Bureau of The Tribune.
501 14th stret. New York,
Washington, Aug. 21.
K: yan has certainly passed the zenith
of his popularity. His ppeech In New
York fell flat, not only there, where It
waa delivered, but throughout the en
tire country. It was Intended to electri
fy the country, und Instead it has
measured up the man.
The Democratic managers here, with
keen disappointment, are beginning to
realize this. Hut Faulkner and llc
Millin, who are the big guns at the
congressional layout are of the opinion
that the speech will read well. The
question Is, will It ever be read? The
campaign committee, as yet, have been
unable to gt-t It In piilimphlet form.
They have had no monney to do it
with. The Western min-owners, for
till their talk and writing, have not
given up anything as yet, and the
greatest bitterness Is expressed townid
them by the Democratic managers.
Poor old Senator Stewart, the "wicked
pair of pantaloons of the senate panto
mime," 1ms done all the "putting up"
so far, and now he is balking. He
swore by his white beard that money
would bo forthcoming. Jn order to
make good his oath, and in order to
spare his own pocket book, he is go
ing throifgh the West soon for the pur
pose of taxing each silver mine-owner
his share.
Ituth sides eny this Is a campaign of
education, but so far the Republicans
alone are doing the educating and with
alarming effect. They are spreading
sound money literature over the coun
try while at the same time they are
sending llryan'B free trade speeches In
to the West. There Is no doubt about
the fart that the West is tainted, and
very strongly tainted with the idea of
protection, and while it fears the single
gold standard It likewise doubts the
advisability of free trade as formerly
voiced by Hrynn. These speeches of the
"Boy Orator," which were his crowning
glory In congress are becoming to him
now, In the sent of his own country,
the poisoned chnliee. His tour in "the
Knst has been a failure. Out West,
where vaudeville ntrnctlons are rare, he
met with good houses. He brought his
"standing room only" sign with him
to the East, hut he has no use for it
now. It Is one of the pieces of stage
furniture ho hn disenrded as not be
ing a necessary accessory.
no vavz for freaks.
The east has been glutted with freaks,
and P.ryan's novelty show Is playing
out. It will not run the sixty days which
are usually accorded to the poorest at
tractions. The fact of the matter Is
Bryan's performances are not what
they wpre advertised. Uy successive
playbills the people have been load to
expect something entirely different.
There is nothing so fickle as a thea
trically disponed people. It was this
element that Hocked to hear the presi
dential prodigy nt first. They are now
"on to" the game and don't think Mr.
ri yan wui iii infi price or admission.
The more he speaks now the Hatter he
will fall.
The effect of the disappointment In
his New York speeeh can already be
calculated. As long as he was unheard
and therefore unknown the Tammany
tiger roared with enthusiasm. Now
Tammany Is by no means solid und
united. The political situation In the
great New York organization is very
badly mixed. Instead of Tammany send
ing a united delegation to the state
convention as It has always done, its
delegation to I.luffulo will be split, and
a portion of It will be for sound money
and unalterably opposed to the Chicago
platform. At the congressional conven
tions it has already been decided, not
to attempt to force the nomination of
silver men In sound money districts.
This will necessitate a general change
In the slute. It begins to look as if the
Buffalo convention might accept the
presidential ticket only on the ground
of regularity, but reject the entire Chi
cago platform and realllim the sound
money declaration mad; at Saratoga In
June.
This change of programme has nil
came about since Bryan's trip to New
York. This is what the Democratic
managers here are seeing only too clear,
and it is giving them a powerful heap of
fright.
There is not a better political pulse
r.f this country than Washington, nnd
here the Bryan enthusiasm is decidedly
on the wane. The clerks In the depart
ments who, a fortnight ago, were nil
clamoring like geese and parrots for
Bryan have settled down to dull routine
again with the avowed Intention of
sawing wood in their characteristic
departmental way. These aforesaid
clerks know pretty early In the game
on which side their bread Is buttered,
and they will risk no throws on Bryan.
