It is impossible to mention, In limited spara.1. all of
the improvements made by this administration. But
here Is sulhcieut to show positively that St. Louis
has the best kind of good government. The Demo
cratic delegates know what to say if they hear the
Democratic administration in St. Louis malign.O.
It is an administration that realizes advancement.
DKMOCKACY'S HOUK.
Democracy stands upon ihe threshold of aition
action the magnitude and significance of which
rank it with the great occasions in party and mtional
experience. The party of Jefferson and Jackson has
never faced a .situation of larger importance to lt.sel'
or entered upon deliberations of more vital conse
quence to the country. Xever has Amerlcau pol
tics disclosed a more inspiring offer to the party ol
the people.
Circumstances hold forth a chance which has not
failed to Impress the Democracy of the nation. It
lias been and Is of a character not to be denied: of
a brilliance to lire the impulse. Hope has long agi
been lit within the ranks; and confidence, courage,
resolve and effort, the successive unfoldlngs of pow
er, bring the party to the day of tho convention.
The opportunity has gradually widened as the day
approached, until to-day it appears as tho Terltuble
gate of victory. To-day Democrats th length and
breadth of the land and indeed not a few Kepublle
ans are hoping that the mighty Impulse which im
pels the p'irty's entrance upon the campaign of
promise will be tempered and dominated by tho tine
political Intelligence of which Democracy has shown
itself possessed in the past. Temperate action, con
trolled by sanity, wisdom and judgment, will assure
the country's ratification. Let there be no false
starts, no breaks, no unseemly departures. Let De
mocracy bo cautious and be sure it is right in the
matter of ifcs platform and its candidate
The position of the Democratic party during this
campaign will not be without Its difficulties. Of ne
cessity It must be the aggressor as to tho great is
suesand in aggression lie its dangers. The Repub
lican party has taken a narrow, defensive stand. Its
position is one of refusal to act, though the country
is thoroughly wea-y of standpatisro, of trust-tantf
Xi ranuy, of Federal corruption, and is more or less
impatient for relief. Democracy's aggression must
not assume even the remotest appearance or ugges
tion of destructlveness. Democracy's genuine pur
pose looks to :i simple, sane betterment. Involving
nothing uav holesome, involving no "change" or
"conditions" for the worse, but rather the promotion
and perpetuation of "good times" Involving "dis
turbance" of nothing but private monopoly's tariff
plunders, extortions and exclusive absorption of pro
ductive facilities; and of the vast and comprehensive
swindling system in the Federal service. Because of
the delicacy of its position in aggression the Dem
ocratic party must emphasize tha sanity of its meas
ures and proposals, and In the platform carefully re
frain from ambiguous language which might be
twisted Into a menace to legitimate business and
financial interests and the commercial enstoms of
the country. It is a reconstructlonist ra'.iier than
an Iconoclastic motive which posse33es the Democra
cy of 1004 and the declarations thereof should be un
mistakable. The delicacy of Democracy s position
Is Increased by the calamity-howllug ltepublican
press with its misinterpretations, false warnings and
hypocritical expostulations, behind which Is sought
to be concealed the sordid and obstruction policy of
its party. Democracy must with high Intelligence
and tact anticipate as far as possible the twlstmgs
and distortions of the machine-hired newspapers.
For the nominee give us a man with genuine
Democracy as a prime possession. Let it be reflect
ed in his character and in his career. He should be
of a type embracing and embodying the profound,
eternal principles of the party a type which will
summon and elevate the voter above narrow con
siderations; a type whldh will appeal to real and
honorable party sentiments and stir the deeper loyal
ties of men; a type to beget and spread the spirit of
large liberality, propitiation, common purpose, to
move the master impulses above small rankling, to
inspire with the Indomitable courage of triumph; a
character to draw irresistibly the sympathy and en
thusiasm of the people and transform the country
Into a personal following. In a word, let the can
didate be one grounded in Democracy and fitted by
character, mind, temperament, training and expe
rience for the work before him.
A Democratic President is wanted, for a plain
purpose to preserve the internal integrity and vigor
of this country and maintain its security" In its for
eign relationships. He must be a "safo" man in
whom we may repose the utmost confldenco for the
ordinary business of the Government and a person
of sound disposition and judicial temperament for
foreign affairs.
The Democratic nominee for President should
be the direct antithesis of Mr. Theodore Roosevelt.
Give us a man of temperate speech and temperate
conuuet; a man who disdains the spectacular and is
above the Pickwickian, a man whose spleen and Im
pulses we may not fearand whose enthusiasm will
not rush us into dangerous extremes.
The Roosevelt character is an issue in this cam
paign. Let it serve Democracy as an example of
the things to be avoided in a candidate, the disqual
ifications. The Republican platform expressly putB
Mr. Roosevelt In Issue. Let Democracy answer that
issue by naming a man In whom the people as a
whole may place profound confidence. Mr. Roose
velt signifies uneasiness and disturbance. Give us
in place of strenuosity and recklessness an example
of force and wise conservatism. Mr. Roosevelt
loves war. Give us Instead a genuine patriot who
loves peace first., Mr. Roosevelt Is an lntermcddler
In foreign affairs. Give us rather a discreet Presi
dent to keep us free from international entangle
ments. Mr. Roosevelt is a spasmodic "reformer"
who stops short of results to pursue mere political
expedients. We should have a man who follows a
correct principle all the way against corruption in
the Federal service. Mr. Roosevelt in catering to the
negro vote makes color discriminations in favor of
the black race. Let us have a man who, if elected,
will not Insult the best citizenship of the United
States by his appointments.
