With this impudent a-suranee
Mr. Bryan came to Washington and
entered upon the fust .session of the
I'ilty-second co!Hre-. II iis-ur-ante
would win he should
have made a L,reat success. But
in a yreat body of ;!.1J men it taken
something- more thanself assertion,
somethiti ; more than boot strap
power, to pull i member over the
fence.
No one will attempt to gainsay
that Mr. Bryan is a clever man; la
is a hail h lh.w well met sort of
Centk man, and peraoually he is
popular. I am fond of him. A -t an
orator he is j;lib of touu,ue, and the
"boys" will listen to him and ap
plaud, for he is a -nod fellow. But
what does this all d.. for a ureal
ami powerful people, a new, pro
yressive district, with so many
thousands of varied industries and
interests?
The Contrres-ionnl Record fails
to dist lose a siiiile measure which
Mr. Bryan litis gotten through con
yress. It beiiis no record of n
siiielebill which he drafted with
his own hand in tin- interest of a
constituent, and pushed through,
although it may show that lie in
troduced a bill or two. 1 lis attitude
toward his constituents lias been
that of one who said:" "If yon want
me to introduce any measure for
you, write it out and I will intro
duce it, but I have too much of the
country and my party on my hands
to look iifter a mere local measure.
1 am a meniber-tit-lare, not a
delegate from little .Nebraska."
And so be litis not jiven at
tention to the wishes of his con
stituents. He has presented fine
spun general measures in the
interest of the British manufacturer,
mid labored with all the power of
his tongue to destroy home indus
tries. It was Mr. Bryan who lirMt sug
gested that the beet sugar industry
of this country was a liunjbug and
a fraud and that it should not have
any bounty or other protection.
It was Mr. Bryan who introduced
a bill to put binding twine upon
the free list, although he knew
Ihere had just started one ol the
largest binding twine factories in
tliecounlry at Fremont in Nebraska,
and that it could and soon would
give Nebraska farmers twine made
from their own llax straw, which
they would sell at high figures, and
that they would get the twine lower
in price than they had ever gotten
it at; and he knew also that his
proposition if acted on would close
up the home factory.
It wasMr. Bryan who went around
to the democratic mefuhers of con
gress and assured them, with the
blatant rrcUessness which the re
mark ipioted at the outset of this
J letter is characteristic of, that he
count prove that tue licet sligarand
binding twine industries of Ne
braska were not only biinconiL, run
in the interest ol ( nard and a f. vv
other capitalists, hut he would
carry the farmers with him in the
work of tearing down all tl'ie manu
facturing industries in the state, as
the farmers were opposed to manu
factures. These are some small "states
manic cuds" from Mr. Bryan for his
farmer constituents to chew.
From the very moment Mr. Bryan
came to congress he has referred to
"hi fanner constituents" n if they
were not only impractical theorists,
but ns though their mental hori.
, 'ons were not above, h.e crowns of,
j""'"' hits. He bus talked of their

men ;M S.-u.ttor I'addoek, has cre
ated a demand for on r corn in every
'"I'icr of F.iirope. And jet Mr
Bryan will tell you this is all rub
bish. If the I'nited States wi re a little
cluster.,) islands, like the Briti.h
possessions, ami we had absolute
tree trade, which is an imperative
necessity with Kngl.md on account
of her very formation and earth; if
we had a house of , , nls and chose
it members from the theorists ot
the laud J'or the purpose of tickling
the ears of dreamers, Mr. Bryan
would make a good and useful
member. But for a new and grow
ing country, where every other cit
i'.en has direct interests before con
gress, which nllect him itnti vidually
and the entire time of a ciingivss
man slumld be devoted to these in
terests without thought of general
destruction, I should like m know
where Mr. Bryan's services can be
employed better lluin in his law of
fice :it Lincoln.
When Mr. Con, n il was here he de
livered no free trade speeches, at
tempted to destroy no home inter
ests, but he secured 'the adoption of
many measures of direct interest
to Omaha and Lincoln and to Hie
individuals who will go to Hie polls
on November S and vote.
It is a pity that we have not a
third house of congress where the
theorists could spend their fury
aid the would be destroyers of
of home industries could preach
their doctrine without feeling an
obligation to do Home practical
work.

Ni:w Yowk, Oct. lO.-The republi
can national campaign committee
gave to the press last night a state
ment charging the democratic na
tional committee with conspiring
to colonize in this city for election
purposes large numbers of negroes
Iroiii Philadelphia, Baltimore and
Washington and also to buy up
thousands of colored Hoaters in
this city and state. These revela
tions of democratic crookedness, il
is further stated, have come to the
republican campaign committee
through the exertions ol Commit
teeman David .Martin of I ' isylva-
nia.
Captain J. W. F.hlcr of Washing
ton, 1). C is staled to be the chief
instrument employed by the demo
cratic, national committee in this
manipulation of the colored volets.
He is said to have isited this city
last Aua-ust id the call of the demo
cratic national committee, who ha e
given him as assistants three
colored men, .rthur Smith of
Washington. Travis Glasioe of
I'lainlicld. N. J., and Charles Brown
of this city.
Klder i- also, barged with ha ing
ittcmpted to bribe colored t.reach-

this he is reported to have met with
repulse.
The republican national commit
teeman say they will spare no t ITort
for the detection ot these contem

will leaving nothing undone to
punish the otTenders.
What folly! To be without Bcech
