Next to the guest Le was the | most conspicuous figure in con n with the Bryan reception in New York. He was all the time by the side of the candidate, and the fact that he is the Incarnation of ypolitical venality and corruption, the fact that his wealth has been gained by methods that will uot bear investigation, the fact that he is a large stockholder in one of the most extortionate and oppressive trusts ever organized, did not interfere with his re- celving every couslderation from that iend of the plain people” and “ex- ponent of Jeffersonlan principles,” W, J. Bryan, At the Tammany banquet, which cost $24 o plate exclusive of the wine, Croker and Bryan sat together—the one representing the most brutal, corrupt and unserupulous politieal organization in the world, the other posing before | the country as the champion of popu- | lar rights, for which the Tammany | boss has no respect, and as the friend of the farmer and laborer, for Croker bas only contempt these representatives of mocracy rode through sharing together the g people.

All through the report the proceedings the name of Croker stnads out prominently, attesting that Le the leadiug spirit {u the reception and that his welation to !t was eutirel agreesble to Mr. Bryan. The Asso- clated Press report states that when the candidate had finished speaking in Madison square “Mr. Croker took his arm and led him to the rear of the | stand o see the crowd assembled there.

We are told that the republicans are engaged in a grand conspiracy to cocrce the votes of cor- poration employes. We are told that Hunoa {s doing np bavk bills in big rolls to purchase the venal vote away from Bryan. We told that the “machine” is arranging to perpetrate wholesul eglstration frauds for the purpose of voting repeaters on election duy. And they have it all figured out that 1,000 frauduleut votes will { exactly $1,000.

It is evident that the wageworkers of Michigan are much better off than they were in 1897 Mr. Bryan is forced to admit that wages are higher than they were when ho was a presidentiel candidate for the first time but he contends that those whe are getting thiese higher wages are no better off than they wore in 1894, because the “trusts have advanced prices o much. This argu ment I8 altogether worthless as regards the mwen who are employed now, bhut who were idle fn 1596, The man who earns nothing when prices are low 15 worse off than the man who Is getting good wages when prices are high. The increase in savings b deposits shows that the wageworkers us a whole are putting aside more money than in previous years in spite of the greater cost of many of the commodities they use Mr. Bryan has such a horror of figures that he has not tried to show that the consumption by the wage-earner of goods the production cf which is controlled by “‘trusts’ is so great that his increase In wages does not exceed the advance in price of these goods. He could mot do it if he were to try. The greater part of the wages of the workingman goes to pay for commodities the price of which s not con trolled by “trusts. Though the “trusts ask mcre for their goods than in 1887, the workingman spends so little for those £00ds that he does n®t mind their greater cost, 50 long as he has higher wages. Mr. Bryan says “the laboring man is not able to pay ‘trust’ prices for wh he buys and receive republican wages for his work and lay away money for a rainy day.” But he is laylng away money for a rainy day During the year ending June 1 last work- ingmen in Ohlo, Indlaa, Illinols, Michigan Wisconsin and Minnesota lald away $68 000 in the savings banks PERSONAL NOTES, | | BEORK INSULTING THE NATION, perity and democratic depression. ! | et eimaa e | Bryan's Assertion ‘That e Presi- TwosThirds Wilr Do. dency Can Be Parchased.
