perfect right to challenge Mr.. Bryan's
wisdom on Imperialism and all Other sub
jects, and even 10 oppose his nomination..
BUT no proiessed democrat can hope to
have much weight in democratic, coanc Ia
when 1t Is known that there is to be re-
beliion to the party DEGREES and opposi-
ton to Its candidates. The News destroys
its usefulness by claiming to be "a dem-
ocratic journal" that does just as 1t
pleases. The New York Times, as we now
recollect, belongs In the same category. It
supported Cleveland and fought Bryan. Its
advice to the South as to Bryan is there
fore discredted in advance. Were the At
lanta Constitution Tor The Houston Post)
to give utterance to the same sentiment,
concerning Bryan as the New York Times,
there would be CONSERVATION among the
friends of the Nebraskan, for the simple
reason that its fidelity to the party Is
unquestioned, and this warning would be
construed by thousands as danger sig
nal. But coming from the New York
Times, and Endorsed by the Dallas News,
the warning goes UNDECIDED even though 1t
contain vital truth. Independence in a
paper is all right UP to a certain point,
after which it must fall in with the ma
jority or lose the greater part OF its in
huence.

The president message to congress Is as
colorless as it is long. With the excep-

nothing in 1t that conveys any new in
formation or any new views OF the presl-
dents policy 1t has all been announced
or foreshadowed. 1t puts nothing in very
striking way II is filled with platltudes
and ambiguous phrases. with hlgh-so
ing declarations that mean nothing. With
brief reference to the death OF the vice
president, and declaration that the coun-
Try is prosperous, he launches into the
subject of currency legislation. He claims
that enlarging business calls for a larger
supply Of money, and states that reform
OF the National banking law Will furnish

retirement of the greenbacks, which will
inevitably take s346, 600 out of circula-
tion. He recommends the maintenance
of the gold standard and its extension to
maintaining the parity OF coins OF the
two metals" which necessarily means the
redemption OF silver coins In gold. In all
respects his recommendations for cur
rency legislation are on the lines OF the
proposed house bill. which, as already
known, is the administration measure.
