[Special Washington Letter.]
Of all the men who figured in the
Kansas City, convention the one who
made the most capital was Hon. James
D. Richardson of Tennessee, the house
leader of Democrats.
Sydney Smith once said: "lu the
beginning God made round holes and
three cornered holes, and then he made
round people and three cornered peo?
ple to fit in them. But the trouble is,
the round people have got into the
.three cornered holes and the three cor?
nered people into tho round holes, and
nobody fits."
Richardson was au exception to .Syd?
ney's rule at Kansas City. He fitted the
?reat place assigned him by the na?
tional committee, was equal to its ex?
actions, delivered a splendid campaign
speech and presided with perfect tact
and the absolute impartiality of Chief
Justice Marshall. He made many
friends. As a member of the house, I
am proud of his performance, because
the only function permitted to a repre?
sentative in congress at Philadelphia
was when the senatorial cabal -which
ran the Republican convention let Hon.
Sereno E. Payne move to adjourn sine
--die.
Richardson added to Iiis fame at
Kansas City both as au orator and a
?presiding officer. He lias more tact
than any man I ever knew, and he
had an ample field on which to display
it at Kansas City, and he so displayed
it as to please everybody. 1 congratu?
late my Brother Richardson most
heartily.
The Man With the Hump.
There isn't a man in America who
says more good Things than Alfred
Henry Lewis, editor of The Verdict. I
doubt if a man with a finer or larger
vocabulary ever wrote for any newspa?
per published in our vernacular. Not
long since he dished up the McKinley
administration in the following jam up
fashion:
President McKinley has occupied the White
House a little more than three years. For the
same period of time the government L'as been run
by the White House syndicate. The humpbacked
taxpayer-brother to the man wich the hoe-can
now take <?<^'?: and ascertain h;< condition.
Three years of McK??eyisrn ??ave given this pa?
tient man with a hump a government that costs
about $250,003 an ??our, nearly $0,000,000 a day.
more than ?10.000,000 a week, a!mo>t $150,000.000
a month, in thc neighborhood of $2,000,000.000 a
year, and yet the patient man with eye- like an
ox is not wholly satisfied:
Reckless Expansion.
Jingoes say that we are opposed to
expansion and call us little Americans.
The name is an insult, and the charge
that we are opposed to expansion is a
lie. There is no use mincing words or
being mealy mouthed about the charge.
It Ls a lie made of whole cloth and
made willfully, deliberately, premedi?
tatedly and with mallee aforethought.
I take it that all Americans arc expan?
sionists provided the expansion is on
right lines, in the right direction and
will strengthen our institutions and
not weaken them.
But a man does not have to be a fool
necessarily in order to be an expan?
sionist. Because he desires to see his
country grow in a healthy manner he
does not have io be in favor of reach?
ing out indiscriminately in all direc?
tions and taking in all countries and
all peoples: because a man eats wheat
bread is no reason why he should oat
arsenic: because beef does him good is
no reason why he should gorge himself
on rough on rats: because clear spring
water slakes hi* thirst is no reason
why he should rill up on aqua fortis.
Rational people want to expand on
rational lines. Thomas Jefferson's
greatest aer was ia making th" Louisi?
ana purchase. Tha? was the most
profitable and stupendous transaction
in real est?t.- proposed "ii this earth
since the devi! rock th-- Saviour to thc
top of a high mountain and offered
him the dominion of the world io fall
down and worship him. Thai one act
alone "would have placed Jefferson in
the ranks ..!' ih-- immortals ?-ven if he
had never written the Declaration of
Independence or Virginia's statute for
religions freedom ?>r founded the TIM
versity of Virginia.

Lonis Napoleon and Roosevelt.
Tho old proverb, "Grcai minds run in
the same channel." finds a new and
startling vindication in J he sameness
of thought and language of a famous
mot by Louis Napoleon and a recent ut?
terance by Colonel Theodore Roosevelt.
When "thc imperial nephew of his
uncle." or "Napoleon the Little," as
Victor 'Hugo contemptuously dubbed
him. was endeavoring to justify ids
i betrayal and murder of 'the sec
j French republic and his establishn:
I of the second French empire, he
emnly and falsely denied that the
stoml empire meant war. bur epigr
j matieally and vehemently exclaiu
j "The empire is peace!*'
j Colonel Roosevelt is uot only hot
i voluminous writer and voluble spca!
; hut is also an omnivorous reader.
Whether during any of his iucursi
into history and literature he ever r
Louis Napoleon's famous speech to
chamber ol' commerce of Bordea
Oct. 0, 1S*52-the speech containing
imperial maxim just quoted-I do
j know: btu. if lie never perused t
j remarkable oration, he. by a st rai
eoneateua?ion of events and mer
processes, performed the most aston
tng piece <>f paralleling both Thou;
i and expression to be found in the
nals of oratory.
