of the people was thwarted, and there
were grave apprehensions then that
If the Democratic party insisted upon
securing the fruits of it's victory a
Republican President would use the
army to perpetuate Republican rule.
With an imperialist President in the
White House, a Republican majority
in Congress and a large standing ARMY
ready to carry out the orders of HhN
administration, the people OF the
United States would have no guaran-
tee that the popular will would be
respected in the future any more than
1T was ait the time Mr.. Tilden was
cheated out of THE Presidency.
There was never a TIME in the his
tory of the United Staues when iohe
American people needed ITO be more
vigilant and more jealous of their
liberties. If they decide next Novem-
ber to continue tine Republican ad-
ADMINISTRATION in power they will have
only themselves ITO blame if uhe mill
tary power of the Government, which
is now employed to crush liberty in
the Philippines, is largely increased
and employed to destroy the liberties
of the people of this country. The
Republican pa1'ty-lthe party of i'm
perialism-invites the American peo-
pie ito sanction the establishment of
a powerful standing army and the con-
tinuance of an unconstitutional policy
i'm the islands acquired from Spain. If
the people put club in the hands of
the imperialists they need not be sur
prised if lit is used to belabor AmeTi-
cans when they seek to overthrow THE
administration The only safe course
of the American people is ITO remain
true ITO THE principles upon which this
Republic was founded, Ito put an end

any assertion of. unconstituti onal prin-
ciples by partisan Congress. Above
all things, they should resist any ten
dency toward militarism, lest The

against them. No man who votes in
telligently next November will ignor
these considerations. .-Baltimore Sun.

The American business Mans Pace
Demands Easily Digested Dishes.
"There was in the old days far less
wear and tear upon the nerves, and,
under such conditions, digestion was
more completely performed" writes
Mrs. S. L. Rorer of "Why 1 Am OPP
posed to Pies" in The Ladies' Home
Journal. "The mothers of today must
look more carefully to the building of
their bodies and brains than their
mothers and grandmothers did. In
deed at the pace at which we Ameri-
cans are going we use our brains at
full speed nearly all the time. What
man can build brain and Drawn on
pies, layer cakes OF preserves or any
other mass of material which from its
very compleXity requires labor and
time for digestion, drawing the blood
from the brain to the stomach during
his working hours? Observe those who
eat their complex foods carelessly and
hastily and you will see at a glance
the conditions that necessitate q COM
plete rest every now and then, or an
early nervous breakdown.
"In my close observation in the last
20 years l find very few people in ouI
common struggle for existence who car
for any length of time eat carelessly OF
complex foods. At 40 or 80 a man may
perhaps have accumulated wealth, but
not health. and of what earthly use is
the first without the second? Many
persons in the generation gone before
have eaten pies at least once a day
but they have not had meat three times
a day, nor have they rushed at oul
pace. They gave more time to the di
gestion of the pie. People who recon
mend these rich foods rarely know any
thing of their complex conditions ant
still less of the complexity of diges

A staff correspondent i'm yesterdays
North American, occupies four col
umns of that paper in explaining why
Bryan will win in Delaware. The
correspondent attributes hhe certain
failure of Mr.. Mckinley to carry the
State ito the factional troubles of the
Republican party. Had the writer
simply stated Mr.. Bryan will carry
Delaware because the Democratic
party will carry the State, he might
have condensed that article consider
ably. He wouldn't have filled the
space, Ito be sure, but he would have
hit THE solid truth with much more
