A Democrats Reasons.

Shortly after the closing acts of the
Kansas City Convention. In July, the
Hon. Frank Jones, prominent Demo-
crat Of New Hampshire, publicly stated
his reasons for Withholding his support
to the peculiarly obnoxious. principles
enuncinted in the platform adopted.
Mr.. Jones Is now advocating the election
of Mckinley as the only salvation OF
the business and Industrial interests
Of the land. In his public statement
last July he said:
1.-THE fight that was made In the Kan
sas City Convention against Is to l was
only n pretence. This Is shown by the
fact that although the decision not to
make change was made by only ona
majority in the Committee on Resolu-
tons. there was no minority report and
no opposition made to the bad plank
in the convention itself. This proves
that the convention was overwhelming
~ against any change.
Does any one suppose that IL a ma
jority of the convention. had really
meant to change the money deelara-
ton they would have stopped simply
because OF one majority in the COM
mittee on resolutions: with that ma
Jority given by New Hampshire or Ha.
wall? No. 1t was settled thing from
the beginning that Mr.. Bryan would be
nominated and that the platform would
demand the immediate opening of the
minis OF the United States to silver
without limls at the old ratio. ~
II did not vote for Mr.. Bryan four
years ago on that proposltion-how
could any one think l would vote for
him this year on the same proposi.ion-
and how could anybody have the slight
est doubt that this would continue 10
be the issue?" -. d

States. From their point OF view they
can see 1t In no other light. You see,
these people have always been accus-
toned to living under the most .despot-
&c form OF government, and for any one
to criticise or disagree with the meth
DDS tof the reigning powers meant no
less than instant death and yconfiscation
of allsproperty, and SO they reason nc.
cordingly that II Mr.. Btyan's partyjwas
not stronger than the reigfiIng power
In the United Statesit would be impos-
slble for the party to exist. No. argu-
ment can convince them or make them
understand the freedom Of speech and
action under which people at home
live"
In respect to the charges OF the
.'aunties" that this government is pur-
suing a policy OF Criminal aggression"
towards the Ftlipinos, Private Peace
says that 1t makes him weary every
time he sees these views exploited in
the papers that reach the. Philippines;
how %the poor down-trodden people
over here. and how they are being i'm
posed upon by the Americans; and yet
these people who are doing all the talk
Ing don't know any more about the true
condition OF affairs on these Islands
than do about preaching sermon.
In the first place, they are better OF
now than they ever were in their, lives
before, have more liberty and more to
eat and are making more money. We
pay 20 cents q dozen for eggs and buy
every one they can produce, and they
never were sold for more than three
cents Per dozen previous to our coming
here. We pay more for our laundry
work to these natives than We would
ever think OF doing In the States, anu
q soldier is compelled to have clean
clothes all the time. We pay the men
% cents a day for work, which Is more
that they made In week before"
1t is the conclusion OF Mr.. Peace's let
ter that strikes at the root of all the
harm Bryan Is doing. and where he
voices the true feeling OF the soldiers
who are unfolding the honor Of the flag
In a far-oft country while 1t Is being as
sailed at home. He concludes with these
emphatic assertions:
What hurts US the most Is what the
papers ut home say about US. What
can we do? No soldier can say for him
self This war is not right, and I'll not
fight The majority Of us will be glad
when we can return to civil life. We
are all tired of it. but we cannot leave
until there Is big change In the situn-
ton. In the meantime we need encour-
agement. instead Of being branded as
murderers, robbers and desperadoes.
II don't believe you will find u man
in service here who would be willing to
give up these islands. 1t keeps fell
low guessing. don't know what to
make Of It. have been Democrat all
my life and was always a great ad-
mirer of Mr.. Bryan. but l cannot for
the life OF me see how n man can con-
scientiously be o follower of Bryan
and fight under the Stars and Stripes
at the same time"

The Failure Record,

William Jennings Bryan In his deter
mined assault on u self-evident prosper
ity that is standing between him and
his Presidential ambitions, makes some
very sophstical arguments to sustain
his contention. One OF his racen, pleas
that business failures are increasing
bears the stamp Of the demagogur. The
proper comparison OF business condl-
lions should made on the record OF 1896,
and the statement OF r. G. Dun's COM
mercial agency Just issued is 4 very
good document for Mr.. Bryan to study.
The report is for the quarter Just ended
and Is compared in detail with the cor
responding three months OF 1896, when
business was similarly disturbed, by d
political campaign. and conditions were
not unlike those at present existing.
The number and liabilities are given
herewith. separated into seven sections

Senatorial Chances.

The senator would not discuss his own
chances Of being returned to the senate,
although the satisfied manner in which
he listened to suggestions regarding the
senatorial election In Wyoming indicat-
ed that he had no doubt MS to the result.
He has recently seen both Senator's
Shoup of Idaho. and Carter OF Montana.
Both OF these Republican senators have
hopes OF being reelected, although they
know that It has been and will be an
uphill fight. The conditions are not MS
favorable for Republican success In
either OF these states rs In Wyoming.
because OF the silver sentiment has nj
ways been stronger In the sllver-pro-
ducing states. Senator Shoup told him
that there was possibility OF carrying
Idaho for Mckinley and yet losing the
legislature. He had hopes Of carrying
both. Senator Warren thinks the
Clark DAILY fight Will have the effect OF
giving Montana to the Republicans. ut
least so far MS the Legislature is con-
cerncd. which means the return of Sem
ntor Carter.
Utah Is niso being made the center
of hard fight, and every possible
thing that can win votes Is being done
in this baby state of the Union to
swing It into thu Republican column.

the money used by Maryland Demo-
Gratis to aid in his election. I organ
lied Bryan meetings in Baltimore on

men are holding daily meetings for
Mckinley. I merely mention this to
indicate that I was the staunchest Of

Another Group Of States.

There Is another group OF six states
which may vote for Mckinley. and
then again Bryan my carry every one
Of them. They are Nebraska, Nevada,
Montana, Idaho and Utah. Some OF
them the Republicans feel sure OF car
rying. while others are regarded as
likely to vote for Bryan. There is q,
great deal of uncertainty among poll
tic!ans, even among those who are
living In the states, us to the actual
outcome. In nearly all Of the states It.
would take groundswell to reverse
the vote Of four years ago, but there
are evidences Of such n drift toward
the Republicans that this groundswell
Is thought possible by many.
Speaking OF his own state, Senator
Warren says that he cannot see any
possibility of the Democrats carrying 1t.
In the hotly contested campaign OF
1896. the Democrats had but 5S3 major
ty. while in 1898 the Republicans car
ried the state by 1884. Senator War
rem does not think there has been any
falling off In the Republican strength.
He thinks Mckinley Is much stronger
now that he was four years ago; beside
general feeling that the continuation OF
the good times that have been enjoyed
during the past four years has not re-
suited In getting up any desire FOR Il
change. He thinks there cannot be
any question as to Wyoming casting
her vote for Mckinley and Roosevelt
