Bryanism and imperialism.

The Denver News has been the
most uncompl omising advocate of
Organism west of the Mississippi
River, and possibly the most in
tlucntia!. 1t is not frightened by
the cry of ''imperialism'' and does
not propose to allow Mr.. Bryan or
any one else to dictate what views
the people of Colorado shall hold
as to the extension of our national
influence. The News says:
IF it is imperialism to annex a
group of islands which command
the Pacific Ocean, and which would
be and of necessity must be the
stopping place of Il hostile feet di-
rected against our western coast,
then it is imperialism to annex
Hawaii, and the News is for i'm
pcrialism. \ name will frighten
no one. The word imperial" does
not necessarily mean pertaining to
an emperor or an empire. 1t means
possessing commanding power or
dignity: it means predominance.
Among its synonyms are exalted,
grand, magnificent and supreme.
The United States should have COM
manding power and dignity and
predominance in the oceans which
wash both its coasts. That is what
the News stand for, let it be called
by whatever name il will"

TIE Populists held their State

TIE Populists held their State
Convention in St. Louis last week,
and, as was expected, the party
was split in two and two tickets
nominated. The faction in favor
of fusion with the Democrats were
in the minority, but under control
of Chairman Rozelle, who holds the
Job of State Labor Commissioner
at the hands of Gov. Stephens for
valuable services rendered the
Democrats in 1896, ran things to
suit themselves and forced the
Middle of the Road men out OF the
organization. Rozelle denounced
the Middle of the Readers as bood-
lers and in pay of the Republicans,
which sounded a lot like Il thief
crying ''step thief" Rozelle is
known to have sold out to the DEM
ocrats two years ago and is ready
to sell out again. AS both tickets
cannot be placed on the ballots as
Populist tickets it will be interest
ing to watch the outcome of the

on the manner il which the Stale
debt (which some of them charged
to the Republican party has been
decreased. After observing the
casting OF boqUets at their own
party by the Democratic press
awhile, the Salem Repu|>lican-
Headlight took up the matter and
put a different phase on the subject
The Republican-Hcad charges
that the present interest-bearing g
debt of the State is entirely of
Democratic origin; that when that
party came into control Of state af-
fairs, in 1871, the debt was but
$50, $50, 900, Of which $4,000, 900
has since been paid by the Hanni-
bal & St. Joe Railroad Company:
that $50, 4l3, 413 has been collected
from the taxpayers of Missouri for
the state interest fund, especially
to pay off those bonds; and that the
interest-bearing debt of the state
was on January 1, 1897, 50, ,369,
S39. If true as charged, it is ai,-
parent that while the taxpayers
have been forced to contribute
s3O,413,413 for the sacred purpose,
rs set out in the state constitution.
Of paying the bonded debt, that
debt has been only decreased S.
800, III; and that the fact that
none of the Democratic papers
have contradictcd these statements
is strong evidence that the charges
arc true. In fact, we have seen NJ
attempt to refute the charges.
Such a wholesale and systcmati,
robbery of the taxpayers merits
the reputation of the party which
tolcrates and executes it.-Birch
