true the gold standard has been reestab
lished ; but the work has been done, as
1 once heard one of Mr.. Mckinley
cabinet say all the best work of the
republican party had been done, under
the LASH" and with no hint of remorse
at the way President Cleveland's efforts
to the same end were thwarted five
years ago. There is nothing in the con-
duct of the president, or of the majority
which dictates to him, to make one man
who refused to vote for Bryan in 1896
think Mckinley favorable alternative
now.
Must BE Independent Action.
The men who believe in consistent
and patriotic opposition to the Republic
an party, at once conservative and pro-
gressive; the men who believe in the
Constitution as it is, and the Union as
it was before Imperialism had sought to
initiate it to dominion which cannot be
called by any known name and who
yet see in Mr.. Bryan no one indication
of leadership competent to mitigate and
correct the errors of the present admin
istration with dignity, penetration, and
good temper, must, if the choice is offer
ed between these two candidates, do as
they did in 1S96-refuse to be dragooned
or cajoled into the support of any plat
form or any candidate not entirely in
accord with their views of duty and
honor they must give way to the voice
of no military clangor, no commercial
lust, no demagogic frenzy but con-
struct platform and name candidates
of their own, which shall stand for the
traditions of the fathers, the needs of
the hour, and the claims of posterity.

y
announced from what source hobtains
authority in the islands. 1t has been the
conception of few old fogies that the
powers of congress were in some way'l
connected with the constitution and that
all powers not thereby granted are re-
served to the states and people. Every
iota of power possessed by any arm of
our government is conferred by the con-
stitution and by it alone. If there is a
foot of land or sea to which the consti-
tuition does not extend, on that foot our
government is powerless. 1t is strange
anomaly that our republic should be
the only civilized nation on the face of
the earth attempting to rule outside OF
a constitution, placing ourselves on the
level of Turkey, Russia and China in
the ruling of our people by dictator.
The last proposition being that "until
otherwise provided" the government of
the Philippines shall be under the sole
control of the president. Except in dress
what is there to distinguish between
dictator Aguinaldo and dictator McKin-
ley. The desire to fill these islands with
the party hacks in this campaign is too
strong to give the least opening for
decency or consistency of action.
In every state in the Union as in Ne
braska the very men who disgraced the
republican party and made possible the
success of the snivelling pretentions of
populism, have been rewarded by fat
jobs as carpet -baggers. Now they pre-
tend to hold up their hands in horror
of surprise. These politicians who are
responsible can all remember the dam
nable record of this same scheme in the
South. A record that so shocked the
moral sense of the nation that in spite of
the tyranny of soldiers in the South and
the power of Johnny Davenport and his
cohorts of "honest counters" in the
north, sent tidal wave over the Union
and made it democratic in 1874, posi-
tion that it has never abandoned except
under the leadership of Greeley and
Bryan, when they abandoned the demo
cratic virgin to the tender mercies of
political vagabonds and nondescripts.
The lynching of the negro at Pueblo,
who was forced into the hands Of the
mob shackled by the officers sent to pro-
tect him, establishes the fact that these
outrages are human and not sectional.
Their frequency in the South is simply
the frequency of the cause. The same
ungovernable passion that impels the
victim to commit the crime compels the
human being with any love for the inno
cency of chill ihood or womanhood to
rise and seek vengeance. That these
terrible violations of law and order are

Population.
MANY HOMES OWNERS

New Progress.

Washington, Nov. IS The do
"reaese of the Hawaiian race has been
steadily going on for the past several
decades, especially the female popula-
ton, according to the annual report Of
cN-?resident Sanford b. Dole, Governor
OF Hawaii. The Increase OF part Ha-
Nailans tends to Keep down the num-
Der of the pure Hawaiians. While the
figures show race progress, the census
reports as to surviving children are
disrcuraging. In both the census ot
1870 and 1896 the pure Hawaiian per-
centage of survivors was the lowest OF
all Eationalities represented In the 49,
lands.
An encouraging outlook for the Ha-
waiians exists In the fact that out OF
6,S21 owners OF real estate In 1876,
2,93o we're pure Hawaiians and 122 part
Hawa!ians. These facts are Significant
as showing the ownership OF homes by
80 large number Of pure Hawaiians,
and the evident tendency OF the race to
acquire homesteads. The ex-president
reports that there is reason to expect
that annexation Is going to influence
Hawaiian character very favorabiy
through the changed conditions erect
ed. Their old dependence on their
chiefs has ceased, ana they are forced
TO rely more upon themselves and their
footing with the white man In the ~
ture will be equal. The political priv
ieges they enjoy In common with other
American citizens, he says, VIII tend
to educate them In public anairs.

sonal property in Hawaii subject to al

pursued at the notification meeting in
1896. The platform of shat year." he
said, declared the money question to be
a paramount issue and in my notification
speech l devoted almost all the time to
the discussion of that question. This
year declares the question of imperialism
to be the paramount question and it will
be the only one dealt with at any length
in my notification speech. The remain
ing questions covered by the platform
will be- taken up in my letter of accept
ance and SUI sequent speeches"

ing Neither the Protestant nor the Catholic
Church has entirely succeeded IN making worthy
men out OF all those whom they have addressed as
these men must know full we'll will refer
them to the 'Statesman's Year Book OF any OF
tie last years. 1t is not becoming in US to
boast in the face of some Of the facts recorded
therein
Those OF US who have worked side by side in
charity and reform with the Catholic workers know
what good work that Church is doing. and cannot
help feeling angry at this dscourtesy and injustice
from our side. There Is sad need OF all or US
doing the best know how, whatever our re-
ligion may be. without maliciously attacking an
organization that is patiently and efficiently work
ing to make better. Vanity for our denoni-
nations is not love of Christ Bishop GoodselI and

their work If they wish to retain the respect OF
their followers. a PRO l AM.
