FROM OUR NEXT PRESIDENT.

THE following, taken from the
speech of Hon. VIM. J. Bryan,
before the Chicago convention, is
exactly to the point and ever elector
should give it careful study:
If they ask us here why we say
more on the money question than
we say on the tariff question, l
reply that if protection has slain its
thousands the gold standard has
slain its tens ofthousands. If they
ask us why we did not embody all
these things in our platform which
we believe, we reply that when we
have restored the money of the con-
stitution all other necessary re-
forms will be possible, and that
until that is done, there is no re-
form that can be accomplished.

Here is the best opportunity of
all; 80 acres finely improved land
lying next to the Montezuma canal;
40 acres well set in alfalfa; balance

4 shares of Montezuma water. This
farm lies near Solomonville, and is
the greatest bargain ever offered in
the valley, at $500 per acre; this

Graham guardian., 1896-07-24

We say to you that you have
made, too limited in its application
the definition of business men.
The man employed for wages is as
much a business man as the en-
ployer. The attorney in a country
town is as much a business man as
the lawyer in the great metropolis.
The merchant at the crossroads
is as much business man as the
merchant in New York. The
farmer who goes forth in the morn
ing and tolls all day, begins in the
spring and tolls all summer and by
application of brain and muscle,
adds to the natural resources of
this country, and creates wealth is
as much a business man as the
man who grows up on the board
of trade and bets on the price of
grain. The miners who go 100
feet into the earth, or climb 1000
feet upon the cliffs and bring forth
from their hiding places the pre-
clous metals to be poured into the
channels Of trade, are as much
| business mon as a few financial
magnates who in a back room cor
ner the money of the world.

We come to speak for this
broader class Of men. All, my
friends, we say not one word
against those who live upon the
Atlantic coast, but those hardy
pioneers who braved all the dan
gers of the wilderness, who made
the desert to blossom as rose;
those pioneers away out there
rearing their children near natures
heart, where they can mingle their
voices with the voices of the birds;
out there where the brave have
erected school houses for the edu-
cation of their young, and churches.
in which they praise their Creator.
and cemeteries, where sleep the
ashes of their dead, are as deserv'
ing Of the consideration Of this

waiting for the aid or consent of

tend to it's own business?" l will

clare their political independence
Of every other nation on earth.
Shall we, their descendants, when
we have grown to 70,000,000 de-
clare we are less Independent than
our forefathers? No, my friends,
it will never be the judgment of
the people. Therefore we care not
on what lines the battle is fought.
If they say bimctallism is good;
but we cannot have it until some
nation helps us, we reply instead
Of having the gold standard be-
cause England has, we shall restore
bimetallism and let them have BIZ
metallism because the United

out and openly defend the gold
standard as a good thing we shall

PLOTTED I,REACHERx

Undoubtedly Mr.. Addick's man
Roberts was disturbed last week over
bis libel suit which by some swearing
in court he finally got put off, or he
had not unwittingly admitted so plainly
that his employer had plotted treachery
to Mckinley. After claiming for Mr..
Addicks everything that has been done
for the Republican party IN the State
for years, which claims are fully ninety
per cent. falsehood. he said in Satur-
days issue of the estate Sentinel: :"
"This, however, does not adequately
describe the condition Of things in
Delaware, or lightly state what we
have lost, or still further to show the
true relation of Mr.. Addicks to Della
wares politics. 1t was his leadership
alone which gave the electoral vote to
Major Mckinley. He was the one
man who could have prevented that
result, and that he did not do it is the
greatest proof of political fidelity and
integrity this State has ever witnessed. !"
Was ever contemplated treachery
more brazenly stated? Every voter
knows that in order to save the vote of
the State to Mckinley the Republicans
accepted Electors Shaw and Wilson
after the Union Republicans had re-
fused every compromise. Threats were
made by the Addicksites that they
would cut their own electors if they
were accepted by the Republicans,
which threats the s'Sentineln in its
flattery Of Mr.. Addicks comes forward
to prove were contemplated of execu-
tion by Mr.. Addicks. If the "Senti-
mel" means anything it means that.
And yet the Republicans of Delaware
and of the Nation, think CT it are
called upon to fall down and worship
''the one man" who could have defeat
ed the election # the Mckinley elec-
tors, because he did not do it. Why
should he do it? That Addicks did not
give the State to Bryan, after he had
contemplated it, "is the greatest proof
Of political fidelity and integriety this
State has ever witnessed" Great
Scottl!
What do the honest Republicans Of
the State think of this proposition, the
Republicans who put faith in tie
claims of the Addicksites and voted
the Union Republican ticket in part or
in whole? The answer is plain. All
that is needed is the quotation from
the Sentinel" the Addicks organ,
and honest Republicans cannot disa-
gree.

