MARK HA.XXA.
pcnking of tbe renewed abuse of
Seuator Hanna, J. T. Atterhclt, of
Connecticut, said : "Tbey Hied that
four years ago without success, and
it'seems almost incredible that they
should repeat the mistake. If it
wouldu't win then, it has'nt a ghost
of a show now. In 189G Hanna was
a new proposition to the vast ma
jority of voters, and some of tbe
stories they told about bim were
really terrifying. But during the
past four years tbe country has had
a pretty good chance to become
acquainted wiib tbe chairman of the
republican national committee, and
the people find much in bim to
admire. Hanna is not a statesman
Even bis warmest admirers do not
credit bim wiib being that, but
those ho know bim well know bim
to be a brave and honest man, with
marvelous executive ability. His
honesty sometimes gets him Into
trouble. He thinks a thing, and says
it, without stopping to figure out
what the effect will be. If a certain
thing is so, Hanna cannot see the
reason why all the world should not
know it. In this be is far more
honest than many men who pose as
paragons of political virtue. He is
entirely without frills or ornaments,
but is possessed of many homely
Virtues."
Col. O. C. Sabin, who organized
the Silver Knights of Ametica in
1890, and edited their organ, has
deserted Bryanisua and come out for
McKinley and Roosevelt. He said
of the present campaign: "As to
this cry of imperialism, that is all
balderdash. Anybody who knows
history knows that the republican
party has ever been in favof of those
politics which have a tendency to
upbuild the country. The only
question upon which I have ever
differed with tho republicans wa3 the
question of mooey, and I am satisfied
that the results proved that the
leaders of that party are right, and
we who went for silver are wrong.
lit is a source of gratification and joy
to me that thousands of old silver
men are now coming out in favor of
the republican party, and tbe stand
ard of money which that party has
established."
Henry Labouchere, the Cockney
editor of London truth, is out for
Bryan. That is to say, Labouchere
says be would vote for Bryan if be
bad a chance, and '-Labbie" voices
British sentiment about as well as
anybody. But where does that
"British Alliance" come In, The
Chronicle would like to know?
la bis letter of acceptance eight
years ago, Adlai Stevenson wrote:
"To the plain and unequivocal dec
laration ot the convention in favor
of sound, honest money, I subscribe
without reservation or qualification."
Mr. Stevenson will doubtless explain
that his paramount issues are apt to
get inverted.
Our esteemed Bryanite contempor
aries are not remarkably exlatic over
the returns from the Vermont elec
tion. Tbe republican vote was up
to tbe high water mark of 1898, and
that was high for anybody, while
the democratic vote fell short of the
vote of that year about 2,500.
It is estimated that nt tbe present
time the United States produces 2o
per cent of the world's wheat, CO per

its corn. And, comparatively speak
ing, the country is just getting
started.

BRYAS AND V ALLAH blGU AH.
Mr. Bryan must have been giving
bis days and night to study of
Clement L. Vallandigbam s works,
says the Inter-Ocean. That notor
ious copperhead's thoughts are echoed
in all Mr. Bryan's recent speeches.
This similarity of thought is natural,
for Mr. Bryan now, like allandig
ham in 1863, advocates surrender to
rebels.
Vallundigbam's most violent and
treasonable speecW was delivered
May 1, 18C3, at Mount Veinon,
Ohio. He began by proclaiming bis
"light to criticise the acts of our
military servants." He cited as a
precedent for such criticism tbe fact
that "Tom Corwin, in the face of
congress, hoped our volunteers in
Mexico might be 'welcomed with
bloody hands to hospitable graves.'
Mr. Bryan in his speech of acceptance
on A'.g. 8, 1900, at Indiacapolis,
began by proclaiming the same right
of criticism and also alleged Mexican
war precedents. Vallandigbam spoke
of tbe suppression of the secession
revolt as "a wicked and unnecessary
war a war for the crushing out of
liberty." He declared the republican
administration did not wish to end
the war. If it had it "could have
saved the 20.000 lives lost at If red.
ericksburg." In the same vein Mr
Bryan spoke of the suppression of
the I'agal revolts as "a war of con
quest, as unwise as it is unrighteous,"
for which "there was never any
occasion." He likewise intimated
that the administration did not wish
to end the war. "The republican
party," he said, "is responsible today
for every drop of olood drawn in
the Philippines."
Vallandigham feared the war for
tbe union would result in the over
throw of the republic. "The men in
power," he said," "are attempting to
establish a despotism." He frequent
ly recurred to this idea. "If those
in authority ore allowed to accom
plish their purposes." he said in the
same speech, "the people will be de
prived of their liberties and a mon
archy will be established."
Mr. Bryan likewise feared that
enforcing American laws on Ameri
can soil would result in the public's
overthrow. He said the president
had already established a despotism.
