Bryan's Mine Owners Trust.
Indianapolis Journal, Rep.l

Indianapolis Journal, Rep.l
After all the proposed trust which over
shadows all other trusts is the conspiracy
to force the people to pay for stamping
the silver bullion of the mine owners as
money for twice its market value. 1t is
the 16 to trust, and William Jennings
Bryan is its chief promoter.

The balance of trade in favor of the
United States for the past three years has
averaged $685., 946, 1896, and our stock Of
gold has been increased annually more
than 500, 100000 during the same period.
How does this correspond with the pre-.
dictions of William Jennings Bryan in
1896? 1t will be remembered that he
declared that the triumph of the gold
standard would destroy our export trade
and drive gold out of the country.

THE Annual Report of the United
States Geological Surveys states that nat
ural gas sunk to about one.third, in its
fuel value, of what it was few years ago.
This is easily accounted for. William
Jennings Bryan has been drawing so
largely on the supply. Just think of his
making fifteen or twenty speeches a day,
and you can then estimate how much
gas he uses each day.

performance Wednesday night.
Before opening up, however, the

if they attempted indecencies
they would be at once arrested
and the performance stopped,
and that witnesses would be on
hand for that purpose. With this

Mr.. President, this question is deep.
er than any question of party politics;
deeper than any question of the iso-
lated policy OF our country even;
deeper even than any question Of con-
stitutional power. 1t is elemental.
1t is racial. God has not beea pre-
pairing the English-speaking and
Teutonic people for thousand wears
for nothing but vain and idle self
contemplation and self admiration.
No. He has made us the the master
organizer of the world to establish
system where chaos reigns. He has
given US the spirit of progress to
overwhelm the forces of reaction
Throughout the earth. He has made
us adopts in governments that we may
administer government among savage
and senile peoples. Were it not for
such force as this, the world would
relapse into barbarism and night
And of all our race, he has marked
the American people as his chosen
nation to finally lead in the regener-
alton of the world. This is the divine
mission of America, and it holds for
US all the profit, all the glory, all the
happiness possible to man. We are
trustees of the worlds progress;
guardians of its righteous peace.

US: 1e have been faithful over a few
things: will make you ruler over

Leland Stanford's Endowment Grant En-
dnngered.
Immense mass meetings were recent
ly held at the Stanford university. at
which time President David Starr Jor-
dan of the institution set ont in unvar-
nished terms the unfortunate fact that
the very existence of The college itself
is a matter of legal uncertainty. Dr.
Jordan drew it to the attention of the
friends of the university that the valid
ity of the original act of the state Leg
~islature, h act upon which the found
ing of the university falls back for its
authority, is probably questionable.
Secondly, the president emphasizes the
fact that even granting the validity
of the enabling act as it is called.
there still remains serious doubt as to
whether the grant itself was not de
fective. This results from the fact that
the grant goes beyond the powers au-
thoriZed by the enabling act, and by SO
doing invalidates itself.
