BRYAN'S ACCEPTANCE.

WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN has
given out his letter Of acceptance of
the nomination for presidency by the
Democratic party. If there is one
thing in particular in which Bryan
seems to be proving himself an
adept, it is in accepting nominations,
He must be by this time somewhat
of a specialist in this line. Mr..
Bryan still hangs to the fallacy of
free silver and declares the demo
cratic partyshas not changed on this
issuesince 1896 He rants about
imperialism" and describes it as
the paramount issue. The trusts.
labor questions, government by
injunction, black listing, and the
government of Alaska and Porto
Rico through home rule and repre-
sentation in Congress is discussed
We find in this campaign that the
democratic party and its candidates
are in the same position this year
they always are simply anti-re-
publican. The instances when the
democratic party holds it convention
before the republicans, and outlines
an issue, or issues. is as rare as a
Texas cyclone. The trouble with
Mr. Bryan and his party is that they
are never for anything, but always
simply against, and it seems to us,
in looking over Mr.. Bryans letters Of
acceptance, that it is almost in
creditable that a man could posses
the qualities Of honesty and intelli-
gence, and advocate such ruinous
doctrine as he sets forth. All this
cry Of imperialism is not only riot,
but worse than that, it is hypocricy.
The idea of withdrawing our
troops from the PHILIPPINES, while
bands Of warriors infest the island,
would be simply TO encourage
and promote rebellion and anarchy,
and no one knows this better than
Mr.. Bryan. When the Filipinos,
have proven themselves worthy and
qualified for self-government, it will
be time enough then, reconsider Civ
ing it to them, but that is not yet,
II the democratic party stands as
it did in 1896, as asserted by Mr..
Bryan, in relation to the silver
question, it is a patent fact that
their claims for votes on that issue
are unworthy of consideration, and
to prove this, we will quote Mr..
Bryan's own words.
He said: If we have the gold stan
dard, prices are as certain to fall as
the stone that is thrown into the
air."
When Mr.. Bryan made this as
sertion, on August s, 1896, the
highest price OF wheat in New York
was, as shown by the official reports
of the Bureau of Statistics, IS cents
per bushel. On June 21st, 1900, the
highest price of the same grade in
the same market was 92B cents per
bushel The highest price of corn
on August 9Th, 1896, was 30S cents
per bushel, and on June p, 1900,
475 cents; oats at the date of the
above statement were in the same
market 234 cents per bushel, and
June 81, 1900, 283 cents; lard at the
date mentioned was in New York
market - cents per pound, and on
June q, 1900, 60 cents per pound,
or practically double. Mess pork on
August s. 1896, was 1919 per bar
