they would be unfolding the Democratic
Organization and doing something for
silver" But Tor all that the Dispatch
would not desert Mr Micawber.' Il
said that Mr.. Bryan had made great
blunder. but that we was sun the great
est living statesman and worthy Of sup
port.
But II IS sorely tried. In recent issue
70 directs attention to The fac; that close
observers Of conditions sn The Demo
cratic party recognized some time ago
that there was TO be a struggle between
the people and the political bosses for the
control Of the party "Those who have
seen this" IT goes on. 'win not neces-
sarlly regard Mr.. Bryans efforts for
Cocbel as indicating his readiness 10 join
hands with the politicians, but thdre are
many Democrats who are not so certain
as to his attitude in this struggle as they
once were"
We would not dotract from Mr. Bryan's
merits but it is all nonsense TO hold him
up as The great unselhsh champion of the
peoples rights and the peoples interests.
and something altogether better than
other leading politicians. Mr.. Bryan is
a professional politician. and like all
others Of that class he is for success. He
is as much part and parcel Of the po-
nucal machine as any other politician in
the Democratic party. and he is as surely
committed to the political machine of
Kentucky as G0ebel or any of his fol.
lowers. Mr.. Bryan talks eloquently Of
independence in politics. of the duty OF
every man 10 vote according to his con-
yictions. and he goes so far as to say
that there is time 20 bolt. But when he
gets down 10 business Mr.. Bryan talks
like all the rest Of them and breaches
party regularity with the same ardor
that Plat and Croker preach It. In short,
while Mr.. Bryan says that there is a time
10 bolt, that time never comes so long as
silver is at stake. If there ever was a
time TO bolt that time has come TO the
independent Democrats of Kentucky but
Mr.. Bryan does not think so. He is for
the political machine. and the Louisville
Dispatch cannot get around the fact.

The COMING ISSUE.

Hon d. b. Henderson. who will he the
next Speaker Of the House Of ReDresen-
,atives. made a speech at Waterloo. Iowa
a few days back. in which he said that
The issues of Trusts and Imperialism
would cut very little figure in the next
Presidential election but that the real
fight would be what it was in 1886, that
il over the money Of the country
In our opinion. Mr.. Henderson is per-
fectIy right. The platforms Of both po-
litical parties will take ground against
Trusts so that a man cannot be said to
be voting for Trusts when ne supports the
Republican candidate. and the man who
supports the Democratic candidate cannot
claim that he is any special opponent of
Trusts And at last, back Of it ALL there
Is a general feeling that the subject IS
one that must be dealt with very cau-
tlously. Working people say the Trusts
nav them better wages than the old cm-
ployers and they pay them regularly and
give them steady and continuous en-
ployment. Many other people say also
that what they buy from the Trusts is
cheaper than what they formerly bought
and II IS certain to be what it Is represent
-d to be 50 that with an the clamor against
Trusts. there IS a very great body of the
population that says it IS case in which
we must go very slow.
As for Imperialism. that issue will prob
ably. be as dead as Julius Caesar before
the next Presidential election. The dry
season now at hand IS likely TO see the
whole island Of Luzon overrun by our
troops. with garrisons established az all
stratoglcal places. and ass soon as that
