silver speech in the Senate yesterday he
learned that Col. Bryan was in one of the
rooms back of the Senate chamber. He

erai prominent men of both parties. Mr..
chandler produced some of the memoran-
ola for his speech showed them to Bryan,
and said:
What do you think of my Republican
orthodoxy now?"
Don't you think" retorted the Colonel,
that It's about time you learned the
hopelessness of trying to reform the Re-
publican party from the inside?"
Everybody laughed, and Chandler roll
ed up his memoranda and retired.

ing OF anarchistic doctrines by speakers

terms
All the people who pay the taxes viii
spend what we spend. and the syndicates
organized to exploit the islands will get
what we get back.
Yet at the outset Mr.. Bryan warned
the people Of this Coast that they should
oppose imperialism although it would be
very profitable 10 them. Are the ex-
plotting syndicates, then. Seattle con-
Germs?
When a man tells You that he wants
an imperialistic policy because IT will
pay, etc.
That man never had any existence In
the United states outside Of Mr.. Bry-
ans Imagination. Yet he is the founda-
ton for at least one-half Of his entire
argument against expansion.

the candidate Of such a party to de-
nounce as 'monarchieal" the system Of
absolute local self-government which we
have pledged to the Philippines
Scores on scores of assertions and as
sumptions equally half-baked, untrue
and malicious can be taken from the
words of Mr.. Bryan as they fell from
his own lips. These are the choicest
gifts that he has to offer. These are
his Jewels What wonder that his de-

temptuous. His are pinehbeck orna-

for the breeding of anarchistic senti-
ments in the breasts of peaceful men,
who saw their families suffering, and
who knew that something was wrong,
who could not in cold blood analyze the
causes, but were prepared TO accept the
prescription of any political quack, or
try any remedy from any source. They
are thankful today that the forces of
conservative good sense triumphed, and
that those prosperous conditions have
been restored which have always ac-

remained until called upon for further
destructive operations had not Gov.
Steunenberg resolved that the reign OF
terror must cease even If the federal
government had TO be called upon.
1t was to root out this conspiracy and
purge the Occur d'Alene district of as
sassins, dynamiters and lawless mis-
creants that Steunenberg called for
United States troops, and it was the
last resort. In no other way could out
lawry have been suppressed. The en-
tire community was at the mercy of
band Of rioters pledged to do mischief,
use Of force A temporizing policy after
six years trial had resulted in failure.
The alternatives were TO suppress the
league of malefactors and rid the eouu-
try of them or to allow the district to
remain in the hands OF the mob and
bring further disgrace TO the state Of
Idaho. Gov. Steunenberg decided upon
the former course, and pursuing ii reso-
lutely, has broken up the conspiracy
and brought peace and order where be-
fore there was intimidation and terror.
He has succeeded in destroying what
was a standing menace to the mining
districts of northern Idaho, and in ac-
complishing this he has done much for
his state, much for organized labor,
that has nothing in common with these
desperadoes. and a great deal for his
and honest man.

SHENANDOAH, Pa, Oct. 1.-The notice
posted yesterday by the Philadelphia
and Reading Coal and Iron company
announcing an increase in wages of 10
per cent to all of its employees was ig-
nored by the striking mine workers and
none of them went to the workings this
morning. 1t was the impression here
last night that no attempt would be
made today to operate the idle collieries,
and this feeling was strengthened by the
fact that the soldiers were not ordered
to patrol the roads at an early hour this
morning. General Goblin is prepared
for trouble in the Panther Greek valley,
which has not yet been effected by the
strike.
