No ScuttIe Policy.

There must be no Scuttle policy,
declared President Mckinley in his
speech of acceptance at Canton, Ohio,
last week, and in this single sentence
of six words was packed the essence of
Republican doctrine in this campaign.
Neither at home nor abroad must there
be an American scuttle policy; no
scuttling from the advance line of ex-
pansion. no scuttling of the splendid
prosperity achieved at home under the
present administration. The anti at
titude on most matters is left to the
Democracy, but on the scuttle issue
the Republican party is unreservedly
anti"
When President Mckinley declared
against the scuttIing proposition of the
Bryanites he was speaking of the Phil
ippines. Those islands are ours, and
there our flag will remain. with no
abatement of our rights or abandon
ment of our duty. There is our re-
sponsibility and the power of the gov
eminent must be equal to it, The ex-
panding has been accomplished, it was
accomplished when Dewey shattered
the Spanish fleet and it has since been
a question of contraction or of remain
ing where duty placed us. The Kansas
City contractionists say: pull down
the flag, scuttle and run" At Sumpter
and in Hawaii the Democracy hauled
down the flag. In both places it now
flies, however. and neither there nor
elsewhere will that party be given
authority to haul it. down again.
There must be no scuttle policy" de-
clares our President, and. the voice of
the American people will thunder APP

ernor Roosevelt was notified of his
nomination as Vice President, and in
his speech of acceptance the same
voice of robust Americanism was heard
THE people," said the candidate for
Vice President. must now decide
whether they will go on the road to
prosperity at home and honor abroad
or turn their backs on what has been
done in the past three and one-quarter
years. thereby plunging the country
into an abyss of misery and distress
and, what is worse, shame" And in
those few words are crowded the great
issues of the coming campaign.

In all sections. the. New York Mail and
Express finds that the rush of Dem
ocrats from Organism is quite as heavy
as it was at the beginning of the cam
paign four years ago. and it includes
some who at that time chung to the
Democratic party believing that it
would eventually right itself. They
have now abandoned that hope, and
are announcing themselves as Repub-
licans. SO many Democrats in Mary
land, for instance, under the lead of
the Baltimore Sun, have declared
against Organism that the state is no
longer to be classed as doubtful. The
Republican managers have not been
overconfident regarding Maryland. and
they have anticipated desperate fight,
with not quite.ansaven, chance of suc-

as heavy an anti-Bryan vote as it did

speeches that were partly quoted in some OF

"The king of France, with 10000 men,
Marched up the hill. and then marched
down again.
