Gunnery at Manila.

The Spanish war was won by two naval
MISUNDERSTANDING and Santiago. Naturally.
the fame Of the American navy, and es-
pecially OF its gunnery, famed across the
world. As a matter OF fact, the shooting
at Manila and Santiago was about as bad
as possible. At Manila 30 per cent of the
shots missed al a range Of from 5000 to
1900 yards; at Eantiago-the chief battle OF
the war-at least ss per cent. A special
commission Of officers, which was APP
pointed to examine the wrecks OF the Span
ish ships at Santiago. established this fact
officially. It reported that OF $500 projec-
tiles fired, only iS. or i.s per cent, had
found a mark on the Spanish ships Max
ing every possible allowance for hits which
could not readily be seen upon the wrecks
not one shot In fifty struck its mark. The
day OF the battle was clear, the sea smooth,
the targets were twenty feet high and 40
feet long. and the n was $500 yards.

TAFT OR BRTAN-wHroRi

The real question before the Amer
lean voters today lie whether they will
have the Roosevelt policies continued
by Mr.. Taft or set at naught by
Bryan.
The men are equally well known,
the tried and the untried, Mr. Taft
schooled and ripened by large expert
ence, Mr.. Bryan altogether ~inexperi-
enced in administrative duty.
Mr.. Taft has made a brilliant record
for wise, judicial, steady performance
of grave responsibilities. Mr.. Bryan
has made a record Of fertility in coin
ing new parRmounts and proposing
new issues, to be abandoned with the
show Of adverse winds.
Mr.. Taft would enforce the old and
new laws reasonably, with calmness
and sanity. Mr.. Bryan would propose
a volume Of new laws, discounted in
advance as impossible of administra-
ton. His mind is as unsteady as his
principles are unsafe, and the country
has twice rejected him for that rea-
son.
Mr.. Taft would continue all the
Roosevelt policies. Mr.. Bryan would
substitute Bryan policies, experiment
tai and perilous to all business pros
perity.

If Congressman Hitchcock and his
paper are really fighting the Beef
trust, how do they come to be asking
for votes for the stock yards attorney
who is running for state senator on the
democratic ticket when it is notorious
that the stock yards are owned by the
beef packers? If Mr.. Hitchcock were
on the square he would be denouncing
the stock yards lobbyist candidate in
stead of asking votes for him. ~

AS PAINTED BY A FRIEND.


Colonel Henry Watterson, the tai
ented and versatile editor OF the Louis
Vile Courier-Journal, has played a
most active part in the present cam
paign for Mr.. Bryan. He has elected
Bryan by several thousand columns OF
double-leaded editorials and is prepar-
ing to share the fruits of victory.
Colonel Watterson is very we'll &C
quainted with Mr.. Bryan. He has
watched his career since the young
mar entered political life in Nebraska
and has kept close tab on his COM
ings, goings and doings. No n is
better qualified than Colonel Waiter
son to paint the portrait Of the real
Bryan, and Watterson has done 1t.
When the decision of the Connecticut
courts was announced denying Bryan's
right to $4,000 out of the Philo s.
Bennett estate Colonel Watterson
wrote in his paper:
AS a patriot what sacrifices has he made ?
AS a general what victories has he won
He appears in the courts struggling with
a widow for the greater part OF her hus-
bands estate, the will and the attached
documents prepared by himself in his own
house; the ~testator not a relation nor even
a friend.

so RUNS THE WORLD AWAY.
Before and After Taking Paramount
Issues
Brooklyn Eagle dnd. dem.)

Brooklyn Eagle Qnd. dem.)
Twelve years ago Mr.. Bryan had a para
mount issue upon which he said he con-
fidently expected to carry every state In the
Union. He was 95 votes short in the cleo
toral college.
Eight years ago the paramount issue had
changed and he was not so optimistic as
to results-he did not include all the states
in his favorable calculations, but he was
sure Of winning. He was l7 votes short
in the electoral college.
This year Mr.. Bryan is confident OF
an affirmative answer to the question
Shalt the People Ruler" The inference ia
that they will, as 1t were, abdicate, II they
fail to elect him. His confidence in the
outcome will persist until the returns begin
to come in. 1t always does.
After that, explanations. Then will come
the discovery that the winners bought the
election. This will apply to every state
excep. Pennsylvania; It Will account fol-
every reverse where a triumph was pre-.
dicted- so runs the world away.

A nemocratic Rebuke.

Charleston News and Courier (dem.).
In his speech at the democratic MONDAY
meeting in New York yesterday, Hoke
Smith declared that there was nothing
in Tsft's record especially to fit him for
the exalted position" of president. That is
not true; Mr.. Bryan does not believe ny
thing OF the sort; nobody believes it. Mr..
Taft is, in fact, wonderfully well fitted for
the office Of president; the objection to
him is not on the score of fitness or ability,
but on account Of his party and the policies
for which It stands.

SETBACK For NIGHT RIDING.
Prospective Suppression of TenneS-

sees Outlaws.
Philadelphia Press.
The confession Of one of the Tennessee
night riders and the arrest OF some forty
men implicated will greatly discourage
that form OF crime in Tennessee at least.
The militia were impressive as they
patrolled tho vicinity OF Reelfoot lake, but
the offer Of $4,000 for the capture of the
murderers was probably even more effec-
tive in securing results.
The night riders, with their whippings,
burning and killing, leave bitter enemies
behind them. So long as the latter are
thoroughly inundated their enmity to the
nigh riders lie impotent, but visible evil
denoe that the state government is on their
side and the opportunity of winning $4,000
put a different fact on the matter. The
night riders soon find that they have in
their victims vigilant, aggressive enemies
following on their track and ready to de-
liver them into the custody Of the state,
Tennessee's example might well be fol-
lowed by the states similarly afflicted. A
large reward for the apprehension of the
night riders and clear proof that the power
of the state is earnestly enlisted against
them will give the victims of the night
riders heart and courage and make them
bestir themselves against the men who
have harassed them and destroyed their
property.
The hanging Of the Reelfoot lake muir
derers will be- of great assistance in sup
pressing night riding elsewhere. II all
night riders are treated as outlaws and
public enemies with a price upon their
heads and the possibility of. the gallows
and ~penitentiary kept before them. the
business of terroriEing the countryside,
destroying. burning and killing under cover
OF darkness. will lose favor even, with the
Members OF the Society of Equity.

Philadelphia Public Ledger dnd.).
Workingmen reaped the chief benefit OF
Bryan's defeat in 1895. and. under clreum-
stances almost exactly the same, 1t will be
workingmen who will make the gains II he
is again removed from the path Of con-
fidence. The country has ample resources
for a rapid return to prosperity, but there,

safety of contracts. When voting ,fe;r
