BLUM, Esq., Secretary, EDITORIAL nENTION. Tlie McKinley Platform. It is now complete and clear, thanks to him rather than to the writers at Philadelphia. I. No free coinage of silver at sixteen to <»n<*. No debasement of the currency or repudiation of the nation's promise to its creditors. No relaxation of vigilance in de fence of the gold standard. 11. \o return to a tariff which brings to the government defici ences in its revenue and to the people the distraction of their prosperity. 111. No policy of scuttle in the Philippines. No evasion of the duties which are ours in that quar ter of the globe. No retreat of the Hag that means civilization, justice and liberty for all whom it covers. IV. No wavering, no turning aside, no retreat, in the fulfilment of our national or international ob ligations in China or elsewhere. No surrender of the prestige this republic, has won during the past three years in the eyes of the world. V. The Republican party can be trusted by the American people. Thus is the issue defined with perfect clearness now. All of the .several propositions of dishonor or surrender or shame to which the Bryanite platform and program say Yes, Mr. McKinley rejects with an emphatic No. Let the American people, con fronted the second time with Bry anism, see to it that the Noes have it again—N. Y. Sun. Hon. .h Sterling Morton, Cleve land's Secretary of Agriculture, who is one of the most robustly Democrats of all the Demo crats of the country, says Bryan will be beaten worse in 1900 than he was in IS9O, and that he de serves to be beaten worse. This looks like a prophecy. Hon. Lewis Emery, Jr.. lias been nominated for Congress by the dis gruntled Republicans and Demo crats and now the question arises, will he accept? He has remained in California until all of these moves on the political chess-board have been made, probably to dis cover how they would be received by the people. If they fall flat with the Republicans of the dis trict he may not accept, unless the efforts of the Philadelphia news papers to boom his candidacy en •courage him to enter the race Outside the city of Bradford tin Republican sentiment favoring liii candidacy is exceeding thin. Th< Republicans of the 27th distric are protectionist -t, through an< through, and they have no use.fcv ■ a man who goes battle on that pi in c jj,l e —McKean Miner. Why Sibley is a Republican. "These men tell you that you must not embarrass the administra tion by voting for me? If I have conceived properly the character of the distinguished man who occu pies the White J Louse, no honest man in the house of representa tives will embarrass him, no true American would embarrass him.'' -:*• * * "If 1 am elected to represent your interests in public life, I will never ask. when a meas ure comes before the House, il it has a Democrat back of it. If that measure makes for the moral, social, and intellectual uplift'of our 1 common humanity, I will never ask if it is a Republican, Frohibi bition or Populist measure. \\ ill i this, enacted into law. better the ! condition of those who. in the ; various kinds of industry, must : win their way in the world. Will i this open wider markets for agri culture? Will this afford wider opportunities for transportation and commerce? Will it icive to some man, who is now denied the fiodgiving boon of earning his bread in the sweat of liis brow, a wider opportunity? And if it does, I do not care what party brings in that measure, I will give it the best support that it lies in my pcwer to H'ive. If you have business in the departments at Washington, and send it to me, J will never ask you the question whether you are a Republican or a Prohibitionist, Democrat or Populist. I your business is such that a repre sentative can honorably an l prop erly transact it for any man I will do it with my might and will, and all my strength, and I wort even ask if you voted for me." Speech at Warren, Pa., Opera House, in November, 189S, and in every other speech made in the district. When Mr. Sibley announced himself as a Republican he landed just where he belonged. As a builder, instead of a wrecker, he was sadly out of place on the Dem ocratic side of Congress. As one in favor of the onward march to the position of the greatest of all nat,io»« »>y tlic V n 1 ted Stajcs, Mi. Sibley found himself in v<ry poor company. When Lewis Pinery, of Bradford, upon the tinder to him of a nomination for Congress [on the Democratic ticket, told liis hearers that he was in accil'd with ! most of the principles as munciat | ed by the Populist leadir \\\ .J. j liryan, lie also put himstf where !he has belonged. For nuuy years Mr. Emery has been doin "spoil ed child" stunt within th Repub lican party. He has i variably been after some ollice ad if he couldn't get it, by ream of the other fellow having the lost votes then he would "sulk" aid help elect the Democrat. Tin broader questions of party suprenvcy never appealed to Mr. Emerj it was always a case of "Give mmy own way or 1 won't play." 1(5 rarely ever got his own way for the reason that his seliishiies disgust ed every Republican v >rhy of the name, and as a result In has ever | used his time and in (ley to create discord within the fary ranks. He is now where he aiwm belong ■ Cl i—in the party of (Stnctionists ■ and wreckers, and wh tlose who , I are anti-everything 'hir-k makes for the progress the Peat. 11 ess and ' i the prosperity of o* country at ' ! home and the hoir of the flag 4! abroad.—Franklin l*s. United States Diiiet Attorney .James M. Heck, oi'hiladelphia, last Wednesday vested his cilice and last Saturday led for Ku rope. 1» answer questions re lative to his positi in the com ing campaign Mr. Ik replied: I have not left the liocratic party for there is none to.ve. It died a natural death in Chid in 1896, slain by a Populist orator >m Nebraska, aided by an Altgeld a» Croker, and while tlie Populist w to-day uses the name "Democrat®; has nothing I in common with the liocratic party of Jefferson, Jackiond Cleveland. | t am no longer a Jemtf; lam a Re publican.