"We don't need any platform," said a recent Dem
ocratic adviser. "All we need is a good safe man.
Mr. noosevplfs'record furnishes Democracy enough
Issues." This is not wholly true, but it is full of
suggestion. .
The winning of the victory in 1904 is to ba a
great undertaking. It is a "large order," and there
have been some expressions of awe at the magni
tude of the undertaking. But tho great chance is
here. Let Democrats take the broadest view of ihe
situation and Its possibilities. It is a churlish and
disaffected spirit lndepd which can resist the arpeal
for liberality and patriotism at this time. It is a
perverse human nature which can submit to narrow
restraints; a niggardly spirit which could abldp the
prospect of losing the election after the loss of -two
elections when a fine spirit of accord, an Intelligent
procedure and a live contest will bring the victory.
.
ACCIDENTS THROUGH FUN. . (
St. Louis had a comparatively quiet Fourth of
July and,the record of Injuries and damages was
iseJoja, of aneyq,
caused by a stray bullet. At the City Dispensaiy
thirty-one accident cabcs were treated. There were
elxteen fire alarms. Four plate-glass windows were
broken. This is a list of the casualties which may
be attributed directly to the celebration. Among
the persons Injured twenty-three were between 4
and 10 j ears of age, live between '20 and 30, and
three over 30.
As a Fourth of July record this is flattering, for
numerous accidents nie expected, it might bo said
that the deith of a man in a Missouri city, through
holding a giant firecracker in his hand, evoked no
great surprise; because such accidents were ex
pected. But, if a list of accidents and damages,
such as Is presented above, were published another
day than July 5, the community would become ex
cited and demands Mould be heard for tho enforce
ment of severe regulations and the application of
stern punishment.
If severe regulations are necessary at other times
throughout the year, v. by not on the Fourth? Does
tho pursuit of pleasure justify lecklessness and dan
ger? Kvery precaution is taken to prevent acci
dents from street cars nnd vehicles. Every disturb
ance of the peace is discountenanced by the whole
public. And yet tliero Is Indecision and indifference
about Fourth of July dangers.
The thirty-one accidents, sixteen alarms of fire
and destruction of four plate-glass windows in St.
Louis, on the Fourth, could have been preventI.
They were minor casualties, excepting the one; but
they were casualties, nevertheless due to the man
ner of celebrating the day. The accidents cwild bava
been worse, even fatal.
For threo yearn St. Louis has enforced laws and
regulations for a sensible Fourth, thereby reducing
the number of accidents and removing much of the
probability of accident. Chicago took similar steps
this year. And now It may be asked if the time has
not come when action should be taken toward pro
hibiting the use of fireworks altogether in all cities
and towns. Ono serious accident, one death or one
fire should suffice for insistence upon a change in
custom. With the list of casualties still prominent
In mind, It Is a fit time to advocate reform.

JIaurlce Barrymore's lease of life Is well-nigh ended.
One of his nurses was in town on Tuesday and said that
he did not give his patient more than ten days or so
more.
This person said that he had moments of complete
lucidity, when, for a short time, came flashes of his old
time merriment. But he added that the head Is now all
of Barrymore that Is .wholly alive.
Tho body is In a condition of torpor from neck to
feet, and Is ,at no time .under self-control. It is without
movement or even sensation.
Everything Is being done for Barrymore, this nurse
says, that can add to his comfort or prolong his days.
But, under the circumstances, that Is necessarily very
little. Death, In such a condition, should be a welcome
relief. Vale.

BIG MAP ILLUSTRATES
ODD MISSOURI FACTS.
nislient Point in the State Only 1,-
8(H) Feet Atioic the 1x-e
of the sea.
That tho highest point in Missouri
but 1,800 feet above the leel of tho sea
is one of tho man interesting topo
graphical facts discoered by Missourians
who examine tho large relief map of the
State in the Model Library in the Missouri
State building at the World's Fair.
This "mountali" Is Iron, known by the
residents of the county as Tomsuck, and
from its point radiate the different geo
logical formations of the Central Mis
sissippi Valley.
Another Interesting disclosure Is tho
evident route tnnersea by tho Missouri
Elver in past geologic ages. In tho, noith
central part of tho State the Missouri's
present course deviates from the north
east to the southeast. By the map can
bo seen tho logical continuation of Its
course from tho western border of tho
State to a point between where Hannibal
and the Iowa State line are now situated,
which geologists declare was tho original
confluence of the Missouri and Mississippi
rivers. The relief map also shuns that
Missouri has lands below the riter leel.
The map shows etry post oflico In the
State. The map was designed and exe
cuted by Doctor C. 1"". Marbut. profest-or
of geology of the State UnUcrsity, with
the assistance of a corps of students.
