Ju'Jpe U. B. Nicholson of Council
Grove, Kan., is one of Ihe ablest nnd
best known ltwyers in Kansas. He
Las been a life-long democrat anil
was elected judge of bis Judicial dis
trict for two terms by tbe. fusionists.
He gives the following reisons for
supporting McKtnley, which we copy
from the Abeline Reflector of Aug.
9, inst., kindly handed us by a Dalles
man who is an old-lime friend and
acquaintance of Judge Nicholson.
The judge says:
'I never voted the Republican
lickit, but I will support President
McKinley this fall. Old issues have
been re'egated to the rear, and new
duties and higher resposibilities are
upon us. The present attitude of
tbe democratic party is not patriotic.
I propose to vote for McKinley this
fait, if I live as long as that.
"I have grown weary of the course
that is being pursued by the oppo
nents of McKinley, in fact I have
been getting more and more weary
ever since the Spanish-American war
broke out. I wasn't much in favor
of getting into that war. I thought
it might have been avoided, but wc
got, into it and from that time there
was no course for a loyal man to pur
sue except to sustain bis country.
My boy enlisted and while I hated to
see hiin go, I did not try to dissaude
him. Before the war commenced
the opposition, thst is our party, were
doing their best to drive McKinley
into it, ready or not ready. McKin
ley was doing his best to prevent n
war and I honor him for it. It was
the right thing, tlie patriotic, the hu
mane, the statesmanlike course to
take. As soon as war was declared
the very people who had been howl
iugat McKinley for not commencing
sooner began to abuse the adminis
tration because there was some sick
ness and lack of equipment among
tbe troops. They never missed an
opportunity to abuse McKinley and
bis administration, . although there
never has been an army of 250,000
men gotten together and equipped
under the same circumstances in the
same length of time.
'It was sitnp'y wonderful that the
gcvernoieiit of tbe United States was
able to do it. Since the war com
oenced everything else has followed
os a natural and logical sequence, but
the democratic managers have done
nothing but kick, kick, kick. There
bus never been a time since Dewey
bailed into Manila bay that our gov.
ernroent could have let go of tbe
' Philippine islands with consistency
or honor. We destroyed tbe only
government there was in tbe islands
and we are in duty bound to supply
a government in the place of the one
we have destroyed. To say nothing
about military or commercial consid
erations, it would be an unchristian
like act, a cruel act, a contemptible
acl, for tbe United States to with
draw our troops now. It would leave
the natives who have been friendly
to us at the rrercy of a banditti,
whose only idea and purpose would
be revenge and plunder. McKinley
has been right in his course in the
Philippines. He wag right allj the
way through the war with Spain and
I propose to support him. I have
always been a democrat, but I am an
expansionist all over. There is
neither patriotism nor common sense
in the course the democrats are pur
sing now and I don't propose to stay
with there.
Colonel Bryan's principal aids in
bis second presidential campaign are
Hearst's yellow newspapers, the "Ex
aminer," "American" and Y.
"Journal." They all now howl
''anti-imperialism" and are Oiled
with tbe most brutal of alleged car
toons of President McKinley. Vet
only a few months siice the Exam
iner was the roost blitant of ex
pansion organs. In its issue of
April 2", If 9;, it said in criticising
Col. Ilryar : "Wc tiust that Mr.
Bryan will jet range himself in line
with tbe national aspirations for
expansion. The time has come, as
it comes at intervals to every vigor
ous nation as it has come to ours
on several former occasions when
the old boundaries are too contracted
for the pulsing life within them, and
when the health of the body politic
demands that room. The popular
Instinct understands the need for
these reriodical expansions, and
every genuine statesman understands
it, too. Tbe popular Instinct of a
nation cannot be changed in sixteen
months, nor can a creature of ex
pediency be converted into a states
man by an appeal to the truths of
history. Mr. Bryan may think he is
close to the people, and that bis silly
talk about "imperialism" moves
them, but he w ill soon find out that
Americans ore as much in favor of
expansion today as they were when
they applauded the acquisition of
the Louisiana territory by that noted
imperialist, Thomas Jefferson."
"Out at Abilene Saturday," says
the Ottawa, Kansas, Herald, "the
republicans held a county conven
tion. The chairman who presided
over the convention was a Bryan
man in 1896, every dclegato from
one township, that of Detroit, in the
eastern part of tbe county, voted for
Bryan in 1896. There was fully a
dozen men sitting hs delegates in the
convention who voted for Bryan in
1890, but who will vote for McKin
ley this fall."
The democratic upology for free
silver is that it is way down toward
the tail of the platform as though
that were evidence that they did not
mean it. It they do not mean it,
they nre trying to fool the country
with a falsehood, knowing it to be
such. If they do mean it, in the
event of securing a democratic house
and Bryan's election, they will not
delay in commencing to tinker with
the tariff snd trifle with the financial
policy of the government.
One Colorado republican club has
grown since 1896 from a member
ship of twenty to 2000. Colorado is
expected to return to the party of
progress this year. I'.ryan's speech
at Indianapolis, devoted exclusively
to the phantom of imperialism,
ought to settle that.
aaBMMMSaWH
"Bry an's course leads to altruism,"
says a Biyanile admirer in the
Spokesman-Review. Thai's it ex
actly. And Altruism is the political
synonym of socialism, nnd socialism
is the next door to anarchism, and
anarchism is the next door to perdi
tion. The country was perfectly satisfied
with the result of the election of
1896, and thousands of those who
did not vote for McKinley expressed
themselves as pleased with the result
of tbe election. It will be the same
in 1900.
It is becoming evident that Mr.
Bryan does not want much said
about free silver before the election.
The American people, however, are
not so much ccncerncd in what may
be said before election as in what
will be done after the election.
According to Senator Tillman,
stuffing ballot boxes and shooting
negroes in South Carolina is oil right.
He would have us piotect the brown
man only when he is engaged in
emulating the example of Aguinaldo
and firing on our flag.
All voters who desire to exchange
the industrial and financial conditions
of 1900 for those which obtained in
1892 should have the courage of their
convictions and vote for William
Jennings Bry an.

