WorE;ngmen Not Deluded by Bryan's An
archistic Appeals.
GERMANS TRUE TO M'KINLEY.
Blocking TO the Republican STANDARD by Thou.
sands Convincing Arguments by John
D. Crimnias and Senator Hanna.

Mr.. Bryan is now reduced to his LAST
. resort. All his hitherto paramount is
tues-imperlalism free silver. thetrusts,
calamity" the empire. etc.-havinS
proved failures, he has now allowed
himself to descend TO the lowest level
of dcnagogery and is seeking to cor
raj" the labor vote by preaching hatred
nnd jealousy of the rich and by assert
ing that the Republicans propose to
maintain large standing army hence
forth for the purpose OF subjuga ting
labor and intlmidating workingmen-
This assertion, which Is nothing less
than an outrageous falsehood, has not
had the effect which lie intended and
expected. 1t has served TO stir up the
passions of the idle and vicious classes
and has borne fruit in the shape Of
sundry riotous outbreaks and personal
assaults upon Governor Roosevelt, Sen
ntor Hanna and other distinguished
Republicans. But there Is no evidence
that 1t has infected the mass OF sober,
Industrious workingmen. Even the
miners on strike have shown no in
creased tendency toward the Demo-
cratic ticket. In fact, Il delegation
from the Wilkcsbarre region recently
called upon the Republican national
committee and informed them that
they were Republicans and that the
strike had not affected the politics of
the strikers.
MIR. CrimmIna' Statement.
One of the most forcible appeals to
laboring men which the campaign has
produced is that which Mr.. John ID.
Crimmins recently published. MI.
Crimmins has been lifelong Demo-
crat and is one OF the most extensive
employers of labor in the country. His
appeal has already had a powerful in
tiuence on the workinsnien. and 1t liz
believed that not less than 10000 OF
them In New York alone will change
from Bryan to Mckinley In conse-
uuence. Mr.. Crlmmins said In part:
Upon the one great issue to be de:
cided at the polls In November the for
eign born voters, the worklngmen OF
ali nationalities and beliefs, can vote
but one way. as l see the situation.
