Settling Democratic Differences.
The esteemed Philadelphia Record is
averse to legal proceedings as a medium
for the settlement of the mooted question
concerning the validity of the claims for
the chairmanship of the Democratic State
Central committee. “Instead of a law-
suit,” observes our Philadelphia con-
temporary, “the Democratic party of
Pennsylvania needs a peaceful and equit-
able settlement of petty differences re-
sponsible for its present condition so far
as its organization is concerned.” The
plain inference is that our Philadelphia
contemporary is quite as much at sea
now as it was after the Allentown con-
vention when it blunderingly precipitated
the condition that defeated WEBSTER
GriM for Governor and elected TENER.
The differences which divide the Demo-
crats of Pennsylvania at the present time
are not pefty. On the contrary they are
grave and fundamental. Those which
influenced nearly half the Democrats to
bolt the nominee of the Allentown con-
vention and diverted the support of
RupboLPH BLACKENBURG and tens of
thousands of other independent Republi-
cans from GRIM to BERRY at the No-
vember election in 1910, may have been
petty. But since that differences of the
greatest importance have developed and
they can’t be settled finally until they
are scitled right and the right settlement
must come through judicial proceedings.
This is as certain as that day follows
night. It is as sure as that wrong cannot
be right.