Mr. Bryan lays tbe republican
party puts the dollar before the man.
So it does, and it is much better than
placing an empty dinner pail bcfoie
hiui.
The sugar trust made the Wilson
Gorman tariff bill and Mr. Bryan
voted for it. Was that cot "placing
the money before the man?"
THE DALLES WEEKLY CHUONICLE. SATURDAY. SEPTEMBER 1. 1900.
A BRYASITE FABR1VATIOS
A few days since the editor of this
pu;.r ovcrheaid a Hannaized striker
undertaking to convince a wheat
raiser that it was necessary for Lim
to vote for McKinley in order to
keep tbe country from going to the
devil and himself from going to ruin.
Tbe argument used was tbe same
advanced Id 1896, and sounded
rattier familiar. It was like this: "If
Bryan is elected, the next morning
after his election is certain you will
receive a picmptory demand from
the bank to come in and take up
your notes on the accomodations you
have received, and your merchant
wil! notify you to come in immedi
ately and settle your account.
Times-Mountaineer.
Our contemporary's zeal for Bry
anism has led him into what a less
friendly critic than The Chronicle
would call a fabrication. His "tale
of woe" is unquestionably founded
on an incident of Dalles business life
which be has accomodated to the
exigencies of the pending carrpaign
The true story is as follows: A
leading banker of this city recently
met a prominent professional man,
who has an overdraft at the bank,
and said, substantially: "If Bryan
is elected this fall the next day after
the fact is known you will find in
your postolllce box a notice stating
the amount of your overdraft and
a'request that you immediately moke
a deposit sufficient to cover it. We
shall send a similar notice to every
man who owes us a dollar. We
have, bad some experience with
Bryacism already and we don't pro
pose to take any chances." It only
remains for The Chronicle to say
that neither the banker nor his
customer are in any sense politicians.
Both of them, it is true, vote the
republican ticket, as all sensible
business men do, but they hive
never taken any active part in poli
tics ond are no more under the spell
of Marcus Ilunna than they are
under that of nny other sensible and
patriotic opponent ofthe party of re
pudiation nnd national dishonor.
There never was a man in this
country who received such a deluge
of foul democratic abuse as Abraham
Lincoln. From the moment be be
came a figure in national politics
until he was struck down by the
bullet of a democratic assassin he
heard from the democratic party
only the language of hatred, con
tempt and derision. He never an
nounced a purpose or a policy that
the democratic party did not antag
onize with a ribaldry of epithet
never equaled before or since. The
democratic press habitually referred
to him as an "ape," "gorilla," ''the
apostle of miscegenation," "violator
of the constitution","CaMar," "Nero,"
"ignoramus" and "imperialist." Lin
coin never beard from the democratic
party or its leaders during tho war a
single word not marked by bitter,
uncompromising enmity. These facts
are within the memory of millions
yet living. Bryanite apotheosis of
Lincoln is the old story of -'garnishing
the sepulchres of tbe prophets
whom your fathers have slain."
It takes unbounded impudence for
a democrat to attempt to play the
monitor with republicans in regard
to Lincoln. Tbe democratic leaders
and press never discovered an atom
of anything good in Lincoln while he
was alive, and their gabble now
about his views and policies, every
one of which they opposed and
showered with abuse, often expressed
with filthy license, excites only a
sense of disgust. The republicans
stood by Lincoln unflinchingly while
he was alive. They accepted and i
followed his leadership faithfully.
Thcv want no instructions from his
their talk of Lincoln. Their position
clearly is that a republican may be
praised if he died thirty-five years
Senator Stewart's return to the re
publican party makes it certain that
Nevada's electoral vote is lost to
Bryan. The republicans lacked only
a few votes of carrying the state in
1898.

