In this hour of defeat, the friendly

truehearted Democrats-men and wo-

Democratic party will never have. And
his career does not end with his defeat.
He has not only earned and won the

done that in this campaign which will
yet make him the IDOL of multitudes

him. His career in the American strug-

DIFFERENCES OF OPINION

Mr.. Mckinley is being thrust in be-
the Republican mill with a vengeance
Senator Carter of Montana says Mr.
Hanna's advance agent of prosperity is
pledged to work and pray for interna-
tional binetallism, and Senator Nc
MILAN of Michigan says Mr.. Mckinley
is not only not pledged, as Carter says,
but that he will do nothing whatever
looking to international or any other
kind of bimetallism because the present
gold standard is good enough, and there
is no occasion to disturb it, Senator
Carter insists that the ST Louis plat
form pledges Mckinley to bimetalism
and Senator Mcmillan says it does
nothing of the kind. So there you are.
1t is very evident that the money
plank of the platform was drawn to de-
ceive. and it appears to have completed
its mission with marked success. SEN
claring that Mckinley will give no en-
couragement to a bmetallic scheme.
He says the new president will use the
influence of his official position to re-
tire the greenbacks and give the nation
al banks larger powers and more au-
thority.
Senator Carter says 1t would be a
rank fraud upon the people to retire the
greenbacks and surrender the function
of money-creating to the bankers. But
Carter is right and Mcmillan is right.
The platform is now-you-see-it-an
now-you-don't kind Of a declaration of
purpose, and it is meaningless when to
be meaningless suits the occasion best
Nevertheless. there will be no effor:
to scure bimetallism, and why should
there be? The country, hard tins. the
poverty of the people and the wealth
of the trusts and syndicates are all
upon a gold basis, just where Boss
Hanna started out to put them, and
there they will stay until the people
rise in their sovereign might and
strength and reinstate the constitution
and give it unobstructed play, as the
fathers intended it should have.
