Future of the Democracy.
ii & .
i ne Adviress lssuea oy the execu
tive Committee of the Democratic So
ciety of Pennsylvania is a timely and
sober document which ilescuvs ih,
earnest consideration of all who have
an interest in the success ol the party.
As the Democtatic Society is a volnn.
tary organization within the party, ac-
knowieuging no Doss working no m.v
chine, tn.ikimi no nominations f.ir of
fice and seeking no spoils its counsels
at, least nave tne merit ot entire disin
terestedness. In referring to the al
stcnlion of large masses of Democratic
voters fi'iun the polls in the recent
elections the addiess asks if there was
any just or reasonable cause for this
display of indifference which has given
so much encouragement to grasping
trusts and monopolies under the pro
tection of the Republican party. A
partial answer to the question follows
m the appeal for the creation of "a
fresh and harmonious Democratic or
ganization, not in aid of any man or
taction, but in loyal subordination to
constituted Democratic authority, in
defense of Democratic orim-inles an.l
in support of Democratic candidates."
The acknowledged want of such an
organization seems to explain in no
small degree the extreme apathy of
the Democratic masses of Pennsylva
nia at, the February election.
J There are, however, some other po
tential causes of the reaction against
the Democratic party at which it were
fd'c to blink. Tne industrial depres
ion resulting from a vicious financial
lolicy for which the Democratic Ad
ninistration had not the least respon
ability created a tempoiary alarm
mon$ the people and a disposition to
,etreat in a timid and timeserving
;Krtion of tiie majority in Congress,
fl'he causes of the panic were mo t
liligently misrepresented by all the
rgans and orators of spoliation, and
. lultitudes who had enthusiastically
oted for Tariff Reform began to
oubt the widom of the measure,
r.d this apprehension was not long in
etiaying itself among the Democrats
t Congress.
; The House, it is hue, made no un-
ecessary uelay in passing the W ilson
i.l, but coupled with it an exlraordi
nry and unpopular system of taxa
on utterly foreign to the platform up
l which the Democratic party sue
ssfully appealed to the country in
' e election of iS)j. So far from be
r.gin to the Democratic conveiuijr.s
Pennsylvania and many other States
' .d never failed to denounce an in
me tax as inquisitorial, partial and
:cor.s:".t;.tional as '.org as u be'orged
the j-olYy of the Republican pasty,
is not strarge. then, that the De.no
at:c voters in Pennsylvania and
cry where else slioi.ld luxe Iven fill
xvith distrust and apathy xvlsen ihev
, xt their representatives in Corps's
Uirg and he5i;at'.rg over the putty
gramme asd p.-.:c:.:iig the cam cut
; Tan ft Reform with a cast vd ia of
"publican jxlicy.
In the midst cf so many causes of
; couragement the defeats that have
, ertaken the Democratic party are
Si'y accounted for. These defeats
the just penalty for wandering
Ija the true political path, and it is
k improbable that the party will ex-
ience similar chatlsements before
; v work ot" purgation shall have been
xvmplished. Iat the great hcirt of
Democacj is sou-.d to the core,
I there is no reason to doubt its
'Tt&c as well as powei to cany out
'orxlained political programme. In
other way can the party justify the
' Jsooofits existence. Oae of t:ie
- 1 steps toward purgation is to shake
, the machine managers, who abuse
i organization tv their selfivh ends,
4 the men in Congress who hax-e
'wtlen the principles of the party to
je local interests and private nwrio-
ts at the expense of tre pevp'f.

Democratic societies will prove a
powerful Auxiliary. The unselfish
character of these organizations, their
public spirit, and their devotion to the

fcELEOriMi LEGISLATION.
AXvim thf I'illfhnrg Timet.
" The ideal legislator is a scarce
article, but those familiar xvith Harris
burg alfairs, knu.v that by far the
greater number of the legislator try
to do the very best they know how.
Wherein the most of theni fail is just
because they don't know how. And
for this their constituents and not
themselves are generally to blame.
Legislation is ft biibineis an.l its very
nature makes necessary elaborate rules
and decisions based up. n these rules
for guidance in carrying on legislative
affairs. P.ut no , man however able,
ever leaiiuM these rules and their ap
plications neiorc he entered the leis
lattice or very soon after he did enter
He must see them put into actual
practice, p.nt the tiouble with the
most of them, leaving out the mem
bers from Philadelphia and Allegheny,
is that tliey did not get a second term.
Thus they are constantly represented
untried p.nd incxpeiicnccd men, who
after they have learned their business,
are retire. 1 to make room for others
who are put through exactly the same
process, livery one who h;!,s spent
any lime at Harrisbutg knows that for
very reason the business of legis'ation
is largely controlled by city members,
men neither abler nor better than the
country members, but xvho represent
mg constituencies winch rct irn them
for 8, io or 12 years have become so
lamiliar with legislative practice and
have so wide an acquaintance xvith
their colleagues and with public men
as to attain a prominence and in
fluence that no one. no matter how
bright and energetic, or hoxv brilliant
an orator, for the latter is a small
thing in legislation can train in a
single session, or even ia two sessons.
1 lie principal reason why country
vo.eis make this serious mistake is be
cause they too commonly regard the
office of legislator as a mere honor or
1 c ward lor party service rather than
the most responsible position in their
gift. 1 he argument too often used is
this: "He has had it once. If it is
a good thing, pass it around. Let
somebody else have his turn.' This
is a very low estimate put upon the
matter. Law making is too impor
tant a duty to put upon any man
merely because he may need the sal
ary. In lact the salary is not larce
enough to cut any figure in the tuns
action. Just now the people aie talk-
ing about whom they shall end to
Harnsburg next winter. There xvere
men h the last house xvho would be of
no account as legislators if they xvere
re-elected from now until the inillen
niutvt They should never have been
sent at all. P.ut a glance over the roll
of the House of 1S93 shows the names
of many men in both parties who have
proved their capabilities and useful
ness as leg.slatois. They have the
great adv.ir.t.e that legislative ex
petience .-nd that acquaintance xvith
those who will be reelected that xvill
tit tnetn for doing what it is supposed
legislators are elected to do oass sen
sible laws and spend the public money

Tha Etiquette of Visiting.
Married women leave tlmir hm
band's cards with their own; that is to j
say, one is left for the gentleman of
the house and one for the hostess,
writes Isabel A. Mallon in an ar'icle
on "The Art of Dressing for Visiting"
in tne April Jadics Joie . irit'il. i
A dinner party demands a call within i
two weeks, but this is not required !
atter a tea or a large reception. If a
friend is ill it is proper to call in per
son and leave a card with kind in
quiries written uron it. A verv nrettv
hnglish fashion is gradually finding its '
- . 1 j 1
wax- nere. Alter a severe 1 ness a
lady may send by mail to all the peo
ple wno i:axe called to inquire for her
an engrax-ed card reading in this way:
.Mrs. James brown presents her com
pliments and her th.'nks for recent
kind inquiries." This does away xvith
the necessity of making visits when
one is still m ill health, and yet it is
a recognition cf the courtesies receiv
ed. It is polite, aUo. to leave a card
of consratu'ation when a new babv
appears in the fami!x but one is never
expected to see the mother.
