McKinley's Moses Arises In New Hampshire. i ?BEE?O IS HIS APT NAME, "Alexander, Caesar, Napoleon and McKinley." IMPERIALISM: SWALLOWED WHOLE. Position of the Democratic Party Regarding: the Supreme Court. Facts Established by Natural His? tory- bryan's War Ilecord-Why . the Democratic Candidate Did >'o* Go to Cuha. (Special Washington Letter.] Ah Bible readers are aware of the fact that at least as long ago as the Saviours birth there were wiso men in the east. Indeed, back of that was .King Solomon, famous for his wisdom. Others, both before him and since, might be mentioned, but it would be a .work of supererogation. But a ' new .wise man has arisen suddenly in New Hampshire whom I wish to introduce to my readers as the real thing. As the Eepublicans in congress arc all broken up and are busily and angrily seeking i a Moses io lead them out of tho wilder? ness into which the sugar trust and j cigar trust led them on the Porto Rican ! tariff biil, I volunteer my services "free j gratis for nothing"' to announce io i them the glad tidings. "Eureka!" 1 ! have found him-their Moses, of whom j they are in such sore need. His name j is J. Alonzo Greene: his habitat Moul- j tonkoro, in the chi Granite State. lie ; is a stem winder, and no mistake. On the 2d day of February. A. D. ! 1000, just after William J. Bryan had j finished his New England tour. Mr. j Greene delivered a speech In the city of i Concord, the place: where Senators j Gallingor and Chandler had their his- ! torie Quarrel last summer, and where j they came near to contributing to the gayety cf nations and the prestige of the God and moral;:;.- party by a game of fisticuffs. Nobody eise lian hering after the colossal" job cf answering Bryan Mr. Greene tackled i: himself, for on the front page of the pamphlet containing his speech is this legend, printed in characters so large that he who runs may read: "Speech of J. Alonzo Greene of Moultonboro, X. H., in reply to Colonel Wm. J. Bryon."7 A Kepnb'.k'-r. ?.?cscs. One day in the Fifty-third congress Jerry Simpson arose and very gravely said: "Mr. Speaker there seems to be ? some question as to who killed the Car? lisle bond bill. Republicans deny doing it. So do the Democrats. To remove ail doubt about i:. I openly confess now and here that i did it. I assume the responsibility." So with Mr. Greene. He did it. Ile replied to Bryan. He says so himself. He may hr.ve had a call to do ir. cr he may have thought as millions of others think, that the fifty odd Republican United Sta* es se::::tors and one hun? dred and ninety odd Republican repre? sentatives in congress couldn't .do it. So Mr. Greene assumed the patriotic duty cf goiag forth ta do battle ajrainst the redoubtable William Jennings: anti bearing ale!": the star spangled banner made of his wife's "blue handker? chiefs, red shawl and white petticoat.*' he steed, like Horatius at the bridge. Leonidas at Thermopylae, and Davy Crockett at the Alamo, sud delivered his speech. "Mr. Greene or somebody else sent me two copies, for which I am profoundly grateful. 