Soon We Shall Have To.-some
More Puzzlers.
just as we said the Bulletin does not
answer a single one of the REVIEWS
questions, no other democrat steps in
to answer them. We repulish the ques.
ton and here are some more:
Does the treaty with Spain make
any guarantees as to rights to be given
Spanish commerce for the next ten
yearsY
Does the treaty make the United
States responsible for the property
rights and safety of foreigners residing
in the Philippines?
What democratic senators voted to
ratify that treaty?
Is W. j. Bryan denouncing that
treaty today?
Did not w. j. Bryan make special
trip to Washington to urge democratic
senators to vote for the treaty the
terms OF which he is now denouncing?
1t any other man should do such a
thing would you not call him dema-
gague?
The following are the unanswered
questions as published last week:
Did or did not the Iowa democratic
convention of 1899 endorse and reaffirm
the national democratic platform of
1896?
Did or did not the national demo
cratic platform of 1896 contain the
paragraphs as above printed?

present?
Have or have we not monometallism
at present?
| Would or would not democratic
victory resulting in democratic nation
al supremacy be followed by free coin
age of silver at the ratio of l6 to 1?
Why is the republication of a por-
ton of your own national platform of
1896 as reaftirmed by your own state
convention of 1899, distasteful to you?
