Abe Goldman, Israel Yosfolsky, Bonnie
Pearlman, Bonnie Yosfolsky and Louis
Pearlman are a lot of vicious youngsters
that use profane language and are up
to all kinds of mischief between school
hours. Yesterday the five were run in
by Officer McGillie for creating a dis
turbance on the corner of Main and Ga
lena streets. They We're released upon
promise of their parents that they would
show up after school closed and face
Judge Sullivan.
At 4 o'clock the lads presented them
selves in the court room.
Judge Sullivan was kind as we'll as
severe. He lectured them upon their
vicious conduct and ~admonished them
that unless they dropped their ways they
would turn out criminals, and the peni-
Tertiary would be their portion.
The boys listened in fear and trem-
bling and exhibited the contrition nat
ural to youths of tender years. The Judge
%thereupon discharged the prisoners.

If Mr.. Bryan and Bryanite majority
in Congress were elected, and thus all
the evils of is to could be brought
upon the country in 1901 as surely as
they could have been in 1897.
1t is, moreover an error to regard
the currency heresy as the only bad
feature of Bryanism. Such is by no
means the case, as every recollection
of 1896 should remind us. Organism
then meant many other Objectionable
things, and it means them now, since
every one of them has been specifical-
ly reaffirmed in this years platform.
1t means, for example, the imposi-
tion of Socialistic income tax,
which shall establish class distinc-
tions i'll legislation and shall dis
criminate against thrift and industry.
1t means the weakening of law and
order by depriving the courts of the
power to make their judgments effec-
tive. 1t means the weakening of
governmental authority and the
triumph of the mob by denying the
Federal government the power to pro-
tect its own agents in the conduct of
its own business. 1t means, worst of
all, the prostitution of justice by pack
ing the Supreme Court of the United
States for partisan political purposes.
These things are Organism. They
are what Mr.. Bryan stands for
They are what he stands pledged to
bring about if he is elected. Upon
that point let there be no mistake.
These abominable things were un-
mistakably demanded in the Chicago
platform of 1896, and they are every
one of them, again demanded in the
Kansas City platform of 1900. The
man who votes for Bryan votes for
them, as well as for the clipped
dollar.
The Republican., 1900-09-06

1t is no secret among those who
know him most intimately that Mr..
Bryan has been growing more and
more imperious in will and purpose
since that day in 1896 when accident
and oratory made him the candidate
of the Democratic party, or, more
correctly, of that part of the party
and of other organizations which
stood at that time, and now stand
for decentralization and destruction
He was not, nor can he ever be, the
candidate of a large number of Dem
ocrats-for the reason that his dicta-
torial manner and his imperiousness
of will render him unsafe for counsel,
Unamerican as citizen and unrelia-
ble-not to say positively dangerous
in any position of power to which
an unfortunate possibility might as
sign him
From the level of an assumed hu-
mility to the height of an actual hau-
teur has been the mental progress of
Mr.. Bryan. His imperious domina-
tion of the Kansas City Convention
strikingly exhibits his mental pro-
gress as well as his purpose to rule or
ruin. This, taken with the moral
condition which insists upon con
viction that he claims to be basic and
supreme, but which he afterwards
maintains to be merely an expedient
and used for double purpose, seems
to indicate that Mr. Bryan, as he had
risen in his own estimation, has in
some way lost the natural distinctions
so universally recognized not only in
politics, but in all the pursuits of life.
In other words, his is II clear case of
moral strabismus.
This is the view actually taken of
Mr.. Bryan's case by Western medi-
cal journal of some note. The re-
markable change in Mr. Bryan since
he entered public life is pointed out
with certain suggestive features
which enable the journal to make an
intelligent diagnosis, and, while ad-
hitting Mr.. Bryans ability and won
derful oratorical powers, it finds that
he is perilously near the borders of
crankism and unfit to be entrusted
with the administration of the COM
plicated affairs of the greatest gov
ernment on earth. Bryan, this jour
nal finds. is u disorSanizer and a de-
structionist, which is not character
istic of a normal and healthy condi-
ton. Such a person has never been
deliberately chosen a ruler of a great
people. To admire a mans brilliant
qualities is one thing; to entrust him
with the grayest responsibility when
he shows plainly that there is some
thing wrong in his makeup is quite
another. Every consideration of Or
der, patriotism and the preservation
of national credit and national re-
spect should impel the voters to re-
buke Mr.. Bryan and his political fan
tastes at the polls in November.

that their evidence is not for his
cause, but against it." 1t is declared
that almost without exception the
great statesmen of this country, from
Jefferson and Washington down to
Andrew Jackson and Abraham Lin
coin, have spoken and argued for ex-
pansion."
In the beginning of the document
are printed the following quotations,
which are sentences taken from ex-
tracts of letters printed within:
There is a rank due to the United
States among the nations of the
world, which will be withheld, if not
absolutely lost, by the reputation for
Washington.
Having practised the ACQUISITION of
territory for nearly sixty wears. the
question of constitutional power to
do so is no longer an open one

ton was ever before so well calculat-
ed as ours for extensive empire and
self-government.-Thomas Jefferson.

istence.-S. A. Douglas.
l now behold the great American
eagle, with her stars and stripes, how

our glorious Union.-Andrew Jack
son.
l do not share in the apprehension
held by many as to the danger of gov
ernments becoming weakened and de-
stroyed by reason of their extension
OF territory.-Grant.
Among quotations from Presidents
speeches is the following by President
Buchanan at the White House in
1861:
Expansion is, in future, the policy
OF our country, and only towards fear
and oppose it.
Stephen A. Douglass, at Freeport,
ILL.,, August 81, 1858, said:
Just as fast as our interests and our
destiny require additional territory
In the North, in the South, or in the
islands of the sea, am for it.
Albert Gallation said in letter TO
Jefferson:
TO me il would appear; That the
United States as Nation have an in
herent right to acquire territory.
That whenever the territory has been
acquired, Congress have the power
either of admitting it into the Union
as new State or of annexing it to a
State, with the consent of that State.
or OF making regulation for the gov
erhment of such territory.

