BRYAN HOPEFUL.
SAYS -Four Years Time Will Show
the People that Bimetallism is
the Winning Card.

New York, Nov. 3O.-In the De-
cember of the North American Re-
view, published today, Mr.. Bryan
has an article in which he discusses
the result of the election as Affect
ing the status Of the silver ques-
tion. The issue on which the cleo
tion turned he describes as the
greatest issue ever submitted to
the American people in time of
peace" The declaration Of the
Chicago convention in favor Of the
free coinage of silver forced upon
the people of this country a study
of the money question in general,
and within the last four months
more people have been simultane-
ously engaged in its consideration
than ever before in the history of
the world.
The result of this study Mr.. Bryan
declares to be temporary defeat,
but permanent gain for the cause
of bimetallism. Mr.. Bryan regards
it as a significant fact that the sill
yer sentiment was strongest where
the question had been longest con
Sidered; that is to say, in the West
and South. In Mr. Bryan's. opinion,
the cause of bimetallism made more
rapid progress than any cause ever
made in such a short time. He ex-
presses his assurance that the elec-
tion can be by no means regarded
as a conclusive settlement OF the
question at issue.
The advocates of free coinage are
convicted, he says, that they are
laboring in behalf Of a large major
ity of the people, not only here, but
throughout the world, and accord
ing to the writer they propose to
continue their contest, confident
that four more years of experience
will convince many who have thus
far resisted arguments.
This confidence, Mr.. Bryan says,
is confirmed by the history of recent
elections. Mr.. Greely was defeated
in 1872 and yet Mr. Tilden was elec-
ted in 1876. Mr.. Blaine was defeat
ed in 1884, but Mr. Harrison was
elected in 1888. The Republican
victory of 1888 was followed by the
Democratic victory of 1890 and the
election of President Cleveland two
years later. Mr.. Bryan cOunsels
the successful party to remember
that many thousands of good Re-
publicaus have heen held to their
party this year by the pledge that
it will try to secure international
bimetallism.
In reference to the gold standard
Democrats, Mr. Bryan feels assured
that they cannot do as much IN
1900 as they have done this year.
They have declared their affection
for Democratic principles, while
they spared no effort to secure the
success of the opposing ticket.
"They cannot" he says, disguise
themselves again,

COMPLIMENTARY WORDS.
A COmmendatory Letter of Praise To
One Of Our ToWnsmen.

One Of Our ToWnsmen.
We see from a late issue, Of the
New Boston Herald, a letter writ
ten to Mayor W. C. Hardin, who
was the chairman Of the Bowie
county Democracy during the cam
paign Just passed over there, from
lJ. W. Blake, chairman of the Dem
ocratic Executive Committee of
the State OF Texas, compimenting
chairman Hardin on the great vic
tory and large vote cast, in the
county for the Democratic ticket.
When Mayor Hardin was selected
to tll this important place, it was
said Bowie county was Populist
stronghold, that the Populist would
elect their ticket by great major
lity, and, it did seem for a while,
that such would be the result, but
he put on his fighting clothes, or
gauized his forces and made battle
and the result shows for itself Mr..
Hairston who was a strong man,
the Populist considered for cOun-
| ty Judge, received l 1888 votes while
Jones his opponent, on the Demo
cratic ticket receive 2,68I; Morris,
the populist candidate was said TO
be the strongest man on the ticket
and he was beat by 924 votes.
This good showing was all from
the excellent work Of Mayor Hardin
and we feel like he is deserving of a
notice at our hands, and hope he
will reveive the notice in the spirit
it is given. The letter from Mr..
Blake reads as follows:
MEXIA, TEXAS Nov. 20, 1896.
Hon. W. G. HARDIN,
Texarkana, Texas.
My. DEAR SIR:-Allow me to
thank you for the hearty co-opper-
alton given me during the cam
Ipaign. The result in your coun ty
is indeed gratifying and speaks well
for your ability as an organizer and
/ you and the members of your COM
mittee deserve and grateful thanks
of'your people,
beg to suggest that you keep
up your county organization and
whenever an enemy of Democracy
lnvades your county, that you send
your best local speakers to meet
him, The opposition has announc-
ed the intention of Immediately re-
organizing for the campaign of
1898 and we should be in a position
to thwart their plans.
The recent campaign demonstrat-
ed the value of Democratic clubs
thorough organization
When I can serve you, l shall be
glad to do so.
Yours very truly,

Chairman,

THE GERMAN EMPIRE.

The celebration of the 25th ami
versary OF the German empire last
week calls attention to the growth
and prosperity OF this great nation
of Europe. The day was generally
observed as a holiday and in Ber-
lin Emperor William made pa,
cifc speech, expressing his heartfelt
thanks for the great benefits which
the past quarter OF a century had
conferred upon the empire, recalling
memories of the period which called
the empire into existence and VOW
ing to continue the work which his
grandfather, William |, had begun.
His majesty especially mentioned the
merits of Prince Bismarck in connec-
ton with the creation OF the empire,
declaring that his reward could not
be too great. He promised to work
increasingly to complete the internal
institutions of the empire and to
strengthen the bonds which united
the German races. Germany, he said
instead OF being in danger from other
states, will continue in the future, as
in the past, a strong pillar of peace.
The emperor, after concluding his re-
marks in the white hall, swore a
solemn oath over a banner 200
years old to guard the empires safe
ty at home and abroad, upon the
principle of one empire, one people
and one God.
The most surprising part of his adj
dress was his tribute to Prince
Bismarck, whose part in making the
empire what it is today the emperor
has tardily recognized European
papers and statesmen regard the
emperor's speech as the most re-
markable one he has ever made and
are loud in its praises.

would probably be obeyed. If only
the powers could trust each other
for FIVE years, every one would be
astonshed to find how simple
problem this Eastern question might
prove to be. But there would have
to be, first, self-denying ordinance
binding all the powers to seek no
private ends and to respect the integ-
rity Of the Ottoman dOminions; and
secondly, the governing Turk would
have to be resolutely reduced to his
proper position as constable for Eu-
rope, instead 70 being allowed to for
