CROCODILE TEARS.

Mr.. Bryan has accepted one OF
his nominations. In long speech
at indianapolis he devotes almost
his entire time to the question of
expansion. He quotes literally
from Abraham Lincoln and other
Republican leaders and has very
much to say about the liberties of
the people, aud against govern
ment without the consent of the
governed. Yet in all Of his speech
in which he tells of our duty to the
Malays of the Philippine Islands,
and the people of Porto RIGA, he
has not one word to say about the
existence of liberty in the United
States proper. He finds very much
to condemn in the policy of our gov
eminent toward the Philippines,
and not one word of condemnation
for the shot gun campaign in North
Carolina, nor the disenfranchise-
ment OF the laborlng people of the
South. Mr.. Bryan knows all
about these outrages to the Amer
lean constitution, he is in touch
with the leaders of democracy,Eand
he we'll knows that the chief pur-
pose they have in politics at pres
ent is to dis enfranchise, and prac-
tically to enslave large number
of the citizens OF the United States.
If Mr.. Bryan were sincere as he
would have people believe, moth
ing on earth could prevent him
from giving expression to his con-
demnation of these outrages. He
sheds copious tears for those who
need no sympathy, for those whose
condition is daily being made bet
ter; for those people for whom
American control means the open
ing of schools, the widening of
their personal liberty, the opening
of the doors to civilization and ad-
vancement and opportunity, but
| he has not tear to shed for those
people who, brought up within the

q rehearing in the case where the su

the lower court that cattle in an unor-
ganized county can be taxed to their
owner in an organized county, so that
this form OF taxation will stand. A re-
hearing was also denied in a case where
the court had denied tie power Of coun-

are all important cases that have thus
reached their last stage. In bond cases
