Thirty-six hours Vthey were already beginning lxl worried; they were begin Vto realize that they would j t0 put themselves on record Prions matters, and they can- escape from knowledge of tne that when their party goes on d the country fixes to go re- iican again. By Thursday night, lember 10. there were already cations of a probable split on Wrf nniirv and a auarrel on distribution of committee ap- tmnt and this in spite of AUiWU VV - faot that it may be twelve HIV m ths before the next congress r iV M :he democrats had the jsident, ttie swiaXe and the hous& . W went on record in various vs. They began to da business : ' Otieir own fashion; and, as Yice- ident Sherman expressed it in AsheviJJe speech, as soon as the kbcrats bean to do business, the Jmoy quit doing business. The sord of the democratic party was extraordinary that the country republican in 1894, and the ouse ha3 been continuously repub xoii from that time to this. In 396 a republican President was !scted, and there has never been a s.3mocratic 'President since. The aate wentepublican at the first pportunity and is still republican These are the things that happen yk the democrats go on record; a next year they will have to go in iord again. That is what is irsrryirjg them now. ! yet that is what has happened Flushed with victory, they began" to talk over - their ? plans; they must elect a speaker, appoint committees agree on a policy. This last point is already troubling them. They are pledged to an anti-protec tion policy; they have (quite in sincerely) denounced "the robber tariff;" they have declared in. their platforms that "protection is rob- bery;" uiid now. when they begin to plan some action in lino with their professed beliefs, they find them selves threatened with a revolt in their own party. Democratic con gressmen who have been howling against the tariff - dare not enact a law which will make any sweeping reductions in the tariff; their .con stituents will not stand for any such thing. Within thirty-six hours after its. election, the "victorious democracy is split wide open on the question of making some sort of attempt to stand by its alleged principles. And then there are the appoint ments. Champ Clark wants to be speaker, and thinks that he will be. Jie has fought against the house rulesf but if he:still favors the change in the rules, he leaves him self without power:; and if . he goes back on his ; opposition to the old rules, he wil Jtemdic& lous. And who is to appoint the committees? If'the rules re chang ed (as Ctatk, while on the opposi- tion side, advocated), then the conv mittees will be appointed by the house; and -we may see, the speaker (who is an- ayowed; 'free-trader) muzzled by' protectionist commit tees. Furthermore, it is already evident, , even, to the' democrats, that although the new house will have a large democratic majority; yet the great preponderance of ad ministrative and executive - ability will be on the republican side. . , And thus the country finds : itself confronted by an unusual spectacle: the democrats, who have just won a big victory, are already worried and rattled; the republicans, ; who have lost for the first time since 1892, are " cheerful and confident, and are looking t forward ton big repubhcan victory in J912.
