We have nothing to cay

those who have been mention

acceptable Senators if placed
in Office for a long term of
years, but we deny that among
them is another man who can

exists, and accomplish for the
party anything in comparison
with what can be accomplish

THE GOVERNORS DUTY

ia an unexpected element. The
plans of Republicans have been
disorganized, and there has
been placed at the disposal of
the Democrats a force that

charges that duty.
The matter must be consid-
cred from Democratic stand
point only-it must be looked
at only through party eyes.
There has been talk of some
Republican being rendered the
appointment. We dismiss the
thought with our refusal to be-
lieve that the Governor will
do any such thing Such course
would earn for him only the
contempt of Republicans, and
would sink him forever in
Democratic oblivion.
The appointee must be- will
be-a Democrat, and upon the
character of Democrat selected
depends whether disorganized
Republican plans shall be al
lowed to calmy re-adjust them
selves, or be further unsettled
for the good of Democracy.
How can Democracy be made
stronger? What kind of man
will best hold together what it
has, and bring new recruits to
it's ranks? These are the con-
trolling questions.
There are many Republicans,
and few Democl ats: The Re-
publicans are strong, and the
Democrats weak. There is no
middle ground-no third party
from which to recruit. Demo
cracy can therefore grow
stronger only as Republican,
ism becomes weaker. snd Re-
publicanism can only be weak

ing. =
The time is particularly aus
picious for an intelligent effort
in that direction. There is
great dissatisfaction in the Re-
publican ranks-almost two
organizations-and from that
dissatisfaction we have reaped
many benefits. By reason of
it we obtained the votes that
now make possible the exer-
else of a power not intended to
be granted-the power to ap.
point a United States Senator.

Burke understand and expect

tend but one short session of
Congress, before the most
active campaign the state has
ever known will be on in all
it's earnestness. Therefor this
Senator must be a mau who in
these few months can grasp
the most possible of the situa-
tion-learn the most possible
of conditions existing at the
NATIONAL Capital. against which
we complain, aud then he must
be able to 60 before the PEG.
pie of the State and preach the
gospel of reform, through De-
mocratic success, to waivering
Republicans; to lay it before
them in the light of calm rea-
son, without offense.
The man who goes, even
though he may delve to the
bottom, and lay away in his
mind every fact, will be
useless to Democracy in this
crisis, unless he possesses the
ability to disseminate in force
full manner to the people of
every county in the state the
knowledge he has acquired.

fuse to recognize that in the
whole state is there an other
man occupying a position of
comparison in the ability to ad-
vance the parties cause under
the circumstances now exist
ing. He possesses in marked
degree every essential qualifi-
cation. He is eminently a
broad gagged man. Recogniz.
ed 40 unyieidingly Democratic,
he yet possesses the confidence
and respect of Republicans
throughout the state to a de-
gree most remarkable. He is
eminently a man of the people,
readily acquiring and retain
ing their good will. His life
work has fitted him to quickly

that he will exercise the ap-
pointive power, and select a
Democrat, but it must be ex-
pected that they will look with
critical eye upon the appointee,
and that they will only approve
if the power of appointment is
wisely exercised.
Let US not make the mistake
of believing that the Republi.
cans who voted for John Burke

misrepresentation or deceit.
and last, but not least, they are
from training and as a result
of years of opposition, distrust-
full of the party against which
they have been arrayed, and
suspicious of her leaders and

With this situation confront
ing us we ask again what kind

the Governor to appoint
He must be first a broad
man, firm in his own belief,
but tolerant of the ideas of
others. He must while recog-
uized as uncompromisingly
Democratic, be to the highest
possible degree unoffensive to
the Republican masses, and
possessed of their respect. He
must be a man among men,
familiar with public life, and
fitted to mix on short acquain-
lance with public men. He
must be above all things q
diplomatic man, a pacifier, an
inspirer of confidence, and not
an antagonizer.
Let US not forget that, who.
ever he is, he will have less
