SPEAKING FOR M'KINLEY.
Bishop Fowler Engaged by the Ma
tional Republican Headquarters.

Reading, Pa, Oct. 29.-Bishop Fowler
today acknowledged that the charge
made by DIR. Silas 9. Swallow that he
is stumping for Mckinley is true, and he
seems to be pleased with the results of
his exertions in behalf of the Presiden-
tial candidate.
The Bishop lectured here tonight in the
auditorium of the Memorial Methodist
Church on Lincoln, and took occasion to
say few good words for President Nc
Kinley, which was heartily applauded.
Before he began his lecture he was asked
to make reply to the statement of DIR.
Swallow. Il have no reply to make to
the charges" he said. He and every
one else will judge me just the same as
If Swallow had not said it, whether l

-FOUR YEARS AGO"
From Baltimore News.

From Baltimore News.
Under the above head the Chicago
Times-Herald of yesterday places con-
spicuously on its editorial page the fol-
lowing simple statement:
October 25, 1896, Senator James *.
Jones said:
1t is the deliberate opinion of the head
of one of the greatest retail firms in the
world that the election of Mr.. Mckinley
and the establishment of the single gold
standard inevitably means national bank
ruptcy and the foreclosure by England
and European creditors Of our great in
dustries as well as the lasting ruin of our
agricultural classes. The American
workman who votes for William Nc
Kinley votes for a permanent reduction
| in wages. The American business man
or manufacturer who votes at the dicta-
tion of the New York-London gold com
bine votes for national bankruptcy and
financial dishonor.'
"And on the same day Garret A. Ho-
bart said:
Il believe that the various divisions of
our vast industrial army, which the ad-
vocates of reputation have wickedly
sought to set at enmity with one an
other, are about to be heard in stern re-
huke of the gospel of hatred | believe
that the honor and good sense of the
people are about to speak the decisive
word which yindicates these qualities
before the world, and that then one and
all will address themselves once more
with hope and energy to the work of re-
storing and increasing the prosperity of
our land
These two questions one from a free
silver leader, the other from the sound
money candidate for the vice presidency
four years ago. are set down by our Chi
cago contemporary without comment.
They speak for themselves. 1t is not
merely the Justification of the prophecy
of the disciple of Bryan and the vertical
tion of the forecast of his opponent that
are significant; many wise man has
judged the future wrongly, and many a
fool has happened to make a good guess
But no man Of sense can read these two
utterances today without seeing and feel
ing that the talk of Jones was wild and
foolish and wicked vaporing, based on
nothing at all, while the talk of Hobart
was that of sound, sober, conservative
patriotic and intelligent American cti
zen.

HALLOWEEN TONIGHT.
How Children Manage to Have Fun
in its Observance.

Children approve entirely and enthui-
astically of Halloween and have their
own ways of celebrating the occasion.
a nere is, of course, more fun than SUPER
stition about their pet practice. The
abracadabra verses, handed down from
generation to generation, are almost
without number.
One of the oldest is the "Shooting
Star" familiar to the children of the
South and Southeast:
If l shooting star can see,
And before it falls count lone, two,
three"
I'll find my love in the nearest tree,
For l hunt him and he hunts me.
In the darkness of the night, as every
child who has grown up in the country
knows, it is a spooky thing to feel your
way around the barn. But plenty of lit
tie girls will make the trip this year, as
in the years of the past, on Halloween.
With almost every step they will repeat,
with bated breath:
Three times around the barn we go,
In order our true love to know;
Unless old maids wer're going to be
Some bright young chap we'll surely
see.
Perhaps the Oldest and most nearly
universal plan is simply to gaze for n
long time in mirror.
On Hallowe'etn night you must look
in the glass,
If you look long enough your true love
will pass.
The truth of this verse has never been
m INF Init
maiden has kept her eyes fixed on the
mirror till she has gone off into dream
land and Prince Charming has appeared
as he never could appear in real life.
In parts of the country where the sun
flower is still blooming late in October
the petals of a sunflower are pulled off
one by one, while the watcher says
slowly:
Suntlower, suniiower, tell to me
Who my true love is to be.
Is he rich, poor, tall or fat?
Sunilowpr. suniuwer, tell me that!
OF course there is 10 prophecy in this
case. unless the pulling off of the last
petal fails ON the word rich" or poor"
or tall" 0r fat" but the eXpenmenter
is ut liberty to destroy as many sunaow-
ers as she pleases.
Watching at window for the first
boy who passes is common enough, too.
Sometimes this does not require any
abracadabra, but it is often assisted by
the following verse:
He whom first through glass l spy
Is the one for whom ! sigh.
| Wanting him | am forlorn,
Be he prince or peasant born!
Faith in these things is a lot easier in
the happy years while the mystery of
love and the mystery of life are still
matters of guesswork. Fun is eaecr got
ten out of them, too. Even fatality it.

FAvORs M'KINLEY.
DIR. John W. Trader, of Missouri,
Tells why He Opposes BRYAN.

