To the Editor cf the Indianapolis Journal: Political developmerts have been made within the last thirty days that cannot halp remindlntr the older men of the conriitlnn rt ftff.nirs In th earlv sixties. There Is no longer nny Issue on tho money question; you hardly ever hear silver mentioned, and the cry of Imperialism, militarism and the trusts as Issues is no longer heard except as vehicles to carry the real Issue Bryanism. Nothing like It was ever before In American politics. No other candidate has ever before scoured the country preaching1 only the doctrine of hate. Mr. Bryan has not made a speech In a month whose essence was not anarchism. When called back to tho silver question as It was four years ago, and as the Kansas City platform evidently Intends It should be this year, he talks all 3 11 4 I A Ä Ä ... 1 t purpose to array class against class. The violent outbreak at Victor a month ago ras only a beginning of Bryan demon titrations. Hardly a day has passsed since that something of the same kind has not occurred, and thousands who had intended to vote for Mr. McKinley have within the last ten days realized that Mr. English is right in saying the only real Issue is Bryanism, meaning, among other things, anarchy. This aprlies especially to a class of men with Republican convictions on national Issues who were offended at Mr. McKinley's attitude on the canteen matter. Whether right or wrong, they regarded the silver and all other Issues secondary to this, but now that the real core of Bryanism 15 more manifest by his speeches and the rowdyism of his friends towards Mr. Roosevelt, they are resolving to rebuke the spirit of Democracy as represented by Mr. Bryan by more than a half vote. The situation will remind older people ef tho attitude of Rev. Williamson Terrlll, one of the ablest Methodist preachers of the middle years of the century, who was one of the wisest councillors of his period. He was an Intense Prohibitionist, but, unlike the young men who think they now have the exclusive charge of Prohibltlonlsm, he was a temperance man before he became a Prohibitionist, and he worked at it After the annulment of the prohibitory law of he was among the most conspicuous to apply his temperance sentiment to politics by refusing to vote for intemperate men. No such thing as a Prohibition party had then been proposed, and his plan, adopted generally by temperance men, was working well when tho war broke out. and as a rule the more ober of each party were elected. On the breaking out of the war only one question came tr the front, and men's habits and views on temperance were lost sight of if candidates wero only good Union men. It so happened that on the State ticket, in ISC. and on many of the county ticket?. In order to encourage a class of Iren who were zealous Unionists but not exemplary as temporar.ee men, some were nominated whoe temperance records were not spotless. No mn in Indiana did more tc reconcile the temperance voters of the Etate to the situation than Mr. Terrlll, as he traveled at lnrge in the capacity of Bible- agent. He would say: "I am a temperance man and a Prohibitionist, but I am an American, and the immediate question before us Is a united or divided Nation. Temperance and Prohibition can bide their time; we must save the Union; this Is no time for such Issues Copperheadisrn was too strong In Indiana to save the State Republican ticket, but the wisdom of his policy developed two years later. As I see It. thq election of 1500 involves a greater lsue than that of ISO). The threats of that campaign came from ona locality, with only here and there sympathizers in the North. If KryinUm ripens into anarchy it will find a hold In every town and hamleL It is well, therefore, that a3 many good men have taken the alarm and have determined to rebuke It. It seems to me that if Mr. Bryan's ipeechmaklng could continue a fortnight longer his open avowal of pur;ose to pit class against class would cure uvery man nho has thought to take a day off and toy with a side issue.

