TSi Pal Issue Is the Preservation of
National Financial Honor and Not
Whether A.ulnaldo Shall
Succeed.
(By Hon.
Oeorge I IToar,
United
Slatea Senator.)
I am asked to etate briefly why I think
anti-imperinlisU should vote for Presi
dent McKinley thin fall. There li In my
Judgment such thing as Imperlaliam,
and such a thing as anti imperialism. The
imperialist Kjya the I'hilippino Island
are ours. The anti-Imperialists say the
Philippine Ulai.ds belong to the
Philippine people. The imperialist!
aay we will establish for them the
Best government we think they are fit
for. The anti-imperialists any they hare
a right to establish for themselves such
a government aa they think good and fit
for themselves.
Now. President McKinley made the
treaty, and Sir. Bryan, when Its defeat
was assured, rame to Washington and
saved it. These two great political lead
ers, between whom you are to take your
ehoice, are equally responsible for every
thing that bus happened so far. When
the treaty beeame the law of the land,
the public faith was pledged. to pay $20,
)IK),OIO for sovereignty over the Philip
pine Islands, and that Congress, and not
the people, should dispose of them here
after. It bernine the constitutional duty
f the President, until Congress should
act, or dcilare otherwise, to reduce them
to order nnd submission. The Supreme
Court of the United States so held long
ago. The only difference up to this point
between President McKinley and Mr.
Bryan is that President McKinley be
lieved he was doing right, belonged to a
party which had alwoys been, as he him
self had been, the champion of political
liberty, in the past, and is right on all
ef the other questions that are at stake
lu the coming election, and is fit to be
trusted with all new questions that shall
arise. On the other hand, Mr. Bryan
thought the whole transaction wrung,
make Nome thin and frivolous excuses
for bis conduct, and the party with whom
lie acts; uud the men who surround him J
nd will surround him aa his counselors
are men who have been the opponents of
righteousness, equality and civil liberty
always in the past, are wrong on all the
. other great questions that are at stake In
the present election, and are not. In my
Judgment, to be trusted with new ques
tions, however Important or vital, that
are to come up in the future.
In the matter of imperialism there haa
been little practical difference between
President McKinley and Mr. Bryan in
the past. There will be little practical
difference in the future. Mr. Bryan does
ot even promise to use his power as ex
ecutive and commander-ln-rhlef In call
ing our troops from the Philippines. lie
only promises to call Congress together.
He knows very well he cannot command
even the atreuxth of hla own party to
undo the mischief which seventeen of his
wn followers in the Senate, at his own
Instance, wrought-when they ratified the
treaty Messrs: HcKnery, McLaurin,
Morgan. Pettus, Sullivan. Allen, Hut lor,
Harris, Teller,' Kyle and Jones (of Ne-
rada) hare not changed- their minds.
Possibly Mr. Way of Georgia and Mr.
Kenney of Delaware among hia associ
ates have done so. It Is hopeless, even
If the Democrats get a tie, or even a ma
jority In the Senate, to expect them to
accomplish anything In behalf of the In
dependence of the Philippine Islands.
In 18!HJ yoa regarded Mr. Dryaa'a can
palgn as a "passionate crusade of dis
honor." Von said Its success would bring
with It not only adversity, but disgrace,
W ould Its succesa not bring disgrace
now? Mr. Bryan said at Topeka that If
Be were elected the free coinage of ailver
should be accomplished before another
presidential election. , Secretary Gage
aays he ran lawfully accomplish It by
executive power alone. Whether Mr.
Gage Is right In his construction of the
I lowers of the President under existing
sw, I will not undertake to say. But I
will undertake to aay that Mr. Bryan
will not hesitate to use that power If ha
las the great authority of Mr. Gage for
Its lawfulness. I do not believe the man
who promoted the ratification of the
Spanish treaty means business In this
matter of the Philippine Islands. But I
do believe be means business in the mat
ter of the free coinage of ailver, In the
matter of free trade, and In hia purpose
to reconstruct the Supreme Court He

Opinion ct a Leading New York Jurist
Vb.oe Election lo the Supreme
Bench Was Beaten by
D. B. hill.
(By Judge William U. Hornblower of
New York.)