Imperialism refuses to be para mounted. + +• + + Any man who would pick a woman's pocket must be on the very outskirts of civilization. + -f "First class in politics, stand up. How do you pronounce BR-Y-A-N- I-S-M?"' "Calamity, please, sir." + + Even Mr. Atkinson has protested against the silver plank of the Knnsas City platform. Col. Bryan must feel lonely indeed, as his allies desert him : one by one. Only Aguinaldo seems ] now to be left. The next time the Western powers hold a peace conference, they will be careful that the invitation to China is not mislaid. + + The treatment of the unfortunate foreigners by the Chinese is bad enough, but we should remember that it has not been so verv long since free born Americans burned people at the stake. Secretary Root had a new bath tub j sent to hisofliee at the War department the other day and when it arrived, a ! rumor spread thatGen'l Miles had been i ordered to China and was preparing j his kit. + + It's a queer thing that some people should insist that "imperialism" is the issue this year, although the Democrats declare against it, and the Republicans do not declare for it, and, to cap the ; climax it doesn't exist at all. The difference between the Chinese j of to-day and a few years ago, when Japan walked all over them, is easily I explained. It was the Chinese gov ernment that fought then; it is the Chinese people who are fighting now. + -f •112 + Secretary Gage thinks that Col. Bry ! an would observe the provisions of the gold law, if he were elected, but he is also sure that the mere news of his election would create a panic that would be most disasterous to the coun try. + + Everybody knows what Bryan stands for; everybody knows that ho will bring about silver monometalism if he can, and will scuttle out of all our new possessions, leaving them to sink or swim as best they may. How then can anyone who opposed him four years ago, support him to-day. + + Sultan probably thinks that the riot in his dotniiiitma, which cost no American lives and only destroyed SIOO,OOO worth of property, was such | a little affair in comparison with the | Chinese atrocities, that it might well be passed over with merely a verbal j rebuke—which he would cheerfully undergo. + + The crux of the campaign this fall will be the attitude of the German voter, who can elect either candidate by throwing his vote to him. A careful study of the attitude of the Germans and of the German press, seems to show conclusively that they will stand pretty solidly by their old republican allegi ance and against free silver. There will be no extra session of Congress. There is no need of one, at present. The United States is not technically at war with China and probably will not be, so that there is no necessity for a formal declaration. Consequently, as long as the President has troops and money enough to meet the needs of the situation, there is no necessity of calling Congress to supply him with more. t + This is a bad time for withdrawing troops from the Philippines. The reb els have at last realized that Uncle Sam is a bull dog fighter and will hold on until he wins, and they are getting ready to try amnesty and peace. It would be a thousand pities to encour age them now in the belief that he is obliged to withdraw his soldiers for use elsewhere. A few influential but unpatriotic Democrats are willing to disregard the claims of American labor and advocate j at Kansas City the free American reg- ! istry of foreign built ships, instead of the building of American ships. It is believed, however, that the proposition this year is doomed to the same detieat it suffered four years ago at Chicago, where the committee on platform and resolutions tabled it. It is quite natural that the powers should cry aloud for vengeance but it cannot be had. In time, of course, the allies can force their way to Pekin and can burn some palaces and cutoff some heads. But they will not be the houses nor the heads of those responsible for ! the murder of the ministers. China is a big place in which to hunt down a given man and the chances are that Tuan and his aiders and abettors will all escape. THE PRESS IS THE 15 EST MEDI I'M FOR ADVERTISERS IN THIS SECT ION.
