Tbe day after tbe (eorropt ballot box) defeat of Mr. Bryan was eonoeded in tbe former year, And again after the same (bat war bought) event in 1UU0, we de soribed the triumph of tbe Republicans And Clevelandltei a tbe "Triumph of tbs Hegro party," and not a few were the abiding of those of oar eontempo rariet who seemed t t(h politioal "peaee at any prioe" a tonditiop sinoe nnhemistieallv called "harmony in tbe party,". .We are glad to note In srewing eTidenoM tbaUh'e resi Dm ooratio prasa je getting to be of oar way of thinking. Here is a oomtorting blast oa tbis snbieot from tbe Raleigh News and Observer of yesterday i A SEAL DANGER. Tbe Demooratio outlook brightens. Everybody who oomes in contaot wilb tbe bDBinees world in tbe great cities ot tbe M ortb say it is in the air that there will be a change in (he oeoopaot of tbe White House. Tbe whitest ot Mr. Roosevelt soares prndent business men. His nsarpation of power in tbe Panama incident, tbe blaokest page of oar international history, shows that he at anv moment mav plunge tbis country into war. He seems to tbiLk that he is a SapoleoB, able to aot witbent await ing or seeking the concurrence ot ion gress. In otber matters bis niorpa tiou ot power and his recklessness have alarmed conservative men who would prefer a safer man at tbe helm. If tbe Demoorats are wise they will get tbe bulk ot this vote. The real danger to Udmooraoy le that, seeing some hostility toward Roosevelt beaaaBe ef bis opposition to tbe Northern Bsoarities sonspjrapy to make a railroad trust, they will seek to obtain the support of the Morgans and other trust interests now said to be personally hostile to Dir. ttooeeveit tor tbe ohief good thing he has done. He is a ooarageoot man apd nobpdy owns him. That is an ofFense to the Morgan orowd. They, would like to see him defeated if the Demooratio nominee would wear their yoke, lo the Intense desire to win. the real danger to Da moeraoy is that its leaders will incline to eater to this class of support. If they do, the defeat ot tbe party will be ten foL4 mote crushing tban in 1894 when the Demooratin party lost every Northern state aqd fo&r pr gve South urn status. Writing of tha character of that support, the Norfolk Viginian- Pi ot savs: Tbe objection of tbe Uepublioan party to fv30sevelt is that be is too honest and too courageous for tbe oroiked interests that nil the campaign barrel uDon tbe nnderstanding tbat an acceptable candidate oe named upon an acceptable platform. It is bare iustice to Roosevelt to say that so far these interests nave not Deen aoie to acauire ownership and control of him For that reason tbey hate bim, as Ihey hate everybody tbey cannot oontiol, and for tbat reason tbey ate prepared to knife bim. He has had, from tbeir noint of vibw, tbe anbuatd of enroot- are- In draff sous of them into tbe courts of law and to interfere with tbe benevolent, purpoee of others to starve ont their employes and to frena not tbe country. For tbis tbe whole outfit, with tbe fellow feeling piracy begets, stands ready to contribute to bis defeat in order to teaoh A'pif)Og statesmen oooe for all tbat honesty in politics doesn't pay." While we do not accord to Mr. Roosevelt tbe place on tbe high pe destal given him by our contemporary, we honor him for instituting tbe sui againBt tbe Northern Securities oora pany and for making tlj treasury de pertinent more independent of Vall street, We ooold hope that those two good aats are indicative of his general policy bgt it f evident that be will not carry tbe war iuto4'rioa and en force tbe law against other giant trusts. There is some donbt whether he wi I use all bis power to prevent tbe transportation monopoly. It is pre dicted that while be will not capitulate, be will not be strppnous in carrying ont the polioy orinenod jn tbe Northern securities company save. It is certain that, while two or three great trust magnates do not like bim, he has made friends ot most ot tbe "mammon of unrighteousness." In the oampaign, who will say that the very trust mag nates now publicly antagonistic will not support bim earnestly 1 With Ban na, Aldrieb,(iJay and the otber trust senators guaranteeing to give them tj they want, will not those powetf bI sen ators be able to keep tbe trusts in line for Coosevelt who has never prosecut ed a singly ftgst that is doing business, coniloing his opcoaition to a suit to oraveot a oerfeof monopoly of trans Dortatioo t It Morgan and tbo others could get a Democrat pominated a ac ceptable to tbem as uieveiann wa, thev would contribute to both earn paign foods, go to Europe and divide tbeir yassals among tbe two, not ear ing greatly which party came out on top. isn't ineir gaip ui auueiug Bydales Stomach TableU.