THE RELIEF DEPARTMENT

ONE YEAR'S OPERATION OF THE PEN N S V L VAN IAS ORGANI Z ATI ON. Improvements Made the Fast Season by the t'nlon Railway CompanyGeneral Hallway News. The annual report of the voluntary relief department of the Pennsylvania lines west of nttsburg ha3 been recelvsd. It shows a balance on hand June SO, 1S00, J3t.K6.9S; balance June 20, 1300, $34.874.47; net contributions received from members during the year, rm.142.S2; contributions by the company, $1G,SS2.S2; death benefits paid on accidents, KVXO; on deaths from natural causes, $59,7t disbursements on accident benefits. 550.622; sickness benefits. J1C4.243.C0; company relief paid, J12.733.80, making the total disbursements for the year J347.1S3.C3. There was an increase in net receipts from all sources, as compared from receipts the previous year of J28.642.42, an increase in payment on account of death benefits cf J3!,S0.1.f3, and In the payment on account of disablement benefits of J43.009.6S, a total increase- in payments on both accounts ever the preceding year of J78.503.01. The membership at the close of the year was 1S.S3L an increase of 1.S33 during the year. St. John May Go to the Grand Trunk. Sir Charles Rivers Wilson, president of the Grand Trunk Railroad, of Canada, and other officials of that line, have not yet recovered 'from their surprise at the resignation of Charles M. Hays, general manager of tho Grand Trunk, and his acceptance of the position of president of the Southern Pacific Railroad. Sir Charles said at London last evening that three days of London holiday since the announcement of Mr. Hays's resignation had nor, iiven the directors a chance to consider the future. "So far," he added, "no definite action has been taken." It is reported that there is a strong current of popularity running in favor of vice president SL John, of the Seaboard Air-line for the vacant position. The movement is believed to have originated among the Canadian stockholders. J. 31. Schryrer Dead. J. M. Schryver, general passenger agent of the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad, died yesterday of apoplexy. He left his desk in the Central building at Baltimore Saturday afternoon in his usual good health and spirits and was taken suddenly ill late Sunday night, the attack coming on while he was at home with his wife and three children. Mr. Schryver was about fifty years of age and had long been connected with the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad. Personal, Local and General Notes. President Norton, of the Clover Iaf, has placed his order with the Baldwins for ten new engines to be delivered before March 1. John Rech, assistant city ticket agent of the Pennsylvania lines, who has been 11! for three weeks, yesterday reported for duty. The Chicago & Eastern Illinois in the third week of October earned $133,300. against, 123,600 in the corresponding week of 1809. The Chicago, Indianapolis & Louisville earned in the third week of October JS3.143, against JS2,7C9 in the corresponding week last year. The Indiana, Illinois & Iowa has under contemplation opening a new winter steamship line between SL Joseph, Mich., and Milwaukee, The Big Four will have a freight representative at' Dallas, Tex., and C. II. Mullen will go there, his title being general Southwestern agenL William Garstang, superintendent of motive power of the Big Four lines, expects to receive six of the new ten-wheel passenger engines within the next ten days. On Nov. 1 J. II. Bennett, of Salt Lake City, will become a general freight and passenger agent of the Nevada, California & Oregon with headquarters at Reno, Nev. The Wabash September statement shows gross earnings of $1,615,569, against J1.497.841 in September, 1S23; net earnings this year, $533,631, against J 168,812 in September, 1S99. Col. Wrllllam Shaw, district passenger agent of the Chicago, Burlington & Quincy, and Harry Bowser, representing the passenger department of the Missouri, Kansas &. Texas, are in the city. t . The Missouri, Kansas & Texas Is handling the largest traffic in its history, and Its facilities are being taxed to the limit. Ihe movement of cotton and live stock 13 heavy beyond precedent. Since Oct. 1 the Union Pacific has sold 26,000 acres of land to different parties which will be fenod in for grazing purposes. Thi3 line of traffic on the Union Pacific is developing rapidly. CommiEsIoncr J. F. Goddard, of the Trunk-line Association, says that effective steps have been taken in the last few days to stop the cutting of freight rates in Western railroad territory, especially Kansas. At Jackson, Miss., yesterday Judge Niles, of the Federal Court, granted an injunction preventing the Mississippi Railway Commission from enjoining the joint rate clause on the new rate tariff on cotton fceed on the Illinois Central. An official of the Northern Pacific says that no matter what other roads do they have no idea of withdrawing homeseekers rates. The