With them it is their twelve hundred
dollar ofllces first and favorites after
wards. It can be set down these peo
ple see that a reaction is getting in
and setting in strong.
KLECTION BETS ARB SCARCE.
There is much talk about election
betting, but so far the bets have been
few. This Is not due to any lack of
good McKlnley money, but to' the tim
idity which the backers of Bryan are
showing In putting up their money on
him. The odds In favor of McKlnley
still remain at 3 to 1, but Bryan money
is very scarce even at these figures.
The Populist and the Silver party
national executive committees have ar
ranged to open their headquarters in
Wermley's hotel, adolnlng those of the
Democratic congressional committee
and the branch headquarters of the
Democratic national committee. This
will place all the silver headquarters
under one roof, and enable the re
spective managers to work in harmony.
Chairman Lane, of the silver com
mittee, it la understood, will devote
most of his time to raising funds. Sen
ator Faulkner, chairman of the Demo
cratic congressional committee, does
not hesitate to say that the sources of
revenue in past campaigns, principally
In New York city, will not respond to
calls this year, and that the committee
will have to depend on small contribu
tions from the people.
The names mostly spoken of In con
nection with the third party nomina
tion at Indianapolis next month are ex
National Chairman Harrlty for presi
dent, and ex-Governor Iiuckner, of
Kentucky, and National Committee
man Daniel Lawler, of Minnesota, for
vice president. It is argued that Mr.
Harrity would be very strong in the
East and that Buckner would carry
Kentucky and other Southern States,
and that Lawler would run well In the
north wt. W. R. B.
CELTS IN THE REVOLUTION
Some Famous Patriots Who Were of
Scotch-Irish Extraction A Few Re
flections Upon the Campaign.
Editor of The Tribune:
Sir: In The Tribune of the Gth Inst.,
honorable mention was made of the
Scotch-Irish, and a list of illustrious
have been added. In writing this
have becomo added. In writing this
brief article, it la not particularly our
purpose to show that there seems to be
n misunderstanding, with regard to the
clan-appellation, "Scotch-Irish," nnd Its
application exclusive from Irlsh-Sootch.
Writers give prominence to the former,
without any duo consideration to the
latter. It would require a long article
to give conclusive evidence and Indis
putable generic facts, showing that
there Is a difference: and that both
clan appellations. Scotch-Irish and
Irish-Scutch, might be used. And while
we might point out some distinctive
characteristics peculiar to each, we can,
at the some time, see the traits of char
acter common to both, which mark the
Identity of their Celtic origin.
But we need not dwell upon that point
now, for in American politics it should
make no difference, which Is which;
whether or not the national name,
"Scotia" once belonged to Irclnnd, and
Was sbsequently transferred to Scot
land, it matters not; for, "A man is a
man for all that." And whether, a man's
ancestors hnd emigrated from Ireland
to Scotland, or from Scotland to Ire
land, it should not make any difference,
so long as the generations of such an
cestors have given both the old and the
new world great men; and especially to
the United States, where the air of free
dom is adapted and congenial to their
natural energetic and capacities for
great achievements.
POLITICAL REFLECTIONS.
While we are thus eulogizing the
Scotch-Irish or the Irlsh-Vcotch, the
Ancient Hibernian, the Ancient Hilton,
the Teuton, the Hebrew nnd others,
now constituting the united people of
this great republic, might with equal
pride point to the history of their an
cestors. There is one great source of
pride concerning all, and that consists
In knowing that on this side of the
Atlantic they have a great nation, the
government, lnws, Institutions and
great wealth of which are at the dis
posal of all her citizens. With such
conditions before us, the wisdom of the
people should move them In the most
consistent direction, conducive to the
welfare of nil, and having in view the
perpetuation of American institutions,
and protection of home industries. In
the coming national Issue there are
now before the people of the United
States two great "Scotch-Irish" or
Irish-Scotch" Americans seeking the
honors of the presidency, and each de
sirous to assume the responsibility of
the executive duties of the national ad
ministration. McKlnley, the head of
the Republican party, and Bryan,
the choice of the Democratic
National convention. Their an
cestery, respectively. Is not the
question. They are both of good fami
lies and men of sterling worth in their
own capacities. But the choice of ad
ministration, the governmental affairs
of the nation, the money basis nnd pro
tection of American industries are the
chief points for consideration and re
quire Republican success. These points
are the direct concern of the mechanic
and every workman, and the Issue
should bo fully considered by every
citizen, and the monetary question.
