lnlnSS are coming our way.
A short day is better than a short
dollar.-William Mckinley.
The vote OF next November will decide
the length of the war in the Philip
pines.
Mr.. Bryan's sneers at the full dinner
pail will not efface the memory of the
workingmen.
The Democratic party is consistent
in that It is keeping up its record for
inconsistency.
Wear the Flag.
Mr. Bryan will omit all illusions to
the Tammany ice trust during his cam
paign tour of New York.
The drift of public sentiment is
growing stronger every day in favor
of the Republican party.
The Hon. George Fred Williams de-
clines to permit some of the gold DEM
ocrats to return to the party.
Those who uphold law and order
wear the Flag.
The Republican party is the party
that performs The Democratic party
is the party that promises only.
Currency is now going west and
south to move the crops. Never before
did it have such a job of moving to
perform.
Fly the Flag.
Senator Wellingtonton goes away
from home to do his campaigning. BY
this move he manages to escape some
of the wrath of his constituents.
The difference between Organism
and Democracy is the difference be-
tween politics in its worst sense and
craftsmanship in its historical sigifca-
ton.
Bryan despairs of the future of the
country because the voters insist on
permitting business to influence their
politics, and yet he himself has grown
wealthy by making politics his busi-
ness.
1t is safe to predict that free silver
will never again find place in q Demo-
cratic platform, but it will take the
party long time to overcome the stig-
ma of having adopted such financial
heresy.
Don't haul down the Flag.
Mr.. Bryan fears that the full dinner
pail may not last through the cam
paign. 1t is sure to do that, but it will
be empty pretty soon after election, if,
by any unexpected accident he should
be elected.
The settlement of the differences be-
tween the steel workers and their en-
ployers is serious blow to the Demo-
cratic managers. A campaign which
depends upon business depression is
naturally fragile and sensitive.
Those who uphold law nnG order
wear the Flag.
A multiplicity of paramount issues
has not been productive Of harmony in
the Democratic household. Even those
who desire to follow their leaders have
had to "about face" so often that they
cannot for the life of them tell whether
they are coming or going.
After the November elections the
gold Democrats will be in position to
say 81 told you so, and it will be their
turn to dictate the conditions for res
toration to membership Tor those who
abandoned the worship of the true
principles of Democracy for the privi-
lege of dancing around the silver calf.
The Democratic papers print with
ghoulish glee every piece of news cal
culated to show with more or less ac-
curacy that the Filipinos are rising
everywhere and killing the soldier boys
of the United States. But they forget
to add that the responsibility for it
rests with some of the Democrats.
In 1895, under Democratic adminis-
tration, our favorable trade balance
was $75, ,56S, 200. During the last three
years, under the Republican policy of
expansion in the worlds markets, our
valuable trade balance has averaged
more than $565 100000 each year. This
means more work for the mills and
more work for American labor.
