no HEAR HIMsELF talk.

The fact that criticism of the Republican admins
tration is practically limited among the Democrats to
a man of the caliber of Senator Pat Harrison of
Mississippi is proof of the dearth OF political material
with which the Democratic party is equipped. Were
there any substantial ground for complaint against
the party in power the conservative and able members
of the minority would not hesitate so to inform the
country. Their silence completely sets at naught the
irresponsible charges voiced by the radical Harrison.
