rHf FUTURE DEMOCRACY.

The following from The pen Of Mr.. Bryan
indicates that he still considers himself the
whole Democratic party:
II have no enemies to punish. No matter
what q man may have done or said against
the ticket Of 1896 or 1900. that man becomes
my friend the moment he receipts Democratic
principles. Neither have I any disposition to
reward political friends at the expense Of our
cause. No matter what a man may have said
or done for the ticket in 1896 or 1900. that
mat. becomes an opponent the moment he
turns against Democratic principles"
In other words. il matters not what political
sin has been committed. IL the sinner will
kneel at the feet Of Mr.. Bryan, ask forgive.
ness and promise him his support in the next
campaign, all past mistakes will be banished
from his memory. But the wrath Of the Pop.
ulis,ic Bryan will fall upon the man who
dares to oppose him. II is necessary to he.
lieve in free silver. anti Imperialism. anti ex.
pans,on, free trade and socialism, or admission
to the councils Of Mr. Bryan's party will he
denied.
Mr.. Bryan evidently does not remember
that his free silver policy was strongly op.
posed at the Kansas City convention, and had
it not been for the Hawaiian delegate il would
not have appeared in the last Democratic
platform.

THE CUBAN QUESTION.

Much is being said by the Democratic press
throughout the country concerning the policy
of the administration toward Cuba. In many
Of the statements no regard is had for truth.
The treaty Disseminated between Cuba. Porto
Rico and other islands in the West Indies
Spain. by the treaty, relinquishes all claims
Of sovereignty aud title to Cuba.
The Isle of Pines was included in the other
islands OF the West Indies. The Isle of Pines
was attached to Cuba by Spain, for admins
trative purposes only, but never was a part Of
Cuba. While the United States has a valid
claim on the Isle of Pines. that TACT is not stat.
ed in the Plat amendments. The provision
on the subject is as follows:
That the Isle OF Pines shall he omitted
