Don't forget the Sehurman-Landis meeting at the rink tonight. It will be a rare opportunity to got correct information on the Philippine question. In order to -secure favorable seats at the rink tonight it will lie well to go early. Every seat in the house will be occupied. Ladies, of course, will be welcome. Richmond extends a hearty invitation o the gallant old boys of the Eighty-fourth to come again. Their presence in our midst has been a patriotic inspiration to the rising generation that is reaping the fruit of their sacrifice. So long as a handful of these grizzled heroes of the civil war survives this nation will tot lower the flag to rebels anywhere. In an interview at Indianapolis the other day Sid Conger of Shelby county uttered a solid chunk of truth in the following statement: "In my district the laboring people are with us. Why laboring men should vote for Bryan I don't know. He never gave a day's employment to a laborer in his life, and never will. If you will observe you will notice that 90 per cent, of the men that push things in this country, that employ labor and take risks are liepublieans. This ought to impress laboring men." f

THE POLITICAL - BA EX.-

Itryan is the prophet of evil. The fact that all his prophet-tea prove false does not seem to discourage him. In one of his 181; speeches he said: "If McKinley and the Republican party are successful and put in power lor the next lour years wa'es will be decreased, bard times mil come upon us, and over the land the price of wheat will o down and the price of pold will ffo up; mortaes on our homes will be foreclosed by the money lenders, shops and factories will close. We will export no troous and we will import from foreirn lands all the goods we use; thus wiil ruin, want and misery be with us.' Not content with the rain which he predicted in lsl6 and the fact that his prediction was false, he now oes one step further and predicts the complete overthrow and ruin of the Republic in the following words: "Today we are eneaed in a con troversy which will determine whether we are to have a republic in which the government derives its just jiowers from the consent of the governed, or an empire in which brute force is the only recognized source of power. When such an issue is raised there can te only two par ties tne irty. whatever its name may be, which believes in a republic, and a party, whatever its name which believes in an empire." V hat Mirar A. l'oe said of his ghostly I tu ven applies aptly to this modern Dropbet of evil: "What it utters la its only bun k and store f aiiKbt from some nnhappy m&ater W Imm unmerciful diaaater followed faat and followed faster Till his aoDfra one burden boe Till the dirges of his hope that Melancholy burden oore." Charles T. Jolly of Iloston, a well known importer of woollen goods while here today took occasion to denounce the Rev. W.

September 27, he will be accompanied bv ex-Lieutenant Gov ernor Thomas Ilanna, who will also sjieak. This will be one of the largest meetings. The state central commfttee has assigned to this county James McNamara, a speaker highly recom mended by the national committee. He is a reformed Democrat.

That sparkling musical tometly, "A Hell Hoy, will be presented in this city on next Saturday evening at the Phillips oiera house and it is safe to predict that standing room will be at a premium before the cur tain goes up on this humorous play, as it is said to be one of the best on the road. One of the secrets of the success of "A Hell Hoy," is that the management has jealously guarded against weakening it by an indiffer ent cast or tawdry scenery and in these details an excellent discipline has been maintained. CHOKER'S PLAIN TALK Former Views of the Tammany Leader on Expansion. When Xo Talked hi Klretlon Wai Pending- Tie In Favor of lloldlna; it We Have Said 16 to 1 Waa Dead. When no elections are pennons- such astute politicians as Richard Croker, the Tammany leader, will sometimes give expres-sion to their real views on public questions!. Mr. Croker, under date of January- 6, 1S99, contributed a siirned communication to the Xe York Journal, Mr. Hearst's New York organ, which, by the way, is saying nothing against expansion in this cam paign. Mr. Croker'sr views, in part follow: "I believe In expansion; I believe In hold ing whatever possessions we have gained by annexation, purchase or war. This policy is not only patriotic, but It is the only safe one to pursue. Any other policy would show weakness on the part of the Vnlted States, and Invite foreign complications. This must be avoided; hence our policy must be vigorous. Kvery patriotic American and every democrat in particular should favor ex pansion. '"Jefferson was an expansionist, other wise he would not have favored the acquisition of Louisiana, with its foreign population, which In Jefferson's time was quite as remote as the Philippines. In this j age or steam and electricity, distance Is no argument against expansion. "I say by all means hold on to all that rightfully belongs to us. If the great country west of the Rocky mountains was filled with wild Indians at the Dresent moment. how long would It take us to suppress them and make them respect our laws and our constitution? The same thing ap plies to the Philippines and any other country that may fall into our hands by the provinces of peace or war. It la an insult to the American people and to our flag even to suggest that we abandon the people we have released from bondage, or, what would be more disgraceful, that we ii tn?m to the highest bidder. Such a proposition places the American people in the same category with the Chinese, who have neither patriotism nor a for eign policy, and are in consequence used as a door mat by the powers of tha world. i minx tne 16 tQ 1 Question as outlined In the Chicago platform a decidedly dead issue. This was fullv demonstrated at the last election. We did not embody the I to I question In our (state) Dlstform and the result was that we elected every one of our congressmen." Mr. Croker is an ultra expansion ist and although he is supporting Mr. Iiryan for local reasons no doubt, the fact still stays that he considers 16 to 1 a dead issue in New York. He ia only too ready to drop it. Don't forget the meeting onlhursday evening at the Republican headquarters. The speaker will be the Hon. John Or. Schurman, president of the Philippine commission and also president of Cornell university. i