'Tis true that 1 read only one. but it a Tord ed me more amusement than anything I have read since i first perused Mark Twain's side splitting story of "The Jumping Frog of Calaveras County." Yes. 1 read ii. as will more fully appear fur? ther along in this letter. Mr. Greene is evidently a man of vast information. This he demonstrates by staling that Governor Altgeld is frequently men? tioned as a Democratic nominee for vice president. Now 1 do not believe that anybody ever mentioned Altgeld for vice president. If mentioned at all. it was by Republicans: but LVmocrats are too well in:' >rmed net to know that the constitution bars AI:geld fron- the vice presidency hy reason el" his birth in a foreign land. Met satlshed v ii:; furnishing us that chun!: el' history. Mr. Greene cansos us to gasp for breath hy stating that Jefferson "purchased from Frauce in 1S03 all that great tract "f rand west of the lower Mississippi and Missouri rivers." Now, it that was all that Jef? ferson purchased how tho deuce did we get hold cf ali that large, rieh body of land vost <?:" th*- upper Mississippi and east of the Missouri, including most cf Missouri, all ot" Iowa, most of Minnesota. North and South Dakota? Evidently before Brotl or Greene again assumes to know it all and proceeds to make any more replies to Bryan or anybody els.- he ow? s it to a suffer? ing world to mi' up on the geography of his country unless he intends i.< have his speeches regarded as works ot the imagination-which they -ire. T!ie St;i>r?-T3ie Conrt. Wo are further astonished by Mr. greene's statement that "the combi? nation party." as ho denominates the opponents of McHannaism. is ia favor of "'a revolution of th" constitution by the suppression of the supreme court!" That's an absurd falsehood. He cannot produce the utterance of a representative Democrat. Populist or Tree Silverite in favor of "suppressing the supreme court" He can hud many wh) are in favor of reorganizing it and not a few who think that Mr. Justice Shiras disgraced .himself and the court *mm^^mmmmmmmmmm?mm?mmmmmmmmmmtmmamm^mmmmm?m by his sudden and miraculous jin somersault on the income tax A great many good Americans v like to know, don't you know, wi changed, what motive impelled But how dares Mr. Greene or any ( Republican make mouths at any for wanting to reorganize thc sup; court? How comos it that that bunal is so sacred to them now? E intelligent man knows that it is about GO years since the Republi enlarged, reorganized and packed packed is the word-packed the preme court iu order to secure decision which they wanted in legal tender cases? In order ti that, they had to reverse a deci made a few months before in the ' same cases. What's sauce for the goose is si for the gander, if it was right President Grant and a Republ j congress to do that thing GO years how csu it be wrong for Presh Bryan and a Democratic congress t< it next year? Brother Greene sh< rub up on the history of the Repul an party and not stultify himself insult the intelligence of the com by lambasting Democrats for en taming a desire to perform an ac; hallowed by the example of Repul ans-conspicuous Republicans at tl Mr. Greene overtaxes the eredu of mankind by saying that G over Altgeld "raised the blood red bani bearing ir? letters of funereal black traitorous motto, 'Within the law we may. but in spite of the law if musti* Of course there is not ? syllable of truth in the statement : it only shows to what forbidden r disreputable methods Republicans driven in the vain endeavor to bois up cn unrighteous cause. Again we have from Mr. Greene 1 monstrous lie: "He*'~meaiimg Brya ..He has never denied but what he v jives his 'sinew of '.var from 1 silver mine owners." That purlieu lie was never told before. Greene servos all the credit of originality; 1 the charge was made in 1890 by prominent Republican that Bryan v, paid by silver mine owners, and w promptly denied by him. and ti::1 pro incnt Republ:- .n took back the cha: declaring in his apology that "wk Bryan states a fact it is true.

