] DON'T BLAME BRYAN.

The Kansas City Star, in referring to
Mr.. Bryaa's denunciation Of Grover
cleveland. asks why Mr.. Bryan should
charge any member OF the party with
treachery or ingratitude. and replies:
Such aspersions come with a bad grace
from a man who was largely responsible
for committing his party to the absurd
and futile policy Of free silver; who was
solely responsible for the retention of this
S hopeless issue in the platform in 1900;
i who forced himself, as well as his doc
tfine, on his party in that year, when
svo1y leader and nearly all Of the rank
and file knew that defeat, with such a
handicap, was certain.
IN all fairness to Mr.. Bryan, we do
bot see why he should rcproacll himself

urged his party to adopt a free silver

a Few Timely Remarks.

By Guy Seely Of The Pilgrim Red Bud, III.
Another newspaper has turned up its
toes to the daisies In its obituary the
editor says: "The patronage was not
sufficient to meet the expenses and I
consider it good business judgment to
desert a vocation which does not nav its
way Right here is where we wish to
make a few remarks. The paper in
question was started in the face Of the
fact that the town already had two pa
pers. Some Of this yap's good bust
ness judgment" should have been used
before ne started. The country news
paper business has been hurt for many
years by just such mongrel mavericks
as the misft who quits a vocation
which does not pay its way" That the
business sometimes does not pay its way
Is due to Just such cattle as the afore-
said maverick and we will bet a plea
slug against a hair space that he is the
man who whipsawed prices until there
was nothing left but the saw handle,
who don't know a job press from a cider
mill or ink from apple butter, and who
filled his miserable small plea sheet with
'aural clinic" ads and cap Is; who
spoke of himself as a Journalist his
wife as "Our better half and who with
a whelpy whine led people to think that
I country printers were a grOveling, pow
srty stricken set of parasites to a com
munity-and 10 doubt he furnished a
living sample of the breed Out upon
such scalawag who will condemn an
honorable profession just because he
basen't sense enough TO stay out Of a
business he doesn't understand and
cOulden't borrow brains enough to learn.
The publisher Of this paper has a pro-
found respect for his calling and moth
ing but contempt for a miserable idiot
who will prostitute a profession and
/ then condemn it.

simply revolutionary and in OppOsi-
ton to both law aud precedent in our
financial system which has been the
growth Of a century" The gold stand

all our moneys, as these clauses in the
message plainly show OnIy in the
sense Of gold being the STANDARD
Of value" is it established. Such q
measure would be unwise, revolution
airy and ruiuous.
The president quite properly recon-
mends the cOnstrucliO Of the 18th
milan canal and the Pacific cable. The
attorney general reports that a clear
title can be acquired from the Panama
company and without question this is
the most available route. With our
Philippine possessions a Pacific cable
becomes a necessity. A corporation
has already been organized and is pre-
pared to lay the cable and will do so
subject to cOngressiOnalleg legislation.
The president treats of the Philip
pines, the army, the navy, the postal
I department, irrigation in the west, leg
/ isIation for Alaska, the Indian quest
ion, etc. On the Philippine oues-
ton the president saws: Civil
( government has now been introduced.
! Not only does each Filipino enjoy
such rights to life, liberty and the pur-
suit Of happiness as he has never be
fore known during the recorded his
tory Of the islands, but the people tax

Z self government greater than that
! granted TO any other Orientals by any
: foreign power, and greater than that
! enjoyed by any other orientals under
their own governments save the Jap
snese alone"
The message as a whole is a good
I one, excepting the financial recon-
mendatiOn; and that is bad and only
bad. The proposition to redeem OF
exchange gold for 81, O84, 200 600 in pa.

The message of President Roosevelt
to congress is au unusually strong and
remarkably forcible public document
The third paragraph is literary gem
While the president does not recon
mend anything radical be is at least
fearless IN the statement Of fact Here
for instance is SIMPLE sentence:
"Great fortunes have been won by
those who have taken the lead IN this
phenomenal industrial developement,
and most Of these fortunes have been
won by doing evil, but as an incident
to action which has benefited the
community as a whole"
This is a manly, fair and fearless
statement of the trust question. 1t
viii stand the test of time and con
dennis the statement often made that
they are an unqualifedly good thug.
The good accomplished is only Incl
dental and unintended. The presi-
dent recommends the remedy of the
trust evil and In this position taken
by the president he has both the COM
mon sense and the conscience of the
nation with him. The president says,
1--WE should fail in our duty if we did
not try to remedy the evil" The pres
ident holds, very properly that con
gress has abundant grant of power IN
the constitution to deal with and cor
rect by proper enactment the trust
evil.
The president stands, of course, for
protective tariff. In the infant stage
of our Industries there is no questi, u
but that the tariff has been a god
thing but the evil is the continuance
of this protection too long and the
maintaining Of it at too high point.
The president recommends the modifi-
cation Of the tariff to meet new condi-
tions, reciprocity treaties, aud a tariff
commission composed Of experts in tar
if schedules and the commerce and
manufactures of the nation The
president also recommends the crea.
alton of new cabinet Office-the de-
partment Of commerce-and the head
or chief having a seat in the cabinet
This latter recommendation is emf
nently wise and proper.
The presidents message on the
financial question is brief. He says:
at would be both unwise and IN
necessary at this time to make an
attempt to reconstruct our financial
system which has been the growth Of a
century; but soon additional legisla-
ton IS, think, desirable" After this
