M'KINLEY'S LETTER OF ACCEPT
ANCE

There has been general cOmmenda-
ton of President McKinley's letter Of
acceptance of the Republican nomina-
ton. Much of Mr.. McKinleys letter
is naturally devoted to review of the
course which has been pursued by his
administration in the matter of the
Philippines He recites the circum-
stances under which we became charged
at Manila with responsibilities from
which there was no escaping and re-
calls the various steps which have been
taken to establish order in the Philip
pines, to ascertain the truth of the
conditions existing there, to frame the
kind of government which should best
be adapted to the situation, to reassure
the people of the benevolence of our in.
tentions with regard to them, and to
promote in every way the welfare Of
the community with a due observance
Of our duty, not only toward the small
fraction Of the Philippine population
which is in arms or which is in SYM
pathy with the insurgents, but toward
the whole Philippine people, and not
only toward them, but toward foreign
countries having interests involved,
and also toward ourselves, The demon
stration made by the facts which Mr..
Mckinley recites is that the United
States government has dealt judicious-
ly and consciously with difficult sit
uation which was not of it's seeking.
but with which through the force Of
circumstances it was unescapably con-
fronted and that in every step that he
has taken the president kept carefully
within the limits of his constitutional
authority and most scrupulously avoid
ed the slightest infraction of the rights
and prerogatives of the legislative
body.
No one can read Mr.. McKinley's re-
view of recent history in the Philip
pines without being impressed with the
spirit of candor and sincerity by which
every line of it Is animated.

GOVERNMENT MUST PROTECT
Speaker Henderson Wants This Re-
public Respected Everywhere.

Speaker of the House d. B. Hender-
son, in addressing his comrades at the
recent Grand Army encampment, said:
Just before taking the train night
before last to come to Chicago to have
an all round good time with my COM
rades of the Grand Army | received a
telegram from the president Of this
club asking me to take the place of
President Mckinley. am not here for
that purpose. No man in this republic
can take the place of President McKin
ley. And. gentlemen. when the ballots
are counted in November the patriotic
and sensible people of this country will
demonstrate to the world that no man
will be permitted to take his place.
The name of Hamilton suggests
three thoughts that may be appropri-
ate to 1900; first. a strong government;
second. just government; third. a
protective government.
in this great world OF ours, full Of
powerful, massive. aggressive govern
ments. this nation as a government
must be strong to take care of our peo-
pie and their interests. No government
can be strong that is not just. We
cannot hold the love and support of our
people unless we are just in the enact
ment, in the Interpretation and in the
execution of law.
This government must protect cap
ital and labor and give each a fair
chance. 1t must protect the rich and
the poor. the black and the white and
the brown, also Mr.. Bryan. Unless we
have a government big enough to ex-
tend its protective power everywhere
that old flag floats II will come short OF
Its duty. Aye. gentlemen. 1t must be
a government that will protect its citi-
zens In the heart OF Chicago or In the
heart Of China.
"These doctrines OF Hamilton, which
l assume are supported by this club,
must be the text word Of the hour !
want elected man who not only
preached those doctrines. but. like Me-
Kinley. acted them from his heart,
because ! believe In those doctrines.
and | urge the American people TO
support the men who believe In them.
Therefore, | cry out tonight In the
midst OF this republic. Elect at the
next election William Mckinley and
Theodore Roosevelt.

was most happily received. and he was
heartily Cheered AS he resumed his
seat

BRYAN AND THE FARMERS.
Senator ScOtt's Com mMents On the Sill
yer Mans Speeches tn Mary
land and Vert NirRInia.

Members of the Republican national
committee have expressed surprise at
Mr.. Bryan's speeches in West Virginia.
1t was expected by the committeeman
generally that the burden Of his dis
courses In the east would be the i'm
perialist ISSUE" but he has taken an
other tack in Maryland and West Vir-
ginia. In conversation ON the subject
Senator N. II. Scott said.
"Mr. Bryan has shifted his ground
again and put another slide into his
magic lantern. We thought this was
to be his week for Imperialism. but in
stead of that he has switched oil Oh
TO the farmer issue and has informed
the farmers of West Virginia how they
have suffered under the Mckinley ad-
ministration. He tells them that the
times are hard, and that they havnt
got any money, or II they have II Is not
due To the Republican policy. lie also
promises To give them more money,
but neglecta TO say that this new money
will not be worth half AS much az their
present money To be sure. he says IL
has happened that the farmers have
never had better crops OF better de-
mand for them al home or abroad aud
that money Is pouring into this coun'
try from Europe, but this only happen
ed-the Republicans had nothing To do
with a. And so forth. II really IN an
interesting question whether Mr.. Bry-
an or any other sane man can actually
believe that ths intelligent farmers Of
America take any stock Ia such trans-
parent nonsense as this, when the
simple fact II that the farmers are la
much better condition than ihes We're
four years aso. aad. Indeed. we're never
so we'll on AS now. This IL the untser-
sal testimony "a fthe farmers them