company has thousands of acres of land for sale, and every emigrant means business for the road. The management of the Nickel-plate- expecting a heavy fall and winter business, even greater than in any previous year, is preparing to handle it. Last week eight firemen were promoted to engineers and new men or extra men appointed firemen. Tho Brotherhood of Locomotive Engineers, through somo of its Western lodges, has petitioned several of the railroad companies for an advance in the pay cf engineers who run the monster freight locomotives hauling sixty to seventy cars. The Cleveland, Loralne & Wheeling, the Wheeling & Lake Erie, the Cleveland t Pittsburg and the Wheeling Terminal are to economize by appointing a joint freight agent at Wheeling to handle all business, the four lines to enter Wheeling over one terminal. The people of Swathmore, Pa., have decided to erect a suitable monument to the memory of Benjamin West, the celebrated painter, who was torn in that town 1(3 years ago, and the Pennsylvania company has consented to build the foundation for the memorial. News of the resignation of Charles M. Hays from the Grank Trunk to accept the presidency of the Southern Pacific is followed by a sharp decline in Grand Trunk stock on the London Stock Exchange. No more convincing tribute to Mr. Hays could be paid. There has be?o much discussion of late among men who handle mail at railway stations about the growing frequency of overloading of sacks. The maximum weight of mall for each sack Is 150 pounds, but this has been violated so many times during the past month that general complaint has arisen. John J. Degan, who, twenty-eight years ago, at the age of twelve, entered the shops of the Pittsburg. Fort Wayne ,fc Chicago at Fort Wayne as hammer boy, has been appointed superintendent of th Pennsylvania Company's blacksmith shop at .Wellsville, O., having under him sixty or more men. To-day John W. Gates will formally enter into control of the Kansas City Southern, formerly the Kansas City. Pittsburg & Gulf. It is said to be the intention of the new owners to buy back the Kansas City. Omaha & Eastern, now in the hands of a receiver, and reunite it with the Southern. The Santa Fe renders another excellent report on the result of its operations during September: Gross earnings. Increase $405,719 over September last year; net earnings, increase, $214,512. For three month i of the current fiscal year the road shows a gros increase of $1,475,534. and an increase in net earnings of JS61.52S. Georg? Graves, superintendent of the Indiana, JJecatur & Western and the Ohio River roads, last evening returned from a trip over the I., D. & W. proper. He is elated over the excellent condition of the track, it being the best in the road's history. The distributing of 2,544 carloads of gravel ballast wa3 completed last Saturday. There Is official authority for .stating that neither the Huntington nor Speyer interests have disposed of any part of their holdings of the Southern Pacific and

with Mr. Hays as president a considerable development of the property, with prospects of material increase in transportation, of the company, will be the programme. J. D. Layng. vice president of the Big Four lines, and C. E. Schaff, general manager, yesterday Inspected the Louisville division and terminals at Louisville. They were accompanied by Secretary Cox. of the Big Four, and General Secretary Rositer, of the Vandertilt lines, who is making the trip more for the health and rest than for inspection purposes. Eighty surveyors arc busy locating lines to connect the Wheeling & Lake Erie, the Wabash, the Toledo. St. Louis & Western and the Buffalo. Rochester & Pittsburg lines into one system. The line as projected. It is stated, will be 276 miles, Pittsburg to Toledo, and it is claimed that a line could be formed but 478 miles from Pittsburg to Detroit, via Toledo. Thus far the project L all on paper. The lines of the Central Passenger Association Lave adopted the rate of the Western Passenger Association in regard to home-sef kers and settlers rates, after having for three years been directing their efforts to purging the territory of that business altogether. This will be the last day this month, but on Tuesday of November, February, March and April the homeseekers' rates and the one-way. settlers rates will be adopted. In the United States Circuit Court of SL Louis Judge Amos Thayer yesterday denied the application of the Guaranty Trust Company of New York, and Julius Walsh for the appointment of a sep-' arate receiver of the Omaha, & St. Louis Railroad Company. In denying the application Judge Thayer stated that to appoint one would seriously Interfere with the harmonious operation of the road, inasmuch as it is directly allied with the Kansas City & Northern Company and the Omaha, Kansas City A Eastern. The Judge further stated that the services of Receiver James Hopkins will be dispensed with after Nov. 1. The