coNTEMPTIHLE JOURNALISTS.

Yellow Journalism, as exempli.
fled by such newspapers as Hearst's
American of Chicago, is thoroughly
bad, but it makes no claims to re-
liability. 1t prints anything calcu-
lated to sell the paper. In thai
sense it is excusable. But this
justification cannot be urged by a
paper laying any claim to respecta,
bility which will deliberately copy
from the American, and thus give
currency to the saffron-hued men.
dacity. The Avalanche, in a re-
cent issue was guilty of just such
an offence. IL copied a senseless
and malicious attack upon Teddy
Roosevelt, charging him with mur.
der and cowardice.
The gist of the charge was that
he refused to pardon ferale muir
derer of the worst type, who had
been convicted of fiendish brutal
ity in killing her step. daughter and
mutilating the body beyond recog-
milton. The judge and jury
thought she ought to suffer the ex-
IRENE penalty. The governor per-
haps thought SO too; but whether
he did or not, he was poWerless-
as much so as would be the COVER
nor of Minnesota in a like case in
this state. New York has board
of pardons, as has Minnesota, which
alone is competent to pass upon an
application for pardon.
Again, he is charged by his own
admission with shooting Spaniard
in the back on the battle field of
San Juan. after the battle was over
and killing him. The American
maliciously, and the Avalanche pre-
sumabIy ignorantly, failed to state
that the Spaniard at the time was
indulging in the little pleasantly of
bayoneting wounded United States
Teddy" didn't believe
that atrocity excusable even in
Spaniard, as the American and
Avalanche evidently do.
And then there is an implied
charge of coWardice. That's good.
whoever has known anything of
Roosevelt would as soon charge
Bryan with beng dumb, the Amer
ican with being reliable or the Ava
lanche with being Intelligent.
Either proposition is amply absurd.

ceptance OF the Republican nomination
for president is mastery statement
of what has been accomplished by the
Republican party under his admins
tration. There is not weak or halt
ing sentence in the letter. 1t meets
every issue of the campaign and de-
molishes every argument that has been
put forward by the Bryanites in oppo-
sition to any policy of the admins
pration, including that of expansion,
which the Bryanites are trying so
hard to persuade the country in the
face of absolute knowledge to the con-
trary, to accept as Imperialism If
that letter were the only state paper
ever written by President Mckinley,
it would alone give him the right to a
place in the front rank of Americas
greatest statesmen. II any intelligent
American has any doubt OF how he
should vote, careful persual of that
letter will convince him that there is
only one way to vote to insure a con-
tinuance OF our prosperity, and that is
for Mckinley and Rooseyelt.
The president and Mrs. Mckinley
have gone to Somerset, Pa, to attend
the marriage OF their neioe, Miss Ma

Carl Schurz dealt Secretary Gage a
body blow when he pointed out that
there is nothing in the world to pre-
vent the Republicans from passing a
law this fall which until it has been
repealed, will prevent Bryan from pay
ing out silver bonds. Mr.. Schurz
also hints that the law was left open
for the purpose of being used in the
campaign as it now is--St. Cloud
Times.
The Times admits, as did Carl
Schurz, that the only safety to our
monetary system, in the remote
possibility of Bryan's. election,
hangs upon a Republican Con-
gress so tying him down by legis-
lacton that it will be impossible for
him to carry out his avoWed pur-
pose of placing this nation on sill
yer basis. Mr.. Bryan is the en-
bodiment of the free silver idea.
He has not only not seeded one
particle, but he demanded its res
toration in his platform as candi-
date precedent to his accepting the
nomination. However much a Re-
publican majority in Congress
might attempt to legisIate against
the Organic policy til possible for
the minority, by dllatory tactics, to
prevent the passage of any law on
the subject. 1t has been repeated
ly done, and Mr.. Bryan would Ger.
tainly urge upon his party friends
in Congress to defeat, by means
fair or foul any disposition to tie
his hands. A vote for Bryan is a
vote for the silver standard vote
