the contest for State offices is an exceptionally
accurate measure of the relative gains ana

1s96-all winning Republican years-the plu-
ralities rose to 26,603. 2s995 and 1851 There
were many reasons why the unexampled ma
iority of 1896 should not be repeated this Sep
TENDER. Four years ago the Democratic or
ganization in Vermont was in a condition OF
suspended vitality and little no effort was
made to poll the normal party strength. BY
1885, however, the Democratic leaders had raj
lied their following sufficiently to reduce the
present Republican Governors plurality nearly
$1,000, to %. S69. This years increased plural
ity of over 31OO0-the largest but one in the
States history-is convincing evidence of the
continued hostility Of Eastern sentiment to
Organism and all it stands for, and of the ac-
tive re-enlistment in the second struggle to
defeat the Nebraska leader of all the interests

facts For obvious reasons there lis and can De
no perfect analogy between Cuba and the
Philippines. Our relations with the two have
from the beginning been essentially and neces-
sarily different But in so far as these would
be rebukers of the Administration propose an
analogy, let us see what its purport is.
Treat the Philippines as we treat Cuba. says
Mr. Bryan-that is to say, first give them
stable form of government, next give them In
dependence and finally protect them from all
outside interference That is the antl-McKinley
formula, those three things, in that order. OBJ
serve, then how, instead of rebuking 1t actual
" approves and vindicates the Presidents
policy. For the order is government first and
all else afterward. That is the order pursued
In Cuba We have been giving that island
stable form of government for more than
year, and have not yet given it anything else.
And no man yet knows exactly what else is to
be established in Cuba Thus, says Mr.. Bryan,
should dc in the Philippines. But that Is
exactly what Mr.. Mckinley is doing and has
been doing. He has sent civil commissioners TO
the Philippines, Just as he did to Cuba to con-
fer with representative Filipinos, just as with
representative Cubans. for the purpose of es-
tablishing a stable form of government in the
Philippines just as in Cuba, leaving all else for
after settlement, as ascertained conditions shall
toration of order and establishment of stable
government essential prerequisites to all
else in the Philippines as they were In Cuba
So much for the analogy between the Presi-
dents treatment of Cuba and his treatment of
the Philippines It is sufficiently complete and
satisfactory. It comes to grief the moment we
try to extend it to the conduct of the Cubans
and that of the FilipinOs. The trouble arises
from the fact that the Filipinos, or Aguinaldo's
faction of them, under the direct Indictment of
Mr. Bryan and his friends, refuse to be treated
as the Cubans have been. They refuse to let
the United States give them-as Mr.. Bryan de-
mands-"a stable form of government" a
preliminary to any degree of self-government.
They refuse to let the United States pacify the
islands and restore order and establish sound
principles of civil administration. as it did in
Cuba. They demand that while the islands are
in an unsettled condition, tribe warning against
tribe, and before the governmental desires of
the people have been or can be asCertained and
before any decent government whatever is gen
orally established, the United States shall with
draw and leave them to anarchy. It is just
because they refuse to let the United States
treat them as it has treated the Cubaus that all
the trouble has arisen. And If President Nc
Kinley's policy is responsible for that trouble
that is because he has done the very thing
which his critics are clamoring for and which
they are "rehuking" him for not doing.

BILE anxiety by the fOrecasters and omen read

oversanguine managers of Colonel Bryan's sec
