head OF the army aud is personally di-
recting the Philippine campaign.
When the president was asked why
he did not leave the details of the
pending war to his subordinates and
take vacation, he replied by quoting
the sentence from the constitution
which states that the president shall
be commander-in-ch of the army
and navy.
In further explanati he said:
"How can I take to the woods while
there is so much to be done toward
raising and looking after the
army in the Philippines and faithfully
to carry out the obligations imposed
upon me by the constitution? Why, it
is my desire that the army in the Phi
lippines shall be the best in the world,
and Gen. Otis shall have everything
he may require for the comfort of his
troops, and there shall be nothing lack
ing to bring the campaign to a speedy
and successful termination.
II am not giving any thought to the
question of vacation now, aud will
not until Gen. Otis's reinforcements ts
are:well under way and all arrangements
perfected for the return Of all the vo-
lunteers.'

Imperialism, And
Trusts.

ATLANTA, July 5.-After making
speech before the Barnesville Chau-

was the guest of honor last night at q
banquet of the Young Mems Democra-

In his address he named as the three
most prominent issues of the next na-
tional campaign. free silver, imperial
ism, and trusts.
He'asserted that silver could not be
side-tracked by democrats, because 1t
was as prominent an issue as it ever
was.
He said the time had come when the
party must either do or die and that all
its work must be embodied in its plat
form.
He declared the cardinal principles to
be adhered to we're anti Imperialism,
antitrust, and pro-silver.
Regarding his candidacy for she
presidential nomination, Bryan said

tance in a vigorous campaign to another
man, but, mark you, he who IS the
choice of our party in 1900 must be
one VINO will not falter nor hesitate.
bit who will boldly press the issues
which the party will creates and who
will as fearlessly combat those which
the opposition has already established
and are not maintained.
ssThe selection of the individual is
immaterial. But the man must be
everything. Not plodder nor timid
leader, but one who recognizes the
needs of the hour and who is not back
ward in performing the duties which
his position will thrust upon him."
