THE ELECTION
OF M'KINLEY.
What ItWiIl Mean to the PEG
pie of This Country.

1t will mean that the American peo-
pie sanction syndicated presidency.
That the people approve such legisla-
ton as the Dingley tariff bill. with all
its devices for taxing the great mass
of the people in eXoneration OF accu-
INFLATED wealth.
That the people uphold the policy OF
greed and contempt for alien people.
That the people approve the tactics
and brutal policy in the Philippines.
while Cuba, the cause and inspiration
of the war. is declared alien territory
and entitled To all the rights OF an in
dependent sovereignty.
That the people approve an abdi-
cation of its functions by the ma
IIOnaI Legislature.
That the people approve of a national
executive who fails To uphold the dig
nifty and independence of his great Of
flee and who exercises his functions in
subservience both to other branches of
the government and to the clamor OF
special and pecuniary interests.
1t will menn that the people in
dOrse the policy by which the Unit
ed States sets up I'm business an
ASiatic power and welcomes "A large
standing army and naval force.
1t will mean that the American pSO-
pie either do not see or seeing approve
the great and growing if not an al
ready overwhelming influence OF mon
ey in our politics. our government
was not conceived or framed as Il
making machine. even for the
profit of all the governed. much less for
the profits OF particular classes or por-
