ing at evidences of prosperity square In
the face and declaring that there was
no such thing as good times. But the
people are not the fools Mr.. Bryan takes
them to be. AS an instance we quote
from letter written to the New York
Times, which says: II was present on
Wednesday when Mr.. Bryan made his
speech at Yonkers. He fired Off an i'm
passloncd sentence about what the Re-
publican party had doEc In the way OF
stopping factories and neglecting
schools to an audience proud OF Its pub
lie school system ard Its thriving fac
tories. He paused and smiled. but
there was not ripple of response.
Within sight OF where he stood there
was u line Of trucks Gu Dock street n
quarter OF mile long, blocked on their
way to the wharf Whcrc boats were ly-

The death OF John Sherman closes, one
OF the most remarkable public careers
In American history. For over half a
century he has been prominent In ma
tional affairs. He was without doubt
the greatest iinancier in this or ATTY
other country, and his chief fame rests
on the record he mhde In bringing about
the resumption OF spscic payments. But
he WIS an able man In other things. He
WAS forcible and logical speaker. but
lacked the personal magnetism OF
Blaine. Had he combined that quality
with the gifts OF mind with which ma

that the only form OF coercion that will

will be by the wives OF the men who
work for wages. D
"Many of the women" says the
Leader. keep the family pocketbook.
They know whether times are good or
bad by the amount of money they get
every pay day. They have not failed
to notice the change that has! taken
place since 1896. Then their husbands
were. many OF them. without employ
ment. Others were working but three
days week and at reduced wages.
There has been q change since then.
Every man who wants work can get 1t.
Fifty per cent more men are employed
now than four years ago. and NIL are
earning wages 10 or Is per cent higher
than those received then. The wife
who receives the pay envelope every
two weeks or month, as the case may
be. knows the difference. She remcm-
bers how she and the children were
forced to so without clothing four years
ago, even II che was able to supply the
table, and she remembers how many lit
tie Injuries she had to go without then
which she can get now. She knows also
where she can put the surplus that has
been accumulated during the past three
or four years after she has provided
food and clothing for the family.
The voters may be careless. but their
wivrs-lf they are good wives. and most
OF them are-w1ll tell their husbands not
to vote to return TO Democratic times.
That Is about the only coercion and In
tlmidation there Is likely to be In this
campaign, and the more we have OF CO.

frugal wives the better for the coun-

The sober sense Of the people tells
them that Bryanis doomed to sure de-
feat. The impression grows that the
avalanche Of Mckinley votes that will
sweep him to oblivion is going to sur
pass all early expectation. But men
who are responsible for the success Of
large undertakings. men who have con-
troll Of the money of many investors,
though individually they may be en-
tlrely confident OF Bryan's defeat, feel
/. that they can afford to take no risks.
Irreparable, disaster would be the con-
sequence OF mistaken Judgment. They
choose the prudent part and wait, as
they have been waiting all summer. 7
Bryan costs the people Of the, United
States vastly more than their standing
army" His two candidates. have cost
us more than the whole expense Of the
Spanish war, including the Incidental
outlay for imperialism" Bryan

of the country's business. What a
blessed deliverance Il will be when we
are finally rid OF him!"
