from a sort Of Mad Mullah Of the pralrles mo
y very conventional Democratic candidate. But
that does not make him any more formidable
roIi+icaIly for his party under his leadership
has lost hubble confidence and public respecI 10
s17cb an extraordinary degree tnat his only
rev-snaper supporter in this city IS asking
"ShaU the Democratic party die? Like us
leader it stands for nothing in particular, exists
for the fUrtherance Of no definite theory OF gov

-I+b Mr. Rrvau since 1896. Then he was ct least
taken for a sincere but misguided enthusiast ana
as such he attracted a passionate and earnest
following. To-day he has no better reputation
for sincerity than for practical capacity. THOSE
who accepted him as a prophet when he hrst
sppegred are now turned most bitterly against
him while many Of those who at first reVoired
from him are now taking him as g party man
with Indifference. His name is now identified
with no cause There is nothing which by gen

election No convictions can be positively asso-

chameleon to catch votes. He says he has
become respectable" in the last few years. Per

that he has done so at the COST Of being less
respected.
For Mr.. Bryan has deliberately pitched his
radlcalism so as not to offend. Wherever he
has found it offensive he has hurredly with
drawn It, as in his advocacy and abandonment
of the government ownership Of railroads. His
constant aim is 10 drive away as few voters from
the Democratic party as possible. He proved
at first that so many Democrats could be alien
ated by one extreme course as to make success
impossible. Then Judge Parker proved that the
other extreme course alenated as many more
Now IN his turn, III. Bryan is aiming at judi
cious medium. and he will probably show that
party with small slice eff each end is no
stronger than one with a big slice off one end or
the other. The old reproach attaches TO his
party: First II IS radical, then conservative
and now betwixt and between.
M Bryan has not much to offer Of posi-
tive and definite character. except a trust de-
struction plan which is not in harmony with
the spirit Of the times and g bank guarantee
plan which would make banking paradise for
financial adventures; but New York cannot
fail TO be interested IN him, for It may be his
farewell appearance, and, as The World" sug-
gests 1t may even b the farewell appearance
Of his party.

RnNNrNG ON RECORDS.

Mr. ChanIer at Utica complained that Gov
ernor Hughes thought himself the only man en-
titled to run on his record this year, and then
demanded, 'How about Me?"
We are inclined TO think that he was mis-
taken Neither Governor Hughes nor any one
else, so far as we know, denies TO Mr.. Chanler
or any other candidate the right TO run on bis
record. But is a whirling weathervane par
ticularly good thing to run on or even to stand
on?
On what particular phase Of his micro-kaleido-
scopic record does Mr.. Chanler desire to run
On his almost ELUSIVE praise Of Governor
Hughes, against whom he Is now running or
on his almost servile adulation of MIR. Hearst
who Is now daily lambasting himf
We repeat that he was mistaken in what ne
said at Utica. It is not that Governor Hughes
objects to his running on his record, but that
the people of this state object to his being
elected on his record

Our able neighbor 1.-The New York World
asks why any independent Democrat should
vote for Mr.. Chanler. 1t points out that ne Is
not advocating Democracy, or making an APP
neal to Democrats, or basing whatever erltl-
cfsns Of Governor Hughes he has to make upon
Democratic principles
Indeed he is not. He has heard SO mucn
of the Opposition 10 Hughes that he has al
most forgotten that there is Democratic
PARTY. He is counting that opposition all le

makes Of himself, and to add to them the votes
of every selfish interest which hates Hughes
for doing his duty to the people and to which
he is suggesting-and what the state ID grad
usIlv coming 10 know Of his character during
this campaign bears out the suggestion-that ne
will not do his duty to the same degree TO
everybody who growis snd grumbles because
the states interest has been preferred to his
own Mr. Chanler intimates that such private
interests would receive different consideration
Of his hands That is the meaning of the at
tacks upon the public service laws, the IN

fines of the people" the hints about "Oliver

Hughes's righteous veCoes. The substance OF
his speeches is q constant covert appeal TO lrrl-
tated victims of the abolition of government
by pull He does not dare come out boldly ana
say that he would restore the days OF speclai
fayors at Albany, but that is what his speeches
mem. and the sole aim of his candidacy Is to
win those who want them restored.

Every enemy the Governor has necessarily
made In the impartial performance of his duty
is invited TO read between the lines or MI
Chambers speeches and find IN them promise
Of different trea tment under him. He is run

appeals to all those who have found back

AMENDS.

Colonel Henry Watterson has msde amends
TO the Hon "Fingey" Corners and the other
statesmen with whom he has been associated
for some months past IN the task OF organizing
yictory~for the Democratic national ticket MT.
Corners was deeply chagrlned last week De-
cause Colonel Wattersons newspaper, "Ihe
Louisville Courfer-JournaI" circulated the story
that the gambling and saloon interests IN THIS
state had contributed $4,000 to defeat Hughes
and elect Chanler. Tho chairman Of the Demo
cratic State Committee announced that MT
Watterson had fallen victim to overcredul1ty
and added: at amt the first time the Colonel
has been gold-bricked."
The improperly of the publication from the
point of view of managerial comfy is now
freely acknowledged by the Kentucky editor.
He SAYS that the story appeared in the sport
ing columns and was unauthorized by any
zone having knowledge or authority lt just
crept In without warrant or intent; for no re-
sponsible editor or sub-editor familiar with the
heroic purpose Of Mr.. Corners, Mr.. Murphy and
Mr. Chanler to crush racetrack gambling In
this state and keep 1t crushed would nave
dreamed that those guardians Of Democratic
morals would have consented to touch S0OOVO
contribution Of tainted racetrack money
Says Colonel WattersOn concerning the mis-
hap in THE CourierJournaIs" Office: whether
ct was put-up job is being made the subject
| "of investigation" Clearly the case Is one IN
which the services of the District Attorney OF
Jefferson County, KY, are badly needed.

NEEDS OF NEW YORK HARBOR

The information supplied by The Tribune yes
terday concerning the progress being made IN
deepening the entrance to New York Harbor
should be welcome to the owners Of the largest
steamships coming TO this port. For one-half
of its width the Ambrose Channel now has
from thirty-seyen to thirty nine feet OF water
and the proposed depth Of forty feet is prom
ised in the near future.
That is not too much. While IN motion yes
sells stern sinks lower than when she is at
her pier. For this reason clearance Of from
one to three feet is required TO keep her off
the bottom. Allowance should also be made
for the tossing and subsistence Of waves. The
Mauretania and the Lusitsnia were designed to
draw thirty-seven and ebslf fest when fully
loaded Their ability TO get in and out OF the
harbor this year indicates that they did not
carry full cargoes The same ts proes bly, true
of several other vessels now coming to New
York.
In the last ten years there has been a notable
increase In the size of transatlantic liners. In
1893 the largest OF them was the Kaiser VIII
helm der Crosse, which was about six hundred
and fifty feet long and drew twenty eight feet
The new ships Of the Cunard company are
nearly one hundred and forty feet longer, and
have draft nine and one-half feet greater,
and 1t is safe to say that progress has not
ceased. The decision of Liverpool to provide
new docks, ranging In length from 1,235 TO
,4So feet, may DO without special significance,
