ARE FOR BRYAN.

The former Gold Democrats of Nc
Lean county, Illinois, have formally
announced that they are for Bryan
and Stevenson this year, and have is
sued an address to the people in which
they state that the Republican party
threatens our basic national prin-
ciples and organic national life and
brings this concise Indictment:
/. 'Un-American colonization, disrupt
i've not only of our national integrity and
morals, but also of our national peace.

and fragrant private monopoly"
This hits the nail squarely on the
head. The uprising against Republi-
canism is spreading like wild-ire. The
only party which can hold the liberties
Of the people secure and advance the
interests of the masses is the Democ-

REPUBLICAN EVIDENCE.

Here is. what Senator Wellington,
Republican, says of William Mckinley,
Republican President of the United
States:
President Mckinley has betrayed me.
I was opposed to the Paris peace treaty
and would never have voted for it's ratifi-
cation of my own volition. | told the
President So and he induced me to vote
for it by solemnly pledging me that it
was not the intention of himself or the
government to forcibly hold or perma-
nently acquire the Philippines.
'I1e further said that his personal de-
sire was to restore law and order in the
islands and then submit the matter to
Congress- with the idea of having 1t grant
absolute freedom and self-government to
the Filipinos. With that pledge from
President William Mckinley l voted for
the treaty. Without it l never should
have done So.
This is pretty severe arraignment,
but it is justified by the facts. Presi-
dent Mckinley resorted to tricks in
the Philippine matter, just as he
changed his mind several times as re-
CARDS Porto Rico. He has lacked
straightforwardness in dealing with
the people of the United States and of
the Islands alike, while steadily drift
ing away from the Constitution and to-
wards empire. The pepole are very
weary of that sort of thing, and pro-
pose to put a stop to it in the only
effective manner-by turning out. the
administration. bag and baggage.

Several Democratic papers in West Vir-

This extract from the columns of the

sneering at Democrats, and it is known
by its vltuperation of everything Dem

ant, biased, prejudiced, unreasonable

For the Old Republic.

st. Louis Republican.
1t Is a reasonable certainty that as the
time approaches when a decisive choice
must be made between McKinleyism and
Americanism there will be a host of other
Republicans who will find themselves UNI
able to vote for empire as against the
old republic. Men whose ancestry is
traced back to revolutionary days cannot
shame their blood by betraying the free
government established by their fathers.
Men who have been taught to love the re-
public as the very figure incarnate of lib
erty and Justice will not consent to dis
honor the republic by degrading it to
policies of oppression and injustice. Men
who found under the flag Of the republic
a safe refuge from the tyranny Of mon
archial Europe will never assist to align
that glorious standard with the cruel ban
ners of the old world in wars of conquest
for the subjugation of weaker peoples.

sible information counts FOR anything.
1t is apparently useless TO hope for
anything but more trouble out of this
Chinese business, and the sooner we
settle down to that belief the better.
Things have steadily gone on from bad
tc worse for two months. 1t is no
longer to be doubted that civilization
is fighting the Chinese nation, with
the Chinese responsible officers in COM
mand and directing affairs. The con-
ditions are not to be treated lightly.
They are most serious, and in all pro-
liability will call for the energies of
America as they have not been put
forth for generation. While hoping
for the best it is the part of wisdom to
anticipate the worst. The situation is
ominous. War appears to be very
near. Let us hope it will not come
that is open and avowed war-but the
public mind should be in a receptive
mood for bad news. The storm may
break upon us any day now. If it does
not, that will be well. If it does, we'll
q, Get it as we have always met nation
al emergencies. There is no cause for
particular excitement. The thing to
DC is to be ready for whatever hap
pens, and trust that all may yet be well.

OPEN WAR APPEARS TO BE CLOSE

OPEN WAR APPEARS TO BE CLOSE.
That we have really been at war with
China for some time is a proposition no
one will deny outside of diplomatic
circles. We have Sent thousands of
men, batteries, cavalry regiments, i'm
mense supplies, warships and trans
ports to the Celestial Empire, and are
straining every nerve outside of calling
Congress and asking for volunteers to
increase our force. Our troops have
fought the Chinese, and they are in the
column which is endeavoring to force
its way to the Chinese capital.
Washington has continued to assert,
through all this, that we were not ac-
tually at war. Diplomatically We were
Only endeavoring to rescue our repre-
sontatives and our citizens. Within
forty-elght hours, however, the situa-
ton has changed, and most noticeably
within the last day. Last nights tele-
grams show that what virtually
amounts to an ultimatum has been
sent to whatever Chinese government
exists at Picking. If there is not a sat
isfactory answer within a very few
days this government will be forced to
back up its position by formal declar-
alton of war, and then we will be into
1t in earnest.
Such result would not materially
change the situation, except that it
would call for more men. For weeks
we have been approaching this stage
of the game. and the government has
been rushing munitions and supplies
to the Pacific coast with all speed. If
what amounts to an ultimatum does
not evoke prompt and satisfactory
answer Congress must be assembled
and men must be provided That is
the situation which, apparently, con-
fronts the country.
As to the safety of Minister Conger
and the Americans with him. that is
another story. The chances are that
they will never be rescued. They are
virtually prisoners in the hands of the
| Imperial government, and it will do
with them as it pleases. The relief
column cannot possibly get to Picking
for many days. and the nearer it gets
to the capital the more certain win be

A SPLENDID sELEcT1oU.

The Democracy of the Second Con-
gressional district are to be congratu-
lated in the selection of candidate
made at Martinsburg, yesterday. Mr..
Thomas B. Davis, successful business
man, deeply interested In the develop
ment and continued progress of his
for it's advancement, and who may be
depended upon to keep it in the Inc
of progress, is pre-eminently the man
for the place, and his election, insur-
ed by his nomination, gives the people
the certainty that the Second district
of West Virginia will BIZ represented
in the next Congress By a man VINO
will be much more than al ordinary
member Of that body, and one who can
DO depended upon to do what is right
at all times. Mr.. Davis is not an Or
ator He will not bewilder and dazzle
and mislead the voters with GoWerY
statements, misleading asSorI atoms, or
inconsequential harrangues. He is a
hard-headed business man, enterpris-
ing, progressive, honest and straight
forward In all his dealings. The peo-
pie know him, admire him, and have
confidence in him, and that confidence
will not be misplaced. The Second
district Democracy has done more than
we'll.
