Kinley's supporters. These foreigners
comprised fully one-half of the number
of votes received by Mckinley"
These are the words of the man who
conducted the Democratic campaign in
1896. The same man is the present chair
man Of the Democratic national com
mittee. He owes his position to the wish
of Mr.. Bryan.
The language quoted above was used
in a speech. 1t is no remembered scrap
of idle conversation. 1t was uttered in
no heat of discussion. 1t was a deliber-
ate expression.
Hundreds of thousands of ignorant
foreigners" said Chairman James X.
Jones Of the Democratic national com
mittee, who came here taking bread out
of the mouths of honest labor, voted at
the last election at the dictation of Nc
Kinley's supporters. These foreigners
comprised fully one-half the number of
votes received by Mckinley"
And then on tAs basis that the Re
publican party owed success in 1896 to
Ignorant foreigners" Chairman Jones
proceeded to hold out the hope of success
in 1900.
''Can there be any doubt" he asked
''as to which shall prevail, the six and
one-half millions of intelligent Bryan vot-
ers or the three and one-half millions
ignorant foreigners who voted for Nc
Kinley?"
1t will seem to sensible people almost
incredible that the chairman of the
Democratic national committee could
make such statements in public speech.
But the Honorable JAS. X. Jones did it.
More than two months after the cleo
ton of 1896 be uttered the assertion
quoted.
The occasion was no less serious Inan
an address before the Legislature of Ar
kansas. Senator Jones had just been
elected to his third term in the United
States Senate. On the Goth of January,
1897, the Senator appeared before an in
formal joint session of his State Legisla-
ture at the capitol in Little Rock. He
returned his thanks to the people of Ar
kansas through their representatives, the
Legislature, and then he proceeded to dis
cuss the defeat of Bryan, speaking as the
chairman of the Democratic national
committee and the head of the manage
ment Of the Democratic campaign. He
said that he believed devoutly that Bry-
an had been elected and was swind,ed
out of the presidency"
He declared his belief shat in 1900 the
bimetallic forces would win great vic

Why CORN PRICES ARE HIGHER

In 1896 there was a record-breaking
crop Of corn. amounting 10 2,2s3, $40, 1G5
bushels. The highest price, however.
corn reached that year in Chicago was
3O5s cents per bushel, during the month
Of April During no other month did the
price touch 80 cents. In September. at

low As 10y, cents. aud through the rest

| The Senator spoke for over an hour
| Running through his speech were two
| principal thoughts. One was this idea
| that Republican success had been achiev.
ed through the "ignoraft' foreigners" a
| result which the Senator resented in the
name of the native Southern population
which was more American"
| The other central idea with the Sen
ator was the injustice of the unequal
distribution of wealth. Upon this he
dwelt with almost the emphasis which
he gave to the Ignorant foreigners"
What has been the cause of this
great struggle?' the Senator asked. ''The
people are as honest and as industrious
as they ever were. What, then, was
| the matter? The last census report shows
that the wealth of the country was S65,-
to0,000,0 600, or about $1,000 to each fam
lily of five members" The Senator quot
ed figures to show the inequality in the
distribution of wealth. why was Mas
sachusetts so much better off than Ar
kansas? Were they more industrious
and more deserving?" He considered
that the Southern people rank fully up
to, if not ahead of, the people in the
balance of the country. The Southern
than those of the other States and there
fore more American.
At this point the chairman of the Dem
ocratic national committee made one of
the most remarkable of this series of
startling statements for Arkansas con.
sumption. He illustrated his Assertion
that the Southern people are more
American" than the rest of the country,
in this way:
at took the people of the combined
North and East four years to conquer
the Southern people, and the latter had
built for them pension list that was
appalling"
The Senator's speech bristled with as
sertions intended to incite the spirit of
class prejudice. He said:
"MiIlionaires and paupers grow on the
same bush. When you make million
aire you make dozens of paupers."
The men who advocated the gold stand
ard the Senator described as mo better
than a vile thief
The argument by which he led up to
this conclusion is interesting. The Sen
ator said that in 1865 the national debt
amounted to 81. $50, Sc. 600" He show
ed ''how many bales Of cotton would have
paid this debt then and how many now"
Then he proceeded:
The men who took the bonds then
gave greenbacks worth about Joe in gold.
Now they are paid in gold, thus doubling
the burden upoi the people. While 49,
200 bales of colt IN would have ,taid
the debt when it was contracted. it would
take 30,000,o00 bales now to pay it, with
cut interest" Senator Jones said that
he who undertook TO make t.4e people pay
more than they had contracted to pay
was no better than a vile thief
THE rich Northern States" the Sen
ator said. yet after this sort Of contest
Bryan received more than a million votes
in excess Of what Cleveland received in
1892. He believed devoutly that Bryan

DEMOCRATS UNFIT TO GOVERN
Why Ex-senator w. A. PETER Is Sup
porting Mckinley.

In published letter issued at Topeka
Kan, ex-U. S. Senate PETER Of thai
State says one of the principal reasons
why be leaves the Demo- Popuist party
is that it is not fit to govern the coun-
try. His exact words are:
"The Democratic party is not fit to
govern this county under modern condi-
| tioIs of universal freedom. Look back
upon the second administration of Presi.
dent Cleveland. Upward of $3.50, 900, 600
in United States bonds were sold with
| out special authority Of Congress TO pro
| cure gold for the redemption reserve.
Most Of the bonds Were sold to or through
syndicates of Spectators at enormous
profits.
The Republicans We're wiser. The
war with Spain made large expenditures
necessary; Congress authorized the bor-
rowing Of money, and $500, 100000 of 3
per cent bonds were sold to our own peo-
pie in sums of S25 to $500 This Is the
fourth year of the Mckinley administra-
ton. anG not one dollar of gold has been
rcGght or borrowed. The treasury now
holds nearly, if not quite, $3.50 000. 600
in gold coin and bullion, and there is
plentr of money in the country for the
transaction Of the peoples business"
On the Philippine question Mr.. PETER
says: The instruction of Aeuinaldo and
his followers must be completely and pel-
manent1y suppressed before civil govern
ment can be permanently established. In
the meantime the President is exerting
every effort to preserve order and protect
oil al. IL
''As before stated when one sovereign
power cedes territory to another, the al
legiance of the inhabitants is transferred
to the new sovereign. The same act
which transfers their country transfers
the allegiance of those who remain in IT,,
That is the language Of the Supreme
Court of the United States in the case of
the American Insurance Company VS..
Canter. l Peters, 511.
'Our national title to the Philippines
is as good in law as the titles we hold
for our homes; and the allegiance Of the
Filipinos to the United States is due the
same as that Of the people Of Alaska or
Hawaii or New Mexico, Arizona or Okla

Philippines, opening the way for free

We got into the Philippines as an in /
cident Of war. We arc holdicg them be-
