BAIT FOR NEW YORK.
Bryan Will Be Urged to Leave Silver
Out of 81 is Speechas

New York, Jan. 13.-In connection
with the approaching visit of w. J..
Bryan to New York, the Evening Post
today says:
1T was learned today that great eff
fort will be made to get Mr.. Bryan to
speak while here, on the lines indicated
in recent interviews by Mr.. Danforth,
chairman of the Democratic executive
committee, that is to treat imperialism
and trusts as the main issue of the
campaign and avoid giving undue
prominence to the 16 to 1 issue.
Mr.. Bryan has made several speeches
already on these lines, and it is be-
lieved that he can be induced to leave
free silver in the back ground while he
is in what is called the enemy's coun-
try
THE dinner to be given to Mr.. Bryan
by o. H. 2. Belmont on January %, will
be a sort of preliminary. Many of the
party leaders of the state as well as
representatives of the Chicago platform
Democrats will sit at the Belmont table
and it is said an attempt will be made
to bring both wings of the party to-
gether in order that a harmonious dele
cation can be sent to the national con-
ventiOn- Mr.. Bryan has given many
indications lately that he desires har-
mony in New York state. He has curb
ed the enthusiasm of his silver followers
here and has shown a disposition to
court the favor of Tammany. Has also
been in close communication with Mr..
DanfOrth who has taken on himself the
task of harmonizing the party so that
Bryan will get New YorkS electoral
votes"

SANTA FEIS LOSER
To the Extent of Four Fares From
Baltimore to Topeka.

Four of the witnesses who were
brought out from Baltimore to testify
in the Leach murder case are charged
with attempting to beat the Santa Fe
Railroad company out of their fare to
Topeka. The four are Charles Young,
the theatrical man; John L. F'rey,a dec
orator who was a companion of Young;
Charles Poat, a horse jockey, and S.
Houck, the hotel keeper who mixed up
his own testimony.
The Santa Fe representative at Balti-
more advanced the tickets for the wit
nesses to come to Topeka, with the
understanding that the money should
be taken out of their mileage fees here
by the United States marshal, but they
drew their mileage yesterday before the
order to hold out the money was re-
ceived by Marshal Sterne, and as the
first three said nothing about the mat
ter, Deputy Marshal Willis supposed
that they had paid their own expenses
to Topeka and paid them their mileage
and per diem in full. Houck was asked
who paid his fare and he claimed he did
himself. The fare to Topeka was $50
each.
This morning the orders came to hold
out enough of their mileage to cover the
cost of the tickets. but it was discover
ed that they had already left for the
east. A telegram received at noon,
however, announced that they had been
intercepted at Fort Madison, Iowa, but
it is not known what can be done with
them.

MAKES IT PLAIN.
Bryan Defines His Position on
Expansion Again.

Kansas City, Jan. 13.-W. J. Bryan
passed through Kansas City this morn
ing for Columbia. Mo-, where he is to
speak this afternoon. Asked about his
Minneapolis interview, in which he was
reported as expressing views favorable
to expansion, Mr.. Bryan said:
Il have not seen the interview as sent
out by the Associated Press I saw it
as it appeared in one of the Minneapolis
papers and it contains sorle things 1
did not say. I have for one year been
discussing imperialism, and have tried
to distinguish between such an exten-
sion of the nations limits as would not
change the character of the government
and an expansion which converts a
homogeneous republic into a hetero-
genouS empire.
when the annexation of any given
territory is under discussion the ques-
ton is first, whether the people want
to come in, and second, whether the
people are capable of sharing in the
government and destiny of this nation.
Il believe that all people are capable
of governing themselves and that the
E1l1p1nOS should be allowed to govern
themselves but do not think that they
are sufficiently advanced to share with
US in the government of the nation. If
the Philippine islands are annexed the
people there must either be citizens or
subjects. I am not willing to admit
them as citizens ana do not believe that
want this nation to give them inde-
pendence and then protect them from
outside interference. Each proposed an
nexation must be considered upon it's
own merits but in considering these
merits the condition of the people

vantage"

Denver Attorney Attempts to
Clean Out 0Post'' Office.

