They shun Militarism.

A particularly pleasing indIca-
tion, politically, is the frequent
chronicling OF the announcement
that some we'll known German
American who supported McKin-
ley tour years ago has decided to
vote for Bryan this year. Imperi-
alism is invariably the cause. Oh
this issue OF imperialism and mill
tarism the German American has
a decided advantage over the
native American. He knows the
meaning Of those two words only
too we'll. His very presence in
America is proof ofthat. That he
will vote against imperialism goes
without saying. Il is safe to say
that ooo out of 600 will vote the
Democratic ticket, because OF the
party's stand on Imperialism and
militarism, except, OF course,
officeholders. Germans know
what imperialism means. The
issue with them is, Shall this re.
public live or die1 In order that
a favorable outcome may be the
result Ol this election the German
Americans almost to 4 man will
cast their ballots Tor Bryan and
Stevenson.

After CHINA, whatq

OF all the foreign entanglements
which Washington in his farewell
address so earnestly warned his
countrYmen to avoid, we'll saws
the New York HFrald. that which
might come from our mixing in
this Chinese business would be the
worst the most perilous. 1t would
be an ENHANCEMENT, not with one
foreign power alone, but with all
Of them, with consequen ces to the
welfare and destiny Of the nation
which it would be hard to overes-
innate or exaggerate,
What business have the United
States in Asia, any Way7 They
are not at war with China; they
have no interests in any Chinese
scramble; there is no earthly
reason why they should dispatch
a fleet or an army to co operate
with the allied forces, and none
why they should join European
concert to control the government
and determine the fate OF the
Celestial Empire.
To do so would be not only an
open disregard Of Washington's
solemn warning and the time hon
ored traditions ofthe Government,
but also a plain violat on of the
Constitution, which expressly for
bids the President to make war on
a foreign people or to send an army
abroad without the formal sanction
OF Congress.
Our Legitimate business and duty
in this affair are perfe city plain. It
is simply to protect the lives and
property Of American citizens, al
though some Of them, notably
meddlesome missionaries, have
done much to bring trouble on
their own heads. We must rescue
our Minister from danger in
Peking, but with this done, and
protection secured for American
life and property, our active part
in the affair ends. II we have any
future role it is to act as mediator
OF arbitrator IN the interests OF
peace and civilization.
The fact is that the ambitious
course Of the Government is but
another illustration OF the imper-
ialism that has got into the heads
OF Mr.. Mckinley aud his Republi-
can advisers, and VIII ch, it it keeps !
on, will lead the country into n !
sorts OF mischievous tomfoolery |
and danger. It is the logical Sc
quence to the Philippine imperial
ism. Unless a speedy, decisive
halt is called no one can tell where
1t will end. The "open door" as
a commercial advantage seems to |
have been turned into an "open
door" TO Chinese interference and |
foreign entanglements. For this
there is no reason, justification or
excuse. 1t is the most radical de-
parture from the traditional policy |
and principles OF the nation, and |
the most dangerous step in The
direction oi imperialism that the
United States have ever yet ven
tured to enter upon. That a great |
majority OF the American people
are opposed to it can hardly admit
OF doubt. Mr., Mckinley and the
Republican party will do we'll to
pause and reflect before going too
far in a course so iraught with
political risk to themselves, as we'll |
as evil to the country.
They have no business in China,
and had better keep out OF it.

