DEMOCRACY'S FAILURE

Washington, June 2--(Special Cor
respondence)-Although the people of
the United States, regardless of po-
litical affiliations, manifest a willing
ness to stand by the President in
any aggressive action for protection
of American interests and for main
tenance of National honor in foreign
affairs, there is everywhere evident a
determination not to let matters of
this kind cloud or permanently dis
place the discussion of economic prob
lens.
Democratic leaders realize that the
people will not abandon domestic is
ues because of temporary foreign
problems. Secretary of Commerce
Redfeld recognized this when he de-
clared at Indianapolis that the Demo-
cratic party had drought the coun-
try through the most terrible COM
mercial shock in it's history and land
ed her safe and strong upon the peace
full shores of prosperity and influence"
His declaration is taken as a throw
ing down of the gauntlet to the Re-
publican party and a challenge upon
that issue. His remark necessarily
directs attention to the great CONNER
cial shock which this country suffer
ed Immediately after the election of
Grover Cleveland in 1892. He prac-
tically declared that the commercial
shock which this country suffered i'm
mediately after the election Of Wood.
row Wilson is a more terrible shock
than that which was suffered after
the election of Grover Cleveland. While
this comparison is one which it is
needless to discuss so far as the in.
tensity of the shock is concerned, most
business men realize that there is
such close similarity that even g
Democrat could not avoid discussing
the two catastrophes in connection
with each other.
But issue will be taken with Sec
rotary Redfeld's assumption that the
Democratic party "has landed the
country safe and stro =. upon hte
! peaceful shores of prosperity" Rusi
, ness men know that whatever degret
of prosperity has been regained sub
sequent to the "terrible commercial
shock" to which Mr.. Re'ltield refers
has been due to the normous demand:

"Oh. can scrape up some sand with

So he let Jackie and Billie warm
themselves at the bonfire, and when
the two little animal boys had hurried
on to school. Mr.. Longears tried to
scrape up some sand to put out the
fire
But Jack Frost had frozen the
ground so hard in the night that Uncle
