fraudulent bankruptcy. simultaneously our
community would lose Its ability to pay taxes.
all imports suddenly ceasing. Borrow, the
Government could not, for no one
would lend; even if the administra-
ton were not bound by the plat
form to issue no bonds in time of peace, it
could not raise money, for no one would trust
1T. Then all Government employees, and with
them the employees of the States and the muni-
cipalities-the Judges, the police, the army, the
navy, the pensioners-would have their means
of subsistence cut off. The general paralysis OF
business would at the same time cause the
stopping of all factories, shut down all mills,
close all avenues of useful employment
Famine, compared with which all those of
which history has record would appear as
plenty, would reign throughout the land.
Fathers would witness their families suffer-
ing the pangs OF hunger and nowhere to look
for food. Thousands and tens of thousands
Desolation would spread from one end to the
other of the country. The Government could
give no suceor. The paper money which it
would hurry TO issue would, like the note of
any fraudulent bankrupt,be utterly worthless.
Its promise to pay would be deemed
hollow mockery. In vain would we
look for help toward foreign ma
tions. A dynamiter mutilated by his own
bomb can hardly expect sympathy. A pirate
sailing under the black flag can expect no aid.

The decision that they have no legal place
on the official ballot has bereft them of
every hope for success, and we'll nigh
snuffs out their ambition to defeat the
regular nominees OF the party to which
they have hitherto avowed allegiance.
Some of these nominees will doubtless
accept the present opportunity to retire
from contest which must inevitably end
disastrously for them and their friends.
AS for the rank and file, members of the
Republican party who have been tempo
rarily misled by specious pretensions on
the part OF the aforementioned would-be
bosses, they will quite naturally return to
the party where their sympathies and in
terests lie.
This prospect gives promise of Republi-
can harmony and success on the Sd OF
next month, despite the persistent efforts
on the part OF a few individuals to con-
tinue the contentious and schisms within
the party organization.

DEMOCRATIC LOSSES.

As the reports come in from Georgia
and Florida, it is disclosed that the Demo-
Gratis have suffered heavy losses even in
these States where the Republicans had
no expectation of success Moreover,
there is reason TO believe that had the vote
been cast and counted fairly the losses
would have been greater than are now
shown, and bourbon Democracy would
have been shattered in its strongnolds.
It requires no great acumen to see what
the falling off of the Democratic vote in
Georgia and Florida means. Conserva-
tive Democrats have refused to follow the
party into the Bryanite camp, and middle
of-the-road Populists, indignant at the
treatment Of Watson, have insisted upon
maintaining their party organization in
the State as recourse for the people
against the domination of Democratic
bosses.
The motives which determined the
votes of conservative Democrats and stall
wart Populists in Georgia and Florida will
be potent to greater or less extent among
the same classes of voters throughout the
Union. 1t is not mere coincidence that
in strong Republican States the Repub-
llCdu NOtc ndS lHCISdsSQ, NnI6 III SLTOuR
Democratic States the Democratic vote
has diminished. There must be some
widespread and strongly felt impulse to
move the voters of Vermont and Arkansas,
or Maine and Georgia, in the same way.
Nor is it difficult to determine the nature
OF that impulse. It is simply the revolt OF
the business instinct Of the people against
Democratic free trade and Bryanite free
silver.
If anything had been needed to give
assurance of a Republican victory the fall
ing off in the Democratic vote in Arkan-
sas, Florida and Georgia would give it. A
proportionate Democratic loss in other
States will give the entire North and West
to Mckinley. Even the border State may
be counted in the Republican column.
Democracy and Populism have fused in

CAMPAIGN LITERATURE.
What the Republican National
Committee Is Doing In This
Campaign of Education.
Chicago Times Herald.

CnlcagO llmeS- Herald.
One hundred ana fifty million documents on
money, the tariff and the other issues of the
campaign, enough reading matter to supply
every man, woman and child in the United
States with two documents each have been
distributed by the Republic National Com
mittee from the Chicago headquarters. All of
the great printing presses in Chicago could not
print halt of them in month. Their aggre-
gate weight is 1900 tons. Sixty great freight
cars would be required to haul them from one
town to another.
These figures are sufficient to show clearly
that the present Presidential campaign is a
campaign of education as no other in the his
tory of American politics has been. The
Democrats have not distributed as much mat
ter, but they have been also active, and enough
has been distributed by both parties to enable
every one desirous OF knowledge to be fully
acquainted with the issues.
Three floors of big building on Wabash
avenue are occupied BY Captain Thomas H.

