BRYAN'S CRAZY PLATFORM.
The platform so carefully prepared
by William Jennings Bryan and adopt
ed by the conventions he had meet at
Lincoln, Nebraska, on his 40th birth'
day, seems to please neither of the
opposing elements of the democratic
party. It Is rejected with contempt
bf all sound money democrats, and Is
severely and Justly criticised by the
cheap money democrats because of Its
Dolly Varden frills, invented to pre
sent the colors of the cameleon to
ad&bt It to every shade of public sent!
ment
. Do the democrats of this nation pro
pose to go Into a national contest for
president on .a platform that Is re
jected by every dally newspaper of re
putable position in Baltimore, New
York. Philadelphia and Boston? Not
one of the democratic or independent
Journals, which reflect the best con
victions of the nation, has a word of
approval for Bryan's Dolly Varden
platform. The New York World says
of if. "The Nebraska democratic plat'
form illustrates the versatility and the
perversity of Mr. Bryan's genius," and
even the New York Journal has been
silent on the platfrom because it is in
opposition -to the pronounced views of
that newspaper.
Beyond the Eastern cities there is
not a public Journal in Chicago, outside
of.the Altgeld political anarchists, that
can give a word of approval to the
Bryan pUtform, and It is rejected by
the Louisville Courier-Journal and oth
er leading democratic Journals of the
South. The South is rapidly coming
up to the standard of patriotic ex
pansion, and the rapid development
occasion Chief Justice Snodgrass gave
cheap money and agrarianism would
be her greatest foes.
Chief Justice Snodgrass, of Tennes
see, attended a banquet? at Chatta
nooga on the night of Bryan's 40th
anniversary, when he fashioned the
Dolly Varden platform for the demo
crats to acept and thus surrender dem
ocratic Identity. In his speech on that
ocacfion Chief Justice Snodgrass gave
the following manly interpretation of
democratic aims and purposes.
The retention of the Philippine isl
ands Is practically settled. There will
never be an Issue about it. There Is
no doubt of our retaining them.
To succeed we must present living,
aggressive Issues, not dead negatives
of objection.
We One democracy) have gone be
fore the people biennially and preach
ed relkf by profession in favor of
tinkering with the tariff and amending
the Ten Commandments.
Let us offer them something broad
and hopeful, ths addition of great ter
ritory, , the freedom of a great body
of people, the extension of our trade
and the up-building of all business.
Let us go before them to show that
we will soon cause evry fragrant
breezs that blows over these distant
islands of the Pacific to be laden with
the hum of American industries, the
music of American civilization and the
shouts of American freedom.
Let us teach the world a new les
son in national enlargement, prosper
ity and power for the advancement of
human llverty.
Could there be any better epitome of
the principles and policies of the re
publican party than these utterances
of Judge Snodgrass? Of course the
democratic party will never stand for
these things, and Judge Snodgrass has,
in effect, advised his party associates
to support the republican ticket in
the approaching campaign.
STRAWS IN COLORADO.
The significant news comet from
Denver that Isaac M. Stevens, vice
m!iitan of the national silver com
mittee In 1896, has renounced Bryan
and returned to the republican party,
and that he took this wise step at a
meeting which was presided over by J.
U. Wheeler of Aspen, the ''king of I
silver mines, who u once an en
thusiastic Itryanlte.
We ay the news la significant with
out wishing to intimate that the polit
ical gyrations of Mr. Stevens and King
Wheeler will cause an emotional cata
clysm. The country at large knoa
little of these gentlemen, and will re
gard them with a dry intellectual In
terest as whirling straws, not as senti
mental prodigals.
Savin their dignity, they simply
show which way the wind blows, and It
h.-vs evidently started toward the right
direction In Colorado after many a con'
trary tit. Moreover, the silver com
mitteeman and the silver king are not
flying alone The air is full of straw
which which has been picked up by the
generous and healthful gale from the
rickety stacks of populism.
Metaphor aside, the state is natur
ally pledging Itself anew to republican.
Ism. For the last three years It has
been enjoying perhaps mote than Its
fair share of the country"! prosperity.
There is, an urgent demand for labor,
wages are high, the fundamental In
dustries of the state are nourishing
and trade is active. Every day the
Coloradan arises to a great object lee-
son. He is rettins wnat tne eiierman
law cuM not U him. He rees every
prediction of th Bryan democracy by
which h? was led aMrav falsified and
unfulfilled. He knows now that if the
prophets were not contemptuous of the
truth they were lacking In the upper
stcry, and he can never trust again
to the Infallibility of their Judgment
or even to the wisdom of their cpl
ions.