Judge William B. Hornblower of New
York, who was nominated to the Su
preme bench of the United States by
President Cleveland, and whose confirm
ation was beaten in the Senate for pure
ly personal causes by David B. IWA, has
made the following statement why he, a
Democrat, cannot support Bryan:
I have been repeatedly asked during
the past few weeks what, In my Judg
ment, la the duty of a Gold Democrat
who la also an Auti-Imperiulist, in the
pending presidential campaign. The
question is by uc means a simple Jnc,
and I can well understand and appreciate
the position taken by such men as Mr.
Schurs, Mr. Sbcpard and Mr. Olney.
for my owu part, however, I cannot see
my way clear to reaching their conclu
sions. The same reasona which compell
ed me to oppose Mr. Bryau In 1800 com
pel me to oppose him lu the present cam
paign. All the heresies, financial and
Popullstic, which were embodied in the
un-Democratlc, crazy-quilt platform of
180(1 are readopted without any attempt
at modification or mollification by the
Kansas City platform. The 10 to 1 plank
is expressly reaffirmed and redeclared,
and this at the instance of Mr. Bryan
himself. I cannot support a candidate
who still adheres to a proposition which,
to my mind, is a monstrosity and which,
if carried into effect, wouldin my judg
ment produce untold disaster to all
classes of the community and bring dis
honor aud humiliation to our nation. The
fact, if it be a fact, that recent legisla
tlon has made It difficult for Mr. Bryan
to carry into practice hia avowed princi
pies docs not, it seems to be, make it
any the more right to vote for a man
who still maintains these principles. It
is quite within the possibilities that dur
ing his administration, If he should be
elected, a complete change might be ef
fected In the political composition of both
houses of Congress, and the verdict of
the people expressed at the polls In fnvor
of Mr. Brynn'a election aa President
might be carried Into effect. It will cer
'aiuiy be Mr. Bryan's duty, according to
Ills expressed declaration, to do what in
Mm lies to bring about this result.
It is uot to be forgotten that Mr. Itryan
Is not only the candidate of what is left
of the Democratic party, but he Is the
candidate also of the Populist party, and
haa accepted the nomination on their plat
form. The radical notions of the Popu
lists, If ever carried into effect In this
country, would reduce popular govern
ment to a position where we should be
the laughing stock of the nations, and
would produce a reaction In the minds of
the voters which would carry us far in
the direction of domestic imperialism,
which I suppose will be conceded to be
of vastly more moment to us and to our
posterity than colonial Imperialism. In
deed, the chief objection to colonial In
periallsm is its probable effect upon our
domestic Institutions, and its tendency to
wards enlarging the powers of the execu
tive as between the executive and the
legislative departments of the govern
ment, and towards increasing the pow
era of the Federal government as be
tween Itself and the Statea.
The queatlon aa to what la the "para'
mount Issue" In this campaign la one on
which men may honestly differ. -Ft seems
to me, however, that the most Important
Issue before us at the present moment is
whether our domestic affairs are to be
thrown Into confusion and exposed to dis
aster. The rights and wrongs of our co
lonial possessions must In this emergency
be aubordlnated to the rights and wrongs
of our own affair.
Furthermore, I am by no mean satis
fled that Mr. Bryan would be a safe per
son to whom to Intrust the Imperialistic
questions which will confront us in the
future. In my Judgment be onght to
hare made his fight at the time when the
treaty with Spain was before the Sen
ate. He should have upheld the hands
of such dissenting Republican aa Sena
tor Hosr, and he should bare opposed to
the bitter end the principle of buying for
eign people without their consent and In
the midst of a war for Independence on
their part By supporting the treaty Mr.
Bryan made himself a party to Ita com
pact, and la, more than any ether one
man, except Mr. McKinley, responsible
for the itnatlon. The treaty was rati
fied, the purchaae money waa paid, the
Islands are In our possession. In my
judgment, the question of their future
and of onr future, as determined Indi
rectly by their future, must wait until we
have settled the question of the present,
and that question i whether honesty, In
tegrity and common sens shall be ap
plied to the financial affairs of the United
State, or whether popular approval ahall
be given to the vagaries, whims, a-.d fal
lacies of the Populist and Bryanitea,
with all the resulting diaaater and dis
honor. WILLIAM B. HORNBLOWER.

"What 1 denounce la Protective

lam Jennlng Dryam la m apeech In
the Hoaae of Representative, 194,
advocating; the pvaaaareof the Wlleon
O or ma, a Free Trade Tariff Law.