ton. Under him employed large force

Sometimes Captain Mckee has had as many

the gulf. All the work IS done in union Offices
and every document bears the typographical

Democracy meant disaster to the farmers OF
Nebraska just as it did to the farmers in every
otner State. After three years of Democracy
and couple of years of the advance step to-

farmers around his home:

adoption of the free-trade policy that Bryan
voted for-some more and some less. The
average loss to every Nebraska farm since 1898,
through the depreciation of the value of its
livestock, has been 1861 so. With free silver
perhaps Bryan will refund this loss that he
voted for Then, again. perhaps he won't.
Farmers should make sure upon this point be-
fore they vote for Bryan, Bryanisnf, more free
trade and still cheaper livestock.

this country, no matter what they have
thought in the past, who will not now
say that free trade, or so-called tariff
reform, has proved by the experience Of
the past four years to be a signal and
disastrous failure. 1t has failed, utterly
failed, in every prophecy, promise and
expectation. 1t has not secured single
thing that its advocates said would fol-
low its adoption-not one. More, it has
not served a single American interest.
1t has served the interests of other ma

benefit to the American peopIe.-Mc-

A SILLY PRETENSE,

In the parade of the Bryanites at Chicago
on Friday night, we are told that num-
Der of men marched with their faces
masked. for fear that they would be dis
charged if they were recognized by their
employers. A sillier freak than this has
never been known in the history of Ameri-
can politics. 1t could have originated only
in the mind of man utterly ignorant OF
the courage and self-respecting manhood
OF the American people. 1t would have
been an insult to workingmen if it had
not been too silly to be taken seriously.
1t has been a common cry with the
Democrats that the people were bribed
and bought by rich corporations, and that
cry was foolish enough, as all the world
knows. The new cry of coercion carries
folly to the verge of lunacy. There is no
intimidation in any State north of Mason
and Dixon's line. Even in the Southern
States it is practiced only to compare
lively small extent, and exercised only
over negroes, who are too poor, too ignor-
ant and too much subject yet to the in
huences of slavery to know how to assert
their rights and to maintain them.
In the North and West there is free bal
lot ana fair count. No American en-
ployer coerces his labor, tries to coerce it
or even desires to coerce it. 1t is safe to
challenge the orators and organs of the
fusion party to name one single employ er
who has made or shown signs of making
the slightest attempt to intimidate his
employees in any manner whatever.
The Bryan campaign is, in fact, rapidly
degenerating into farcicai and almost
fraudulent affair. Deserted by the ablei
and more self-respecting leaders of the
Democratic party the fusion managers
have sunk from low to lower levels at
every stage of the canvass. Incapable of
argument incapable of an effective man
agement OF the affairs of the party. they
have come at last to resort in National
affairs to styles of electioneering that
would be a jest and byword in ward pol
itics. The charge of bribing American
workingmen was bad enough. The
charge of coercion is idiocy.
The San Francisco call., 1896-10-11
RESPECT FOR LAW.

One of the strongest and worthiest quail
ties of the American people is their re-
spect for law. Without that quality in
herent and dominant in the National
character it would be impossible to main
tain republican form of government.
This is so self-evident that all true pa
triots regard with more than ordinary
concern every evidence of a tendency,
either in the press or on the stump, to ex-
cite the minds of the people against the
courts, or to weaken the popular respect
for the established law of the land.
In view of the incessant attacks now
being made by the Bryanites against the
Supreme Court of the United States it is
in the highest degree important that all
Republicans and conservative Democrats
should be emphatic and united in uphold
ing the authority of the courts and ST.
lencing those who either directly or by in
sinuation endeavor 10 weaken that au-
thority by traducing the Judges.
We have in our own City an evil of this
kind to condemn and guard against. The
action of the Supreme Court of the State in
deciding questions arising under the elec-
ton laws has necessarily been adverse to
one of the parties in each contest. In
several instances the defeated parties in
slead OF submitting to the decision with a
proper respect for the law have sought to
distort the effect of the decisions on the
public mind by unjustly and unfairly
criticizing the Justices who made them,
No intelligent man sincerely questions
the honesty of our Supreme Court, and
certainly none should question it for the
sake of artisan or factional discomfort.
The decisions given have been impartial.
and express the judgment of trained legal
minds on the issues before the court. 1t
is presumptuous in men who are not
lawyers and who speak without either
professional or official responsibility to
