At seventy-eight he is still the junior of Senator Pettus by several years (and he will be re-elected), and more favorable mention at " the South as time goes on. . As we have already said; we do not. doubt that he deserves it all, and more. The South, however, cannot elect a President, and unless the doubtful States of the North and Middle West can be brought to ac cept Judge Parker as the safest and wisest Chief Executive available, his nomination would be a mere futility. If the Democrats win in 1904. they must f i r " soorain, nonn ui me i uiuinau turn uic Ohio, about as many electoral votes as the solid South contributes to the col lege. The question, therefore, is not one of pleasing the South, for that vote can be counted on with absolute se curity, no matter who the candidate may'be. The Question is one of nomi nating a man who will command the confidence and secure the active sup port -of the great business interests in the debatable States. The party which nominates that kind of candidate in 1904 will win. There is no sentiment in money matters. Th Party Tbat Will Win In 1904 .(Washington Post.)

On New Year's Day at Delhi. India. there will be perhaps the most mag nificent pageant of modern times in honor of Edward VII, of England, Em peror or India, In short, the durbar will be held then: What is the durbar? The - word itself is of Persian origin, signifying originally a King's audience chamber .and hence the assemblies that congregate ' in such a chamber. Probably the briefest and most vivid account of a durbar in the English; language is to be found in the Second Verse of the Third chapter of the Book of Daniel: . . Then Nebuchadnezzar, the King, sent to gather together the Princes, the Governors .. and . the Captains the Judges, the Treasurers, the Counselors, the Sheriffs and all the rulers of the Provinces to come to- the dedication of the image which Nebuchadnezzar, the King, set up. i . if Edward's coronation was by force of circumstances deprived of some of, its glory,' the gorgeous celebration of his , accession to the imperial throne of India will . make, amends. Princes, Governors, Captains, etc., when they gather together with their guests, bring with them many shekels of silver and many shekels of gold. They spend the coin lavishly. And the ancient arts and industries of the Orjent-for which Delhi is still famous-will receive a new and vigor ous stimulus. Motor cars are to be al lowed, but not within the city wals. We ' hear so much of horses being frightened by a motor car, but imagine the scene of a 40-horse-Power Panhard run teuf-teuf-teufing down an avenue of unaccustomed, elephants. As it is, tjhe authorities have been warned that the noiie and excitement of the bands and s&lutes may upset the equilibrium of the more emotional pachyderms. At the durbar of 1877 several .accidents oc curred from runaway elephants. . In all the splendor of the pageant there' will be three figures of special prominence. Of greatest consequence is Lord Curzon, Viceroy of India'and Edward's .direct representative. .Next to hmV Js". the. beautiful Liady Curzon, an American girl, who for the day will lord it over Princess and Peerless. The third important figure will be Arthur, Duke of Connaught, Edward's only living brother, who -will represent the royl bl od at the Indian coronation, fete. These three will be seated on g It irin? thrones, draped in imperial crimson and gold, the Viceroy in the centre, Lady "Curzon at his left and the Where.are theyTv'Ah! dim In the dust lies the clover; The whippoorwill's call has a sorrow ful tone, And the dove's I have wept at it over ; and over I want the glad lustre - Of youth, and the cluster Of faces aslejep where the bumble-bees R.
