If Governor McSweeney lias any idea
of running for office of any kind again,
O J O '
he had better make some determined
effort to enforce the dispensary law in
Charleston. From all that we can gather,
fie law is being violated more flagrantly
and openly now than at any time since
its adoption. It was charged in the last^.
campaign that McSweeney had agreed not
to enforce the dispensary law in Charleston
in exchange for the vote of that city,
and many people are beginning to believe
that this is true. The present condition
of affairs is a shame and disgrace to South
Carolina and the governor, and he should
either enforce the law or acknowledge
that he cannot and resign.
The striking machinists will win the
resnect of nobodv by their lawlessness
and lose the sympathy of some by such
:-l:. _ action. But it is always the same. Very
^ few strikes ever occur unless there is
property destroyed, and men who are
trying to make an honest living are
beaten and abused. It is high time such
things were stopped. It is all right for
men to strike but they should not interfere
with the property or employees of
the company or corporation against whom
they have a grievance. The property of
a corporation is entitled to protection
just as much as that of the individual,
and strikers should be taught a severe
lesson along this line.
All this talk about building a home for
needy Confederate soldiers is humbug, of
the worst sort, and is not being done to
benefit the old veterans who are in bad

circumstances. Of course it will help

within her borders, and we notice
that Columbia is in favor of the home,
and, of course, wants it located in the

Confederate soldiers. Let the State
give them all the help possible in the way
of a pension and let them stay at home

balance of their days. The idea of building
a "poor house" for the men who suffered
for the cause of the South ! Its littie
short of an insult to them.
President Loubet to Americans.
The first magazine article written by M.
Loubet since he became President of the
French Republic will appear in The Saturday
Evening Post for July 13. This important
paper, entitled Young Men and
the Republic, after touching upon our
p.'" pleasant relations with the French Rep
public, continues with a significant reference
to the attitude of France toward the
?|' other Powers: The masterlv summing up
with which the article concludes is a fine
expression of the strong republican spirit
which reigns in France to-day.

A happy incident of the occasion was a
marriage in Williston. The contracting
parties, Mr. R C. Gigniallat and Miss
Genie P. Creech, came over from Barnwell
to enjoy the pleasures of the day
with other friends, hut attended by a sister
of Miss Creech, they sought the services
of Rev. W. M. Jones, who performed
the ceremony in the parlors of the Williston
Inn. The party then returned to
the picnic grounds where they were met
with the happy congratulations of their
numerous friends. Mr. Giguiallat is a
capable and ellicient telegraph operator
of the Southern railway, in Barnwell,
while the bride is a pretty and accomplished
daughter of our worthy sheriff.

Sqnare Fight in South Carolina.
The telegraphic news rumor that the
South Carolina politicians will try to
force McLaurin out of the State primary
will prove a boomerang if really att empted
by the executive committee.
There ought to be the widest discussion
of democratic policies and platforms
during the next few years. The details
of the important issues and planks on
which the party will go before the country
at the next general election arc not
worked out.
It is safe to say that the people and not
the politicians will shape these matters.
The old line democrats in South Carolina
and in other Southern States would
doubtless like to limit and proscribe democratic
doctrine. They would doubtless
like to make 10 to 1, support of Bryan
and a thousand and one populistie doctrines
still the measuring yard. It is
hardly possible that the old timers can
keep the party vote, clinging to political
corpses. They would defeat themselves
and their own purposes if they were to do
so.
The only chance for practical political
success is to put new life, new ideas,
new vim and energy, enthusiasm and patI
riotism and a great "deal of practical prosperity
points into the make-up of the next
I platform. Such a platform will more
nearly approach the ideal, Jefferson democracy
than anything we've had in years.
In order to do this, the party ought to
invite all the people to co-operate and
come into party primaries and in the
general discussion. If the democratic
party is going to be the people's party,
such is the proper course. If it is going
to degenerate into the personal party
machine of Bryan and of Tillman. Senator
Jones or any of the national, State or
county politicians, then it had best change
its name to suit its new purposes ?Augusta

