whenever interrupted train service was
resumed, whenever the men who had
been on strike began to go back in
solid platoons. Mr.. Debs wired to every
part of the country that the strike was
stronger than ever" The phrase has
acquired since that humorous cast,
with which the greatest humorist Of
them all, Jones, was probably familiar
when he used it to the keen-intelli-
genced populace of the advanced COM
monwealth of Arkansas.
Stronger than ever? We should say
SO. The election of 1892 was not a
marker to that of 1896 as an exhibition
of Democratic strength The only
states which Cleveland carried in 1892,
and which Mckinley carried in 1896,
are Connecticut, Delaware, Illinois, In
diana, Maryland, Michigan, New Jer-
sey, New York, West Virginia, Wis
consin, California and Kentucky If a
cause which has just lost by unheard-
of majorities twelve great states that
1T carried four years ago, casting to-
ldl vi I4t eleClOFdI VOTES, Is HOl
stronger than ever when would it
be? Those states, substituting Ohio
for Michigan, gave Mr.. Cleveland plu-
ralities, in 1892, amounting in all to
172,500 votes. The returns are not
full enough yet to give the exact fig
ures for the present election, but the
Republican pluralities in those same
states this year amount to nearly $780,
600. If a party which in a dozen states
loses matter of $780, 600 on the popular
vote is not stronger than ever" what
has it left to live for? There are
eight other states, including some of
the smaller New England common
wealths, with Iowa and Minnesota in
the Northwest, whose Republican plu-
ralities in 1892 were only a little over
$4,000, and this year are in excess of
100000. Here is another group, of eight
states where the candidacy of Mr.. Bry-
an increased the Republican lead by a
trifie over half million votes. So that
in every part of the country Mr.. Jones
can congratulate himself that the free
silver issue has made the party
stronger than ever in the full intent
and meaning of that expression, as i'm
mortalized by Mr. Debs and his asso-
ciates.
To those who, in this hour of calam-
ity, are attempting to justify their sui
cidal course by asserting that free sill
Yer is to be the issue for all time to
come, we would commend study of
the election returns and pluralities of
1896 and 1892, and the modest use of
paper and pencil to estimate how long
it would be, at the stronger than ever
rate Of progress, exemplified by the
canvass in which Mr.. Jones cut so
prominent a figure, before the Demo-
cratic vote becomes a minus quantity
in all the states of the Union.

KIND WORDS FOR BRYAN.

If Mckinley and the Republican party do
not do the square thing by the people now
then indeed will the veil be lifted and the
Democratic forces will still be ready to serve
and save them. Mr. Bryan goes down to de-
feat with a record that will be the pride of
his life No man ever deserved greater honor
and he will yet be the peoples president and
salvation.-St. Peter Journal.
Though the defeat may seem discouraging
to the silver men, yet it has been an honor
able one, and now that the issue is settled
let extend the hand of good fellowship to
our opponents. Truth crushed to earth will
rise again" If the silver movement is just
it wilt continue to live until it wins-New

William J. Bryan's work is ended for the
present. He has stopped talking for a time
at least and we cannot forbear, while bidding
him farewell, to admit that he is a man of
much ability as an orator If he has not
always clinched his sayings with reasonable
logic he at least has drawn out from the
granaries of its wisdom of other men much
of that wealth, and scattered it among the
people Of this naton.-Plainview News.

To the Editor of the Globe.
In the report of the meeting of the assem-
bly, last night, the following statement ap-
pears to have been made by Mr.. Arosin,
cording to the public report:
Il was told long time ago by the yica
president of the Street Railway company, and
I believe now he told the truth that MIR.
Mannheimer would never permit the loop TO
be removed from Robert street.
1 do not know what, If any, construc-
ton Mr. Arosin intended his hearers should
place upon THIS language. 1 do know, and
it is the absolute fact that have never ex-
changed a word with Mr. Goodrich, the vice
president Of the Street Railway company,
upon the subject Of the Broadway loop its
continuance or removal, nor have / ever ex-
changed word upon the subject with any
member of the assembly, save at the public
meetings of that body and it's committees
in their chamber. except that upon one oc-
casion | went to Mr.. Arosin's store and there
had conversation with him upon the sub
ject.
/ have tried to see Mr. Goodrich today in
order to verify my belief that he never made
to Mr.. Arosin statement of the kind which
the latter repeats, but failing to find him I
make this statement from my own personal
knowledge of the affair.
