DELICIOUS UNCONSCIOUS INCoNsIs-
TENCY.

A correspondent writes to the Phil
in which the silver men are traduced
by those opposed to their views. Cit
ing General Bragg's remark that me
loved Grover Cleveland for the enc
mics he had made he says he finds
himself learning to love Mr.. Bryan for
the same reason. He says he does not
pretend to thoroughly comprehend the
financial question, but that he has
sufficient intelligence to understand
what is going to popularize a candidacy
with the people which might, under
other conditions, prove a most popular
one. He then proceeds: Let us in the
enlightened and politically purified east
discontinue our present practice of
calling cur western brother names. Let
us remember he has not had the po-
litical tuition we have enjoyed. We
who are proud of our Tammany and
our Quay and our Platt, and here in
Philadelphia our own and only Mar
tin, can well afford to deal kindly, yes
forbearngly, with those who differ with
us on this subject of money"
Pretty sarcastic that, and it stirs the
editor of the Times to the depths. For
that part of his reply which relates to
the views of the correspondent we do
not care, but that part which has to do
with abuse of believers in free silver is
a very gem in its way. Here it is:
We have not seen any abuse of the
western farmer in the eastern journals;
columns, and none will appear. The
western farmer is entitled to just as
much respect as the eastern farmer or
any other of our industrial people. 1t
is not the faith of the western farmer
that has aroused the east to aggressive
action it is the proclaimed faith OF the
repudiationist and the communist DIS
tinctly presented in the Chicago plat
form that has compelled honest, intel
Mgent citizens of every political faith
to make common cause against ma
tional diShonor.
It isn't abuse of people to call them
repudiationists and communists and to
say that the proclamation of their po-
litical faith compels honest, intelligent
citizens to make common cause against
national dishonor For unconscious in
consistency this answer of the Times
is the most delicious thing we have
seen.

BRYAN AND THE poruLusrs.


Mr.. Bryan did entirely right in re-
ouesting Chairman Jones, of the ma
tional Democratic committee, TO de-
Cline for him nomination for presi-
dent by the Populist convention if the
convention refused to nominate for vice
president Mr.. Sewall Every sense of
honor and duty to his party required
that he should; had he done otherwise
he would have been open to the charge
of having been willing to sacrifice Mr..
Sewail for the purpose of obtaining a
seeming personal advantage.
For the sake of the silver cause, in
which the Populists are as much inter
ested as the Democrats and the Ma
tional Silver party, it would have been
very much better to have nominated
Bryan and Sewall the same as the Ma
tional Silver party did. They did nomi-
nate Mr. Bryan in spite of his declina-
ton and will unquestionably give him
their loyal support If they did not
choose to nominate Mr. Sewail no one
has any right to object. 1t was not
Democratic convention, and Democrats
had no more right to insist that it
should take as its candidates the Dem
ocratic nominees than the friends of
Senator Teller had to insist that the
Chicago convention take him as it's
candidate.
The Populists have nominated Mr..
Bryan as their candidate for president
notwithstanding his declination and it
is safe to say that they viii put his
name at the head of their ticket and
vote for him. Over their actions in
this regard he can exercise no con-
troll. Nor can he fail to appreciate
their action, for it is complimentary in
the extreme to him. 1t is not impossi-
bic that eX-Congressman Watson will
decline the nomination for vice-presi-
dent, in which event it would be an
easy matter to induce the Populisit ma
tional committee to place Mr.. Sewalls
name on the ticket
The action of the Populist and Ma
tional Silver party conventions prac-
tically unites all the silver forces. We
do not think that there will be any in
dependent third ticket in the field, and
that being the case there is no reason
why the campaign should not now open.
There is but one great issue before the
country-that of silver-and the people
are very fast aligning themselves upon
1T. At the present time, every thing
seems most propitious for the success
of silver. The silver forces are we'll
organized, well led and are aggressive.
Mr.. Bryan is bold and courageous in
uttering his sentiments upon the finan-
cial question, the great question of the
day, while Major Mckinley is hesitat-
ing and cautious in uttering his senti-
ments upon it. The attitude of the
leaders Of the silver and gold forces
we'll exhibits the attitude of the forces
themselves.

A SOUTHERN RECRUIT FOR BRYAN
AND SEWALL.

