He 8aye Reorganization Means Re* treat and Retreat Disaster. ________ SAYS PRINCIPLE MUST GOVERN. The Party Muni Not Secure the Much Dcmumlcil "Harmony" l>y Sur* to Trusta. Sltuntlou Holtlly llumllotl Three hundred Iiciuocrats attended the JefTersonian banquet at Pes Moines, la.. Thursday night and the demand for tickets could not be met. The attendance was representative of the Democratic party throughout the State of Iowa. The principal speakers were Win. J. Hryan and Dormer Vice President Adlai K. Stevenson. William Randolph Hearst of New York, who had been announced as a speaker, sent a letter in which he urged continued devotion by Democrats to the principles of JelTerson. Mr. Stevenson gave his views as to the proper policy for the Democratic party in the coming presidential campaign. He said in part: "In the approaching struggle for political supremacy appeal will he made more earnestly than ever before to Democrats to present an unbroken front. An appeal to all, regardless of past party affiliations, who condemn favoritism in legislation that favoritism which enriches the few at. the expense of the many: to all who, by wise legislation, would curb the power of the trusts, that constant menace to honest business enterprise and to popular government; to all who condemn extravagant and wasteful expenditures of the public money; to all who condemn t he latter day policy of foreign conquest; in a word, to all who would restore the safe and economical methods in government, established by the founders of the republic." Responding tothetoa.t. "Deinocraey," Mr. Mryan spoke in part as follows: "While this banquet has not been advertised as a 'harmony' feast it is much more in the interest of harmony than high priced banquets, which are held for the purpose of securing a select audience for the men who have not recently appeared on the stump in behalf of the Democratic party. "Harmony, like happiness, is not secured by seeking for it: it comes a> tlic reward of right doing. Harmony is a thing to be felt, not a thing to be talked about. The mere mention or harmony suggests dilTcrouces that need reconciliation, and the vociferous talk about harmony among those who disturbed li. leu the party and lent their inlluonee to the enemy, naturally recalls the issues that created the distubance and naturally suggests the inquiry whether the prodii gals have repented or demand repen\ tance of the party. i \ "The ditTerence which existed on I \ the money question still exists, for P while the Republicans are boasting that the money question is settled, money is tight in the great tinancial centres and the financiers of this country arc resorting to extraordinary methods to get enough money into circulation to carry on business. "On the trust question the same line of cleavage appears. The men who threatened a panic if silver was restored, now threaten a panic if the trusts are disturbed, and the trust magnates are casting about for a democratic candidate so much like a Republican that the trusts can rest easy, no matter which candidate is elected. "Reorganization means retreat. and retreat means demoralization and disaster. From the low standpoint ol expedience, ret reat could not he justified. The party polled nearly a million more votes in support of the Chicago and Kansas City platforms than were polled bv Mr. Cleveland, even lie fore his political crimes were exposed. What would he the result today if the standard were put in the hands of men known to he unfaithful to Democratic principles or even in II... I.....rlc ..I' I I... .. II...I ...... 1. ,........ t. me i m i mr> '?i ill' i ?i*li til v 1*1 be faithful? Hut there is a sordidHess about the arguments made 1?v the reorganized which ought to dis gust any well-meaning or high-minded citizen. It is really insulting to a man to intimate that he thinks it i> more important that we get control o! the administration than that wt administer power upon Democratic principles and in the interest of tin people at large. "To say that a right principle must be dropped because t lie party lias suffered defeat in support of the principle is as ridiculous as it is cowardly. The Demaeratic party has been tie feated more often on the tarill' issut than any other issue, and yet that i> the issue that the reorganize is woiib make the paramount one. The trust question was an issue both in IK'.m and in loon, and there is as much rea son for declaring that the electionvindicated private monopolies as t< say that they vindicated the goh standard. In loon, the trust ques tion was more discussed than tin money question and yet the pcoplt who want to drop the money ques tion pretend to feel an interest in tin trust question. Imperialism was tIn paramount issue in loon and over shadowed all others and yet thosi wlio opposed imperialism, would no be willing to drop that issue. "While circumstances detcrmint the emphasis that shoul 1 be placet upon part icular issues no party eat ?/. /.I /!.,.? .. . a ii win i<; a i >a 11 < i< u i it i I^IM ruu> once taken for fear that to maintaii it would be unpopular." Mr. llryan referred to Coverno Cummins as at tlie bead of a prote.s in Iowa "against tin; domination o tlie Republican party I?y the corpora tions," and continued: "lie is going to try to engraft th< Iowa idea on the national Kcpuhlicni platform. While he seems (lestinet to fail in his purpose and while hi may support the Republican ticket no matter how odious the dominutioi of his party by corporations maybe come, let us encourage him for even word that he speaks in favor of taril reform or anti-trust legislation wil have an educational influence. Hi: w-iJfwu'wHfi / i?.Mi .1 *i.. ftords wili go oti makiag convert*, even though he muy recant rather than leave his party. Governor Cummins calls himself a Republican, but by showing sympathy with the people 0 as against the corporations, he has proven that he is much nearer the I Democratic party than the men who ! left us in 181)0, who in 1897 boasted : of the support they had given to the A Republican party and who now make their return to the party contingent upon the party's abandonment of the ; i people's Interest. "Governor Lafollctte of Wisconsou has also shown some restiveness un- j der Republican methods. These are indications of the influence that are at work and encourages us to make our appeal to the awakened con.sci- j ence of the people." A letter was read from C. A. Welsh 1 ' of Ottumwa. secretary of the national; 1 committee, in which he stated that in u the Kansas City platform is to be s fouud a "Democratic expression of . Democratic principles made by Democrats, without corporation dictation 1 and without corporation control." > Among the other speakers was Gen. i James It. Weaver. I The banquet proper was announced , as the gathering of Democrats without j regard to dilferences of opinion as to | party policy, but in the afternoon a j meeting of Kansas City platform ad- i hcrcnts was held at which an organi- i zat ion was formed and a central committee created to work to place in the | next State platform the principles of . the Kansas City platform. Mr. Dry an attended the meeting and endorsed the movement. "The < Democracy of America does not waul ; 'harmony' lie told those present. It < wants the triumph of Democratic principles." MEN TABOOED.

The census bureau Wednesday made the tirst annual statement of cotton production under the perman-j cut organization of that bureau, j The statement is made by William M. Stunt, ehi-T slat istcian of manufacturers. It places the cotton production. lU'cliKivn r it lii\' imv t ?? il?.? tf.-ki ? ? t : 11,078,882 commercial bales equivalent to bales .700 pounds each. The total crop, including linters, was 11.27.7,10.7 commercial bales or 10,027.108 ..00-pounds bales. The difference in the figuers on cummer1 cial bales and 500-pound bales is due 1 to the fact that some of the. commercial bales are round bales, which contain only 2.7.7 pounds, or little more than half the weight of the square bales. 'l'he explanation is made that the figures are the result of personal visits ' on the pari of the census olllee agents j to 22,7.7:1 ginneries. The canvass ex-j tended until March 2Mb. but at that j ' lime there was still unginncd a small quantity of cotton. This is estimated at is 1,20.7 commercial bales, and these are included in the figures given.
