"Bryanism, according to the cool judgment of 99 per cent of our intelligent population, is bad enough, but when it ie inseparably linked with Altgeldism and Tillmanism and all other visioueiams, it in time for every patriot to stand guard for the honor and integrity of a national anion. tUg" The prospect of McKinley's elec tion is helping manufacturing industries in every line. From now on business conditions will grow brighter and better, It is generally believed that the period of hard times which has lasted for sever­ al years will end with McKinley's election and that money will then circulate freely, capital will seek investment and the laboring classes will be given plenty of work. I®" John M. Palmer, Democratic U. S Senator from Illinois, and candidate the sound money Democrats for Presi dent, during a speech at Brooklyn, N. Y Sept. 24. in speaking of Mr. Bryan indorsement on three platforms, said: The Populists like Bryan because he a Populist; silver men like him because he is a silver man, and the Chicago plat form makers like him because he is every, thing to everybody, and an anarchist you please." (Applause and laughter Perusal of a Democratic poster TREAT THEM ALL ALIKE, One of the misleading statements often made by silver stump speakers is as fol­ lows: "All we ask for silver, is that it shall be admitted to the mints on equal terms with gold. If I have one thousand dollars' worth of gold bullion, I can take it to the mint and have it coined. Why should I not enjoy the same privilege if I happen to have a thousand dollars' worth of silver bullion? Why should my gold be admitted to the mint and my silver shut out?" This question never fails to elicit loud applause. ' That's a clincher--good boy, hit him again." The answer is nevertheless obvious. If I have one thousand dollars' worth ol gold bullion and take it the mint, the government coins it for me aud stamps it §J,000. If I have a dollars' worth of silver bullion and take that to the mint, the government, so long as the ratio re­ mains 16 to 1, coins it and stamps it at the present price of pure silver, $2,000. This is not equality of privileges between the two metals; it is gross partiality and favoritism to silver. The govern ment has no right to do it. It has a right to do it on its own account if having said that a silver dollar is equal to a gold dollar, it stands ready to make that guarantee good. It has no right to let any dollar which it has issued whether of silver or of paper, fall below par. If it does it is guilty of bad faith. It has no right to take fifty cents worth of Bilver which does not belong to the government, but a private citizen, coin it, "one dollar," and give it back to the owner. An irredeemable silver dollar, in­ trinsically worth only half of its face value is a cheat. " Why," says the silverite, "it used to do it. All we ask is that the government shall return to its ancient practice." No it never did it. When it coined 371% grains of silver on private acsount, for the owner, that silver was worth 100 cents in gold. Now it is not. That is the difference, and a great difference, too. The intellectual and moral perceptions of the man who cannot see it must be feeble indeed. If the proposition of the Chicago plat­ form were to let the owner of a thousand dollars' worth of silver bullion take it to the mint and have it stamped $1,000 the same as the owner of gold bullion has a right to do, there would bt none of this anxiety and excitement on the part of business men that is everywhere apparent. It is because the free silver movement MB, LINOOLN.S WISE WORDS There ia in tlie present effort of the Chicago platform supporters to » array class against class much raillery and abuse of thoRe who have been so fortu­ nate as to accumulate more of this world's goods than their neighbor--a sort of an implication that it is a crimp to grow rich and that the m<te who ii> rich is a criminal who can only be reach­ ed by legislation extraordinary. Abra­ ham Lincoln in an address delivered at Kew Haven in 1860, discussed the faculty of acquiring wealth being more fully de­ veloped in some men than in others, and of the attitude the government should take in the premises. Mr. Lincoln's wise words are given belnw: f , What is the true condition of the la­ borers? I taae it that it is best for all to le'tve each man free to acquire property as fast as he can. Some will get wealthy. I don't believe in a law to prevent a man getting,rich; it will do a man more harm than good. So, while we do not propose any war upon capital, we do wish to allow the humblest man a change to get rich with everybody else. When one starts poor as most do in the race of life, f> ee society is such that he knows he can better hie condition; he knows that there is no fixed condition of labor for his whole life. I am not ashamed to confess that twenty-five years ago I was a hired laborer mauling rails, at work on a flat boat--just what happened to any poor man's son. I want every man to have a chance--and I behove a black is entitled to it--in which he may better his condi­ tion^ when he may look forward and hope to be a hired laborer this year and the next work jfor himself; and finally to hire men to work for him. That is the true system. Up here in New England vou have a soil that scarcely sprouts black-eyed beans, and yet where will you find wealthy men so wealthy, and pov erty so rarely in the extremity ? There is not another such place on earth ! desire that if you get too thick here and find it hard to better yourself on this soil you may bp v© a chance to strike and go somewhere else, where you may not be degraded, nor have your family corrupt ed by forced rivalry with negro slaves I want you to have a clean bed and no snakes in it! Then yoU can better your condition, and so it may go on in one ceaseless round as long as man exists on the earth."

The editor admits ht made a grave mistake in being carried away with the silver excitement and says: "Since then, in calmer moments, we have read the many speeches of Mr. Bryan, and are more mystified than ever to comprehend how any sane man could have been mislead by such inconsistency ' and absurdities. We are now asking bow can mopey become cheaper and at the same time double in value? How can good times be restored through a panic? How can the laboring man get better wages while his product sells" for less? How can the farmer get better prices for grain and meat while the laborer is to bay his subsistence cheaper? How can confidence be restored" by wiping out credit and casting honor to the winds? " a gathering of his old comrades, which he ueed these patriotic words: "Mr. Bryan and many of his support­ ers are trying to combine the South and West against the North and East. This is sectionalism, and the rebellion was the offspring of sectionalism. Will you fol­ low these dangerous guides, or will you still follow Washington in "frowning up­ on the first dawn of every attempt to alienate one part of our country from the rest, or to enfeeble the ties that link together the various parts? " Sectional­ ism has become h iteful to most of our old adversaries in the South, who have outgrown the asperities of and now are as loyal to their united country as any of us. Certainly Union veterans who fought for the Union, one country, one constitution and one destiny, never can favor any candidate or party that again seeks to array one section of our country against another."
