GAMBLING IN HUMAN LIVES

Defense of Bryan and the Free Silver
Doctrine Before an Assemblage
of Democrats.
Special Dispatch to The Call.

OMAHA, Nebr., Aug. 19.-Fully 1000
Douglass Democrats, assisted by
delegation of about 300 members of the
JeferSonian Club Of Lancaster County,
turned out to-day to attend the Jack
sonian Club picnic at Syndicate Park.
Many were accompanied by their fam
lilies, and with the outsiders who came
to hear the speeches they constituted
crowd of several thousand. W. j. Bryan
accompanied the Lancaster County
delegation. Congressman Champ Clark
of Missouri was the orator of the day.
He declared that the Democratic plat
form of 1900 must be the same as that
of 1896. He said:
'"The people understand precisely
what they want. They want the Chi
cago platform and they intend to have
| it, unchanged, undiluted, unimpaired
| They will break short off, as you can
| break a piece of glass, the necks Of
those who try to play them false. They
are not in a frame of mind to be fooled
with"
Mr. Clark declared that the over
| shadowing issue of 1895 was the ques-
ton of free coinage and that it will hold
the same position in 1900.
Regarding the Philippine situation,
| he declared that President Mckinley
has no policy He said:
He is letting things drift, and they
are drifting to the deuce. Meantime
our soldiers are being killed and dying
of disease in shoals. For what purpose?
Will anybody undertake to say? l defy
any expansionist to stand up and in
| form US what the Presidents policy is.
But some say, and mores the pity and
shame some calling themselves Demo-
Gratis, The President is wrong; but we
must support the President To this
has it come at last that we must shut
up our thinkers, close our mouths and
chloroform our corsciences in order to
be considered patriots.
mo, If the President Is wrong. he
should be set right. If he will not
| cease to do wrong, he should be
! bounced, as he will be so soon as the
American people can get crack at
| him.
In the interim, Congress should re-
! strain him from the further expendi-
ture of American blood and American
| treasure, in his career of criminal ag-
gression, for that is what he himself
! defined tforcible annexation to be.
IF he has not sufficient courage. for
titude and strength to resist pressure
| of the gamblers in human blood and
| lives who are holding him on this
| evil and ruinous course. the American
| people will find President who has.
His name, too, is William-Willialn

ADVERTISEMENTS.

In military prisons an offender is some
times sentenced to carry cannon balls from
one place to another and pile them up all

seem very terrible but it soon wears his
life out. 1t is practically death sentence,
and he knows It; he would rather be shot.

GOOD ACCOMPLISHED
BY PEACE CONGRESS
President White Outlines the Benefits
That Will Accrue to Civilized
Nations

HAMBURG. Aug. 20.-At the request Of
the cores pondent here of the Associated
Press, Andrew D. White, United States
ambassador to Germany, who was presi-
dent of the American Peace Commission
at The Hague, has written the following
in regard to the result of the conference:
I'm my opinion great good was accom-
plished, far more in fact, than any of us
dared expect, or even hope, when we came
together.
"As to disarmament, everybody really
thinking upon the subject must see that
a good system of arbitration must come
first, and that then when arbitration has
diminished the likelihood of war the ar
guments for cutting down forces and ar
maments is greatly strengthened. The
logical order, then, is first arbitration
and next disarmament.
LAS to the plan of arbitration any COM
pulSory system is at present utterly out
of the question. There are so many inter-
national differences involving questions of
race, religion and security that there is
not nation on the face of the earth will
ing to risk an obligatory system. Far bet
ter, then, than any is thoroughly good
system of voluntary arbitration, recourse
to which public opinion will enforce more
and more, and this, L earnestly believe
the conference has presented to the
world.
formerly an arbitration court could only
be provided after long correspondence be-
tween Cabinets and negotiations between
Ministers and a thousand other DELAYS.
just when time was most precious, the
conference has given to the world an ar
bitration tribunal as an actual and per-
manent institution, with Judges, proce-
dure. officers of the court, place Of meet
ing and accessories all provided.
1T has added as subsidiary to it's main
feature carefully systematized plans of
mediation, both general and special,
which are likely in many cases to prove
exceedingly valuable in preventing ma
tions from drifting into war.
TT has also provided a system Of COM
mission of inquiry by which the real ques-
tions and grievances at issue can be as