1t was announced by telegraph a few
days ago that the Atlanta Journal,
Secretary Hoke Smiths paper had de-
termined to support Bryan and Sewall.
The Journal with the editorial an
nouncement of this fact is now at
hand. 1t is rather a curious article,
and it is very evident that with much
effort the Journal gives its adherence
to the Democratic nominees, the real
and only trouble being the financial
plank Of the Chicago platform. Other
parts of the platform that by some
have been deemed radical to the verge
Of revolution, it fully endorses. 1t
says that it has advocated an income
tax; it has advocated the protection of
the people from trusts and pools
through a stricter control by the
federal government of the arteries of
commerce; it has advocated the en-
largement of the powers of the inter
state commerce commission for the
control of railroads; it has advocated
the arbitration of differences between
corporations engaged in interstate
commerce and their employees; it has
opposed the importation of foreign
pauper labor; it has represented the
interests of the great masses of the
people and has sought their protection
against unjust legislation.
With like frankness it says it has
with earnestness and from deep con-
viction opposed the free and unlimited
coinage of silver at 16 to 1; it acknowl-
edges that it fought and labored to
have it's financial views incorporated
in the national Democratic platform,
but that it made it's fight inside the
party and not by threats to go outside
Of party lines. 1t acknowledges defeat
and accepts it. 1t says the issue in
November will be between the Repub-
lican and Democratic parties-between
Mckinley and Bryan-and that no
other ticket viii have a chance for
success, and to vote for an Independent
ticket would be really ito take to the
woods" and further that the Journal
has never yet sought the woods and
it condemns such a course now.
The only thing it finds in the Re
publican platform to commend is its
financial plank. After reviewing the
things that the Republican party IA
vors. it end%its article as follows:
In this condition of affairs the Jour
nal believes it is the part of patriotism
and wisdom to remain inside the Dem
ocratic party.
Especially is this true in the south.
The Democratic party has been the
constant friend of our section, while
the Republican party has been its bit
ter and relentless enemy.
After careful elaboration, while we
cannot endorse all of the platform
adopted at Chicago, we have deter
mined to give an earnest support to
the Democratic nominees.
After all it appears that the deter
mining factor in influencing it to sup
port Bryan and Sewall was a purely
local one, but an influence that has
always been most potent in the politics
of the south. But we do not care for
the reason of its support so long as it
is given to the nominees of the Chicago
convention. It's influence in Georgia
is great and we are glad that it is on
the right side.

RED off into the camp of its enemy and
the enemy of the nation Let every,
real American formerly a member of
that party leave its ranks.
There is a good deal in that OF what
is termed in the wild and woody west
rot" We will not say that the Rev.
Macarthur was not sincere in what he
said, for that only the Searcher Of
Hearts can know, but we do say that
his convictions were uttered in the
most sensational language, such Ian
guage as the degnagogue is wont to
use when vast crowds listen to him.
He is entirely mistaken when he says
that the historic Democratic party was
not in control at Chicago. 1t really
does seem as though some pulpits
could not be silent, though it would
no doubt be better if they were.
Today the Rev. DR.. Macarthur is to
preach on "Anarchism and American
ISM" 1t is very much to be hoped that
Horace will keep his seat.

SILVER AND THE PULPIT.

There is much similarity between
some preachers and some actors in
that they will do anything to attract
attention, and be in the public eye.
1t always indicates a cheap man
whether or not he wears a cheap coat
Last Sunday the Rev. Dr. Macarthur,
of the Calvary Baptist church, of West
Fifty-seventh street, New York, preach
ed a sermon on the financial issue. The
title was Christian Patriotism and
the Church Platform"
He made no apology for introducing
politics into the pulpit, further than to
say that Christian patriotism was men
aced by the dishonesty inherent in the
financial plank of the Chicago plat
form, and social order was threatened
by the Nominations of the Altgelds
and the Tillmans, who dictated the
declarations for anarchic unrest"
The introduction was worthy CT that
which followed: "a grave political
crisis is upon the nation said DR.. Nc
Arthur. when the first gun was fired
from Sumter the unity and the perpe-
tuity of the nation was at stake. Now
the Chicago platform threatens the
honor of the nation, and so imperils it's
perpetuity. 1t would be better that the
nation should cease to be than live to
be a by-word and reproach among the
honorable nations Of the earth. The
party which constructed the Chicago
platform was not really the historic
Democratic party. The party was COM
pletely captured by elements to which
it catered in the past and which now
have become it's master.
1.-THE Christian pulpit cannot be ST.
lent when the honor of America is men
aced. 1t is proposed to set class against
class, to rob one class to enrich an
other class, but the practical outcome
will be to impoverish all classes alike

Scots wha dwell in Scotia dear,
ScotSmen scattered far and near,
Friends of Burns, come shed a tear
To his memory.
Sad the fate of Scotia's bard,
Weary was his lot and hard,
Even to the cauld kirkyard-
There frae sorrows free
Hear his voice, a century still
Echo yet frae glen and hill,
Sounds that soothe and charm and
thrill.
Sweet the melody.
Master of a noble art,
smile or tear to start
Singing straight frae heart to heart
Such his mastery.
Now on this memorial day
Praise him in a heartfelt lay
Lads and lassies while you may,
Sing this dirge wi me:
Lang as modest daisy grows,
T1nistles guard 'gainst Scotia's foes,
Bonnie Doom sac sartly flows,
Lives his memory!

1t is easy to believe the report that the
people of France are laughing at Spain's
continued official statements of victories
in Cuba. The absurdity of these false
declarations is especially apparent to the

armies met with similar unbroken sue
cess in the Franco-Prussian war, Napo-
leon would have occupied Berlin and the
Commune would never have become
part of French history. They decline t.
