NO .SECTIONILTSM

The nomination of General Bucknel
| Of Kentucky for vice president by the
national democratic party will be re-
garded by the country as another evi-
dence of the subsistence of sectional
| feeling between the north and south
| and as such will be welcomed by all pa
| triotic citizens. In his letter of accept
ance Major Mckinley said: 'The coun-
try is to be congratulated upon the al
| most total Obliteraton of the sectional
| ism which for many years marked the
| division of the United States into slave
and free territory and finally threa tened
| its partition into two separate govern
mcnts by the dread ordeal of civil war
The era of reconciliation, so long and
earnestly desired by General Grant and
many other great leaders, north and
south. has happily come and the feeling
of distrust and hostility between the
sections is everywhere vanishing, let us
hope never to return. Nothing is better
calculated to give strength to the nation
at home. increase our power and inf1u-
cnce abroad and add to the permanency
and security of our free institutions
than the restoration of cordial relations
between the people of all sections and
parts of our beloved country This is
the language of patriotism.
But while the republican and the ma
tional democratic parties are thus man
ifeSting their desire to Danish forever
whatever remains Of the old spirit of
sectionalism, the political element rep
resented by Mr. Bryan is seeking to
create sectional antagonism Watson
the populist candidate for vice pres
ident, has frankly declared that the
south and west are engaged in Il contest
against the north and east and Mr..
Bryan himself has throughout his pub
lie career contributed as much as any
other man in the country to the pro
motion of this sectional feeling. He has
lost no opportunity to infame popular
feeling in the west against the east and
in an inSidious way he is doing this
still. The contrast between the repub-
lican candidate and the popocratic can
didate in this respect is most marked
and ought to command the thoughtful
consideration of all men who believe
that the perpetuity of the union and of
our free institutions depends upon the |
maintenance of fraternal relations be- !
tween all sections and parts of our
country.

The Financial News, London. August 13.
We have received numerous letters from
American correspondents containing what
purports to be editorials from The Financial
News and which have been reprinted in
various western papers as campaign liter
ature." One Omaha paper prints an article
stating it is from the London Financial
News of March 10" No such article was
ever printed by us and its whole tenor is
directly opposed to the view we have taken
of the effect of free silver in the United
States. So far from advocating free silver
coinage have persistenty pointed out
that 1t spells reputation and the with
drawal of all European capital.
NOTE-For weeks from February to Au-
gust of this year Mr. Bryan's paper, the
Omaha World-Herald paraded at the top
of it's editorial column the cutting here re-
produced credited tc lie London Financial
News and purporting to explain the ad-
vantages the United States would reap from
the adoption of 16 to l free coinage. This
item was first printed by the World-Herald
February l. 1896 while William j. Bryan
was it's editor and was kept standing both
during and since his editorship. Suspecting
a forgery, Mr.. A. C. Platt Of Lincoln sent
the cutting from the World Herald to the
editor of the Financial News at London and
promptly received the reply. a facsimile Of
which is given above. The original letter
is in the possession Of the editor Of The Bee.
