Pot President
WILLIAM M KIXLEY,
Of Ohio.
Por Vice-President
THEODORE ROOSEVELT,
Of New York.
Owing to the campaign of the Demo
cracy the government finds a large
standing army necessary.
The awful results of imperialism have
begun to appear. Republican officials
are going to allow Porto Rlcans who
are residing In Baltimore to vote, and
there will be no chance before election
for the liberal-minded Democracy to
pass a constitutional amendment deny
ing them the privilege because their
grandmothers didn't have It
WHAT BASENESS DESERVES.
Morning Oregonlan.
William J. Bryan Is the most un
worthy aspirant and dangerous candi
date for the presidency of the United
States offered by one of the dominant
parties within the memory of living
man. We have bad candidates with
mistaken views, we have had men with
fangerous policies. But we have never
tad a man whow perversion of truth
was so shameless, whose stock In trade
consisted of appeals to class prejudice,
whose hopes of success lay wholly In
ministering to the basest passions of
human nature. It Is past comprehen
sion how any man who values truth
before falsehood and sets law before an
archy can ally himself with this most
conscienceless of demagogues and roost
pernicious of agitators.
We printed the other day a letter that
showed Irrefutably that Bryan had
taken a message of Abraham Lincoln's,
written to rebuke the ownership of cap
ital In human labor, and so perverted
It as to make It appear to be an Indorse
ment of Bryan's senseless ravings
against capital In Its relations with free
labor. It was an act palpably and un
mitigatedly dishonest, ttat should find,
as It has found, no defenders, and that
should forever debar Bryan from the
confidence and support of men of prin
ciple. Why did Bryan urge ratification of
the peace treaty? For the purpose of
putting the Republicans In a hole. It is
the act of a cheap politician, it is not
the act of a statesman.
Bryan went about the country in 1S96
predicting all manner of catastrophe if
we kept the gold standard. If he knew
better, he Is a knave. If he didn't
know better, he Is a fool.
He talks silver at the West, antl-lm-perlallsm
at the East, anti-trusts at the
South. He Is for anything that will get
votes.
He wants us to return to the simple
dignity of the Fathers, yet he scurries
about the country to receive superfluous
nominations, and shouts his speeches
Into a phonograph.
He denounces autocratic rule, yet he
Is himself the most dictatorial of living
politicians.
He holds up Washington and Lin
coin as examples, and yet he has done
nothing for four years but pursue with
unblushing and unwearied ambition
the Democratic nomination for presi
dent. Now. a man may be a cheap politi
cian and an arrant demagogue and still
be sound at heart But the baseness
of Bryan's purpose Is clearly apparent
from the nature of his appeal.
If a man la contented, Bryan will do
bis best to make him discontented. If a
man defies the law with riot, Bryan
pats him on the back.'' If a man Is
poor, Bryan tells him the government
Is to blame, Bryan encourages him to
call down Imprecations on the rich.
Here is a man who goes about the
country stirring up the poor against the
rich, the broken against the success,
ful. the Idle against the busy, the la
borer against the employer, the rioter
against the courts, the propertyless
against property, the disorderly against
order, the lawless against law.
Every man that Is enraged at the
existing crder: every man that Is envi
ous f his neighbor's progress every
man that blames society for his own
incompetence; every man that feels like
taking the law Into his own bands to
redress his grUvance against capital;
every socialist, communist, anarcTHst
and rioter: every enemy of progress
and prosperity; every croaking raven of
calamity; every apostle of discontent;
every prophet of Jespalr. recognises a
friend In Bryan, and recognises truly,
because bis whole appeal, overt or co
vert. Is addressed to these basest ele
ments and most dangerous foes cf our
civilization.
Such a man Is out of place In the
United States. Such a man Is at vari
ance with American Ideals of liberty
and law. Individual enterprise and re
sponsibility. He Is the enemy of the
doctrine of fair play, which Insures
each the fruits of his labor. He offers
us despair for hope, discontent for de
termination, bitterness for ambition.
despondency for courage. Such a man
is dangerous, not only and not so griev
ously because .ie perverts history,
palms oft humbug as philosophy and
menaces business and order, but be
cause he seeks to poison at Its very
source the fountain of our national life.
He seeks to substitute for a virile self
reliance, cbedlence to law and resolu
tion to press forward, a spirit of an
archistic rage and bitter complaint that
belongs only In the decadent civiliza
tions of ths Old World.
The difference between Bryan and all
his predecessors Is one not of degree,
but of kind. We hare never had a man
before who sought to build himself up
on the ruins of prosperity, and not only
that but on the wreck of individual
ecurage and manly endeavor. The an
swer of our sterling young American
manhood to this base appeal should be
decisive and overwhelming.

HOW BRIGHT'S DISEASE STARTS.
Indigestion, biliousness, blood poisoned
with urea and uric, acid (which suould

rheumatic pains in nerves and joints,
causing irritation of the kidneys, then

sure approach of Bright' disease. Do

I never got relief until I had taken

and gives quick relief, and is a sure
