I AI HKNS. S. <., .NOV. 1 I. 1900. The Passing or Bryan* "Four years more of McKinley'' is the verdict. Al the end of ibis period we will bear no more of Bryan. The Issues of (be two las! campaigns will have been SOttlcd New questions will have arisen and the next election will turn upon tbem. New men will come with new moasuros. Tin- American people know little or nothing of the Is sues of other Governments than our own and Brita'n, Both are constitut ional governments, both are governed by the people, the Queen in I'.ngland being a mere figure head. As a rule in both governments all oloctlons have turned upon questions growing out of the coustiution. Over a century ago JelTerson's construction pro vailed over Hamilton's and the Democrats pre vai "d. And the democrats have never won except upon .lellerson's tariff views and his strict construction view as against latltudinarianistn ami camping out-side the constitution of Hamilton ami 8cward, When we go back to Ii ist principles and light it out on the tar ill we will win and the Democrats b'ing back the ship of State within the breakers. Who and What Did II.' Crokor says "Froo Silver " Some say "Hen Tillman" did it. McKinley says the ''Patriotism" of the country did i;. Hanna ntys the "full dinner plate" Others put it on "populism" and others on "anti-expansion." But TlIK ADVEltTISKM puts it where it he longs -the 1 'commercial spirits", the "everlasting trusts", the "almighty dollar ", the "money devil" of Henry Wattorson. Since the Tidal Wave the New Or leans Tribune requested leading Demo crats to give their views. Her > is from Congressman Catchlngs, of Mississippi, answered among a volume of others. His views are along the line of the Democratic fathers and when we get back to thier lighting lines wo are mighty nigh the enemy's baggage train: "Drop free silver, drop fusionism, drop the cry of government by injunc tion, drop the cry of imperal'sm and militarism, drop all discussion about the Philippines until peace has been restored: drop appeals to the passions and prejudices of the idle and discon tented. Review the fundamental ques tion of taxation, teach the Democratic doctrine that people cannot be made rich by taxing them: assail the favorit ism and wrongs of a high protective tarlIT, Btand for the control of trusts and combines by methods, not oppres sive; demand enlargement of the [low ers of the Inter-state commerce com mission ami the liberal Improvements of harbors, and insist on local self-gov ernment, and let the next Presidential candidate remain at home during the campaign " * * We had the lirst suggestion of an Arctic department In the weather cabi net hist Friday morning. .lack Frost got in his fine work and lee was a quarter inch thick-.

Uryan acted decently and sent the following telegram to BUI McKinley. Lincoln, Nob., Nov. 8,?W. J. Bryan forwarded tho following telegram at noon to-day to 1'resident YlcKinloy: Hon. Win. McKinley, President of the United States: At the close id another presidential campaign it i> my lot to congratu ate von upon a second victory. \v. j. Bryan. and many of us may be gay and happy yet. All Lost. Bryan has the solid South to stand on. There is one consolation which Is that, the n Southern States is a tough oustomer In this little arrangment. The Yankees can't sqee/.i us without getting on their own toes.The Filipinos and Porto Rico may bi squeezed, but we may not wince. While one South ern household contributes to pluto cracy, twenty at the North pay their score. * # M Tho "Bond" Constitutional Amend ment, overwhelmingly voted for, they now say will not effect Its intention the Legislature having botched the business as the law reads, There Is a disposition to lay the blunder at the door of an engrossing clerk, the en grossing committee and a Solicitor, but tho author of the bill and member In charge of it ought to be held responsi ble- Tho cities Involved will count it one of tho blunders ranking with mis demeanors. ?*# Rev. Sam P, Jones says he is sorry for the Democrats and thinks David B. Hill, Of Now York, Should be run next, time. As a rule the fellow that comes Koking around with his sympathy gets nocked down. Sam's (doth is all that will excuse him, but he had best be careful. ? * * An old colored man dropped his wal lot On Thursday last near M inter's store and went over to the OH Mill. He turning he found the wallet, a tobacco bag, and his $10 00 bill safe inside and was the happiest darkoy seen around bore for many a day. * ? ? Too Lato and too Early, They aro talking of re-organizlng the Democratic party. William Jennings, a first cousin of Bryan, Is elected Govornor of Florida and Bryan will go to Tallahassee to soo him Inaugurated in January. Bryan denies that ho will become a preacher. Hanna is hunting the man who sug gested him for tho Presidency four years hence and threatens him with death. It was a mess of pottagO that won in tho early times. It is now "the full d'nner pail." The Commissioners of the Powers aro making headway with the Chinese troubles.
