The Times charges t int our lerenl
cartoon iiVttirinif Itrytui as a fanner
was an Insult to t'' fanner. This Is a
blunt way of luilting It, but maybe the
Times Is liKht.
The Political Outlook.
It Is the rtronrtlienlnR- judgment of
cxpericno il ultrvrvrs In nil ibuil tful
statrs that the urcideiitinl cainlMacy
of William J. Bryan, wlintevor may have
bpen Its (llmeiii h'u.i a fortnight a-'o. liun
already censed to be dant'erous. Tin
battle for Protection and sound niin-y
has not yet been won. TIhto remains
a large ar 'a of ll: piitable territory
which will have to b fmiiTlil over lin.-li
by Inch. Put the signs of a widespread
public reaction from the (lrst sweep of
the free silver movement, with its con
comitant perl!:', of Populism, ntnl class
Jealousy, are multiplying In n manner
not to be mistaken, and from this mo
ment onward until November the
chances of Republican victory will grow
brighter day by day.
Several bappenins' cf the past two
weeks may bo cited in substantiation of
this assertion. In the llrnt place, the
revolt of the sound money Democrats,
Instead of weakening Willi the lapse
of time, has daiiy nsstimcil more om
inous proportions. Over 200 Democratic
newspapers, among the most prominent
in the party, have declined to support
tho Chicago ticket. The list of journals
that have Hopped to Uryan contains not
niore than a dozen entiles, and less
than halt of these are of any particular
prominence. Such pronouncements as
that of Rourlte Oockran show that so
ber second thought Is Impelling the bolt
ing Democrats to solidify the sound
money strength by supporting McKln
ley. At the same time, Republican de
fection Is decreasing. Kouth Dakota
Republicans In Elate convention have
repudiated Senator Pettlgrcw. Scnatnr
Bhoup of Idaho has declared his loyalty
to the party and urged bis friend to
stand by Its national ticket. And, most
Important of all, the state committee of
Colorado have virtually passed a vote
of censure on Senator Teller, whose
powerful colleague, Mr. Wolcott, has
nbly sustained the claims of McKlnley.
These facts show Republicanism's
gains. In the meantime tho enemy Is
nlowljr disintegrating. There Is no long
er any rational hope of a fusion he-
tween tho free silver Democrats and the
Populists. Watson and Bewail both
declare that the other must get off or
take the consequences. In u dozen
Hatci vital to the Pryun campaign rival
tickets are cither In the field already
or in contemplation. To cap all, Bryan
himself has proved a grievous disap
pointment. Ho has exhibited not only
a very noticeable lack of originality and
depth, combined with a deficiency In
that one clement of reserve strength
which Is the greatest single quality of
real statesmen, but also a character for
Indecision and taeillation. .When -tot
Populists Ignored his refusal to be nom
inated on a ticket without Mr. Sewall's
name for. the vice-presidency, he per
mitted the rag tag leadership of that
motley throng; to hoodwink him into
temporizing. Manhood and honor for
the moment were stood aside to make
room for personal ambition, and even
yet the Issue between them Is undecided,
it is incredible that such a man will
be able to go through the critical ex
periences of the next three months
without frequently exposing his weak
ness and thereby alienating: popular
support.
What is true in a national sense as
to the beginning of the ebb of the
live silver and allied fallacies Is also
true In a local sense. The Tribune dur
ing the past few months has kept spec
ially careful watch uf political senti
ment in Lackawanna county. In the
course of its regular business uctivlties,
It has made repeated house-to-house
canvasses of the county, and It Is
pleased to be able lo say that the pros
pect of a large majority for McKlnley
is growing brighter each moment. It
simply Is not. true that the free silver
sentiment Is spreading, it Is steadily
receding, and as the people study the
question fairly It will continue to re
cede anil to got smaller until by Novem
ber there will be nothing left of It worth
omitlng lit the election returns. There
uill be IVmocruts who will vote for
lliyan, but It will be because of Bryan's
Democracy rather than because of hla
silver views. And furthermore there
will be hundreds of Democrats right In
this city. n well as other hundreds in
the county outside, who will not vote
ror Uryan under any circumstances, but
who will vote and quietly work for
McKlnley, Protection and Sound Money.
The outlook Is hopeful already; and
it will be much more so by and by.

Mr. Pryan went up a rocket. Will he
descend a stick?

WILLIAM M'KINLEV.
Tho 2fl.0flO.0O0 Americans who have
savings on deposit In tho banks don't
want and will not vote to have their
ion-cent dollars returned to them In
the form of dollars worth only half
as much.
Exposing Misrepresentations.
