Both tho sons of the Into Sonator
Plumb of Emporia have left tho Republi
can party and are supporting Bryan.
If a freo silver nun mnkes a'loglcal,
convincing spooch on the quBstlon, tho
opposition answer by calling hlni a
moral Idiot.
Tho millionaires who spend tholr time
n Europe beoauso the country fiat made
them rich Is not aood enough for thorn,
aro all gold standard men.
The gold men aro trying to mnko out
that tbo movement to oleot Bryan Is a
seotlonal one. If so, Wall street Is one
seotlan and tho othor section Is tho rest
of tho country.
It Bryan Is eloctod prosldont of the
United Statos, money will not bo so
largely invested In bonds, but will seek
nvestmonts that will give employment to
the laboring man.
Pour yoars ogo tho burden of the Re
publican cry was tho pauper' wiges of
England. 'Hint being a gold standard
country, tha Republicans are dumb as to
English wages this year.
' Senator Thurston, with a gold collar
around his nook representing tho Union
Paolflo railroad, of which ho Is tho paid
attorney, has been busy making speeches
and uttering glanders. Ho is now busy
making oxouSes and opologlos.
It Is altogether proper for Bourka Cook
ran, who has boen hobnobbing In England
to suuh an extont ns to bo serlonsly talked
of for mombcr of parliament, to return
to his adopted land and speak for a slnglo
gold standard. TIs English, you know.
Henri Wattewon Is announced as the
probable choloa of the boltocrat conven
tion from Europe, where ho has been hob
nobbing with tho "nobility," that If no
ono else would Uko tho nomination, ho
w ould. As nobody elfio scorns to want It,
Henri's ohanota are good.
Senator Voorhees Is 0!i years old, and is
very feeble, and although he may live
through tho coming wlntor,lt Is generally
accepted that ho will not again appear In
the senato or on tho stump. It will bo
the first tlino In fifty years that tho volco
of tho sonator hus been silent.
the gold men havo cornered gold nnd
created an enormous doraaud for it nnd
Insist that all their bonds and mortgages
be paid In gold, which shows tho necessity
of romonotlzlng silver. If gold Is hoarded
or exported the domand for sliver would
be so great as to bring that metal on n
parity with gold.
The selection at ox-Qovernor Franols,
of Missouri, for Soorotary of the Interior
In place of Hoke Smith, resigned, will
moko the cabinet solid for the gold Dem
ocratic ticket to bo nominated at Indian
apolis next week, drover Is determined
that no cablnot officials shall support
Bryan whllo be is President.
MoKlnley's letter of oocpotance Is
looked for at any moment What will he
Mjr oouwrnlng the financial questlonf
111 beMte about Mia " beet money In
'tfe world," wittiest deflslsg what the
'best Mjr" i, or will he y what the
eastern bankors want him to say, that tho
only honest money In tho world Is gold?
Lot us bopo that he will make himself
clear upon this point.
WASHINGTON OTjEST.
The doath of Washington Guost re
moves another old land-mark in Stark
county. For nearly sovonty-soven yoars
ho llvoti In ono township, In ono neighbor
hood nnd on ono place. In faot, ho dlod
substantially on tho saruo spot that ho
was born. Ho was an honest, Industrious,
Intelligent and useful man. Industry
was hi 1 guiding star, and tho lino farm
ho ownod Pike in township eloquently
testifies to his thrift nnd economy. Ho
was an oloquont man not in words, but
In deeds. Ho waB of an extremely
oharltablo disposition. No man was over
turned nwny from his door cold or
hungry. He no doubt had his faults, but
whero'ls tho man without thorn? He
lived In Stark county nil his life, and
against his oharaoter for honosty and fair
dealings, susplolon never dared to breathe.
His doath Is on Irreparable loss to his
community.
POLITICS IN MAINE.
Thomas B. Rood, In a spooch beforo tho
Llnooln Club at Portland last weok, re
lteratod that old but not truo maxim,
"As Malno goes, so goos the Union."
Nobody at this election expects Malno
to go Domooratlo in Soptombor. Slnco
1851 It has boen n rollably Republican
state A Domoorat has once In a whllo
slipped Into Congress, nnd twlco Domo
oratlo govornors havo boon olectod by
somo fusion of partios. But It novorSvas
a doubtful stato as Now York, Ohio, In
diana, Illinois and many other statos.