general roadmaster of one of the Indianapolis lines last week took to task one of his section foremen for not putting his section in better physical condition, and the foreman answered it yesterday in the following; manner: "I am doing all the work I can with my present force in lining up my track and preparing for winter. When I secure a new man to work on my cection some farmer will come along and take him away, offering him better wages. I think we had better vote for Bryan; then we could get all the men we want. If McKinley is elected, as matters are now drifting, we won't be able to get a man to work on a section for love or money." Frank Harriott, the joint grain agent, representing all the railroads that carry from Buffalo to New York, announced on Saturday that no more contracts for the shipment of grain between the present time and Nov. 1 would be made, owlns to lack of grain cars,, and In this connection he also announces that on and after Nov. 1 the rate on grain from Buffalo to New York will be advanced 1 cent a bushel. Formerly rates on grain shipped from Buffalo to New York were liable to radical cuts and the rate situation was often badly demoralized, but since tho appointment, six months ago. of Mr. Harriott the situation has been brought under rigorous control. The improvements the Union Railway Company has made to the Union tracks. Station, Belt road. and new engines since March 1 have cost $103.620. This Includes the new double track bridge over White liver, two new engines for the Belt road, doubling the Belt toad from the Peoria & Eastern east to the Bee line tracks at Brightwcod, and doubling the track from the Belt road to a connection with the Lake Erie & Western. The company has also reconstructed the electric plant and heating plant of the Union Station to comply with the requirements of insurance inspectors, and the remodeling of the interlocking plants and the painting of the girders, trestles, etc., under the Union tracks east of the Union Station.

ft DEMOCRATIC OUTRAGE GAME THAT IS BEING WORKED IN SOUTHERN INDIANA. Attempt to Moke Germans Relieve They Ar to ne Drafted Into the Army. The Democrats of Indiana appear to have reached a state of desperation and in their efforts to carry the State are charged by people .who claim to know what they are talking about, with resorting to the most contemptible methods. One of their schemes, it is related, is to get up a big scare in the rural districts and particularly among the German farmers over the bugaboo of militarism. Reports to State committee headquarters indicate that a shrewd scheme of this kind is being worked In the southern part of the State. In Dubois, Perry, Crawford and other southern counties there are many German farmers. They are a prosperous people. They stay at home and attend to their own affairs and have too much work on hands usually to discuss politics or read the newspapers carefully. They have heard, however, the Democratic cry of 'militarism" and "imperialism." Early in the campaign the Democratic managers claimed that the German voters would desert the Republican ranks because of the alleged danger of militarism. It is charged that now the Democrats have invented a shrewd scheme to convince the German farmers and other ruralltes in the southern part of the State that the country is in great dangar from militarism. It is reported tnat men have been going through a number of the southern counties, visiting the farmers and representing that they are there to ascertain who Is fit for military duty in that part of the State. In many instances they take measurements. They are supposed, of course, to represent the government. To those people they Inspect they say the country will be in need of a large army in the event that the war in the Philippines is not ended soon. Following these "military inspectors" comes a campaign speaker, who makes it plain to the people that the only hope of ending the war in the Philippines poon is to elect William J. Bryan. Many people who hear the story of .these "inspectors" are liable to jump to the conclusion that the draft system is about to be inaugurated and that all able-bodied men are likely to have to leave their homes and Join the army. These "Inspectors," it seems, give out the Impression that every able-bodied boy or man, between the ages of fourteen and forty, may be called on for military duty. Of course there is nothing in all this except the outrageous Democratic attempt to scare a few voters nto voting for Bry an. Funeral of a Chinaman. The funeral of Moy Chong, a Chinese laundrynan, who died at Muncie, will be held at Kregelo's undertaking parlors today. The Chinese have prepared their regular funeral service to be given this morning and the Masonic service will be given in the afternoon as Moy Chong was a Mason. The remains will be placed in & vault at Crown Hill for a few days and will then be shipped to China. ' A Toast to the Losing Man.

