THE DEMOCRAT PARTY
AWAITING THE LEADER
“We have received from Mr. A. E. Davy, who signs himself ‘Organiser Democrat Party,’ a long ‘statement’ which he asks ns to publish ‘in reply to the speech delivered in the Reform Club by Mr. . Coates, ’ ” says the Dohyniori. “Since we are not publishing it, Mr. Davy has a right to know why. His statement is not a personal explanation, nor a reply to anything said about the Democrat Party—supposing there to be one. Indeed Mr. Coates made ho reference to that peculiar psychic manifestation: he stayed on earth to deal with the pressing political problems of the moment. Therefore we cannot see that a general reply to his case, even when set under the alarmist heading ‘Mr. Coates Deserts Reform,’ would be properly made by a ‘statement. - If' Mr. Davy really lias a party, there must be a leader or moving spirit somewhere in the background. If he has neither party nor leader, then perhaps he has an employer. When he produces one or the other to reply to Mr. Coates on Qie public platform, we shall be pleased to report the address.”
