BRYAN ON THE ISSUES. Links Anti-Imperialism With Silver. Des Moines, Io., Aug. 16.—Wm. J. Bryan declared in his speech here that the Chicago platform, like the inaugural address of Thomas Jeffer- son, was built fer all time. He said: “We need not repudiate a syllable or idea of it. But when new and important issues arise we can take them into the family and make the campaign upon them without apolo- gizing for any past fight.” Mr. Bryan associated an anti trust declaration with the movement against imperialism, and said these issues would be paramount next year. “A new danger of the trusts, he said, “has just been developed. When a trust gets control of all the factories in a given line and the hands of one factory strike, the trust will close that one establishment | from service in the Philippines with this opinion of the nativee, expressed in a letter to the Milwaukee Journal: | “The capability of the Filipinos ‘for self government can not be doubted; * * * \fair start, could look out for them- | selves infinitely better than our peo- | ple imagine.

I want you to explain why you made that movement with your brigade,” spoke Otis. “I did not disobey any orders,” replied Hale, “and well you know it. | Jones's Fiag. | Washington, D.

The committee on badges and medals has decided upon a souvenir more historic, the national flag may be replaced by a reproduction of the original flag of freedom, which was flown by the first naval hero of the nation, Paul Jones, when he carried! the Bonhomme Richard upon the seas and began the peerless history of the United States Navy to which Dewey added luster at Manila. This flag, which is now in the National Museum, was made in Phil- adelphia by Misses Mary and Sarah Austin, under the immediate super vision of Gen. George Washington | and Captain John Brown. It is of English bunting, two and one half yards long and a yard wide, sewed with flax thread, and contains twelve} stars, arranged in four horizontal | The Kind You Have Always Bought, and which bas been in use for over 30 years, has borne the signatnre of and has been made under his pere Zz = : ion since its infancy, leceive you in this, All Counterteits, I ons and * Just-as-good’ re but Experiments that nd nuger the Ith of Infants and Children—Experience nst What is CASTORIA tor Castor Oil, Paree It is Pleasant.

The difference, he said, between a Republic and an Empire is this: A Republic needs an army of 25,000 for 70,000,000 people; an empire needs four times that large an army when 10,000,000 population is added “This suits the young men who get fat jobs in the army, but not the people who pay the $15,000,000 a year needed to maintain the soldiers in the Philippines.” Mr. Bryan gave figures to show that England and other nations do not colonize rapidly, and said that with 20 people to the square mile in The army, however, of Aguinaldo was the marvel of his achievements. He had over twenty regiments of comparatively well organized, well drilled and well dressed soldiers» carrying modern rifles and ammuni- tion. * * * Along with the army there was a Red Cross association, at the head of which were Aguinaldo’s mother and wife. In the matter of native participation (in the government) I am a believer that they are capable of a much larger degree of responsibility than that for which they are commonly given credit.” Our vice consul at Hong Kong, Mr. Wildman, wrote to Harper’s Weekly last winter: “Whatever the outcome of our policy in the Philippines will be, the islands will ever owe a debt of deep He has understand that it is mine. to fail.” “This matter will go to Washing for it.” retorted. thing? and if you do not retract it I will place you under arrest,” Otis roared.
