THE sIsTERHooD OF STATES.

The state of Utah cast ter first vote on
Tuesday last. Four years ago six states
entered the electoral college Tor the first
time-the two Dakotas, Montana, Idaho,
Wyoming and Washington. Utah has
followed with a population larger than
the majority of those states at the time
of their admission, and beyond all doubt
New Mexico and Arizona, which are even
now entitled to admission into the
Union, will participate in the president
ial contest of 1900. Oklahoma is also a
candidate for statehood, and it is more
than probable that four years hence the
Union of 45 states with 4i7 electoral
votes will have been enlarged to As with
an electoral college membership of 456.
To even the youngest voter, who re-
calls his school-day enumeration of
"thirty eight states and ten territories, "
the growth of the Union as measured by
the admission of new states must appear
remarkable. Ten years ago the map of
our great country displayed vast region,
extending unbroken from the Mexican
line to the British American border, and
including the larger portion of the terri
tory between the Missouri river and the
Rockies, which knew no sovereignty but
that of federal government. Today, OF
the more than three million square miles
of the United States, exclusive of Alaska,
hardly three hundred thousand are Of
territorial area.
With the dawning Of the twentieth
century only three territories, Alaska,
Indian Territory and the District Of
Columbia, will be remaining outside the
fold. Alaska will, before many years,
undoubtedly, be sovereign state, and
in its vast area and continual growth
there is the making of many common
wealths; but the District of Columbia
will always be territorial jurisdiction as
the seat of the federal government, and
Indian Territory is not even organized,
as yet, under territorial government.

SILVER CLUBS REORGANIzING.

That the bimetallists are more en-
thusiastic now than they were a week
or two ago, is well demonstrated by the
fact that the Canton free silver club will
meet tonight at Culp's rink for the pur-
pose of re organizing for future battles.
The way to win victory in 1900 is to
begin now and keep up the good work
until 1900. This election did not settle
the question by any means. 1t only
measured the strength of the free silver
forces. 1t will be found when the official
returns are in that over 6 1000 900 voters
in the United States registered their
convictions at the ballot box in favor of
silver as standard money. This is not
such bad stagger after all to restore
bimetallism when over a million Demo.
Gratis deserted the party and voted for
Mckinley. Bryan polled more votes by
nearly mi lion than Cleveland did in
1892, so the Democrats have nothing to
be discouraged at the showing they made
All of the Democrats except those that
voted for Palmer and Mckinley accept.
ed bimetallism this time They will all
have to accept it some time because it is
sure to win in the future. There will be
no million Democrats that will vote for
Mckinley or any other Republican can
didate on gold standard platform in
1900, but many of the million Democrats
and many of the many million Republi
cans that supported Mckinley this year
because they thought the gold standard
was right, will have become educated to
bimetallism within the next four years.
Bimetallism in 1900 will carry every
state in the South except possibly Mary.
land and Delaware. 1t will carry every
state West of the Mississippi, and this
will be enough to elect President;
and what of the states between the
Mississippi and the Allegheny noun
tains? Every one Of them is debatable
with more than an even chance that
their electoral votes will be given to the
party that favors bimetallism. We con.
gratulate the free silver club of Canton
that they have emerged from defeat so
quickly and are lining up already for
the great battle which is sure to come.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1896-11-12
DEFIANCE WANTS THE COVER
NOR.

Even now, before the smoke of battle
has cleared away and the echoes of the
shouts of victor are resounding in
our ears, the Democrats show their faith
in the stability of their own belief in their
ultimate success by preparing for the
campaign of 1897.
Next year general assembly will be
elected as well as governor to succeed
Governor Bushnell. The general assemb-
ly will also select a man as U. S. sena-
tor.
The Republican majority in the state
was about cut in two this year and in
looking over the returns we find that the
greater portion of the cut was made
over in the Northwestern part of the
state. Every person over there seems
to be Democrat and good one.
1t is from that section that we hear of
the preparation for the contest next
year, for over there they are politicians
all the year around.
We understand that the friends OF
Hon. j. w. Winn are seriously consider.
ing his name for governor. Mr.. Winn
was member of the 10th and list
general assemblies where he made for
himself state reputation for ability as a
leader and as statesman.
He was the unanimous choice of the
Democratic members of the house foi
leader and the manner in which he dis
charged the duties of the place convinc'
ed all of his great fitness.
Mr.. Winn declined third nomination
because he felt compelled to return tc
his law practice.

REPUBLICAN RESPONSIBILITY

With the election of Mr.. Mckinley as
President with a good majority in con.
gress behind him, one of the greatest
opportunities ever given to political
party both from the standpoint of "poli.
tics" and Ct duty is in the Republicans
hands. The history of affairs since 1888
shows this as plainly as any history
shows anything.
The Republicans were turned out in
1892 because of the iniquity of the force
bill and the passage Of the Mckinley bill,
because the Democrats promised in their
platform and on the stump what public
sentiment had come to demand, a re
turn to revenue tariff and a disappear
ance from the tariff bill, when drawn by
a Democratic congress, of all the otlen-
sive high protective features which the
country had come to believe were a
menace, not an advantage of business.
The Democratic congress, or more
properly the Democratic senate, utterly
failed to live up to their party pledges
and to their party platform. Under the
lead of Messrs German, Brice, Smith and
Hill, the house bill was shorn of all its
revenue features in the senate and came
out as Brice termed it ga grab-bag." For
this the party was defeated at the polls
in 1894, and in large part also the cleo
ton of Mckinley is due to a desire to re-
buke an unfaithful party that failed to
carry out its pledges with the people.
We believe now that to repeal the
Sherman law was mistake; that if Presi.
dent Cleveland had called congress to-
gether in 1898 to revise the tariff as he
originally intended to do, we would not
have been rebuked at the polls so severe.
ly as we were. The Wilson bill as it
passed the house, would have then
passed the senate without much obiec-
ton, for at that time President Cleve-
land had not antagonized so many of
the Democratic senators. Had the Will
son bill been passed in 1898 manufact-
urers would have adjusted themselves to
it at once, and by the fall of 1895 every
thing would have been in smooth run
ming order. The silver agitation would
not have been so strong because all that
the silver men were fighting for was to
retain the Sherman law and the Demo-
Gratis could have gone before the people
on the record of their last administration,
and no party has ever yet been over
thrown in prosperous times.
But the Republicans have now been
voted into power in all the branches of
government. Eastern men will dictate
the policy of the administration. This
is what was to be expected. The Demo.
Gratis could not ask for anything better.
Just watch the votes of the western
states in the coming elections.
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1896-11-12

The principle of bimetallism is as ever
astlng as the rock of Gibraltar, as true
as the law of gravitation. We may not
all have thought so always, but men
never become too old to learn. Many
Rnen who never studied the financial ques-
sion until this campaign have been coz
verted to a sincere faith in the redeeming
merit of bimetallism as she only suffi-
silent and safe foundation for the money
of any nation that would foster the well
fare Of all It's people There are many
ID aces where the people must yet learn
the doctriens of finance. Time will teach
them and once the truth is learned it
becomes fixed conviction. The fight
IN ast and will go on until the cause of
the people succeeds in the full restoration
OF silver TO coinage as money metal,
Ssqusl in all functions, with gold, until
Z hat law again appears upon the statute
books and is put into unrestricted exc
sutton.
