ex-
ports over imports OF about 100000
900 annually In order to come out
square at the end OF the year.
Fortunately our farms and planta-
tions and our mills and our mines and
our trades people are able to sell the
rest OF the world products worth half
q billion more than the 90.000,000 OF
people here are obliged to buy abroad.
This leaves a comfortable margin of
about 100000. 900 In on. favor. which
constitutes the real trade balance.
