TELLER vs.. BRYAN.

senator Teller on the Fnn0ount lseoo
Two Yeass Ago
In his letter of acceptance Mr.. Bryan
set all other issues to one side for the
sake Of his main issue Of ''anii-impeH-
ialism- when he declared that when
shat issue shall have been disposed Of
I'VE can safely proceed TO the settle
ment Of the numerous questions which
Involve the domestic and economic wei
fare OF our ciiizens.'
In this there Is something for the ex-
pansionists OF Colorado to think about.
He cast himself loose from the people
of this state who followed him In 1896
and has planted himself directly across
the path which they desire to pursue
In regard TO the relations which the
United States shall bear to the remain
der OF the world. He hns distinctly
made anti-expansion which he miscalls
"nnti-imperialism." the issue upon
which the battle for the presidency
shall be fought.
ON this issue the people Of Colorado
are not with him. They believe In the
policy which the administration has
adopted. and they Will never consent
that 1t shall be abandoned ai the COM
mand Of malcontcnts nj home or enc
mics abroad. BY the aid Of soldiers
who went out from Colorado the AM
ericnn flag was planted In the Philip
a.. S..sl
ence OF Colorado can go, 1t will remain
until the purpose OF the government In
that quarter of the world shall have
been fully accomplished
The people Of this state indorse what
Senator Teller said 10 the address de
iiyered by him before the Silver Re
publican state convention at Colorado
Springs on September 8. 1908. when. In
speaking Of the Philippine Islands, he
declared:
These islands are In the line OF the
great commerce Of the world. They
are worth millions to US, and we car
hold them without any disadvantage
to us. We can hold them no they will
be a glory TO us, and glory to the
people over whom we extend our flag
and our republican institutions. am
one of those who believe that a re-
public is better than n monarchy. l
believe the voice OF 100000 900 OF men
is better than the voice OF one, and l
have faith In the American people, In
their intelligence. In their integrity, In
their ability. and l am willing to trust
these great problems TO them, and /
say we shall make no mistake II we
say to them: I'VE have put our nag
here. We have buried our dead, and by
the eternal the dag shnli stay while
the Union lives"
This is not Mr.. Bryan's doctrine. but
1t Is the one which u great majority
Of the people of Colorado and other
parts OF the Far West indorse. II will
not be repudiated by them, however
much Senator Teller may endeavor to
explain away his words In an effort
to seem consistent In the support of
Mr.. Bryan now. There is nothing in
the attitude of Mr.. Bryan or any Of
his followers to attract to his standard
the people Of a state who have never
yet been unfaithful to the flag Of the
nation.
