a prominent real estate dealer.
Hooking back over the past four
years and trying to imagine what
would have been the conditions Of the
real estate business if Bryan had been
elected, one realizes what an escape we
had, and it does not seem possible that
any sane man would be willing to try
a change of this administration Of

have grown up to the problems that
must be solved, for that Of men untried

'"The men who are willing to- work
are all busy, the factories are running
and requiring more room, our hotels
are crowded with country merchants,
and the rails are hot with traffic.
What our real estate men want to
have is this kind of thing continuing as

There must be no scuttle policy in

Philippines the obligations imposed by
the triumphs of our arms and by the

by the nations sense Of honor, and,
more than all, by the rights, interests
and conditions of the Philippine peo-
pies themselves. No outside interfer-
ence blocks the way to peace and a sta

pone, but they cannot defeat the'real-
ization of the high purpose of this ma
ton to restore order in the islands and
establish a just and generous govern
ment, in which the inhabitants shall
have the largest participation for
which they are capable. The organized
forces which have been 1nisled into
rebellion have been dispersed by our
faithful soldiers and sailors, and the
people of the islands, delivered from
anarchy, pillage and oppression, recog-
nize American sovereignty as the SYM
boil and pledge of peace, justice, law,
religious freedom. education, the Sc
curity of life and property, and the
welfare and prosperity of their several
communities.-Willi Mckinley.

IN such a suggestion of the COMPARE
tive ease with which both free trade
and free silver can be accomplished,
through a Democrat cvictory, Bryan
admits something dangerously sug-
gestive of truth. He practically states
that the Democracy need not fight,
especially just now, for either free
trade or free silver, because, if a VIC
tory be won for "anti-imperialisrn,"
both free trade and free silver would
be easy incidentals to such a victory.
AS matter of fact, if Bryan could be
able, by his election to the presidency,
to accomplish his "anti-imperialism"
plank, by alternating our territory, he
could accomplish, just as easily, both
free trade and free silver If Repub-
lican senate would be a barrier to free
trade and free silver, it would be a bar
rier to his schemes for demonstrations
ally abandoning the territory belong
ing to the United States.
If Bryan tried to get the senate to
ratlfy a treaty with Aguinaldo SUR
rendering American rights and the
rights Of our Filipino allies, and also
new treaty with SPAIN absolving US
from our responsibilities under the old
treaty, it would take a two-thirds vote
of the senate each time. Bryan worked
hard to get the necessary two-thirds
| vote for the treaty with Spain, by
which the United States came into pos
session Of the territory he now wants
given away, and he was successful in
his work. To undo that work he would
! have to strive a great deal harder. To
get free trade bill, or a free silver
bill through, he has, however, only to
get majority of votes in the House of
Representatives and the senate.
If the Democratic party can get the
| control of both branches of congress,
that would enable it to full ycarry out
Bryan's paramount anti-American
policy in the Philippines. 1t would al
so have the power to still more easily
| carry into effect the unparamount free
trade and free silver features Of Bry.
