To the Editor:
Paris, April 6, 1907 send you a
little translation l have made from an
article which has appeared in not less
than twenty French newspapers. I send
you also the original in French. I think
the two ought to be published together.
The French writer says that the Filipi-
nos are making a cemetery of the mag
Nificent archipelago. He tells how they
killed Lawton and other Americans. He
| says the war is not yet over, and then
| adds that the only hope the Filipinos
have is in the election of Bryan. That
is all they are holding out for,
IF they did not expect help from
| Bryan and his Democrats the killing of
American citizens and the expense of
the war would end at once.
THE clipping I send you was written
for the principal newspaper of Paris, lie
Temps. evidently written by a French
man who s~ympathizes with the men
| who are killing our soldiers. 1t is in the
| same tone as the articles that slandered
our soldiers during the war in Cuba.
| The United States has not an enemy
anywhere in the wide world who does
not look for help and encouragement to
the Democratic party. The United
States has not a commercial rival that
does not sympathize with the Democra-
cy.
EVERY human being who wishes to
see our soldiers defeated is opposed to
i nTaJysoJnr owl 10, ,,r~- II -
and Bryan. 1t is singular indeed what
sympathy the Democratic party inspires
among the enemies of our country. No
such sentiment exists in regard to other
countries. The enemies of France, Ger
many, England, Russia or Italy are
hostile to the entire people of those
countries. But the enemies of the Unit
ed States, of our brave soldiers and
generals, who offer their lives for their
country, look upon Democratic leaders
as their allies.
"The only hope the Filipino insurgents
have is Bryan. The only hope the
American soldiers have is Mckinley. It
is the rebel flag, Aguinaldo and Bryan
on n side; and the brave United
States soldiers and Mckinley, the stars
and stripes on the other. The line is
very distinctly drawn. American voters
will choose between these two. This is
only a sample of what appears fire.
quently in the European press.
"a tree is known by it's fruits. The
fruits of the Democratic party are most
pleasing to the tastes of our enemies.
"Why should loyal Americans encour-
age their growth? Why should true
Americans vote in harmony with the
sentiments and wishes of u enemies?
The boys in blue used to say, we vote
as we shot True Americans should
say: I vote with the defenders of our
flag, wherever it floats, and not with
it's enemies. Such men will vote for
Mckinley"