which might not be clearly understood
by soino, should be clearly and ably
discussed during the campaign by
campaign orators. We will leave the
discussion of the monetary affairs to
such as clearly understand It; but
every citizen should Inform himself on
this important question. There are no
complex Ideas or Intricacies in connec
tion with the truth of the fact that the
money standard of the United States
must be the recognized and accepted
standard of the commercial world.
FOR CONGRESSMAN.
Next, but not least In Importance,
comes the congress of the United
States. Representation at Washington
Is not an affair of secondary considera
tion. William Conncll is now before the
voters of this congressional district as
the nominee of the Republican party.
And whether he is Scotch-Irish or Irish-
Scotch, It matters not in this district,
where It is known that he Is "A man
for all that." Where all know that he
Is an entcrprisingAmerlcBii citizen, who,
by his asslduou labors.hns elevated and
enriched himself, and thus has helped
others along too. We believe that as a
benefactor, of the people, Mr. Connell
should be honored. But this Is not the
main reason that should induce the vo
ters of this Congressional district to
vote for him. Mr. Connell's eligibility.

PLAIN TALK fO FARMERS.
By SECRETARY OF AGRICULTURE MORTON.
We are told that plutocrats, or money lords, of the country are en
deavoring to crush the "plain people," and that we are debtors ground
under the heel of the eastern creditor. Is It probable that owners of
money are endvavorng to bring about a state of affairs whch shall
ruin those who already owe them money and prevent their ever recov
ering their loons? Having established silver as our measure of value
and medium of exchange, all who buy of us will pay us In silver, all of
whom we buy, will demand of us gold, and we will pay the premium on
that metal.
Today Mexico is on a silver basis. A draft on New York, which is
the equivalent of gold, is worth a premium of S7 per cent. The reason
of this premium is that Mexico must pay the difference between her
dollars, not floated at a parity with gold, and our dollars, which up to
this time have been held at that parity by the pledge of the govern
ment, by the action of the present secretary of the treasury and by the
courage of Grover Clevelund, president of the United States.
Peril of a Silver Basis.
Illustrative of this money fallacy is the position of the man who
works, who sells service, or the results of services. In Mexico the Im
ports are enhanced in value because the Importer pays a sulllcient price
to cover the probable fluctuations of silver In the London market. The
exporter buys as cheaply as possible to meet the same fluctatlons. So
a silver country Is between the upper and the nether millstone. The
Imports are enhanced and Its exports are diminished In value.
A maxim which is almost an axiom in political economy is found
in McLeod nnd reads thus: "The relation of supply to demand is the
sole regulator 'of value." This rule Is Inflexible, Inexorable and always
vigorously operative. It applies to salt, starch, silver, gold, Boap, horses
and oats. In fact. It applies to every salable thing on the face of the civ
ilized globe, and this nceounts for the decline In the commodity of sil
ver. Modern methods of treating ores have Increased the supply of
silver until it Is all out of proportion with the natural demand for sli
ver, and the Bland-Allison act and the Sherman act show that artifical
demand cannot bo created under any circumstances so as to uphold the
ancient price of that metal.
Neither national motalllsnv as It Is termed, by the United States
nor bimetallism agreed on by all the civilized powers of the earth can
fix nnd maintain the price of silver In gold at one ounce of the latter
to sixteen ounces of tfie former, when It Is exchanged everyhere as
bullion at 32 to 1. Will the advocates of the free coinage of silver at
sixteen to one tell us how the silver Btandard can benefit both the pro
ducers and consumers of farm products and simultaneously raise the
value of silver for the mine owner and lower the value of the dollar for
the debtor?