Las tolil the story thus:
Colonel Ludlow, who was chief of the
water department of a large citj*, one day
received a call from a wealthy manufacturer,
whose establishment had many favors
to ask of the department. Before
this man made his request he handed the
colonel a fifty dollar bill, which the Col.
laid upon the desk before him, without
saying a word. When his visitor rose to
go, however, he inquired:
"Now, my dear sir, what is this for?"
holding up the bill.
"Oh, that's to buy cigars for the boys!"
"Yes; then I suppose you are fond of
the weed?"
The manufacturer acknowledged that
he did like a good cigar.
"Then allow me," said the chief, in hi*
most genial manner, "to insist upon your
trying one of these."
He took two cigars from a box, lighted
his own with the fifty dollar bill and
passed the burning paper to his amazed
visitor. The man said nothing, but he
never made a second attempt" to bribe

At the time of the adoption of the United
States Constitution there were several
riicM'twr. niiLMs of government proposed.
Of these plans the fight was mad? upon
two: the llumilIonian idea and the Jefxersonian
idea. Alexander Hamilton openly
maintained that the British Constitution
was the most perfect instrument of its J
kind ever in existenca Ho wanted all j
laws for the government of the States to
he passed by the Congress of the United
States. lie wanted the President of the
United StAtes and tho Senators to hold
ollice during good behavior. He wanted
tho Governors of the States appointed by
the President of the United Stutes and he
wanted the Federal Government to assume
the debts of the State. He wanted
a strong Seuate and a weak House of Repr<
sentatives, and openly proclaimed his
belief that the people were incnple of selfgovernment.
John Jay was scut as minister
to England in order to make a commercial
treaty, which would have placed
our commerce under the control of Great
Britain. The Hamiltonian idea was so far
carried out that ha succeeded in preventing
the incorporation of a bill of rights in
the Fc'derui Constitution. Under his
leadership the Congress imposed the
excise tax, which made tho rich
escape the burdens of taxation and
placed those burdens upon the poor. This
brought about the revolution in Pennsylvania
and came very near disrupting the
new Republic. Thomas Jefferson forced
the bill of rights into the Constitution as
an amendment. As minister to France he
succeeded in defeating the purposes of the
Jay treaty with England. Hamilton favored
and Jefferson opposed the granting
of monopolies, the establishing of u United
States bank and the assumption of the
State debts by the Federal Government.
Associated with Jefferson were Madison,
| Monroe, Samuel Adams, Albert Gallatin,
George Clinton and Benjamin Franklin.
Associated with Hamilton were John
Marshall, John Jay, John Adams and
Pine kney. The Democratic party has been
in continuous existence ever since the
adoption of the Constitution, while the
Federal party, of which the Republicans
are the successors, has passed through a
number of changes. The Federal party,
at first successful, Anally committed suicide
by carrying their doctrine of a centralized
government so far as to pass the
alien and sedition law. Under this law
the President was authorized upon his
own volition to expel from the country
any alien whom he might suspect as dangerous
to the peace and liberty of the
country, etc. This radical measure created
a powerful reaction.
The Democrats then remained in power
almost without interruption until 1860.
During this time all of the territoyy achv
i.hn United States UD to 1898
was secured except the Territory of Alaska,
and every foot of it was encountered
by the vigorous denunciation of the Republicans.
During this entire time the Democrats
were the progressive men. They held to
the principle that the people should rule,
but that the General Government, while
keeping taxation at the lowest rate consistent
with good government, should expend
the fund thus derived for the good
of the whole people. In 1858 they favored
subsidizing the Pacific Railroad. About
the same time fchey started the subsidy to
the Collins Line of steamships between
the United States and England. Based
upon the principle of the Jeffersonian
commercial treHty with Franoe, they had
concluded treaties with all the prinolpal
nations,and those treaties are still in force.
They had built up our foreign commerce
until it excited the wonder and admiration
of the entire world. They had, under
General Jackson, stopped imprisonment
for debt. They had fought two successful
wars with foreign nations. They had established
a credit throughout the world
second to no-nation on earth. They were
fighting for the principles of liberty of
thought and action and the freedom of
American citizenship. Matters of internal
concern the leaders of the party differed
about. General Jackson was the first to
make a reciprocity treaty. The next reciprocity
treaty was made by President
Pierce. John Randolph, acting against the
