THE DEMOCRATIC FAMILY
TROUBLE.

Compared with the contests among
the candidates and the people to make
n candidate in the Republican party.
the internal war that is being waged
in the Democratic party is like a cy-
clone. while the former resembles an
evening zephyr in June. The lie has
actually been passed to Governor
Wilson by Colonel Watterson. What
the reply of Wilson will be is not at
hand when this editorial is penned.
But behind the ordinations and
recriminations lies a great political
truth--if Watterson is not misrepre-
senting. Governor Wilson in his
mad scramble for an office has disre-
garded the ties Of friendship and
sought that which is %expedient. To
covet the presidency is laudable. But
to become a vacillatinE popularity
