ELECTIONS IN SIX STATES.

There will be elections for gov
ernor in six states this coming fall,
namely, Massachusetts, Maryland,
Mississippi. kentucky, Ohio and
Iowa. Massachusetts, and Iowa
will certainly so republican and
Mississippi can safely be placed in
the democratic column. Maryland
Kentucky and Ohio have republi-
can governors at the present time,
but it is doubtful if executives of
that faith are continued in power
in all the states mentioned.
Ohio may elect Nash, the re-
publican candidate for governor,
but his majority is not likely to be
overwhelming. In 80 years that
state has chosen only four demo-
Gratis for its highest Office, and no
one of these has ever received a
second term, Although factional
differences were apparently patch
ed up at the last convention in Co
lumbus, when Senator Hanna sue
ceeded in having his man nomi-
mated, some apathy is certain to
be displayed in spite OF the fact
that an Ohio man is president and
that his candidate tor governor
was nominated and will receive
administration support.
Under normal conditions Ken
lucky is democratic. With 5000
gold democrats in revolt in 1896
Mckinley carried the state by 200

NO LONGER FOR B1MErALL1sm

The leading republican papers
now announce that it is the pur-
pose of the republican party to
pass a measure making all govern
ment obligations explicitly payable
in gold
"Gold as the Standard" they
say, "would then be beyond the
caprice OF base money president,
or base money congress if an
honest money president were in
office. Nothing but the concur
rent adverse action of congress and
the president would then be able
to subvert the gold Standard"
Where is the republican who
will now claim that the republican
party is in favor of bimetallism, by
international agreement or other
wise? The republican leaders
have thrown off the mask and are
determined to pass the McCleary
bill, or something similar, destroy
ing the greenbacks and giving the
sole power of issuing paper money
to the banks.
AS time goes on, the hypocrisy
and deceit of the republican party
in 1896 is SO clearly revealed that

THE LESSON OF TEE DREYFUs TRIAL

The Drevfus trial has closed.
The accused has cen convicted
and sentenced to ten years imprls
onment The trial has been a
most dramatic affair. Epithets
have been hurled about promiscu
ously; tragic denunciations have
been common; the prisoners coun-
sci was shot, and the manifest
prejudice of the Judges against the
accused has been disgusting Nine
ty nine per cent OF the American
people believe in the innocence OF
the accused, and that he was con
victed by tribunal of officers who
have placed the honor of the army
above the triumph of justice.
The American people have
watched the entire proceedings
with great interest 1t is we'll.
The arrogance, the bigotry, the in
tolerance Of those French officers
point a moral if they do not adorn
the tale France is a republic,
but il is a republic in which the
military is the ruling power.
Is there not lesson in that for
Americans The spirit of miltar
ism is rampant in America. We
are called "copperheads" because
we dare criticise the adminstra-
ton which has treated the consti
tuition Of the United States as an
out of-date document, and which
has usurped the power of congress
to declare war. 1t is the spirit of
the dictator. 1t is the spirit of
militarism-the same spirit which
has brought disgrace and shame
on France.

BRYAN AND THE WEEKLY PAPER.

Col. William J. Bryan addressed
the assembled democratic county
chairmen at the auditorium in Des
Moines on the afternoon proceed.
ing the recent state convention.
In conclusion he said
'There are two things which
have spoken about this afternoon
which | don't want you to forget
1T the masses of the people expect
to have anything to say in shaping
public policy, they must contrib
ute something to meet the legiti-
mate expenses of conducting the
campaign. The trusts and svndi-
Gates have right to dictate the
policy OF of the republican admin
istratlon because the trusts and
syndicates put up the money to
carry on the republican campaign.
1t the common people desire a
change OF hope TO effect any re
form III present conditions they
must take sufficient interest to put
a little money iato the cause A
dollar apiece from every democrat
who can afford it will never be
missed aud will furnish a sufficient
campaign fund to meet all ex.
pc; SEES This idea should be
impressed on every democrat.
The other thing that want you
to remember is to patronize the
county weekly papers that advo-
cate our cause. Every democrat
should take the democratic paper
published in his county and pay
for it. The county weekly has
proven faithful when the city dai-
hes have deserted us, The coun-
ty weekly IS near to the people and
Yields great influence in shaping
public opinion. We owe great
deal to the county weekly. Sub
scribe for your county weekly, pay
for it and urge others to do the
same.

that an honest effort would be

Let the republican party carry

peoples greenback money if it
