Will Elect Mckinley.
Combinations are formed for
the benefit Of humanity. It
is one of the laws OF nature
that We combine our forces for the gen.
eral good. Well keep electing Mr.. Nc
kinley. and United States senator's in
sufficient numbers SO that they can
control the government and adopt an
amendment to control these trusts.
Down south, the stronghold OF Democ-
racy, you never hear OF such thing as
legislation against trusts. State rights
Is the evil that stands In the way of the
Republican desire to control trusts. Our
only chance TO control trusts is IN the
grand party that Is opposed to state
rights. The great problem OF life for
six thousand years Is government.
Our Democratic friends having fail
ed In all their Issues now speak very
much about Imperialism. They speak of
our war with Spain. How false and
hypocrltical! The Democrats started
that war. The Democrats are the tory
and copperhead party to-day. Months
before the war was started the Demo-
Gratis In Congress were clamoring for
war. They call the Republicans cow.
ards and traitors. Mckinley was the
greatest coward that sat In the presi-
dental chair. They used the same cpl
thets they had used against old father
Abraham.
Finally the Maine was blown up. Nc
kinley was preparing our army and
navy. Foreign nations were threaten

was now ready to issue his proclama-
tion declaring war. Then 1t was the
Democrats who kicked Mckinley said
II we declared war We would declare It
in the dignity of the greatest govern
ment on the face of the earth.
Always Tearing Down.
The Democrats are always tearing
down. They bay at the moon because
its brilliancy Is beyond their comrre-
henslon and out of their reach. Finally
the war came on Dewey was told to
keep watch along the China coast. He
started his ships toward Cuvite. A shot
was fired. but Dewey said sail on"
Finally n torpedo exploded and still
Dewey said "Sall on Finally Manila
was captured. Other victories soon fol-
lowed. We wanted gallant man to
capture Santiago. Teddy" Roosevelt
was selected. He led the charge and
took Santiago He will take the white
house just the same. (Cheers.) The
entire war rested on the ratification or
rejection Of the treaty OF Paris. In that
contract was solemn covenant and
agreement that the United States SOL
diers were to enter Manila and protect
that city from the murderers and ma
RAIDERS that surrounded It. Agunaldo
was mad, because he could not enter
and loot the city. 1t was n solemn con-
tract and by the help OF God Mckinley
was going to carry out the covenants
of that contract.
The Democrats have raised the bug
aboo. imperialism" Every Democrat
awoke all OF sudden to the fact that
one hundred or more years ago Thomas
Jefferson wrote the Declaration OF In
dependence. He spoke of the Demo-
cratic cry Of governing people without
their consent. How about the Carolinas
and Mississippi? Mr.. Bryan has bad

when every man In the country knows
that Mckinley said he would not toler-
ate slavery there. The Democrats dis
franchsed the voters Of the south and
that means degradation. especially II It

race. That is making barbarians OF cit
liens of the United States. They not
only dlsfrnnchlse them. but they count
them In the representation. Whoever
heard OF prosperous labor organiza-
ton down south? Children there work
sixteen hours day. Laborers are os-
TRACKED in the south. Bryan says
don't pay attention to the south. but
give us the consent of the governed
thousands Of miles away.
A Habit of the Devil.
Mr.. Bryan quotes scripture. The dew
Il is always quoting scripture. He
would advise him to read little OF the
children OF Israel They we're taken to
the promised land, not at once, but it
required forty years. God knew they
were not capable OF self-government.
They wandered In the wilderness until
they became sufficiently educated for
self government. Then they establish
ed republic that was the greatest on
earth until our forefathers established
this government. AS fnanciers the
Democrats haven't enough intelligence
to run q peanut stand.
The speaker said he never knew Of n
time when the Democratic party did
not hate the American sold!ar. The
American soldier was never conquered.
The American navy was never sunk.
The Democrats are afraid OF the Amer
lean soldier. Uncle Sans soldier was
n citizen yesterday, q soldier to-day
and no better citizens or soldiers ever
lived. That Is the American soldier.
Those are the boys that you can always
trust. We needn't be afraid Of them.
We have taught the world q lesson
We are the greatest nation on this
footstool the earth to-day. We, like
England. can say to the world that the
sun never sets on our dominlons. Our
gallant. troops carried the American
flag first into Pekin, the first time n
foreign flag has ever foated over n &C.
lcstial dome. Give us the Republican
party In power and we'll have the Nc
aragua canal and the upbuilding OF
the American navy. Mr.. Brumm closed
with an eloquent peroratlon and was
cheered loudly. @
