Bryan's Masterly Speech es and Their Effect. i POWEEF?L CAMPAIGNING. Secretary Hay as a Hauler Down of the American Flag. TEDDY IS THE WHOLE THING. Altgeld Portray?, the Braggart Ia Iiis Trae Colors-Strong- Possibility That the D?moerafo May Carry Ohio-Philippine Policy of the Ad? ministration - Different Kinds of Expansion. [Special Washington Letter.] In prize ring parlance Bryan is a wonder. He succeeded in making a speech at Indianapolis against which even the most bitter Republicans have nothing to say except that he ought to have discussed IG to 1 instead of imperial? ism, which the Kansas City convention declared to be "the paramount issue." What a contrast all this forms to the howl of ribald execration with which his wondrous speech at Chicago in 1896 was received! Truly Bryan is to be congratulated on having conquered the good opinion of his enemies. Sure as a gun is made of iron the white man is mighty uncertain. It grieves me sorely to state it. but it now appears that the theory embodied in the presidential questions propound? ed at a banquet down south at 2 o'clock in the morning-"Who will haul down the American Hag? Men of Dix- j ie. will you haul it down?'*-is an ad? justable theory made to fit circum- j stances. This discovery causes me to j somewhat lose faith in human nature. For many moons rautankerous Repub? licans have at long range denounced as traitors ali who would not subscribe to the idiotic doctrine that under no cir? cumstances whatsoever should we puii our flag down from any place where .we had floated it for any reason. Such jabber as they got off was not pleasant to hear cr easy to bear. Hanlin;; Down the Flag:. BUT, mirabile dictu! now, after all this boasting and cavorting around, after all this playing of the Pharisee, Colonel John Hay. secretary of state, gives away to Johnnie Bull a strip of Alaska 20 miles wide and over 100 miles long! Didn't our flag float over that strip of auriferous soil? Hadn't it floated there triumphantly since 1SG7. when Andrew Johnson and Wil? liam H. Seward added Alaska to our possessions? And in order to make Mr. Bull this valuable present, will it not be necessary to haul Old Glory down? Isn't this the swiftest and most thorough expose of rank hypocrisy in modem times? Colonel Hay is one of the most amia? ble of mortals. He is a scholar v.ud writ? er of rare ability. His "Pike County Ballads" are famous, and his "Life of Abraham Lincoln" is a standard work, but I fear that Colonel Hay's residence at the court of St. James has given a bias to his thoughts and sentiments in favor of Mr. Bull which is detrimen? tal to his country. If Colonel Hay doesn't quit coquetting with John, his name is not likely to blossom in the dust. The Hay-Pauncefote treat}* was a nauseating dose for the American people. When they discover that the colonel has presented Mr. Bull with a valuable strip of gold bearing land sev? eral times as large as Rhode Island, they are quite likely to make it un? pleasant for the amiable Colonel Hay. Teddy Is lt. Colonel Teddy is II He has been It ever since lie delivered that St. Paul harangue. Ky this time it has perhaps percolated through his noddle that it is dangerous for the occupant of a glass bouse to throw stones. Ex-Governor John Peter Altgeld in that Toledo speech to which I referred in my last letter says: Who. then, is this man. and what is his history? Personalities are offensive, and 1 will not indulge ! in t.':<.m. But surely, when we are thus brutally i assault ei. we may a>k who it is that is berating us. I will notice only a U ;v of the incidents of j his pub?e career, which throw light ca the que?- 1 tion of his sincerity and discretion.

