The chairman of the recent demo-
cratic state convention in the height of
his eloquence described how the dem
ocratic party goes forth this year with
the declaration of independence in one
hand and the constitution of the United
States in the other. This causes the
Nonpariel to remark that perhaps they,
not being very well acquainted with
the instrument, don't know the con-
stitution is loaded, or perhaps they
wouldn't he brandishing it around so,

publican form of government to the
people of every state, not even except

or previous conditions of servitude al

The Shelby County Republican pre-
sents thoughtful editorial against the
adoption of the biennial election
amendment that will be submitted at
the coming election, 1t argues that
the annaul campaign is worth all it
costs in educating the people on poll
tics and the frequent elections are in
the interests of the government by the
people. We are glad to note that this
is not going to be party question,
though We see some indicationIof demo
cratic leaders trying to line up their
party against the amendment. 1t is
not party question. There are ex-
tremes on the subject of frequent cleo.
tons. Can elections be too frequent
or too seldom. I'VE believe that
once in two years would be frequent
enough. Many of the best states have
long since adopted this plan.

Some Famous Resolutions.

The following resolutions were
adopted at the republican COMPRESSION
al convention at Joplin, Mo-, July 26
last. The Hon. John Fl. Flanagan
was their author, and it is said they
are characteristics of him. John II.
Mosier of this city was present when
they were read and he says they created
sensation. We believe it.
The committee on resolutions next
reported through its ch airman, Hon
J. H. Flanagan, as follows:
The Republicans of this district in
convention assembled congratulate
themselves and the people upon the
changed conditions since '96.
To day We are busy, then We We're
idle-today We are prosperous, then
we were not. Today both the mills
and the minis are engaged, then both
| were idle. Today we are under Re-
publican administration, then we were
not.
We reaf1irm our belief in the doc
trines, and our support of the policies
which since 1860 have, when inforced
spread peace and plenty over the land.
We believe in honest labor, and hon
est money with which to employ it.
We are against all trusts, particular
ly the one organized by our Democratic
legislature, and Democratic governor
in st. Louis, and we express the hope
that the charge that our Democratic
congressman from this district received
an "attorney fee" of $1,000 for his
opinion to the governor that the street
car trust law was constitutional, is not
| true.
We emphasize our opposition to the
trusts of idleness which throttled the
country during the last Democratic
| administration.
We favor the immediate construction
of the Nicaragan canal, and to that
end we pledge our congressman to
vote for it instead of against it.
We agree with the position taken by
Ex- Governor W. J. Stone in '9S that
we should expand, and We endorse
the expressive declaration of that Dem
ocratic governor in Texas: 1--WE have
done expanded"
We congratulate the people that the
Kansas City convention was held at a
date before we had learned of the out
RACES in China upon American citizens
otherwise while they were endorsing
every other enemy of our government
they might have endorsed the Box
| ers."
The democratic party, having already
discovered a modern George Washing
ton in the Philippines, We anxiously
await the discovery of one i'll China.
But we declare that so long rs a gun is
pointed at our flag or boy in blue we
are on the side of the flag and the
boy.
We note with sadness the many
Democratic graves in which are buried
its many sacred issues, among which
are states rights, Reputation, 'robber
tariff" and IL to |, and We assure them
| that after November u We will, with
them, drop tear upon the new-made
grave, at whose head stands a slab,
marked, "Imperialism, and when this
slab is erected we recommend that it
| be constructed of ice.
We endorse Mckinley and every act
of his during his term as president,
and we promise to him and the hero of
San Juan largely increased vote in
the Fifteenth district of Missouri.
We commend to the toilers and la
Dorers of this district Hon. Joseph
Flory, the next governor of Missouri.

Boyd Opposes Bryan.
Chicago Record. Aug. I.
Special to The Chicago Record.

-
Special to The Chicago Record.
Omaha, Neb., Aug. 3.-James f.
Boyd the only democratic governor
Nebraska ever had, is radically opposed
to several of the Bryanite doctrines.
Mr.. Boyd, who, it will be rememb ered,
has been a member of the democratic
national committee from Nebraska
and always stood high in the party
councils, in an interview said:
II have never said intended to vote
for Mckinley. 1 may not vote for
presidential electors at all. With
America imperialism is i'm possible. We
have been acquiring territory ever
since the government was foun 'e |, yet
this is not an empire. To say that
new territory added from time to time
will be followed by an emperor to rule
over us is absurd. Bryan may deceive
some of the people by his far-fetched
cry of Imperialism, but the scare will
not ne Ol long uurdtlon.
OPPOSES KEEPING PHILIPPINES.
II myself am opposed to the reten.
ton of the. Philippines. The nation
should never have attempted to place
the whole archipelago in subsection.
We should have defined zone around
Manila within whose confines every
foot of ground should have been pro-
claimed American territory forever.
The problem will work its own solu-
ton in time. 1t is not a subject of
political debate, and it is too soon to
make of it a party issue. When the
Filipinos attacked our flag, we had to
fight, and the army had to put down
the forces operating against us. The
uselessness of the conflict, however, is
apparent. We have cleared zone of
only about fifty miles around Manila.
Outside of that our soldiers had only
the territory they occupy, and when
they move the Filipinos get in behind
and regain possession. This process
may go on indefinitely. The American
people will not stand for it very long.
SAYS 16 TO IS A MISTAKE.
The greatest mistake Bryan ever
made was to require the Kansas
City convention to reiterate the 16 to l
silver free coinage plank. He empha-
sized it beyond all others, thus doing
what the republicans would have him
do. 1t will cause Bryan's defeat under
heavier mnjorities than were given four
years ago. 1t was sheer idiocy. Money
was never so plentiful and the interest
rate never so low. Prices of farm
products were never better and the
producers are getting gold money for
their products Property everywhere
is evidence that cannot be talked down.
1t may not be due to Mckinley, but it
is possible under the policy for which
Mckinley stands.
