II MEANS IMPERIALISM.

Nowhere have we seen q better
summing up Of the paramount issue
of this campaign than this statement
in the Charleston, Is. C.) News and

the success of Bryan means the
preservation Of the republic. 1t will
never be again what it once Yves, and
the best we can nope for It is 10
Save the pieces. We have reached
the parting Of the ways and must
have the republic Of Grant-who
bitterly opposed tie annexation of
Mexican territory on the ground
that a republic should not follow the
bad example of European monarch
ies-or the empire of Mckinley"
That is The whole case in a nut
shell. 1t is question the people
cannot ignore. 1t effects Tie very
existence Of tie government. Never
in American history have the voters
been called upon So definitely to say
as to whether they want the stars and

lentless war against distant millions
and have the flag TO them symbolic