Now comes Brother Greene and goes further than 1 did by linking William McKinley's antue with that infamous trio of bloody tyrants and citing them as models to be imi? tated. Personal History. Now will the reader go back and re j read that extract from Mr. Greene's j wonderful speech? Ile makes it au offense in poor Colonel Bryan that he was "mewling and puking in his nurse's arms" while Brother McKin? ley was fighting the battles ot his country! Alas and alack' Could Bryan help that? Isn't it the nature of babies to "puke and mewl" in their nurse's arms? Didn't even Alexander. Caesar, Napoleon and McKinley do that? In? deed, didn't Mr. Greene perform that universal caper himself once upon a time? I have no doubt that Bryan was thus engaged when Mr. McKinley volunteered hi 1SG1. for Bryan was born in 1800. Does Mr. Greene think that Bryan ought to have been fighting instead of "mewling and puking in his nurse's arms" in ISOl? How could he lix the day of his nativity? A witty Irishman once said that he could have been born in America just as well as ia Ireland if he had so chosen? But Bryan was not so fortunately situated. Was Mr. Greene? Docs Mr. Greene doubt that Bryan would have been a soldier during the civil war had he been old enough? Didn't he offer his services to McKinley among the very first at the outbreak of the Spanish war? Didn't McKinley ignore the tender for petty political reasons? And didn't Bryan raise a regiment and go to the war anyway? Where was Mr. Greene then? His picture on the back of his reply to Bryan looks as though he is not past the military age. Mr. Greene appears to be woefully weak in geography. He informs a startled world that McKinley risked his life for his country before '"Bryan's name was ever heard outside the val? ley of the Platte." That's a mistake ! growing out of Mr. Greene's disregard for the truth of iiistory and his in? ordinate desire to construct a sonorous sentence for the delectation of New Hampshire Republicans. As a matter of fact Bryna vas born and reared in Illinois, and was never in the Platte valley till about "ivs; or 1SS7. This may surprise Mr. Greene. Judging by his speech, most any morsel of in? formation would surpris^ him. Fur? thermore, about the time McKinley was enlisting Bryan vas learning t-> walk. : Aplin, vc aro told, cont rary to all the . facts in the easo. that ."McKinley gave j his country tile best protective tarin hiv it ever enjoyed while Colonel lily? an vas mastering lav and oratory in the educational institutions of Nebras? ka." Does n<t Mr. Greene know thai Bryan never attended a Nebraska edu? cational institution a dav in his life: O.u the contrary, he was a graduate of one of tho best colleges in Illinois and a successful practicing lawyer and a married man before his eyes ever be? held Nebraska. That he mastered lav and oratory somewhere is clear, for ir is admitted by all intelligent persons that he is the greatest living orator, and as he has refused an offer of ?20. 000 per annum for his services as a ! lawyer he must be fairly '.veli up in his profession. bryan's 3Ii!itnry Itv;- ;rC But Mr. Greene uttered a gross and deliberate slander when he said that "Colonel Bryan found i: convenient and expedient to relieve the army of his presence * upon reaching Florida." : Voltaire's motto. "Keep on lying and j si.me of it viii stick." appears to have been adopted by Mr. Greene as his own ' theory. Colonel Bryan went, in com- \ maud of his regiment, t<* Florida in I tho summer of 1S0S, ly orders <: thc var department. William McKinley j being ex on*icio commander in chief. By orders !:e remained in Florida till the treaty of peace between tho United S;;;os and Spain vas signed m Paris, and then resigned. Mr. Greene must have known these facts when he mad : his speech. He did know them, and on ' a cold cellar he deliberately misstated ; them. Ile also knew that Colonel Bryan j was kept by Cae McKinley administra- ' tion in cami) in Florida lest if he got to Cuba he might achieve some iv.-is ure of military glory. Thereby dimin? ishing still further William Melvin- ' ley's chances of succeeding himself. When Bryan resigned, the Spanish war liad really been over for five or six months and nobody save a few Itepub- ' Hean jobbers near the throne und in ; the inner circle of McHannaites dream- | ed there would he any Philippine var. 1 The next time good Mr. Greene makes j \ a speech won't he please inform a. palpitating world why General Nelsen ; . A. Miles- the most distinguished Amt rican soldier now living-a lifelong . ; Republican- v.as no: permitted to go ! to Cuba and conduct our campaign j there: For fear Mr. Greene viii be '. bashful about answering, i viii an? swer myself: Miles vas kept out cf j Cuba because the McKinley adinims ? traticn knew the; he was soldier and j ? that if he vere given a chance he i would vin renown enough to enable: j him to beat Melvin!ey ont of a nomina ' ?ion for president, whereas nobody had the slightest idea thai General Sha fier would ever d ? anything any . where to make him dangerous. Mr. Greene wi!! observe that General Nelson A. Miles. Republican senior , major general of ike regular army, and Colonel William J. Bryan. Democratic colonel of Nebraska volunteers, vere both kept out cf Cuba for tue same reason-Miles for fear he'd gobble the Republican presidential nomination, and Bryan for fear would defeat McKinley at tho p< hs in 1000.
