THE GOLDEN RULE.

Prior to the Democratic Convention
at Chicago, the 1Egis was warm in its
support of the gold standard, and the
people of Hartford instructed their
representatives in that convention for
gold. But it would be unbecoming in
us, or in other Democrats, who prior
to the convention at Chicago were
gold men, to refuse to apply the
Golden Rule, and to do unto others as
they would have others do unto them.
If the supporters of gold standard
had been in the ma jority in that con
vention, and had nominated Whitney
or Hill, or any other gold standard
man, we would have held that the
minority were duty bound to give the
nominees their hearty support. The
rule works both ways. We, as Demo
Gratis are bound by the action OF the
convention, and cannot consistently
vote any other ticket. If we do, we
betray our party and oppose the fun
damental principles Of Democracy,
for which we have so long and so
earnestly commended.
The men nominated at Chicago are,
honest, capable and independent
Bryan is selfmade man, sturdy,
hrainy. courageous, man OF strong
convictions, honest in purpose, and
fearless in doing what he believes to
he right. The objection now and
then made to him as a candidate is
his age, he being only 3G years old
one year over the constitutional limit.
This objection is childish. 1t is in
the young men of this country that
our hope is placed. Henry Clay was
elected to the United States Senate
at the age of Twenty-Five.
Let us not be over anxious to find
fault. No nomination ever pleased
the whole party. Instead of magni-
flying the imperfections of our own
nominees and platform, why not
glance at the vulnerable points of our
opponents, the common enemy whom
we have fought for so many years.
Apply the Golden Rule to the silver
nominees. remembering that there are
other Democratic principles involved
which you cannot afford to sacrifice.

For tn past two weeks the $780,
900 600 gold reserve has been constant
ly dwindling until now it is less than
$50 200, 600 and the Withdrawals seem
likely to continue for some time
Considerable of this amount is eX
ported, while some will be boarded.
Seeing that the matter was getting
worse day by day, conference OF
New York bankers was held who
agreed to furnish S1S,O00,000 in ex
change for treasury notes.
On Wednesday a conference OF
foreign bankers was held and an
agreement was entered into, promis
ing to furnish the government for
sixty days with all the yellow metal
necessary to keep up the 800, 900, 600
mark.
Now on the face of this. what could
be more patriotic on the part of these
gentlemen Even the foreign bank
.ers fearing that their noble brothers
in New York could not furnish Uncle
Sam with the necessary wherewithal,
they too stepped in to furnish add
tional gold.
At first glance does it not make our
bosoms swell with pride and our
hearts beat with enthusiasm when we
feel that "Wall street. is actually
coming to aid US to keep compromises
and that crusty John Bull is backing
it up with it's unlimited resources. But
there is secret underlying it all and
let us examine into it. Any ten-year
old boy knows that if bond issue
is forced between now and November
Bryan will sweep the country like n
whirlwind. The bankers without rX-
csption are for Mckinley and more
bond issues. Had they shown their
patriotism last winter and come to the
rescue of the treasury that fatal issue
of 800, 0O0, 900 of bonds would not have
been necessary. Instead of coming to
the rescue, they, on the contrary, kept
up the drain to force the issue and
were successful, as the country well
knows. At that time they had as
much gold as now and if it We're not
for the defeat of their Moses, Me
Kinley, another bond issue would be
certainty inside of thirty days.
Is this not convincing argument
that the man for the poor people, the
everyday people, the people who earn
their living by daily work, not the
people VINO squeeze the COVE rnment
To issue bonds to invest their surplus
millions, to support is Bryan regardless
of past affiliations.
Another thing to be noticed is that
the New York philanthropists are
taking treasury notes, which under the
Interpretation of the present admins
tration are re1eemable in gold and We
make it prediction that every dollar
of these, will be presented for re
demption on the fourth of next No
vember, the day after the election.
Our duty then is plain and that is,
vote for Bryan.

LETTER FROM TIE CUBAN GEN
ERfI

In n recent letter to the New York
Horid, General Maceo, commander of
the Cuban patriot army, said:
II should not like our neighbors, of
the United States, to shed their blood
for our freedom. We are able to fight
for ourselves, if in addition to our rights
as Il nation, we can obtain the mum
lions we need to drive from Cuba the
shattered power of Spain in America.
But what chiefly distresses me is
the sacrifice of poor and innocent
families which the Spaniards make
daily. In this sense | should rejoice
if the Americans would use their good
Offices to the end that the Spanish
beasts of prey should cease the butch
cry of defenseless people. For hu-
manity's sake, all civilized countries
and nations interested in the moral
and material progress of the world
should favor intercession to that ex-
tent

Under the above caption the Wash
ington correspondence of one CT the Re
publican organs in Baltimore, states
that the Republican Congressional
campaign is planning to secure ma
jority in the House of Representatives,
even if Mckinley should be defeated.
The plan is to unite all of the discord-
ant elements of the Democratic party
with the Republicans upon the single
issue presented by the financial plank
of the Chicago platform.
1t matters not what may be the di-
vergence of opinion upon the great
issues which have ever divided the
two parties. Democrats are called
upon to east aside all of the principles
for which they have contended
throughout the past, and unite with

TOUNG MEN IN HISTORY


Experience is an excellent educator,
but there are many other elements be-
sides experience which go to make a
great man. Other things being equal,
youth is help and not hinderance.
The energy, enthusiasm, hope and as
pirations of youth lead to a succession
of exertions that later life know not of.
William Jennings Bryan is a young
man whose career has been brief, but
his rise phenomenal. This is no OBJ
lection to his fitness to fill the Presi-
Dental chair. The lamented eX Gov
ernor Russell, of Massachusetts,, whose
recent sudden death cast a gloom over
the whole land, was a man yet below
forty.
History has many examples of men
who accomplished wonders, made
their lives immortal, and died before
reaching the age of forty. We may
mention several. The list could be in
creased to hundreds. William Pitt
was elected to parliament at the age
of twenty one, at twenty-three was
leader of the House of Commons, and
at twenty four was Prime Minister q
England. Charles Fox entered parlla
| ment at the age of nineteen. AleXan
der the Great was only twenty-foul

mids, and died at thirty three, having
conquered the then known world
John c. Calhoun was Secretary oil
War under President Monroe at the
age of thirtysix.
Take from the list of the worlds ia
nous men those who won fame and
power before they reached the age Of
thirty-six, and you have removed the
motive power of progress, the driving.

MCKINLEY IND THRIFT.

1t has been well said by a recent
correspondent of one of the city pa
pers: Mr.. Mckinley is known the
country over as protective tariff
man, and his manager, Hanna, has
been lately made a gold man by Tom
Platt and other Eastern Republicans.
Every speech which Mckinley has
made, and every vote which he has
cast on the financial question has been
equivalent to a free silver declaration.
| would as soon trust Bryan on the
financial question as Mckinley, and
when it comes to the tariff, | reflect
that Democrats have struggled for
more than n quarter of n century to
achieve the slight move towards tariff
reform, represented by the Wilson
tariff bill, and that the election of Nc
X inley will mean the wiping out in
one day all the result of this thirty
years of toll. If Mckinley is elected
and a Republican Congress can be
found to back him, the financial ques-
ton will be abandoned at once as a
party policy, and our old friends, the
prOtt cte,i manufacturers and monopo
lists, will be invited to Washington to
write another Mckinley tariff bill"
