Mckinley is Already Beaten.

Mark Hanna, the Boss of the Syndicate that
owns Mckinley, and who is managing the
Gold Bug campaign, first thought that SIX
millions of dollars would be a sufficient cor
ruption fund. He now thinks 1t will require
twenty millions. 1t will take all of this to
hold the rank and file of the Republican party
in line. but what is he going to do about such
Republicans as Henry W. Cornell, son of En-
Governor A. B. Cornell of New York, who
is working for Bryan; and about H. X. Thur
Der, late Secretary of the National Republi-
can Executive Committee, who is enthusiastic
for BRYAN; and about Judge Parks, of OHIO,
delegate to the convention that nominated
Lincoln, who has repudiated Mckinley and is
for Bryan. and what is he going to do about
the many prominent Republicans Throughout
the country who have declared for Bryan,
who spurn his money. Hanna will find, too,
that thousands of workingmen and farmers in
every state, who have been voting the Repub-
lican ticket for years, will spurn his money.
The people are in earnest in this campaign
and they mean to throw off oppression.
There are indications that Republican states
east of the Ohio, that were supposed TO be
safely moored in the Republican column, are
beginning to rock. They will rock more as
the campaign progresses, and there will be
surprises in the New England States as well
as the North. Mckinley is beaten already.
He will be overwhelmed in November. 1t
will not be a land slide, but an avalanche.

The ADVOCATE surrenders the space usually
allotted to editorial matter 10 two communi-
cations on the issues of the hour. One is from
Col. james G. Berret, of Freedom, who is
now spending much time in consultation with
Senators Jones, German and Stewart and other
Bryan leaders in Washington, and who has
been in the Democratic ranks for sixty years
or more. The other is from Joseph NJ
Parke, Esq, of Westminster, who is in his
eighty-seventh year, and Democrat of the
jackson school, Both of these communica-
tions should be closely read. They are from
men who know what Democracy is and what
patriotism is Both are beyond the time usu-
ally allotted to man. Neither can have as
pirations for the future, and write from sense
of patriotic duty to call the hosts of Democ-
raey and all patriots. who would see the work
of the Fathers of the Republic preserved, to
awake and rescue the country from further
ruin from financial and tax policy that 1t is
proposed to continue by the election of Me-
Kinley. They want the country freed from
the grasp of the money changers and those
who believe is laying the masses under tribute

Let Some One Answer2

We would like some one ofthe distinguished
gold monometallist and calamity howlers, to
explain why the bimetalic system of the
United States was changed in 1873.
Was there any public demand for it in the
United States?
Had there been any discussion of the mat
ter by the press or people?
Had there been any particular discussion OF
it in either honse of Congress? Had there
been any?
If not, why was a monetary system, that
existed from the foundation of the govern
ment, changed? Why was the silver dollar
omitted from the coins of the United States
1t has been charged that ii was conspiracy
conceived by the Bank OF England and en-,
tered into by the money changers in this
country.
This has not been disproved, and we would
like some calamity bowler to explain the
matter.

Judge Parks for Bryan.

CLEVELAND o., Aug. 3-Judge S. C. Parks. who
was delegate TO the First National Convention of
the Republican party, and who has since been an
active Republican, has come out for Bryan. Judge
Parks received his title by virtue of appointment
from President Lincoln as Justice of the Supreme
Court of Idaho.
He resigned this position and was later appointed
to the Supreme Bench Of New Mexico, and by his
own request was transferred to the bench of Wyom-
ing by President Arthur Judge Parks said this
afternoon:
at was an evil day for the Republican party
when il abandoned the financial policy Of its
founder, demonetized silver, defed gold and inau-
gurated the practice Of abusing, beittlng and rd-
culing mine-owners, mining and miners. Asa rule
