Yet they are held In bondage by the
leaders OF that party quite as absolute

OF the south under the old slave
regime. They have simply changed
the form OF their bondage. their new
masters. the Republican politicians, as
exacting as their old masters away

The Democratic party. as a party,

The people or Cleveland are 10 at
last have an opportunity To express
themselves on the security franchise
granted to the Cleveland Railway Co.
on the basis OF which the Municipal
Traction Co. now operates the cars OF
that city.
The common council, acting under
the Schmidt law providing for popular
vote on street railway franchises, set
Oct. 22 as the date for the referen'
dunn This is the result OF long agi-
tation in which Mayor Tom i. john
son and the city council, which he
controls. have hitherto blocked all ef
forts TO obtain a vote.
\ month ago, when the subject OF a
referendum was first preached and the
striking street railway employees, who
had been beaten by the Municipal
Traction Co, had obtained enough sig
natures TO petitions TO demand a refer
endum on the question, Mayor John
son declared that ii would not be fair
TO vote on the question until the MUM
cipal Traction Co. had had chance
TO show what ii could do with the
street car system. He minated be-
sides that the Schmidt law might not
be constitutional The car company
had been greatly hampered by the
strike OF Its employees, and the people
were disgruntled because OF the lack
OF service. Later a three-cent fare
was charged. with a penny for trans
fers, and other moves were made that
were unpopular. The mayor wanted
no referendum at that time. Then
two suits were filed attacking the
validity OF the security franchise and
the lease by which the Municipal
company operates the Cleveland Rail
way Co. The mayor pointed TO the
actions as additional reasons why the
referendum should not be held. declar-
ing the council should await the out
| come OF the action before considering
the question OF popular vote.
few days ago James X. Farasey,
president OF the striking Street Rail-
way Employees union. asked the city
solicitor 10 begin a suit attacking the

Co. through corruption and fraud.

Tremendous Growth of Gov

army, as Mr.. Bryan points out Is
more than twice as large as In 1896,

they were eleven years ago, In a
decade the expenses OF the navy have
tripled, and the total annual appro-
priations are sl2, 900, 900 a year greater
than In 1897.
The true principal is that we ought
to provide adequately for defense. but
not for offense