leaders of his party, voted against the
Embargo Act, and was finally successful
in defeating that legislation. Clay, Calhoun,
Cheves and Lowndes actively opposed
Pres dent Jefferson iu the matter of
decreasing the army. The first proposition
of a protective tariff for the purpose of
protection came from James Madison.and
Calhoun and Lowndes joined with Madi
sou ia its favor. The Federalists opposed
protection. Clay and Calhoun favored
measures of internal improvement, and
Madison vetoed them. Our great distinctive
foreign policy known as the Monroe
doctrine was a Democratic policy. The
Democrats defeated the scheme of the
Republicans to turn over Oregon and
Washington to Great Britain.
The Democratic party has never yet denied
to any man within its lines the privilege
of free thought and free speech. It
has never yet failed to correct mistakes
when it has made them. It has lost no
opportnnitv to build up the merchant
marine and open up our trade with foreign
ports. It opened up the Japanese ports
when nil of the nations of the earth had
failed.
The party has never been inconsistent,
and yet it has never stultified itself by
adhering to previous platforms when the
conditions which demanded them had
changed. Until 1S56 the Democrats had
denied the power in the Federal Government
to make internal improvement*, and
yet it was the llrst to advocate the. great
improvement of the Pacific railroads and
the Nicaragua!! Canal.
In the matter of tariff it was a protection
paity under the leadership of James
Madison; declared for free trade in 1848;
for "iucidential protection" in 1S6S; a
tariff for reveiuieonly in 1SS0, and in 188-1
the Convention said:
"Moreover, many Industries have come
to rely upon legislation for suepessful
continuance, so that any change of law
must i>c at every step regardful of the
labor and capital thus involved. The necer-wiry
reduction and taxation can and
irinst- be ejfeeted without depriving American
labor of the ability o compete successfully
with foreign labor and without
imposing lower rates of duty than will be
ample to cov<t any increased cost of Dro,
iluctIon which may exist in consequence
of the higher rate ol wages prevailing ir
this country."
In 1888 the nlaf form still recognized thai
other things ln-sides revenue were to Ik
taken into account in framing: tarilT legis
tat-ion. It said: "Our established iinlus
tries and enterprises should not be eudun
gered.':
for rpore than half a century everj
Democratic Convention condemned a nn
tiounl bank and firmly Suipportqd a oietal
lie currency. In 18>(\ ant! IKS* tin
Democratic party dec-tared in favor oj
gold and silver and paper convertible int*
1 coin on demand. In 18'r.r it favored t-ht
' coinage of both metals under an interna
tioua! agreement. In tasS the Republican
. platform read;
"The Republican party is in favor of th*
use of both gold and silver as money and
I condemns the policy of the Demo rath'
Administration in its efforts to demone
; tize silver."
In lS!?li the Republican platforn* was
identical in principle upon this qupsti ?ij
witu the Democraiic platform of 1SS0, l*S-l
, and 1-8%
There have been protection Democrats
ever since Madison and Calhoun favored
the protection 'doctrine. There have been
^ree trade Republicans from the foundation
of .o Government.
Such men a* Samuel .T- Randall, John
Randolph and John 0.1?alhoun always
\e treely and clearly whether or not
Ewere in accord with the platforms ol
: parties. The Democratic p u ty has
always favored freedom of speech and ac
1 tion. The Republican party has always
sought to so centralize the Government as
to carry oafcjthe ideaof Alexander Hamil
ton. "The Democratic party has been a
party that has ha I for its policy the greatest
goo?I 10 thegreatest number while the
Republican parly, as a party, has beiieved
with Hamilton, its founder, in bestowing |
benefits upon the few ami only burdens j
upon the many, until these "bitter day I
saints" have led the Democratic party j
into socialism, while as to expansion and !
subsidies the Republicans have taken ad
vantage of the situation and boldly gut j
upon the Democratic platform.
They are now upon the currency ?pies !
tion practically where the J>? moeratic I
party stood up to 1S;K3. They arc now ad :
vocating tlie reciprocity of .lacks >n and i
Pierce. They are now advocating the I
Democratic principle which is announced !
in the Democratic Convention of !S.V> in \
the matter of building the Pacific Rail-)
road. They want to apply that principle
to our foreign commorso. Whenever the j
Republicans are forced to abandon their |
own policy they take up Democratic poli- j
cies, and t he Democrats are asked to oppose
those Democratic policies because
they have been adopted by the Republicans.
The Democrats of this country must
stand together and restore their party to j
the power which was theirs. They cannot
do it by condemning that which is good
because the Republicans endorse it, nor
can they do it by going ofF after strange
and unsound pol.cies in order to secure

