Military Automobiles.

The advantages presented by automo-
biles have great fascination for all Mill
tary men. Large sums have been offered
for the best automobile. In war, as in
everything, it pays to use the best weap-
ons. The best shield with which to pro-
tect the stomach is Hostetter's Stomach
Bitters. 1t cures constipation, Indigestion
and dyspepsia, and prevents malaria.

PRINCIPLES OF THE PARTY.

Declaration of Indepen 1ence Expresses
What Democracy Stands For.
The fundamental principles of the
Democratic party are best expressed in
the Declaration of independence. The
Democracy stands for individual free
dom, for equality of rights and oppor-
tunities, for political, religious and in
been in the direction of popular gov
eminent, although more than once its
machinery has fallen into the hands
of the enemies of the people and has
been devoted to the interests of special
classes. This had happened before the
great re-birth of the party OF Thomas
Jefferson in 1896. That year witness
ed a revolution in the party and the
beginning of a revolution in the coun-
try. The Democracy again took solid
ground upon the great principles of the
Declaration and it has since held that
ground with courage with zeal and
with lofty determination.
The Democratic platform in 1896 de-
clared no new or strange doctrine. 1t
but rested and reaffirmed old truths
for which the party had stood in its
best days and under its greatest lead
ership. The spirit of 1t was long be-
fore voiced in the philosophy of Thorn
as Jefferson and in the heroic policy of
Andrew Jackson. 1t dealt with new
phases of old questions. and in essence
ii marked the revolt Of the tribute-pay-
ers against the tribute-takers.

Two great meetings We're held in this
city last week, and as indications of
the trend of the best public thought
snd of the revolt from the policy and
assumptions of what Mr. olney well
characterized as Mckinleyism. their
significance can hardly be overesti-
mated One Of the big mass meetings
was addressed by Senator Wellington
of Maryland. who vas chiefly instru-.
mental in making that State Republi-
can. and who has publicly charged the
President with having lied to him on
the Philippine question. The other was
held under the auspices Of the Iroquois
Club, one Of the leading Democratic or
ganizations of the country, from a So
cial and financial standpoint. and
which refused TO support Bryan in 1896.
The principal spec kers at this gather

All of them are prominent IN public

egary convictions. bur loving the repub-
lie more than currency schemes they
have taken this stand without qaalifi-
cation or condition for Bryan.

ii. II. Hanna, chairman of the execu-
tive committee of the Indianapolis
Monetary convention, is in distress. He
has been looking over the political stu
alton and sees that the Republican
party is in danger. His chief concern,
however, is the permanence and pro-
motion of the gold standard, and for
success in that direction he declares,
as an honest non-partisan," that the
Congressional outlook is unfavorable
OF late he has been sending out dolefuI
letters urgently appealing for contri-
buttons TO save the standard and the
party. In one of them he says:
There is very great danger of the
Bryanites securing control of the next
Congress. There is every reason to ex-
pect they win gain three Representa-
tives in North Carolina and serious risk
of gaining one in Kentucky, two in In
diana, one in Missouri and one in Tex
as. There is possibility of loss in many
other districts. But few districts are
absolutely safe"
In another one of these privately adj
dressed letters, II. III. Hanna still more
dolefully writes: I'VE have made APP
peals to the general public for funds,
but so far there has been very little re-
sponse." The contracted expenses are
already large. he says, and each dele
gate to the monetary convention is ask
ed to secure subscriptions of $25. Dis
raeli once exposed the political iniqui-
ties of an opponent by quoting from a
letter which he described as plum
dering and laundering one. The de-
scription aptly characteriZes III. III.
Hapna's epistolatory appeals. He is
learning that there is disheartening
apathy in the ranks of Republicans.
Indeed, from the fact that there has
been very little response" to his APP
pealS, there must be something like
positive disaffection if not downright
revolt among those he would victimize.
1t is only a favored few that have
profited by the pieus pretenses, vacilla-
ton and hypocrisy of the President,
and the summing up of his character
and acts is not such as TO inspire en-
thusiaSm.
Besides, il is patent that the plum
dering and laundering" H. II. Hanna
makes the gold standard and his hon
estly non-partiSan" organization the ex-
euse for partisanship which is none the
less bitter because ii is yelled.

