A, DEMOCRATS ADVICE.

Hon. Edward J. Phelps of Vermont,
who was Minister to England during
President Cleve!and's first administration.
is out in ringing letter in support of
Major McKinley's candidacy. Mr.. Phelps
does not wish to be understood as having
abandoned the principles and traditions
OF his party, but he regards, as he saws,
the pending Presidential election as pre-
serving the most dangerous crisis that
this country has ever encountered. 1t
does not, in my Judgment, involve any
political controversy nor any question of
the supremacy of party, for such consid-
erations are lost sight of in the far greater
gravity of the situation"
Mr.. Phelps believes it the duty of all
patriotic men to lay aside party pride and
join as one man in the work of saving the
country from the clutches of Organism.
He does not see that there can be any
middle ground between a friend snd a foe
OF the country for patriotic man to stand
upon. He believes the attack of the
Bryans lis not upon the policy but upon
the life of the Nation" Referring to the
attempt of Bryan to set the masses against
the rich" Mr.. Phelps says those who
are independently rich are very few in
proportion to the 10000, 600 of American
people, the vast majority of whom gain
their living by'some form or other of use
full employment. Even the rich are de-
pendent upon the business OF the coun try,
for their wealth chiefly consists in invest
ments in its various industries, and must
speedily perish when they are extin-
guished. That there should be prosperity
IN some OF these empIoyments and not in
others, or among one class of people and
not among others, is impossible, for they
all rest upon a common foundation and
are affected by the same considerations"
Mr.. Phelps sees much danger to the
people in Bryan's candidacy-not because
it is William Jennings Bryan, but because
he is advocating principles of government
so antagonist1c to the spirit of our institu-
tons that were they to prevail the Nation
would very soon reach political, social and
commercial chaos, and therefore he ear
nestly pleads with his fellow Democrats to
forget party and party organization for
the moment and join with those in whose
hands the rights and liberties Of the peo-
pie would be safe, Notwithstanding tney
differ widely with Democrats on certain
economic theories and governmental prac-
tees. No doubt Mr.. Phelps letter will
exert great influence throughout the
East, and it will be felt in the West and
South as well.

VERMONT AND VICTORY.

The news from Vermont this morning
will send thrill of cheer through all Re-
publican hearts in the Union. Her vote
shows that the tidal wave for protection,
patriotism and prosperity is mounting to
even higher level than was reached in
1884, when the free trade Congress was
swept from power and the party that sup
ported it was overwhelmed throughout
the country.
Political experts have noted that when
the Republican majority in the State
election In Vermont preceding Presi-
Dental election exceeds $4,000 the Repub-
hcans carry the Union and elect their
PRESIDENT. When it has fallen below that
amount the Democrats have won. The
State election is therefore always noted
with interest because the vote affords
good basis for calculating the vote to be
cast in November. This year but little
calculation will be needed. Vermont has
gone almost solid for protection and
sound money and led the way to victory.
In the East all is over but the shouting.
On this coast harmony and organization
are all that are needed to bring about the
same assurance of Republican success.
That harmony certainly will not be
lacking from this time on. The vote of
Vermont, while it cheers the hearts of the
loyal, is also challenge to California
Republicans to rise to the occasion
and sweep the fusion ticket into
utter confusion. In every section of
California there should be a COM
plete union of all the friends of
sound finance in opposition to the COM
binatlons that have been made against it.
Vermont has led the way; Maine will
follow before the month closes, and in
Novem Der California will stand with them
for Mckinley and prosperity.

II thought San Antonio was a pretty cosmo-

pretty good this year, and its future LOOKS

the shape OF bounty or imp port duty to enable
