The inauguration Of President McKin.

display and ceremony on similar occa

display is to be the main feature and will
be made very prominent. Nothing like
having the people become familiar with
the new order Of things in republican
government, as familiarity lulls the fears
to sleep and makes it easier for unseru-
pulous designers TO fasteu their schemes
on the people. Militarism is one Of the

Ellsworth American. [volume] (Ellsworth, Me.) 1855-current, 1900-10-31
Hot shot from Senator Frye.

Senator Frye has done one of the
best bits oi work of the campaign,
albeit somewhat late. 1t is in the
form of an open letter to Mr.. Bryan,
whose skulk policy has brought down
upon his head a shower of embarras-
sing questions.
With fairness and clearness the sem
ator states Mr.. Bryan's record with
regard to the Philippines, the army,
the Acknowledgement of the negro, the
trusts, Porto Rico and the "consent of
the governed, expansion, the Sulu
treaty, the working men, and then
points out with unerring accuracy the
inconsistencies, evasions and decep-
tive assertions on these questions.
The Senator concludes:
These are a few of the Inconsistencies, eva
sions and misleading statements which you are
every day repeating to the thousands of voters
whom you address. The conclusion is irresist-
ibie that they are deceptive in fact, whatever
may be their intent. As one who would
not see the high honor of presidential can
didacy reduc- to the level of demagogery
and deception, 1 respectfully urge that you
exchange your present methods for the consist
ent and honorable course which characterized
your discussions in Congress and in 1896, and
which gave ysl the respect of all men, no mat
ter how much hey might disagree with you in
the principles you presented.
1t is safe enough to say that Mr..
Bryan will continue his campaign of
evasion to The end, which, happily,
can last less than week longer.

the precept and example of each and
all of them, am compelled to do my
utmost to stand against the prepos-
ferrous ideas of the present democratic
candidate for President. Not only
does all of this tradition and example
as we'll as my political training, but
also my native sense, lead me to seek
the defeat of the So called democratic
party in this election"

REPUBLICAN NOMINEES
NATIONAL ELECTION NOV. s, 1900.
FOR PRESIDENT,
WILLIAM MCKINLEY,
OF OHIO.
FOR VICE PRESIDENT,
THEODORE ROOSEVELT,
OF NEW YORK.
Election.

Before the next issue of THE AMER
IcAN is printed another presidential
election will have passed, and the re-
suit, in all probability, will be known.
Both parties express confidence of
success in the election, but the great
est confidence seems to be on the part
of the republicans. Over. confidence,
it is true, has lost many an election,
but this year confidence does not
seem TO be attended by apathy, and
interest in the election is intense.
We believe William Mckinley will
be reelected by liberal plurality.
The issues in this campaign, real and
false, are pretty generally understood
by the intelligent voters. and We be-
Heve the result of the election is safe
in their hands. We appreciate the
great vctirg strength of the vast army
of malcontents to whom the Bryanites
have appealed in this campaign, and
the great number of political heelers
in New York who will do the behest
of the Tammany boss without ques-
ton: bat we believe the vast major
ity of solid men of the country-dem-
ocrats and republicans-are on the
side of the American flag, honest
money and prosperity, which means
that they will vote for William Nc
Kinley.
We do not agree with those who
argue that the prosperity of the coun-
try is too firmly established to be Sc
riously affected by a change of gov
ernmental policy. The bare posi-
bility OF Bryan's election ard of an
unsound financial policy to follow,
deters capital from investment in
operations that might be ruined by a
reversal of conditions which change
in the administration would bring
about. 1t is a striking and significant
fact that the great majority of BUSH
ness ma.4 everywhere feel certain
that continued prosperity is depend
ent upon the reelection of President
Mckinley and the maintenance of the
present financial and tariff policies.
The revolution in values which would
follow the election of Bryan would
undermine the great financial and in
dustrial structure Of this country, and
involve industrial disaster.
We would regard the election OF
Mr.. Bryan as little short of national
calamity.
