BoLTED BY HENRY GEORGE.
The New York Free silver Choice for

OF Brynnism.

Young Henry George has refused to
run for the governorship OF New
York as the free silver and debt re-
pudiation candidate, and one Henry
M. Mcdonald will take his place on the
democratic ticket. Young Henry
George has done wisely. He has done
even more wisely than his noted ia
Their, who gave perfunctory sort OF
support to the Chicago platform. The
son now explains, in his letter declin-
ing the nomination OF the silyerites,
that his father supported the Chicago
platform in spite of the dishonest sill
YER plank, and not because of IL, and
he says he has no more use for free sill
yer than his father had. For that rea-
son he has determined TO 60 on writ
ing his fathers biography and TO keep
his own name from getting into bad
company.
The elder Henry George had n good
many pet vagaries of his own, but he
never had any use for dishonesty un-
der the guise OF reform. His SON says
he condemned the economic sound
ness OF the free coinage idea, but he
supported the democratic national
platform because he believed that In
other respects IL stood for the prin-
ciples Of freedom" This must be in

sisted of an editorial room. composing

with this force we set to work. and
for three days and nights-from n. IN.
until IL p. m.--we pounded away until
we had got our paper ready for the
press With perspiration streaming
from every pore and bodies racked with
symptoms Of fever, we stuck 10 the
task, nothing but the hard floor OF the
Office for a bed, no blankets, no nothing.
The typesetting being finished, we
wondered who would turn the press,
but not a man among us had strength
enough to give IL single revolution.
While discussing this problem. the To-
cal editor brought in two healthy

the 'Americanos. and in a short time
Co. L Enterprise was being shout
ed in the Spanish language on
the streets OF Santiago. We turned
out 5000 copies, and brought home
from the island about 1000 pa
pers, the balance being sold among the
army and navy. The next day we
wendell our way back TO the camp, and
presented Gen. Shafter with copy OF
the Enterprise. He complimented us
on our undertaking. and after that
nothing was too good for us.
With this graphic account OF the
printing OF the first American news
paper ever printed in Cuba the narrator
modestly refrained from saying more.
Death has invaded their little coterie
since arriving home, and Corporal Guy
kendall has passed TO his home beyond,
being stricken with paralysis two weeks
after his arrival. Thus the "editor-in-

BRYAN's BEAUTIFUL SILENCE.
The Cheap Money Moses Has = Hard
Time Keeping His Mouth
Closed.


The plains that lie about the ruins
OF Pompeii and Herculaneum. the
beautiful and the corrupt, are threat
ened by repetition of the yesuvian
overflow. The vine-clad hillside. the
fruitful valleys, are in imminent dam
ger of an avalanche slide of lava from
the long smoldering cauldron meath
the burnt-out crater of the seething
volcano.
IL Is an interesting contemplation.
attractive because of it's spectacular
promises, fascinating because of its
terrible possibilities. But IL Is not the
only eruption whose imminence makes
the world pause In awe and view with
alarm effects that may follow threat
ened causes. To have this painful
truth thrust convincingly upon ones
conscience there need be but this slight
reference TO current news item, to-
wit:
"Col. Bryan Is undoubtedly suffering
from the restraint he has placed over
himself.
IF you knew he said, what II cost
me to keep still, you would appreciate
the strength of my will
when asked IL he would talk freely
when he has once broken loose, he
said:
"'You know how II Is when a dam
breaks. There is no telling when the
flood stops"
With this avalanche of pent-up elo-
quence, an impending menace of words
held in check by no more substantial
barrier than Col. William jennings
Bryan's specific of silence, IL is no mat
ter of wonder that the American peo-
pie fail 10 appreciate in the fullest the
horror of Vesuvius' threatened out
burst. BY comparison, the volcanic
eruption pales into Intellectual fires be-
fore the threatened blowout of the Ne
braska cave OF winds.
IF you knew what it cost me TO keep
still"
Could anything be more pathetic
than this plant OF this peripatetic
free coiner of sixteen 10 one speeches?
You would appreciate the strength
of my will"
This evidently 10 the American peo-
pie, who in qualification OF his tenn
porary silence are ready TO concede full
appreciation OF the will that keeps him
worthless for even 50 brief period.
They appreciate the restraint-and the
silence-the more because aware that
In the very nature Of the man and his
methods II cannot possibly Ire OF much

that when the dam breaks there Is no
telling when the flood viii stop.

tlon and full qualification Is felt at
this brief suspension OF the slide that

and while viewed with little more APP
prehension than attends the anticipa-
ton OF any minor discomfort, the fact
on it's postponement Is pleasurable.

1T WOULD MEAN THIS:
A House Opposed TO the President
Would Undo the Victories
OF the War.

The success of the opposition TO the
republican party in the November cleo
tons would be regarded as a rebuke
of the administration of William Nc
Kinley, which has directed the second
successful foreign war in the lifetime
of the republic. Such success would
be received by the governments of Ger
many, France, Russia and Spain, and
even Great Britain, as a declaration of
the American people that they are not
satisfied with the results OF a war
which, with the smallest loss of hu-
man life, has accomplished greater re-
suits than any war in modern times.
Moreover, such success would he
interpreted by European governments
as a declaration that the American
people are opposed TO the policy of
the president and will encourage an
interference already indicated by the
Germans in the Philippines. To the
Spaniards the election Of house hos
tile to the president would give aid
and comfort encouraging them to in
sist upon terms OF peace which the
United States cannot honorably en-
terrain, and which might provoke a
renewal Of hostilities. Encouraged
by hostile governments in Europe, the

HOPES OF THE DEMOCRATS.
They Expect 10 Achieve Success
Through Disscnsion Among
the Republicans.

1t is good thing for democrats TO
comfort themselves with republican
differences. 1t pleases them, and they
do, Il so loudly that IL instructs the
surrounding universe. They want re-
publicans to fall foul OF each other
about candidates or else about fac
tions, and they frankly say so. They
hope that some republicans will run
outside tickets for the benefit OF dem
ocratic candidates for congress and
the assembly, and kindly say SO. They
are glad to know that nomination
by an independent body is TO some
republicans hindrance, and say so
loudly. They are TO be thanked for
their candor.
IL Is not necessary to go far afeld
to fsnd the source OF this deep interest
In republican doings. The democratic
organizations are under the unpleas-
ant necessity this year OF saying yes
or no on the Bryan question. That
does not mean the free silver question
alone. IL IL did, the problem would
be for many comparatively easy. A
free silver party could not carry New
York unless the republicans were bad
ly divided, as everyone knows. But
aman who holds Bryan's notions about
the supreme court and about the
rights of labor or other organizations
10 get up riots without interference
would not carry any state where the
people have sense enough for self-gov-
eminent, and yet n mixture Of these
questions with the dislike OF some
people for war, and OF some other peo-
pie for the way the war has been con-
Quoted, Is the total stock In trade OF
the democratic party.
That is n large stock, if the repub-
Leans see fit TO enlarge II. If every
man who did not think the war neces-
gnry, or thinks IL was not waged ex-
actly as Il should have been, betakes
himself TO the party Of Bryan for
expression Of his feelings. the so-called
silver party may record some apparent
gains. But II democrats hope 10 win
for Organism through republican dis
sension they are likely 10 be disap-
pointed. The average republican Is
