For Forsaking Bryan and His Sense,
less and Futile Policies,

William T. Baker. ex-president Of
the Chicago board OF trade, and Of the
Worlds Fair, and one of the leading
Democrats of Chicago, has made an
open statement of his purpose to vote
for Mckinley this fall
Mr.. Baker mas been we'll known in the
past for his convictions in favor of free
trade and for his aggressive interes. In
the work of the National Tariff Reform
League. Mr.. Baker says, however, that
even the Democratic doctrine OF free
trade has been abandoned for principles
that mean restriction OF trade, and,
through the populistic attitude on
trusts" u Limitation of all success
full enterprise within state lines"
The letter follows:
Hon. NJ. A. Hanna, Chairman Repub-
llcan National Committce:-My Dear
Slr:-The Democratic organization has
passed under the control OF public enc
mics, and no man who holds. to the
traditional doctrines of the party Is un-
der the Glightest obligation to follow
the present leaders.
The policies that guided the party
from Jefferson TO Cleveland have been
slde-tracked for the isms of PopulIsts
and anarchi5ts. Even free trade has
given way to Bryan's promise that he
will recommend such additional legis-
ls,ion MS may be necessary to dissolve
| every private monopoly which does
business outside of the state of its
origin"
The Democratic crusade against.eX-
pansion, termed imperialism" Is an
absolute sham. silly and hypocritical
invention to divert attention from
their revolutionary purposes. Expan-
| sion has been the policy and practice
OF the American people since the Pill
grims landed on Plymouth Rock. ard
no man who understands the real spir-
1t Of our Institutions can be frightened
by the phantom Of Imperialism which
Bryan has conjured up for this cam
paign only.
Since Napoleon Bonapartc. there has
been, no greater imperialist than Bryan
himself. His will is the law OF the
party that supports him. and, II elect
ed. he would endenvor 10 rule the entire
nation with the same hand. Napoleon
deluged Europe In blood to reach n
throne. and Bryan would not hesitate
to wreck every industry In the land TO
attnln the presidency.
This talk OF Imperialism Is like the
rattle OF the snake that hurts nobody.
| 1t is the head Of the reptile that Is dan
gerous, and there you Will find the free
silver bite. Et.Ez
The paramount Issue is exactly the
| same now that 1t was In 1896. II is l6
to and lawlessness. MS personlfed In
Bryan versus the gold standard aud
the security 1t brings. shall vote for
Mckinley Ms representing the latter

up all her allowance and was Obliged
to write home for funds. 1T would

always regarded as the hallmark of en-
riable distinction. His influence or nu-

his ability to get passes did not extend
far enough to cover the whole OF my
itinerary. I had to travel two hours to
meet 1t. and almost as far after 1t ter
minated. 1t provided free passage,
however, for at least two-thIrds OF the
Journey, and was elated.
"There were special rates about that
time to the city which was my destina-

godsend ordinarily. but which, in the
pride of my possession OF pass, dis
missed from my notice.
I'm view of the unexpected gift I
proceeded to add to the purchases
wherewith was terrifying myself for
vacation days. Little Injuries that I
had denied myself sternly seemed per-
fectly legitimate under changed condi-
TONS
Moreover. when I had started. I
found myself committing unwonted ex-
travagances, such as taking cab in
stead OF the street cars to the station,
letting n porter carry my bag and fee
ing him well. The strIngency Of my
money affairs ordinarily has precluded
my riding In a parlor car. but this time
/ decided to have that experience Of su-
perlorlty. on account OF the saving !
had made through my pass.

been for that demorallzing pass"

than that which Il wcll-known Eng

may usually be counted on to furnish
amusing and wholly unob1ectIonablc

himself little freer hand and the re-
suit, though moral enough. was per-

Erect Of High ana Low Tariffs.

That the protective tariff Is the basis
OF oil prosperity this country has en-
joyed, and that low Democratic tariffs
have brought depression and stagnation
TO business and Industry cannot be de-
MED when statistics corroboratc the as
sertion to which are added the
physical proofs. The frat three
years of McKinley's admin!strn-
tion compared with the SAINT. period OF
Cleveland's domination show u marked
Improvement In every line OF commerce,
industry and business conditions over
that OF the free trade times of Clcve-
land. The general effect of low and
protective tariffs ON imports, exports,
circulation, prices and other. facts is
shown by the records OF the department
Of agriculture. treasury department, In.
ter-state commerce commission and
other branches OF the government SER
vice In the protective year 1902, the low
thrift years OF 1895 and 1896. It Will be
found that In the low tariff YEARS 1895
and 1896 conditions were far less favor
able than those in 1892. the last, year
under President Harrison and the Nc
Kinley tariff. and In 1899. under Presl-
dent Mckinley aud the Dingley tariff.
Laying aside the question of general
conditions and taking up that OF the
various classes OF our citizens and bus
mess Industries as shown by official
records. the study Is equally interesting
and convincing as to the value Of pro-
lection. Let us take. FIRST general busi-
ness conditions during Il long term OF
years us shown by the records OF the
government and by accepted authorities
In business lines. No better general In
