brilliant and successful soldier Of the
war, lost his life through the machin-
atoms OF the Anti-Imperialistic League,
Before his death he discovered con-
elusive evidence that the enemy he was
lighting In the Philippines was the
Anti-Imperialistic League OF the Unit
ed States, and that IL his life was sac
rIficed the league would be respcnsi-
bic. A few days before his death he
said:
II would to God that the truth Of
this whole Philippine situation could
be known to every one in America as
I know II.
IF the real history, Inspiration and
conditions OF this insurrection and
the influences. Iocal and external, that
now encourage the enemy, as well as
the actual possibilities OF these islands
and peoples and their relations to this
great East could be understood ut
home we would hear of no more talk
OF unjust shooting government into
the Filipfnos, or of hauling down our
nag in the Philippines.
IF the so-called Auti-Impertalisss
would honestly ascertain the truth on
the ground. and not In distant Ameri-
ca, they whom l believe to to be hon.
est and misinformed would be convtnc-
ed Of the error of their statements and
conclusions. and OF the unfortunate ef-
feet of their publication here.
''If am shot by Filipino bullet 1t
might as well come from one OF my
own men. because l know by observa-
tions. confirmed by captured prisoners,
that the continuance of fighting is
chiefly due to reports that are sent out
from America"
Evidence exists to corroborate Cen
eral Iawton's statement, which, IL
printed. would fill volumes. The Anti
Imperial League cannot excuse its
crimes against the United States by
contending that the United States Is
wrong and that the rebels are right.
The citizens OF the United States who
assist the enemy when war exists are
guilty OF treason, and cannot plead In
their defense or in extenuation OF
their crimes what they imagine to be
the wrongs of the government In wag-
ing war. The crime of treason Is COM
plete when aid or comfort is extend
ed TO the enemy. There can be no
doubt that the Anti-Imperial League Is
unpatriotic, anti-American, and engag-
ed in a criminal conspiracy against the
United States. When Mr.. Bryan af-
iiliated with the league and secured Its
support he betrayed his American fol-
lowers and became the candidate of
the enemies OF the United States both
at home and abroad To his inordin-
ate ambition and unparalleled Efforts
TO become president must be attributed
his biased judgment and unbalanced
mind He win not be president

sought to spread the impression that
he acquiesced in the shifty effort of the
Kansas City platform makers to OBJ
scure the partys renewed and explicit

that occasion Orator Pun voice struck

an apology-an apology lacking in eth

labored attempt to gloss over the po-
litical embarrassments into which he
has fallen through trying to swap is
sues in the very midst of presiden-

AN OLD ISSUE.
Imperialism Resorted to by Demo

Imperialism Resorted TO by Demo
Gratis When short of Real Issues
To those not familiar with political
history. the present bugnboo of Demo
cratic Imperialism may seem an en-
tirely new question in American poll
tics
But such Is not the case Whenever
1t has been lacking In other issues to
attract the attention of the country. the
Democratic party has always fallen
hack upon the issue of Imperialism.
Here is a quotation from the Demo
cratic platform of lssiS:
In demanding these measures and
reforms. we arrsign the Radical party
for its disregard OF right and unpar-
alleied oppression and tyranny which
have marked its career. After the most
solemn and unanimous pledge OF both
houses of Congress to prosecute the
war exclusively for the maintenance Of
the government and the preservation
Of the Union under the constitution Ii
has repeatedly violated the most sa-
cred pledge under which alone WAS raj
lied that noble volunteer army which
carried our flag TO victory. Instead of
restoring the Union. il has. SO far as
In its power. dissolved IL. and subjected
ten states. in time of profound peace.
TO military despotism and negro su-
premacy Ii has nulliiied there the
right of trial by jury; it has abolished
the habeas corpus. that most sacred
writ OF liberty; it has overthrown the
freedom OF speech and press, il has
substituted arbitrary seizures and ar
rests and military trials and secret
star-chamber inquisitions for the con-
stitutional tribunals, ii has disregarded
in time OF peace the right of the peo-
pie to be free from searches and seiz-
urcs; IL has entered the post and teie-
graph offices. and even the private
rooms OF individuals and seized their
private papers and letters without any
specific charge or notice of affidavit, as
required by the organic law. Ii has
converted the American capitol into a
hastile. II has established n system OF
spies and Official espionage to which no
constitutional monarchy OF Europe
would now dare to resort

merely because he would not prosti-