In 1830, at tho Soptombor eloctlon, the
Democrats olectod Harris M. Plalstcd,
govornnr, nnd In Novombor tho Republi
cans carried thd country. Four years
later tho Republicans carried tho state by
nearly 20,000 majority lnSeptember, and
tho Domoorats carrlod tho country In
Novombor. In 1800 tho Republicans
at tholr stato olectlon, carried everything
In sight, nnd two months lator, they wore
literally wlpod off tho face of tho earth
by tho greatest political revolution of
monrn times.
It Is well known that tho Republican
committee havo dumped Into the " Pino
Trco Stato" many thousands of dollars to
corrupt votors. They expect to carry
Malno by a largo majority lnj Septombcr
for tho purpoto of making tha people be
llevo that tho tide 1b veering towards the
Republican party.
ONE WAY
TO CUECK
TORTS.
GOLD EX-
Thero Is only ono way to provent the
continued oxport of gold, and tho ulti
mate, nnd not far distant, suspension of
gold payments, and that Is to check the
dopreoiatlon of the things that go to pay
dobts. Tho spootaolo of tho New York
bankors and others striving to postpone
until after tho olootlon tho export of gold
and defer another bond issuo, Is not a
strango ono. Bont on securing tho elec
tion of Major MoKlnloy, so as to contlnuo
to derive unonrned profits through the
appreciation of gold, whloh adds to the
burden of all debtors and consequently
Increases tho value of tho dobts of all
solvent dobton, It would have boen most
unwlso for them to forco another bond
issue at this time, for n fifth bond issuo
must needs have proved most unpopular
and lost many votes of tbo gold contrive
tlonists. The action of tho Now York
bankers "In coming to the rescue of the
government is due to self-interest, not
patriotism. They havo, In the past,
always ehargod highly for any holp ex
tended to the government. They will
ehargo highly again if thoy havo the
ohance.
DEMOCRATS MUST ORGANIZE.
In some of tho counties of this state
the Domooratlo party is without that olo?o
and compact organization that Is essential
to party succoss at the polls. It is Im
possible to completely martial an army
unlessevery soldier Is known. It Is true
that changes from plutocracy to the ranks
of tiie party of tho poople have been so
rapid and frequent that thero would
necessarily have to be frequent changOB
mado In any poll of the voters, but- It Is
very Important that the secretory of every
county commlttco should be constantly
advised of these changes.
Thero Is no use to dlsguiso tho fact that
the Ropublloan srginlzatlon In this state
is moro completo today than over before,
and It will bo so maintained. The Domo
crats can learn a valuable lesson from tho
enemy in this regard. There is 30 need
for any county oommlttro to wait upon
tho stato commltteo or any other body.
Eaoh county oommlttoe will bo held ro
sponslblo for Its work and for tbo part it
takes In tbo fight, and eaoh committee
should sco that a good report hi made.
Muob of tho work In tho campaign must
bo done by Domoorats who aro willing to
work for the good of tho cause. The
money In this campaign Is on the other
Bide the trusts and corporations have no
use for tho Democracy In this campaign.
But there are enough of tho honest,
oonsolontlous masses who will do the
necessary work. Lot there bo a silver
club organized In every county and town
ship In the'state.
Ono object lesson that tbo people havo
continually before thorn is the Issue of
203 mlllloo. dollars of bonds in the past
three yeam'ln order to maintain a gold
reserve and sustain gold demands. If the
peoplo wast a perpetual public debt and
additional tax hardens, they will vote fer
I
tho single gold standard. If ihoy want tb
benefit the great mass of the peoplo, they
will vote that the basis of our redemption
money should consist of both gold and
silver. If thoy want a slnglo gold standard
thoy will vote for MoKlnloy, If thoy want
n blmotallto standard thoy will voto for
Bryan.
Honry Clows, tho great Wall Ftreoi
banker, Is flooding the country with pam
phlots telling tho peoplo how to vote,
Among other things, ho says:
Tho only reliable following Bryan has
It would appear, oonslstfo of Anarchists',
Soolallsts, Populists, silver mlno owners',
sliver cranks and a few misguided farm
ers who are overburdened with dobt.
How do the friends of troo oolnago llko
that kind of Insults?
Tho Now York World prlntod nn open
letter to Mr. Bryan, asking him to deflno
In his spocoh of aeooptnnco his position on
several planks In tho Chloago platform.