For many yeara diphtheria has been
regarded at oue of the most fatal of
diseases. It is epidemic in large cities,
where hundreds of children die annu
all from it. It is endeucic, or occurs
in isoloated caiea at short intervals in
almost all cotumonitiea on the g.obe,
Tbe mortality resulting from it when in
malignant form, has been at high at
eighty per cent. In 1893 the death rate
in Philadelphia a at twenty seven daily
Daring thee epidemic! tbe death rate
U not confined to children, many adultt
heiog numbered among i'.s victims
Nurses and pbyticiant are specially lia
ble to contract the dnease. Should the
patients not die by suffocation, pneu
monia, heart failure or acute inflamma
tion of the kidneys it liable to follow
and terminate tbe sufferer's existence
The supreme effort of the physicians
has been to rescue humanity from this
fatal malady. By the untiring efforts
of such scientific investigators as Koch
and Loefel anti-diphtheritic serum, or
at it is called, anti-toxine, was disco v
ered. It dt produced by injecting on
der tbe skin of healthy young horses
the product of diphtheria, very much
attenuated, and at first administered in
very small doses, which causes tbe
horset to have a fever and makes them
sick. The hypodermic injections are
repeated at short intervale nntil the
animal ceases to respond to the injec
lions; that is to say, ceases to have
fever or become sick. Tbe horse is then
regarded as Incapable of having dip!)
theria and is said to he immune. Tho
blood is then withdrawn from this im
mune horse, and from this blood the
anti-toxine is made The anti-toxine is
t.'ien carefully tested as to its potency
by injecting small quantities into guinea
pigs and noting the effect produced
The result of this test indicates the po
tency, which is marked on each quan
tity of antitoxine at the time it is man-uftu-tured.
It is then hermetically
sealed in small ulnss tubes, each of
which represents but one dose of from
500 to SQOO units. Theee tubes muat he
stored in cool rooms, for antitoxine is
perishable and readily loses its potency
by heat and age, It is only adminis
tered hypodermically, and it seluoru re
quires more than two hypodermic injec
tions to cure a Bimple case of diphtheria,
if given at the beginning of the disease.
The proper and early use of antitoxine
has reduced the mortality from forty
four per cent to ten and a half per cent,
and has prevented those exposed to
diphtheria from developing the disease
when they are injected with tho serum
soon after being exposed.
AugnBt the 17th, Instant, the two
younger children of George Burin, of
this city, developed diphtheria. The
nature of the malady, however, was not
suspected until the 20th, when Dr. Gei
eendorffer was called and promptly pro
no ii need it diphtheria. City Marshal
Driver at once established a rigid quar
antine. The attending physician in
jected antitoxine and repented the dose
August 22ml and 23rd. The children
were very sick and the doctor, as well
as their parents, dispaired of their re
cevery ; hut a marked improvement
took place soon after the treatment,
which Iihh happily continued. The two
elder children developed diphtheria
Auguat 25th. They were promptly in-
j'cted with antitoxine, and the result
was that the attack was to mild that
they could with difficulty he kept in bed.
The remaining two children of the fain
i'y, who had not been attacked, were
each given 1000 units of anlltoxine in
order to prevent them from contracting
the disease. The only symptoms they
exhibited was a slighthoarseness, which
did not attract the attention of the chil
dren, for they pursued their usual work
and play. At this time all are conval
escent. .
A rigid quarantine is the only re
minder of the fear all people have of
this disease and of the possible fate from
which they have escaped. A thiity-
davs quarantine and a thorough disin
fection cf the premises will render The
Dalles safe from any spread of the
disease, nor should people have the fear
of diphtheria now since antitoxine is
employed to control it.
Y e congratulate Mr. Biinn and Limilv
on their happy eecape from so danger
ous a malady.

