over a dwarf. An election will neces

functory proceeding, so that fin- Demo

As to the Ileniocratic convention which
takes place on Saturday week the utmost
good feeling will prevail. There will be
some friendly contests, of course, but
the decision of the convention will he

MI DICIM AND CHRISTIAN SCHNCh-
Tin* nineteenth century has witnessed
the creation and development of many
useful things. It is a marvelous period,
and marvelous for more reasons than one.
in the science of medicine, amazing pro
gress lias been made Indeed, it has en
tirely undergone a revolution. Learned
ineii have given up lifetimes in the elu
cidation of some point or to advance it
a step, thus humanity l.„ been perma
nently blessed bv the discovery of the
process of administering an anaesthetic

President su ih Low. of Coluiuhiu i-d
. gr- New ' irl madi Ida debut f* M
aukeo Ropublnans Liel week For
' , pwards of ,*n hour In- I sse! whu* Intel
lectnal strategy he jiossesses. trying to
convince his hearers that Mr. McKin
ley s wicked imjrerialistic p dicy is just \
what tlie American people want. Mr.
Low told the Milwaukee Republicans j
that in IMti Mr Bryan s strongest sup
porters said that Lincoln was an imper- j
ialist. The difference between the
questions at issue now and in iw*4 are
as wide as the jades are asunder, hence
the absurdity of Mr. Low's remark is
apparent. The great question which
had to he settled in the sixties, was the
preservation of the union; the emanci
pation of the negroes and some other
minor problems were also involved.
What Mr. Lincoln and his succes
sors faced affected the people of the
| I'nited States and there was no policy
lat stake which touched jteoples outside
ihe jurisdiction of this government. If
Mr Lincoln was called an imperialist
those who so charged him misnnder-
stood the meaning of the word. But
when President McKinley is referred to
as an ini[s-rialist the use of the term is
justified by his attitude and his policy.
It is well known that the present ad
i ministration would place the Filipinos
! against their delilierate wisjj and will
under the authority of the United States.
And there are Ib.(MIO.IKM) of these people
who have rejs-atedly jietitioned this gov
ernment to withdraw its naval and land
I forces from the Philippine archipelego
and allow the natives to form their own
government. The invariable reply of
Mr. McKinley was to send more soldiers
with instructions to shoot down the
natives of the islands until they were
brought into subjection. Mr. McKin
leys object is to secure sovereignity over
tie- Philippines then raise trade barriers
at all the ports, leaving, however, the
ships and goods of the United States to
enter free, so that the natives would lx
compelled to buy from ns whether it be
their disposition or not.
Mr. Bryan's announced jsilicy is the
verv opposite. He antagonizes the doc
trine of subjugation and would grant
the islanders in the Pacific the same
treatment which will be accorded to the
('nbans in the Antilles.
Mr McKinley is an imperialist, but
Mr. Bryan is like Abraham Lincoln a
believer in the Declaration of Indepen
deuce.

WOHTIh 01 MI \\!C INITIATION
A ghastly commentary on our boasted !
ivilization was the work of a gang of
iiiaraiiders just after the disaster in (oil
vi -ton. No so-iiier had tie tidal wavede
vastated that beautiful i ity than a cal
■ lie and scoiindri-lly crew began systi
umtii and energetic labor to rob the
dead I Holies of tin Mi' - les tln-y possess
- 1 It almost passes imagination to con
ceive ut men so abs. lately abandoned to i
ill m-iis. of principle and pity. There,
add desolation sorrow and inexpress
ible pathos these roimers were active,
taking rings and watches, and what
money they could find from the mangled
tonus of the dead That they w add
enrich themselves by such means is so
Imrrinle th it the mind rebels against be
lieving it yet the fai t stares one in the
face Tin- mind i- able to conjure a
picture of deception rulalify and crime
worthy of s-ita-c i lit citi-m, yet hell
with all Its n-sout -<s tor devilish knav
ery could prompt no more despicable
and loathsome act than was done by
men after the '.talveston tbssl It is re
ported that whenever these marauders

dm Roosevelt's lettei of acceptance
has been written and printed He wish
if I Is- vll’l president Ilf the United
States, an office if tin- trend of public
sentiment can he relied on he will nev
er till lie tells tin- public that to put
into practice the principles emliodied iti
tin-Kansas City platform would mean
grave disaster to tie-nation for ujs
1 In- that platform stands for reaction
and disorder.” Mr Roosevelt is liable'
to say anything, but when a man who
has read the D *n> ■ ratio platform asserts
that it st mds for disorler does so know
ing that what he -ays is false. In the
light of thin „>:it 'UMit the balance of
his letter loses interest, it is the judg
ment of men like Richard < >lney, who
was secretary of state injthe Cleveland
administration, that the Kansas City
platform is worthy to Is* supported by
all loyal Americans. Ad Mr. Olney s
judgment is sounder than is that of the
young governor of New York. There
are a good many Democrats in Manito
woc county who-' patriotism and love
of American institutions is not one whit
less that Mr. Roosevelt s, who will re
sent his assertion when the proper time
comes. He flippantly remarks that the
Democratic policy which would Is* per
sned toward the Filipinos, would imply
the dishonor of the tlag. A Democrat
would not dishonor the flag who would
give to those Asiatic islanders the land
of their birth, endow them v ith the in
alienable rights of freemen, place them
on the road of material development and
invest them with citizenship in their
own country, Mi McKinley desires to j
rale the Filipino- to make them sub
ject to the authority of the United j
States, to exploit their land for trade!
purposes and to deny to them the light!
of self-government. We ask which i
party more justly interprets the prin
ciples as laid down in the Declaration !
of Independence
Sentiment Is cliHiigoig in favor of William i
Jennings Bryan.
00V. ROOSEVELT’S IRI;-
Gov. Roosevelt who would like tube
vice president of the United States lias j
been on a stumping tour through the j
Northwest. Helms not been quite as!
vituperative this time as he was on his |
first trip, but still lie loses none of the
assurance which lias thus far marked
hisiiolitical campaigns At Watertown,
S. D.. the governor-aid the Democrats I
had the effrontery t" say that they rep- !
resent the principles of the founders of
the Republican party. So far as wet
have followed tin* discussion of the que.-- j
tions at issue in the present campaign!
no Democrat makes any such claim, but!
all assert that Democracy as it exists I
today, is in line with tip principles es-1
tablished by the founders of this Repub
lic. The governor goes on to say that
he is amazed and ndigmint at the Deni- i
ocrats for claiming allegiance to early !
Republican polii This is a little !
joke on the part of Gov. Roosevelt.'
The governor eon hin t be indignant if i
he tried. It is onlv his teeth which as
sume a fighting attitude. Mr. Roose-1
velt look- furious but looks are often
deceptive, lint even if he did get in
dignant. his indignation would exbt
without a cause. Let the governor
calm himself Democrats have no desire
to he Republicans.
