THE cROKERJOyEs THREATS.

The whole Bryanite Democracy dances for
Mr.. Cookers piping. 1t becomes daily more
evident that when Mr.. Bryan announced.
"Great is Tammany, and Croker is its prophet"
he paid only the due allegiance which his party
acknowledges il owes TO its most typical leader.
Mr.. Croker tells his supporters to go TO the
polls and break heads il their vote does not
make the desired showing, and Senator James

Bryanite National Committee. Immediately takes

BRY4NITE FAITH.

Mr. Bryan needs to turn his attention from
the denunciation of the wicked fmperialistic
Republicans to the education Of his fol-
lowers in political morality. He is wonderful
ly indignant over President McKinley's treat
ment of the people who We're brought under
our care by the war with Spain, and is never
tired of charging him with deep and treacher-
designs upon them. Yet here comes one Of
his organs with a proposition which If made
by anybody connected with the Administration
would he denounced rs the acme of perfidy and
dshOnOr, browning and proving all that has
been charged against the Republicans as brutal.
force loving impcrasts. A few days ago Sen
ator Beveridge. speaking at Louisville said that
the promise by Congress Of independence to
Cuba was mistake. and added that the day
would surely come when Cuban people them
selves would demand the control of Cuba by
the American Government. This led The
Nashville American" stanch Democrat and
a supporter of Mr. Bryan, to declarations not
merely of approval of what Mr.. Beveridge has
said about ultimate annexation, but of desire
TO repudiate our pledges. 1t says:
In an article written in the spring Mr. Olney
said the resolution Of Congress demanding Cuba
should forever be free and independent adopted
on the eve Of war and amid great excitement
not binding on the people Of the country.
He is right, and Beveridge is right and the
send the Maine 10 Havana? Why did we
determine TO drive the Spaniards from Cuba?
To preserve domestic tranquility. was 1t
not? To free the Cubans from intolerable
rule went with It. but the fundamental purpose
to stop a disturbance at our door
And now, having stopped that disturbance,
going TO take Cuba or let It go? Geo
graphically It IS part Of the United States.
1t is the key the Gulf of Mexico. We have
great interests in the Gulf Of Mexico. Cuba is,
moreover, a breeding place for yellow fever and
epidemic diseases
We must It, clea It up and keep It. The
safety and future hai piness OF seventy-lve
million Americans demand 1t.
The anti-imperiasts never lose an oppor
tunity to tell the Cubans they may we'll be dis
trustful of the United States under Republican
rule and that Mr. Mckinley will not keep faith
with them and they call for the supremacy o.
a party that will restore the good name OF
America for fair dealing with the weak Let
1t be noted that the demand for the breaking
of our promise on the ground that il was hastily
and unwisely given is put forth not by Re
publican, but by a Democrat. and that the oriSi-
nation Of the idea IS credited to Richard Olncy,
a Sound Money. expansion Democrat, who IS
supporting Mr. Bryan because he fears that
Mr. Mckinley would do all sorts Of wicked
things IN expanding Republican Imperialism
is something terrible in the eyes OF Mr.. Olney
but a little matter like keeping your word IS
apparently Of no account.

denied that the tunnel in almost any month