( uvuys v,vr v Roosevelt and ooarting Democrats too apparent to fool anybody f Tbey know that, while Roosevelt may trouble tbem now and tbent tbey own tbe ttepnou- ean party, body, soul and breeones, Tbey now wish to bold out the tempta tion of a big campaign rood betore tne Democrat and sednee tbem, If tbey oan do tbis, then the trust magnates oaukeepoo robbing tbe people, no matter wbieb party wins. If tbe Demooraoy should listen to the Pierpont Morgan siren song and be siUnt when it is the only hope ot tbe oountry, it would deserve to be de feated. Its doty is to stand against "robbery under tbe form ot law" as well as robbery by illegal trusts, and to voioe tbe demands of tbe great American people for a fair ehanoe wbiod the trusts have throttled. It ean win in no other wav. It will de serve to win along no otber line. Its business is to stand true to tbe Interests of the whole people against favoritism in legislation. If, in tbe nope ot sup port from trusts, it name a figure head and writes an ambiguous plat form, it will both lose" it character and tbs hope of iqosess. A careful study of tbe platform of 1878 and a teauing cr Ura outy ot Deiaaorauy, in tbe light of that oampaign, will bring a dear vision ot tbe duty ot tym to every loyal Democrat. " It tbe Demoeraoy should nominate a candidate aooeptabl to Cleveland, tbe oondition ot trust ownership of both parties, so well portrayed by our Ual igh contemporary, will have tome into being.

W1UHI tO 111 DIVOOaAfiO I AATT Norfolk Virglnlaa-Pllot The obances of Demooratio victory have not been brighter in a quarter of a eentnry than they are at tbi time. The eoontiy Is tired ot tbe Republics patty with its oniurpations. ana. ei travagaoaes and soepdals. It wf.nts a change and is ready to-. .it - ih mo cratio party into power to get tbat ohaoge. Also, the Republican party is tired of Roosevelt and a eonsiderble section of it is ready to vote tbe party ont ot power to get rid ot bim, if tbat is the only way. And yet it will be very easy matter tor tbe iJemocratic party to throw avay Ko oanpes. Tb reason of tbe elation js worth look ing into. Tbe obieotion of the country to Roosevelt is tbat he is too rash and ecoentrio. Nobody knows what mad die he will get himself and tbe nation into next. He keeps legitimate bust ness interests on pins and needles for tbisreason. He is literally an unsafe man, a man who opght not to be trust edwith th tremendous powers of his present tSUe. Tbat obieotion is wholesome and tborongbly reasonable I. is creditable to tbe ooontry's com mon sense as well, Tbe objsotloo ot the Republican party to Roosevelt is tbat be is too honest and too coorge"us for tbe crooked interests tbat fl I ihe oampaign barrel upon tbe understanding that an acceptable candidate be named npon an acceptable platfoim. It is bare jastiee to Roosevelt to say tbat so far these interests have not been able to acq lire ownership and oontrol uf him For that reason tbey hate him, as tbey bate everybody they oannot oontrol and for tbat reason they are prepared to knife bim. He has bad, from their point of view, the unheard of (ffron tery to drag some of tbem into tbe courts of law and to interfere wi.b tbe benevolent purpose of others to starve oat their employes and fretz-j oat tbe ooQofry. For tbis the whale outfli witb the fellow feeling piracy begets stands ready to soutribote to hit de teat in order to teacn aepinog states men onee tor all that h joesty in politics doesn't pay, And herein lies the danger to the Democratic oartv the danger tbat it may pot too high aa estimate upon tbe value of the support of these pirates of polities. ue uarrui is a yaigaoie au junot 10 a oampaign, but it isn't every thing by any means. Tbe people count, and tbe people thick for thtmielves in increasing numbers every year. Tbat fact it behooves tbe Demooratio party to keep in mind at tbis juncture We do not Jeliye" tiiat ibe Democrats