In these circumstances the humb
lest laborer in field, mine or shop need
not look for guidance to the variable
and unstable Stevens or the royal
Wheeler. He Is the proselyte of fac
like those great leaders themselves.
NEED OR BIO WAR VESSELS.
When we are Informed that the house
committee on naval affairs is to rec
ommend appropriations of $62,000,000,
and that this sum is so largely in ex
cess of the precedents that the near
est approach to it was In 1S92, when
$44,000,000 was appropriated, ve are apt
to ask if the new navy has not sudden
ly become a most expensive luxury.
But a little reflection will nhow that
the expenditures which are suggested
are imperative If we wish to rank with
first-class naval powers.
The estimates includes $12,000,000 for
two battleships of 13.500 tons each, $18,-
000.000 for three armored cruisers of
13,000,01 tons each, and $13,500,000 for
three protected cruisers of 8.000 tons
each. Here is the bulk of the appro
iatlon, and it is Just in these large
and costly vessels that we are most
deficient.
The new battleships named for the
slates which we are now turning out
number eight and range from 11, 525 to
13,500 tons. Our armored cruisers, the
New York and Brooklyn, are of 9,215
tons and 8,200 respectively. Boats of
the Chicago type are much smaller,
500 tons. The whole fleet built and
building Includes but the two armored
cruisers, six protected cruisers, twelve
first-class battleships, four being old
and of an inferior kind, and one rec-ond-claas
battle ship.
England has seventy battleships, all
told, and of these nine are $14,900 tons
each. Her fleet of cruisers Is still
larger and Includes six of 12,000 tons,
one of 14,100 tons and two of 14,200
tons. I
France has thirty-eight battleships,
two of them being of 12,052 tons each,
and forty cruisers, three of which are
of 10,000 tons each, while a fourth is
of 11,270 tons.
Japan has six first-class battleships
ranging from 14,850 to 15,200 tons, and
seven armored cruisers ranging from
9,436 to 9,850 tons. Russia has a total
of twenty-eight battleships of all
classes, Including one of 12,700 tons
and one of 13,100 tons, and twenty-nine
cruisers, including one of 12,336 tons
and another of 12,130 tons. In Italy's
fleet are fourteen battleships, the two
largest being of 15,900 and 15,654 tons,
Germany has sixteen battleships and
twenty cruisers of all types, but, like
ourselves, is deficient in modern big
boats. Her five new battleships are
of 11,180 tons each.
The tendency. It will be seen, is to
ward very powerful battleships and
armored cruisers, and they must be
matched by vessels of their own kind.
It was, therefore, very wise In Secre
tary Long and Admiral Dewey to rec
ommend changes from the original
plans of the navy department, which I
slighted the battleships entirely and I
provided only for three new armored ship canal from Georgian Bay to Mon
cruBlers, three small protected cruisers treal, and planning also to deepen
of about 2,500 tons each and twelve the Welland canal so that British war
gunboats. Excert tor the armored
cruisers this would bVa mere multi
plication of numbers without slgnlfl
cane.
AN OVERWORKED PHRASE.
Post-Intelligencer.
There Is one phrase of cheap dema
gogy which la being overworked with
sickening Iteration. In the absenco of
any argument against any proposed
measure of public policy, the demo
cratic minority always fall buck up
on the claim: "The trusts are behind
It." Facta, common sense, reason, Jus
tice or the sound policy of the proposed
measure, all are passed over to be met
with this parrot-like Iteration.
The Puerto Rico debate furnishes a
hPPy lurtrtloa of this democratic
logic. Speaker after speaker on the
democratic side, and all of the demo
cratic newspapers which have treated
the subject, have fallen back upon this
as their chief argument. Yet In the
particular connection used, the position
that the trusts, or any of the trusts, are
interesting themselves In the faintest
degree against the proposed Puerto
Rico tariff is too absurd to be seriously
considered. The men who use it are
I w -r -
well-tested ignorance of their party fol
lowers If they expect them seriously to
swallow such utter nonsense as this.
The only products of Puerto Rico
which will come within the operations
of the proposed tariff laws are sugar
and tobacco. The sugar exported from
Puerto Rico is all in the raw state. The
so-called sugar trust la a purchaser of
raw sugar and a seller of the refined
article. It has always clamored for
fre raw material and a tax upon re
filled. Its Interests are squarely with
free trade In raw sitgar with Puerto
Wco tor the m"er ot tnat lln
every other country.
