a robust child born of the Wing party
in 1854 1t was strong OF bone and
brain and sinew. 1t lived and -four
ished until IL became the pride and
glory of the nation. That was the
Republican party.
Such are the ways OF politics. The
Republican party, itself the creature
of an insurgent movement. is now
the victim OF the most serious de-
Election that any party has suffered.
Parallel Conditions.
II is Interesting to speculate on the
parallel conditions that confronted
the Republican party In 1896 and in
this year of grace 1912 1t will be
recalled that at the Republican con-
vention held in st. Louis in 1896 a
procession OF boilers marched out of
the convention hall. led by Senator
Teller, OF Colorado; Senator Frank ].
Cannon. of Utah: Senator Dubois, OF
Idaho, and Senator Pettigrew, OF
South aDkota. They out because the
convention would not put silver
plank in the platform, Cn that day
they made a brave showing, and the
entire country. practically, west OF
the Mississippi river. applauded. But
what became of them and the move
ment they started? Senator Teller
was fortunate enough to be con-
tinued in the ,s"nate as long as he
desired to re'aaln. Cannon and
Dubois took refuge N the Democratic
party. So did nettisrew. But the
silver issue died. their States en-
braced the Republican parry and the
boiting senators did not receive
comforting crum5 from their foster
parent
Likewise q condition confronted the
democratic party il 1895 that is
exactly parallel 70 that which The
H. publican party IS now facing. When
the Eastern ef-.ge4d wing of the
Democratic party expressed their pro-
test against the action Of the Chi
cago convention, which nominated
William J. Bryan. by calling another
convention and putting Generals Pal
uer ard Buckner in the field as
counter irritants. they only succeeded

This Division il Serious.
But the division in the Republican
party at the present time Is regard
ed by politicians as more serious than
the schlsms OF 1889 for the people
are not so amenable as they were to
the cry of party loyalty.
Also the fact must be taken into
considera ton. that the movement rep
resented by the forthcoming conven-
ton at Chicago. Is headed by for
rner president of the United States.
The first time former president has
ever identified himself with. any