oan beat Roosevelt in 1904 with a cor poration batg on an anti-trust plat form. And yot that s precisely tbe sort of combination the hungry pro fessional politicians of tbe party are preparing to pat up. Ihey want to split tbe ears of tbe groundlings witb denunciation of trusts in the platform and tick'e tbe Wall street aggregation by naming a man on tbe platform wbo frill da nothing against trusty if ieoted. And if tbis be done, it is onr deliberate judgment that tbe Democrats will fall down in tbe election, beoaase tbe fact oannot be concealed from the people Tbe election of 1896 should contain a lesson and a warning for Demoorats along tatis hue. in that naippaign the boodle interest of the oqotry were an absolute unit against tbe Democracy. The party leaders did not have money enough to pay the railroad fare of tbe stumpers. And yet Mr. Bryan proba bly won before the people. And he won bopaU'O 1)8 was dret and, oonra geoos. ujosevelt bas tbe same fluali ties, and it ibe Damoorats pot up a trus'-made oandidate they are going to have the job of tbeir lives to defeat Roosevelt before tbe people.

These are tome things the rank and file of tbe Democracy shoold think upon, for if tbey leave the matter to the politicians they are going to do just what we have indicated name a igst gandidate on an anti-trust plat 1.1..

Qrovt'i dgnatort la on Vesns aaal Jallel, -. 1 A latge audience greeted Simvelle's Prodnotion oi Romeo and Juliet in tbe opera house Thursday evening, and indications cropped out all through that they enjoyed the performance. TueplajjWas well mounted, and the oostamirrjrwae handsome and in keep ing. Tne presentation, by a traveling company, of the legitimate drama, and especially tbe legitimate Shakspearian drama, involves herculean labor, for Shakspeare was not only a gieat dram atist but a playwright, who staged hie woik elaborately and with minute at tention to every detail; and tbe pro fession regards Romeo and Juliet as one ot the most difficult of all Shaks- peare's plays to render betore the foot lights. O! course Mortelle and Miss Clarke were the stars, personating tbe oentral figures ot tbe tragedy. Mr. Mortelle bas evidently carefully and conacien tionsly studied tbe part ot Romeo., and ins Interpretation is intelligent and satisfactory. If h; conld take to himself Ihe b&udcorme person and tbe graceful bearing of Mr. Finch, as Ty balt, or if the latter bad tbs former's close study of tbe hapless beir of the Montagues, one might say, as did Qiince, in "Midsummer Night Dream," "there's a pla well fi.ted." Despite Bom? shortcomings in voioe and phras ing, Miss Louise Cia.ke is a very pleas ing Juliet. Her pose and carriage are easy and maidenly, while she is natural and f re of mannerism. nleruutio g one of the most subtle, many sided and versatile characters in all the vast repertoire of Sbakspeare, and no amount of bistriooio taleut would be too much for bis portrayal. Therefore it would perhaps be too much to say tbat the Msroatio of last evening was first rait, bat Mr. Browae is a eanfnl artist, is weil op id tbe part and carried bi j "lines" effectively. Miss Mary Taompsoa, tbe Narsj, was excellent. Tne subordinate support was not striking but fair. The reporter cannot see why the great majority of an intelligent, deoo rous audience ehonld be compelled to endure tbe bud behavior of a rude mi nority. At times last night the noise anJ diso der were very a.nn.oyiqrj, and should hve Men sharply ebecked. tiqnng tbo last soeoe some persons took it on themselves to "guy" the act ors on tbe stage by whistling, groans, etc Tbis is in very bad taste, even where tbe actors are so unfortunate as to deserve i; those last evening did not deseive it. It is regrettable that much of tbe disturbance was not made by tbe riff r fl bat by tbe children of well-raised people, who would be lock ed to koow tbat their boys and girls were not ocmporting themselves well.