The so-called tobacco trust is engaged
in the business of manufacturing pipe,
cigarette and chewing tobaccos from
raw materials. The tobaccos which it
uses In Its business are exclusively
of American growth. The cigar tobac
cos grown In tropical countries like
Cuba, Puerto Rico and tho Philippines
are not used by the tobacco trust, and
whether there Is or Is not a duty upon
such tobaccos is a matter in which the
tobacco trust naturally has not the
slightest Interest on earth.
The question of protection of Amerl
can Industries Is but one of the slight-
wt of th omenta used In support-
,n a lar"t uPn Puerto RIcan pro-
ducu- The Persons who would receive
" nnnnesimai aegree ot protection
under the proposed tariff, and the only
ones wno woul1 protected at all, are
the growers of cigar wrapper tobaccos
in Connecticut and Wisconsin, the su
gar cane growers of Louslana and the
beet sugar growers of Nebraska, Call
fornla, Utah and Washington. If these
growers have united In a trust, the
fact has thus far escaped public ob
Bervatlon.
JOHN BULL HAS
BOTH EYES
OPEN.
San Francisco Commercial News.
Great Britain is preparing to place
at her naval station at Hamilton. In
the Bermudas, one of the largest float
ing dry docks ever constructed. The
floating dry dock now In use at Hamil
ton Is among the largest In the world.
It has a length of 331 feet, a width at
tha entrance of 84 feet., and a depth of
25 feet. It is large enough to accomo-
date cruisers the size of the Olympla
and battleships the size of the Oregon.
But it will not accomodate modern
Iron-clad cruisers like the Brooklyn,
which has a length of 400 feet. Nor
will It accomodate England's first class
battleships of the type of the Formld-
able. Implacable or Majestic. The In-
Terence Is plain. While England is
talking peace, she continues quietly
to strengthen her war line along our
coast and our northern frontier. A
new dry dock in the Burmudas will
mean that the largest British battle
ships may be kept in American waters
and repaired at the Hamilton dock
yards. It will mean that In case of
war England can put her most power
ful fleet of battleships and armored
cruisers on our Atlantic coast, with
the assurance that they can be re
paired not 700 miles from New York
City or Brooklyn navy yard or Phila
delphia or Hampton Roads. England
Is ready "to clasp hands across the
sea," but she is strengthening every
military post and every naval station
in American waters. While St. Louis
Is quibbling over the completion of
the first division of a ship canal from
Lake Michigan to the Mississippi river,
England and Canada are planning a

England deserve no censure. She Is
simply acting the part of a wise power,
and, Incidentally, is teaching America
that the only leal assurance against
war Is preparation for it.
Th fact that there In no opposition
of any consequence to the renomlna
tlon of President McKlnley by the re
publicans and of William Jennings
Bryan by the democrats has caused a
famine In the political gossip markrt.
One hears very Ittle, if anything, about
the running mates of thse distinguished
titltens. On the republican side the
name of Cornelius lillss, of New York,
is oftenest mentioned, but no sure
enough serious candidate for the demo
cratic vice-presidential nomination is
suggested. The New York delegation
furnishes two candidates In the per
sons of William Suiter and Jefferson
M. Levy, but no one thinks of them
seriously, while Representative Daly of
New Jersey has Intervals when he
thinks he Is cut out for the vice-presi
dential timber. Sutler's chief claim I
to popularity is his pull with Richard
Croker and his habit ot Jumping up
and denouncing something or other as
the true friend of the people. He seems
to think he is the custodian of the peo
ple's welfare and would have others
bolleve the same thing. But, unfortun
ately for Sulzer, no one believes In him
save himself. Mr. Levy Is constantly
Introducing bills dealing with great na
tional questions. He would do a deal
of atatesniansllko work, but Levy's
chief claim to same Is the fact that he
owns Montecello, Jeffeerson's old home.
He cannot speak for a little bit, and
whenever he has an opportunity to
say anything he gets up and reads
something that no one hears or cares
unythlng about. If Mr. Bryan must
gel a running mate out of the New
York congressional crowd, he should
Pick out George B. McClellan. The
name ought to count for something
with the democracy, for one thing, and
then McClennan has a considerable
degree of ability. He keeps quiet when
there is nothing to say, works hard
on the committee on ways and means,
and when he docs speak says his say
briefly and with a large degree of
force. Washington Correspondent.
