simply chirped where he has
thundered, and never chirp has
been in opposition to his own.
And here at the end OF four
years Of activity without tagging,
and OF expression without fear,
comes this defeated candidate of
1896, girt with the prestige of
failure and handicapped by dis
aster. In all these years no pos
sible rival to his leadership has
cast even a fickering ray upon
the horizon of his party. With
all the wHalt' of ideas and of
political finesse in the councils of
Democracy, no man save this
man has ever been seriously con.
sidered for a moment. He has
kept alive the hope and the
enthusiasm of his party in the
night of defeat. He has been it's
mouIhpiece. He has risidly
preserved its standards he
has dictated it's policies; he
has made its platform; he has
selected the location of it's nation
al convention; he has named the
days of its assemblage, and today
he walks royalty, unchallenged
and upon his own terms into his
own place as the head aid the
front of Democracy in America.
And the forlorn hope that he
has led with heroic consistency
through the shadows is waving
it's banners in the sunlight of
promise and victory.
This is a record without an
equal, career without a parallel
in American history. The great
men of the past have had their
followers and achieved their tri
umphs, and some of their work
may outlast and outlive the deeds
and the words of the Nebraskan.
But l challenge the annals to
produce record of leadership so
complete, so dominant, so illus
trious and so sustained as this.
1t is in the air, in the pulse
and in the stars that the Democ
racy will win. 1t has the argu
ment, world without end. It has
the sentiment, it has the theme
for the omnipotent genius of the
cartoonist. 1t has everything ex-
cept money.
But whether the party of the
people wins or loses in this great
4 Armogeddon of popular liberty,
the fame of the man who leads it
is secure, and William j. Bryan +,
of Nebraska, will 60 serenely
down to history as the greatest
leader of the people and the re
public of America has produced.

dan Empire of Mindanao, only
the commercial ports are occu-
pied. The Moros are cloud on
the horizon.
Officers best acquainted with
the conditions in Mindanao and
the Sulu Islands, tell the Asso-
ciated Press correspondent that
they consider serious fighting
there inevitable. If it comes the
two regiments which are scat
tered in small garrisons, some Of
them hundreds of miles apart,
along the coast of Mindanao, an
island nearly as large as Luzon,
may have serious work. The
Moros are fighters by nature, do
not fear death, have many guns,
though of antiquated makes, but
do the best execution by lying in
the thick jungles and cutting
down soldiers who pass through,
with terrible knives and spears.
Gen'l. Young, who is holding
seven of the most mountainous
provinces of Luzon with four reg.
ments, expects severe work dur
ing the rainy season. Hundreds
of Filipinos have been slain but
much of the work has been like
brushing away mosquitoes, which
swarm down upon new spot.
Gen. Tinio has a nomadic com.
mand whose warriors can hide
their guns and become "amigos"
if it suits their interests. AS few
of them wear uniforms and the
people comtine to shield them
from detection, the Americans
are greatly handicapped.
Aglipay, the priest, who has
proclaimed himself as Archbishop
of the Philippines, is in the field
as general. His forces attacked
Capt. Todd, of the Sd cavalry, a
Batoc. More than 200 Filipinos
were slain. Aglipay commanded
in person and there is an un.
confirm ed report that he was
anon the killed. His followers
fought with the recklessness of
MOhammedan fanatics. They ap-
preached the Americans in three
lines with an advance guard Of
women arranged with the expec-
tation that the Americans would
not fire upon them. Behind the
women was a line of bolomen

hind the bolomen the rifemen
Happily the women threw them
selves fiat upon the ground and
sought shelter at the first fire, so
that few of them were injured.
Archbishop Cappelle has taken
no uncertain stand on the ques
ton OF the friarS which the Fill
pino people regard as the key
note of all their troubles. The
Archbishop has expressed his
opinion freely in many of the
cases to civilians with whom he
has talked, although he declines
to give any formal interviews for
publication.
His conclusions summarized
are these:
That the Filipinos owe to the
mOnastic brotherhoods all the ed
ucation and civilization they pos
sess that it would be a great in
justice to the friars to expel them
from the field W rein they have
worked for centuries or TO de-

BRYAN THE GREATEST POPULAR
LEADER.