Chicago correspondence:
The Republicans are resorting to all
kinds of desperate measures TO turn
the tide that is running so strongly to-
wards William Jennings Bryan and
the Democratic party. The latest at
tempt-and one of Tue most despicable
to stem the tide is direct misuse OF
the mails. The officials of the Demo-
cratic National Committee have re-
ceiyed evidence that Republican post
masters and postal employees are not
only tampering with letters sent from
Democratic headquarters and delaying
the delivery of campaign literature. but
that letters and literature are being
returned almost as soon as delivered
to the postoffice address of the address
ees
Otto Doederlein, in charge of the
German bureau of the rational commit
tee says hundreds of letters have been
returned to his department stamped
Unclaimed" Refused" and Not
Found" All letters sent out from
Democratic National headquarters are
identified as looming from Democratic
headquarters by the following printed
directions on the envelopes: Return
in five days to rooms 21-26, BOG Wabash
avenue, Chicago, H."
Although the postal department
boasts of its ability to trace addresses
from the most meager descriptions,
there is, it is said, disposition on the
part of postmasters IN all parts of the
country, particularly in the doubtful
states, to take advantage of every tech
nical error in the superscription.
So notorious has become the conduct
of Republican postmasters in the treat
ment of Democratic mail matter that
Democratic bureau chiefs have adj
vised doing away with return directions
on envelopes used by the national com
mittee. 1t is generally believed at
Democratic headquarters that hun
dreds of thousands of Democratic docu-
ments have suffered at the hands of Re
publican postmasters.

In 1900 the Democracy stands again
upon the old foundations. 1t is still
the champion Of equal rights. 1t is still
the evangel of liberty. 1t still stands
in solid phalanx against the forces of
privilege. In 1896 the apparent issue
involved the question of coinage; but
the real issue was whether this coun-
try should continue to be governed by
the people or whether it should give up
its old ideals and become the submis-
siye appanage of grasping plutoc-
racy.
The real issue is the same this year
that it was four years ago. New mani
festations have been developed, but it
is still question whether a class for a
class shall control the country or
whether it shall be controlled by the
people for the people. The ancient war
between Hamilton and Jefferson is be-
ing fought again under the opposing
standards of Mckinley and Bryan.
The latter stands as Jefferson stood for
the principles Of the Declaration of In
dependence. The former stands as
Hamilton stood for government of a
class. by a class, for a class.

PATRIOTIC rLoorENoE.

Read this patriotic rebuke> of Sena-
tor Geo. f. Hoar, delivered to the inn
perialists In the United States senate.
Republican senator's like Mark Han
ma, OF Ohio, had been casting slurs
upon the Declaration of Independence,
while the Mckinley administration
was trampllng 1t under foot. On the
12th OF April, 1900, Senator Hoar arose
in his place in. the senate and, after
avowing his lifelong Republlcanism,
said:
81 have spoken of the Declaration Of
Independence as a salemn affirmation
OF public law, but 1t is far more than
that. 1t is solemn pledge Of national
faith and honor. II Is a baptismal
vow. II is the bedrock of our repub-
Eccn institutions, II Is, as the SUI
preme court declared, the soul and
Spirit OF which the constitution is but
the boay aad letter, 1t is the light by
which the constitution must be read.
The statesmen or the party who will
not stand by the Declaration and obey
1t is never to be trusted anywhere to
keep an oath to support the constitu-
tion, To such a statesman, whenever
his ambition ar his passion shall in
cline him, 10 such party. whenever

its faaclod advantage shall tempt 1t,
there will be no constitutional re-
straint. 1t will bend the constitution
to its desire, never its desire to the
constitution Constltutio ad causan n
accommodatur, non causa ad constitu-
tionem.
There Is expansion enough In 1t,
but 1t is the expansion of freedom and
not of despotlsm; OF life, not Of death.
Never was such growth in all human
history as that from the seed Thomas
Jefferson planted The parable OF the
mustard seed, than which, as Edward
Everett said, the burning pen of in
spiration, ranging heaven and earth
for a similitude, can find nothing more
appropriate or expressive to which to
Eken the Kingdom of God" is repeated
again. "Whereunto shall we liken it.
or with what comparison shall we COM
pare it? 1. is like grain Of mustard
seed, which, when it is sown in the
earth, is less than all the seeds that
be in the earth. En-: when it is sown
1t groweth up and b?cometh greater
than all herbs, and shooteth out great
branches, so that the fowls of the air
may lodge under the shadow of it,"
This is the expansion of Thomas JEFF
ferson. 1t has covered the continent.
1t is on both the seas. 1t has saved
South America. 1t is revoiutionizing
Europe. 1t is the expansion of free
dom. II differs from your tingal. pinrh-
heck, pewter expansion as the growth
of healthy youth into strong man
differs from the expansion of an ana
conda when he swallows his victim.
Ours is the expansion of Thomas, JEFF
ferson. Yours is the expansion ot
Aaron Burr. 1t is destined to as short
@ life and to like fate"
