MIR. Bryan,s Farewell.

Mr.. Bryan gave out last Friday state
ment to his followers in which he says that
"The friends of bi-metalism have not been
vanquished; they have only been over
Gomez They believe that the gold standard
is a conspiracy of the money changers
against the welfare of the human race, and
until convinced of their error they will
continue their warfare against it," He
then goes on to charge that the election
was carried by the threats of money-lend-
ers at home and abroad, by the coercion
practiced by employers of labor, and by
'the enormous campaign fund" contributed
by trusts and monopolies. But 1900 is not
far away and by that time things will have
got so bad and the evils of the gold stand
ard will have become so apparent that we
shall have free coinage "without waiting
for the aid or consent of any other ma
tion."
The putting out of such a jeremiad is a
remarkable performance for a defeated
candidate, but it is in keeping with Mr..
Bryan's methods ever since his nomina-
tion. 1t is a final appeal to whatever of
ignorance, prejudice and discomfort exist
among ''the masses" to which he has so
diligently addressed himself. The thous-
ands of mills, factories and workshops all
over the country which only waited to be
assured of Mr.. Bryan's defeat before start
ing up, and which are now in full activity,
give the best possible answer to his reck-
less assertions