Whether we shall lave hard time this fall and for fout years to come lepenls upon the voters. No patrioic publisher, business man or citizen of any kind wants to see hard- times in the fall or ever. Still lees does anyone who deserves the name of citizen want to see a panic. Moreoter, no public man of any kind, nor any citizen, will do anj-thing, no matter how little, to bring on hard times from any politizal motive whatever. Itwoulci be the basest kind of act, unworthy of any true man. Unluckily these business af fairs are sometimes beyond the control of any personor group of persons The panic of '93 was caused not because anybody wanted it, or tried to bring t on, but bec-an, and waxed more ter rible as time went by, in spite of the efforts of hundreds, perhaps of thou-s-andi of patriotic and strong men. To understand how a season of hard times or panic will begin is almost im possible. A person, or persons, per haps a dozen or perhaps 10,000, have felt that a period of contraction and of stae-nateta business was about to come upon them; and then the dozen or 10,000 as a matter of self protection 1 W ' VAl ! 11 I'e i naps they must loan less, or sell less, for fear tha they cannot get their pay. That feel ing may not be necessary, but it cannot be denied that it is natural. If it were possible to prevent everybody from imagining that any untoward circumstances could happen, it might be possible invariably to prevent panic, but there is no controlling the timid. Indeed, in such a matter there is no controlling the brave. Men o immense nnancial resources and o uncommon nerve have been known to risk their entire fortunes, seeking to prevent nnancial disaster, for others as well as themselves and they failed failed to do this, and failed finan cially. It is to be hoped for our own sakes, as well as on account of numberless labor ers and capitalists of the country, whose interdependence upon one an other cannot be denied, and all of whom rtrpend upon a mutual confi dence each for the advancement and happiness of the others, that nothing Uke a stringency in the money mar ket, nothing like a curtailment of credits, nothing like the faintest timid ity on the part of business men any where, will be perceptible as the next two or three months pass bv. Pernaps it may seem optimistic to give the following advice. It is that every body, great and small, high or low. wno is cnargeo witn the making or marring or business, shall consider in the utmost seriousness whether he or she cannot do a little towards pro moting that confidence which is so necessary for a continuation of (rood times, by distinctly determining to continue things political and econom ical as they are, and by distinctly de termining not to help bring about chanire. It ia easy to say that a panic is not likely. We pray that it Is not. It cannot be denied that the slightest appearance of dread at great political or economic chang-es has hitherto at times started a retrograde movement of financial devastation, which it haa been beyond the power of any man, or any croup of men, no matter how arge, to s-tay. A RECORD TO BE PROUD OF. Cab a Haa Been Rapidly Getting lata Shape for the Proaaiaed SelfGovernment. The work of American occupation in Cuba may be briefly summed up as follows: Good order prevails all over the island. The country is self-supporting, witn a mucn lower taxation than im posed by Spain, and at the close of the last fiscal year there was an available balance of i2.50O,0O0. Thirty-one hun dred schools have been opened. 3.500 teachers employed and 30,000 children are in school, ieven courts having trial dv jury have been established in the arger towns. The elections for may ors passed off quietly and no arrests were made. Preparations are now go ing forward for electing delegates to a ."ontention wtiose duty will be to pre:are a constitution and form of government for the island. The troops are being gradually withdrawn and the way to complete Cuban independence ia being rapidly prepared. This record, unparalleled in the history "of the dealings of one nation with another, is evidence of the fact that the republican party is a bnilder and supporter of republics, and not the friend of imperialism. It does its duty, nnterrified by the shoutings of all the Bryans, Baileys and Blackburns. who would shirk responsibility, minimize patriotism and refuse to guide the weaker nations into the noble, self -denying- path ot liberty. .

