Mr.. Bryan's application OF web
Foot" to the Breckenridge democrats"
was neat and timely II describes the
situation exactly. The terror and dis
traction OF the mother hen when she
fnds part Of her brood taking TO the
water Is familiar to all For great
many years Democracy has been ter
rorized by small faction that per-
sisted ia doing that which was as un-
natural In a Demo rat as taking 10
water is unnatural TO the legitimate
offspdug Of a stad old hen OF course
there are sarcastic Republican organs
that wiz say pitful things about the
idea OF any kind OF Democrat taking
to water. but that is another story
The unnatural progeny Of the Dem
ocracy has given their parent un.
eAsiness tor the last time. II they re.
fuse TO come back TO tho fold they can
no longer cause Democracy any fears;
il they do come back Il will be under
such restrictions as will prevent them
from setting mother Democracy to flut-
tering every time they see something
in the Republican camp they like.
TIE web-footed Democracy is
small in numbers, and is discovering
that It Is still smaller In influence with
the Republicans whom its members
helped into Office. With one web foot
drawn up against their hungry and
downless breasts, they are gazing
horelessly at the succulent feed that
the Republicans are preparing to dish
up for themselves. The dismal quaeks
about broken promises" and "blighted
hopes OF national integrity" coming
from the unnatural progeny of the
Democracy is greeted with jibss and
taunts from the immaculate saviours
OF national honor herded together 10y
the cracking Of Mr.. Hanna's whip.
"Web-foot Democrats" They have
travelled under many names since their
bolt, but Mr.. Dryan's amendment Is
accepted II is peculiarly appropriate.
They no longer cause anxiety in the
minds OF true Democrats. II they re.
main out Of the Democrats fold they
must dig for their own food. II they
return To the fold their webs will
mark them for life, and they will not
attempt TO create another panie-creat-
ing bolt The last one was such a
/ dismal failure that their webs turned
blue. The web-footed Democracy"
must either remain an allay to Repub-
licanism or split its webs aud come

Worth Knowing.

In chapter entitled "The Election Re.
turns in Mr.. Bryan's great book "The First
Battle" it says:
"Of the popular vote Mr. Mckinley re.
ceived plurality of 500, $40, which is less
than the plurality given by the three States,
Pennsylvania, New York and Massa-
chusetts. A change of 962 votes from the
Mckinley column to Bryans in California
would have given Bryan the entire electoral
vote of that State; in Oregon change of
LUCY votes would have given him the cleo.
toral vote of that State; in Kentucky a
change Of lao votes would have given him
the entire vote of that State; in Indiana a
change Of 1902 votes would have given him
the electoral vote Of that State; in North
Dakota change of 2, 1926 votes would have
given him the electoral vote of that State; in
West Virginia change of 3, l45 votes would
have given him the electoral vote of that
State. Thus total change of 10, 446 votes
distributed as suggested above in the States
named, would have given him AS more
electoral votes, or total of pa, majority
of |. In those states above mentioned the
total vote of 1892 was |, 449, 500; in 1896 the
total vote was l,72S,2l6, an increase of
27S, 594, or nearly l6s per cent, while the
total increase of the nation was |, 1865, l9S, or
nearly l3 2.5 per cent.
This calculation was made to show how
narrow was the defeat of bimetallsm, and
what is possible for the future. The six
states above mentioned were all considered
doubtful, and in those states Bryans vote
exceeded by 72,l93 the total vote cast for
Mr.. Cleveland and Mr.. Weaver in 1892. ,
