A RAINBOW CHASER.

The Courier today publishes an
authorized interview with the Hon.
Cato Sells on the political situation,
because we wanted the public and Re-
publicans especially to know on what
food the Democratic leaders are feed
ing the people. 1t needs only casual
glance at what Mr.. Sells has to say
to see that he is rainbow chaser of
the first degree, and that he is just
now doing great deal of whistling to
keep UP his courage. 1t is possible
that Mr.. Sells has worked himself up
to the belief that there will be a de-
lection in the republican vote in Iowa
this year and a consequent ratio of
gain in the vote given to the demo-
cratic electoral ticket. But Mr.. Sells
does not attempt to nor can he posi-
bly, furnish the slightest evidence or
proof to sustain the prediction which
he makes. Mr.. Sells declaration as
to the enhanced popularity of Mr.. Bry-
an in the east is not borne out by the
facts as known to the republican ma.
tional committee. 1t is important
however, to republicans that they
should know on what political pabu.
lum the democratic hosts are being
fed by their leaders. and that every
republican and every citizen interest
ed in the continuation of prosperity
and good times should arouse himself
to action and see to it that there is
no possibility of such a catastrophe
coming upon this country as the cleo.

TOO MUCH FOR BRYAN. =
Questions About Silver That the
Great Ex-Exponent Failed
to Answer,

On August IA, 1896, the New York.
World editorially asked William Jen-
nings Bryan the following questions,
and up to this date Mr.. Bryan has never
answered them. 1t is freely charged
that he cannot truthfully answer them,
giving facts and figures to verify his
reply. Read the questions and in the
light of Mr.. Bryan's inability to an
swer them refer, them to your nearest
free silver friend. Here are the ques-
tons: rs there any country in the
world now on the silver basis which is
as prosperous as the United States,
even in this time (1s96) of depression?"
us there any in which wages are SO
high as they are here, or in which the
dollar received in wages will buy so
much?" us there any silver basis
country that has a large commerce,
prosperous manufacturers or a well-to-
do agricultural CLASP" "Isit not fact
that in every silver basis country in the
world abject and hopeless poverty on
the part of the masses is the ruler" i

FORTY PIECES OF SILVER.

Aguinaldo, that noble knight of
progress, that standard-bearer of civ
ilization, the George Washington Of
modern times, has shown himself at
last in his true colors He has posted
notice Offering $40 to every Ameri-
can soldier who will surrender him
self into Aguinaldos hands.
This, then, is the conception that
the nineteenth century father of his
country has of patriotism. His great
mind spontaneously expands to the
point of compromising that love of
fatherland and flag, reckoned on a
free silver basis, is worth just $40,
cash in hand. Here is marvellous
breadth of mind, wonderful under
standing, a fine grasp of the .rue
meaning of the republican forms of
government which build their super
structures wholly upon foundation
of staunchest patriotism.
This is the man whom democrats
and other pessimists have honored
with a worship second only to that
which they bestow upon their SUI
preme idol, William Jennings Bryan.
This is the man whose praises ring
from every democratic stump. This
{ is the man whom we have been in
formed was sent by God to deliver
his countrymen in general and the
Tagols in particular, out of the hands
of the Philistine Mckinley. He it is
who is to set up and manage a great
Malay republic which is to become ESQ
7 say the spell-binders) as great and
powerful as our own. And now it all
comes out that this intelligent young
man is forty-dollar statesman after
all; DESTROYS merely of setting up a
tissue paper, forty-dollar republic;
wanting merely a little power and 4
cheap gilded stage on which to act a
part. Most bitter of all blows to the
Bryan dreamers of this land, however,
must be the knowledge that their
& romantic hero is able to conceive OF
no better love of country or of no bet.
ter citizenship than that embodied in
the compass of forty-dollar patriot
ism.
To revert to Aguinaldo's offer, it
is a happy thought for the American
people that the Tagal George Wash.
ington will never be called upon to
pay out forty dollars to any American
soldiers as the price of his honor OF
his allegiance to the flag. There are
no Judas Iscariats in the American
army.