, publican. The fight of Hamilton and
! JelTerson la still on in this country, and
j will be until it is fought to a finish.
Either we will have an aristocracy or we
will have a republic. Are the Democrats
to discard their fundamental idea of the
liberty of the individual and freedom of
thought and action by refusing to recognize
as members of their party those men
who have always fought its battles in the
past, but who in the present believe that
6ome of its policies are not the policies of
the true Democracy? The true Democracy
is a progressive party. It progressed as
no other party ever has done, ami the nation
prospered by reason of its wisdom and
its administration of public affairs. It
cannot prosper if it is to oppose the extension
of our foreign trade, the creation of
new markets, the upbuilding of our commercial
and industrial interests and the
freedom of the individual. If the Republican
party, the record of which shows it
to have been a party forbidding the free
exercise of speech, concentrating tho
wealth of the country in the hands of a
few, burdening the people by excessive
taxation and conducting public aifairs for
the benefit of privato citizens; if that
party is to be allowed to turn its back
upon its record and, by adopting the progressive
features of the Democracy, become
tho party of progress, then the Democratic
party, having allowed its opponent
to appropriate its principles, can no
longer live.
I believe that the Democratic party does
not exist for the mere purpose of opposing
whatever the Republican party rrtay
suggest. I believe that it lives, as it has
Uvea in times past, for the purpose of
Adopting that which is right and discarding
thAt which is wrong, and conducting
the affairs of State so as to make all men
equal under the law.
The record of the Democratic party upon
the money auestion has always been in
favor of gold and silver coined at such a
ratio as will maintain their parity and
paper money convertible into coin at the
will of the holder. There is not a line in j
abt Democratic platform fixing the ratio
of silver and gold piior to 1S96. There Is
not a line In any Republican platform advocating
or opposing the ratio of 16 to 1
or any other particular ratio. There
were strong men in the Democratic party
in favor of the free coinage of silver; there
were strong men in tne Republican party
in favor of the free coinage of silver. The
Republican party adopted the first free
coinage platform. Although siiver was
demonetized by Republican legislation in
1873. the only objection to that Act made
prior to 1896 came from the Republicans,
who had passed the Mintage Act, under
which silver was demonetized. After
twenty-three years' silence the Democratic
party condemned the Act of 1878, under
which silver was demonetized. The Republicans
answered by abrogating their
previous platform and indorsing for the
first time the monetary system for which
they were responsible. At that point both
parties split. Silver men withdrew from
the Republican party, and gold men, as
they were called, withdrew from the Democratic
party. There were more Democrats
who withdrew on account of their
belief in the monetary system than there
were Republicans who withdrew on account
of their opposition to it. The result
was that after a magnificently fought
campaign the Republiccns were successful,
and the Democratic leaders all agreed
that this Republican success was due to
those Democrats who had left their party
and voted either the Gold Democratic
ticket or directly for the Republican tick
et. The Democratic party showed that it
was not dead, and when it is taken into
consideration that the Democratic Administration
went into power at the time
of one of the greatest panics from which
this country has ever suffered, it is remarkable
that the figures should show,
as they do, that had tne party been united
it would have been continued in power.
Acting under their platform the Republican
party pased certain legislation
which settled the financial quesr.-on in accordance
with their wishes. There came