What's more. Colonel Roose : velt richly deserved the excoriation. Politic? In Ohio. I have been in Ohio lately, giving political joint lectures at Chanta uquas ! with my Republican friends. Hon. Jon? athan Prentiss Dolliver of Iowa and Charles B. Landis of Indiana, and, while I am neither a prophet nor the son of a prophet, 1 should not be at all surprised to see Bryan get the electoral vote of Ohio and to see a majority of the Ohio delegation in congress Demo? cratic. Now, mark you. I am not claim? ing Ohio, but 1 am stating that from close observation, from conversations with all manner and condition of peo? ple, my conclusion is that Democrats have the best chance to bag Ohio that j they have had since Franklin Pierce i mopped up the earth with General j Winfield Scott in LSGC. The Jones vote added to the McLean vote would give the state to the Demo i crats by some 50,000. and that's pre? cisely the thing which makes all things uncertain and which keeps everybody jumping. Where will the Jones vote be found this time? is the question that gives Mark Hanna trouble, for Mark knows-none better-that if it once gets orated about that Ohio is a doubt? ful state that fact alone will defeat Mark. At Lancaster Colonel Davidson and I had what many said was the greatest crowd assembled in Ohio at a political function since tito log cabin, coon? skin, hard cider campaign or" 1S40. Excitement was intense, which bodes good for the Democrats. Human Nature the Same Every? where. Napoleon once said. "Scratch a Rus? sian, and you will find a Tartar." and it really appears that if you scratch j the average American citizen you will i strike a savage. For years a good many good people in highly respectable I communities, laying the flattering unc I tion to their souls that they are better than the re<t of us, have had a great deal to say about the lynchings in the south and west and have intimated very broadly that we. the denizens of those regions, were lapsing into bar? barism. I believe they have even gone so far as to organize an antilynching society in Boston, the undisputed hub of the universe. The intention of this amiable society is to educate the peo? ple of the south and west into such a beatific state of mind that they will cease to lynch outrageou imiuals. I have no doubt that the intentions cf these Bostonese reformers are good, but it is said that hades is paved with good intentions. I once read of :i little girl who put some obstacle in the way of a philosopher who was always star gazing. He fell over it and barked his shins and angrily inquired why she did it. She innocently replied. "To make you observe the beauties closer at band.*' During the Greek war fer independ? ence John Randolph of Roanoke visit? ed an aristocratic lady neighbor of his and found her busily engaged making clothing for the naked Greeks. When he started to leave, the front yard was full of half naked pickaninnies. Point? ing his long, bony forefinger at them, he shrieked to his hostess. "Madam, the Greeks are at your door!" I com? mand these two anecdotes to the Bos? tonese antilynchers and would suggest to them that they send an agent forth? with to Akron, O.. a Republican city in a Republican state, tho state of the president, of Hanna, Grosvenor and Foraker and many other apostles of the true, the beautiful and the good. Out there the other day they had tho '?vorst riot which has taken place since the Cincinnati riot some years ago. Strang?- to say. this rioting, bloodshed, arson and murder grew out of the fact that a negro brute had criminally as? saulted a white girl. Now, mirabile dicta! this is the very same crime for which southerners lynch men. All of which, goes to show that human nature is the same in Ohio as in Mississippi, and the only way the society can stop these lynchings is by devising a way to stop tin- commission of these crimes for which men are nev,- lynchet?. I am not an advocate of lynch law far from it-but I will undertake to say without the fear of successful con? tradiction that under the same provo? cation as that under which southern people lynch brutal outlaws and under which the Akron mob was operating a ./aching can bc pulled off with great .-.I::: within siuht of tin- headquarters if ike Boston Antilynching society, and I would not ?i" :?? all surprised i?' some :f the members of ?!:" society would a!:" a han-i :? the rope; ;*<?:.. after alt hey are only human, and Mark Twain ?avs we ita ve a heap <-f human na he pole.

In discussing the policy < f the pr?vi? ent toward the Philippine Islanders Congressman Williams rang the bell ? every shot. In concluding his speech j he said: But in answ?r tr? all these allegations we are ' met with the very eloquent hut empty phrase, i "Who will i>;>'] down the flag?" I answer, the American government, whenever iii honor and j priory require i:. but no other power on earth shall ! ever ?'au! it C ?wm Our government has always j pulled it dow?, fr-.rn places where it <!i<i not be I lons, lt pulled it i!uv,n in Mexico, in Canada, j and. if we observe our sacred pledge, we will iiaul I it down in Cuba whenever its people desire it. j We had better haul it down in Cuba now than j have it wave over that fair island as the banner I of larceny and corruption. 1 would rather see it i p;c down in honor than up in dishonor; down as I the emblem of liberty than up us thc emblem of ? despotism. Our fla?; should never remain in any land where the constitution can never go and American liberty can never dwclL 1 would rather have it snatched from its mast a thousand times than see its sacred folds unfurled to the breeze as the new banner of American imperialism, thc fu? neral signal of the republic. Who will pull down thc fla?? I ask: Who will pull down the Declara:ion of Independence? Who will pull down the constitution; The sad echo comes from the White House. William, the con? queror, he will pull them down. He lias already torn from their sacred patres the sublime senti? ments Of liberty and freedom and written in their 6tead, in letters of blood, the bitter words ci t ryan ny and oppression. Would to God the Republican party of today contained within its ranks another Lincoln, to check it in its downward course of criminal ag? gression and restore it to the sacred precincts of human liberty it once enjoyed. But the question is frequently asked by gentle? men on the other ?ide. How can the Democrats oppose the annexation of those islands when Jef? ferson, their great