Prophecies AnaIyzed.

In 1896, prognosticating the disas-
ters that would attend Republican
success, Mr. Bryan declared
II Mckinley and the Republican
party are successful and put in DOW
er Tor the next four years wages will
be decreased. Hard times will come
upon us and over the land. The
price of wheat will go down and the
price of gold will go up. Mortgages
on our homes will be foreclosed by
the money lenders. Shops and fac
tories will close We will export
no goods, and we will import from
foreign lands all the goods we use.
Thus will want and misery lie with
us.
Recalling these doleful prophecies
the Cincinnati COmmeycioI Tribune
says;
Lets see how that worked out.
Wages will be decreased, said the
prophet. To the contrary, wages
have increased and multiplied.
Hard times will come upon us
and over the land.
Times were never better. As in
dividuals and as a nation we are
prosperous.
" The price of wheat will go down.
The price of wheat has gone up.
'The price of gold will go up
Gold dollars and their equivalents
are within far easier reach of the
masses than they were in 1896.
" Mortgages on our homes will be
foreclosed by the money lenders.
The farmers of the West, who
suffered most from the burden of
mortgages, have become enabled to
cast off much of the burden.
Shops and factories will close. ;
There are more shops and factories
open and in operation than ever be-
fore.
" We will export no goods, and we
will import from foreign lands all the
goods we USE Our exports increased
until the record was broken. They
are far in excess of our imports.
Thus will want and misery be
with u.s. Thus are abundance and
happiness with us.
The Republican., 1900-09-06

Mr.. German, dispatches from Fred
| erick announce the return of his
faithful lieutenant and worthy proxy,
Col. l.. V. Baughman, who has also
announced his intention to roll up
his sleeves and jump into the work
of the campaign with his former Wig
or and enthusiasm. Colonel Baugh-
man also makes a notable sacrifice in
deciding to do this, for it will be re-
membered that he had declared his
intention to retire to the peaceful
shades and pleasant pastures of his
broad acres in Frederick county, pre-
ferring those bucolic occupations to
the active campaigning that he had
thought to resign to other hands.
The desperate desire of the party to
carry the State has been demonstrat-
ed in a number of ways, but by none
more forcibly than this cooperative
determination of Mr.. German and
his lieutenant to pitch in and lend a
hand. Chairman Vandiver's success
in inducing them to yield to the press
ing needs of the hour will crown him
with deserved laurels as a campaign
manager, and the hopes of the party
may be expected to brighten from
this time forth.
To some the motive of Mr.. German
in giving up quiet hours of ease be-
meath his prolific vine and fig trees is
thought to exist in his desire to go
back to the United States Senate and
to reap for himself some of the fruits
of the party plum crop. But such a
thought is reprehensible in the ex-
treme, and the disposition of the peo-
pie to entertain it for moment is to
be deplored. The idea of Mr.. German
being after anything for himself is. of
course, absurd.

German Enters The Campaign,

Ex-senator German has returned
to his home in Howard county. after
refreshing summer outing at Mag
nolia, Mass, and instead of deciding
to settle down to his favorite pastime
of fall ploughing, he has announced
his intention of taking an active part
in the Democratic campaign. He
was warmly greeted by his friends
and acquaintance and assured of
their deep appreciation of his devo-
tion TO the party interests by under
taking so great sacrifice as the
abandonment of his cherished plans
for supervising the farm to the more
essential call to duty from the ranks
of the campaign workers. He has
even condescended to make number
of speeches and to ladle out advice
upon the conduct of the campaign in
liberal and unstinted measure. He
will also be ''in touch by wire" with
the National Democratic headquar-
ters, a thoroughly appropriateLthing
by the way, and feature of the work
which must succeed under the man
ipulations of hand so deft and ex-
perienced in the fine art of wire pull
ing as his.

LITTLE IS NAMED.
Haserstown Man Nominated For Congress
BY Democrats,

Hagerstown Man Nominated For Congress
By Democrats.
Major Charles A. Little, of Hagers-
town, was nominated for Congress by
the Democrats Of the Sixth Congress
sional District at Rockville, yester-
day.
All the counties Of this district ex-
cept Allegany county voted for Mr..
Little, Register of Wills John B. Shan
non getting Allegany's vote. It is
alleged that Garrett county was also
to support Shannon on the first bal
lot, but failed to do so and some i'll
feeling resulted between one of the
members of the Garrett delegation
and one of the Allegany delegates.
AS soon as it vas seen that Major
nittle's nomination was a foregone
conclusion, Allegany made the nomi-
nation unanimous.
Those present from Allegany coun-
ty were Patrick Burns, DR.. George l..
Carder, Capt. John Sheridan, Lee
Lichtenstein, Edward Donahue and
John Chambers.
Major Little is an attorney at law
in Hagerstown and was states at
torney for Washington county sew
eral years ago. He is a sound money
Democrat, but it is understood he
supported Bryan four years ago not
withstanding his views on the money
question. He is major in the First
Regiment, Maryland National Guard,
and was with the regiment at the
various camps at which it was sta
toned during the recent hostilities
with Spain.
The Garrett delegation to the con-
ventlon was composed of Messrs. C.
M. Wilson, of Altamont; John Collins.
OF Bloomington, and William Miller
of..Accident.