WHAT OF THE FUTUREs

Those followers of the golden pa
ternal of mule who went about dur
ing the last campaign with their cheeks
bulged because of the fullness of their
mouths, crying anarchists anarchist
are the same men who are now boast
ing that they will not submit to the
decisions Of the courts unless those
decisions shall he in their favor. They
are the same men who on election day
went into various polling places and by
force and riot prevented the freemen
of the State from exercising the right
of sufferage which is granted them by
the constitution and the law. They
are the men who would substitute force
for law, riot for peace, and standing in
the market places aud highways cry out
anarchists anarchists in order that
the attention of the populace may be
diverted from their diabolical attempts
to obtain place and power through
corruption and disobedience of the
laws of the State. ."-Lewes Pilot. "
Suppose it were admitted that all
the "Pilot'' says is true. Candor
would compel an admission that the
partisan friends Of the "Pilot" are
equally guilty and have been for years.
The difficulty is that the "Pilot" shut
ting its eyes to the ;wickedness within
its own household, has persissently
done SO, hence the conditioned affairs Of
to-day. The "Pilot"is more or less re-
sponsible for all this since an outspoken
public press condemning wrong in
friend and foe alike wonld have pre-
vented the evils. Now what of the
future ? Is it not time to pause and to
consider?

HOW IT'S DONE.

''In one Congressional district in
Virginia, where the law requires the
voter to mark with ink the names of
the candidates on the blanket ballot for
whom he desires to vote, the Demo-
cratic election officers had bottle of
good ink for those who voted the DEM
ocratic ticket, and another, largely
made up of mucilage, for the Republi-
cans. When the Republican folded his
ticket it stuck together so that the
opening of it mutilated it in such a
way that it was thrown out. In one
district over 1900 Republican ballots
were thus destroyed"
The above is from the Indianapolis
Journal" one of the most reliable
papers in the country. 1t is presumably
a true statement. 1t shows how elec-
tions are carried in the south. 1t ex-
plains solid south. Where are the
liberties we boast when our elections
are such a farceP

TOWN LIBRARIES.

The teachers of New Castle county
in the address of welcome to them at
their Instituteiast week were told of the
Town Library in the the New Eng
land town and the statement was
made that in Massachusetts, one
hundred dollars are appropriated by
every town annually to the purchase
Of new books for the library. Della
ware towns have not ached that
stage and in fact the great majority of
them have no public libraries. This is
matter that may well challenge the at
teDtion of teachers, parents and the
general public. Rev. Mr.. Moore in his
address to the teachers facetiously sug-
gested that they do not press too hard,
the inquiry as to the public library in
Middletown. 1t is more than possible
that our visitors would have to ac-
knowledge that their own communities
are not better off. This should not ta,
Middletown should have its library
and every other town and village in
the State. How can they get them?
Books cost money, not great deal.
but to sustain library costs consider
able and how to get the library started
is the question. OF course more
mo Dey is wasted in friolities every
year in every town 10 start several
libraries therein, but people will spend
their own, and often that which is
MT their OVID, as they pleafe. Ia
some places wealthy man establish and
endow libraries, but not SO in Dela-
ware. There is room for Improvement
in this direction. Who will set the
example?
Books are educators and the teachers
need their assistance. How would it
do for the teachers to agitate this
question and perhaps some wealthy
Delawarean whose soul is not big
9 1ough to cor tribute while living may
be brought to the point of adding q
legacy in the will for library for the
the general public. Agitation has
done many wonderful things. Per-
haps others have more practical and
timely suggestions-if SO let them be
made through the paper. Every town
should have its publicsljbrary and none |
are more interested than the teachers,
