WHO RESPONSIBLE

There is difference of opinion among
our Democratic brethren as to what was
the prime cause of Mr.. Bryan's defeat on
the 9th inst. If the Democratic newsPa-
pers that now frankly admit what they be-
Iieve to be the cause had expressed the
same views before the election, the defeat
of their candidate for Presidency
would have been still more disastrous.
The Lynchburg News of the 10th inst,
in an editorial, "a Few Remarks" de-
clares its belief that the ruinous defeat of
the Democracy was occasioned by "per-
hitting single man to dictate its policy
and dominate its organization"
In placing the responsibility for defeat
upon the shoulders of Mr.. Bryan the
News says;
sin the first place when the Spanish
treaty was before the Senate for ratifica-
ton it was opposed by enough Democrats
and Republicans to insure its defeat, until
MIR. Bryan went to Washington and by
bis personal influence, persistently exert
ed. had the treaty ratified over the heads
and despite the wise advice of four-ffths
of the Democratic Senators. Thus Mr..
BRYAN made himself primarily responsible
for the purchase by this government, at
SOC. 900, OGO. of a lot of semi-ciyilized
Orientals, whose subsection. ifnot speedily
accomplished, will have cost this country
five OF six hundred millions of dollars.
After doing this it was impossible for Mr..
BRYAN and the Democratic party to appeal
successfully to the American people
against the fuinous policy of imperialism
and against an unjust and yasteful foreign
war. MIR. Bryan is largely responsible for
the whole business. i" ..
The above is very honest admission by
our esteemed contemporary, the Lynch
burg News, of the truth of the position
held BY us throughout the campaign, that
Mr. BRYAN was personally more respon-
mile for the condition Of affairs in the

A VICTORY FOR THE ADMlNiSTRA'
TON.

It is amusing to see the way in which
Democratic journals are trying to show
that the result of the recent election is not
an endorsement of President McKinley's
Administration. What do bis increased
electoral vote and greatly enlarged popu'
lar majority mean
Tue war was made, from start to finish,
by the Bryanites on the Administration.
There was nothing, even Of the most trivial
character, which Mckinley had done since
his Inauguration that was not violently
end viciously assaulted.
The Dlngley bill, which was an Admin
istration measure, was denounced as an
iniquitous law, and claimed by Mr.. Bryan
and all his followers to have been enacted
for the benefit of trusts. The new cul'
rency law was also vigorously assailed; and
the whole economic policy of the Admins
tration made a leading issue by the Bryan.
ties.
The chief fight, however, was made
against the foreign policies Of President
Mckinley. Every act of the Administra-
ton from the time the war with Spain be-
Gan to its conclusion had been closely
watched, and criticism made where praise
was due. The Administration was not
only charged with inhumanity to the Fill
pinos, but with violating good faith in its
treatment of the inhabitants of the Philip
pines. Imperialism was made, by the plat
form of the Democracy and by the speech
of acceptance of Mr.. Bryan, the paramount
issue of the campaign. A strong and de-
termined effort was made throughout the
campaign to impress the people with the
belief that Mr.. Mckinley and the Republi'
can party were trying to override the Con-
stitution and destroy our republican form
of government.
How should the verdict of the people,
given at the polls on the 9Th inst, be con-
strued There is but one intelligent con-
struction to be given it. The people did
not have faith in the declarations of Mr..
Bryan and the Democratic platform. They
did not believe what was said about the
Republican party and the Administration.
They did believe in the honesty, patriot
ism and wisdom of Mr.. Mckinley and en-
dorsed what he had done, not what the
Democracy charged him with having done.
No administi alton ever received more
emphatic endorsement by the people than
has President McKinley's.

DAIRY SUGGESTIONS.

