Food lor Thought.
The following dispatch from San Juan,
the capital city of Pott) llico is food for
much thought aud reflection :
The streets of San .luan ware la laby
rinth of glitterirg Spanish flags today, in
honor of Si. Jago, the paliou saint of
Snani. Banners and buiiticif, Buspetd-
ed fioiu house to house, covered the
tburoughfareM, and everywhere the bal
conies were richly decorntsd. There was
no attempt whatever to display the
American colore Hie celebration of the
Fourth of July wastotelly eclipsed today
Last evening there was a grand conctrt
in the Plaza, attended h 3000 Spaniards
and this was followed by patriotic au
dresaee, received with great enthuBinsin
at t'te Casino. At dawn there was a
general linging of chiirchjiells. followed
by atreet parados. Business was entirely
BUBpended. An elaborate bull at tne Ca
sino this evening concluded the festivi
ties. A prominent Porto llican diseas
ing the celebration today, said:
"Our peovle should not be blamed by
tho Americans for expressing their feel
ings in this way. The United States
constitution has not been extended to the
inlind. The uiivilegos of citizenship
have been denied them. In such clr
,.,,, ainiu'CB Porto Rico cannot observe
American holidays. "
All this comeB from McKiuley'e scheme
In nwVn n ilnnsndont vassill colony Of
I'orto Kico. How different is this from
the scheme ol the immortal Jefferson
who purchased Louisiana from France
In the trea'y made with France it wbb
expressly stipulated that the inhabitants
of Louisiana Bhould have all I e priv
ileges and immunities of citizens ot the

C.ovcrnor lioclibum cf Kentucky and
inl.i w Ymkes have been named by tne
ilrnnicruts and republicans respectively
as rivul leaders in tberaco this fall. Yer-
kes is about the strongest man that in

whether the ucoplo of Kentucky will con
sent to plnco in power a party responsible
for the crituos perpetrated by the republi

