SOWING THE WIND,

Evidently the campaign cant of the
successful party is to be kept up in
definitely. Every citizen who believes
in the restoration of silver to its former
place in the currency is still to be class
ed as repudiator and enemy of the
national honor; every citizen who ven.
lures to hold a disappearing opinion of
decision of the supreme court is to
continue an anarchist; every citizen
who thinks that government by injunc-
ton is an innovation dangerous to
liberty, is to remain an advocate of free
riot.
What insufferable humbug all this is!
The men who utter it don't believe it,
but they expect to make others less in
telligent than themselves do so, and
hereafter get their votes through false
pretense for the conservation of abuses
and the protection Of the privileges of
the predatory rich.
The scheme has worked well this
year, but to persist in it as permanent
policy is short sighted. The 100000
citizens who voted for Bryan, bimetal-
lism and democratic government are
quite as intelligent as the other millions
who voted for Mckinley, the single
gold standard and government by the
allied financial interests of the country.
In the matter of patriotism, of regard
for the national honor, we will back
the average democratic voter against
the average trust millionaire any day.
To deny intelligence and patriotism to
nearly half the citizens of the United
States, as the gold press did before the
election, and as it is doing now when
the election is past, will not advantage
the party in whose behalf this prepros-
ferrous insult is offered. The common
sense OF all men is forced into revolt,
ana in those who are the subjects of the
insult a resentment is inspired which
intensities their loyalty TO their politi-

cal convictions. To inflame anger and
deepen rancor in our politics appears to
be the settled purpose of the Republi-
can party.
No one who knows the people of the
United States doubts that the masses
vote according to their view of what is
right. The average citizen who sup
ported Mckinley did so in the sincere
belief that it would be better for the re-
public to have him instead OF Bryan in
the white house. But nobody believes
that the millionaires-the Morgans, the
Pullmans, the Huntingtons and the
Carnegies-who rushed as one man to
the aid of Mckinley, were animated by
unseltish motives. without the aid of
the millionaires and the trusts the re-
publican candidate could not have been
elected. That is not to be denied
Neither is it to be denied that the mil
lionaires and trusts regard the victory
as their own, nor that they will be con-
trollingly influential in shaping the
policy of the new administration. That
these men in fighting for the main
tenance Of the gold standard and for
the defeat of Bryan, who had declared
war upon the trusts, is as clear as that
they have been made happy by the re-
suit. 1t is easy to understand that men
should think only of their pockets when
they go into politics. If they are
cynically frank about it they excite
more contempt than indignation. But
when such men add hypocrisy to sordid
selfishness and proclaim that their de-
votion to their pockets is in reality de-
votiOn to their country's welfare and
the nations honor they rouse the i'm
patient scorn of honest people. And
when these pocket patriots denounce all
who oppose them for the sake of the
common good as less disinterested, less
honorable, less patriotic than them
selves, they make demand on the pa
tience of honest men that is trife too
heavy. There are few citizens who
care to listen to lectures on morals and
patriotism from Carnegie, Hunting
ton or Pullman. Yet it is persons of
this class, who stand for nothing but
greed, dominate to-day the political
party which has the nerve to deny to
the democratic masses of the United
States the possession of patriotism and
common honesty.
If the gold standard were good for the
public, the millionaires and trusts
would not be its foremost champions,
and if it could be defended by argu.
ments that would convince the thought
full and impartial its advocates would
not need to deal exclusively in insults
to their opponents. The gold standard
is a fraud. 1t taxes the many who
have little for the benefit of the few
who have much. That is why those
who profit by it are impelled to employ
cries instead of reasons for preservation

time by better instructed people,
