RAMPANT DEMOCRACY.
Democratic Press Burst All Bonds
In Their Indignation.
In every contest in Ohio, Iowa, Illinois
and Michisnn when the Democrats were
on a free islver or cheap money platform
they have been overwhelmingly beaten.
What evidence have we that there is to
he a change in 'iHi'i Montgomery (Ala.)
Advertiser.
When a great party has reached that
stage of moral diiravitv that such creat
ures as Tillman, Altpold & Co. are per
mitted to speak to it. much less take an
important . part in moulding its politics,
its course K indeed, about ruu. Wa
bash (Ind.) Times.
American will never give this crowd
control of the country until they shall
have fallen to the level of the old world
communists. That will not happen this
year, at lopst. The people must be de
graded in tlieir own esteem before they
will vote for a war of class against
class. -Memphis Scimitar.
The finnnci:ilp!nnk in the platform
adopted by the I K'liiocrntic national con
vention at Chicago is distinctly a declara
tion for such repudiation of existing
debts, public and private, as can be
secured by the enforcement upon the
country as legal tender money of a de
based silver coinage conformed to a de
graded standard of money. New Or
leans Picayune.
Scratch a silver man and yon come to
a Populist. In the heart of each burns
the desire to get as much as possible and
give as little. If either of them hap
pen to be a debtor, this desire takes the
form of repudiation. As most of them
are debtors repudiation is (lie thing they
are for. and in the Chicago platform
they go for it straight. New York
Times.
It is but pi-oner to say in fairness and
justice to the grand old Democratic
party of Hamilton, .lefferson and Jack
son that we cannot depart from the
ways of the fathers upon the financial
question, and, therefore, cannot, much
to our regret, follow the Democratic
banner as it trails into a foreign camp;
and must, as a matter of self-respect,
refuse lo support Mr, Bryan upon the
financial plat form upon which he has
been placed and stands. Dayton (O.)
Times.
Till the contest is decided our voice
hall be raised and our influence given
for the election of Mr. McKinley to the
presidency. The security of the cur
rency is the paramount question of the
hour., It eclipses issues. Relieving that
this security can best be attained by
the success of the Republican party,
we promise it our sincere and beurty
support for its presidential ticket in the
impending campaign. We have never
believed that the Republican party made
the best selection possible to it. but it
is ditlicult to see how any candid man
can deny that the selection of the Repub
lican party was eminently more fitting
and appropriate. There is an absence
of dignity in the Democratic selection
which is seen both in the candidate
himself nnd in the circumstances that at
tended his nomination. Boston Herald.
The true Interests of the people ask
for the election of Mr. McKinley, not
for himself but for the absolute ne
cessity of the whole people of the Tint
ed States and of the greater world of
which they are after all but a part. In
any event let us be reasonable. Don't
talk of "sectionalism" or of "annrchy"
or of "revolution." Remember always
that compared with the unity of country
the gold standard is not worth fighting
for; one country, one Uug. Springfield
Republican (Ind.-Dcm.)
Ko reasonable man can ask the Times
to stultify ami dishonor itself and long
time!! Democratic principles. While gun
porting to" the best of our ability the
state nominations for riccniiva offices
and legislative nominee, we feel admired
tist nil true Democrat will justify us
It deciding that we cannot give the ip
prt of the Time to the Chicago cr.n

It is altogether probable tlut the
Democrats who love Democracy and who
decline to be counted among its ber ivi-s
will have a ticket in ihe near future that
will satisfy their desires and aims.- This
would be the most desirable result, bnr,
come whnt may, the Chronicle absolves
itself from all responsibility for the ut
terances of the alleged Democratic con
vention just closed nt Chicago, and
pledges itself to aid in the defeat if its
nominees. To participate in a campaign
for such n ticket on gueh a platform
would be to be untrue to every patriotic
Democratic principle. La Crosse (Wu.)
Chronicle.
A bright young man with a ';lvery,
demagogic tongue is planted on the snti
Democratic platform adopted at Chicago,
8nd the excited victims of a singular and
illogical craze vie with the sympathizers
with Anarchy and Populism in the long
acclaim to William J. Bryan, the elo
quent and eccentric representative of the
bolters of Nebraska. . . . The plat
form and the candidate threaten a par
alysis of business until the day of elec
tion: for a longer period if success could
possibly attend; and they condemn the
Democratic party to a fate that would
be death to any other party, but the
Democratic party is undying. Utica Ob
server. Will Lose Hundreds of Thousands.
Savannah News: All Democrats will
not approve the declarations in respect
to coinage, bonds, the currency, income
tax and railroads. These latter declara
tions are much more Topulistic than
Democratic. It looks very much as if
they were put into the platform for the
express purpose of currying favor with
the Populists. In fact, if we are not
mistaken,, Senator Tillman said in his
speech in the convention that the purpose
of them is to influence the Populists to
come into the lines of the Democracy
and become a part of the Democratic
party. He did rot seem to take into
consideration the fact that the adoption
of Popnlistic declarations might not
break up the Populist party, but would
pretty certainly drive hundreds of thou
sands of Democrats out of the Democrat
ic party.
Boss Champions of Disorder.
Trenton (N. J.) American (Dem.):
But, whatever may be the course of the
politicians and the party leaders, there
will be thousands of Democrats in New
Jersey who not in resentment of the
contumely with which the state and its
interests have been treated, but from
personal nnd public motives will refuse
to give their approval to a convention
and a candidate which have publicly
and taingloriously threatened the de
struction of the nntiou's credit, the dim
inution of values, the retardment of busi
ness, the attack ou property, and the tri
umph of disorder above the law and
those called upon to administer it. And
they will so refuse in the belief that
all other party issues fade into insignifi
cance in comparison with the issue as it
has been formulated at Chicago.
Danger to Liberty.
Galveston New: The fact ia that the
programme formulated at Chicago mere
ly marks the skirmish line of a great and
final battle for social revolution, indus
trial reconstruction, and constitutional
subversion. Without consitutional safe
guards there can be do assurance of eith
er free government or individual liberty.
An unchecked aocial Democracy means
no law but the Inw of brute force, no
rule and no order but the rule and order
of irresponsible tyranny. Intelligent
citizens grounded in wholesome appre
ciation of the constitutional essentials
of a stable republic, who nnremcly
cherish the priceless iiiteresta of consti
tutional liberty and aecurity, who feel
that there can be no true progress with
out the conservation of these interest,
will not fail to see in preaent emergen
cies where their common danger liea.
Realizing also that the problem of de
fense is their common concern, they can
well understand that how tbey may beat
proceed to combat, defeat and disarm
their common enemy ia a question of
inoiuentnry expediency to be decided In
the light of current eveuta and modify
ing circumstance.