S. J. LiFrance and family left yester
day for Portland, where tbey have taken
no their residence at 607, Sixth street.
Mr. LaFrance goes to Portland to secure

A blight has damaged tbe tomato crop
at Hood River this summer, and this
favorite fruit is a scarce article. The
fruit canneries consequently are unable
to fill orders for this product. The
White Salmon crop is affected in the
tame manner, but A. R. Byrketl's
ranch escaped the blight and his crop
this year is a big one.
The construction gang of the O. R. &

men came with the contractor from

Bert Rand, accompanied by M. L.

preceded them with a party of four
from Portland. In coming down the
mountain tbe guide wanted Bert and

he would charge them only $1.25 apiece.
But the boys refused his assistance and
didn't pay a cent.
A Plea lor the Game Laws.
In our last issue, says the Scientific
American, we mentioned the convention
which was recently signed in London
for the p-ieeervation of wild animals,
birds and fish in Africa. It is gratifying
to note that America has not been back
ward in the movement, which may be
called international, to protect animals
of certain species from wanton destruc
tion. The protection of birds
is a national not a local question; it
deals largely with migratory species
which breed in one section, winter in
another, and traverse several (tales in
passing to and from breeding grounds.
Thp T.fnailA nf A norinait Kuni la.
men wat organized for the purpose of
creating in every state and territory a
well-organized standing army of game
protectors, which shall secure the enact
ment of more stringent general laws,
which shall see that lawlessness is
punished, which shall discourage game
slaughter, and protect the w ild creatures
that still remain. At present the leaune
has working divisions in twenty-four
states, and two provinces in Canada,
the membership including the governors
of several states, members of congress,
presidents of colleges, judges, etc. The
league has been very prominent in
e-curing the passage of the Lacy bill,
which is considered to be the greatest
viclory ever achieved in the interest of
game and seng bird protection.
The League of American Sportsmen
does not wish to curb sport in any way.
It believes in a reasonable filled game
bag, but considert that the killing of
game and taking or fish should be
limited by law, not only as to teason,
but that the hag for one man for a dav
and for a teason should be defined by
law.
Ihe league has rendered sufficient
service in asre'laining the fact that
seven of the hotels in New York, and
several game dealers, had been selling
game in closed season, and has secured
from them written plednes to stop
violating the game laws. It hat also
absolutely stopped the selling of game
in New York at all times except in open
season. The people of the country nre
hecoming atisfid that tome organised
measures must be taken to preserve the
feathered tribes which inhabit
woods from thn wicked and iunorant
slaughter which bids fair to render some
varieties of our birds extinct species.
