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

CAMERON COUNTY PRESS, THURSDAY, JULY 26, 1900
POINTED COnnENT.
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.
