The so-called Democratic newspapers
that refused to support Mr.. Bryan in 1896
and 1900 are now greatly provoked al
Bryan Democrats who refuse to warm up
for Judge Parker and the gold standard
1t is little cheeky for these newspapers
to criticise the Bryanites because they dc
not consent to eat crow and say that is
good.

Thomas Benton said sixty years ago
that no polI ical party in the United States
would ever dare to advocate the surrender
of a single foot of American territory.
Does the party of Judge Parker and
William j. Bryan dare to do this very
thing? Apparently it does. 1t asked the
American people to promise that the flag
raised by Dewey in the Philippines shall
be pulled down; that the progress of the
Filipinos under American rule be stopped
short; that territory which has been
American for five years shall be made
foreign.

THE PHILIPPINES.

| THE PHILIPPINES.
"Our foothold in the Philippines greatly
strengthens our position in the competi-
ton for the trade of the East, but we are
governing the Philippines IN the interest
of the Philippine people themselves. We
have already given them a large share in
their government, and our purpose is TO
increase this share as rapidly as they give
evidence of increasing fitness for the task.
The great majority of the officials of the
island, whether elective or appointive, are
already native Filipinos. We are now
providing for legislative assembly. This
is the first step to be taken in the future,
and il would be eminently unwise to de-
clare what our next step will be until this
first step has been taken and the results
are manifest. To have gone faster than
we have already gone in giving the
islanders a constantly increasing measure
OF self-goyernment would have been disas-
trous. At the present moment to give
political independence to the islands would
result in the immediate loss of civil rights,
personal liberty and public order, as regards
the mass of the Filipinos, for the majority
of the islanders have been given these
great boons by us, and only keep them
because we vlgilantly safeguard and guar
t. ftb Il
ment from the island at this time would
mean to the average native the loss Of bis
barely won civil freedom. We have es-
tablshed In the island a government by
Americans, assisted by Fiipinos. We are
steadily striving to transform this into
self-government by the Filipinos, assisted
by Americans
"The principles which we uphold should
appeal to all our countrymen, in all por-
tions of our country. Above all, they
should give US strength with the men and
women who are the spiritual heirs Of those
who upheld the hands of Abraham Lin
coin; for We are striving to do our work in
the spirit with which Lincoln approached
his. During the seven years that have
just passed there is no duty, domestic or
foreign, which we have shirked; no neces-
sary task which we have not performed |
with reasonable efficiency. We have
never pleaded impotence. We have never
sought refuge in CRITICISM and complaint,
instead of action. We face the future
with our past and our present as guaran-
tors of our promises, and we are content
to stand or to fall by the record which we
have made end are making"

FOREIGN POLICY.
"Our foreign policy has been 80 con-
Quoted that while not one of our just
claims has been sacrificed, our relations
with all foreign nations are now of the
most peaceful kind there is not cloud
on the horizon. The last cause of irrita'
ton between US and any other nation was
removed by the settlement of the Alaskan
boundary.
"In the Caribbean Sea we have made
good our promises of independence to Gu.
ba, and have proved our assertion thai
our mission in the island was one of justice
and not of self-aggrandizement ant
thereby, no less than by our action in
Venezuela and Panama, we have shown
that the Monroe Doctrine is living real
ity, designed for the hurt of no nation
but for the protection of civilization OF
the western continent and for the peace o.
the world. Our steady growth in power
has gone hand in hand with a strengthen
ing disposition to use this power with
strict regard for the rights of others and
for the cause of international justice and
good Will.
1--WE earnestly desire friendship with al
the nations of the new and old worlds
and we endeayor to place our relations
with them upon a basis of reciprocal ad.
vantage, instead of hostility. We hold
that the prosperity of each nation is an
aid and not hindrance to the prosperity
of other nations. We seek international
amity for the same reasons that make us
believe in peace within our own borders
and we seek this peace not because we are
afraid or unready, but because we think
that peace is right, as we'll as adyan-
tageous.
American interests in the Pacific have
rapidly grown. American enterprise has
laid a cable across this, the greatest OF
oceans. We have proved in effectlve
fashion that we wish the Chinese Empire
we'll and desire its integrity and indepen-
dence.

uNYIsE TO CHANGE.

"Assuredly it is unwise to change the
policies which have worked go well and
which are now working so well. Pros.
perity has come at home. The national
honor and. interest have been upheld
abroad. We have placed the finances of
the nation upon sound gold basis. We
have done this with the aid of many who
were formerly our opponents but who
would neither openly support nor silently
acquiesce in the heresy of uusound
finance; and we have done it against the
convinced and violent opposition of the
mass of our present opponents who still
refuse to recant the unsound opinions
which for the moment they think it in
expedient to assert, We know what we
mean when we speak of an honest and
stable currency. We mean the same
thing FROM year to year. We do not have
to avoid a definite and conclusive COM
initial on the most important issue which
has recently been before the people, and
which may at any time in the near future
be before them again. Upon the princis
pies which underlie this Issue the convic-
tons of half Of our number do not clash
with those Of the other half. So long as
the Republican party is in power the gold
standard is settled, not as a matterIof tens
porary political expediency, not because
Of shifting conditions IN the production of
gold in certain mining centers but In

ave recognize the organization of cap
ital and the organization Of labor as the
natural oulcomes of our industrial system.
Each kind of organization is to be favored
80 long as it acts In spirit of justice and
of regard for the rights of others. Each
is to be granted the full protection Of the
law, and each in turn is to be held to
strict obedience to the law, for no man is
above it and no man below it. The hum
blest individual is to have his rights safe
guarded as scrupulousIy as those of the
strongest organization, for each is to re-
ceive justice, no more and no less. The
problems with which We have to deal in
our modern industrial and social life are
manifold, but the spirit in which 1t is
necessary to approach their solution is
simply the spirit Of honesty, of courage
and of common sense.

CATION in the West the administration has

government toward utilizing our vast
