LAODICE4A.

We have never been able to persuade
ourselves that the Democratic League
knows that its soul is its own. Every
one understands that the things which
are the matter with the Democratic
party in this state are completely en-
bodied in the persons of "Fingey' Con-
ners and Charlie Murphy. Does this
reorganizing committee approach the
problem presented by these two per-
sonalities with courage? Not with the
slightest. 1t spends its time assuring
Murphy and Corners that its intentions
for the bettermeIt of the Democracy
are entirely imperSonal 1t would not
harm Mr.. Murphy or Mr.. Conners for
tie world.
The same compromising spirit is evil
dent all through its report on primary
and election law legislation. 1t goes
DraVely as far as the machines of both
parties are ready 10 go. In respect to
that reform in general, it advocates
number Of things. most of which are
pretty certain TO be contained in the
bill which will be offered in opposition
To Governor Hughes this year. and pre-
pared as sop to the public sentiment
That is demanding reform. It is not a
wild guess TO say that the legislative
committee which has been investigating
primary laws. which is, moreover, com.
posed of open opponents of the Gov
ernor's propositions, will go at least
as far as the Democratic League goes
II its recommendations.
There is one exception to this state
ment: the league comes out uneuuiyo-
cally for a ballot without party
column. Even here the courage and
Independence shown are not so great
as they seem. 1t is understood that
Murphy blames the present ballot, with
It's party column and straight voting,
for the defeat of the Tammanv county
ticket. But for that. he feels. votes
would have gone to Hearst and the
Tamma1y candidates for minor offices.
It is said, therefore, that Murphy is
not aVerse TO a reformed ballot. The
unequivocal declaration of the Sara
toga league tends to confirm that re-
port.
