The Germans and Bryan.

Oswald Ottendorfer's Stats
Zeitung is not quite so exuberantIy
Bryanite as it appeared to be a few
weeks ago. That paper, in speak
ing of the fact that Bryan got 100,
900 fewer votes in New York in
1896 than Cleveland did in 1892,
SAYS that this "did not restrain the
New York delegation Gin the Kan
sas City convention), under Boss
Croker's control, from letting the
fight against Bryan and silver slide
in order to keep Hill from rising in
to prominence. Croker has to
show for this infamous conduct
only the fact that anti-imperialism
is made the paramount issue
No man can show how this issue
will take hold, and it is quite I'M
likely that it can make Bryan any
more palatable to New York vo-
ters."
This is the situation which will
present itself to all the honest men
of the country, Germans and
others. The bulk of the German
vote in New York, as in the rest
of the states, will be cast against
Bryan in 1900, as it was in 1896.
Ottendorfer and the rest of the
German independent or Demo-
cratic leaders in New York will be
supporting Mckinley this year as
many of them were four years ago.
All 1OOc dollar men know that the
attempt of the Bryanites to put
something else than base money at
the front is what the independent

clared that this was the chief trou-
BILE with the country; that there
was not enough money for the peo-
pie to do business with, and that
until we got more money, by the
free coinage Of silver at Is to /, the
nation could not emerge from its
depression and the people could
not prosper.
On the other hand the Republi-
can party maintained that there was
money enough if capital could only
be encouraged to do business and
the wage-earners thus could get
work. But, it was contended by
the Republican party, capital
would not engage in active work
when it would do so at loss, and,
consequently, with capital locked
up or idle, there could be no work
for the wagc-earner. Further
more, it was held in the Republi-
can argument that there was money
enough if business and industrial
conditions would encourage it to
circulate; but that so long as the
business and industrial conditions
remained as they were-and for
that state of affairs Bryanism it.
self was greatly responsible-mon-
ey simply would not circulate, no
matter how much of it there was
in existance and no matter how
much more of it, gold or silver,
should be coined.
Now the country did not in
crease its stock of money by the
free coinage of silver, as Mr..
Bryan urged and declared was nee
essary. It did, however, bring
about a change Of confidence and
the establishment of both of cap
ital and labor. And as result
the very thing happened which Mr..
Bryan solemnly declared would
not and could not happen. Money
began to circulate freely again,
and it proved that there was anu
pie currency, no, only to do the
business Of the country in its then
existing, extent but to do the re-
Gently enlarged business of the
country-enlarged by hundreds Of
millions of dollars. Whereas the
per capita circulation in 1896 was
$21.00, on June l, Of this year it
was $26.71.
Will MIR. Bryan explain to those
who voted for him four years ago
and to those whom he asks to vote
for him again this year how the
impossible-that is, what he de-
clared was the impossible-has
been made possible?-Ncw York
Press.

1t is enough to make the old-time
Democrat weep tears Of blood to
see his once proud old party down
in the dust before Populist auto
crat and humbled into doing his
imperial bidding. Bryan takes
few words of advice from Demo-
Gratis nowadays, he shapes his own
policies and along PopuIistic lines.
He associates himself more and
more closely with men Of off color
in politics, and if the Jeffersonian
spirit of the old Democracy raises
a. mariner of protest, as it did in
the Kansas City convention the
other day, it is promptly whacked
into silence with a club bearing
the inscription, ''Populist nomi-
nee." Bryan led the Democrats
into the Populist camp and then
calmly informed them that they
must either become Populists in
principles or die as party.

The Republicans have some hope
of carrying Missouri this year.
In order to accomplish this result
the party must and will make the
fight on state issues chiefly. The
issues are clearly drawn. A self
perpetuating, corrupt official ring
exists and has existed Mt jefferson
City for many years. Its abuses of
public confidence have become no.
torious, and whenever it is init
mated to these ringsters that they
might be held answerable for their
misdoings by their constituents,
they merely give laugh in deri-
sion. They have held power so
long and have fooled tho people of
Missouri so often that it is deemed
only necessary to hold up the in
sigma, ''Done in the name of Dem
ocracy," to secure absolution for
any form of official abuse and an
other lease of power from the
voters. However, the Republican
party in this state proposes to hold
the party in power in the full glare
Of its past iniquities, and the hon
est voter will sooner or later attend
to the rest.

A SiCkenlng Dose.

Bryan has again proved him.
self a bigger man than the Demo
cratic party by forcing specific
16 to 1 free silver or bust" plank
in the platform adopted at Kansas
City last Wednesday. This was
done against the advice and best
judgment of nearly all the promi-
nent party leaders from all sec
tions of the country; but they
finally bowed their heads and bent
their wills to that of the eminent
Nebraskan, who threatened over a
long distance telephone not to ac-
cept the nomination unless the
platform was constructed to suit
him. This meant that he woull /
run on the platforms Of the Pop
ulists and free silver Republicans
and defeat any other man the ma
tional Democracy might name as
its candidate for the presidency.
The ''bluff,' whether sincere or
otherwise, had its desired effect;
and the leaders of the great party
of jefferson smothered their con-
victions and inserted a plank in the
platform which they well know
from the experience Of the past
will ALLEVIATE the Eastern and mid
die Western states from the party,
without one or more of which
there is not the slightest hope of
Democratic success at the polls in
November next.
The plank in the platform that
calls for the Independence for the
Filipinos, a subject race confessedly
untitled for self government, while
this government shalt undertake
to protect them from foreign in
vasion, is by no means the least
of the inconsistencies and absurd
tiles of the Bryan dictated plat
form, and will never receive the
support and sanction of II majority
of the American people.
But we should not forget that
it is Mr.. Bryan who is again run
ming for President Of the United
States, and that, as in 1896, he
is not obliged or beholden to the
Democracy alone for the privilege.
We are only one of a three corner
ed political alliance of that distin-
guished gentleman's formation for
his own uses and purposes; and as
he controls, absolutely unequi-
vocally, three-thirds of the stock
in said politica! alliance, it is per-
haps meet and proper that he
should dictate all the platforms and
conduct the triple headed crusade
against a sound currency and the
bugbear Of imperialism as his own
sweet will and fancy listeth.

We are told by the Bryanite
press that large portion of the
Gcrman-American vote will leave
the Republican party on the issues
of imperialism" and ''nlilitarism."
The wish in this instance is evident
Iy the father of the thought. The
German-American citizen is an
intelligent voter and does not
rely upon the Democratic papers
to shape his political opinions for
him. There is less reason now for
him to believe that the Republican
party is leaning towards imperial
ism and compulsory military
service than there was at the close
Of the civil war, when the Demo-
Gratis raised the same cry of ''mili-
tary government" At that time
the German-American was loyal to
the union and has since adhered to
the party which preserved the
unity of the states. 1t will take
something more than gaseous iter-
ations of the Bryanites to disturb
the confidence of the German
American in the pure intentions of
party under whose direction the
land of their adoption has been
made refuge from the evils of
the militarism of the old world.

which is the mcst outspoken ''anti-
imperialist'' paper in the United
States, calls attention to the Bryan
lite fraud, and says that the en-
deavor to put trusts ahead of the
old planks and the declaration that
imperialism is to be regarded as
'thc paramount issue of the cam
paign' does not deceive anybody.

Organism to deal with, and all
over the country we see the same

OF course, the Germans will be in

Organism just as much as any other
element Of the American voters.

Of Democratic leanlngs, like the

condemning Organism, and are

canvass is the 45c dollar. A larger
