In his speech before the United States

LET each State control its own banking

what kind of money it shall be redeemed
in. Such action will furnish domestic
currency for the use of the people of that

BISHOP |. E. Joyce, of the Metho-
dist Church, who has had wide exper-
ence in the Missionary work in
China, is evidently man of bene-
violent and christ-like instinct. In a
recent lecture on the situation in
China he says, "If the commercial
and religious interests of the United
States cannot be cared for in any
other way, l advocate the use of
guns. 1t is time for the nations OF
the world to take the steps to bring
China to a realization of the benefits
OF civilization and Christianity. y
1t seems that the time has simply ar
rived for the Christian nations of the
earth to demonstrate that with all
their civilization and christianity
they are not above robbing and
numbering weaker nations; and that
they are not willing to accord others
the self-govcrnment and freedom OF
religious opinion which they pretend
to hold so dear themselves.

Chairman Jones Predicts Success

In response to request for his
views on the Democratic outlook
in the doubtful States of the middle
west, the following is from Senator,
Jones:
Owing to the fact that Mr.. Bryan
is now much better known and und-
erstood than he was in 1896, he is
stronger in every section ofthe coun-
try than he was at that time.
"The conviction is widespread that
the very life of the nation is involved
in the question of imperialism, while
the feeling is as general that the
financial independence of every in
dividual is involved in the struggle
for the control of the trusts. In add
dition to this, the coldblooded heart
lessness of the administration to-
ward the Beers is exciting most
general discussion. Hence | regard
our chances as vastly better than in
90.
Kentucky | regard as absolutely
certain for the Democratic party. A
majority vote was cast against the
present administration, and | know
none there who voted against the
administration then who will vote
for it in November.
