reason, in a time of prosperity and
without the excuse of any of the causes

There were so many revivals of the

ory and injurious in practice. While /
cannot see how Mr.. Mckinley could
have avoided the responsibility of polit-
ical sovereignty in the Philippine islands
nor the duty of establishing order and
protecting life and property there, l do
ardently wish that Admiral Dewey had
happened to sink the Spanish navy near
the Golden Gate or at some other point
equally far from the islands, and had
never fired gun nor cast an anchor in
Manila bay. After the naval victory in
that bay, would either have held the
islands by conquest or quietly sailed
away-would never have agreed to pay
the 500, 900 for the islands. But
that is all past Mr.. Bryan urged the
ratification of the treaty. So far, at
least, he is as much of an expansionist
and imperialist as Mr.. Mckinley.
1t is too late to discuss expansion. AS
is often tersely said, 1--WE have ex-
panded" with Bryan's approval and
with his active help, both by his advice
to his political friends and as II colonel
in camp anxious to 60 to the front.
That expansion brought duty, the duty
of establishing and preserving order and
protecting life and property. Thus the
whole cry of imperialism, so far as Mr..
Bryan is concerned, and so far as there
is any difference between him and Mr..
Mckinley on that subject, can only
mean that the present war in the Philip
pine islands might have been avoided by
wiser management. 1 have never been
convinced of that. But concede it,
Then 1 will accept whatever imperial
ism is implied in Mr.. McKinleys con-
duct of the Philippine question, and
continue to live at least in peace and
safety under his high protective tariff
rather than swallow one pellet of Bry-
anism. These are the views of gold

do not think we ought to be diverted
from the matter in hand for one nom.
ent by considerations Of blame for the
past. McKinleys administration may
have been guilty of many errors of
omission or commission. What do they
amount to in consideration of the at
tempt now proposed to debase our cur
rency and degrade our courts. Even
Bryan's successful action in favor of the
ratification of the treaty of Paris would
not be worthy of remembrance had it
not created the present Philippine situa-
tion and caused us to face the music.
Shall we, ignorantly and hastily, trans
fer our power and duty of control of the
islands to the Tagalogs, or to the Taga-
logs and the Moros? Or, shall we wait
and try the experiment Of attempting to
establish a stable government before
giving up hope? And this when aban-
doning the islands means silver money,
and a ruined Judiciary.
Must Not Fly to Evils we Know Not Of
In the choice of evils it is clear to me
that the least of the possible or probable
harmful effects of the presidential cleo
tion will be to accept those of which we
can be the most easily and quickly re-
lieved, those we are already suffering,
and not fly to others likely to continue
as permanent and durable assaults upon
the scheme of government derived from
our fathers, and the happiness of the
people. To lift greenbacks to par re-
quired the labor of more than genera
ton, and for one, honor and respect
the court of which Marshall and Story
and Chase and Field were members too
much to acquiesce patiently in the inno-
vations proposed by Altgeld and to be
completed by Bryan. We can return
to the Tagalogs and the Moros any rights
they have been deprived of as the result
of Dewey's achievements any day with
out delay. The remedy for this evil will
be quick and effectual if once resolved
on. But it ought not to be preceded,
accompanied or followed by the degrada-
tion of the currency or the court.

the first and third, only partially. But,
notwithstanding the Dingley tariff and
the Porto Rico fasco, what better can
be expected of the democratic party
under Bryan's lead? His potent in
fluence plunged our country into the
Philippine scrape, by ratifying the
treaty, when the situation might have
been controlled, and $40, 900 saved,
by leaving Spain and the friars to fight
it out with the Tagalogs. Mr.. Bryan
now proposes a carnival Of anarchy,
with the supreme court degraded, and
the Tagalog tribe in immediate power,
beginning his efforts the day after his
Inauguration.
How do the Catholic voters of our
country relish the banquet to which this
invites them? The seventh article of
the Tagalog programme involves the ex-
pulsion of the friars. Does Mr.. Bryan
realize what this means and that if done
at all it will be done by him and his
his party, although the blame and loss
will rest upon US all? am as earnest
protestant as Bryan or any of his sup
porters, but the spoliation of church or
religious order, or the exile of it's ad
herents without trial, without judicial
sentence, does not seem worthy to be
entered in the roll of beneficial Ameri-
can achievements. Still, if the Catholic
voters can stand it, perhaps, we outsiders
ought not to complain. But if Messrs
"Hole in the sky" Boutwell,, and &C. B."
and General Schurz and their allies can
help Bryan to try the lunatic expert
ments of 16 to in currency, and of de-
grading the supreme court, the loss and
disgrace will not be wholly theirs.
Responsible for the Government of the
Philippines.
This is oar country. We hold if we
do not own the Philippines, and what
ever happens to them and their inhabit-
ants will proceed from us, and ours as a
nation, will be justly charged to the
position of these islands and their peo-
pie. Moreover, Mr.. Bryan has told us
his purposes with relation to the Taga-
logs. What will he do with the Moros,
and their slavery and polygamy? This
nut will be hard enough for Mckinley,
even with the aid of his commissioners,
to crack. Can Bryan do better? Does
his program of letting the Moros "stew
in their own 81 ease," promise better
outcome?
