M'KINLEY is WINNING.

the respect and good graces of his fell
low-citizens is not confined to his own
party, but extends to all classes, re-
CARELESS of partisanship. In proof of
which see the following estimate of him
from the democratic Brooklyn Eagle:
"In 1896 the question was Mckinley
or Bryan? Most Americans. we are
sure, are glad il was Mckinley. lie had
the experience in congress and the ex-
perience in politics which enabled him
to obtain necessary legislation in
great emergency. He had the knowl-
edge OF a man which enabled him To
put at every point OF peril or of emer-
gency agents who were equal to what
was required of them. He has had the
concilatory, yet firm, the quiet, yet In
sistent temper, which has enabled him
to have his way at the last, by permit
ting all others to have their say at first.
He has wisely used, on well-chosen oc-
casions. rare capacity for luminous
public statement and for moral appeal
to the people who have made up their
minds in his favor against al criticism
and easuistry and aspersion. He has
maintained the organization of his
party intact; he has greatly extended
the civil service rules and he has estab-
lished for himself hold ON the homes
and hearts of plain Americans that
cannot be mistaken, and that can we'll
nigh he compared 20 the hold which
Lincoln himself had under circum-
stances analogous to those in which
Mr.. Mckinley has been placed"

ly that / had TO try a heavier piece,
which startled him with grunt OF sur
prise and pain. In about three sec
onds his eye fell upon that family IL
Illuminated wax figure, and, with a howl
OF terror that made my own nerves
Jump, he ran for his boat as II he were
trying 10 break a record. His com
panion wasn't more than five seconds
after him, and the two fought like mad
men in their attempt 10 shove off and
get away. To make the effect per-
mnnent, ] grabbed my dummy, and,
holding the lantern so that it's rays
would be reflected back upon IL, glided
swiftly after them. The horror OF the
thing had reduced their cries TO in
articulate gasps, and they worked like
demons 20 get out where the wind
would ill their sail; so, as II was low
tide, | waded after them, holding
Br'er Miguel high enough 10 give
him the appearance OF walking upon
the water.
When | finally waded back to shore,
II was getting gray behind Tiniquio, so

der several layers OF copra bags, where
he was likely 10 be undisturbed, but
where | could get him in short order IL
his services should be required again.
Then, hurrying back to my proa, l
dumped the cargo OF specie overheard
in four feet Of water, where IL could
easily be found whenever there should
be an opportunity for secreting 1t.
This affair so thoroughly awakened
me TO the danger OF delay that re-
moved all the remaining treasure from
the wreck in one big load, next trip.
Standing for the last time In the laza-
retto OF Nuestra Sonora de Sevilla,

as though | were saying good-by to an
old friend; for I shall probably never
see her again. There was something
wonderful In the way she had guarded
those millions for me all the years
since they first disappeared under wa
ter. and | spcculated little as TO
whether strict honesty wouldn't re-
quire my searching for heirs of the
original owners. This didn't trouble
me very long, however. The risks Hal
stead and ] had undergone, and the
way we had worked the problem out to
q successful result, seemed TO give us

THE DEMOCRACY.
and Helpless Condition by
Party Paper.

Let us face the facts, let us no longer
deceive ourselves. The democratic
party to-day is without character and
standing in the nation. IL has lost the
confidence, IL not the respect of the
great body of intelligent, thoughtful
men of this country. What does the
party stand for? What are its princi-
pies? What man Is there in this party
to-day who can stand up with any sort
of confidence and declare them? Does
democracy stand for Imperialism or ex-
pansion? Bryan answers one way and
Jones the other. Does il stand for free
silver or the single gold standard?
Bryan and Jones answer one way;
Croker and a distinguished member OF
the national democratic committee an
swer another. Does the party stand for
tariff reform or protection? Nobody
knows, for the Chicago platform de-
clared that that question was retired
until the meney question should have
been settled.
Where are the party leaders? Where
are the great men of the past who could
upon any occasion, at any time OF the
day or night, IL called upon, stand up
and with accuracy and confidence pro-
claim democratic doctrines? There are
no leaders, there Is no man or set of men
who are recognized to-day as the
mouthpieces Of the party. There was
so-called leader OF the minority forcts
in the house of representatives. He
raised constitutional question and
called upon the democrats in the house
to stand by him in the position that he
assumed but when the test came more
than 40 members of his party voted
against him, and he then and there re-
signed.
Alas for the party of Thomas Jeffer-
sonl Surely IL has fallen upon evil
times. 1t is paying the penalty of the
folly of 1896. Every prediction that we
made when il then went astray has been
fulfilled, or is about TO be fulfilled. IL
must reorganize upon true democratic
platform or 60 to pieces. Gentlemen
may mock at this, as they Knocked at 1t
in 1896, but IL is the truth. Those who
then forsook the old ship must come
back TO the little band of democrats
who remained and kept the eolors fly
ing, or be wrecked. Richmond (Na)
