CONTINUE TO COMMENT.

Cars Motto . Fruitful Topic For Loudou
Observation-Disclosures Probable.
LONDON, Aug. 3l.-The newspapers
here continue to devote a large amount
of their space to comments upon and
criticism of the cars peace note.
While naturally differing in regard to
the reasons actuating the appeal, they
generally agree hat the outcome will
be a conference of the premiers, if not
of the sovereigns themselves, probably
at Copenhagen, which will be followed
by an expression of concurrence in the
humanitarian aims Of the car and q
report of the resolutions to their re.
spective governments, when the whole
thing will be shelved indefinitely.
The latest comments from Paris show
that there is intense irritation on the
subject there. The cars proposal is
regarded as being unfriendly and in.
consistent with the Franco Russian
alliance. Curiously enough, in support
OF this view, the official Hamburger
Correspondent publishes a telegram
from st. Petersburg confirming the
report that Emperor William Of Ger.
many and the czar exchanged views In
regard to the establishment OF last.
ing state Of peace. (which was fully
demonstrated by the identity Of the
monarchs' wishes"
In other quarters it is alleged that
the cars announcement was directly
inspired by Queen Victoria, whose
greatest hope is that her reign may
not again be disturbed by war. The
queen confessedly has long sought to
restrain Emperor William, and 1t ID
not unlikely that she used her great
influence with the czarina to secure
the support Of the car.

While republicans manifest no modes

While republicans manifest no modesty
in claiming all the glory of the early
part Of the war they also manifest nc
shame at the way they are conducting
the latter part Of the war. The begin.
ming OF the war was not theirs to con
troll, the country forced them into 1t
against the administrations will and
won. But the conduct OF the wal later
was entirely in their hands and the re-
spoIsibllity Of its conduct rests entirely
with them and it has been beastly. Pc
litical favoritism and partizan zeal hath
eaten the party up and is eating up the
lives of a great many soldier boys dear
to American mothers hearts. Tn; IS
republican administration has a terrible
load OF guilt upon its con: cience for the
way it has conducted this war.
The Madison daily leader. [volume] (Madison, S.D.) 1890-current, 1898-08-31

publican votes places the latter in a
position where they must either give up
a principle altogether for which they left
the party to contend for and return 10
the gold bug party or make up their
minds to cut loose from that party with.
out hope of return forever. This Is the
logic of the situation. The silver issue,
however, is by no means u dead issue.
The gold standard is Just as potent for
evil to-day as aver it was and it can be
very easily demonstrated by statistics
that the oppression and injustice it has
wrought to the laboriDg and producing
class, S is going IN as steadily and IN
relentingly to day as 1t has done at any
time since %. II is the paramount and
greatest Issue Of political economy to-
day. And such being the case where
are free silver republicans placed by the
present drift of the republican party
which is declaring u~neluivocally for the
single gold standard: They are simply
barred out without hope of return.
AS the platform Of the peoples party
is sound en- the silver question and the
rest of its platform offers more ia com
mon to silver republicans that is likely
to be conscientiously enacted into law
for the good of the people than all that
is professed or will be enacted 10y the re-

standard, corporation action and the IN.

no hope Of reclaiming the republican
party from a course which means op
preston and slavery to the masses.

Such the Opinion Attributed to
Senator Davis in a Chicago
Interview.
London, Berlin and Paris Com.
ments Voice Many Opinions
on the Subject.

CHICAGO, Aug. Ex-senator Cush.
man Z. Davis Of Minnesota, q member
of the Paris peace commission, stopped
in this city q few hours while en- route
to his home in st. Paul, where he ex.
poets to remain and rest until Sept. II,
when the commission sails for Europe.
When asked for his opinion of the
probable success of the cars proposal
for q disarmament conference he said:
while the obstacles in the way of
the abandonment of standing armies
seem almost insurmountable, still l
would not be at all surprised if very
material good could be accomplished
by q conference of the kind proposed.
It might not result in the reduction of
the standing armies, but it would be a
step toward that goal, and it might
have side results which would be of the
greatest value.
Believes the Car Unselhsh.
"The car has done a great thing in
putting forth his suggestion. While
Russia would undoubtedly benefit
greatly by the change, I believe the
cars motives are not in any sense
selfish, and that he is perfectly sincere
in his desire to bring about benefits
to all the European nations. The Rus.
sian imperial family has always had a
vein of humanitarianism and even of
sentimentalism, in matters of reform,
and its achievements have been very
great in some lines.
1T is, of course, very hard to say
what the proposed conference would
accomplish. England would gain i'm.
mensely by. disarming, and would I'M.
doubleday work hard for it, The
smaller and weaker nations are being
forced to bankruptcy and ruin by the
armies they feel forced to maintain.
They may have to reduce their forces
merely to keep in existence whether
there is any general agreement or not
Russia is SO protected by its barrier Of
ice and snow behind it, and by the
character of its people that it could at.
ford to disarm. Certainly it woulc
want to avoid fighting until its grea,
military road across Siberia is com
pleted.
"The Eastern question is very seri
Gus, and may at any time lead to trou
BILE. So many Of the elements of i
require delicate treatment that
don't see how the nations interested
can afford to disarm until they have
good basis for action in this field
! Guarantees Of good faith will be need
ed IN some form if disarmament is t
be accomplished, and how they are t,
be given it is difficult to see. l don
think that an international court o
arbitration would necessarily be in
volved in the disarmament plan, bu
the conference may open the way t,
such a bit of progress"

lhe chhirmen Of the three fusion par
ties of this state have Il lengthy dissec
ton Of the Mitchell platform ia the issue
Of the Sioux Falls Press of the Both
inst, which is a truthful review Of prin.
ciples, declarations aud history of the
state republican party on the topics
mentioned in the platform. The article
OF the committeeman simply riddles the
Mitchell document and shows up in the
light Of their past record the hollow pre-
lenses OF that corporation ridden party.
Every voter in this state ought to
possess a copy of this criticism OF that
platform as it contains much Of history
and fact with which the ordinary reader
may not be familiar. The committee
men puncture in elegant fashion the
hypocritical position the republican
party has held on the bimetalic theory
in the past and it's now open declaration
for the single gold standard. But out
side OF state party lines THE DAILY
LEADER wishes to discuss this silver
question 10 it's broader bearings.
1t is noticeable that all state rspubli-
can conventions this year are declaring
boldly for the single gold standard and
are saying not q word about bimetalism
which their national platforms have
heretofore u~nequivocally asserted was u
fundamental tenet Of republican belief.
Whether this uniform action Of republic
can state conventions is the work Of
Mark Hanna. which it in all probability
is, or not, 1t is evidently done to prepare
the way for ar absolute gold standard
declaration in the next national republi-
can platform. And thereby hangs a
sequel. This throwing off the m ask that
has been used to catch free silver re.
