Washington, Oct. l">th, 1904. ltditor Pre**: | Unmistakable indications of Re publican success seem to have de prived tlia Democratic campaign of most of its energy. An effort is, of course, being made in some directions but from the first there has never been a disposition to pull together for the election of Parker and Davis and disintegration is now going on rapidly within the Democratic machine. Apparently ignoring the possibilities of the telegraph and the news facilities of the press, the Democratic mana gers have arranged to have Bryan wrestle with the voters of Indiana and ex-President Cleveland ad dress the conservative Demo crats of New York State. Hut the wiser ones appreciate that little is to be gained for Parker from this form of campaigning. Each day the newspapers print in New York statements made by Bryan which are obnoxious to the conservative Democrats, while Mr. Cleveland is almost certain to say some things in his speech for Parker that will antagonize the wild Democracy of Bryan. Vice-Presidential candidate H. G. Davis is traversing West Vir ginia making from seven to ten little rear platform talks a day but he wisely confines himself to local issues with the result that his opin ions make uninteresting reading outside of his own State. David B. Hill sponsor-in-chief to the presidential candidate of the Demo cracy, has undertaken to tell the West Virginians some peculiar things about the tariff, but it is unlikely that they will accept Mr. Hill's assertions, especially as they are so easily disproved. For in stance, Mr. Hill told an audience that a purely revenue tariff would prove ample to offset the difference between American and foreign wages. Hardly had he uttered the statement than the State De partment received a report from Consul General Evans at London, showing that, according to the British Board of Trade, British workmen had suffered a loss of wages during the first half of this year amounting to 5<;.'5,45<) a week and that, during the same period of last year, they had suffered a loss by reduction of wages, of 82,- ('>20,000, nearly $.">00,000 a month. With such official figures before them the American workmen are to shrewd to accept Mr. Hill's vis i ionary theories. The promises of economy made by both Parker and Davis excite only derision in those who have carefully analysed the Democratic platform. That platform pledges the party to the continuous im provement of the Mississippi River, worked out on a definite plan and continued until a permanent im provement is affected. Now this is a gigantic undertaking. A Commission was appointed by Con gress a few years ago to examine into the feasibility of such an im provement. General, Gillespie former Chief of Engineers, was its chairman and a very careful ex amination and survey was made. It was finally reported to Congress that the improvement would cost J about 81 ; ~>0,000,000 and would re quire 10 per cent of the initial cost for maintenance; more than the Panama canal, more than the cost of either the army or navy last year. I n fact, the scheme proved so expensive that Congress aban doned the idea. Advocacy of such tremendous expenditure sounds strange when it comes from a party whose principal claims are that they will give the country a cheap j administration. Can You Eat. T. 15.