We cannot afford to run cows on hall
time.
Cool the milk and keep it at a given
temperature.
Care, cleanliness and cold are the
three "c's" of milk production.
Overalls should be clean. Don't have
them stiffened with dairy starch.
Don't make strainer do too much
work. Have fresh one for every ten
or a dozen cows.
Manage to have the cows come fresh
so as to maintain a uniform supply
throughout the year.
The feed does not affect the richness
of the milk. You cannot tell by the
looks of the milk how rich it is.
To get high grade milk brush the
COWS before milking, and it is advised
by many that the udders be clipped.
The German dairymen have stall
which seems nearly perfect. The plat
form is just the right length for the
COW. and behind it is a deep ditch Of
six or eight inches, with ledge part
way down, so that the COW in slipping
off does not slip clear to the bottom.
The COWS soon learn to stand out Of
the ditch and keep perfectly Clean

OUR ELECTION LAW.
staunton Daily News, Dem.

Staunton Daily News, Dem.
"Honest Injun," now, is it fair and
square to have an election law that con-
ceals the shape and form Of the ballot I'M
til the voter goes in to vote, and then
spring on him ballot quite a half yard
long, which must be marked in short
time, in very careful way, SO that even
the best educated and most careful may
readily mark it wrong? Is this not a spe-
ces of Juggling with a sacred right that is
unworthy of the people proud of being
called honest2
The elecsion,law is said to be patterned
after the Australian ballot" but that is
rank deception. Under the genuine
Australian system of voting, the different
parties are arranged in groups on the bal
lot, each party with its party emblem,
and copy of the official ballot is posted
for week or more before election in some
conspicuous place where the people can
study it and learn just how to mark it
properly.
This is the genuine Australian system,
and it is designed to help the electOr to
cast an intelligent ballot. 1t is law to
assist the voter, whereas the Virginia law
is one to confuse and mislead him, and
cause him to cast defective ballot, or a
ballot contrary to his convictions. The
Virginia law is, therefore, device I'M
worthy of State with the history and
character of Virginia. 1t ought to be
changed and made an honest law with
honest purposes, sure to bring out honest
results.

THE GOLD DEMOCRATS.
Philadelphia Press. ]

Philadelphia Press
The fullest and heartiest acknowledge
ment should be made of the services rem
dered in the recent Presidential campaign
by the genuine Gold Democrats. They
had the courage of their conscience and
when their sense Of duty prompted them
to vote against the candidate of their par
ty they did not hesitate to follow its die
tates. Their act deserves ever praise and
it should be given without stint or reser-
walton.
Far different is the feeling toward those
so-called sound money Democrats who on
one pretext or another excused them
selves for deserving the stand they took
four years ago and going over to Bryan.
They can scarcely look back today on
their course during the campaign with
satisfaction, or be content with the reason
they gave for their action. The so'called
bogy of 'imperialsm" which they con-
iured up and with which they tried to
frighten a nation of 76,250,0O0 people
as grown men and women sometimes try
to frighten children, vanished into thin
air before the campaign was over and left
them without a reasonable defense for
their course. The nation will not soon
forget that Richard Olney, Edward NJ.
Shepard, Josiah Quincy, Carl Schurz and
others whose only title to notoriety is that
they quadrennially change their political
status, deserted it at critical period and
went over to the side of dishonest money
and class hatred.
Their action, however, only brings out
in stronger and more favorable light the
course Of the genuine Gold Democrats
who remained true to their convictions.
The action of such Gold Democrats as ex-
Secretary Carlisle, ex-Controlier of the
Currency Eckles, ex-Mayor Hewitt, ex-
Senator Lindsay of Kentucky and ex-
Senator Butler of South Carolina and
others shines by contrast. The nation
will bear in mind the aid they brought it
and will render them as much honor as it
will heap contempt upon those who
skulked.

that the official ballots were dishonest in

The Hon. j. Sterling Morton's general
advice seems to be to nominate man in
1904 who can get enough votes to get
elected. Richmond Times.
Mr.. Morton recognizes that success in
getting "thar" being the fundamental
principle of Democracy, the only way to
hold the party together is to nominate q
man who can get enough votes to be
elected. Fortunately for the country it
looks like Democracy will never again
find that kind of man.

Mr.. McKinley's wise silence, Mr.. Bry-