The Times persists in convoying the
Impression that Mr. Plnine In fa
vored free coinage. He favored It sim
ply to the honest extent of putting one
dollar's worth of sliver Into each silver
dollar. At that time silver had fallen
only s per cent, below gold in bullion
value. Today It Is M per cent, below
Hold, and one dollar's worth of silver, if
put Into dollar, would make that dol
lar neatly as big as two of our uresent
silver dollars too bulky for anything.
Mr. Illalne, If nlive today, would stand
with McKlnley for the coinage of just
as much silver as could be kept by In
teiconvertibllity at a parity with gold,
and no more.
Another misrepresentation of the
Tlines Is conveyed In the assertion by It
that "after emptying the treasury of
fJOO.OOO.vno rurplus left by Cleveland's
lirst term. Secretary Foster had bonds
prepared for Issuance at the close of
Harrison's administration, and only by
the greatest good luck and assistance
of bankers for political effect, staved
IT the bond issue, compelling Cleveland
lo do what the Republican party had
forced upon him." Tho untruth of tills
tta foment Is fully set forth In a dis
patch from Canton printed on the first
page of this paper. Mr. Foster ex
Plains that he "had at no time even
considered the matter of issuing bonds
to meet (tit rent expenses, having al
ways had enough money on hand." The
real purpose of partially arranging for
an Issue of bonds was to carry out his
idea of Increasing the gold reserve from
$100,000,090 to Sllin.OOO.Ono, a suggestion
of his which was afterward overruled.
The $200,000,000 surplus of Cleveland's
first term was accumulated under a
Protective tariff and while the -country
was on the gold standard. Restore
Protection and there will again be sur
passes instead of deficits.
Our neighbor charges a $70,000,000 de
ficit against the last year's operation of
the McKlnley bill, but neglects to ex
plain, as In fairness It should, that that
deficit was caused because Imports were
kept bac k In expectation of Democratic
free trade. If tho country had not en
couraged the free traders In their war
on Protection there would have been no
deficits, no panic and no mistaken cry
for SO-cent dollars, because there would
liavo been an abundance of good dol
lars, Just as there was before Protec
tion was assailed.
It keeps us busy chasing down our
Democratic contemporary's misrepre
sentations, but In the Interest of jus
tice we Intend to defend the truth.
The "50,000 surviving Union soldiers
of the country who draw peirslons an
entitled to be paid In dollars equal to
the best.
The First National bank of Alliance,
Neb., through its cashier, R. M. Hamp
ton, has notified all its farmer creditors
that owing to the apprehension of
harder times to come in case Bryan is
elected it is compelled to give notice
of its inability to renew outstanding
notes. We will not say that the bank
Is not justified In Its course, for It un
doubtedly is; yet such action as It has
taken is unquestionably imprudent for
the bank. The need of the times is for
a better understanding between bank
ers -and farmers, so that ill-founded
prejudice wilt disappear. The utilisa
tion of the business privileges of a bank
as clubs' for the heating down or up of
poll t leal', candidates or causes Is a
flaky - piece of daring which prudent
'-
bankers are generally quite willing to
leave to the few hotheads in their busi
ness. . . '
"The money of the laitcd Stutsu,
and every kind or form of it, whether
of paper, nilver or gold, must be as
good an the best in the world. It must
not only be current at its lull face
value nt home, but it must be counted
at par iu any and every commercial
renter of the globe. The dollar paid
t'o the farmer, the wagctarner and
the pnnaioner must continue forever
equal in purchasing nnd dcbUpaving
power to the dollar paid to any gov
einnicnt rrcdltor.,'--McIiulcy iu His
Speech of Acceptance.
The Times says it has proved that
free coinage would not mean DO-cent
dollars. Let us ask It a few questions.
Is it true or untrue that, the Mexican
dollar contains more sliver than the
present American gold-backed dollar
yet tho latter will buy two of the form
er? If free American coinage at 16 to
1 will not make 5o-cent dollars, hut in
stead wilt make a.l silver dollars worth
as much as gold dollars, .why cry for it.
since we have the same parity at pres
ent? Lastly. If It Isn't Intended to
make cheap dollars, why not put a
dollar's worth of silver bullion Into the
proposed free coinage, and Viln It on
that basis? If it Is to be a 60-cent dol
lar, how can It be called honest?
Mr. V. J. Hreimnn Informs a Wasn
Ington interviewer that a recent tour
of the anthracite coal fields has con
vinced him that Pennsylvania "Is de
batable ground." No doubt. There al
ways is more or less debating in prog
ress In this slate during campaign
years. Hut it never seems to Interfere
much with the style of voting which Is
In vogue, except to make Pennsylvania
each year more strongly Republican
than ever.
The Idea that any considerable num
ber of thoughtful citizens will absent
themselves from the polls next Novem
ber is not credible. As the issues are
now drawn no man can plead Inuuier
ence without also establishing unfit
ness for citizenship.