Tho fc'eriuan Americans will not submit

Colonel Blanton Duncan, of Los An
gslee, Calif., for forty years has been a
true election prophet. In 1888 he pre
dicted Cleveland's defeat, !n 1892 he pre
dicted his election, in 189(1 be showed
how Bryan would be defeated, predicting
correctly the vote of California, Hew
Yorit, Kentucky, and several other
states. Now tie makes the following
prediction for the November election.
Mr. Bryan will be the ntxt president
Iu round numbers, there will bo cast
1 ,000,000 votes in the presidential elec
tion this year, ol which Mr. Bryan will
receive 7,400,000 and Mr. McKinley G,
700.000. In 1800 Mr. Bryan cttri d Alabama,
Arkansas, Colorado, Fiorina, Gsorgia,
Idaho, KanBas, Louisiana, Misaiebipli,
MisBouii, Montana, Nehraika, iNevann,
North Ca.-olina, North Dakota, South
Carolina. South Dakota, launeBBee,
TfiitnH. Utah. Virginia. Washington and
Wyoming 170 electoral vote". Mr
.McKinley received 271 electoral voleB.
In 19J0 Mr. Bryan will carry Alabama,
Arkansas, Flurida, Georgia, Kentucky,
Louieiaua, Maryland, Mississippi, Mits
ouri, North Carolina, SJMh Carolina
Tennessee, Texas, West Virginia, Vir
ginia, California, Nevada, Montana, Col
orado, Indiana, Kantas, Minnesota, Ne
braska. New fcYork and Utah. Hub
gives Mr. Bryan 250 electoral voles.
Brvan will have the next llooee ot
Representatives by a majority ol lifteen
In the Senate, during the Bryan ad
ministration, Matt Q.iay will have a seat.
So will Clark of Montana. Delaware
and Utsh will Bond democratic Benators
to Washington. Allen will retain bis
position as Senator Irom Nebraska. It iB
probable that when the senate is re-arranged
by the Legislatures of 1901, Mr.
Bryan will have forty-six supporters in
that body a majority of two. In 1905
the Senate will be much more strongly
democrat'C .
In ISO only 133,148 gold ep mocrae
atood together, all the others voting for
Mr. McKinley. This year moBt of I e
gold democrats will vote far Mr. Bryan .
Of the Scandinavians, the Dutch and
tte Gormans, a vast proportion will this
year support Mr. Bryan not (ewer than
1,000,000 who, in 18y0, voted for -Mr.
McKinley.
Mr. Bryan will carry New York by 30,
00. Thie will be a matter of clean evo
lution of public opinion . Iii 1890 Mr.
McKinley received in New York 2G8.4G9
more voles than Mr. Bryan. In 1897
there came a reaction, and Judge Parker
democrat,;doleated Judge Wallace, re
publican, by 60,889 voteB. In 1898 the
strong personality of Colonel Roosevelt
served to lilt the republican voie above
its due level and the figures stood :
Roosevelt, republican, bbl,7l'7;; Van
Wyck, democrat, 613,921. This yea-,
with Governor ltjosevelt aiiain a factor,
but national issues of stiong intlu-
ence. the result will be a democratic
plurality of 30,000.
Kentucky will give Mr. Bryan a pm
ality next autumn ol 20,000 vctes. Tin
ueoi'le of that Btaie will vote ibeir pro
test BgainEt-all that Tavlor aud his gang
of thugs stood for.
Calilornia will give Mr. Bryan a plu
rality ol 12.0CO votes. The strife within
the lopublicanlparty in this state will
he the principal factor in awinmug Lal-
fornia bo strongly into the deuioerati
column.
The mid-roadors will not poll more
than 250,000 votes one-half of wiikIi
will be cast in Texas, Georgia and Ala
bama. Michigan will show a great defection
fromlthe republicans. So will Wiecon
sin. Ohio will drop away enormously
from the usual republican showing. Ill
inois will indinate a material progress of
democratic ideae. ;
On the whole, the election of 1900 will
give the democracy ascendancy in na
tional atlairs aud give the democrats
tremendous power in most ol the Btatee
l'be Oblneee army bae one big advaL-
tage. The soldier is paid only $1 a
montb.
It is the plain duty of the Americen
people this fall to aggressively vote Presi
dent McKinley out of the b g chair at
Washington. '
Tbe republicans have begun their uenal
tactics of declaring MrKinley's election
sure in order to iuQuehce eome voters
who like to be on the winning eide.
This year they are laying it on thick,
Thty keep yelling that there ii noth
ing in this cry of imperialism, and that
it is merely for effect, but there is eome
ilnuginit. The imperialistic policy cf
Ibe colonial system is already established
with its attendant evils. It means a
government with a continual war on its
bands, and hence a very expensive
standing array lo support. This alone is
enough to make loyal Amor. can citizeoB
vole for a change.
The Lite, an illustrated paper of New
York, bae come out for Bryan and says:
'The election of Mr. Bryan would not
mean free silver- Congress iB tor gold
and will so remain. McKinloy's re-elec
tion would ronme a pro'onged and
bloody orgie ol imperialism that is of
conquest, debt and dishonor. As to the
two candidates personally, we prefer Mr,
Bryan. He has conviction; such as
they are and he carries a spine."
Tne harvest outlook is a very serious
one. The farmer Ibis year lias a great
deal to contend wilh, a short wheat crop
and the devastations of cut and other
kinds of worms, but he will come out on
op, and though his purse may get low
his year he will make it next. The in
creasing of the ay stem of divereBod farm
ing evstem will have a material effect in
helping him out, It will be the salva
tion ol this country. Whorever wheat
has been made tbe leading crop for years
it ha eventually run itself out and tbe
chances are that it will do it in Oregon .

Ti -day William McKinley is undoing
the work of Thomas Jefferson, and the
imperialists are reviving the cry ol the
o'd lories "The'colonita aie not lit to
giver ii themselves." The doctiinee
sanctified y the blood of the Involution
are scorned as "glittering generalities,''
while those who follow the cbart laid
down by our fathers are denounced as
unpatriotic "subjects, as Ihey were in
days of vore.
The imperialists, tl at is to say the lor
ies, of today have discovered the greatest
blunder ol history. We should have
Bubintited to England and listened to
Burke, who said that men had no right
and were not wise enough to govern
themselves if they bad. They would
amend the Declaration of Independence
and make It say : "All men are created
equal except those who are created
otherwise. Governments derive their
iuet power from the army and navy r"
They would ignore the coust'uitlon to as
to deprive Luman beings of the right of
suffrage and the right ot trial by jury
They would revise the word of God ard
make Him lay, "Tnou abalt not kill,
except bv wholesale and for purports of
benevolent atsiuiilalion." With fire
and swords they would conquer the ori
ent and lu Iho meantime impoverish the
Occident. Jobnttown (Pa.) Demecrat.
