•; i Reamtiy. there has been, ta^t of Euper
oeding^ Representative-^ „Richardson. Richardson as
Democratic . leader" in iije^Hous'e, and for,,
the" reason." It Is* stated; i That Hhe minority'
•"has cut no figure: under, ills, leadership.;
The Philadelphia Ledger, however, comes
-■■ - - - -. . .■ .-. ■'.- - - . .;
;to the defence of the Tennesseean. and in
'. raising the question ; whether the failure
<tf the i Democrats to- cut any-figure under
■ $&r. / Richardson the latter.'a fault, ,lays
down' Eome propositions and Indulges in
some criticigms of the ;:minorlty,» which
jiay -well give the party,' pawse. ' j ■
■ To begin": wi ih, the Ledger^ observes that
to- be a 'successful . party,' 'leader, " it' is
inecesieary to have a party to lead ■* a party
that ptays" together,; and "is'.wilHng to go
in one direction.-" ''When," ii-conttques,
;,;*a'' party Insists. In golng^in 'various nrr,
<iontr^ury . directions, every man In ...his
own -way. the most inspired leader' ever
born;could- not make it "cut any figure 1
not be ridiculous." /"..•>••• - ■ '-:
Next our Philadelphia contemporary, re
tnarka that if the Democrats in the House
.will advance so far m to agree upon what
.-.they ..want ■ to do," a. leader niay % have somo
chance : ' to_ r lead. (^ Bnt; ■ . it' : concludes, » with
