Republican hostility to the mastery
inactivity displayed by the administra-
ton on the trust question will mani
fest itself as soon as a clear cut issue is
presented by the platform. The Re
publican party will thunder against the
trusts with generalities when the
Democratic party will point out specific
remedies
"On the question of imperialism the
opposition with the Republican party
is already manifesting itself and will
grow as the determination to fasten it's
imperial policy on the country becomes
more apparent. There is no real at
tempt being made to defend the presi-
dents policy Some say that it is too
late to discuss this question, because of
the ratification of the treaty Of peace,
but the McEnery resolution openly dis
putes this. Others say that we cannot
tell what to do until the Filipinos lay
down their arms. But the Republicans
cannot long evade the direct issue be-
tween the European idea of force which
supports war of conquest and the
American idea of government by con-
sent of the governed. When this is
sue is presented there can be no ques-
tion where the American people will
stand.
I'VE are strong in the new questions,
just where we were weak in the old
ones. We could not reach our foreign
born citizens with our literature on the
money question, but the foreign born
citizens are, because of their past ex-
perience, if anything quicker than the
American born to recognize the dangers
of Imperialism and militarism.
OUTLOOK is GOOD.
THE reports from all sections bear
out what l have said about Demo-
cratic prospects, If any one is in
clined to be despondent let him

when it came to fighting a fire was
evident.
Beside the entire loss of the playhouse
several small sheds were entirely des-
troyed together with the fence which
surrounds the lot and a large number
of chickens which were in the buildings
at the time.
When the fire first broke out the
children, who number one hundred, were
at their classes in the school, which is
just across the street from where the
fire got in it's destructive work. There
are also eleven sisters and the man who
has charge of the grounds quartered up
on the grounds.
The large main structure which was
erected at a cost of 100000 was badly
scorched and at several times the raf-
tcrs under the slate roof became ignit-
ed from the flying embers and great
heat but these were successfully put out
and, besides burning two large holes
in the roof, did little damage.
The two stables which were also
totally destroyed were each valued at
about $400.
Peter Weber states that his loss $40O,
without any insurance. August Rau-
man states his loss at perhaps $400 with
$2Or insurance.
The Louisville volunteer fire depart
ment which did such efficient work
deserves great praise and it was mainly
due to its efforts that the whole of
Louisville was not destroyed. With the
apparatus at hand hand hose cart
and two lines of lealy hose, 1t is aston
ishing that they accomplished the work
with no greater damage.
The fire was discovered at $3.50
o'clock and in about three hours was
entirely out
NOTES OF THE BLAZE.

The firemen worked in perfect unison

accomplished by them.

all labor would have been thrown to

| Several very badly excited citizens
rendered aid to the firemen, but that

Faith of William J. Bryan in the Sturdy Work.
ngmen Suggests Contrast.
James Creeman Talks With the Great Leader at Lincoln and
Writes Most Interestingly of His Home Life and
Incidently Gives His Discussion of
Pending Issues
Special to News-Democrat.

New York, Aug. 24.-Mr. James Creel-
man, in dispatch from Lincoln, Neb.,
to the Journal, writes as follows:
Lincoln, Neb., Aug. PA little more
than a week ago walking the deck of
the steamship st. Paul with Richard
Croker, listening to the tribute to Mr..
Bryans power and integrity, which has
stirred the country. And here I am to-
day with Mr.. Bryan himself the most
stubbornly sincere and convincingly
convinced political leader have met in
the whole world.
1 have known Mr.. Bryan for many
travelled nearly $4,000 miles with him
although I did not support him with
my vote. He is today the same sober
deliberate, intense, American he was
in those blistering days Of roaring null
titudes and political upheaval. There
is not shadow of turning or evasion
in his conversation. Unlike Mr.. Nc
Kinley he does not shift his ground to
suit the occasion.
BRYAN A FARMER.
I came to Lincoln to see Mr. Bryan
because Mr.. Croker said that many
Of the Democratic leaders in the eastern
states believe it to be desirable that the
ratio should be omitted from the finan-
cial plank of the national platform
next year and the question Of the rela-
tionship of silver to gold in our cur
interview with Mr.. Croker was the re-
suit of a statement made to me nearly
a year ago in London. He said then
that he believed Mr.. Bryan to be the
The Stark County Democrat. [volume] (Canton, Ohio) 1833-1912, 1899-08-25
greatest statesman in America; if not

greatest statesman in America; if not
in the world.
Mr.. Bryan looks older. In a few
months he will be 40 years old. He is
stouter and weighs 2O3 pounds. Since
the last campaign he has bought
farm of 25 acres just outside of Lincoln,
and every two or three days the black
charger which bore him as a soldier
carries him to his scented fields of
clover, green corn, ripe melons, fruit
trees, potatoes and tomatoes, over which
broods of white and brown chickens go
clucking contentedly.
The Democratic leader is a good car
penter and makes his own chicken
houses. l saw him today carrying an
armful of melons from the field to his
buggy, while his wife and children
strolled about the scene of plenty and
beauty.
NOT VERY RICH.
have taken the trouble to investi-
gate the story that Mr.. Bryan is the
richest man in Lincoln. 1t is preposter-
Gus. Mr.. Bryan's wealth does not ex-
ceed 100000 and half of that is in real
estate. His first profits from his book
amounted to $4,000. OF this he gave
$4,000 to various free silver clubs. He
also gave $4,000 to found prizes for es-
says or the science of government in
eighteen colleges. His house in Lincoln
cost him $4,000. He could not probably
sell 1t for more than $5,0OO His farm
near Lincoln cost him about $4,000 He
also owns farm Of go acres near his
birthplace, Salem, ILL.,. and a small
house which his mother occupied in her
last years. The story that Mr.. Bryan
is rich sprang from the fact that he is
one of the few citizens of Lincoln who
have honestly declared their personal
property for the purpose of taxation.
At this moment Mr.. Bryan stands at
the very center and heart of the Demo-
cracy in daily, almost hourly, contact
with the people and the leaders in all
parts of the country. He rose from
obscurity to this commanding position
by sticking to principle, regardless of
consequences. AS he stood on the lawn

MIR. BRYAN TALKS.
Democratic success in 1900" said Mr..
Bryan, "is becoming more and more
certain. On the old issues we are
stronger with the people than we were
in 1896. The sentiment in favor of arbi-
tration and an income tax is stronger.
The opposition to government by in
junction is stronger. The people bet
ter understand the necessity for bimet-
alism and better understand the
danger of a national bank currency
which places the control of the paper
money in the hands of the banks.
"On the new questions sentiment is
developing rapidly. Many Republicans
who did not recognize the menace Of
trusts in 1896 are becoming alarmed.
They now see the dangers which threat
ell the nation when an Industrial aris-
tocracy can arbitrarily control the price
of the raw material, the rate of wages
and the price Of the finished product.
"The Republican party is impotent to
destroy the trusts because the trusts
are largely responsible for the success
of the Republican party in the last cam
paign. While that party is not framing
it's politics along religious lines, it will
not disobey the injunction Remember
thy creator.

The Official estimate places the number
