PARTY PROTECTS
THE WoRkINGMEN.

The Republican party, from the
time Of it's birth until now, has pro
tected the laborer who produces for
the American market, in every way
possible for man to onceive Repub-
lican legislation excludes Chinese la
Dor primarily because the Chinaman
refuses to live on the American
standard. The coolie laborer is unpopu-
lar. largely because Of his ineypen-
sive habits. He neither feeds himself.
clothes himself nor houses his fam
lily as do Americans. Living on a low
er plane, ne can, of course, afford to
work cheaper than Americans, and his
presence is menace, not SO much
TO American morals as to American
labor. To the extent that he secures
his prorata share of American wages
and fails TO contribute proportionately
to the constructive capacity OF the
country, his presence is undesirable.

TWELVE YEARS OF BRYANisM,

Since the Democratic convention in
Denver the New York World, Dem
ocrauc paper, has been half-heartedly
supporting Bryan. Before the conven-
ton, however, the World was bitterly
fighting Bryan. The following article,
printed in the world in February of
this year, is worthy of reproduction
as, from a Democratic paper. it shows
the opposition to Democracy's candi-
date from his own party. The World
said:
For nearly twelve years, Mr.. Bryan,
you have been the leader--yes, tie
dictator-of the Democratic party of
the United States. With but one ex-
ception its policies have been your
policies, its principles your principles,
its platforms your platforms.
After twelve years of such DONNA
ton, during which time the party has
gone down to three successive ma
tional defeats, piling disaster upon
disaster and ruin upon ruin, your
friends insist not only that you are
the most available candidate for the
Democratic presidential nomination in
1908, but that you arc the only avail
able candidate, and you yourself have
issued statement expressing your
readiness and willingness to accent
the nomination

THE OKLAHOMA BRAND OF DE
MOCRACY

One of the strong figures at the
Democratic convention in Denver last
summer was Tom Gore the blind sen
ator from Oklahoma. Senator Gore
made speech with cleverly timed
mention of Bryan's name that set the
convention off. yelling and whooping
for the perennial candidate from Ne
braska. This speech made the blind
senator very popular and after that
Senator Gore was called on frequently
for speeches in hotel lobbies After
he had finished the crowd Invariably
called for Gov. Haskell, who was al
ways priIned for a speech. The Okla
homa brand Of Democracy was very
popular during conventions week. But
then came the Hearst disclosures and
Gov. Haskell the Bryan platform
writer and Bryan campaign treasurer.
was shown up to be the enemy of or
ganiZed labor and the friend Of Stand
ard Oil. Haskell promptly backed off
the stage, leaving Senator Gore in
command of the Democratic ship of
state in Oklahoma. Now someone has
been digging up the campaign record
Of the past and il has been learned
that in a speech at Dallas, Texas, in
1896, Tom Gore Of Oklahoma, who
wasn't a senator then, made this at
tack on Democracy:
"The trouble with the Democratic
party is it is a party of statesmen
without craftsmanship, patriots with
out patriotism, heroes without hero
ism. Their policy hegets farmers
without farming laborers without la
Dor. freemen without freedom.
'Thc Fifty-second congress had q
Democratic majority of 14S. and If it
redeemed a single pledge. observed a
single promise, kept n single command
or discharged sinble obligation
made to the people OF The United
States, will quit the stump and re-
tire, from the canvass.
"The Fifty-second congress Tas
elected on retren chment and economy.
The free coinage of silver and the re-
peal of the Mckinley law. In the mat
ter of economy that congress exceed
ed the Republican S1,000,O00,O00 con-
gress by S40,000.000"
OF course. Senator Gore may plead
that a man can change his mind in
twelve years. If Bryan should ask
any questions, the Oklahoman could
point out how the Nebraskan. too, has
changed his mind on several impor-
tant matters since 1896: on free sill
yer. on the government ownership OF
railroads and on other fallacies which
were too radical for conservative Gov.
Haskell. Judge Parker, August Bel
mont. Tom Ryan and Charlie Murphy
to stand for this year Nevertheless
Bryan and Democracy might we'll feel
little distrust in Cores 1908 pledges
of friendship in view of his 1896 rec.
ord on The stump
