preparations mnde by the legisla-

teresting commentary on the in
stability and incertitude of party
mind that in numerous instances
the leaders of either side have,
for reasons of political exigency
or because of a natural social and
economic development, appropri-
ated as their own policies which
have seemed to be the peculiar
property of the other. Never
theless, throughout our political
history, the line of demarcation
between the ideas of Hamilton
and the policies of jefferson can
be very distinctly followed from
1889 to the present.
Again a careful studying of
American political history clearly
discloses the fact that third par
ties are not and cannot in the
very nature of things be a perm
anent political condition. Yet it
must also be conceded that there
has been almost from the begin
ming of the Republic a third par
ty which has existed without
name and without permanent
place upon the ballot, namely,
the independent voter, that
mighty influence of correction
and punishment which has dealt
summarily with either party
when the party in opposition has
been impotent to compel reform.
That this third party exists today
as proof of the ability of the
American people, even under
laws and methods of party man
which are a crying dis
grace, temporarily at least, to
chastise insolent partisan guilt,
is clearly demonstrated in the
present condition of the Republi-
can party.
This unorganized party ogan-
ization called public opinion, the
American moral sense, or what
ever you will, by refusing to vote,
elected Grover Cleveland Gov
ernor of New York, buried David
B. Hill under an avalanche of
popular disapproval, and aided in
nominating Theodore Roosevelt
president of the United States in
the face of an adacious politico-
financial combination. At the
last election. by refusal to vote
it overwhelmed the Republican
party and served warning upon
the Democratic opposition by a
minority vote that it was put into
power not because of any inner
ent virtue in Charles F. Murphy
and Tammany Hall, but because
of the outrageous failure Of Re-
publican managers to meet in
sistent demand for a populariz-
ing of popular government and
methods of nomination and cleo
ton. And this same power,
without organization or machin-
and needing and wanting neither
will overwhelm the Republican
party in 1912 unless even yWhere
party managers heed this de-
mand for drastic, thorough reor-
ganization. Even so there can
be no hope for success of any
movement that would disorgan-
ize and disrupt the Republican
party, and build upon its ruins a
third organization under new
title which should finally absorb
it.
1t is, of course, pure specula-
ton to attempt to state what

THE REPUBLICAN VIEW
POINT
BY JOHN A. STEWART

BY JOHN A. STEWART
president of the Republican
League of Clubs.
No conclusion can be drawn
from facts relating to the pres
ent political situation upon which
can be predicated belief that
either third party is about to
be organized or is necessary.
Parties are born in response to
great moral exigencies, not
"made to order" The degree
of their permancy as affirmative
influences for progress depends
upon their ability to meet con-
structively those great moral is
sues which assume form and sub
stance with each recurring gen
Grafton. There must, broadly
speaking, be excepted from such
Characterization one class OF
party organizations, of which the
Democrttic party has been for
years and is yet the most con-
spicuous example afforded dur
ing practically our entire polltl-
cal history. The present Demo-
cratic party developed almost
Immediately, in it's minority, in
to a party of negation, obstruc-
ton, and, under the tutelage OF
Burr and Clinton, of machine
ism.
Three times in its history it
has been conspicuously only a
party of corruption. 1t has con-
tinued from Jefferson's time to
to the day of Bryan and Har-
mon as the party that opposes,
save during periods when, owing
to peculiar exigencies, it has been
obliged to offer and to attempt to
carry out constructive policy
at times Numerically opposed to
it's reputed principles. In the
meeting of such needs it has
more than once had to go for en-
lightenment to that progressive
sentiment which, organizing un-
der Washington and Hamilton,
has had the genius and intelll-
gence successfully to meet when
in control of the government ev-
ery great, vital, national issue.
Under a form of government
such as ours, the people with
reference to any particular ques-
ton of more than local import,
divide naturally into two groups,
and as naturally these two groups
may be classified as the construc-
tive, affirmative group, and the
negative, " the sEOpposition"
group, or as six months ago, the
Outs" Since the foundation of
the Republic, the line of demarca-
ton in partianship has disclosed
two greet sentimental move
ments, the exemplars and ex-
ponents of one being George
Washington, Alexander Hamilton
and John Marshall, and of the
other, Thomas Jefferson, James

mediately have followed, O
there would have been a schisn
within the party which would
have led to a third ticket in 1912
and consequently the election oil
a Democratic president.
There is nothing in the situation
to-day that should lead Republi-
cans like myself, who have al
ways advocated the belief that
the party and not the organiza-
ton should give direction to
party activities, to fear that any
third movement at this juncture
is even possible, or that. if re-
forms within the organization be
carried out, the Republican tick
ct will not be elected in 1912.
With all due respect to the gen.
tleman mentioned by Mr.. Edg-
erton as the possible opponents
of the third party idea, they
would not, l believe, if they
were ultimately to attempt to or
ganize such a party, meet a re-
Spouse that would make such a
movement anything more than a
defeat of Republican ticket.
Colonel Roosevelt and other
progressive leaders still remain
within the party fold, and, SO
far as the public knows to the
contrary, they are still opponents
of the idea that reform should be
carried on within the ranks. The
Republican party is still, and
will continue to be, despite a
fatuous, even stupid policy of
party management, an efficient
fundamentally for national we'll
being.
For, after all, parties are not
built as one would build house,
but created and held together
and perpetuated by sentiment
and common interest. With each
recurring generation new issues
arise which are but differing
phases of long unsettled ques-
tons. Always, for time, after
the joining and disposition of
every great moral issue organic

ity of discipline. continues pot
ent. But in the after period,
while parties are in waiting, as
now, for great problems to as
sumo such concrete form as will
bring their meaning home to
every citizen, and stir men to
partisan activity, parties become
broken up into groups, each
group dominated by individual
or coterie of individuals. Boss
ism in it's grossest fern is the
natural concomitant, and in the
face of that peculiar and

throes of such a condition. One
trouble with us as party men has
been that we have regarded the

a fixed condition. On the con-
trary. the term is only a senti-
mental designation applied to
conditions which change with
each generation. There is GER

In stating this nothing new is
suggested, but is it given here as
the viewpoint of what should be
the ground plan of any progress
sive party, and while agreeing
with the principle stated by Mr..
Edgerton that the progressives
should drive the bosses out OF
politics." it is submitted that
hey should drive the people in

If the Democratic party is
strong enough to prevail In this
struggle over those who are in
terested in it for personal pur-
poses, then it can properly be
the progressive and dominant
party.
