time at lea-t, during which time the
laborer of necessity would be without
employment.
Then, too, the lalxrer would soon dis
cover how utter. y (utile Mr. Bryan's ef
fort would he to make better his con
dition by making war upon his employ
ers. The laborer certainly cannot be
benefited by a policy which is directed
wholly toward the n .ettlitig of values,
the reduction of the purchasing power
of his a;i.' and the enactment into law
of views which, tested by experience
and history, are wholly unsound. Jan. j
H. Fckels, Comptroller of the Currency
under Cleveland.
Mr. Bryan's plea for the salvation of
this country by the destruction of what
he terms "imperialism," as exemplified
in the administration of our affairs in
the Philippines, loses its force when it
is remembered what he pledges himself
w carry oui ai nome, in mailers wincn
go to the personal and proerty interests
of every citizen of the republic, no
matter how small such interests may be.
It would be the height of folly in this
campaign to forget the very important
effect which Mr. Bryan's election would
have upon the business interests of the
country. In the minds of those who
carry on the affairs w hich make up our
business world he is associated with un
certainty and doubt. It will not do to
say that these interests are Hellish ami
ought to receive a lesson, for the great
est sufferers will le those who are most
dependent upon the largest daily activi
ty in business. No one would suffer so
much as the laborer, for he must have
steady work day in and day out. He
has no reserve capital from which to
draw, and the curtailment of business
operations mean tl-o curtailment of
employment of labor, with attendant
distress and ' idleness which begets
crime.
JOHN SHERfl ANST ATE5H AN.
John Sheri.ian, statesman, scholar
and patriot, died at his home in
Washington City, (Vt. 22d, aged 7S years.
The name of Sherman will go into his
tory as one of America's great men. He
was former representative In the House,
for along time member of the Senate,
and twice held Cabinet positions. We
can think of no more fitting tribute than
the one paid hit memory by Wm. Mc
Kinley, upon learning of his death :
"In the fullness of years and honors,
John Sherman, lately Secretary of Mate,
has passed away.
"Few among our citisens have risen
to greater or more deserved eminence in
the national councils than he. The
story of his public life and services is,
as it were, the history of the country
for half century. In the Congress of
the United States he ranked among the
foremost in the House and later in the
Senate. He was twice a member of the
Executive Cabinet, first as Secretary of
the Treasury and afterward as Secretary
of State. Whether in debate during the
dark hours of our Civil War, or as the
director of the country's finances during
the period of rehabilitation, or as a trust
ed councilor in framing the Nation's
laws for over forty years, or as the ex
ponent of its foreign policy, his cotim
was ever marked by devotion to the U-st
interests of his beloved land and by
able and conscientious efforts to uphold
its dignity and honor. His countrymen
will long revere his memory and see in
him a type of the patriotism, the up
rightness and the teal that go to mold
ding and strengthening a nu'ion.
"In fitting expression of the sense of
bereavement that a 111 ids the Republic,
I direct that on the day of the funeral
the executive offices of the United States
display the national Hag at half-muxi
aiid that the representatives of the
United States in foreign countries shall
pay in like manner appropiate tribute
to the illustrious dead for a eriod of ten
days."

Will the American jeople take an

Will they suffer the Bryan free silver

debase the nation's honor, to bring pan

cation with Aguinaldo and the enemies i
of our government in the Pilippines? j
I believe Presifh-tit NfeKiitlev niiL'lif. to I
le re-elected us largely as possible by
I'emocratic votes. Under the present
domination of Mr. Brvan a conservative
iH-mocrat can tind no place of influence
in the party. Those who now return to
it after rejecting Bryanism four years
ago will find themselves without voice
in the administration. They go back to
accept Mr. Bryan's views. He does not
accept theirs. They indorse him he
does not indor e them; and, once elected,
they are not in a position, after ( hang
h,g front, to protest against his radical
ism. By voting for him they do, in
fact, indorse him, despite a mental
reservation that they do not approve of
his public utterances and Populistic
views. They disarm themselves of a
right to criticise and draw down upon
their heads more blame for Mr. Bryan's
unsound views as a disturbing factor
than does Mr. Bryan himself. For by
their act in voting for Mr. Bryan they
have made it possible for him to do the
harm which they must know would fol
low the carrying out of the principles
for which he stands. James H. Fckels,
Comptroller of the Currency under
Cleveland.
Thomas Jefferson purchased Ixmisi

Mr. Brvan told us in !"; that the
volume of money would decrease, but i
the public records show that there is'
more money in circulation today t
capita than ever U-fore in the history of !
the Hepublic. Democratic orators do
not deny our prosperity, but say it is
only temporary. McKinley has done
well to give us four years of it, ami we
will give him a chance to make it erma
nent. Cleveland did not give us even a
sample of it.
Mr. Bryan says that Filipinos are jx-r-fectly
able to enjoy self government, ami
in the same breath tells us that uoon as ,
lie is elected he will establish a stable
government and Uke away from them
the harbor of Manila, then establish a
protectorate. What absurdity ! If the
Filipinos are capable of geverning them
selves, why should Mr. Bryan establish
a stable government for them?