"The will of the president," he said,
"has been the only law in the Philip
pines'." He implored bis hearers to
"consider the effect of imperialism
upon our own nation." He declared
that "even now we are beginning to
see tbe paralyzing influence of im
perialism." lie frequently expressed
his dread of, a monarchy. He as
serted the republican party has
uccepted the European idea and
"planted itself upon the ground
taken by George III."
Of course Mr. Bryan's statements
now are as false, bis fears now are as
baseless, his predictions now are as
unwarranted, as were Vallandigham's
statements, fears and predictions in
18G3. The republican party estab
lished no monarchy then and docs
not even dream of establishing one
now. William McKinley is doing
bow just what Abraham Lie coin was
doing then compelling rebels to
obey the laws of the United States.
On the other hand Mr. Bryan and
his parly are now encouraging rebels,
just as Vallandigham and bis party
did then. That Mr. Bryan should
now use Vallandigham's arguments
against enforcing the laws of the
United States is altogether natural.
The excuses and arguments for se
cession and rebellion are always the
same.
The Youths' Companion, a thor
oughly impartial witness, says: Con
ditions in Porto Rico have greatly
Improved since the American occu
pation of Porto Hico. An efficient
telegraphic system has been estab
lished, and roads are in process of
construction which will make all
parts of tbe island easily accessible.
The judiciary has been reformed;
schools have been reorganized and
improved; an efficient police force
has put down brigandage once the
curse of the island and rendered
life and property generally secure.
Improved sanitation has had tsaiked
effects in promoting public health,
and under tbe new order of things it
is safe to assume that, as time passes,
the island will enjoy a prosperity
hitherto unknown in its history.
THE DALLES WEEKLY CHRONICLE. WEDNESDAY. SEPTEMBER 12, 1900.
TRUE AS HOLY WRIT.
The declaration of independence
belongs to no self-constituted set of
men or political party. It is tbe
charter of human rights the com
mon heritage ot every man who
believes in human freedom, says
Colonel Emniett Callagban In the
Baker City Herald.
Tbe republican party can well
resent tbe demagogic assumption of
the demo-pops, that they hold a
special guardianthip over our charter
of human liberty. Tbe republican
party can with pardonable pr'.dc
point to the thousands of limbless
men, living and dead, who fought
upon a hundred battlefields that tbe
declaration of independence might
live, when assailed by millions of
men who swore that the sentiments
contained in that declaration "that
all men were created free and equal"
was a He.
The people will learn that imper
ialism, as employed by the democrats,
means that tbey would have the
country shirk its duty, turn its back
on destiny, count all blood shed as
lost, furl the flag and withdraw its
protection from people who need it
today more than ever before in all
their history. The charge of im
perialism", when properly translated,
means duty. And the party of
Lincoln, of Grant, of Harrison, and
of McKinley, is willing to be charged
with doing its duly, no matter how
hard that duty may be. Stripped of
all glamor, tbe democrats have en
tered upon a flag-furling campaign.
They condemn expansion, yet wel
come Hawaii, because its one vote
with tint of Oklahoma, in tbe demo
cratic convention, enabled them to
again attempt to overthrow tbe
stable currency of the country. They
decry "imperialism," yet shout them
selves hoarse over an Hawaiian
"prince." Tbey are welcome to all
the votes and glory they can make
out of such duplicity and treachery,
which will nauseate, but never de
ceive, the true Americsn people.
TLe British correspondents are
getting "sassy" because Uncle Sam
refused to go to John Bull for his
instructions in regard to China, re
marks the Astorian. "The British
foreign ofnee thought it was en
titled to rely on American support."
On what ground, pray? America is
not a British dependency nor is the
democratic bugaboo of a secret al
liance a reality. If tho Russian
policy appeals to the United States
as the one most worthy its adoption,
McKinley does not propose to be
bluffed out of it by the angry roars
of the British lion. The statement
that "tbe moncnt the United Slates
is asked to accept some amount of
responsibility it hastily effaces itself
and executes a hasty retreat" sounds
strangely from a British source, con
sidering that little Venezuela episode
and one or two other little happen
ings which might be mentioued.
The democratic party is consistent
in opposing tbe growth of the coun
try, for it is on record as favoring
the division of the country. It
urged the government to let tbe
South go, and declared the war a
failure, just as it is urging the gov
ernment to let the Philippines go and
declaring that the war out there is a
failure.
"If there is any one who believes
the gold standard is a good thing, or
that it must be maintained, I warn
him not to ca.t his vote for me, be
cause I promise bim it will not be
maintained in this country longer
than I am able to get rid of U."
From the speech of William Jennings
Bryan, delivered at Knoxvillc, Tcnn.,
Sept. 16, 1896.
"Show me a man who really be
lieves this country Is in danger of
imperialism and militarism," says
Mr. Dunsmorc, a former populist
leader in Kansas. It can't be done,
Mr. Dunsmore; it can't be done.
Bryan says it is, but he does not
brlievo it. '