RepubIican scarecTow Industry.
Finding that many Gold Demo
Gratis and Republicans are going
10 support Mr.. Bryan this year on
the issues oiimperialism and dtrusts,
in the belief that the Senate will
keep free silver from becoming a
practical question, the Mckinley
advoc ates are industriously labor
ing to show that the Republican
law which, as they boasted, fixed
the gold tandard upon the country
forever, has no elements OF per-
manence in 1t alter all.
In the first place they produce
figures which show that if the
Democrats are generally success
full in the elections this year and
two years hence they will be likely
to control the Senate after March
4, 1903. Very true. But do the
papers that make use Of this argu-
ment ever stop to consider what it
implies2 1t means that two years
of Organism" will be so satisfac-
tory to the country that it will
vote for more. There will be no
Democratic majority in the Senate
in 1908 unless there IS a Demo
cratic victory at the polls in 1909,
and there will be no Democratic
victory in 1902 unless the Bryan
Administration suits the public
taste.
The argument that "BryanIsm"
may control the Senate in 1903
hardly jibes with the assertion, so
frequently repeated, that the mere
advent of a Democratic Admins
tration will plunge the country into
ruin.
Another prediction, very fire.
quently put forth to scare the timid
Gold Democrat back to his hole,
is that even without new legisla.
ton Mr.. Bryan could and would
pay the interest on the public debt
in silver dollars. Professor J.
Lawrence Loughlin, OF the Uni
versity of Chicago, has committed
himself to that proposition, and
some Of our esteemed Mugwump
and Republican con emporaries
have eagerly seized upon it.
Perhaps Professor Loughlin and
our esteemed contemporaries
could tell where Mr.. Bryan could
get the silver dollars to perform
that leat with, but il the" possess
that know ledge they have not yet
taken the public into their conf
dence. According to the latest
returns the Treasury possesses
s,396,55a available silver dollars
and SI47o7s.4a of silver bullion in
the General Fund. All the rest Of
its standard silver coin and bullion
is held tor the redemption OF silver
certificates and Treasury notes. 1t
has S43,9S6, ,o3S.34 OF gold coin and
bullion in the General Fund and
$3.50, 900, 900 in the Reserve Fund.
The truth is that it the Govern
ment's creditors should suddenly
take a notion that they wanted to
be paid in silver the favor would
haYe to be refused. When Mr.,
Bryan takes office he will find
available silver the scarceSt thing
in the Treasury. And there will
be no means Of getting any more
without new legislation. Every
opportunity is offered for acquiring
more gold, both by bond issues
and by free coinage, but there are
no legal means OF increasing the
supply of silver.
Wall street has had a good many
senseless scares, but even Wall
street could hardly be upset by the
fear of a hood Of 8,3o6,55a silver
dollars out of total available cash
in the Treasury OF about $3.50. 600, ?
600.

behind him, singing, came six million
five hundred thousand valiant men to
that unequal fight.
And the story Of how well he fought
how fenrlessly he fell, and
how dearly the enemy's victory was
bought; has all gone out into history
now.
Back from his FIRST battle" he came,
Il bafiicd but unconquered hero Of the
rights of man. Conscious of the recti-
tude of his purpose, and cheered by the
belief that no issue Is ever settled un-
til 1t IL settled right" he cheerfully
acquiesced in the result of that cam
paign and girded his loins for the next
great contest between the dollar and
the man.
For four years he has wagcd an I'M
ceasng warfare against the peoples
enemies; for four years he has held
up the party's standard and his voice
has cheered the hosts of Democracy
In every state and territory.
When the trusts began to increase
under the protection of a Republican
Administration, lie was the first 20
point out the danger and prescribe 81
remedy.
When the alarms of war for human
ity reused the heroic spirit of our land,
lie offered his sword TO his country's
cause Oh the day that war was de-
clared.
When later he saw the Administra
ton departing from the ancient land
marks of our institutions, in its en-
chanted dream of empire and milltar-
ism, he was the first to raise wan
ing voice, and resignlng his commits
sion on the day the treaty of peace was

test for the rescue Of the republic.

ment He, like the mighty Hercules,
raised it high above the sordid sphere
from which its strength was drawn
and OH II plane of lofty patriotism he
strangled it.
With the issues now clearly drawn,
no doubt remains as to the name of
our candidate. On that question we
are a reunited democracy.
Already worthy allies, differing from
us rather in name than in faith, have
shouted for our gallant leader again,
and every state and territory has ms
tructed it's delegates to this convention
to vote for him here. SO il only re-
mains for Nebraska to pronounce the
name that has been thundered from
the foot of Bunker Hill, and echoed
back from Sierra's sunset slope, and
that reverberates among the pineclad
snow-capped hills of the north, and
rises up from the slumbcring flower
scented Savannah of the south, and
that name is the name of William Jen-
nings Bryan, her best loved son.

Rev. Green preached from the text

II am not ashamed Of the gospel Of
Christ for IL Is the power Of God un-

the discourse, and the preacher urged
upon his hearers the fact that the
