In advocating bill for an appropriation
OF $75, 900 for colored industrial school,
Senator Williams, of Hartford county, said (:
1--WE have the colored people among us, and
we are in measure responsible for them.
II we do not elevate them they will lower
u.s." We have always had high opinion
of Senator Williams, but such declarations
as that do not serve TO sustain IT, After a
continuous effort OF thirty'fve years TO ele-
vate the negro, he is as low as ever, and the
Senator from Hartford knows ii, and might
as we'll acknowledge that their elevation is
impossible. And as for the assertion that
they will lower us-it is unworthy any man
who respects bis race and is confident OF Its
inherent superiority. Maryland has been
most generous in this "elevating" process

DTHE EMPIRE rs AT PEACE"

Mr. Platt announces the solution of all his
problems and the completion of his slate
through the subOrdination of all dissenting
voices with the words: 1.-THE empire is at
peace" 1t is happy and Illuminating phrase.
When the emperor is able to hold undisputed
sway the empire is at peace.
It is quite possible to build an empire in
political party, and under certain circumstances
secure peace 1t is possible to make such
peace that delegates at a State convention on
arrival will find nothing to do and, like the
Syracuse man told Of yesterday, go home. 1t
is possible to make states in peace when affairs
of greater moment than smashing the slate
occupy the voters. as they do this year when
the great battle against Organism must be
fought and the village Hampdens must be left
to rule their empires in peace
Yet, while enjoying the uncontested SOW
ereignty of his empire at peace, Mr.. Platt
ought not to forget the dangers of some kinds
of peace Tactus speaks of the people who
make a solitude and call 1t peace. There is such
a thing as the peace of death. The empire Is
indeed at peace. But is the empire growing in
strength and power? That is the question for
an emperor with battles to win.

4 DESTRUCTIVE APOLOGY.

Carl Schurz's open letter TO Secretary Gage
will probably make Colonel Bryan sigh for
some means of protecting himself against over
Jealous apologists. The challenge offered in
Secretary Cages recent forecast of Treasury
conditions under Administration pledged to
remove ali limitations on the use of silver was
one which the Fusion Presidential candidate
himself was quite unready 10 reply to. The
Secretary Of the Treasury had shown that a
President bent on subverting the single gold
standard could. under existing law, order all
outstanding coin obligations redeemed in silver
alone, thus checking the circulation of gold
and deranging the machinery by which all kinds
of money issued by the Government are kept at
an unquestioned parity. When Colonel Bryan
was asked in Lincoln by a correspondent of
'"The New-York Herald whether, If elected
President, he would pay the Governments coin
demand notes in silver and silver only, his
evasive answer was: Il will discuss public
questions in my own way and in my own
time" Colonel Bryan has made many speeches
since then, but in none has he found occasion
10 say that he would or would not favor a policy
Of note redemptions to which he is logically
committed by every theory of finance be has
held or advocated for the last four years.
On a question of policy which the Nebraska
darkness one of the newest recruits to his
canvass Unexpectedly volunteers TO throw an
embarrassing food Of light. Mr.. Schurz in his
open letter chides Secretary Gage with spread
ing false alarms and picturing dangers to
National credit in Colonel Bryan's election
which do not exist" But the dialectic on
which Colonel Bryan's self-constituted apologist
bases his easy confidence in the maintenance of
the gold standard is as whimsically distorted as
any 70 be found in the Iibrettos of Gilbert
That Secretary of the Treasury appointed by
Mr.. Bryan would probably do all he could unde,

the United States On a basis Of silver mono

Nothing has been more absurd. nothing more
specious. since the beginning of this Presiden-
tial campaign than Bryan's attempt, often re-
peated, TO summon Lincoln as a witness in
favor of the Bryanite schemes and theories
Some OF the earlier attempts were so trans
parent, and were met with a refutation so
speedy and complete, that the Democratic can
didate might we'll have abandoned a line of
argument the falsity of which was too easily
exposed, but he did nothing of the sort. In his
Labor Day address at Chicago he presented the
following pretended extract from President
Lincolns first annual message to Congress,
transmitted in December, 1851:
Monarchy itself is sometimes hinted at as a
possible refuge from the power OF the people. In
my present position 1 could scarcely be justified

the approach of returning despotism. II is not

But such climax could certainly not be more
extravagantIy Gilbertian than any OF the Prep

Treasury by the expiring LVIth Congress would
hold should the With Congress, chosen con-
currently with Colonel Bryan, yield to MS de-

Kansas CITY platform be made good by the
repeal of the gold standard legislation OF lSoo.
For nothing is more probable than that Ooiohei
Bryan's election as President would carry
Democratic majority into the House and give
deciding vote in the Senate TO Vice-Presldent
Stevenson In view of such a result. Mr
Schurzs appeal to an expiring and defeated
marty In Congress to tie the hands OF newly
chosen Administration becomes too farcical Tor
serious notice. Colonel Bryan has shown
certain lack of sincerity this year in trying TO
shirk the consequences of his unconditional
championship of a cheapened silver dollar. But
if he is not ready to sacrifice every shred of his
reputation for consistency and honesty, he must
pray to be delivered from apologies which ex-
cuse his election on the ground that his hands
will be tied by Republican legislation before he
can lay them on the throat of National honor
and National credit.