Four years ago, after the fer
cest canvasses, and upon a dis.
tinct and clearly definite financial
issue, this man was decisively de-
feated for the presidency and the
party under his leadership utter
ly routed at the polls.
Most men of ambition, under
these circumstances, would have
sought, for a time at least, the re
cuperative influences of silence
and obscurity. By all the pre-
cedents this was the thing to do.
But not for day did Bryan.
From the hour of his disaster
until this hour of his triumphant
revival, he has been alive and
astir. Upon the hustings, on the
lecture platform and in the pub
lie and private prints he has been
increasingly active and uuhinch-
ingly aggressive. He has carried
his propaganda in his heart and
on his lips everywhere. He has
literally lived in the white light
OF publicity. He has dared the
traditional peril of print, and
fearlessly fulfilled the desire of
his enemies in writing a book
And, marvellous to relate. nei
ther in speech nor in print, in all
these four years, with his every
expression weighed and his every
action criticised, has he uttered
one word which the argus. eyed
and vindictive partizans of the
opposition could torture to his
discredit or magnify to his hurt.
1t is beyond all precedent that
he should have given no handle
to the captious criticism Of his
enemies, and there can be no real
or imagined explanation Of this
phenomenon outside of the fact
that he spoke sincerely and spoke
the truth.
And from the day of his defeat,
and in spite of his defeat, he has
been the supreme and towering
head of his party. He has never
lowered for one instant the stan
dard of the idea upon which his
first battle was fought and lost
never changed, never compro-
missed never shifted for advantage.
Men may differ from his views,
but all men must pay homage to
the superp consistency and cour-
age of the man. If he has added
new shibboleths to his camp, he
has not abated one jot or one tit
tie in his loyalty to the old creed
which he carried to defeat.
And to this old creed he has,
with masterful power, held fast
the faith of those who followed
it, coerced the loyalty Of those
who opposed it and made it high
treason in Democracy for any
man to look askance at it.
Fighting alone and almost sin
gle handed, this one man has sus
tained the devotion of the faith
full and literally compelled the
support of the doubtful to the
puissant political organization
with solid and absolutely un-
broken ranks to fight once more
under this banner at the Novem-
Der polls.
And this, mark you, he has
done almost alone. He has done
all the speaking and we'll nigh all
the writing of his party. If others
have made expression, they have

A BURLINGTON HOLD-UP.
A Train Robbed a Few Miles From
Bryan's Home.

LINCOLN, Neb., Sept. 22.-Four
masked men held up the express car
on the ST Louis Portland train of the
Burlington road early today at the val
lage of Woodlawn, a few miles north
west of Lincoln. The men commanded
the express messenger to open the local
safe for them. The through safe, which
the messenger could not OPEN, and
which contained a large sum of money,
was not molested. The robbers secured
very large sum from the local safe.
After going through the safe the men
left the express car and disappeared.
The train left Lincoln shortly after
midnight and it is supposed the rob
bers boarded it at this place.
A young man who came in today
from the scene said that the engineer
was struck over the head with a re-
volver and that the pockets of the pas
sengers were rified. The railroad au
thorities say no money was secured, ex-
cept from the local safe. They admit

this he was unable to do. The Burling-
ton Company has offered reward of
$500 each for the apprehension of the
robbers.

A BANDIT SHOT.
A Typical Border Tragedy in Lower
California.

SAN DIEGO, Sept 19.-Deputy Sher-
iff Sam Thing of Pichaco arrived in the
city today with the news of the killing
of Pedro Morales, the murderer of Dep
uty Sheriff Wilson of Los Angeles last
Sunday afternoon near Real del Cas-
tillo. After the murder of the deputy
sheriff some three years ago Morales
made good his escape into Lower Cali
fornia. He was soon located there, and
time and again plans were laid for his
capture, but he always escaped.
The Mexican officials gave the Am
erican officers full freedom to hunt the
murderer in any part of their territory,
and in the plans for his capture rurales
played prominent part. 1t was known
that Morales would not give up without
a desperate fight. and unless caught
unawares would battle to the death.
During his three years residence across
the line Morales was a constant fugi-
tive both from the Mexican and Am
erican officers
Some time ago he found his way to
Tia Juana, but left again before the
officers learned of the fact, taking with
him the wife of another Mexican. The
