Mr; Kuhn'i candidacy lor the office of Congressman' of this district, subject to;an independnt ' platform Treading i upon the beels'of the Rev.-Mr.' KubnV announcement is another ' one from Thomas J Study, declaring-that '.'the Democrats of this district will nominate' Mr. Kuhn and after that, Democrats and 'Republicans together will elect him, and furthermore, there iS no doubt about it. ' ' These two f Aiinouncements coming together on the same day necessitates taking Mr. Kuhn's avowal of independency with a gtain'of salt, as snch'an 'occuxiehce is moe than,a mere coincidence, and bears all the. earmarks -of;,. cairefu preparatiori,' Jjeforehand.- Such tactics, oh It He vpart of thef Democrats, however." , furnishes an excellent - Ulustration of the straits to which that party Has been reduced, plainly showing that they are so "'hardnpv for an issue upon which to' gVi befora the people 'and ask for ; & xfaajority' of votes, 'that they are ' cpmoelled " to humble themselves in the' dust xbef ore the name' inderWndericylHyw; often the 'Democrats have appealed; to the people to support the party of " Jefferson, and how proud Jefferson would be if he conld1 but see' hem now in their new pose of independency in politics! Truly a sight for the gods I Yet the ' disintegration of this old party is a distressing sight, M 5 A - Ll' ' 1 - . for in the past they have proved to

be worthy , opponents of Republican ship, to 1,51. The salary of the pasteel, but when in power have invar- tor, the Rev. T. W. Grafton, was inlably 'showed" by their inability to creased, and the board decided to en-

govern the country right and main tain ts prosperity, that. the. Repub lican party after all is the only par-

ty, to which the people of the nation services. Evangelist Hobson, of may look' for wis . government and a J Pasadena, Cal., and Miller, of Portcontinuation pf good times-r The land, Oregon, have .begun a revival Democrats think-they hate -a .chance, for the First M. E. congregation.'

Right at the present Jime , President Roosevelt Js engaged in the fight 'of'hfsifeniiTg to: effect what reform is needed -in his party, but what hope of success can he entertain if his party is driven from power! Supplanting Republican - representatives by Democrats simply. means a continuation of the old regime of misrepresentation and coruption. A party is not reformed by beipsr removed from S power.-' -It.-must'remain in the limelight of publicity to-be thoroughly purged, and that is one reason why the Democratic party today is unreformed.' Be? sides endeavoring to reform "a "party by 'hurling it from power is- ah "at tejnpt at radical reform, and bitter experience has taught that radical reform is 'worse than useless, for it does not last. And what this c&uftr I try is after is permanent reform, oth- j erwise n win ue . no ueiitrr u mtiii it was before. What President Roosevelt needs in his present fight are Republican representatives, so ReTtj-( lican voters of the sixth district, do cloaked in their new disguise of in-1 dependency. Hereafter the .merged j party -of Democrats -and - lndependehts will hare to ba called th Dem-ocratic-Indepenflent ."partj or no, rather the - Inrtependent-Domoratic party, irice; the Democrats have conented '-to-pJay "tail-endersv to tne Independent ?s lead-r-, A revision of an old adage,.' independency Rovers a multitude of Democratic) sins, it is strikingly true. o BEST INTERESTS "WHOSE? In the Senate yEsterday. Senator Foraker criticized the Hepburn' railtoad rate bill, and announced r himself as being in favor of Senator Elkins' measure on that question. In' a'snauch as both Senator Foraker and Senator Elkins are recognized as being railroad "property," it is not difficult to understand the similarity of these gentlemen's tastes in' - regard to railroad rate regulation. If; Will ? be remembered that Governor Dawson of West Virginia, which state boasts (?) Senator Elkins as its representative in' the Senate, receMV: wrote to a Senator of anotner Ute 'fdr relief "from a 'certain phase orailroad injustice," trecifUse he realised that SenatorjElking of his own fetatei 'wbujd ;payt n.0 attentipni to his j petition. " Ana yet' oenator roraser thinks that the measure, proposed by Senator Elkins would be for the best interests of the nation! 1 TWO-CENT? 1 FARE ENCOtJBAGE- ; MENT. At a time when the exponents and opponents 3of two-cent'' passenger fare legislation, are -engaged in a fight to the finish on this question, it: comes asa pleasant surprise to find' that President Mellen, of ' the' New York, New Hayen Hartford railroad?" has announced a voluntary rediicfioh bn his road to the two-cent basis. And as if to 'shov the opponents of this' measure that a railroad can f operate profitably! on a two-cent i .basis, .he! further announces a voluntary increase in-the wages of-all the -employes of ; the company. This action .on the part of President Mellen comes lat a'n6it opportune -time, and effectively answers one of the chief arguments against a compulsory twocent per'mile rate, namely, that it' would be too dnerous a burden for the railroads to sustain. , , 1,150 REVTVAli CONVERSIONS.
