For President WILLIAM M'KISLE Y. Of Ohio. Por Vice-President THEODORE ROOSEVELT, Of Sew York. Another Democratic victory! t Six American soldiers killed and nine wounded In an engagement with the friends of Bryan. The largest fund of gold In the world is now In the treasury of .the United States. If you want It to stay there vote for the man who got it there. The two thousand stranded miners vho were to come from Nome on the transport Law ton were, like Democratic majorities, much reduced when counted. Dr. Leyds. the Transvaal agent n Paris, Informs the Associated Press that President (?) Kruger Is not ac customed to a cold climate and hence will not visit President McKinley. A wise precaution! That awful McKinley has been caus ing some more strikes. Canadian shoe factories and cotton mills have had to close down and the blue noses are forc ed to send across the line for our man ufactured products. The spectacle of two of Bryan's cam paigning tours Inside of four years is enough to make the Danish West In dies fearful of union with America. He might want to tour them next time, If they agreed to annexation. If the empress dowager, Prince Tuan and other leading Chinese criminals would follow the worthy example of Governor Yu Siang, a vast deal of trou ble would be saved the powers as well as the Chinese nation Itself. The New York reception to Governor Roosevelt was as far ahead that ten dered Bryan in that city, in all that goes to make up a magnificent suc cess, as the Republican majority in November will be ahead of the Bryan vote. This terrible imperialism must be stopped. Here is McKinley sending car loads of rations to Arizona Indians without calling a special session of con gress to have an appropriation bill passed or held up by Democratic ob structionists. I. W. Hellman, president of the Ne vada Bank, of San Francisco, and Farmers' and Merchants' bank, of Los Angeles, says: "I am a life-long Dem ocrat, but I shall not vote for Mr. Bryan for president.

America is to day a credulous country and will con tinue to be so unless we change our monetary system. Let the ratio of 16 to 1 be adopted and It will drive out what Hold there is here. Our securities will be sent back from abroad to be sold here In Immense sums. One crisis would follow another. Manufacturing interests would be greatly Injured; la bor, which Is now In good demand, would suffer. Another objection to Bryan Is that he is not a Democrat. I am a moderate expansionist. With out expansion I believe that this coun try would stand still, Just as any large corporation does which does not ex fand and keep up with the times. I bellev in holding on to every foot of land that the American flag flies over, and would not give up one bit of it. California has been much benefited by this expansion. Our trade has grown and is growing continually by reason of the policy of the present admlnls tration. I believe that this trade will keep on expanding if Mr. McKinley is re-elected. It would be lost If Mr. Bry an were elected." STEVENSON AS A PATRIOT. When Stevenson was running for the vice-presidency In 1S92. the New York Press took occasion to look up his rec ord as an American and secured the following evidence: "Stevenson sold revolvers to traitors. Affidavit of Parker Gardner, Wabash, Ind., Aug. 6, 1S91 'Stevenson's name appeared on the record of membership of the Knights of the Golden Circle, which I captured Statement of Major J. Olmstead. now of Los Angeles, Cal. "Stevenson was throughout the war a friend of the Copperheads." Affidavit of Rev. G. B. Snedeker, pastor of the Methodist church in Mr. Stevenson's home in 1S62. "Stevenson said he was glad Lincoln was shot and that he should have been killed earlier." Affidavit of William B. Whiffen. editor of the Metamora Senti nel, where Stevenson resided In 1S62. If 'General' Stevenson could produce even one little bit of a speech of public utterance made by him in 1S63 or ISM in favor of a vigorous prosecution of the war for the Union, or of sustaining the hands of Abraham Lincoln, loyal people may forget or believe themselves mistaken in their firm recollection that In 1S63 and 1SG4 A. E. Stevenson was rank Copperhead politician and candi date for office in Woodford county.". Ex-Governor Hamilton, of Illinois, who ved at Bloomington during the war. THE PARAMOUNT ISSUE. New York Tribune. Mr. Bryan has put forward, or his friends have put forward in his behalf. only one serious reason for trying to shelve free silver and to make the quaint and curious thing dubbed "anti imperialism" the paramount :sue of this campaign. In fact, only one reason Is logically possible or conceivable. That is that, great and Important as free silver Is, "anti-imperialism" is greater and more important. That Is the only reason which could Justify the change. It is the only reason Mr. Bryan could give which Is worthy of a moment's no tice. We do not say, and we do not believe. It is his real reason. But It Is his ostensible reason. our years ago. however-since which time, as Mr. Bryan himself assures us neither he nor his party has changed in the least in respect to the silver ques tionwhat did Mr. Bryan say about this then paramount Issue? He told the people of New York that he believed "the gold standard Is made up of more misery for the human race than wars or pestilence or famine, more misery than human brain can conceive or human tongue can tell." That Is what he said then of his paramount issue, the Issue he then made paramount above peace and war, life and death, but the issue which he now tries to shelve and to Ig nore. He said that deliberately, as th matured fruit of his statesmanlike and patriotic judgment. Is he prepared to re-af!irm that dec laration today? If go does he mean to try to persuade us that "Imperialism" and "militarism" are worse than he de clared the gold standard to be? Th-y cannot be. If the gold standard Is worse than tongue can tell or mind can conceive, it Is idle to talk of anything else being worse. The finite mind can ot conceive anything beyond the incon ceivable. There can be nothing worse than the worst. Or at any rate we can conceive of nothing worse than that which Is worse than we can conceive. On the other hand, If Mr. Bryan now admits that the gold, standard Is not quite as bad as he represented It to be, and that it Is so much less bad that It Is possible for us to conceive of some- thing Sorse, he convicts himself of ex aggeration and false Judgment then and exjceff himself to the suspicion that he' hay be equally in error now. '.'Punch" once depleted one coster as standing meek and mute before another who was pouring upon him the vials of his vociferous wrath with such copious ness and illuminative resources as only the coster vocabulary knows. "Why don't you answer him?" demanded a bystander. "How enn I?" was the mournful response; "he's used up all the best words!" Mr. Bryan must re gret In 1S00 that in 1SS6 he used up so many of his best word that he has none left with which to convince the public that to him any Issue Is itaramount to the simple desire to get votes and the simple greed to get Into office.