about a season of prosperity, not caused
by this legislation but uy numerous other
Tr.oi-.fnrs which nolltics had nothing to do
with. This period of prosperity carried
with it great business transactions. These
transactions were conducted under the
financial legislation already mentioned.
Some of the strongest advocates of the
free coinage of silver in both parties took
a conservative view of the situation, and
held that it had required over twenty
years and two panics to change from the
farmer system to the present one, and
that a change back again would require
equal time and cause a great disturbance
to our business interests. They believed
that, although the question has been settled
wrong, business had been so adapted
to the present condition that any change
of a radical character would cause widespread
disturbances. Showing that the
fundamental principles which have always
divided the Republican and the Demo
cratic parties were unchanged, thost
Democrats who were convinced thrit thi
unlimited coinage of silver at a ratio ol
16 to 1 would prove disastrous nevcrthe
less remained in their party, and in sev
eral States the delegation sent to -Kansas
City were composed of {Democrats whe
to a man opposed the tree slver plank.
It was understood that William J. liryaii
should once more lead the party. It was
also understood that those opposed to t he
'. 16 to 1 plank were not opposed to his
leadership. They had no requests *o make
of the Kansas City Convention concerning
candidates. They went there determined
as fur as possible to have their party,
which abandoned its past principles and
stultified itself in IS9 s by an unhollv alii
ance with the Populists and Socialists,
placed backed upon its own old mo rings
and adopt a straight and Democratic
platform. Thev were willing that tin?
Populists should have the candidate it
they were allowed to preserve the principles
of the grand old party.
What did these men find when they
reached Kansas City? They found Western
delegations in which not a single man
had been a Democrat in 1893. These men
demanded a reiteration of the 16 to 1 plank
1 of the Chicago platform. The proposition
Sms mqde to them that they could have
otb candidates, and they con Id have any
fdanks they wanted, which are not SocialuHf
Aniirnhtsric and a11 the Democrats
asked was that their party be preserved
by maintaining its reputation as a sale
and conservative organization. John W.
' Daniel, of Virginia, as thorough a believer
in the free coinage of silver as any man
, in his party, and one of the grandest
characters in the United States Senate,
worked liked a beaver day and night to try
to convince these Western delegates
that their policy were suicidal. Gov'
ernor Smith, of Maryland, tojd tliepi that
the I), m ?crats could carry Maryland without
that plank and e ?uld not cary Alurylsnd
with it. (ren. St. ('Inir,of West Virginia,
work -d until 4 o'clock In the morning
with that committee and then went
back to his delegation, saying: "Hoys,
we are ruined." Torn Taggart of Indiana,
himself a silver man, worked liked a kav!
er to Javp that plank from being inserted
! and served notke y.jop hie party that.
' the Democrats of his state" were tmt in
sympathy with it and would not vote for
' the candidate if nominated upon such a
platform. The vote was taken and only
t fifteen States voted in favor of 1(5 to 1,
1 The Western dele afe^ weakened on the
: night of Jtily 4 and so apprised Mr. llryan.
By telephone message to his leader, .Mr.
Metcalf, of Nebraska, he informed the
I Convention that he would not accept the
i nomination if the iteration of In to I
i was not in the platform, ft was then too
j late to select another candidate, although
i J meetings were in progress hy at least
[ | twenty State delegations, denouncing the
i ' man who would so far dose, t the Demo
j cratic principle that the majority shall
! rule as to refuse to accept a nomination
i ! upon a Democratic platform that did not
i contain this new principle of Democracy.
; . ii was too late to concentrate upon an'
pther"candid$t9 apd Mr. Bryan was nomji