Chicago, Oct. 3O.-Dr. John w. Trader,
who is one of the most influential men
in the Democratic party in central west
ern Missouri, has left the Democracy
and his letter has attracted much at
tention in that stronghold of the party.
His reasons for his actions are:
''Since 1866 l have acted more in con-
cert with the Democratic party, believ-
ing it to offer better solution of pend
ing difficulties and arrangements which
existed among us as a sequel of our re-
cent strife.
I'm the present crisis | cannot see the
necessity of changing our policy as to do
nestle and international affairs, and
revolutionizing what has been done in
the past two or three years.
''As for the cry of Imperialism L look
upon it as folly, and recall that the same
hue and cry was raised against Washing
ton. Jefferson, Madison, Lincoln. McClel-
Ian and Grant; none of those men We're
able to subyert our form of government
from republic to an empire. Before an
empire could be established upon this
republic 70,000000 of freemen must be
consulted, and the power of all the
world combined cannot cause the Ameri-
can citizen to give up his institutions and
sovereignty, let alone the power Of one
man.
"There is truth in the old maxim,
don't swap horses while crossing a
stream | believe that our laws are
judiciously and honestly administered by
the present Administration, and l will
without stultifying any true principle of
Democracy, support the present Admin-
istration in the affairs of my country"

THE VERDICT OF THE PEOPLE.

From Daily Republican.
All the signs point to the election Of
Mckinley and Roosevelt The election
this year of William Jennings Bryan
would be public calamity to this coun-
try. His Populistic ideas alone are
enough to drive hundreds yea, thousands,
of men from supporting him, who own
their own homes. Such doctrines as he
is preaching to the people are calcu-
lated to do inestimable harm and make
men dissatisfied with their lot. Put fifty
men from the humble walks of life with
Mr.. Bryan and what chance would they
have with him in earning living. that
would enable them to ride in Pullman
cars and dine off the best in the land.
He has been making his living by work
ing his jaw, and we must confess he
has been Il success in that line. Like
the prisoner in the dock, he mi ght fool
the jury once, but he could not do it
all the time. And the yolube VIM. Jen-
nings Bryan is the prisoner whose case is
now in the hands of the Jury, who are
the American people, and the verdict will
he so pronounced on November 9th, that
he will fully understand it. He may be
sincere in his views, but so are the
fanatics who have been killing off the
missionaries and Christian converts in
China. But if we mistake not the peo-
pie, he will not be elected to the White
House this year or any otheryear. That
although he has succeeded in whipping
the majority of the Democratic party
into line, there are thousands of Demo
Gratis who will not vote for him this
year. His cry of Imperialism is to catch
the votes of the foreigners, but we dc
not think he will get all their votes
The Germans and Irish do their own
thinking and vote as they think. They
have the good of this country at heart
and want a continuance of the present
prosperous times with a chance to carr
living. Dull times means locking NJ
capital and idle workshops, and mel
seeking jobs instead of employers seek
ing help.

BRYAN is DANGEROUS.
I'M Afiddletown Transcript.

From Middletown Transcript.
Those who remember the terrible days
and years of the civil war and the raw
ings and rantings of those who were too
cowardly to go into the Southern army
and fight like men, but remained at
home and damned Lincoln and his hire
lings in blue" whom they said would
set up an empire, and thus end every
semblance of the liberty for which our
fathers had fought, bled and died; and
then, how, after the war was ended,
and the honor of the flag maintained,
the million or more of fighting men in
the field, each took his way to the plow,
the counting room, the law office, the
machine shop, or whatever his vocation
may have formerly been, will not be
much alarmed as to Bryan's predictions
concerning the little band of brave men
who are now fighting in the far off Is
lands Of the Sea to maintain the honor
of their country and the flag, and but
for the traitors at home, would have
long since ended the war, and now be
at rest in the pursuits of peace. And
every one of them who has been killed
during the past six months, met his
fate by reason of the fact that such
OplfOTtuHlSlS anu DtLudSbSutS as
Bryan and Pattison are willing to use
any means to secure place to be worn
as button-hole bouquet.
Here is an extract from speech
made by Bryan in New York few
days ago:
I'VE will soon find the army here de-
manding the punishment of an innocent
man as the army in France demanded
the punishment Of Dreyfuss, man so
innocent that the President felt that he
must pardon him as soon as he was
convicted, because of the outraged sense
of justice expressed throughout the
world"
Here is another of like quality, made
in another one of his New York speeches
Forts are being built near every large
city to use the army to suppress by force
the discomfort of labor"
No true American, with any respect
for himself, or any sense of honor for
his people, could listen to such drvel,
without feeling his face tingle with the
blush of shame, remembering that
the man is. now put forth as Il possi-
bility for President of this, the greatest
nation on earth.
Some people are content with saying
that Bryan is honest but dangerous.
Any man who gives utterances to such
speech is a fool. But Bryan is no fool.
He is a cunning Krave. When he said
those things he knew that he was ly-
ing, and there is not one intelligent
man who does not know that it is naught
but ''clap-trap," with which it is sought
to deceive the ignorant ana unthinking.
1t is an insult to every decent Democrat
in America.
