Gome of the Democrats are pointing out that at least three of these—WII son. Harmon and Dlx—will figure as canfildates in the Democratic conven tion cf 1312. The argument Is made that should they be invited to a gen eral conference to map ont the future of the party they might quarrel over their personal policies and put the party ln a disagreeable light. Another Objection, equally serious la the opinion of the Democrats, that there would be a question of pro priety In the offering of advice by State olficers to the great Federal body. Congress. Democrats In Con gress hold that they were elected by the people to decide on legislation, and that no slvlce la needed from the lead ers In the various I9tates. The men who are holding ont for a general conference assert that this :s o no Hme for such splitting of hairs. The main thing Is to win the Presi dency In 1312. The wty to win it is to avoid mlsUkes from now nntll then. The way to avoid mistakes Is for ev erybody to get together and decide on a definite series of motives. Most of the Democrats agree that there should be conference* among the House and Senate members, op position being centerel merely on the proposition to bring the presidential candidates Into the happy congress ional fzznlly. RESIGNED AS PRESIDENT OF WESTERN-UNION. Not In TIideti'a time or In Cleve land's time was the democratic psrty so united as It Is now. Never before since the civil war has there been so general an agreement about the leaders and Issues ana op portunities. We are slmoet prepared to say thst for the first time in Ofty yeans there is a coherent democratic party which 1s sobered by victory and responsibility. Even six months ago democratic victory seemed to promlee nothing bet ter thin republican defeat and a pop ular rebuke of the party in power. But out of the welter of the campaign has come a new order of thing*.