Senator Wolcott's designation of the
Populist movement as a. enmedy of the
cap and bells Is satirical yet true. Seri
ous Ftatemanshlp would not court Mr.
liryan s alliance.
It is likely that the 1.600,000 street and
steam railway employes of the United
Stales will, by voting for Bryan and
GO-ccnt dollars, vote to cut their own
wages in two?
How about the 14,000.000 American
holders of life Insurance policies? Do
they want their death claims settled
In half-value dollars?
It Is to some extent Interesting to
know thafMr. Bryan hasn't promised
Altgeld the attorney-generalship; but
it is not Important.
CAMPAIGN GEMS.
From a Speech' by Senator Thurston.
We don't offer to labor cheaper dollars.
The HeDUblican party offers to labor a
Oay's work.
Two yeais ago we said free sliver meant
ii'i-etiu dollars. They didn't know .hen
how to ans-vcr It. They have coneelveJ
n new term, and they sa that gold is the
2uo-cent dollar. Well, then, If It Is, tht
farmers are pretty well paid for wheat. If
It Is an American labor gets almost three
times as much as It did In
Four wars ao they said the Reuubll
cun party wan the pari of the manufac
turer, and tluy said, "it-t us turn the man
ufacturer down." You i'id. Hut when you
pulled the pillars tf .the factory down
didn't they fall on the- head of American
labor?
It Is true that we are In the midst of a
grut time of depre.isijn and Idleness and
stagnation. It is tr-ti '.hat todiv 2."t',M
men In the United StRteg are out of tm
ploymtnt. It Is clso true '.hat every one
of those men, up to the laa- .iour that the
Republican par'y ran this government,
had an open pi ice tor a day's woik.
We are meetlmr a new Issue today, so
far as n presidential canvass Is concenied,
and yet as I look tha forces over. I r,ni
that arrayed ipn.i one side Is the same old
stalwart patriotism. Is the samq old wis
dom of statesmanship, is the kanie security
of accomplished elforrs, which haa itooil
upon the statute-tool:; of the L'.iitfl
States for the lust thirty years.
They say now "we have discovered a
nostrum for the Ills of men." and you
know, my countrymen, that nothing sells
In the United Mates so well as a patent
medicine, or a new kind of chewing gum.
You know that nobody secures an audience
so quickly as Ihe man upon the street
corner, who promlres something for
nothing, and today the whole campaign
for free sliver la waged upon the prom
ises of something better when free silver
comes.
I say to you today. In all sincerity and
candor, believing It to be a legitimate ar
gument and knowing that It Is entirely
appropriate to say, that If I had no other
guide to light me onward i the right
path of my political duty. It sems, to me
that In justice nnd honor to my country It
would lie safer for me to turn away from
the leadership of Tillman and Altgeld and
Walto to follow the liberty of Allison and
Repd, and the greatest among them all,
William McKlnley.
There Is no country on the face of this
parth. I care not where you go, that opens
Its mints to the free coinage of silver, but
what all other kinds of money than silver
nnd promises to pay In silver have tl-: .l
the land. You cannot go into a country cf
this enrth where Its mints are open to
the free coinage of silver and find a gold
dollar circulating among the people. Not
only that, but you cannot go today Into
any country on earth that opens its mints
to the free coinage of silver hut what your
dollar, gold, silver or greenback, will buy
twice ns much ss the best dollar that Is
In the hands of the people of any of these
countries.
The American cltlsen. In traveling out
side of Ms ovn country, finds that Ms
dollar w!th the American eagle on one
side and the Goddess of Liberty on tho
other, or his dollar In paper, representing
the promise of his nation to .oay In the
best dollnr that Is obtainable, will be talci.i
without 1 cent disenrnt In every enultal
city and every commercial house of the
clvi;i.ed rorld. IT It "-ere no more than
a matter of national pride I should prefr
not to Mexicanizn American cltlzenshlo,
for. wherever I go, I pray God I may not
have to go around apologizing for tho
stamp . on the dollar end accepting half
price for !t.
We have coined under the gold stand
ard In this country and nut In- circulation
more silver dollars eighty times more
than we ever coi"',d end put !n circula
tion before 1S73. Today your dollar In sil
ver, coined by th'.s goverrtnent. Is a dol
lar In gold. And why? It Is because you
have svrroended the letrls'atlon that au
thorized It by such rafaguarda that the
man who takes it, the man In the store
and the man on the farm uhrt the man In
the shop, knows when he takes It that
not only today, but tomorrow and next
week eye. and as leng as the Reounllcan
party Uvea the dollar will be Just the
some as It Is today, the best dollar of rho
civilized globe. '
I sat In 'the train the other night, and by
my side was an oldTJerman who told me
of the four years he fought for the Btg,
and how - he now owed another great
duty to his country to maintain the honor
of Its financial Integrity, which meant tha
welfare of every American man and wo
man and child. But while we were talk
ing a face leaned over from the seat be
hind, nr.d the man said: "I'ards, 1 was a
'Johnny.' I was In the rebel army. I
fought against your flag." And I said:
"What are you suing to do about It now?"
