Each wore n striped suit, and had an

others worked with pick and shovel.

If -

If we are right IN the position we have
taken, if the democratic party is right in its
platform, then the man who does not stand
upon that platform, no matter how good a
democrat he may have been before, is no
democrat now.-W. J. Bryan.
But suppose we are not Fright IN the
position we have taken" and the party
is not Fright IN its platform" are we
to assume on the other hand that "the
democrat who does not stand upon
that platform" is still a democrat
If so-and there is no other con-
clusion available-the Palmer and
Buckner people are by confession the
simon pure, unwashed and unterrified
locofocos of the realm.
But, Mr.. Bryan, no statesman gives
free and unlimited employment to a
word so little and yet so destructive of
party logic and loyalty as ''if."

CheaD Clothing.

1t took the Keyser CIV. Va.) Echo
about four weeks to find out that "the
Echo is right and the JOURNAL, con-
sequently, must be wrong"
After conferences with clothing men
the JOURNAL is satisfied that it either
misunderstood them or typographical
error made the fall of a 500 suit to $50
too great. One says, however, that in
some wooden goods clothing is 33b per
cent. cheaper in others % per cent. in
still others 20 per cent, and that % per
cent. is fair average.
The most the Echo can figure out,
however, is a 10 per cent. reduction,
which induces our clothing men to say
that Keyser merchants should buy
their stocks of goods in Frostburg.
But, of course, the Echo and its mer-
chants will smile at this, hold on to
their 10 per cent. theory and charge the
results of their unskillful buying to
free wool.
In this event, they prove that free
wool has not hurt the manufacturer
very much, who, getting his wool so
per cent. cheaper, still sells his goods
only 10 per- cent. lower.
And that it has not hurt the retail
merchant very materially, who still
places his profit on base reduced
only 10 per cent.
The Echo, like many other super
fetal observers of high tariff. forgets
that "protective' laws make the man
ufacturers the custodians of the wool
growers welfare. No matter how
high the latter may be protected"
the governments bonus, levied on the
consumers, is distributed by those who
'handle" the wool, and no matter how
low the tariff the same men agree that
their own lions share shall not be
disturbed.
1t is still true, therefore, that a re-
duction of % per cent. in the cost of
clothing, due to whatever cause, is a
far better benefaction to 20 millions of
consumers than tax upon them at
that rate for the benefit of compar-
alive few of their number.

"Regularity."

The Cumberland Independent, with a
pardonable penchont for becoming oc
casionally sensational, says:
The following names were published as
vice presidents of the Palmer and Buckner
ratification meeting held in Baltimore on
Saturday night: P. L. Burwell, Daniel
Amman, DR.. George H. Hooking, Capt. John
Sheridan, George d. Landwehr, Frank j.
Mcmahon, j. Benson Oder, all of Allegany
county.
AS stated last week, the last name
does not belong in the list, but that
fact is not material.
The Independent proceeds:
The organization ofths Palmer and Buck
ner meeting proclaimed that it represented
the real, true, original democrats of the
country. Still it is earnestly believed and
has never been denied that every man of
these six vice presidents voted against the
democratic ticket in 1895.
The JOURNAL has never before heard
that the democracy of the votes re-
ferrod to had been impeached.
Consequently, there has never been
anything to deny.
Be that as 1t may, if they all failed
to vote for John E. Hurst, whom the
Independent presumably supported with
the slavishness peculiar to regular
ity," they voted against man who,
after participating in leading ca
pacity in the Chicago convention, now
declines to support either the platform
or nominee of that convention!
For the JOURNALS own part it de
spises regularity" which in nine of
ten instances is the despotism of
minority rule.
Moreover, it is the iron-clad enforce
ment of this domineering, overbearing.
shut-your-mouth principle that keeps
this county and congressional district
hopelessly tied to one party.
1t was the emancipation from a
generation of Acknowledgement which
last year lifted the State into posi-
ton that places both parties upon
their good behavior just where we
want them all the time.
The Independent may endeayor to play
part in the game of factlonal ostra-
cism, but the JOURNAL knows it is in
no position to teach party ethics to
people whose years and experience
place them above the considerations
hieh inspire the roseate ambitions of
use who mistakenly think they can

want you to understand the neces ity of
a financial system which gives the people
enough money to carry on the business of
the country.-Hon. W. J. Bryan.
Suppose the people ''get enough
money to carry on the business of the
country"-how long before the fnan-
ciers will have it "cornered" again
Is 1t not, after all, more a matter of
tact and thrift than of the chances to
handle "more money!" Will not the
financier still accumulate and the
spendthrift be spendthrift still?
One of the fatal fancies of trades
unionism, especially among the un-
skilled, is that which essays to lift the
thriftless to the plane of the pros
porous, the extravagant to the level of
the economical. the lazy to the horizon
of the Industrious.
This cannot be done, and it ought
not to be done. The elevation of the