founder, was such an expan? sionist? Jefferson was an expansionist, but not an imperialist. Jefferson's expansion consisted in acquiring territory here on this hemisphere, then in the possession of a foreign power, thereby re? moving from our very doors a European colony whose presence here made war more threatening and defense more difficult. McKinley's expansion gives us territory 10.000 miles from this capital and carries tis right into the broils and entanglements of all the warring powers of Europe. Jefferson's expansion removed tho foreign flag from our shores, while McKinley's expansion carries our flag into a foreign land. Jefferson's expansion strengthened our fortifica? tions and made it easier to defend cur territory than before, while McKinley's expansion weakens our fortifications and makes our national defense more difficult and expensive. Jefferson acquired territory with a population of one to every 25 square miles, with a climate adapted to cur peo? ple and suitable for American homes, while Mc? Kinley is trying to acquire territory with a popu? lation of over 70 to the square mile, with a cli? mate entirely unfit fer our people and never in? tended for American homes. Jefferson acquired territory to become future states of the republic, inhabited by American citizens, while McKinley is acquiring territory to become colonies of the i United States, inhabited by subjects and not citi- j zens. Jefferson expanded the republic with our ! territory, while McKinley is expanding our terri- j tory without the republic Jefferson's expansion carried to the inhabitants i of ibo new territoty the glad message of peace and constitutional liberty, while McKinley's expansion carries to the inhabitants of the new territory tlie j sad message of death and despotism. No liberty, ? no free-dom. no happiness! Jefferson's annexation gave the inhabitants of tho ceded territory rep? resentation with taxation and a government with the consent ct the governed. McKinley's annexa? tion gives to the inhabitants of tho new territory taxation without representation and government without the consent of the governed. Jefferson's expansion was republicanism; McKin? ley's expansic>n is imperialism. How absurd to compare the peaceable annexation of territory here on our own hemisphere, right at our own door, thinly settled, good climate and suitable for j homes for our own people and for future states of the republic, with the forcible annexation of sev? eral hundred small islands 7.000 miles from our nearest shores, with a climate unfit for Americans, with a dense population of people alien to ovr government, our institutions and our civilization. Who will be so blind as not to see the distinc? tion? No. Mr. Chairman, McKinley" imperialism wiil find no likeness in thc whole history of this re? public-. Thank Ced. America has had but one Napoleon, and I hope she may never have an? other. Already American liberty under this adminis? tration has become too timid-to sympathize with J the oppressed <.: other lands nov.- struggling for j that same liberty and freedom which we ourselves j enjoy. I? wc had a Washington, Jefferson or Lin coln in the White House today, the American gov? ernment would he sympathizing with the liberty loving Hoers or South Africa instead of their Brit Ssh oppressors. Hut it is whisyv rc! we aie now in tho act of j becoming a world power, and no ono must disturb the evolution. Why. sir, we have been a world ! power for over a hundred years. We are now, and j for years nave been, the mightiest world power i on the face of the earth, made s^ not by war, but j by peace--lon^ reigns oi peace. Sir, what has contributed more to our rapid progress as a na- i tion than the pure sunlight of peace, winch has j cast ifs rays of glory into every corner of the re- | public? Under its swed influence we have expanded in j education, si ience. art, literature, useful inven j tions and all the happy auxiliaries of?a progressive civilization. Who is not proud of ot:r whole his? tory as a republic, living under the constitution and within the constitution as our fathers made it? Who would exchange it now for an empire? With such supreme sati>faction of our past, why imperil the future by attempting new schemes or trying new experiments? Why not permit the old ship of state to sail on upon that same well tried sea, which will surely carry it safely through to higher honors and grander glories for the repub? lic? But. alas, who will haul down the flag? I an? swer, who will haul down McKinley? The people, the libi rty loving people. They will haul him down ear?y in November. They will snatch from his imperial brow his glittering crown bought with the blood o: l-.is countrymen and enthrone in his place of power that ga'lant champion of hu? man rights, that fearless defender of .human free? dom, and crown him with the Declaration of In? dependence and the constitution of the republic.

Skirts arr decidedly long, touching tile ground in front and ;it thc* side?, while at the back they drag more or less. The consequence is thal every woman carries her skirt in her hand in the st roer, which necessitates pretty and well cared for GIRL'S TOILET. fihoos. Thc cniy short skirts worn are those which are uncompromisingly short, escaping thc ground by several inches. Petticoats follow the fashions of gowns in form, hut do not trail at all. even when intended for wear with a trained skirt. They are still innch trimmed below the knee, but are quite plain above it and at the back of the waist are laid in a few plaits. Petticoats of the more elaborate order have insets of black or white lace, rutiles of chillon edged with ribbon or velvet, tiny gauze ruches or ruches of finely pinked silk, flounces of lace. and. in fact, are as richly adorned as gowns. The plainer kinds have various arrange? ments of plantings and ruffles of thc same material as thc body of the petticoat, which is usually taffeta or a kind of silk alpaca, which is more durable. The girl's costume pictured is of beige patin cloth, the skirt being plaited and stitched at the sides and back. It closes at the right side, thc edge being scalloped and bordered with a band of brown vel? vet, with appliques of blue silk. The bo? lero and sleeves of the cloth are trimmed in the same way. The chemisette is of shirred blue silk, and thc wide, plaited belt is also of hine silk. The sailor hat of fancy straw is decorated with beige ribbou, a beige plume and a gold buckle.
