STEVENSON, of Iinois. A GREAT MISTAKE MADE. James Creelman, one of the léad- '|ing editorial writers of the New York Journal. in last Sunday’s issue of that _|paper, makes the following contrast '|between Candidate Stevenson, and Candidate Roosevelt and he certainly succeeds in demonstratingis the fact that this one of the cases spoken of by Shakespear in which “comparisons are odious”—adious for ‘Teddy; If the theory of the democratic party—that the American people love peace and loathe militarsm—is_ right the nomination of Mr. Stevenson for vice-president was a wise act. If that theory is wrong and the American people have really become enamored of war for its own sake, the democratic party will be defeated anyhow. | Mr. Stevenson stands for peace. Mr. Roosvelt stands for war. One is a mature, conservative stateman, The other 1s a rough rider who served as a soilder for three montos and> ap- parently itends to use his soldiers coat as a political advertisment for the rest of his life. Both parties acted with great de- hberation in the selection of their can- didates for vice-president. The nom- imations for president were beyond the controlof the two conventions; they were settled in advance—one candidate being chosen by the trusts and syndicates and the other being the plain choice of the mass of his party. It isin the choice of the can- —= | didate for vice-president that we must Hotel Gladstone | WILDER & HICKEY, Props. FIRST-CLASS IN EVERY RESPECT. Sample Room and Livery in Connection.

The two candidates —Stevenson and Roosevelt—present a striking contrast. In presenting Mr. Roosevelt to the country as a candidate for vieé-pres- ident—against his protest—the re- publican party showed the courage of its belief that the party of imperialism, of subject colonies and of militarism is a popular policy. It is a bold and brilmant stroke. No man who has studied the dolitical couditions of the United States can deny that, The idea of puttnig a rough rider at the head of the senate—the most august body in the world—implies the aban- donment of a peaceful continental policy and the beginning of an era of militarv conquest. It is certain that one party or the other is making a serious mistake in its estimate of the present temper of public opinion on this continent. Which party has read the signs of the times correctly? Is the states- ‘man’s coat or the rough rider’s coat the true symbol of Americanism today? ae From the purely strategic stand point of vote-getting—all question of | principal aside—there is much to be said in favor of the glittermg policy adopted by President McKinley and Mr. Hanna, the policy of military force and national adventure. That policy is thoroughly embodied in Mr. Roosevelt. The last time but one I saw the excitable young governor of New York was in camp-of the First Cavalry before the battle of Santiago. After giving me a drink of ‘water out of the bucket which he held to my lips, he carefully asked about the im- pression made upon the people of the United States by the conduct «of his regiment ia the skirmish at Las Gu- asimas. He was.as thirsty for glory as I was for water. No man can blame him for that, and I only men- tion it as an indication of his charact- er. He said that he had resigned his position as assistant secretary of the navy because there, was a greater chance for glory in the fleld. His soilder’s coat had already become in his mind a political advertisement. Later on he got the tull benefit of the advertisement and was elected gov- ernor of New York before the unreas- oning and unreasonable war excite- ment had died down. But the war in Cuba was a war for humanity. forced on the unwilling Mc Kinley administration by the democ- ratic party. That war is over. The war which. is now draining the country of its wealth and sending hundreds of our young men to die in Asia isa war for the extension of trade. There is no spark of humanity or morality in it. We shed the blood of our own soldiers for the sake of getting many dollars—if we ever get them. pleases as 2 PLUTUCRACY IMPALED. The Republican organs, for the purpose of making capital, term Mr. Bryan an autocrat on account of the firm stand he took in regard to the financial plank in the Democratic platform. When a man is honest in his convictions, and asserts them with a courageous manhood because he thinks it 1s a duty he owes to the people, he is a democrat, not an autocrat. ‘The principles of Demo- cracy can only be carried into effect by bowing to the will of the people instead of the politician, In 1896 voters to the nember of 6,500,000 de- clared for the principles engrafted in that plank, and they are entitled to recognition. Mr, Bryan is sincere in respect to) this question, and has the Jacksonian qualification to declare for those doctrines fearlessly—and_ that 1s more than can be said of his oppon- ent, the present executive of this.great nation, Mr. McKinley voted for the free coinage of silver at the ratio of sixteen to one twice while ie was in congress, and denounced Mr. Cleve- land for his attitude toward the white metal, and then sprawled all cover himself by swallowing the gold stand- ard in order to become president of the United States. What a magnifi- cent spectacle of courageous patriot- ism our worthy president presents! ir. McKinley, in his annual mes- sage to congress, said it was our plain duty to abolish all tariff duties be- tween the United States and Porto Rico. But the wily politicians, realiz- ing the need of a large campaign fund this year, surrendered to the tobacco and sugar trust by placing a duty of 15 percent on Porto Rican products, and , President McKinley signed the bill. Mr. McKinley has proved himself to be a weak and vaciliating man—a_ tool in the hands of, the politicians and monopolists. tfe has changed his mind on nearly all of the great questions that have come before the people, with the ex- ception of the tariff question. Mr. Bryan, on the other hand, has demonstrated that he is a man with a heart of honesty and a will of iron—a peerless and courageous leader. ‘The masses and middle classes have confi- dence in him, The Kansas City con- vention was a cosmopolitan body, Everybody was represented except- ing the bondholders and bankers. The floor of the hall and the galeries were filled with mechanics, business- men, farmers and the brawny sons of toil, The enthusiasm awakened by Mr. Bryan everywhere among the common ‘people . proves their loyalty and allegiance to the great commoner, and when election day rolls around they will show. their appreciation of him by electing him president of the United States ——_+0+—___ THE CRY OF THE TORY. To day William McKinley 1s undo- ing the work of Thomas Jefferson, and the imperialists are reviving the cry of the old tores—“The colonies are not fit to govern themselves.” The doc- trines sancified by the blood of the Revolution are scorned as “glittering generalities,” while those who follow the chart laid down by our fathers are denounced as unpatriotic “subjects,” as they were in the days of yore. ~ The imperialists, that is to say the tories, of to-day have discovered the greatest blunder of history.

Governments derive their just power from the army and navy.” They would ignor the constitution so as to deprive human beings of the right of suffrage and the right of trial by jury. ‘They would revise the word of God and make Him say, “Thou shalt aot kill, except by the wholesale and for porposes of benovelent assimilation.” With fire and swords they would con- quer the Orient and in the meantime impoverish the Occident.—Johnstowd (Pa.)