He enid: "I have got a chance now to
fight for my country. Gentlemen, don't
talk cheap money to me. I paid $050 for a
pair of boots once."
1 am not here today to attempt to Influ
ence your judgment unfairly by any dis
paragement of men and measures, and yet,
I was brought up as a boy to believe that
the Judgment of the ien who had succeed
ed in life was better to follow than tho
Judgment of the man who has failed. 1
was brought up to believe that the promise
of the man who had always kepi his word
was better than that or the man who had
always broken It. I was brought up to be
lieve that the promise of those men who
I knew had In every great emergency of
the ration stood for its honor and Its
glory and Its dignity waa better for me
to follow than the Judgment of those men
who had never represented any of Ihe
measures of any of the things that had re
sulted for the honor and the glory and
the welfare of the American people.
Today that Mexican brings his silver dol
lar In, he takes It to our mint and he takes
out 50 cents worth of our wheat or of our
manufactured goods. Tomorrow under
free coinage he brings It to the mint.
He cuts oft live and a half grains of It and
puts It in his pocket to make another dol
lar with and without expense. Under
that law Hits government hands him back
his silver dollar, with a law attached
which authorizes him to demand from you
in exchange luo cents worth of the product
of your toll. He brings 60 cents worth tf
silver Into the country, he takes out a
dollar of American labor In exchange. My
couatrymen, there Is no financial leger
demain abo :t this. That man takes out
twice r.s much as he brought Into the
country, and somebody pays him for do
ing U.
Four years ago I heard William J. Bry
an say to a great, audience In my state:
"Give us free trade and the American
workingman's wages will go up," r-'it
they went down. He said: "Give us free
trade and business will boom,", but It bust
ed. The same man today comes before
you with a new .promise. They have dis
carded the Issue of four years ago, and
they say now: "Give us free silver and
the wages of men will Increase; give lis
free silver and new avenues of employ
ment will open up; give us free sllvr and
the business of the country will boom."
My countrymen, as a business proposition
on which depends your welfare and mine.
In view of the value of their predlctlona of
four years ago, don't you think It would
be advisable to ask for a little collateral
security In aid of that promise?
In the city of Chicago the other after
noon a man begged of me a penny to buy
bread. He told me that four years ago he
worked In thojlllnoln Steel works at $3.50
a day. On the same day In the city of l.'ea
Moines, la., a farmer took back a wagon
load of potatoes. He could not find any
body to buy them. What Is the trouble?
Is It free silver? The opening of our mints,
the putting of the credit of this country
in the world's supply of silver, the at
tempt to make something out of nothing,
tho old story of SO cents on the dollar
Is thnt the trouble? Four years ago that
beggar In Chicago was the customer 6f
the potato man in Iowa. Four years ago
he had money In his pocket. He bought
breadstuffs and filled his stomach to its
full. Today he has got nothing Inside but
wrinkles. Kmpty stomachs are not good
markets for American products.
TIMELY BIOGRAPHY.
We have recelved from A. D. Worthing
ton ft Co.. of Hartford, Conn., through
their local representative, a copy of Hen.
rv R Kcssell'a "I.lves of McKlnley and
Robert" a handsomely printed book of MG
pages that presents, in anecdote, plain
narrative and story, the salient features In
the rareers and also the leading personal
traits and characteristics of the Republi
can nominees for president and vice-president.
It fells especially of the humble circum
stances of McKlnley's early days, of his
life as a boy, of his years of unremitting
toil, of his life as a country schoolmaster,
of his splendid war record with its thrill
ing experiences, of his career as a law
student and country attorney, how he
came to enter political life, of his achieve
ments In congress, of the momentous
events that have transpired since, and
the prominent part he took in them; of his
record as governor; of his marriage, his
home life, and so forth. In short, It is
one of the most complete end exhaustive
records of his life and work yet written,
much of It having been penned by his own
hand. He supplied abundant material to
the author, and gave him access to Impor
taut data and fads that have not been
sunrlled to any other writer. The' Illus
trations are mainly from photographs
tupplled by McKlnley himself and by
members of his family.
The pages devoted to Mr. Hobart are
fewer In number than those given over
to Major McKinley, but the treatment ac
corded to the Pp.terson candidate Is sym
pathetic, appreciative and accurate. The
two "Lives" are of timely Interest and de.
serve widespread perusal.