Denver, Jan. 13.-Frederick G. Bon
f1ls and H. II. Tammen, proprietors of
the Evening Post, were both shot in
their office at noon today by W. w.
Anderson, a prominent local attorney.
It is not believed that either was mort
ally injured. Both were able to walk to
carriages that carried them home.
After the shooting Anderson walked
out of the office unmolested but was
later arrested.
The exact cause of the shooting is
not known. Anderson went to the edi-
torial rooms of the Post and entered
the Office of Bonfils and Tanmen. Polly
Pry, a well known newspaper woman
was also in the room. It is understood
that Anderson objected to something
that had appeared in the Post and de-
manded retraction and that Bonfils and
Tammen both attempted to put him
out of the office. Then he commenced
to shoot.
AS he was leaving the Post office the
lawyer said that BOnfllS and Tammen
both attacked him and that he used his
revolver in self-defense.
Tammen and Bonfils say that Ander-
son walked into their office and COM
menced shooting without more ado
Anderson came in and commenced
shooting at once said Tammen. He
shot Bonfls and then came after me
He followed me up and hemmed me in
one Of the corners. Polly Pry jumped
in front of me and tried to shield me.
She saved me from being killed, al
though she could not protect me from
being shot,
Anderson fred five Shots two of them
are said to have wounded Bonfils, one in
the side and the other in the arm.
Tammen was shot in the shoulder, the
bullet going into his breast. The phys
icians, from their hasty examinations
declared the wounds were not danger
Gus although a closer examination
might show them to be otherwise.

prompted by high ideas and disinterested
patriotism to rnonopolfze party affairs
1.-THE result IS. adds our contemporary.
..tse dirty. pool ofpo11ties which we regret
to declare IS not myth but a deplorable
rcali ty.
The fault IS that many good men who
true to their obligations. generally speak
ing, do not fully recognize the duties OF
citizenship. These citizens will pay their
taxes. and il there is war they will offer:
their services to the Government and fight
with courage ana patriotism, but when
they are called upon to do jury duty or
to take an active part in politics and other
matters of public concern, they are dis
posed to shirk. But we say that it is as
much a mans duty to serve on juries, to
attend political meetings. and to vote, as
it is to pay taxes and take up arms. It is
a great privilege to be a citizen of the
United states. It is a great privilege to
live in this land of freedom and under
Government which guarantees personal
lisous freedom and the right to pursue
happiness. 1t is the duty OF a citizen to
do his full part in unfolding those great
principles of Government of which we
boast, and to that end to aid in putting
pure men into office and in preventing, as
far y,0Scif,lt, DOliticat abuses. -
The honest men of this country are
largely in the majority, and the honest
men OF this country believe that that
which is morally wrong cannot be politi-
cally right. The honest men of this
country are opposed to political trickery
and dishonesty, are opposed to corrupt
politics and to the methods of ring poll
ticians. II these men would all go to the
political meetings and take an active in
terest in them and turn out in full num-
bers on election day and vote. thespoliticai
tricksters could not carry on business, and
the dirty pool of politics would soon be
disinfected and purified If that were the
rule, then it would be an easy matter to
get good men to run for Office. II the
merit system prevailed in politics, men of
merit would become candidates for place.
The remedy, therefore, for all political
evils is for all good citizens to measure
squarely up to all the duties and response
bIlities of citizenship, for the honest men
of this country to take hola of political
affairs But if the great body of these
men refuse TO attend political meetings
and are Indifferent as to whether or not
they vote, it follows as a necessary conse-
quence that our political affairs will fail
into the hands Of those who go into poll
tics for a purpose, who make it a matter
of business rather than matter OF prin-
ciple and patriotism.
