AN. ILLINOIS BANKER
Deserts the Republican Party for Bryan
and Gives His Reasons.

Joliet, Ills, July 23.-Micha ell
Collins, owner of the Citizens
bank in Peotone and for many
years the most ardent Republi-
can in Will county, a delegate to
the late Republican state conven-
tion, has declared for Bryan.
Mr.. Collins, who formerly repre-
sented this district in the legisla-
ture, said today:
"I shall vote for Bryan. 1 am
an anti-imperialist. lam strong
lyopposed to the manner in which
the Mckinley administration has
deserted the principles on which
the governments is founded. The
Declaration of independence and
the constitution have been prac-
tically set aside to. allow of the
establishment of a acolonial sys-
tenn.
"We went into. the war with
Spain to free Cuba. We declared
we were fighting for humanity,
not conquest. We pledged that
we would not annex Cuba as an
evidence that we were influenced
only in humanitarian principles.
'"The Filipinos were also fight
ing Spanish rule and had been
struggling as were the Cubans to
throw off the Spanish yoke. The
administration, l believe, made a
fatal mistake when it assumed a
different attitude toward the
PHILIPPINES than it did toward
Cuba.
''Mr. Bryan is an honest man
and has clear decided views as tc
what should be done with the
PHILIPPINES. He favors our gaur-
anteeing to the Filipinos an in
dependent republic, free from in.
tervention Of foreign powers
such as we have secured for the
South American republics.
''There is big difference be
tween expansion of territory by
taking in land that can be made
into states and the adoption o
a colonial policy such as is being
done with the Philippines, Thi
question I believe to be the mos
important one we have to dea
with. and have decided to vot.
for Bryan accordingly

The latest reports from China
state the situation of affairs
there not near so bad as at first
reported. 1t looks now a little
like Russia and Japan were fore
ing on trouble with an ulteriOr
purpose, that of gobbling up the
Chinese territory. Forcing
matters now, when England has
her hands full in South Africa,
gives the other powers an ad-
vantage they have been looking
for. If the United States keeps
her skirts clear of the muddle we
shall all rejoice.

ers are charged with thinking
more of the republican party
than they GO of the bible. But
if the Hanna regime could
bring rain to make the wheat,
why did they stop at wheat
why not give us a good corn
crop too? o, you inconsistent
rain-makers!

Lincoln on McKinley's Policy.

The Republican national plat
form promises to the people Of
the Philippines s'the largest
measure of self-government,c con-
sistent with their welfare and
our duties.
Abraham Lincoln disposed of
this specious plea, used in his
time, by the apologists of gov
ernment without the consent of
of the governed. In the course
of one of his famous series OF
speeches, replying to Douglas,
the first Republican president
said:
"These arguments that are
made, that the inferior race are
to be treated with as much al
lowance as they are capable OF
enjoying; that as much is to be
done for them as their condition
will allow-what are these argu-
ments? They are the arguments
that kings have made for enslav-
ing the people in all ages of the
world. You will find that all
arguments in favor of kingcraft
were of this class; that they al
wa,vs hestrOde the neckS of the
people, not that they wanted to
do it, but because the people
were better off for being ridden.
Turn it whatever way you will,
whether it come from the mouth
of the king, an excuse for enslav-
ing the men OF another race, it is
allthe same old serpent. .