Tho World says that If Mr. Bryan could
oonvlnao the nndooldod Domocrats that
It would bo safo for them to voto tho party
tloket, tho World would comply with Mr.
Bryan's lnltatlon to support him. Tho
World now supports Mr. Bryan. Thoro
must havo boon something convincing
In Bryan's spoooh of aeoeptanco.
Mark Hanna wants tho "business"
mon of Chloago to instruot tholr em
ployes how to vote. Does Mark think tho
employos slaves, that thoy are not to bo
allowed to havo any opinions but those
furnished by tholr employers? Employos
aro paid for tho work thoy do, and not
for what tholr oonsoloncos dtotnto In the
way of opinions, principles, aud wo be
lieve this dictatorial and despotic notion
of Hanna will do moro for tbocause of
sllvor than all tho corruption fund ho oan
gathor In will do for tho rauso of Mc
Ktnley and his gold standard.
Major MoKlnloy may try to lmpross
on tho minds of his hearors that nothing
Is so Important to tho wolfaro of tho
peoplo as Increaso of their tax burden!,
but undor prosont conditions tholr",oom-
mon snnso rovolts nt tho ldoi. Thoy can
not listen patlontly to this high tariff
platitudes whon tholr minds are nbsorbod
with another and widoly different ques
tion, nnd one whloh nlnety-nlno men in
a hundred regard tho vital Issuo of the
campaign.
Tho kloklng "Gold" Domocrats ftavo
oillod a convention to bo bold at Indian
npolls, Indiana, on Wednesday, Septem
ber 2, nt which tlmo they'll wrestle with
building n now platform and tho naming
of n new ticket. We can't soo how suuh
a kicker's comblno oan bo mado to pnn
out all that its most sanguine supporters
look for It. It will bo n gold kick, pure
and simple, and ns such will havo about
as much effect on tho body polltlo as tho
work of a floe ngalnst an elophant. How
ever, this being a frpo country, a man can
do as ho pleases, so longns ho broaks no
law and does not Injure bis neighbor.
The Pittsburg Dispetoh In a special,
says that James L. Evans, of Noblesvllle,
Ind., a former congressman and a life
long Republican, has 00 mo out for freo
silver. Ho has boen ongagod In the grain
business thero for forty yoars. 5IIo has
posted tho following offer In tho oilloe of
his groin elevator: "I will contraot to
buy all the No. 2 whoat you havo raleod
In 1890 at 00 cents per bnshol, providing
Bryan 1b elected and with n freo coinage
oongross, or I will sell you nil tbo No. 2
wheat yon want nt 60 cents per bushel
providing MoKlnley'ls elected."
THE QUESTION IN A NUT-SUELL.
In his Saturday speeob In Dutchess
county, N. Y., Mr. Brvan guvethocs
senco of titer money quostlon In ono short
paragraph. He said: "Increaso tio
amount of money moro rapidly than tho
demand for mone7 lnoroascs, and Jyou
loivur the value of n dollar; decreaso the
quantity of money whllo tho domond for
It Increases and yon lnoreaso tho value
of a dollar. When you understand that,
you understand the iwsenco of the money
question. When you understand that,
you understand what Its effoot Is on yon
and then you oan toll whoro your lnterott
lies. Whon you understand that principle
then you understand why tho groat cru
sado in favor of tho gold standard finds
Its home among tho holders of fixed In
vestments, who, by suob legislation,, rnlso
the value off tho property which they
hold."

Albany, Aug. 20, Tho second day of.
William J. Bryan's trip westward frbm
tho Bcclusion of Red Hook was an
eventful one, crowded with n variety
of incidents of travel, including n
plcturcsquo reception at n summer
hotel, a stirring speech to a crowd of
workingmon at the town of Kingston,
and culminating in a groat meeting nt
Albany, whore tho candidato spoko to
a crowd estimated at from 7,000 to
10,000 peoplo, packed in tho city hall

house
Boforo this demonstration Mr. nnd
Mrs. Bryan sat down to a dinner with
Senator Hill and prominent Albnny
jjumucrais at 1110 sountor's magnificent
homo titled "Wolfert's Roost," whltnor
they woro drivon directly from tho do

had tho meeting in charge For noarly
thrco hours Mr. Bryan was tho guest 01
tho Now York sonator, and, although
ovcry participant in tho dinner uvorred
that It was purely n social nffuir, their
descriptions wero taken with a grain of
salt, it being tho general impression
that nn understanding was reached
which will insure to Mr. Bryah the
support of tho party organi7ation In the
stato.