STILL ON HIGGINS CASE

THE GRAND JURY MAY IJE ABLE TO REPORT TO-DAY, George Ranch, One of the Jurors, Unable to Appear Appeals to High Court Court Cases. The character of the witnesses before the grand jury yesterday indicates that the investigation of the Higgins case was along the line of "protection." Prosecutor Pugh thought he would have a report ready to submit to Judge Alford by last night, but the examination was continued until today. Geortro Hanch, a member of the grand Jury4 sent a letter to Prosecutor Pugh yesterday morning, saying he was too ill to attend the session, and a report cannot be made until he returns and hears the evidence taken in shorthand read to him. The investigation has gone on without him. Prosecutor Pugh thinks all witnesses will be examined to-day, and a report will at once be made, providing Hanch is present. Otto Fisher, who was wanted by the prosecuting attorney last week to testify in the Fred Heler cases, was brought into the Criminal Court yesterday, and his bond was fixed at $200 for his appearance at the trial. He said he had not tried to evade the officers and did not run away. Later, he was taken to the grand jury room, but remained but a few minutes. The nature of his testimony is not known. Jacob L. Bleler, of the Anheuser-Busch Brewing Company, and Andrew Hagan, of the Home Brewing Company, were before the Jury. Their testimony was In reference to brewery ordinances. John BaVmfuhrer, said to be a professional gambler, testified. Late in the afternoon, C. T. Jarvis, of the "Bike" saloon, was called to testify as to the alleged attempt of Higgins to furnish him "protection." HIggins's offer was refused, and Jarvis says Higgins then wanted to start a gambling room over his place of business, but this was also refused. Thomas Sherman, private secretary to Superintendent Zion. of the Union Rallwy Company, and D. M. Tarry were recalled. I. N. Richardson and Frank T. Baker, a newspaper reporter, also testified. I. Sagolowski, a Junk dealer, was examined In reference to .the ordinance introduced by Higgins favorable to dealers in old bottles. The ordinance was not passed. The witness said he had never been approached by Higgins, and the nearest thing to a bribe he gave the councilman was a cigar or drink of whisky. Councilman Albert Daller was also a witness. Albert Lieber, of the Indianapolis Brewing Company, was summoned for Saturday, but he was out of the city, and service could not be rendered. He was still away yesterday, and if he returns in tlmej his testimony will likely be taken to-day. e APPEAL CASES. Matters to Re Adjudicated by the Higher Courts. The case of the Chicago, Indianapolis & Louisville Railroad Company against B. E. Martin was filed on appeal in the Supreme Court yesterday. Martin alleges in his complaint that he bought a ticket from Pekin to Louisville and return and that on the return trip the train did not stop at Pekin and carried him on to the next stop. He was compelled, he alleges, to pay an extra fare and did so under protest. He brought suit In the Washington county Circuit Court and recovered a judgment for $500, and the railroad company appealed. The Pittsburg. Fort Wayne & Chicago Railroad Company , has . pppealed from a J1.500 Judgment recovered by Morton A. Gillespie, surveyor of Whitley county, for an alleged failure to keep a ditch in repair. In the case of Melvln U. Damerest and others, of WhltTey county, which has been filed on appeal In the Supreme Court, the complaint alleges that there is due him as township treasurer, the sum of $3,900 from the county treasury. It is stated in tho complaint that when the distribution of school funds was made the treasurer of the county accepted all of the township orders nnd raid them all with the exception of $5,&00. The complainant alleges that the unpaid orders were marked paid nnd filed away with the orders that had been paid, and that notwithstanding repeated demands have been made for the money the orders amounting $3,900 remain still unpaid." Complicated Damnge Snlr. The suit of Mary A. Krug