eAUsE OF BRYAN,s DEFEAT.

From n. y. journal. bryan organ.
William Mckinley has been reelected
but in n fashion that call hc 10 source
of pride to him nor Of humiliation to the
Democracy. The enormous Democratic
gains throughout the country show that
the party Of Jefferson il fast emerging
from its long eclipse Beyond doubt
Mr. Bryan would have been triumphant
ly elected but for two things.
The FIRST was The intrusion Of the silver
issue. Free silver was drad, and 50 nm
popular that even its corpse was enough
to drag any man down to dcfeat.
The second was the policy Of cutting
loose entiIrly from thu Philippines. That
was not in accord with the spirit Of the
American people
As to the Philippines, the Journal was
the first paper 70 advocate their retention
but ii nevcr believed iii attempting 10
bold their affections with n shotgun. as
Mckinley Is doing That policy Is as
repugnant 70 thr American people as it
is to the journal, but thr people clearly
thought thut rs hetwcen two methods of
dealing with the islands, ntithcr If
which lhry approved, thcy would take
the one tliat could IL amended rather
dlan one that would he rrrYorablc.
The people have evidently made MP
thcir miads 70 dispose Of free silver once
for all. Tho effort was supcr!ors. fur
free silver had ceased to exist aS i pos
siblr policy lGir Years ngo. but The voters
were determined not have the remains

-FOUR YEARS MORE OF MKISLEY

From Philadelphia Inquirer.
The Nations honor is safe. Mckinley
will remain mt the White House for an
ether four years and Bryanism is dead
That is glory enough for one day.
The workingmen who have helped to
bring about the triumph of Republican
principles and policies need not fear the
free soup house.
The farmers who have done their part
In the Mckinley campaign will find Il
market for their produce, for when men
ire at work they have money to spend
and the farmers get their share.
Men with capital will build more mills
and employ more labor. Orders upon
factories that have been contingent upon
the election will now be filled. Pros
perity will continue.
The financial integrity Of the Nation
is no longer in danger. Gold will be paid
cut III interest on the bonds, gold will
remain the standard, the free silver
heresy is thing of the past and bust
ness interests will not he asSailed hy
doubt ANA timidity.
And then there is our standing among
nations. We are M longer afraid TO take
the lead. il lead such as we have taken
in the Chinese incident Indeed, we are
rather expected to point the way and to
play an influential hand iii the affairs
Of the world All this has come about
ander the Mckinley administration. The
American flag is hunored everywhere,
and its standing il secure.
There are many things to he accom-
plished which will be accomplished dur
ing the next four years. We have the
Nicaragua Canal to build and the Phillip
pine question to settle. And then there
is that most important enterprise Of
building up the merchant marine in order
that the scores Of millions of dollars that
are annually paid to foreign steamship
companies for carrying our products
abroad may remain in American hands,
Instead OF the blight OF Bryanism-
broken banks, panic in business and
financial crcleS-wr are to have Prog
ress-Prosperity, Patriotism.
You can fool some of the people all
Of the time and all OF the people some
Of the time. but you cannot fool all Of
the people all Of the time" said Lincoln
4 good many Of the people were fooled
into electing Cleveland President eight
years ago. hut that lesson was Il most
pronounced one. They could not lir
fooled with Bryan in 1896 and they have
refused to be fooled III 1900.