BUSINESS FACTS.

Commercial Prosperity Re sults from a Protective Tariff. Official Figures . Show United States Now Second in the World's Foreign Trade. Calamity Cries of Bryan and His Followers Are Set at Naught. Markets of the World Being CapturedGold Standard and Protection Triumphant. Mr. Bryan is an advocate of free trade and free silver, but he and his followers have always maintained that a protective tariff would "deprive us of the markets of the world." while the gold standard, if maintained, would result in our absolute expulsion from them and our commercial ruin. What are the facts? We give below a table made from the official figures furnished by the treasury uepartment of the United States, showing the foreign commerce of the six great eivilized and cold standard nations of the world for the year 1S99. The figures for 19O0, so marvelous is the increase in our prosperity, it is confidently predicted, will put us at the head of the list or only excelled by one country. Great Britain. We have already, it is known, surpassed Great Britain in the volume of export trade. Country. Total Commerce. Great Britain J3.toO.591.02S United States 2.244.193.543 Germany 2,16.M.34 France 1.5f4.518.0u Netherlands 1.292.138.000 Russia 4SO.093.000 In 1S99 our commerce exceeded that of Germany by $57,347,203, making us that year the second nation in the world in foreign commerce, which is doing pretty well toward "capturing the markets of the world," and puts the calamity cries of Mr. Bryan and his followers in this respect on the list of discredited ravings of men grossly ignorant of the history of our commerce. But in the eyes of Mr. Bryan and his followers the gold standard "that the conspiracy against the human race" was to be the final nail in the coffin of our business in the markets of the world. In 1873, when the terrible "crime" was committed and "silver was assassinated," we bought of foreign countries $56,52S,651 more than we sold them. In other words we failed by that amount of capturing any of the markets of the world. In 1S72 before "silver had been struck down" we failed by $116,2S3,646 in capturing any of the markets of the world, for we bought just that much more of foreign countries than we eold them. But in 189G the people of this counresult In "capturing the markets of the world" is shown by the following table taken also from the official reports of the . United States treasury department: AMOUNT SOLD FOREIGN COUNTRIES MORE THAN WE BOUGHT. Tear Ending. 1897 J273.023.355 1J-98 . 1899. 534.624.S51 5"4.06.295 E71.384.0ol 1300 This looks as though we were "capturing the markets of the world" under a protective tariff and a gold standard faster than any other nation in the world ever captured them, and when the figures for the coming bscal year are in it will be the prosperity record of the world. The truth of this is shown by the fact that for the year ending June 30, 1900, the total commerce of the year surpasses by the vast sum of $317,729,250 that of any preceeding year, and we are still expanding. Do we want to take any step that will establish free trade and free silver and at one step paralyze this magnificent progress we are making? Ponder the above and answer with your ballot in November. IN SPLENDID SHAPE. Evidence That Labor Ia Floarlahlag Given by Amerlca'a Foremost Labor Leader. The labor conditions in 1S93 and 1S99 are stated tritely and truly by Samuel Gompers, the head of the American Federation of Labor. Mr. Gompers exact words are worth placing in parallel columns. He said: 1893. Since August of 1899. The revival of Industry which we have witnessed within the past year Is one for general congratulation. It Is bevond this year we nave been in the greatest Industrial depression this country has ever experienced. It is no exaggeration to say that more than 3.0.question that the wages of the organ 000 of ourfellow-toil-ised workers have ers throughout the been Increased, and country are without :in many Instances the employment. a n dlhours of labor either have been so since reduced or at leaat the time named. maintained. Mr. Gompers, besides seeping his position at the head of the American Federation ol Labor for many years (which is c tribute to his ability), has usually been classed as a democrat; which would, of course, make hia opinion as significant as possible. Oaee Borrowing;. Now Solvent. The United States borrowed $262,000.000 in gold in the last Cleveland admin istration in .order to save its credit. The United States haa $300,000,000 in bank to-day.
