Crowds Going 10 the Circus

An unusual degree of local interest
has been aroused by the announce
ment that Ringling Bros famous big
circus is to exhibit in Ortonville, Tues
day, July 8. Several big excursions
will go from this vicinity, and local
people will be we'll represented at the
big show. Those who go from here
should make every effort to arrive in
time to see the magnificent new free
street parade, which takes place in
the morning preceding the opening
performance. The procession is d.
vided into thirty enormous sections,
each Of which is a complete. parade,
and presents in it's entirety a bewilder-
ingly magnificent two-mile carnival
of pageantry, such as the world has
never seen. In this gorgeous display
are shown over 100 beautiful dens and
cages of wild animals, 500 horses, 30
elephants and nearly thousand peo-
pie, and the costumes throughout are
of the finest silks, satins, and cloth of
gold. The performance that follows
is the most magnificent arenic display
ever presented by any circus in Amer
lea. 1t is entirely new this year, and
its novelty and magnitude have created
a sensation wherever the show has
exhibited.

The Peerless Bryan

The attraction at the Chautau-
qua last Tuesday was no less a
person than William j. Bryan,
twice the democratic candidate
for the presidency of the United
States. Mr.. Bryan is a rather
unique character, possessing a
pleasing per sonality and wonder
full oratorical ability, he draws
men to him every day in the
year-except election day, when
the voter seems to strive to get
away from him as far as possible.
The only explanation of this fact
is that men personally like Mr.
Bryan but fear his political
philosophy and reject his political
counsel. Mr.. Bryan's subject
was ''The Conquering Nation, :"
his theory being that while we
were a conquering nation we
should conquer by peace only.
And as he touched on the Philip
pine question he said it was
not too late yet 70 right a wrong,
to pull down the flag and give
over the islands to the native
people. The speaker ridiculed
the assertion that there had
been anything providential in the
fact that the islands had been
thrown on the care of America.
Mr.. Bryan may learn later,
should his ideas be ingrafted on
the democratic platform, that the
American people have not
changed from the verdict rend
cred in 1900, that they are over.
whelmingly in favor Of the re-
tention of the Philippine islands.
He asserted that the money
question was not dead, and
though continually being buried
by republicans it continued to
rise up. But republican pros
perity has been too much for
even Mr.. Bryan's peculiar logic,
and he made no strenuous
demand for free silver, passing
his old hobby with the suggestion
that the republicans had taken
his cue. increased the circulation,
and consequently had given the
country prosperity. From Mr..
Bryan's address 10 may be in
ferred that if he has the making
of the issues in the next cam
paign, these will be imperialism,
tariff and trusts. However. from
the character of many of the
democratic conventions so far
held it looks as if Mr.. Bryan will
not be controlling factor in the
next democratic convention.
Mr.. Bryan may have been a
poor votegetter in presidential
elections, but he is certainly an
attraction on chautauqua plat
form, for he drew the largest |
that has been seen at
Simpson park this season.

Sen. Nelson on the PHILIPPINES

SSH' NClsOll OH tIC t'HII1pplnCS
Senator Nelson S speech before
the Minnesota Republican con-
vention is an able presentation of
political issues, which every
voter should read and ponder.
On the Philippine question he
says:
The problem was even more
pressing and unavoidable in the
case of thePhilippine islands than
Porto Rico. Spanish rule in the
former had been even more bru-
tai and cruel than in Cuba, more
brutal and cruel because the peo-
pie were not of the same race,
were only in part civilized, com
posed of several races and many
tribes-from the savage Moros
and imbecile and dwartish Negri-
tos to the Tagals and cunning
Chinese Mestizos-a very babel
OF humanity, lacking all cohesion,
all the elements of nationality
and all experience in self govern
ment or, indeed, any government
at all, save the despotism of
Spain.
TO abandon these untutored
and Heterogeneous masses to
further rule of Spanish brutality
seemed cruel and shocking to our
sense of right and Justice. TO
abandon them absolutely in their
then condition and helplessness,
to themselves seemed even more
reckless and unjust, both to them
and to US, for it would have led
them lrresistably into dire con-
fusion, chaos and self destruc-
ton, and ultimately and swiftly
to their seizure and exploitation
by one or more of the great
powers of Europe. Strong fleets
OF foreign powers were there
ready to move in the moment we
moved out.
A great nation can no more af.
ford to evade or shirk a great
moral responsibility than an IN
dlvidual. And the conscience of
republic, such as ours, is but
the counterpart of the conscience
OF the people, incarnate and un-
furnished. There was but one
honorable, manly and just course,
under the stress of the facts, to
take. And that was to accept a
cession Of the islands, pacify
them, civilize them and establish
law and order and a good gov
for them. President
Mckinley was at first loath to in
,ist on a cession. But when the
great moral problem, in all it's
ength and breadth, dawned upon
him and he fully comprehended
t, the path of justice aud duty
seemed plain to him. He was no
moral coward, no evader of re-
sponsibility, and he represented
/ people who never falter, never
shirk and never trim.
We owed it to ourselves, to the
people of the Philippine islands
md to the entire civilized world
10 do just what we did do. To
10 otherwise would have rem
lered our nation moral imbecile
among the enlighted nations of
5he world
What the American people
nave, in behalf of humanity and
Justice, by their valor, their
treasure and their blood acquired
and held, they will never permit
to be wrecked, scuttled and
abandoned.
The task which under a high
sense Of justice and duty they
assumed in 1898, they will faith
fully carry out for the good of the
people of the Philippine islands,
for the good of our entire country
and for the good Of helpless and
downtrodden humanity the world
over.
