MONARCHYi

We have received a pOrtentous circular. It
comes from Mr. G. c. Hughes, who describes
himself the Chairman of the Executive Com
mittee and Secretary-Treasurer of the National
Association of Anti-Imperialst Clubs and Presi-
dent of the Greater New-YOrk Association of
Anti-Imperialist Clubs. We are not informed
how many clubs are in the Greater New-YOrk
Association or in the National Association, but
if each honorary vice-president in the list given
has club of his own the movement must be a
tremendous one. We note for instance, six
honorary vice-presdents from that important
centre Suffield Conn, and suspect that the
electoral votes of that place will be strongly
anti-imperialistic. Two vice-presidents from
New-MeXico and four from Oklahoma indicate
the existence of thriving clubs likely to intiu-
ence the vote for President in those communi-
ties. We ourselves are asked to become an homo
rary member of the association. which lis to be
made up of clubs from the different States in
''the Union" but we are not informed what
club we are invited to join or if there be any
clubs. After reading the statement Of prin-
ciples we are expected to support however we
do not know that it much matters. The circular
says:
The object of this association is to support
candidates for Office November 6, 1900 who
are against the destruction of our REPUBLIC.
to abide by the principles Of the Declaration Of
Independence of July 4, 1915, and declare your
adherence TO the Constitution of the United
States.
AS an honorary member of the association you
will staLd for a REPUBLIC against a
MONARCHY, and place record your denial
Of the power of Congress and the President to
rule vast territories and millions Of men outside
and in disregard Of the Constitution.
Impressed with the seriousness of the stu
alton when our choice is between a REPUBLIC
and MONARCHY in large type. we naturally
look TO see what candidates for Office we are to
support in order to prevent the destruction of
the REPUBLIC and ward off the impending
MONARCHY. But we gain no light on the
subject. We haven't heard of any anti-imperial-
list candidate being nominated TO rescue us from
MONARCHY since Senator Caffery declined to
take the Presidency and preserve the REPUB-
Lie. SO we try to find out who among other
candidates is proposing to establish a MON
ARCHY. Who is he? Where is he? With
such serious danger confronting US we should
expect to an aroused nation but the major
ity Of people seem 10 be calm. We should be
glad TO stand for a REPUBLIC as against a
MONARCHY, bur look around for some
body TO fight, and can't discover ANYBODY
who stands mp for the MONARCHY; and we
have no desire TO break lances on inoffensive

TOO LATE.

Having practically completed his arduous
preparations for a spontaneous uprising of New
York in Mr.. Bryan'S honor and support, Mr.
Croker found time yesterday TO announce for
publication that so far from having given $780,
600 to the Democratic National Committee out
of his pocket the Tammany treasury,
he was having great difficulty in raising the
moderate amount of money required for cam
paign purposes right here in this city. I'VE
are taking small subscriptions he said "wher
lever we can get them, and from any one who
will give
Without meaning to disparage Mr.. Cookers
ability as a political manager we venture 70
suggest that he made a serious mistake in not
taking the community into his confidence on
this subject at an earlier date. On his own au-
thority Mr.. Croker is known to be the young
mans friend. 1t tears his heart TO think that
owing 10 Republican Vaccinations the young
men are up against it,: that they have no
prospects in life and never will have any until
Mr.. Bryan becomes President of the United
States. Now, it is perfectly evident that if the
young men had been aware that Mr.. Croker
would accept small campaign subscriptions
wherever he could get them they would have
tumbled over one another in their eagerness TO
contribute There are hundreds of thousands
of young men in this city, and the aggregate
of their contributions would have constituted an
exceedingly handsome campaign fund, which
Mr.. Croker would certainly have taken peculiar
| pride in dsbursing. But the fact was not gen
| orally known. The young men, blinded, per-
haps, by the magnificence of Mr.. Croker's bets
on the election, failed to comprehend the stu
| alton. They feared that their modest offerings
might be rejected, and so they innocently put
them in the savings banks or otherwise in
i vested them.
The worst Of it is that Mr. Cookers explana-
ton comes too late The young men have ascer-
tanned that Mr.. Bryan is going to be defeated,
and perceive that it would be the height of
folly to waste their money in efforts to turn out
| the oppressors, inasmuch the OppressOrs are
already sure to be kept in, and a dollar or two
! will be a convenient thing to have on hand
| after the election, when the grinding down
process begins anew with redoubled energy.

