using butter four years ago. Meat Is
considerably higher now. but II Is seen
on the workingman's table in consid-
erably larger quantities. and the price
is not a matter Of such vital moment
as II was when he was out of employ
ment and was scratching for nickels to
enable him TO buy a soup bone. II was
some compensation. during the hard
times. that flour was cheaper than II
is today, but the workingman OF today
Is not troubled with sinking OF the
heart when he sees the bottom OF the
sack coming in sight, as he was during
the closing days of the last Democratic
administration, when the revenue the
cries of which Mr. Bryan is an ardent
advocate were in legislative effect. and
when the Wilson law. which he helped
TO draft. had closed the doors OF the
factories OF the country.
The full dinner pail is an argument
the effect OF which will not be lost so
long as the workingmen of this coun-
try recall the hardships which they suf-
fered four years ago, and for which Mr.
Bryan had then to offer no remedy ex-
cept 5o-cent dollars.

their labor. I am obliged TO come to
their terms. which are at least one
third higher than they were four years
ago. Therefore. am going to vote for
Bryan"
AS far as this mans limited vision ex-
tends, he is strictly logical The condi-
tlons that he states are facts. He errs
in not looking farther ahead. as most
employers and business men generally
do. For, although the election OF Bryan
would undoubtedly crowd the market
press the wage standard to what 1t was
four years ago. still II would also cut
off the employers market. II would
profit him little TO get his lumber cut
cheaply II there were no buyers. And he
may feel very certain that the lumber
trade will fall fiat IL ever the Demo-
cratic party gets into power. So that
this Individual sees no farther than the
end of his nose.
Down to the tip of that feature, how
ever. his vision is accurate and his con-
illusions from what ne sees are inevi-
table. They are the conditions that
should appeal ten thousand times more
strongly TO the laboring man than to
his employer. For, II Bryan should sue
coed. the dreary march for employment
at reduced wages will begin again. once
more the occasional employer whom the
times have not totally ruined may pick
his men from the crowding multitudes
OF the destitute unemployed. Once
more he may name his own rate OF
wages, which they can accept or go
idle and hungry. These are no phan-
toms, no fanciful inventions of the po-
litical managers. The country has tried
the experiment. 1t put the Democrats
in power in 1892 Labor saw what fol-
lowed 1t put the Republicans In power
In 1896 Labor saw what followed.
Which win you have7 II is simple

The Times cannot break the irresist-
ible force OF Senator Frink's splendid
legislative record. as published in the
Post-rntellisencer. by foolish remarks
about what was said at the time in the
columns OF this paper concerning one
Of the railroad bills In question. That
bin. II Is well known, was drawn in the
ONCE of George Turner. OF Spokane. for
purposes which we need not now stop
to explain. As the same gentleman and
his associates in Spokane were then
the owners of the Post-Intelligencer.
and as their conception OF a newspaper
Is that 1t must be a personal organ. the
coincidence that IL approved the bill is
scarcely surprising The facts are so
recent and so well known that II is not
worth our contemporary while to try
to fool anybody by pretending that they
were other than they were.