In his speech before the Natioi
1 League of Republican Clubs Colo:
j Roosevelt earnestly enjoins his coi
j trymen to ..remember that expansi
j does not briu.tr war: it ultimate
! brings peace.**
j "The empire is peace!*' assev^ra;
the dreaming, scheming, ambitious s
of Hortense. "Expansion ultimat<
brings peace!" echoes the dreamh
scheming, ambitious governor-coloi
of New York.
Two lovely berries, molded on o
stem, the stem of imperialism: tv,
statesmen reveling in iridesee
dreams of peace-peace to he obtain
by a quantum sufficit of throat ct
ting and bloodletting-the identic
sort of peace which reigned in Wi
saw on a memorable occasion ai
which "damned to everlasting fain
i the men who secured it by sword ai
lire.
Thc Kmpire I* Blood.
Now, be it remembered that I am n
j accusing Colonel Roosevelt of plagia
I izing from Napoleon III. I would n<
even in the estimation of a hair, (3
I tract from his just fame, hut one
two things is true-either he had re;
Louis Napoleon's Bordeaux speech ai
boldly appropriated or unconscious
assimilated both his ideas and his la
guage or the exigencies of the ea:
compelled Colonel Roosevelt to use tl
same argument in favor of his ir
j perialism as the French emperor us(
in defense of his imperialism.
I like epigrams. "The empire
peace*" is a splendid, sonorous, strikii:
sentence, lt appeals to The imagin:
tion. it soothes the troubled spirit, bi
it was a lie when uttered by the wi!
Frenchman. It is a lie today, and
never can be the truth.
The entire history of Louis Nap?
j leon's tawdry, tinsel empire demoi
j strates the utter falseness and hollov
ness of his terse epigram. "The empii
I is peace." lt began in blood: it flou:
j ished in blood: it perished in blooc
The coup d'etat, which gave it birtl
was one of the bloodiest and most moi
strous crimes recorded in the liles <j
time and brought death, imprisonmer
I and exile to nearly every Frenchma
of that generation at all worthy of r?
membrance.
Instead of bringing peace to Franc
the empire brought the unpreccdentei
j humiliation of Metz and the awful ca
? tastrophe of Sedan, ll sent Louis Na
j poleon himself to die an exile at Chis
I elhurst and his son to die in South Ai
j rica, a soldier of fortune, fighting sav
; age Zulus under the cross of Si. Georg?
? in the service of that country whiel
j had caged the great Napoleon like :
j savage beast upon the sullen rock o
] St. Helena.
i That's the sort of peace which Loni:
J Napoleon's empire brought to France.
Tbe Money Question.
i We stand today on the money quos
j tion precisely where wo stood foul
{ years ago. Truth does not change t<
falsehood in four short years. Th(
men who wrote the Chicago platforn
had the courage of their convictions
and they have had no reason ti? change
their conclusions since.
Consequently at Kansas-City we re
adopted, not merely reaffirmed, but re
adopted, the financial plank of*th?.
Chicago platform in all its integrity
and all its force, in spite of all ea joh
lugs, all threatenings and all tempta?
tions to do otherwise. From the bot?
tom of my heart 1 rejoice that we did
so. for if we were right then '.\?- are
right now.
Individually I have no doubt what?
ever that, notwithstanding the recent
unfriendly congressional legislation,
j not only America, but iii" whole world,
will soon return LO bimetallism under
an impulse of self preservation so
strong that it cannot be resisted.
The fact thar the per capita volume
of circulation has increased in the last
three years grows oui of the accident
that the balance of trade has been
overwhel. ingly ir: our favor, which
happy condition was and is purely
! the result of the failure of crops i?i
I India an-i of the abundance here.
Fndcr normal conditions, ?oed crops
in th.- old world and good crops at
I hone, the balance of trail" will. as in
J the past, bc against ;:s. .-ned as soon
i as that happens the drain Of gold vi!!
j begin. and contractions will follow.
I While the ?:>er:Ocra?ie party has not
j ?-hanged its position since TS:?;, the Re?
publican party has chanced its posi
I tion radically- In !VK it d dar ed for
! deiphia s hon time {v?, ?i pronom:.!
j for ti'.- gold si:-.hird in all its b:dd
j n.-ss and ha.!;:..>>. Not only that.
the latest R. publican plat f..: hi states
what is positively untrue whor.-in it
j reaffirms i:^ allegiance re the -?.!.:
j it never had declared tor the a?'H
standard
j As a matter of !'::<?. ;h>' administra
: tion never made an honest effort io
secure international bimetallism. '?"ho
Wolcott commission that was gala
! ranting over Europe would have se?
cured internat ional bine ta-Hisra : ii
j had not been hamstrung by i ?ie admin
j istration. They were progressing with
amazing rapidity in thal <:?'< <?'?' i"U and
had gained the consent ol the Bank ol
England when Lyman .!. Cage, th*;
secretary, of the treasury, destroyed
their good works by ?MI interview de?
claring that neither the president nor
the people of thc United States wanted
bimetallism.
