Worse Than u Seemed

For a while, we thought that the
Democratic press was merely angry
with Col Roosevelt for declining to
run for the glory of it. 1t had prayed
for another sure-thing election. Fail
ing to get it, it was sorely displeased,
a very natural and human way to feel.
But these cries of woe and desolation
and broken hopes spring from some
thing deeper than anger. The Demo
Gratis are hurt. They feel that they
have been betrayed. 1t would appear
that the Colonel's running in opposi-
tion to republican nominee had been
among the party's, secret calculations.
The thing had been reduced to blue
prints. Now the plans have had to DO
thrown away. The party engineers
have had to sit down and make all
their estimates anew. And that ia
tough work for the heated months.
Well, the Democratic press has our
sympathy. We always feel that way
when we see funeral in preparation.

Making Nominations.

There is no lack of fealty to the
principle of primary reform in the CON
fession that we rather admire, In some
respects. the Democratic method of
guiding state nominations In the di-
rection of strong, available men. Ac
cording to the Democratic system, the
primary is veto on the suggestions OF
the party's leaders. 1t would be dem.
agogy to say that parties do not re-
quire leaders. If there must be leaders,
in what particular can leadership more
essentially manifest itself than In seek
ing the best candidates for high offices
of great Importance After the lead
ers speak-after they indicate what
nominations are in their Judgment best
for the party and for the state-the
primary offers the rank and file fair.
square, untrammeled opportunity to
pass judgment on the leaders recon-
mendations. If the recommendations
are sound, they will be accepted and
endorsed. If they are unsound, they
will be over-thrown. The primary
principle is entirely conserved; and to
it is added the advisory benefits of party
counsel.
So we cannot seriously challenge the
Democratic State Central Committee
for taking in hand this week the task
of bringing out party candidates for
Governor, Lieutenant Governor and u.
s. Senator. The party rank and file
cheerfully permit the State Central
Committee to become responsible for
the hard campaign that is put up in
behalf of state ticket Why not equal
cheerfulness in listening to men in
whom 80 much confidence is placed,
before as well as after the primary
makes the nominations?