Chicago Ktaats-JIeituu;:: The Democ
racy which declared itself last v.cc!; in
Chicago is a new ami ucgencrutcd edition
of the Democracy of IStil: in it reigns
the old Bourbon spirit which never leaiut.
and never forgets. Who, therefore, de
sires that the United States should fur
ther develop their national organism;
that the national government 'should be
further strengthened in the interest of
all; that national honor be kept unde
nted; that the national credit be kept in
tact, turns away from a Democracy
which has placed itself at the disoosal
of destructive forces and joins that party
which was called in 18lil to suve the
Lnion, and which in this year again
has the patriotic duty to purify the na
tional organism from the poison of the
Populistic Democracy.
The issue is not one of party, but of
the highest achievements of the nation,
which can be kept secure only by the
authority of the Federal government, by
an honest currency and by an inassail
able credit.
Iowa Tribune (Dem.). Davenport The
recklessness and fanaticism of the silver
people at the Chicago convention, who
trampled all oppositon under foot, has
made a very bad impression even upon
many of those who sympathize with the
theory of the debasers of money. The
majority of our voters is not ready by
any means to deliver the nation to such
crazy demagogues as Bryan, Waite, Till
man and others.
Waechter und Anzeiger (Dem.), Cleve
landThe currency plank, with its de
cisive declaration against the gold stand
ard, which, with total disregard of tbe
entire other world of culture and com
merce, is declared to be an English insti
tution and is stigmatized as such, while
the free coinage of silver at the ratio of
lo to 1 is demanded as an immediate
measure of government, cannot fail to
make an altogether revolutionary impres
8'n. We should not be at all surprised
if this news should cause in Europe a
decline of American securities in all ex
changes; anticipated this decline has long
been.
Louisville Anzeiger (Dem.) Nonsense,
thou prevailest! From (irover Cleveland
to William Jennings Bryan this ia a
jump for which the real Democrat is not
ao easily ready. The Anzeiger prefers at
any rate not to make it. After the adop
tion of the platform the Anzeiger had uo
need to pause a moment for the declara
tion that it would not support the can
didate who would accept the nomination
upon this platform. The nomination of
Bryan makes this dntv easier and more
agreeable. Bland and Boiea would have
been fought by ihe Anzeiger on ace unit
of the cause which they represent. In
Bryan we do Dot only tight the cause but
the person. Only a convention wnich
placed Tillman above Cleveland and
Blackburn above Carlisle would perpe
trate the bad joke to present the young
hero of phrases from the West for the
highest othce in its gift.
Reebote (Dem.). Milwankee: Aa the
close of tbe century has brought forth
the abominable "new woman," who
rides a bicycle, smokes, drinks, wears
trousers and teara herself loose from all
old customs, ao there ha arisen in Chi
cago, imbued with the aame revolution
ary pirit, a "new Democratic purty."
which atands everything time-honored on
the head, denies the traditions of the old
party, administers a kick to honesty and
decency and cornea before the people
with a financial programme which i a
mockery lo all reason. The "uew worn
au" and the "new party" are genuine
fin de aierle experiences, and one would
consider neither of them seriously If they
were not ao aeriou in their consequence.
Tbey are on the one hand the regret
table and undeniable excrescences of th
liberality of social view and on the
other band of the freedom of the politi
cal thought that the Constitution of th
United Slates prevent nobody from mak
ing a fool of himself aa often at be likes
to.
Davenport Democrat (Dem): The

that theae thirteen bankers, with a total
