What Has Been ATerted.

The last issue OF the American Wool
and Cotton Reporter Is called the
Greater America Number. In which /:
commentaries the tac, that consc-
quences OF permanently disastrous
nature have been ayerted by the re-
election OF President Mckinley. I.
argues that while the election Of Bryan
would have resulted in great financial
disaster to the country, other things
we're threatened that would have been
far more Injurious than the triumph
OF the cause OF free silver for which
Bryan distinctly stood. The Reporter
maintains that bad as would have been
the adoption OF the financial .heresies
OF the Kansas City platform. the coun-
try which has frequently suffered from
financial panlcs could have overcome
the trouble In time. but there was an
other menace whose consequences
would have been FAR reaching. and to
which Bryan was also committed.
In recounting the supreme menace TO
the country which we have escaped by
the reelection Of Mckinley the Repor-
ter says that more than anything else,
the Victory OF November guarantees
this country the opportunity to work
out great destiny as regards It's ma
tcrial Interests. The nation has begun
to expand Its influence into every quar-
ter OF the earth. Nations. like !ndivid.

Open to SUSPICION,


The remarkable action OF Richard
Croker In turning upon the vice by
which Tammany Hall has thrived and
held It's power, is susceptible Of several
explanations. His assertion that he
was not aware OF the w!ckedness shown
up by Bishop Potters letter to Mayor
Van Wyck Is the confession OF an iuno-
cence on his part that no one with q
knowledge OF Cookers career will take
any stock in. AS the days go by /; is
more clearly defined that Tammany
was forced into the position It has
taken. and that its sudden activity for
the publication OF New York Is merely
the cloak Tor well stimulated hypo-
crisy. This suspicion Is strengthen
ed BY Cookers remarks just before sail
Ing for Europe, when he grandilo-
oueutly declared that DR.. Parkhu,st
was responsible for all the vice existing
In New York. but thac Tammany pro-
posed to stamp It out
This Is actually the most ridiculous
assertion tina, could well be made, and
weakens any favorable impression that
has possibly been made. Il reveals the
ins!nce.ity OF all professions made by
Tammany for the betternent OF the
moral condition OF the metropolis. We
believe with a New York journal OF
note. that Tammany- Ike the Irish
snakes In the Irish ballad. has COM
mitsed suicide TO save Itself from
slaughter" Separated from the sup
port OF vice It now processes to be ar
rayed against. It must necessarily fall.

A Queer Cult,

at a recent meeting OF the Society for
Political Study. composed OF women
who are seekers after that knowledge
which will be most beneficial to them,
one OF the members created consider
able OF sensation by advocating the
raw food theory. The apostle Of this
new cult said that the new truth came
20 her In vision-like manner after
reading in the Bible Of Daniels refusal
TO partake OF King Belshazzer's meat
and wine. and Satisfied the cravings OF
his stomach with pulse and water.
Thil she believed to be an uncooked
diet and experimented with It to deter
mine Daniels reason for preterr!rg It
to meat and wine. She then confessed
that for a month or more she had becn
eating oats and hay. or something like
1t, and that she had succeeded in rid-
ding herself OF burdensome flesh, ac-
CURED such strength as she never be-
fore possessed and felt ten years
younger.

She had succeeded In causing her too.

Of len years. a woman will suffer 4
great deal to accomplish thesa things.
but We do not think her raw food theo-
~ will extend to any class OF women
who arc satisfied with their physical
conditions and are not troubled with
the rayases Of time.
However. the theory Is no, 4 new
one by any means. for do we not read
In the same book from which the above
inspiration was drawn, that certain

opment!a and, replies. ain a word, a
vast extension OF the uses for capital
and labor. In short. a Greater Amer
ica' offers the only solution in sight for
the nost serious problem now confront
ing the material interests OF the United
States, the problem OF oyerco,npeti,lon.
Our present limits do not furnish US
enough Investments OF the right sort
for our, capital; neither do they begin
TO provide us with sufficient outlet
for the annual product OF our labor.
So long as there Is congestion of la
Dor and capital the mass OF the people
are bound to be restricted In their en-
5oyment Of the good things Of life. This
tof course, is clearly enough seen in con-
nection with congestion Of labor.
But II Is none the less true when we
turn ont attention to capital; for a mo-
ments reflection must convince one,
that an oYersupply OF capital is sure
to lead to an employment OF funds In
enterprises already done to death by
competition. which means not only the
loss Of the money SO invested. but also
the eventual throwing out Of work Of q
great army Of working people. New
felds for the employment of our capt
tai and new markets for the absorption
OF our products are > god-send to this
nation. It Is because the election OF
Bryan would have Immensely ham

have for Its purpose the enforced re-
tirement OF DR.. N. S. Holt and Hon,
Andrew Edminston from Demo-

must have felt that his political death

Dignifed Silence.
While Holt was the most active DEM
ocrat hereabouts during this campaign.
the Hon.. Andy Edminston maintained a
very d!gnihed and discreet silence.
Andy Is far-seeing and v!ndictIve.
When the Hon. James b. Miller. OF
"nigger-smellIn' fame. was made
chairman OF the state committee, 10
succeed Edminston. twas given out that
the Republicans wouldn't find any
Andy Edmlnston tocome up against and
that Miller was winning fighter.
Andy never spoke, but 1t may be pre-
sumed that he cursed the day that he
obligated himself to lead forlorn hope
without funds In 1856. Nobody ever
heard him say word this campaign.
He probably voted the ticket, hu, he
must have laughed In his sleeve when
jim Miller got through with his fight
this campaign. after having had all the
money he wanted at his command. and
yet made much greater showing than
Andy did without money in 1896.
Edminston's Opinion.
The New York Journal recently
sought the opinion OF a leading Demo-
era, in each state as to Democracy's fu-
ture. 1t sought Etm!nstons opinion for
this state. He gave It, and 1t appeared
in print with many others from other
