DEMOCRATIC UNTRUTH

Both Parker and Bryan Guilty os lack.
cusable Falsiacation.
It seems that Judge Parker is not
more veracious than d. B. Hin and
other truth-shaders Of the Democrat
party. In his speech Of acceptance on
Aug. 10, Parker made the amazing
statement that the cost Of maintaining
American rule in the Philippines
amounted to $3.50, O0O,0 600. This SOM is
90 far from the true amount that 1t
was expected the Democratic candi-
date would explain his error. but It
does not seem to be his policy to make
corrections. Secretary Of War Taft,
who has had more to do with the gov
esnment Of the Philippines than any
other man, waited nearly two months
for an explanation from Parker, but
none came. Finally, on Oct. 6. Mr..
Taft, In speech at Indianapolis,
showed the utter falsity Of Parker's
statement, pointing out that the sum
named was gross exaggeration. In
stead Of $3.50, OOO. 600, as stated by the
Democratic candidate, the cost Of the
Philippines to the United States has
been only $169, OOO, 600. besides the $2O.-
100000 paid In Spain, making the to-
tai cost $1s9OO0,OOO. Mr.. Taft added
that the cost year for maintaining
courts, and the additional cost Of main
tanning $4,000 troops in the Philippines
instead OF in the United States, all tax
en- together, do not exceed $4,000, 1000
Z year. 4
Three weeks have passed since Sec
rotary Taft publicly called attention to
Parker's misstatement, but Parker has
remained silent, completely ignoring
the correction. Now comes w. ]. Bry-
an, who has been too busy trying to
straddle Parker's gold telegram and 16
to 1 to learn facts about anything, and
repeats the Parker statement. Bryan
10 talking anti-imperialism, and, in try.
ing to strengthen his arguments, is
telling the people that the Philippines
have cost &65O,OOOO O0-the same I'M
truth uttered by Parker. II Parker
made a mistake and was too cowardly
to correct IT, 1t Ill becomes Bryan. who
has nothing to gain by lying, to ape
the New Yorker.
This incident is merely fresh evi-
dence that Democracy IL conducting
q campaign Of misrepresentation and
deceit.
