defeat an administration which was
carrying on n foreign war.
Thousands of patriotic citizens,
who were really opposed to the for

Tor him at the last election because
they thought that we should first end
the wnr ia the Philippines and then
settle other questions connected with
the archipelago. Aud nothing was
more freely heard In the campaign
from conservative men than the argu-
ment that II would not do 10 discredit
our government by withdrawing the
troops from the Philippines while
there was armed opposition there to

populism and COO much cropping

The senator recurred to the asaer'
tion made twenty-six years ago, that
the democracy was dead beyond
resurrection.
"In 1873" said he, after its defeat
by n crushing majority, u was the
general assertion that the democracy
was past hope. The republican paper
in st. Louis remarked that the demo
cratic party was dead, and It's putrid

legislation Of congress this winter
Senator Vest said;

"The ship subsidy bill win be passes
by the republicans. This measur
