An eastern democratic paper re- cently remarked that “an impartial sur- vey of the situation does not justify the democratic party’s hope that it will con- trol the next house of representatives.” The more sagacious party leaders do not expect it to. They realize that the party has no winning issue, while the lack of unity and harmony causes it to be distrusted quite as .much now as at any time during the last six years. The great majority of the intelligent and thoughtful voters in all relations—farm- ers, merchants, manufacturers, wage earners—are averse to jeopardizing the favorable conditions that exist by sup- porting a party split up as the demo- cracy s and which has no definite and settled conviction or po.lcy, unless it be to break down the policy of protection to our industries and labor. Republican confidence n carrying the next house of representatives is well founded, but it must not be allowed to Interfere with a vigorous prosecution of the congres- ™ - greeting. “Good morning!