Acknowledged and Understood by South
era Businesa Men and Planter,
Whose Sympathies Are with
Republicanism.
(By non. N. B. Scott, United States
Senator, of West Virginia.)
The South ia the citadel of Democracy
in this country; it has also always been
the citadel of free trade. Twenty-five
years ago a protectionist Southerner was
almost aa rare as a white blackbird. The
overthrow of the old Whig party bad
practically eradicated that element of po
litical society in that section.
But since then a great change has been
gradually going on. The growth of pro
tectionist sentiment in the South during
the last quarter century is one of the
most importaut developments of recent
political history.
It Is a fact susceptible of ample proof
that whenever we hare had a protective
tariff the whole country. North and
South, has prospered, and whenever we
have had a low tariff, or practically free
trade, the country has suffered from hard
times.
In every branch of productive Indus
try that can be named there has been
" It 5ort o Looks as
increased activity and increased profit
during McKlnley's administration as
compared with the previoua low tariff of
Cleveland's admlniatration. In these
benefits the South has fully participated
and shared equally with the North. All
this progress, Improvement and profit Is
due mainly to the Republican protective
tariff, operating according to the fixed
gold atandard.
The change of opinion among the
Southern business men In regard to the
principle of the tariff and other funda
mental businesa principles during the
present campaign has been wonderful; In
fact, quite revolutionary.
I'n West Virginia the feeling In favor
of protection la very strong; in fact, the
inhabitant realize that the Republican
tariff on coal and Iron ha been the mak
ing of the State. The farmer of the
State also appreciate the rise In pricea
of farm products, which they see is due
not so much to bountiful, crop a to a
good market for those crops. The re
cent tremendous Increase In the foreign
demand for American coal I also appre
ciated at Its full value "by the Weat Vir
ginia people, and they are fully aware
that it ha been rendered possible by the
protection afforded te borne product by
the Dingley tariff.
The banking bouse of Hambleton A
Co. of Baltimore, all of the menibera of
which are prominent Democrats, bar
com out with a circular to tbelr cllenta
and correspondents all over the South,
In which they advocate the defeat of Bry
an and the re-election of McKinley, on
account of the great beneflta to the South
which have accrued from the working
ef the Republican financial and commer
cial policy during the last four yeara.
In brief, ae aectlen of the country ha
had a larger ahare of the general pros
perity during the present administration
than the South, and It has been due main
ly to the operation of the Republican tar
iff and currency laws, a the Southern
business men now understand and ac
knowledge. Never before In the history
ef the United State ha the output of
the Southern iron ore and pig-iron, lum
ber, coal and coke, been ao large a It ha
been la the pat two year; and not for
year. If ever, have the pricea been ae
high. Never before wn ao Isrg a pro
portion of Southern products shipped
from Southern port. Never before ha
money tosned there st inch low Interest.
AU this haa occurred under the gold
standard and the protective tariff. A few
years sgo the South had practically no
mnnnfactMree; It has now over 11,000,.
000.000 Invested In factories, paying over
$350,000,000 In wage, and producing be
tween $1,500,000,000 and 12,000,000,000
product yearly. Moat of this Increase
has beea secured ander the present ad
ministration, and 1 directly due to the
operation ef the Repnbllcaa policies.

Mast Seek Market Dehere and Cre
ate Ntw Openings for Our Goods-
Expan ion Natural in
Nailon'a Life.
By John C. Earaes, of the n. B. Claflin
. Co., of New York.)
How any man at all interested In the
advancement and welfare of this great
country can preach the doctrine of anti
expanston is more than I can understand.
Anti-expansion means contraction, or
at least that would be the result. Unless
we seek markets for our goods outside of
the limits of our own country we cannot
advance commercially. We are a coun
try of producer. Not only do we draw
from nature' bountiful supplies of the
ground, but, by using the. ingenuity
Providence has given us, we have demon
strated that we can by modern machin
ery turn out more manufactured goods
than we can use. Therefore we must not
only seek markets elsewhere, but we
must create new markets for our produc
tions. To do this our country must have
at least a foothold in other countries,
commercially at least.
'A
It I'd Have to Expand."
Our occupancy of Cuba and Porto Rico
ha assured us of the greater part ot the
trade with those Islands. The Influence
for good hae not stopped there, but it
has extended to all the Spanish-speaking
countriea of America. Inqulrlea from
these countries for American good .and
manufactures are becoming more numer
ous every day.