against the Frank Bird Transfer Company and the street car company for $5,000 damages was heard by Judge Allen yesterday. She alleges she was injured in a collision with a street car and cab at the Union Station, last January. The cab was standing on the west side of the station, close to the street car tracks, when. a' car struck it. The carriage was overturned, and tho woman was thrown out through the top. The street car companj' says that as the woman was a passenger of the Bird Company, it should shoulder the responsibility, and the Bird Company says it has a right to have its carriages on the street and the company was negligent. The fight will be more between these two companies than over the amount of damages the plaintiff seeks. Two Damage Suits Filed. Laura Smith sued the street car company, yesterday, for $3,000 damages. She says as she was riding north on an Indiana-avenue car her hat blew off at Capitol avenue. She signaled the conductor to stop the car, which he did at Senate avenue. In the act of alighting to go back to get her hat, she says the car started too soon and she was thrown to tho pavement, sustaining permanent injuries. William McDougal sued the Big Four Railroad Company for $3,000 damages. Ha alleges he was struck by a passing train at Missouri street and Indiana avenue while standing close to the track. Probate Court Matters. Albert D. Bowen was appointed guardian of Morris P., Albert D. and Robert Bowen, yesterday, and gave a bond of $600. John A. Warner was appointed administrator of the estate of Charles T. Shupper and gave $200 bond. James B. Carpenter was appointed guardian of John Biehler, giving a bond of $30. Mary A. Johnson was appointed administrator of the estate of James Johnson and gave a bond of $300. TV. H. Stearns Fined. W. H. Stearns was fined $5 for assault and battery by Judge Alford, of the Criminal Court, yesterday. Stearns is a custodian at the fair' grounds. William M. Miller and other boys were racing on their bicycles on the track when Stearns ordered them off. It is charged that he led Miller off the track without allowing him to arrange his clothes, and on the outside, struck him In the face. Ina McKrlll's Complaint. Ina McKrlll, yesterday, brought suit for divorce from her husband, Russel McKrlll, alleging that six months after their marriage, in 1&87, he struck and beat her. Five years ago they separated and he is now in the Insane Hospital at Logansport, and she asks for & divorce. A DamaftTw Sat. Alice E.

Representative Overstreet, accompanied by Frank L. Littleton, went down and made two rousing speeches. Mr. Overstreet spoke in a hall and Mr. Littleton addressed an overflow meeting. Later, Mr. Littleton addressed Mr. Overstreet's meeting, and the latter talked to the street crowd. By this plan both crowds were permitted to hear both orators. Bert McAlpln, of Greenwood, presided at both meetings. There was a brass band present, and plenty of music by a glee club. Mr. Overstreet discussed the different Issues of the campaign In a general way. Mr. Littleton did likewise, and devoted a part of his speech to Frank B. Burke, Mr. Overstreet's opponent. To-night Mr. Overstreet will speak at Acton, with Charles S. Wiltsie. , e NOON MEETING HELD. Representative Overstreet at the Rrown-Ketchnm "Works. One of the most enthusiastic noon meetings that Representative Overstreet has held took place yesterday at the BrownKetcham iron works at Haughvllle.

Some time ago when it was suggested by some of the men in the Brown-Ketcham establishment that Mr. Overstreet be invited to address them Mr. Ketcham said he was quite willing, but he believed the Democrats in the shop should have a. fair chance to hear their candidate, and they were given the privilege of Inviting Frank B. Burke, who will address tho men to-day. Mr. Overstreet's noon meeting to-day will be held at the Atlas engine works. Attorney General Taylor will address the men at the Chandler & Taylor establishment at noon, and Frederick E. Matson will talk to the employes at the Frederick M. Bachman establishment.