Mr. Bryan, in his speech in city hall
squaro, Haid that ho endorsed overy
word of tho Chicago platform, but that
he cxpectod tho support of many Dem
ocrats, who aro not willing to endorse
nil that tho platform declares for. Then
ho-said:
Tho Republican platform adopted at St.
Louis declares that tho gold standard
niujt bo maintained in this nation until
other nations shall consent to its abandon
ment. Wo bcllove that this declaration
which commits us to a gold standard
until other nations "como to our relief is
equivalent to a declaration In fnorof a
permanent continuation of tho gold stand
ard, becausa wo do not bclloo that other
nations will take pity upon us beforo wo
tako pity upon our own peoplo. We have
then to consider this question: ought tho
American peoplo to subi..lt longer to a
Sold standard? Cries of "no, no." The
lomocratio party lias begun a war of ex
termination against tho gold standard
Wo ask no quarter, we glv ono quarter
We shall prosccutoourwarfaro until thero
Is not an American citizen Unit dare to
advocate a gold standard policy. Cheers.
You ask why? Wo reply that tho gold
standard is a conspiracy against tha human
race, and that wo would no moro join It
than wo would Join an army marching to
despoil our home nnd destroy our families.
Applause. I ask you not to tako my
word for tho evils of tho gold standard. I
call ns a witness a gentleman whoso volco
has been heard In tho councils of the
Democratic party. I ask you If you are
Inclined to accusous of using extravagant
jangurgOr 1 ask you to ruiu aim renect
upon tho language used by John G. Car
llslo In 1878.
In
a speecu
made In con-
gross ho said
"According to my opinion, tho conspir
acy which seems to have been formed here
and in Europo to destroy by legislation
and otherwise from thnu-socnths to one
half tho metallic motipy of tho world is
tho most gigantic crime of this or any
other ago.. Its consummation would ulti
mately entail moro misery upon tho
human race than all tho wars, pestilences
and famines that ever occurred In the
history of tho world."
That Is tlio language of John G. Car
lisle. I bcllevQ ho bpoko tho truth and if
It was truo then It is truo today and will
bo true, no, mttter who may chango bis
opinion or his course upon tills question.
Truths once uttered will live, no matter
what may becomo of thoso who uttered
thoso truths. Mon cannot retract truths.
That prophecy was spoken 18 years ago,
and 18 years of fulfillment has enabled us
to bclluo words which were believed by
all at tho tlmo they wcro spoken. Our op
ponents tell as that the freo colnngo of
blh or Is going to disturb business. 1 ask.
our opponents to wrlto down tho worst
thing they can possibly think of ns a pos
sible conseciuenco of tho Immediate
restoration 01 thu freo colnago of slher,
and whon thgy havo written their worst,
I would place against tho most dismal
prophecy they can utter tho works of John
u. Carlisle and tell them that I would
llko thu worst thing they could think of
rather than br)njr a misery greater than
war, pot lie nto and famine. Applause.
Can you Imagine tho meaning of those
wordsf No, my friends, tho Imagination
cannot conceive, tho tonguo cannot de
scribe all that is wrappod up In thoso
tvords.
Soinoof our opponents say that thoy are
afraid that no cannot maintain bimetal
lism alone. Wo reply to thorn thut we
havo waited for 2U years for othor nations
to help us, nnd If wo aro going to lestoro
blnutalllsm o hae got to restore it
alone, becauso others do not come to our
assistance. Applause. More than that,
we believe that tho ussortlon of American
Independence will do moro to bring nbout
International bimetallism than a servile
dependence upon our encmios to bring It
to us, 'Applause Our opponents tav
that all wo need Is o restoration of conlf
deuce. My friends, confidence must havo
a basis to rest upon. Our opponents say
that unless wo ehapa our financial policy
to suit the pk isuro of foreign nations thoy
will not loan us nny money. Wo reply
that ns long (.1 we shape our financial pol
icy according to their pleasure wo will al
ways bo borrowers and can never bo
money . lenders ourselves. Canlldcnco
must rest upon a nubntantlnl basis.
Supposo that a man In your community

them aud then somelody tries to collect a
note and finds that the man has no prop
erty behind hW notes, haw can you restoro
confidence In that man, how oan he In