I wish to say right here from my own
knowledge of the businesa men In Cuba,
and from what they have said to me per
sonally, that I am sure that their confi
dence in us alone was what made them
continue business on the Islands and feel
that there waa a future for them. With
out an exception the business men from
Havana and other cities in Cuba have
stated frankly to me that if the United
State should withdraw entirely from
Cuba they themselves would fee obliged
to go out of business; that all business
confidence would be shaken.
Speaking especially of fabric manu
factured from cotton, think how Impor
tant it i that we find new markets for
our cotton goods. Of the nine to twelve
million of bale of raw cotton produced
in this country two-third of It I ex
ported and made up Into cotton clotha
abroad. The exportation of the raw ma
terial In Itself Is an Immense factor In
our foreign trade and commerce, but how
much better It wonld be, Instead of aend-
lng two-thirds of the raw cotton abroad
and usjng one-third In manufacturing
goous in tnia country, to export ene-third
and use two-thirds here, exporting the
nnisneu proauct, thereby doubling the
number of our mills and factories and
giving employment to twice the number
of operatives.
It Is not probable that we win ever
gain very much of a foothold on Chlneae
shores, for It does not seem to be the de
sir of the people of this country at large
that we should expand to that extent
But we have the Philippine Islands, prae
tlcally forced upon n by circumstances,
which In the near future will prove to
be one of the most valuable territorial
acquisitions that we have made since the
original thirteen State were organized.
Not only can we. In time, anpply the
even or eight million Inhabitant of
those Islsnds with practically everything
that they do not raise or manufacture
themselves, but we can tiae the Tslanda
as a atepplng-stone to Asiatic countries
The majority of the large Hongkong and
Shanghai bousea already have branches
In Msnila, as well as representatives In
New York; this will complete the chain
of commercial intercourse between this
country and China.
What we need to expand onr trade and
commerce with other countriee la a broad
and liberal policy by thla government
such as the present administration has
adopted.

Senator Warren Tells Why the West
Will Return Good Majorities for
McKinley and Rooitvt.lt
This Year.
fRv Hon. Francl E. Warren, United
States Senator.)
The people of Wyoming are vitally and
intensely Interested in the outcome of the
present campaign. Wyoming haa been a
State but a little over eight yeara, and
of thia period four yeara each of Demo
cratic and Republican government have
served to Impress upon the minds of Its
people two distinct and Impressive ob
ject lessons. The first period waa dur
ing the Democratic administration from
18U3 to 18'Jti nclusive. in which we suf
fered so severely in business matters and
when our material conditions were con
fessedly so devoid of hope that as we
look buck it all seems like a hideous
nightmare. -
' The second period of four years Is that
formed by the McKinley administration.
At the outset of it we were awakened
to life and hope. During this tftne our
industries, depressed aud unprofitable
under Democratic policies, have become
prosperous, .and our business ventures
remunerative and satisfactory.. The
ranches, farms, cattle, sheep, mines and
railroads of our State oil give substantial
returns to the capital and labor expend
ed upon them, and our people, instead of
being constant borrowers, are now pay
ing their debts and becoming lenders.
Bryan's scare beads "Expansion, Im
perialism and Militarism" are not an
issue of the campaign In Wyoming. This
State is the product of expansion. Every
foot of Its area of 97,000 sqrare miles
was formed from territory acquired by
acts of expansion such as the Louisiana
purchase, the seizure of the Oregon coun
try, the Mexican treaty, and the Cali
fornia purchase, and all this without the
consent of the governed.
One of our Wyoming volunteers who.
when the war broke out, was a leading
Democratic politician of the State, who
went to the Philippines as a private and
through merit won a commission, recent
ly wrote home as follows:
"I would like to be home so that I
could rote against Bryan. I hope be
will be defeated so badly that the buga
boo word Imperialism will never be
heard again."
The chief Industries in Wyoming are
live stock raising, farming, coal mining
and railroad operation. Sheep, cattle
and horse raising form the greatest in
dustry of the State. During the four
years of Democratic administration, and
under the direct operations of the Wil
son tariff law, the condition of the sheep
and wool Industry in Wyoming waa ap
palling. Sheep brought less than one
dollar a bead; wool sold for five cents
and sometime less per pound, and mut
ton shipments would acarcely realize the
railroad freight to market. During that
four years the highest annual assessed
valuation of all the sheep In the State
was $1,808,000.
