To the thoughtful and rejecting citi-
zen who watches the campaigning of
Bryan as he hurries from place q place
thru the country there is much To IN
6pire disgust not to say alarm over the
possibility that such an agitator may
become president. He is constantly APP
pealing to people from the lowest riane.
and attempting to excite class pre- JUDGE.
to sound notes of alarm and To make
the most of calamity pleas. His speech
at Quincy, ILL.,. yesterday was a sample
of his pessimism, and it was one thar
came from ealdron Of venom. one thar
inspires contempt for this instigasor Of
calamity. No other advocate Of revo-

Working his own undoing. Mr.. Bryan's;
cause cannot prosper from the moment
that he begins to cry out that Amer

critics OF Americans. When Mr.. Bryan
talks Of the menace of an arm,, of 100. .
900 men in a nation of 75.OOOO00 people
is he a statesman, a mischief maker or
fool? Mr.. Bryan has a solid month of.
campaigning before him. leading up IL
election day. He should bear carefully
in mind during that critical period that
the people of the United States Will not
begin the new century by electing him
president to save them from becoming
helots. They are strong and free. They
do not want Mr.. Bryanss pity. They
are not looking for a good Samaritan

THE NEW YORK ELECTION.


The estimates OF 100000 plurality
against Bryan in New York are no. I'M
reasonable. He will certainly be left far
behind in that state. but II is not safe
for the republicans to infer that he will
be beaten there by anything like the
majority which was cast against him in
1886. The reason Why New York cart a
plurality Of 26s,o00 against him four.
Years ago was hat his chances Of cleo
ton seemed to be stronger then than
anybody believes they are today, and
consequently every honest money man
Went to the polls. This time he is not so
strong in the country at large az he was
in 1895, but the republicans and their
honest money allies must act on the az
sumption that there In still a serious
danger that he will win. and thug cast
enough ballots against him to insure his
crushing $dsfeat. ~