. the Democrats on the trains as they went
i i to their homes that they had been comi:

- j pf Bry&u's election* The jgaateru leaders
were "not surprised when Ifryau was uefeated
hy :? greater majority of popular
mid electoral votes tlwin in the election of
1-yti.
When such men as Senator Vest, David
It. ilili, (trover Cleveland and Don M.
Dickinson discussed the reorganization,
Mr. Hrynn replied in an editorial in the
Commoner, the plain purport of winch
was that he considered himself the Democratic
party and declined to he reorganized.
1 le has 011 various occasions in the
Commoner read out of the party all men
who were not willing to sjiaritiee all Democratic
principles to the interest of the
silver question. He attempted to defeat
Carter Harrison in Chicago and the regular
DeiuocV.'aie nominee for mayor in the
city of Sr. l.miis because tl.ey were Democrats
first, and did !l? it belie w that the
Democratic party should sink into obliv
ion by reason of an issue whieh has been
gallantly fought for. but irretrievably
lost.
The old line Democrats declined to lie
driven from their party by a man who,
durim; ten years of political lif.-, had been
n Democrat, a Populist and a Socialist.
The only office which William J. ltryan
ever held he was elected to by the Populists,
it being impossible for the Demot.?
ci.i'un. an election in that dis
trici. Ho acted with the Democrats in
Congress, hut distinctly stated that he
was not hound by a Democratic platform.
As a side partner of Mr. Bryan, and
sharing with, him in the nomination of
the Populists in 19QJ, is another brilliant
orator from the State of Minnesota. I refer
to Charles A. Towne. Mr. Toivnc,
like Mr. Bryan, became famous in a day
by reason of his oratory and has remainod
famous as a political lightning change artist.
His autobiography, published in the
Congressional Directory or the 54th Congress,
reads as follo\v3:
"Charles A. Towne, of Duluth, was horn
November 21, 1858, in Oakland Countv,
Michigan; educated in common schools
and tiie University of Michigan; admitted
to the Bar in 188(5; removed to Duluth in
1890 : took part in every campaign from
1870 down, but never ran for office until
elected to the 54th Congress as a Republican,
receiving 3 ,487 votes, against 15,830
votes for Melvin R. Baldwin, Democrat,
and 0,475 votes for Klttel Halvorsen, Populist."
Tho next issue of the Congressional Directory
conveys the startling information
that Charles A. Towne was d-featod on
the Populistic ticket by the Hon. Page
Morris. The most remarkable speech that
Mr. Towne mado (luring his term in Conpress
was one in which he said that, while
young, "his record as a Republican was
unimpeachable." He had inherited it
"from his father and his grandfather."
He had been "rocked in a Republican
cradle" and had always lifted up his voice
iu behalf of the Republican party."
o (nn- n?f? p fhi? renmrl-nlilt.
It IVUU1 (* AVM ? VV - ......
speech he hiul walked out of the only ReKubliean
Convention to which he had ever
een a delegate and joined the Silver Republican
party. He went home as a Silver
Republican and two weeks later was nominated
for Congress as a Populist and endorsed
by the Democrats. He was nominated
as Vice President by the Populists
and then went to Kansas City and proilaimed
to the Democratic Convention
that he was only masquerading as a Populist
and Silver Republican, and, as a
matter of fact, was a simon pure Democrat.
He then received as a Populist from
the Popnlistic Governor of Minnesota a
thirty-day appointment as Senator of the
United States, and placed himself under
the direct management of Senators Pettiprow
and Duller, one a Republican and
die other a Populist.
When a party of men are willing to see
iheir party go down in defeat in order
Ihat one issue may be maintained they
jither l>elieve. that this issue lies at the
rery foundation of all government, or else
they have some ulterior motive. In the
vase of the silver Issue experience has
proved that, whether or not the free coinage
of silver is beneficial and the wisest
system of finance, yet the perpetuity of
aur institutions does not depend upon it.
it Is not an issue of such magnitude as to
justify the disorganisation of a political
party in a vain attempt to estau'/ish it.
And yet there can be no doubt, that the