Are You Ready for This2


Our republican friends are Just as
busily engaged in denying that that
party is for Capitalization of power,
FOR imperialism, as in 1896 they de-
MED that the party favored the single
gold standard. You know what their
denials in 1896 amounted to, and they
are just as insincere today on the
question of imperi alism.
Under the suggestive head, Ready
for Change" the Weekly Globe of
Des Moines. publishes on its editorial
page the following article. which we
take to be one of the ..''ready made
editorials, which are being sent out
by political press bureau. We quote
in full for the benefit of our readers:
''If anything was needed to demon
strate the inability of our present form
of government, to cope with the new
conditions we have entered into, it is
the disgraceful frauds of the Cuban
postal department. For long time
thinking people. who have large com.
mercial interests. have felt unsafe with
our present form of government, from
the fact that we are controlled by the
little cheap John politicians and ward
heelers. Now is good time to do
away with our old obsolete constitu.
ton and adopt form of government
that will be logical with our new ex-
pansion ideas and will give ample pro-
lection to capital We should not be
disgraced in the sight of civilized ma,
tions by such sight as the violence
and killing that accompany the oper.
alton of street cars in St. Louis now
A constitutional monarchy is probably
the most desirable plan we could now
adopt. Everything IS ripe for the
change. We have large army and il
can be increased under almost any pre-
text without causing alarm to the mas
ses. This country has been so pros
porous that the voters have lost tha
spirit of patriotism and honesty thai
are necessary to the successful opera
tions of republics. The strong iroI
hand of discipline will have to be luset
to bring the masses to a sense of prop
er behavior. We take it that the grea
farming interests of our land will read
lily adopt themselves to the change
The farmer is great lover of law ant
liberty and under a monarchy thes
results will follow. Our constitution
is largely the expression of Frencl
Revolutionary ideas; ideas sugseste'
by hot headed theorists. Jefferson
and Paine found American soil suitable
for the promulgation of Voltaireis1
and Rousseauism. Now the church
strong enough to go back to biblics
teaching of kingship. 1t need not tax
but few years to convince our polIti
cal rulers to make the change. Cer
tainly it must have years ago suggest

PEOPLE who read both the

or O'Blenniss? To settle the
puzzling question let us state
that neither one writes 'em; they
are the "boiler plate" variety,
prepared by the bosses and
furnished free of cost to the
little fellows of the republican
county press who are too tired
to eNpend any brain power on
political editorials.
The Nortonville News says eff
your neighbor is prosperous, let
him prosper. Don'tgrunt, growl
or grumble. Say a good word
for him and let it go at that.
Don't be a knocker. Your turn
will come; no one man is the
whole show. Ifyou see the town
is moving along nicely, feel good
about it. Help things along,
shove a little; push. Try to get
some of the benefit yourself.
Don't you stand around like a
chilly old cadaver. Don't waste
your time feeling sore because
some fellow has a little more
sense than you have. Do a lit.
tie more rustling yourself. Don't
be a knOcker.
The democratic party cannot
draw upon the trusts and
monied syndicates for funds
with which to conduct the cam
paign. But it can do better
than that-it can depend upon
the votes of the common people
to elect the ticket headed by
Bryan and Stevenson.

THE WAR GOD.


good will toward men" are de-
claring from pulpit and rostrum
that "God has led America into
the Orient for some divine put
pose.''
What God and what divine
purpose?
In order that the American
flag may wave triumphant ovqf
an English brewery in the city 81
Manila and that the civilizing
influence of the American dram
shop may make itself felt in the
cities of Luzon?
In order that the American
flag may blush it's reddest over
legalized polygamy and slavery
Are these parts of this divine
purpose?
Are the trenches filed. with
dead Filippinos a part of this df
vine purpose?
Are the widows and orphans
and desolate homes in Luzon and
America evidences of this divine
purpose?
Are the hundreds Of Uncle.
Sans brave boys who are
shipped home in boxes or come
home crazed by hardships of a
foreign clamate witnesses to the
divine purpose of which the
preachers tell us?
Are the vultures of commer-
cialism and corporate greed the
prophets of this God and the
manifestations of His divine pur-
pose?
Surely this is not God, the
Father of Him who drove the
money changers from the temple
and who preached unto the
world the new gospel of peace,
love and mercy.
No! This is the God of war,
the cruel and bloody God Of the
Jehovistic scriptures, the semi
barbarious God of the early
Jews. His delight is the blood
of men and wOmen's tears. The
gates of the temple OF Janus are
open. The God of war is gone
forth. Christian ministers have
deserted their master and gone
after him. Bishop, preacher and
missionary are crying out fol
blood and vengence like a lot o.
blood-thirsty hounds on the
track of a painting deer. Dead
American boys, dead Filippinos
and dead Cinnamon! Pile them
up! They make a hideous mon
ument to the God who leads
America. But in the sight ol
God, the Father, and the sigh1
of Jesus, the Christ, this war
this shedding of blood, and th'
avarice and greed which is be
hind it all is an abomination.
! No wonder that minister
