self a populist, now declares himself
democrat. Governor Rogers, dyed
in-the-wool populist; nominated and
elected as such, has followed suit, and
even Bob Bridges. who out-popped old
populist himself, agreed to be swal-
lowed UP in the democratic party. and
to be good and not annoy his new
found brethren with single tax trou-
bles. In the direction, therefore. OF
making the populist leopard change
his spots. and to choose its new spot
in the democratic jungle, Mr.. Bryans
tour is no doubt a success. With these
prominent populists born again as dem
ocrats, fusion will be easier.
However, there is no doubt that as
a means Of increasing the vote OF the
opponents of republican principles,
Mr.. Bryans tour in the state Of Wash
ington is a failure. Mr.. Bryan, with
all his eloquence, his tricks OF ora
tory, and glibness OF quotation, has
made no converts from the republican
ranks, but quite the reverse.
The people Of Washington are aware
Of the benefits to come to this state,
the rest Of the Pacific coast and the
country from expansion, and Mr.. Bry-
ans "anti-imperialism" and his talk
about the bayonets Of our volunteers
being turned against the citizens Of
this country, are having a contrary
effect from that desired. Former fu-
sionists are being driven out Of the
party by these doctrines, as were thou
sands Of honest money democrats four
years ago by the free silver fallacy.
The people are satisfied with the
bridge that has carried them safely
over. They are prosperous and have
no use for the preacher Of calamity,
who can see nothing but disaster un-
less change is made-and the change
he urges is TO the conditions which
made hard times and adversely, from
which republican policy rescued the
country.
The doctrine that Mr.. Bryan urges
that We let go Of the Philippines
Ould be especially disastrous to the
Pacific coast. aside from any questions
Of duty and honor, and the more he
breaches that In Washington the small
er will be the fusion vote next fall.
Washington will give this year the
largest republican majority ever known
and part OF that result will be due
to Mr.. Bryan's visit and inslstence
upon doctrines 80 utterly opposed to
the ideas and interests Of the people
Of this state.

THE SPECTRE OF BRYANrsM.

A Washington correspondent says:
The Philippine commission is meeting
with one difficulty that may prove en-
barrassing TO Il in securing the SER
vices OF trained men for the important
work for which they are needed in the
Philippines. The commission cannot
engage an expert in any line for any
certain period Of time. II cannot as
sure the superintendent Of the school
system. for instance. tina. he win be
employed longer than March 4 next.
the fact that president is to be elect
ed In the meantime and that one may
be chosen who win not approve Of the
commission idea. or that congress may
in the meantime enact legislation do
ing away with the commission and
stopping its work makes the tenure Of
such employees most uncertain. Nat
urally. then. men holding positions OF
responsibility and authority that are
practically permanent are 10th to ac-
cept an appointment under the Philip
pine commission. even though the sal
aries attached are considerably higher
than those now received. And the Phil
ipplne commission. while not paying
exorbitant salaries. proposes to pay
wen for expert service. Judge Taft,
to be sure. gave up a position of hon.
or and responsibility that was per-
manent to become chairman of the
commission. but Judge Taft was ac-
tuated chiefly by patriotic motives.
and was probably in a better position
to make sacrifices than some of those
whom the commission would like to
employ.
