The ca lamities which ho has foretold would iiavo brought unlimited dlsnster to llie country If they had ever been realized. But they never came to pass. The liar "owing pictures which he painted were merely figments of his imagination, based on absolutely no foundation whatever. ' It is well to have Americans remem ber that prophecies uttered by the ora tor of the Platte must be discounted fully 100 per cent, for all signs indi cate that ho feels the fates once more ,ind Is about to begin prophesying cgaln. A male Cassandra, Mr. Bryan might bj this time have learned that tho forecast of evil will never be ho nored by those who have found that In tho past his vaticinations have bem but empty air. "Driving Country to Ruin.'' For Instance, when Mr. Bryan was a membor of the House of Representa tives In 1S92 ho was absolutely certain thnt protection was driving the coun try headlong to rack and ruin, and In his speech delivered March 10 of that yenr he drew the following agonizing pictures : "Protection has been our cannibal tree, and as one after another of our farmers has been driven by the force of circumstances upon that tree anil has been crushed within Its folds bis companions have stood around and shouted, 'Great Is protection !' Thus iu ovory State, so far as those statistics have been collected, the pro portion of homo owning farmers Is de creasing and that of tenant farmers increasing. This means but one thing. It means a land of landlords and ten nuts, and; backed by the history of every nation that has gone down, I say to you that no people can continue a free people under a freo government when the great majority of Its citizens are tenants of a small minority. Your system (protective tnrlfT) has driven tht farm owner from his land and substituted the farm tenant." How far this picture portrays the America of to-day or the America of any year since ho made that spoiicli pny American can answer. Even in Mr. Bryan's own State he can And an answer right at his doors, for tho farm lni. ds of Nebraska have doubled in value. "Murderous Gold Standard." Dm during the four years succeeding that speech Mr. Bryan's agitation grnv no less nor did tho demon which ho had raised in his own Imagination hide with diminished head, for In 18.1(1 he again saw destitution threatening tho country. Ho had a remedy for It, a panacea, a fetich which lie held up for worship free silver. Here are some of the things Mr. Bryan said would happen If the gold standard wore con tinued : "1 reply that If protection has slain Its thousands tho gold standard has slain Its tons of thousands." From speech nt Democratic National Conven tion, July, 1890. "Do not let the Republicans beguile yen about the future. The future Is written In blood crushed out of you by gold." From speech at Erie, Pa., Au gust, 1800. "Ah, my friends, there Is another reason why people have gone Into tho cities and left the farms. It Is bo cause your legislation has been caus ing tho foreclosure of mortgages upon the farms. Mark my words! If the gold standard goes on and peo ple continue to complain, tho gold stan dard advocates Instead of trying to Im prove the condition of tho people will bo recommending that you close your schools so that the people will not real ize how much they are suffering." Prom speech at Monmouth, 111., Octo ber, 189(1. But whom nns the gold standard slain? What future did It write In blood? What district schools did It close? Again tho condition of tho country makes a calm reply confuting the Impassioned orator. Campaigning again In 1000 Mr. Bry an decided that Imperialism was an other dauger to the country. If it were continued the Fourth of July would be forgotten by all Americans and the "spirit of '70" would become a thing of the past. Speaking at Lincoln, Mr. Bryan said: Sees Death of Patriotism. "Tho light this year will be to carry out tho sentlniout of that song we hare so olten repeated, 'My Couutry, 'TIs of Tlire.' If wo lose, our children and our children's children will not succeed to the Spirit of that song, and celebra tions of the Fourth of July will pass away, for the spirit of the empire will be upon us."

In n riiPimt Kiioelnl dlsiuiteh frrBwiifo Tribune Raymond said: "Practically speaking, the result of Tuesday's election Is more favorable to the Republicans than they hud -any right to exiect, because thero has been in determined campaign for the purposo of jinking a good showing In Vermont and few of the big guns of tho party have been put on tho stump there this year. 'Thero is, of course, a slight falling off In the vote of both Republicans and Democrats, as compared with four years ago, but this was entirely to bo expected, becnuso at that tlmo Roose velt was the nominee of his party for president, and the result In Vermont's ltnf Tic. ...nc mnrnltf n fnrftriltllin,.R .!.. ,M-Ul It.lO .!-. ...

I "If Vermont can bo taken as an In dex of the condition of public opinion throughout tho country, It means' that In the November elostlon, whatever strength tho Independence League de velops In tho other States will come almost exclusively from Bryan und not from Taft. "The Vermont Democrats, while few In number, nro extremely rockrlbbed In their sontliiionts. They mako a point of going to tho polls year after year and carry on a hopeless light merely bo causo they want to sot a good example to the DemixTats in other States. In 1S!H they repudiated llryan and tho froo silver heresy, mid they did it largely by staying at homo on election day. The result was a plurality of a Httlo over lO.OOO for McKlnloy, which has been a record in Vermont elections. In the State elections of 1900 and 190-1 the Democratic voto was practically stationary." u TAFT'S RELIGION.
