BRYAN'S JUSTIFICATION FOR
THE PANIC.

What justification does Mr..
Bryan offer for the infection upon
the community of this conceded
panic2 That as the laboring man
is not hog, he wants something
more than full dinner pail. But
why not have the something more,
and the full dinner pail alsoa What
is the objection to that? If imper-
ialism and trusts are, as he says, the
paramount issues, why to fight these
must he tack on a free silver panic2
What objection is there to giving
the country the benefits of an anti
imperialiftlc and antitrust admins
tration, and at the same time, saw
ing it from a free silver dinner pail9
This is the question that suggests it.

STREET RAILWAYS
INDICATE PROSPERITY.
Their Business Has Increased Thirty.
four Per Cent Since 1894.

The street railways of America now
represent the enormous investment in
bonds and stocks of 81 SOC, 100000, upon
which investors are receiving annually
over $7O,OOO,OOO in dividends and inter
est. Salaries and wages amounting to
$3.50, 100000 a year are distributed
among 100000 employees necessary to
equip, operate and manage this great in
dustry, repair its 10000 miles Of track,
handle its 10000 cars, and meet the ever
pressing demands for improvement.
Directly and indirectly over 1,2OO, 600
persons depend upon the traction inter-
ests Of America for their livelihood. An
industry Of such proportions penetrates
and more or less affects all other enter
prises in the country which sustains it.
Nine-tenths Of the business men and
women Of the United States look to the
management OF street railway companies
to furnish them with swift, comfortable
and safe transportation to and from bust
ness. The business Of these companies
has increased 80 per cent since 1894,
when the people could not afford to ride
as much as they do now.

DO YOU WANT IT.?

Remember the panic, the depres-
sion. the idleness and want Of
1896. That was the result Of
a change Of policy in only one great
factor Of our national welfare.
The election Of Bryan would
mean return to all the causes
which led to that panic. 1t would
also add to them two other equally
potent causes for panic-a change
Of currency and a change in our
foreign policy.
Do you want a panic in 1904
far worse than that OF 1896?
DO you want idleness and star
walton and millions subsisting on
charity just as they did in 1893?

DO YOU WANT IT?

In 1892 this country was more
prosperous than ever before. EN-
ployment was more general and
wages higher than they had ever
been.
The people, misled by the asser-
tons Of the Democratic otlice-seek
ers, tried the experiment of chang
ing the policy Of the government
on the tariff question.
What was the result?
On the very day following the
election business began to decline,
dealers Cancelled their contracts
for home manufactures, factories
reduced their working forces and
curtailed their orders for the pro-
duct of the mine, the forest and
he field, and uncertainty took the
.'lace of confidence in the business
world.
What followed?
Every workingman. every en-
ploye and every farmer whose
market was thus curtniled remem-
bers. There was a panic, depres-
sion, gloom, enforced idleness and
want.
All this was the result Of a
change in our tariff policy which
affected the great manufacturing
interests and which threatened la
Dor.
Bryan now threatens to lower
the tariff and take away protection
from labor.
Do you want 1t? If so, vote for
Bryan and you will get it.

DO YOU WANT 1T?

The change Of tariff policy which

But now it is proposed to couple

NEW ARMORY PROJECT
IT IS RAPIDLY ASSUMING A FORM
THAT PROMISES FRU-
ITION
PLANS ARE BEING DRAWN
And 1t LIS Said That the Necessary
Capital Awaits the Sign
ing of Suitable
Lease.

Adjt. Gen. Lambert is fostering a plan
for a new armory for ST. Paul, and plans
are being drawn by Architect H. A.
Kretz The plan is yet In embryo, but is
sufficiently well developed to point very
strongly to its successful completion.
The proposed new building Will occupy
the site of the present structure on Sixth
street that has served the purpose of
an armory building and public hall since
1882, when the guard was yet In its in
fancy, and has since become inadequate
to meet the growing demands of the
guard. The necessity for larger quarters
is very largely emphasized by the acqui-
sition Of an additional regiment to the
guard. The Fourth regiment will doubt
less be transferred from the reserve force
to the regular militia by the next legis-
lature, and there Is scarcely room for COM
pany quarters in the building.
The plan, as roughly outlined, will give
St. Paul an armory building that will
cost in the neighborhood of $4,000, with
very little additional cost to the city
over and above the rent now paid for the
present poorly equipped structure. The
city now pays So, 800 per year in rent in
Guiding janitor's services, and If the city
will bind itself with a fifteen-year con-
tract al investor STANDS ready TO Du1ld
the arnIory and rent 1t to the city for
$4,000 or whereabouts. The last legislature
authorized cities of the first class to
lease arn1ories for a period of fifteen
years, and acting under this law the
transaction Will be entirely legal and
binding on all parties, besides giving the
city a much desired improvement. The
consent Of the city council to such an ar
>rangem ent must first be secured, but
from the conferences that have been held
between the national guard authorities
and the local law making body, 1t is safe
to predict that such a plan would Ie
very readily accepted.
The armory association, composed of
representatives of each Of the st. Paul
companies, owns the armory site, and has
held several interviews with the adjutant
general, and the plans now being drawn
by Architect Kretz will be presented for
their approval az soon as completed. The
new building will be strictly modern In
every respect, embodying the good points
of the Chicago armory and other of the
best militia headquarters in the United
States. 1t Is understood that the asso-
citation has An option on a piece Of the
adjoining property as that may be need
ed to give adequate room for the new
structure.
