WHAT BRYAN REPRESENTS.
Sider0t2On.

Bryan stands before the country
as the candidate of three parties
the Democratic, the Populist and The
National Silver party. The last
named is of little consequence as a
political organization, and It's aims
and objects are included in the plat
forms of the other two.
The declaration of principles which
the Democratic convention enunci-
ated has rightly been considered as
carrying with it anarchistic tenden-
cies, but bad as it is, it does not 60
to the extent of the Popullst plat
form. The two platforms agree as
to free silver, but the Populists go
farther and demand a sufficient in
crease of the circulating medium to
+.restore the just level of prices and
labor" That would mean an alb
normally large issue of paper money
or deprecated coin, which are other
names for imitation, and imitation
means wholesale robbery and ulti-
mate bankruptcy. 1t is reckless
policy and would not only cover us
with shame before other nations, but
bring a series of disasters upon us,
destroying a confidence in our fnan-
cial system which would bring about
its overthrow. Nothing worse could
befall nation than to break down
its respect for commercial and finan-
zcial integrity.
The Populists demand the govern
ment ownership and control of rail.

erations and extend paternalism in
