MILITARIS M.

Some of the leaders of the demo.
cratic party, assisted by some of the
democratic newspapers, are trying
to scare the people of our country
by crying militarism! militarism!
and point for example to France,
end with a look of horror ON their
faces, and quivering in their voices
they site US to what they think we
are coming too.
Congress has provided that we
have standing army of something
near 100000, but do we not need it =?
With our new possessions, Hawaii
Porto Rico and the Philippines,
where a part of our soldiers will
have to he stationed, Then we
should at least have thirty or forty
thousand soldiers at home.
There is no comparison between
this country and the country OF
France. We are at peace with one
another, our President is not driven
to the necessity of securing a pri-
waite body guard. President Nc.
Kinley is trusted by the people
and he in return trusts them
President Loubet of France, always
has strong guard to accompany
him. France, since the time of Ma
poleon has been more or less ruled
by the army. Our Chief Executive
rules the army, he and the Secre'
tary of War rule the generals and
not the generals rule them. Here
the people are the power behinC
the throne, not SO in France.
We are a wealthy nation, anC
can afford to protect our citizens by
a strong army and navy without
over burdeniug our citizens will
taxes, the brunt of which fall or
the rich and not the poor of our ma
tion. The line to prepare for wal
is in time of peace, we found thai
so in the case of our war will

COL. WILLIAM j. BRYAN.

Col. VIM. j. Bryan, the democrat
ic leader, is lgreat theorizer. He
goes from one theory to another.
He expounded the cause of free sill.
yer for over three years. His elo-
quent tongue has never ceased
since the time of his nomination at
Chicago in 1896. When his party
took up the cry about expansion, he
held aloft the anti-expansion BAN
ner, and by his influence, and the
influence of others of his party, de-
layed the ratification of the Treaty
of Peace between Spain and the
United States, and by so doing
gave encouragement to Aguinaldo,
and his followers. Now Bryan
with other democratic leaders are
"harping" about the trusts.
But his greatest theory is, what
will be the most beneficial to Col
w. J. Bryan? And how can he Sc
cure the next Presidential Nomi-
nation from the democratic party
So he takes up every idea cast out
by the leaders of his party, and like
drowning man grabs al straws.
We suppose he will theorize how
to secure the support of his "popo-
cratic" friends, for we feel sure he
will need them in the event of hi;
securing the nomination.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1899-09-30

The Navigation Bureau of the
navy issued a list of vessels of the
United States navy of ali kinds,
making the surprising showing of
312 craft. This includes many small
vessels and craft captured in Cuba
and the Philippines, but the show
ing is, nevertheless, remarkable in
comparison with the naval list of
two years ago.
The Maryville times. (Maryville, Tenn.) 1884-1944, 1899-09-30

The democrats Of Ohio, covered
themselves with glorv (mud) when
they adopted resolutions condemn
ing the Philippine war. They
brought down upon themselves the
righteous Indignation of some of
their democratic brethren. Their
thrust was like the boomerang, it
returned and fell upon their own
heads.
