TIRED OF BRYAN AND FREE SILVER.

Some of the prominent Democrats
of the Convention have been airing
their views, and venting their wisdom,
as to the future course of the Demo-
cratic party, especially as to whether
the party should drop Bryan and
Bryan-ism and free silver. No new
idea has been presented by them.
Those who were opposed to Bryan
and free silver five years ago are still
so, and those who loyalty supported
him are to be found where they were
then, save and except that they may
not deem it wise from party policy to
advocate free silver, not because Bry-
an was not right ON this subject, but
because free silver was advocated as a
means of increasing the volume OF
currency. and not because Bryan nor
any OF his supporters wanted silver
for silver's sake. The Republicans
have done what the Democrats saw
m ust be done, they have increased the
yolume of money by shinplaster issues,
instead of coming silver, and under
this forced issue of money, brought
about by Bryan and his seven million
loyal followers the depression caused
BY a contracted currency has been
eliminated. 1t is not free silver the
ountry should dread, nor Bryan nor
Bryanism. 1t was the gold of Wall street
that spread its corrupting influence
over the land and bribed the election
officers in States enough to steal from
Br van his election after he had honest
ly and fairly won it. He was robbed
by Hanna and Hannaism, and we
blush when We sec Virginians stand
aloof from Bryan and Organism and
hobnob and fraternise with Hanna
and Hannaism. The reason that silver
is not carried on an equal basis with
gold Ii because the banker does not
want 1t 10 carried. He cannot corner
both tho silver and gold market, be
can corner the one. 1t is not because
free silver is faIlacy. When under
Cleveland the Democrats in power
seemed opposed to silver, the Republi
cans espoused 1t, and Mr.. Mckinley
was one Of its strongest advocates
But Wall Street was at work then, it
was at work in 1896, it il at work now,
and many of the men who advocate
the dropping of the issue are corpora
tion lawyers, and interested in National
banks. These men can never divorce
themselves from the Repu blican ideas
of finance, they must condemn Bryan
and free silver, because they are Or
dered to do it by their masters in New
York. The Democrats may write a |
new platform, they may put gold
planks from one end of it to the other, |
they may then nominate the wisest |
man since Solomon, and be will not |
receive by two million votes as many
as VIM. j. Bryan received on either
occasion of bis candidacy, and the can
didate they name on the platform |
they write, will be no more in the way
of Mr.. Hanna and his methods than a |
penny-royal bull in front of an express
train. They will see this after the
election is over, and we hope in order
to prove their wisdom they may make
the experiment.

CARNEGIE WILL BUILD
ALIBRARY FOR MOLINE

Moline has finally caused Andrew
Carnegie to loosen his purse strings
in favor of that city to the extent of
$37, 900 for a public library, as the
following letter to w. A Jones, edi-
tor of the Moline Mail. shows;
Skibo Castle, Ardgay, Scotland,
Aug. 16. 1901.-Dear Sir: Respond
ing to yours of July %. if tie city of
Moline will furnish suitable site and
agree to maintain free public library
at a cost of not less than IS 700 a
year, Mr.. Carnegie will be glad to
provide $37, 900 for the erection of q
free library building. Respectfully
yours, JAMES BER1RAM,
Private Secretary.
1t is likely that the city council will
take up the matter at Its next meet
ing. and in conjunction with the pub
lie library board and the Moline Bust
ness Mems association appoint COM
mittees to make arrangements for So
liciting subscriptions for site.
Moline's gift is quite an achieve
ment on the part of Editor Jones, who
succeeded in winning favorable con-
sideration from Carnegie after the
efforts of the Moline business associa-
tions had failed.
Mr.. Carnegie has certainly done
handsomely by this locality. having
only recently donated the money to
build Davenport's magnificent new
public library.

THROWN FROM TRAIN:
ASKS $4,000 DAMAGES

William Yearick has asked the Scott
county district court to award him
$4,000 damages against the Rock
Island road because a brakeman in
the employ of the road picked him up
and tossed him off the train when it
was running at rate of so miles per
hour. The petition to the court was
filed yesterday by his attorneys, Ely
& Bush.
Yearick claims the occurrence took
place July Is, when he was riding on
the platform of train No. 6. west
bound. Near Walcott, where the Gin
ders are strewn thickly along the
track, the brakeman came along and
disputing his right to be riding on
the platform grappled with him and
threw him from the fving train.
