Democracy and Populism

| Responses to Mr.. Hearst's OvertureS to
| the democracy are not as a rule favOra-
BILE. In some quarters they are declined
with thanks. In others they are rejected
| with spirit approaching scorn. In no
quarter, as the newspapers report public
sentiment, is any such feeling manifested
| as greeted Col Graves speech at the JEFF
ferson day dinner in this town a few
| weeks ago. On that occasion the propo-
sition for a fusion between the Hearst
ties and the democracy was hailed with
enthusiasm. The only reason why Col.
Graves did not receive the biblical well
come was because there was no veal
handy. The meats served were of a more
substantial and filling character
The Montgomery Advertiser, a repre-
sentative southern Journal, does not con-
tent itself with pronouncing against what
it calls the 'ta1nt Of Hearstism." 1t de-
scribes the sort Of man the democracy
must nominate for President, and the
sort Of platform upon which he should
stand The candidate must be without
guile and This political garments with
out smirch." The platform must show
neither 'populism." nor "other undemo-
cratic tsms"
OF course the candidate should be with
out guile in the bad sense OF that word.
But he ought to be a good politician. He
should know the wires. and how TO pull
them. The idea that a man familiar
with politics and who plays the game
with Skill is necessarily an unworthy man
is absurd. Mr.. Jefferson was q thorough
politician, and Mr.. Lincoln another. Ana
there is no challenge to the assertion
that MIR. R0QsaVplf Ia n MI af bo

be drawn without q trace OF populism?
The populists, by a maneuver directed
by W. c. Whitney from New York. helped
elect Mr.. Cleveland in 1892 and by 1895
were so strong they colored both the
nomination and the platform at Chicago
Mr.. Bailey that year thought Mr.. Bryan
more populist than democrat. and medi-
tated rejecting the ticket. Mr.. Hill OF
New York thought the populist cat had
eaten the democratic canary, and SO took
no part at all in the campaign. 1t might
be well to say that the democracy has
all the populism II needs in its business
and more than has been good for 1t in
times past. but populism is In its system
to stay. The most skillful OF surgeons
could not drain 1t out and leave the pa
tient alive.
The Advertiser does well to call for a
good nomination and a good platform,
but 1t should not be too exacting in this
day of mixed issues and chaotic condi-
tons. LAS good as you've got; I'm not
expecting the best" said the old man
from the country at the restaurant
counter in ordering cup OF coffee.

1t is certain that Mr.. Roosevelt will be
consulted and that his advice will have
great weight, but his own candidacy for
either office seems most unlikely. The
governorship would not again appeal to
him. and he would be a deplorable misfit
in the Senate. A nervous. quick-tempered
monologist would chafe under the re-
straints of debate in a chamber where
even the most voluble must at times
listen. But Mr.. Roosevelt a. adviser-in-
chief and party manager extraordinary
would be Of very great service. Will that
be his role?

A majority Of 100000 for the Re.
publican state ticket In Illinois was
the consensus of the predictions by
about hundred Republican workers
consisting of chairmen Of county and
congressional committees, members Of
state committees, offlceholders and
candidates from southern Illinois
who gathered in love feast at the
Planters Hotel, st. Louis, last Tues.
day.
Governor Deneen, who has for the
past three months been campaigning
Illinois for the Republican ticket was
the first to prophesy the 100000 Re-
publican majority. He also said he
believed the Republicans will not lose
one congressman at the coming elec.
tion, and anticipates gains in every
district.
Al the county chairmen subscribed
70 his statements. and brought favor.
able reports from their counties.

ton they united in the belief that the
day when such bipartisan agreements
could be reached has passed, in iii.
nois.
United States Marshal G. H. Hitch.
of Paris, Ill.,. chairman Of the ex.
ecutive copmittee Of the Illinois
state Republican committee, who
lives in Speaker Cannon's district.
said Speaker Cannon's majority at
this election would be as large, II not
larger than at the last.
A message from Mr.. Norton, pri.
vate secretary to President Taft.
stated that Illinois Is more thorough.
ly Republican and will give q larger
Republican majority than any state
In the Union, except Pennsylvania.
One condition which was seriously
discussed by the party workers pres.
ent Is that the southern Illinois dis.
tricts have all had large corn crops
and the election will come exactly at
husking time. Therefore. efforts will
be directed not SO much to converting
Democrats as to bringing out the Re-
publican voters, a. II 10 felt that this
