to reason, and as against Urynn's
rhetoric we ask nim to weigh the fol
lowing statements of fact from the
Chicago Times-Herald:
Under the Wilson tariff law. In the year
1896. we paid" to foreign labor $ll'i,ltl.!i;l

under the McKinley turllt law. That is,

thn Republicans of Jfontana, t'tah and
possibly Colorado had, atter all. come
to their senses and ported company
with the free trade enthusiasts nnd
l'opulistic emotionalists who form the
rank and file of the present rSryan
movement. Such news would be rood
news, not only for the plates them
selves, but also for the whole people,
because it would 2rove mat the sober
thought of the American people could
be depended upon to reach wise con
tend to Increase the demand for American
labor? Of this amount .'2,j0,0U0 were
taken from the men who work in Ameri

one-half of our people aro directly Inter

of these establishments. In the political

that rules of evidence should tend to but

Blarney vs. Fact.
Mr. Bryan's Labor Day speech wan
n adroit appral to class prejudice
which Injected Its poison by cunning
Innuendo. He did not make charges
against employers as a class. He did
not ay In so many words that the
men who hire labor In this country try
also to coerce their employes Into vot
ing; as the employers desire. He did
not specify any particular wherein ths
Interests of labor run counter to tha
Interests ot capital. Nor did he offer
any direct clew to the rectification i of
Misting abuses. He merely Inslnuat1
ed that the worklngman Is gettlhg th
worst of things, and put tha proposi
tion in such a form as best to set oft
hla own claiaia as labor's promissory
committee voted to stand by the St.
Louis ticket and a third time exhibited
In the rlnglnjr affirmation of continued
loyalty put forth only a few weeks ago
by the Republican state committee of
Utah) he begins to perceive that In his"
revolutionary attitude of last winter
lie and his Bllver confederates went too
far. He pircelves that there aro other
doctrines than free coinage in tht? west
ern Republican creed, and he possesses
the political tact to comprehend that
it is high time for him to begin to
hedge.
We welcome this action of Senator
Carter not bo much because of any spe
cial Interest In tho personal attitude of
Carter as because of the cheering lndl
;allon which It affords as to tho trend
)t political sentiment in the west. The
publican party this year will not
need a single electoral vote west of the
