Candidate Bryan accuses the
Republican party of putting the
dollar before the man. In one
sense Mr.. Bryan is right. The
Republican party, by adhering
consistently to the policy ef giving
Protection to American; Industries
and thus securing plenty of work
at good wages to American work
men, has put the dollar before the
man-right directly before him
where he can get hold of it. The
saving bank records during the
last three years and a half of Pro-
lection prove that thepeople of the
country have not been slow in
gathering together the :, dollars
which have been put before them

In addition to an appropriation
of 100000 t:or the improvement
of roads, the Philippine conmiss-
ion contemplates the expenditure
of the like amount for the improve
ment of the harbor and the docks.
The level-headed portion of the
Filipino population are probably
convinced by this time that the
United States means to. do the
right thing; but nothing can con-
vince the rule-or-ruin croud under

charming little Irish commedienne

fully sustained the good reputation
that preceded her. The play is one o1

appeared here this season. It is up
roariously funny and abounds with
many excellent speciolties.-Indian"

Although the new British tor
pedo-boat destroyer Viper is able
to steam at the rate of BIB knots
an hour, her sister destroyer, the
Cobra, fresh from the builders,
has eclipsed that achievement by
steaming at the rate of 37.7 knots,
or 43 5 statute miles an hour. These
boats are great advertisements OF
the Parsons turbine engine, and
their success may lead some steam

Germany will probably not per.
sist in demanding tho surrende,
for punishment of those who were
guilty of the murder of Baron Won
Ketteler and of fomenting tho up
rising of the Boxers. It ia
proper to demand punishment
at the hands of the Chinese
government, but TO-. call for
the surrender of the guilty
officials to the allies would be
tantamount to declaring the Chin
ESQ governmentimpotent. If the
Chinese government is strong
enough to catch and surrender the
murderers of Won Kettler it is able
to chop off their heads without
assistance from Germany.

The Chicago Journal, which ie
not a Republican paper, and which
has frequently shown an eagernesa
to criticize the Republican ad-
ministration, is disgusted with
Bryan's letter of acceptance, and
remarks:
Mr.. Bryan's letter. emphasizes
the weakness of the Democratic
party in the present battle. The
party has not been content to for
mulate a single issue and devote
all it's energies to pressing that
issue. Instead, it goes before the
country promising, on the one hand
to prevent certain evils that are
not even on the horizon, and to
extirpate other evils that are inter-
woven in our social web and out
side the province of any political
party. The result is that while
the opponents Of the present ad-
ministra,ion are attracted to the
Democratic party; at. one point,
they are repelled at another, and
are left with$the 'ehoieeso Of endur-
ing the evils that they have or fly
ing t.: evils that they know not Of
but strongly suspect.

Undismayed by the utter failure
of his predictions of four years
ago. Mr.. Bryan has again assum-
ed the role of q forecaster of events
and prophet of evil. He says:
To-day we are engaged in a con"
troversy which will determine
we are to have a republic in
which the government derives it's
lust towers from the consent of the
governed, or an empire in which
brute force is the only recognized
source of power. =
His charge is that the Republi-
can party is the party of empire,
and his prediction is that if it
wins, the days of the republic will
be ended, The leaders of the
party to which Mr.. Bryan belongs
made substantially the same pre-
diction in 1864. They said that
if Abraham Lincoln was reelected
we should have an empire. Abra.
ham Lincoln was reelected andwe
didn't have an empire then, and We
will not have an empire now if Nc
fKinley is reelected. Bryan'slat-
est prophecy will fail as signally
as did his prophecy in 1896, anc
as signally as did the Democratic
| prophecies in 1864.
