cummINs SEES MANY PARTIES.
Declares No Political Organization Will
Control Congress in Future,

washington, Jan. II. - Divergent
views as to the future OF different
political parties were expressed here
last night by Albert Cummins, of
Iowa, and Moses Clapp. Of Minnesota,
addressing the American Academy OF
Political and Social Science.
Senator Cummins. who led the dis
cussion. declared that there is no ques-
tion or series of questions on which the
people may be equally or nearly equal
ly divided and that the future will
bring into existence a great number of
parties divided on minor questions
none Of which will be the majority in
congress.
"The modern problems OF statecraft.
no matter what form they take" said
Senator Cummins. practically all re-
late to the distribution Of wealth and
to its immediate Incidents, the health.
happiness and general ell-being Of the
people,
He had formerly felt. he said. that
there would be a division Of the peo-
pie along the lines Of radical. liberal,
or progressive on one side. as opposed
to conservative, stand pat" or reac-
tionary on the other.
His opinion was changed, however,
because he felt that no great body of
the people are. or will be conservative
in the sense in which thar word must
be taken In order to be the basis OF
a political party and there will always
be widely divergent views ~ to the
time and manner in which various re-
forms are to be effected.
Senator Clapp. on the other hand.
declared that in his opinion there
would always be two great political
parties and that IN tho future: "One
party will be based on special privilege
and the other on tho general welfare"
He outlined the history OF monarchy
and oligarchy parties against demo-
cratic parties in this and other coun-
tries and stated that he believed the
struggle to limit the activity Of the
many, in favor Of special privileges for
the few will continue.
