Democrats are making the asfounding discovery that what they thoughttwas Republican apathy wa really Republican contentment. Positive evidence that the Democrats believe in the gold standand may be found in almost every western state, where the gold and silver Democrats are fighting each other as viciously as they did in 1896 and 1900. Among the other charges of extravagance Judge Parker omitted to call attention to the fact that the interest on the government debt was $9,000,000 less last year than it was under Mr. Cleveland’s administra. tion.

Tbe newspapers have not reported any boom in real estate at Esopus. Apparently the possibility that tbe summer home of the president may be there next year isn’t taken eriously. . Judge Parker complains that sh expense of the administration under President -Roosevelt is greater than that under Cleveland, Yes and the government is paying the expense in cash instead of adopting tbe Cleveland plan of borrowing money in times of profound peace,
