It must indeed be humiliating fora metropolitan paper like the Pioneer Press, to find itself championing a cause so baseless that its only defence lies in personal abuse of the opposi- tion. The press cf St. Paul and Min- neapolis are making votes for Bryan through their every issue. FUNDAMANTAL TRUIHS. Bryan has a wonderful eloquence, both in the simplicity of his language and his power of analysis. In the beginning of his New York address he stated the position of the Demo- party and platform in the following admirable manner: “We do not underestimate the forces arrayed against us, neither are we unmindful of the importance of the struggle in which we are engaged; but relying for success upon the right- eousness of our cause, we shall defend with all possible vigor the positions taken by our party. We are surprised that some of our opponents, in the absence of better argument, resort to abusive epithets, but they may rest assured that no language, however violent, no invective, however vehe- ment, will lead us to depart a single hairsbreath from the course marked Paul | BLAINE FOR GOLD A) an | Sp! and dismissed his | silver to be t tution—indeed, American people anterior stitution, law of the dependent of its’ own power bas been conferred on congress to declare that either metal should not be money. in my judgment, no more right to demonetize silver than to demonetize gold; no more power to demonetize either than to demonetize both. this statement I am but repeating stitutional lawyers. of opinion,’ said Mr. Webster, gold and silver, at rates fixed by con- 48 gress, constitute the legal standard of |. and it has been asserted that those whom I have the honor for the time being to represent. not only meditate an attack upon the rights of property, but are the foes of social order and national honor. ‘Tuose who stand upon the Chicago platform are p pared to make known and to def every emotion which infiuence them, and every hope which inspires them. of gove. tunder which we live, and they build their faith upon foundations laid by the faihers. Andrew Jackson has stated with admirable $s and with an em- phases which cannot be surpassed. both the duty and the sphere of goy- ernment. He said: ‘Distinctions in society will always exist under every just government. Equality of talents, of education or of wealth cannot be produced by human insti- t tutions. In the full enjoyment of the gifts of heaven and the fruits of superior industry, economy and virtue, every man is equally entitled to protection by law.’ We yield to none in our devotion to the doctrine just enunciated. Cur ca not for its object the reconstruction of society.. We cannot insure to the vicious the fruits of a virtuous life; we would not enter the homes of the provident to supply the wants of the spendthrift; do not propose to transfer the rewards of industry to the lap of indolence. Property is and will remain the and the compe believe, as asserted of Independ e, we mulus to end tion for toil We lie Declaration that all men are created equal; but that dves not mean that all men are or can be equal in possessions, in abilty or in merit; it nS that all shall stand ec und that gov- ull not in making, | uit gor nate between citizens.” ‘D SILVER. James G. Blaine ech of Feb. 7, 1878, in the United tes senate: “I believe gold and he money of the consti- the money of the to the con- money which the organic Republic recognized as in- existence. No Congress has, therefore, In the weighty dictum of the first con- ‘I am certainly ‘that value in this country, neither congress nor authority to dis and that the state has uce this standard.” In 1836 Daniel Webster said in the ited States Senate: “Gold and silver are the money of the constitu- tion. ‘The constitutional standard of value is established and cannot be overturned. To overturn it would shake the whole system. Gold and silver at rates fixed by congress con- stitute the legal standard of value in this country and neither congress nor any state has authority to establish any other standard or dispose of this.” Four Legged Bass. The fact that they are catching four-legged bass in some parts of Minnesota indicates that tne drink habit is still rampant. It takes a pretty good kind of whisky to breed tw-legged bass, let alone four-legged ones. No such freaks, however, are caught along the line of the Saint Paul & Duluth Railroad.
