Previous to the meeting of the regu-
lar Democratic convention at Reading,
two weeks ago, the Klondike tribe and
their organs, the tecord, the Times,
together with the entire kit of Repub-
lican organs, were busy advising the
Democracy of this state to ignore Bry-
an and the Chicago silver platform
and confine themselves purely to state
issues “for the sake of harmony,” yet
when this gold side show held its own
state convention in Philadelphia, last
week, it didn't take any of its own
medicine at all and ignore National
issues, but passed a gold plank as long
as the Yukon and as dangerous for the
ublic to travel as the Chilkoot pass,
Why didn’t they confine themselves
to "state issues” ?
———————
Bryan is greeted with wonderful
demonstrations wherever he goes, an
eviden.s that the cause of which he is
the great champion, is firmly rooted
in the hearts of millions of American
people, The organs of the trusts and
monopolies endeavor to belittle the
great orator, but an inward fear of the
man and the great hold he has upon
the masses of the people accounts for
their slurs since they can’t meet his
arguments. If Bryan is of no account,
8s his enemies pretend, why are they
watching his every movement? The
{ sneers and slurs can not harm.

DEFICIT-CREATING TARIFF,
i
| The Republican papers during all
| the time of the Wilson law never wea-
{tied in emphasizing every monthly de-
| ficienay under that law and promising
| better things when they succeeded in
| carrying out their tariff’ policy, It is
| true the deficiencfes under the Wilson
| law never equaled the deficit of $70,-
| 000,000 the last year of the MeKinley
|law, and were yearly decreasing in
volume, so that last year they amount-
{ ed to only $18,000,000 but this did not
| content the Republicans. They said:
“Wait until we get the Dingley tariff,
and we will show a clear balance sheet
and a surplus,”
Post,
Well, we have had one full month
under the Dingley tariff, and the treas-
ury report shows a deficiency in the
revenues in meeting expenditures of
$15,000,000, or at the astounding rate
of $180,000.000 a year,
