Workingmen Not Deluded by Bryan's An
arChistiC Appeals.
GERMANS TRUE TO M'KlNLEY.
Flockine to the Republican Standard by Thou
sands-Co Convincing Arguments by John
D. Crimmins and Senator Hanna.

Mr.. bryan is now reduced to his last
resort. All his hitherto paramount is
sues Imperialism, free silver, the trusts,
calamity" the empire, etc. having
proved failures. he has now allowed
himself TO descend to the lowest level
of dcmagogery and Is seeking To Cor
raj the labor vote by preaching hatred
and jealousy of the rich and by assert
Ing that the Republicans propose To
maintain large standing army hence
forth for the purpose of suhjugating
labor and illuminating worlltngmcn.
This assertion. which is nothing less
than an outrageous falsohood. has not
had the effect which he intended and
expected. 1t has served To stir up the
passions of the Idle and vicious classes
and has borne fruit In the shnpe OF
smdry riotuus outbreaks and personal
assaults upon Governor Roosevelt, Sen
ator Hanna and other distinguished
Republicans But there Is no evidence
that 1t has infected the mass OF sober
Industrious Worlngmcn Even the
miners ON strike hive shown no IN
creased tendency toward the Demo
cratic ticket In fact, II delegation
from the Wiltpsharre 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
Mr.. CrImmins' statement.
One of the most forcihlr appeals 10

produced Is that which MIR luhu u.

employers Of labor In the country His
appeal has already had powerful In
flucnce on the WorkinEmtu. and II Is
believed that not less than 10000 of
them in New York alone Will change
