BRYAN is stronger than any party.
The American people recognize him as
the defender of their interests against
the money kings, trusts, and monopolies.
They remember that his candidacy drove
the money kings and monopolies into
one PARTY to oppose his election. They
note that the money kings in the demo-
cratic party are as much opposed to his
denomination as the money kings and
trusts in the republican party. These
facts make him at least a million votes
stronger than any other candidate that
can be named by either party.

A SPECIAL cablegram to the Chi
cago Tribune, dated Sept. 20, says:
Alfred Dreyfus, free man, has re-
tired to the home of one of his
relatives in the Department of Vau-
cluse, in the southeast Of France.
His haven is near the home OF Pre-.
sident Loubet. Later on, he intends
to 90 to the southern coast as u
guest of the Prince of Monaco.
DreyfuS was released from the pris-
on at Rennes to-day before dawn.
He travelled with his brother, Math,
leu, in the direction Of Bordeaux,
in order to throw off his trail any
one who mightfoiIow him. Beyond
Nantes he turned from the Bor-
deaux route and FASTENED to his
temporary asylum in the Depart.
meut of the Vaucluse. He bore his
journey With the calm dignity that
characterizes him. For the first
time in more than four years France
is ut peace over the Dreylus case
The pardon signed by President
Loubet gives roliefto the conscience
of the country, as well as to the
whole world. The humane net o.

work begun by the court.martial at

THE pardoning of Capt. Dreyfus will
cause relaxation of interest in the
strange affair which has been a center of
worldwide interest for so long period
of time. The pardon does not afford
legal vindication for Dreyfus, but it re-
leases him from further physical punish
ment. The act CT clomenoy in nowise
condones the offence OF the generals or
of the court-martial acting under their
influence, though it does credit to the
eminent statesmen who now have control
of the French government. With the
granting of the pardon the Dreyfus
affair passes into history. 1t will long
be remembered, among other things,
for the evidence it elected OF the grow
ing spirit of human brotherhood which
breaks over national lines in its manifes-
tations of sympathy for the victim of
unjust and arbitrary power.
