LINCOLN AND BRYAN.

There is a clean cut anoloRy in the
relations Of VIM. j. Bryan to the citi-
zens Of New York city to that of Abra-
ham Lincoln in 1860. At that time
Lincoln was known 10 the West as the
''Great Illinois Orator." The people
of New York contemplated him as a
revolutionist and he organizer and
leader of a "Black Republican blood
party He had denounced the Sup
reme Court in its bred Scott decision
as Bryan has denounced the same
court 10 its income tax decision. Mr..
Lincoln had behind MIN such men as
Lovejoy, Wendell Phillips, Charles
Summer and William Lloyd Garrison.
as Bryan has Aityeld, Tillman,
Weaver and Teller. The %slavocracy
Of the nation, which included New
York City, had its Brooks, who club
bed Sumner, as the moneyed pluto
cracy Of today has its Herr Most. The
East looked askance at Lincoln, for
they viewed him as An a ward back
"oCoohhoby u tulhCu WIN Il h6SSI
twang as pronounced as a Scntch bag
pipe, wore number twelve boots and
who had the facial make up suitable
for a comedian or clown. Lincoln
was in the habit of speaking extern
pore and the Eastern papers when he
spoke In Cooper union were prepared
to murder his speech just as they had
calculated TO do with Bryan in Mad
ison Square Garden, and Lincoln, to
foil the publicity OF these scavengeIs
OF honesty, read his speech, just as
Bryan did for the same purpose.
The audience which Lincoln faced
Cooper Union numbered $500, while
that OF Bryan was at least 10, 900
Both complained of the rich and
powerful, and both were ignored by
that class. No Astors, Rhinelanders,
VaDderbilts, or Depews listened to
Bryan, and the same class of men ig-
nored Lincoln.
Lincoln was really more unfortunate
than Bryan. The common people,
with the exception of the blacks, were
not his ardent admirers to the extent
that Bryan has their good wishes,
and the churches, largely the culture
and the seats of learning were against
Lincoln, while many Of hat class are
strong defenders of Bryan. Lincoln
posed as the leader of a reform which
would confine slave power in certain
limits then occupied, and in tha'
movement party lines were broken up
while Bryan poses a. the leader 10 {
reform that is to check the onslaughts
OF a plutocracy more dangerous to the
liberties of the people than blacl
slavery. Lincoln's election brough
the greatest struggle Of the century
and the same class of people who pre-
dlcted wal are now making a like cry
There were the same hysterica
methods adopted by the slavery paper
OF those days, the same vir,uperation
the below of anarchy and Reputation
OF contract, the same plague spots o
filth and falsehOod and the sam
charges OF t~reachery to boilers as now
The banks and the Shylocks forsool
the government, leaving it STRANDED
and to its fad, there was the same in
tlmldation OF voters by factory bosses
the same pinching of creditors an,
those who were dependent and tn
same patriotism on the part of th
masses as at present. History is re
peating itself.-Grand Rapids Wolk

The above figures tell the story of
Republican ire achery to the cause of
silver, during the last quarter of a
century. The figures are taken from
the Congressional Record and cannot
be disputed. The browning act of
their drama OF hyprocracy, was at st.
Louis, where they were forced to come
out OF the bush and openly declare
for the gold standard.

A VERY FINE POINT
Raised Over the Actual Parliamentary Stand.
ing Of the Armenian Resolutions.

Washington, Jan. 29.-With regard to
the so-called concurrent resolution" as
to Armenian affairs, which requests the
President to bring the opinion OF Congress
to the attention of the signatory Powers
to the Berlin treaty, nice constitutional
question was raised in the House during
its discussion, and is again raised in
official circles as to whether this con
current resolution is not in fact u . joint
resolution within the meaning OF article
!, section B, of the federal constitution,
If this be so, it follows that the resolu-
ton falls within the provision Of the third
clause of the section referred to, which re-
quires that 'every order, resolution or
vote to which the concurrence OF the Ser
ate or House of Representatives may be
necessary Except on the question OF ad-
iournment) shall be presented to the
President of the United States; and, be
fore the same shall take effect, shall be
approved by him, or, being disapproved
by him, shall be re-passed by two-thirds
Of the Senate and House of Representa-
tives, according to the rules and limita
tions prescribed in the case Of BILL
1t is held by pariiamentariaus that Il
bill enacted enters permanently into the
1 statutes that Joint resolution deals with
matters of temporary existence, and
| concurrent resolution relates to an affair
exclusively connected with Congress, as,
for example, the adiournment of both
houses for longer period than three
days or an order for the payment of small
conting gent expenses, with no contempla
tion of bringing in any Executive inter
| ference.
a sharp line is thus drawn between
affairs relating solely to Legislative mat
| tiers and those involving Executive action.
| Under the circumstances it Is vigorously
commended that the Armenian resolution
is really a joint resolution, and if not
signed or vetoed by the President, it will
| become Il law by limitation and will go
upon the statutes at the end OF 10 days in
default Of Executive action upon it.
This position is very strongly held by
officials Of long experience. They state
| that the mere inscIibng OF a resolution
upon the blank forms used by Congress
| for concurrent action. cannot change the
nature of the subject matter ana the sug
take this view and call the attention Of
Congress to the irregular form in which
the matter is presented for his official
action.
| The same question as to the propricty
of form applies to the Cuban resolutions
reported, today by the Senate committee
on foreign relations.
