Bryan or Mckinley.

"Shsll we vote for Bryan or McKin-
ley ?" was, in effect, the subject mainly
discussed at the annual dinner Of the
Massachusetts, Reform Club last Satur'
day night in Boston. The meeting was
one of the livellest in the history OF the
organization.
The report Of Secretary Charles War
rem reviewed the progress of the war In
the Philippines and likened the procla'
nation Of President Mckinley regard
ing the Fllipinos to the proclamation
of King George III during the Ameri-
can struggle for independence.
The presiding officer. Dol. Charles K.
Goldman. said that he was an anti-im-
perialist. The crimes Of the present
Administration have not been passed
upon by the people yet, he said. The
country could not be blamed until the
people had voted.
Rather than vote for the present
chief executive" he said. :" 1 don t
know who l would not vote for"
Charles Francis Adams said there
was only one course to pursue. He
knew that II he did not vote for Nc
Kinley he would have TO vote for
Bryan. "That l cannot do, gentle.
mer." he said. and was applauded.
II suppose I know Mr.. Mckinley as
we'll as any Of you. He would be very
likely TO be better President in his
second term than Mr.. Bryan In his
frat II we had Mr.. Cleveland to turn
TO, the result would be different. "
Gamaliel Bradford said: Il believe
Mckinley intends to make this coun-
try an empire. believe he brought on
the war with Spain for political pur'
poses.
Richard II. Dana said that although
an anti.expausionist he should vote Tor