leaders of the Democratic partj', wbo were
responsible for forcing that issue in 1900,
knew when thev did so that they were enilancering
the life of the party, without
In any way making it possible to carry out
their design, even though elected. Had
the Democratic party succeeded the Demicrats
from tiie states which voted against
that plank v ould have voted against tne
legislation. This would have defeated
any Act sought to be passed for the freo
coinage of silver.
Had every state which voted for the free
and unlimited coinage of silver in the convention
of 19u0 elected every congressman
a Democrat they could not have carried
that legislation. The Democrats themselves
from the states oppo-cd to it would
have defeated It. If the entire house of
representatives had been Democratic a
majority of tins membership, as shown by
the votes of the states in the Democratic
convention, would have opposed the free
coinage of silver. Then what was the object
of these men? It would seem that
there coukl only he one solution, xne
delegates from the West were personally
interested in the free coinage of silver for
the reason that, if carried out. it would
open up the Western silver mines and
double the value of Western property.
The east would have been injured only by
the unsettling of business. The East and
the West could by a coalition obtain com
plete control of the finance and commerce
of the south. All contractswould have l>een
gold contracts. Under the free coinage law
there would undoubtedly be a provision
by which the Western bullion would be
Ft resented to the mint by the Eastern
>anks and form a basis of permanent and
constant, credit for all Western transactions.
The banks would control the bullion
and the rates of exchange, anil thus
what they would lose by the depreciation
of contracts not already in gold they
would about make even through their
Western connections. Hut the .South produces
no bullion. It would have 110 need
for maintaining a reserve in the East such
as would be created for the benefit of the
West by the bullion.
All ot its contracts would be gold contracts.
For all of its money it would be
dependent noon the East and be compelled
to pay whatever rates* the Eastern banks
saw fit to charge. Then a part of the
same scheme was to prevent the Democratic
policy of the repeal of the tax upon
State banks, in ord. rto prevent the Southern
States from having any circulating
medium whatever for local purposes. The
West would have its silver as n basis for
obtaining the gold and the East would
control the gold; the South would be pro
vented from even having paper, and would
!>e under the absolute and complete and
perfect control of the East and West.
When I made a fight in the House for
the repeal of the 10 per cent tax Mr. I>ryan
voted against ir, and I invite your attention
to his utterances at this time, which
fully confirm what I say. Congressman
Bailey of Texas, one of the ablest men in
the United States, called my attention to
the sinister attitude of Mr. Bryan at the
time. The Western silver mine owners
were supposed at the time of the Convention
to put up the money for the campaign.
But the East had become so largely
interested in the newly organized indus
tries of the South, and so much Eastern
money had been withdrawn from the
West, and found profitable employment
in the Soiith, that tlip Eastern bankers
saw that they had as much to lose by such
an arrangement as they could possibly
gain and declined to enter the arrange
nicnt demanded by the Western mine
owners. At this point, which occurred
when the campaign was at its height, the
promised contribution to the Democratic

diana were notably so. Rut when the
financial scheme fell through there was
no longer any doubt as t> the outcome of
the election, "and the doubtful Suites all
gave greatly increased Republican majorities.
Tiie trouble with the South has always
bpen its clinging to traditions and its la.-k
of practical wisdom in preventing the
other sections from imposing upon them
by under-handed means. Tie* South is
solidly Democratic, for nowhere in flu1
world is then* a greater love for freedom
of speech, liberty of thought and action,
and absolute justice, which are the foundation
stones of the Democratic party.

and they will learn that instead of

from, and that no scheme foF the
