Bryan and Altgeld Speak at Democratic
Club Banquet in Louisville, Ky.
The Young Mems Democratic Club Of
Louisville rendered banquet at the
Gait house last evening 10 Judge James
=. Taryin, at which Mr.. Bryan aud
other distinguished men in attendance
ut the convention Of the Ohio Valley Bi-
metallic League, were present, and at
which 300 plates were laid.
MIR. Bryan responded to the toast "The
Democratic Party" speaking briefly,
saying that the committee had arranged
for his return Friday ut which time he
would speak more fully. ln his speech
ho said that in the campaign Of 1896 the
party was compelled 10 rely ON new men
because Of the descrtion Of old ones, and
~ a result many new stars appeared in
the armament OF the party. lie liked
the Democratic party M business or.
ganization for the carrying out Of Ger
tain fixed beliefs. lie touched on th,
Chicago platform in his usual strain,
saying il was written for all time, and
not for ono campaign.
Altgeld. "ln all ages there have
been men and women ready TO fight ior
humanity. The social conditions as they
exist today are making hyenas Of men.
There are men filled Win no thoughts
but those Of selfish commcrcialism
There are certain combinations control
ing the utilies of our country known ~
monopolies, aud the Republican party
says; Let the few individuals have the
benefit OF those, but the mission of the
Democratic party il to see that the COM
munity operates and receives the bene-
NJ Of these instead Of few financial or
carnations. The question Of the pres
ont age Is that Of municipal aud govern
mental ownership of public franchises.
This question marks the next forward
step OF humanity"
Following MIR, Aligeld the Hon.

upon unwilling peoples and subject
races, in order that our country may

his speech, which seems To have met
with great layer at the hands of gath

a plea that our nation should not de
scend from It's lofty height to engage in

practically forced upon our country
by the events in Cuba and the
humane sentiment at home. Congress
unanimously ordered the President to
declare war, with no thought Of acquir-
ing the Philippines. But Of all events
Of the war, the one most lionized by
the American people is the taking Of
Manila Bay where Dewey sank the
Spanish feet. 1t is not 'in the nature
of the Anglo-Saxoon race TO give up
the territory we became rightful masters
of as Successors 10 the Spanish sover-
enigity.
All we wish TO point out is that
these public men from Mr.. BRYAN
down, voluntarily and vociferously
demanded q war with Spain under the
then existing circumstances, out Of the
results Of which they now seek to
make political capital and reap polit-
ical advantage. viii they not write
themselves down in history as highly in
consistent? II they would turn around
and say: "We were in favor Of this war
against Spain from the bottom Of our
hearts. We voted in congress and spoke
and acted az private citizeus in favor of
war We uphold the national govern
ment, and the honor Of our country
against the world, and shall do so until
permanent peace is established. We do
not uphold the manner i'm which the
war was conducted and we oppose a
military government in the islands. But
we stand by our country and our coun-
try's flag in every effort and TO the last
stroke to uphold its sovereignty at
home or abroad" Such an attitude
would compel respect and help bring
the war in the Philippines to close.
Then we would differ radically, per-
haps, as 10 the political form Of govern
ment, or commercial regulations and
methods Of taxation TO be pursued.
Mr.. Bryan's talents as an organizer, rs
n political leader, would shine forth far
greater If, after foreign war was de
clared, he had east politics to the wind,
and entered the army to remain until
permanent peace was established. As
Douglas cast his fortunes with Lincoln
in the war of the Rebellion, he should
have been first and foremost to fight un-
der Mckinley and leave all criticism and |
firing in the rear To the newspapers. To |
attempt 10 make political capital against |
popular foreign war If suicidal to the |
party that undertakes il. Nothing is so |
popular with the American people as a |
successful foreign war. Il has elected |
and reelected every candidate who ever
ran for the presidency on that issue, and
it will again.
II this whole issue is summed up in |
the campaign Of 1900, it will present it.
self thus: "Why should we withdraw |
American sovereignty over the Philip /
pines, any more than over the Ladrones,
the Sandwich Islands, over Cuba, over
Porto Rico, over Alaskan All are the |
results of an expansion policy. Why |
draw the line on the Philippines? We
must say the prospect of governing the |
Philippines is not an inviting one. But
how get out Of the responsibilities Where |
comes in the difference in principle? !
We are not discussing now the good that
may come to M ~ Il nation, or To the /
progress OF the world aud civilization
from the policy of American Expansion. !
That il quite another matter.

tion, the very foundation on which rests
the structure of his able and eloquent
plea against expansion, is fallacy to-
wit: That the policy Of expansion (if
what has been forced upon the Ameri-
cans as an accident Of history and by
the inevitable logic Of events can be
called policy is in contravention Of
the Declaration of Independence. Just
government founded upon the consent
Of the governed implies the antecedent
proposition that these people to be gov
erned possess the intelligence to give
their consent To understand that dec
laration Of the colonial forefathers (who
wrested their rights from Great Britain
| by revolution, and did not gain their
separation from the mother country be-
cause some other power whipped Eng
land it must be remembered that they
had been exercising the rights Of local
self-goyernment in limited degree for
centuries. The Anglo-Saxons brought
that priceless heritage with them from
the forests Of GAmany, established the
representative system and township
government in England, when they dis
placed the Romans and carried the idea
with them to Holland and back across
the Atlantic and planted it forever on
the shores Of New England as il has
never entered into the brain Of Tagal,
Malay or West Indian negro.
II is doubtful if the capacity for self
government exists beyond the confines
OF an Anglo-Saxon population. The
ability TO give consent to laws proposed
for the government of people does not
apply to people who have not yet shown
ability TO establish any form of govern
ment, whatever. 1t is principle that
applies after government is established
for the protection Of the governed II
after the Americans have established
local governments in these various is
lands, they undertake 10 force laws upon
the people of the islands that are repug-
nant TO their people, the principle might
be invoked for their protection. But il
has no application 10 the extension of
American sovereignty to new territory.
But it is probably unbecoming for a
western editor 10 handy words with
one Of the sages Of New England on a
question Of fundamental law We as
sert the right Of western man to have
our western understanding of the matter
just the same as II welived i'm Duxburyor
South birmingham. II is not true that
the Spanish war or the control Of the
territories surrenderd by Spain is in vic
lation Of the principles for which our
Revolutionary fathers fought. II would
have been as sensible TO ask the consent
Of the Indians in the wildernesses we
wrcsted from Great Britain az to ask the
Of the populations in the con-
quered territory once belonging 10 Spain.
We use the word conquered in the
legal as well as the higher sense Of con-
quest through war for humanity. By
all the rights of international law and
the higher law that might makes right,
we are in possession OF the islands of the
seas lately belonging TO Spain, and when
did the Anglo-Saxon race fail 10 keep
such possessions?