""" THE HICKORY ELM CLUB. A Republican Speech Mückle on 31 n gnanlmtty. "Has any other member of Mr. Cleveland's late Cabinet repudiated Mr. Bryan partially or in toto since the last meeting of this club?'. inquired the presIdenL There was no response. . "Has any Democrat of national prominence left us within the last twenty-four hours?" he inquired. Colonel Snort arose and said: "I have been keeping tab on Democrats of national prominence, and am glad to say that we have got rid of most of the more Conspicuous of them and that there will be very few desertions hereafter. If Bryan had stayed away from New York and Michigan I am satisfied that many Democrats of national and local prominence In those States would have remained with us to theend of the campaign, if not longer." Colonel Snort stated that a number of Democrats who belong to the sheep breedits false prophet, say the enemy, but what ers trust had left Bryan because they understood that he intended to repeal the tariff on wool. Dr. Fugleton reported from the committee on medical quacks that the physicians and surgeons were still Indulging a feeling of security and that he had heard of no Democrat . renouncing Mr. Bryan on account of any threat he had made ' to abolish the medical societies of the country for having combined to regulate prices of visits to the sick, lame or demented. Said he: "It is very probable that if some one should post him on the state of the statutes in some of tho States with reference to the. schemes that have been enacted into law for the protection of the public against imposition by quack doctors, he would immediately demand their repeal, in which case he would lose some votes." "A few days more," said the president, "and the country will know definitely what it may expect for the next four years. I said this to a Republican acquaintance of mine the other day and he wanted to. bet rive to one that he could tell definitely right then how the country would be fixed for the next four ears. I told him to keep his money, that I could not afford to compromise my character by wagering money on an election at any odds whatever. He went on to make a stump speech by saying that Bryan had tried to make imperialism the paramount issue without the consent of any other party on earth. Said he: 'Political issues are not made by candidates or conventions. They arise naturally from the conditions prevailing at the time, and as the conditions existing in this country at this time are satisfactory to everybody in business and to everybody engaged In earning wages, the only question that can logically grow out of the situation is, does the country want a change? Of course, the Bryan Democracy wants a change, but that element would demand a change though McKinley had caused ten-dollar bills to grow on blackberry bushes, with every man, woman and child in America the owner of a blackberry patch. Upon the paramount issue of a change we have upon one side the gold standard, Eound money, increased foreign trade, good prices for the products of the factories and the farms, the glory of the splendid achievements of the army and navy In the Spanish war, the emancipation of a people from the' tyranny and oppression of a cruel and corrupt government, territorial expansion and prosperity unparalleled in the history of this or any other country in ancient or modern times. Cn the other hand we have Bryanism, which means opposition to all the policies of the administration that have given us these conditions. We are to have the experiment of bimetallism, whatever that may mean, without even the promise of another day's work for better pay for any man. We are to open the American markets to the cheap goods of foreign countries; we are to haul down the flag in the Philippines, surrender to Aguinaldo and abandon profitable commerce in the East forever. We are to strike down the industries of the land on the pretense of getting rid of the trusts, and abolish the little standing army that we have and let the mob run the machine to Its heart's content. Since I have come to think of it. i win oet you ten to one that it won t happen,' said he, and he went on to say: 'There never has been the remotest chance for your man Bryan since McKinley went to- Washington in '97. If the war with Spain had been a failure; if Dewey had slipped a cog and lost his fleet in Manila bay; if Cervera had smashed Sampson and Schley: if the Rough Riders had been captured by the Spaniards; if the treaty of Paris had given Spain a billion dollars Indemnity; if there had been a deficit in the revenues of the government by the failure of the Dlngley tariff; if business had not revived and the souphouse had remained in the land, there might have been a show for Bryan, but as It is I will wager sixteen .to one that he will never see the White House as President of the United States. " "What did you reply to him after he had churned you in that manner?" inquired Colonel Snort. "What could I say? I knew In my heart that he was telling the truth, and I had no money to stop the bluff." "As I understand the custom and laws of this club." said Dr. Fugleton, "what Is said here goes no further. Am I correct. Mr. President?" . r "Your understanding Is correct. The secrets of this club are held to be Inviolate, aid everything said or done her Is a secreL" "Well. then. I wish to make a confession." said Dr. Fugleton. "I have only been an active member for a short time, as you all know, and I hare some delicacy about offering advice, and I feel It to be my duty to say, with due deference to the hopes and feelings of those presen that the national election, for all Intents and purposes, has been held, and we might as well treat it as an event of the past. If It were not for the per diem that will be earned by a few Democrats on the election boards on election day I would move to make the choice of McKinley and Rccsvlt unzr.Ir:u3. net that I indorse eil rrlz:i-::3 fcr rrhlch try ctand
