MIR. Schurz's Speech,

New York World.
Carl SEIZURE has fully realized the I'M
easiest anticipations of the imperlalsts.
Like his great sound money speech at
Chicago In 1896, his speech at Cooper
Union last night is a splendid demonstra-
tion OF the might OF intellect when en-
lightened by Conscience and armed with
the irresistible power of the truth.
Mr.. McKiniey's letter of acceptance Is
not only the most conspicuous but also
the ablest defense of his policies. Mr.,
Schurz seized II and has now turned 1t
into a most effective weapon OF the cam
palgn for right justice. the republic and
its principles. Mr., Mckinley argued with
suhtlety; but MIR Sohurz has exposed mis-
fallacies. Mr. Mckinley garbled ques-
tons; Mr.. Schurz has supplied the omis-
sions. Mr.. Mckinley manufactured his
tory; Mr.. Schurz has placed in parallel
columns the facts Of history Itself as writ
ten by Mr. McKinley's own officers and
agents and reported directly to him, M.
Mckinley proclaimed intentions of pure
beneyolence; MIR. Schurz, with the rapier
of fact, has torn off the mask and has re-
vealed the crafty constructor OF des-
potism to be exploited by and for satraps
and syndicates maintained with the blood
and the money Of the American people.
Mr. Mckinley tried to shift and divide
the responsibility; Mr.. Schurz has fixed It
so firmly upon him that it becomes as
much his own as his skin.

Nashville has received the official figures as

her suburbs In 1890 and again two years ago

population. This is species OF candid con-