bility of the country Can he and they succeed
in putting out of sight the old cause of enmity!
Can the people of New-York be persuaded that
the election of Mr.. Bryan would mean anything
but the Reputation, depreciation and anarchy
which men like Mr.. Cochran, Mr.. Schurz and
Mr. Shepard told them of in 1896? What reason
can be given them for supposing that Mr. Bryan
is not now much the enemy of their country
as he avowed himself to be when he came into
it four years ago?
None Mr.. Bryan has talked of trusts and
imperialism and injunctiOns and the menace of
our Army TO people who want TO riot, but he has
not in the least repudated the platform of 1896,
with It's free silver free spoils of Office, anarch-
istic. Supreme Court attacking planks. On the
contrary he is committed explicitly to every
one Of them. The Kansas City platform reaf-
firmed the Chicago platform root and branch,
and Mr. Bryan not merely stands upon it In the
perfunctOry fashion of a conventional candidate,
but he dictated il. He has repeatedly declared
that he is still for free silver coinage and will
do all he can to force it upon the country He
said ut GAINESVILLE Ohio, on September 1: The
party stands where 1t did in 1896 on the money
question" NEWCOMERS cannot fail to take
him at his word however much he may strive
not TO say that word in their particular pres
ence What Mr.. Bryan is in Nebraska among
ident and not what he may appear to be on
dress parade here, with his utterances carefully
trimmed to conform far as possible TO local
fashions. But whether he talks of ice trusts or
other trusts of consent of the governed in
North Carolina or in the Philippines, of the
vanity of military glory in a Nebraska politician
or in an expanding republic. whether he talks
of the treaty he helped TO ratify or of the
wickedness of the Presidents holding what was
by that treaty acquired as lawful territory of
the United States which the Chief Magistrate
is by oath bound TO defend, the people of New
York will still remember that he is the same
Mr.. Bryan who was and is for free silver,
who called this the enemy's country in 1896,
and still holds and seeks to put in force
the views which made it such Mr.. Bryan pro-
claims himself to be what he was in 1896.
Therefore he cannot expect the East to be any
thing but what he said it was in 1S96-the en-
emys country.

ANorHER QUESTION FoR BRYAN

Senator Pritchard has tersey put another
question to Mr.. Bryan. which, as he says, it
would be in order for the Free Silver statesman
to answer to the satisfaction of the Nation. Mr..
Bryan has been paying much attention in this
campaign to the question of the Constitution
of the United States in the Philippines. He
insists that 1.-The Constitution follows the flag"
and that, therefore, if the Filipinos are to be
held under the flag they must also be under
all the provisions of the Constitution. Senator
Pritchard suggests that it might be we'll for
Mr.. Bryan to look little nearer home than
Luzon and see to what extent the Constitution
and the flag are coextensive on the American
continent and within the limits Of the original
thirteen States.
In the old charter State of North Carolina, the
electoral vote of which Mr.. Bryan hopes to re-
ceive. two articles of the Constitution have
been practically annulled by Mr., Bryan's political
friends and supporters A law has been enacted
depriving a large part of the people of the
suffrage, not on general grounds of lack of prop
erty or lack of intelligence, but on the specific
ground that they, or their parents or grand
parents. were once slaves. That is in spirit a
most obvious violation of the Fifteenth Amend
ment to the Constitution, and the fact that the
State does that and yet retains its full repre-
sentation in Congress and in the Electoral Col
lege is equally a violation Of the spirit and Of
the letter of the Fourteenth Amendment.
1t is now. says Senator Pritchard, in order
for Mr.. Bryan to inform the people of the United
States as to whether he is in favor of the en-
fOrcement of those amendments within the IN
disputed territory of the United States. If not,
with what grace can he clamor for enforcement
of the whole Constitution in our remote possess
sOns?

IN THE ENEmYs COUNTRY.

Mr. Bryan will arrive once more in Newly Ork
to-day 10 repeat his bid Of four years ago for an
election TO the Presidency. Then he came avow-
edly on an invasion of the enemy's country He
was the apostle of a new dspensation, the ad-
vocate OF startling principles enunciated in the
Chicago platfOrm-principles widely regarded
as dangerously revolutionary, and even by him
self considered as strong meat suited to the di-
gestion of the hardy Westerner, but quite be-
yond the powers Of the New-Englander and
New-Yorker He frankly presented himself be-
fore New Workers as a natural and inevitable
menace TO them. This place the home of
the money changers, the bulwark Of vested in
terests the financial capital and the centre Of
credit To rescue the perishing borrowers and
the oppressed producers of other sections he
was ready TO inflict damage on this creditor
community, where the prosperity of millions of
people is dependent on business stability. This
he held was just and proper. The most he at
tempted TO do was 10 persuade some Fasteners
by appeals TO class hatred that theirs was not
the welfare Of their community in general, and
some others that what he proposed would not,
after all harm them so seriously as they feared
Yet no pretence was made but that what he
proposed were doctrines rightly or wrongly re-
garded as antagonistic TO the predominant in
terests OF the whole East. He came hoping TO
conquer but he came none the less as an enemy.
Now he comes in different guise. He hopes
20 convince the East that it is no longer the
enemys country in his eyes, that his principles
are not, as then, antagonistic TO it's sentiment
and menacing 10 its prosperity. He has covered
his hostility with a cloak Of many colOrs. He
has a patchwork Of issues intended TO distract
the attention of voters here from the supreme
issue on which they were so Overwhelmingly his
enemies in 1896 He will have the support Of
some highly respectable gentlemen who profess
as much as any Of their fellow citizens TO hold
IN detestation Mr. Bryans financial views and
10 dread the application of them in the conduct
OF the United States Government They will do
all they can 10 convince him that he is in the
country of friends and 10 convince the people
that treaty Of peace has been arranged and
that the old enemy is now come q savior and
rescuer. They will say, Never mind silver"
in spite Of their prOclamations four years ago
that nothing was or ever could be more impor-