Figures for the Farmers.
The debtor class is not made up of farmers, mechanics and laborers.
Briefly, the condition of the American farmer is shown by the fact that
he owns 4,564,641 farms, valued at more than $13,000,000,000 In aggregate,
and at an average of $2,90'J each. The household of the farmer averages
$C00. The rural population of the United States last year fed the urban
population, furnishing then cereal?, meats, vegetables, fruit3, egsrs, milk,
butter, cheeso and poultry. This urlian'populatlon Is fS per cent, of all
the people of the United States. Thus It Is seen that the 42 per cent,
who live upon farms, after feeding and clothing themselves, fed more
than 40.000,000 of the denizens of villages and cities. They did not furn
ish this food gratuitously, and they will not furnish it at n loss.
During the snme year the United Stntes exported In products and
dnmestlo commodities and merchandise a valuation of $793,000,000. The
value of the agricultural products Included In that sum wai $.'i53,2l5,317.
It Is seen by the above that the American farmer fed himself and
clothed his family, then fed all the villages and population of the union,
and after that sold in the world's markets more than $!00,0"0,000 worth
of surplus food products. How then can the 42 per cent, of the people
of the United States which foods the remaining 08 pi r cent, and then
furnishes more than 6'J per cent, of the total exports of the country be
making less profits than those iwhotn they feed when the latter supply
31 per cent, of American exports?
-
his qualities. Intellectually anil socially,
nnd being endowed with a rare busi
ness capacity and comprehensive know
ledge of public affairs, all go to show
that lie fully merits the honor and dis-
tinctlon of being elected to the National 1
Congress, where he will, with honor to
nimseir ana ror tne goou 01 an, carry
out the wishes of his constituents. In
the National Congress Pennsylvania
ehould be represented by uncompromis
ing Protectionists.
Concerning the Scotch-Irish clnn-ap-pellntlon,
outside of Its application in
conectlon with some organization or
society, we cannot see whore any na
tional Importance could be attached to
It. Retuinlg to the period of the Kevo
lutlonury war, wo llnd the names of men
of Celtic origin, who had taken a prom
inent part In the war. Rut we cannot
miy with any degree of certainty that
they were "Scotch-Irish" or Irish
Scotch particularly, though some writ
ers claim that they were either Irish
or Scotch descent. "We are inclined to
think that they were among those
heroes of the Revolution, Welsh or
Welsh descent. For Instance, the Irish
claim that l'aul Jones was of Irish de
scent and General Morgan also. Rut
the fact should not be overlooked that
the names, Jones, Davis, Morgan, Lewis,
Hopkins, Williams, McWllliams, Phil
lips and Mcl'hillips. common in Ireland,
were of Welsh descent. There is another
concurrent fuct which might be
here mentioned. Mostly nil the
following names, prominent in
the Revolution, were either ac
tive or honorary members of the so
ciety of United Irishmen, which society
had existed In the colonies prior to and
during the war, and of which General
Washington himself was made a mem
ber by adoption. The society existed
under assumed names as "80ns of Lib
erty," "Friendly Sons of St. Patrick,"
ptc. The headqtmrtes of the United
Irishmen society was in Paris. It was
there that the Emmets were made mem
bers. The society was principally com
posed of Protestants, though Its prin
ciples did not exclude Catholics. It was
secret and open to honorable men, Irish
or Irish extraction by either parent,
without regard to creed, and only
compunction of conscience or aversion
to Becrecy, kept a Catholic out of the
society in those years of colonial strug
gles. Writers, who are possibly partial In
their views, or who might not have fully
considered the lines of ancestry 'of
Scotch, Irish and Welsh, who
have figured prominently in the
Revolution, claim those names
were all Itish or Irish-American."
Rut It seems they were of com
mingled Irish, Scotch and v elsh blood.
There Is much In a name. So the reader
may Judge.

the Revolution: Moor General John
