Democratic lluiicleniineaa.
Tlije mysterious popularity of Judge
j Paricr of tiiis state as a prospective
presidential candidate is the visible i
- emblem of Democratic hopelessness
and dissension. An empty honor is to
be Bestowed on a barren record, if not
an empty name. We have called him
the Democratic John Doe, and the
phrase is good enough. llow much the
party fears even to take up its old
shiboleth, free trade, is evidenced by
the Chicago speech of the astute Ed
ward M. Shepard. lie decries "a gen
eral revision of the tariff," admits "the
widespread popular belief in protec
tion" and would confine the Democrat
ic attack to"the few schedules in
which, through such practical monopo
ly, vast fortunes have been made."—