But with the McKinley administration
and the Dingley tariff of 181)7 sheep,
which could scarcely find a purchaser at
a dollar a head, now sell for four dollars.
Wool now brings from fourteen to seven
teen cents. Mutton now sells for from
'four to six cents a pound on foot. And
the assessed valuation ot aheep In Wy
oming ia now $..,4211,403. a gain In four
years of over 800 per ceut.
The contrast between the cattle In
dustry under Democratic and Republi
can cdminiatration is almost start
ling. From 1803 to 1897 depression and
ruin was the rule. But, In the aheep
business, the election of McKinley and
inauguration of Republican policies
wrought a marvelous change. Mixed
herds of cattle for the past three year
have eold for thirty to thirty-five dollars
a neaa; calvea bring fifteen to twenty
dollars a head, and ateera now net the
cattle raiser from forty-five to flftv-fiv
dollar each. The assessed valuation of
cattle In the Rtate now amonnta to $8,
154,000 and la rpldly Increasing.
Under the past four veare of Repub
licanism, Wyoming haa grown to be an
Important factor among the coal-producing
State. During the four year of
Democratic rule, with the aame number
or minea at present, the annual pro
duction waa 2,4:19,311 ton as arsln.r
4,500,000 tons per annum during the
pst two years of the McKinley adminis
tration. The Increase In production
meana more miner, more day worked,
better pay.
The most hopeful feature of W
Ing'a businesa condition Is to be found In
the fsct that Ita local banka now carry
the credita of Ita businesa nennU Th
deposits of Wyoming banks have Increas
ed four-fold In the past four yeara and
the number of depositor baa Increaaed
five-fold. Western banks are now as In
dependent of the East as the East I of
Europe, and It will be difficult, I think,
for Mr. Bryan to convince our people
that this comfortable atate of affairs Is
not due directly to the wise and patriotic
policy of the Republican party.
In mm, when four rears of 1nr..i.
and disaster had almost driven our people
to despair, Bryan carried the State by
about 2.V) plurality. Now If the people
will (pare time from business, from the
ranch and from the mine te go to the
polla, this plurality will not only be lost
to Mr. Rrysn. but the MMfi.,1.. j

A Return to the Old System of Hlfh
Freights, Hifh Fares and Jerk,
water Railroads Is an ln
possibility.
(By William II. Baldwin, Jr Preside,
of the Long Island Railroad.)
To appreciate the aigniftcance of the
value of railroad consolidation to the pub
lic, it is only necessary to attempt tt
conceive of a return to former conditions.
The small independent railroads, witt
their relatively smull number of em
ployes, each road with ita own standsnli
of equipment dependent upon the idioayt
crasies of its principal officers or dhre
tors; each road with responsibilities tt
the public as a carrier only to the extent
of its own short line all these liuiitt
tious suggest a local independence whlck
would permit to the railroad the employ
ment of labor on the basis of "supply
for its small demands.
On the other band, the gradual growls
of large eystems composed of many such
small lines produces a new and constant
ly growing responsibility to the public,
until finally a point is reached where th
law of supply and demand affects but
remotely the skilled labor necessary it
transportation service. The function per
formed by railroads has become too im
portant to the body politic to permit of
any solution of these fcerious labor and
wage questions, except by intelligent con
sideration on the part of the representa
tives both of the management and of tin
employes.
The effect of consolidation has brought
many good results to the employes: Ai
increased ability on the part of the rail
roads to pay higher wages; to employ
more men; an improvement in standards
of tracks and equipment, which has re
duced the hours for s day's work ni
has made the service less dangerous. It
has also made the employment of ran
in the aervice more regular throughout
the year and thus kept together a regular
force, and has developed a code of stand
ard rules, governing the army of em
ployes, which have dignified their em
ployment and made more permanent their
positions.
The saving by consolidation is due t
the ability to develop business econom
ically.
Conversely, the business of any trunk
line to-day could not be handled by I
series of independent lines with varying
standards, at the present rates which art
profitable to the larger lines. With tht
Improved efficiency and economy of trans
portation, ratea have constantly declined
and t rattle haa been continually derclep
ed. , With Increased deu-dty of traffle,
the number of employes has been increaa
ed In proportion uud has been paid S
higher wage. The Improved facilities
and higher speed of trsins have made the
day's work for a trainman, not one hus