The financial bill passed by this con?
gress is the most monstrous measure
ever placed on the statute books. It
is sometimes called the Overstreet bill,
but it should be called the "Atlantic
City bill," because it was concocted
? there in vacation by a coterie of Re?
publican magnates in secret conclave.
In my mimi Atlantic City is the poor?
est place in America to ascertain the
settled sober sense or conviction of the
American people.
That bill not only established the
gold standard, which the Republican
party never promised, but it retired
the greenbacks, and let me say that if
the Republican party had promised to
retire the greenbacks there never
would have been a Republican con?
gress io enact such a law, and there
would not have been a Republican
president to sign such a measure.
I will not argue the greenback ques?
tion. I have simply this to say: There
never has been a war waged by our
country in which the greenback did
not give tis the victory, and if the
greenbacks were good enough money
in the civil war to induce men to leave
their homes, their wives and little
children to risk their lives on a thou?
sand battlefields in defense of their
country, then it ought to be good
enough mone)' to pay gentlemen who
make their living by reclining in the
shade ol" Wall street, clipping gold
coupons off coin bonds. If the green?
backs are not good money, then, as a
matter of common honesty, we owe it
to the old soldiers to pass a law even
at this late day paying them the dif?
ference between gold and greenbacks
from 1S61 to 1S65.
R?publicain* Have Changed.
By that Atlantic City bill congress
abdicated the paramount function of
government, the money making func?
tion, ami turned it over to an associa?
tion of national bankers, a function
I too vasi and too dangerous to be given
j to any citizen or corporation. That
j bill broadens the money question and
! puts ii on the high plane on which
j Andrew Jackson fought Nicholas Bid
.; die and tho old Bank of the United
j States, and. as he conquered in the
thirties, so will we conquer under the
leadership of the great Nebraskan.
I repeat that while we maintain our
position of 389(1 in favor of the free
and unlimited coinage of gold and sil?
ver at the historic ratio of Ki to 1 with?
out waiting for the consent of any oth?
er nation on earth, the Republicans
have changed theirs and changed it
radically.
I do not have to make assertions or
quote Democrats to show that we are
right on the money question. I will
quote yon a Republican of thc highest
degree. Certainly Republicans ought
to believe each other, for nobody else
will believe them.
My Republican witness says: "I am
for the largest use of sliver in the cur
! rency of this country. I would not
; dishonor ir. I would give li equal
! crcd.it and honor with geld. I would
j make no discrimination. 1 would util
j ize both metals as money and discredit
i neither. I want th . double standard.*''
I These be potent words. They were
; fitly spoken and are like apples of gold
i in pictures of silver. They are ?-lear
? and unmistakable in their meaning,
j Now. my Republican friends, you who
j are engagtitl in the condemned business
i of worshiping the gobion calf, what
j orator and statesmau do you suppose
j mai'.e that forcible declaration in fa?
vor of silver which ! have just quoted?
; lt wasn't Silver Dick Bland-God bless
j him! ir wasn't William J. Bryan, the
j peerless "leader of the Democratic
j hosts, if was no Democrat, no Popu
j list. If WM s a mau whom you delight
? to honor. Don't all fall off your seats
J in a iif ot* apoplexy when I tell you
j his name, lt was the head man of the
j Republican pie counter. William Mc
j Kinley, president of the United States,
j and now running for re-election on a
I gold standard platform after signing a
j gold standard bill. He is the man who
j sahl it. Me said it on the floor of the
I American congress. It is so printed in
The Record. You can't deny it. He
can't deny it. Those words were spo?
ken by William McKinley, your idol,
with front of brass ami feet of clay,
spoken by him while he was yet free
and before he h.ad fallen under the
malign influence of Mark Uanna and
his foul crew of political buccaneers.
What's more. McKinley in addition to
speaking in favor of silver voled for
it and voted for ii repeatedly. Mc
voted for thc original Bland silver
bill, which w:is a bil! for the free and
unlimited coinage of gold and silver
at b* !.> !. Me v..ted for the Bland
?'ill with thc Allison amendments, and
when Rutherfraud B. Hayes vetoed
the Bland-Allison biil William McKin?

veto, which was the noblest act of his
public career;
