Kveryone knows how
the McKin-
V-y protected tarirt" barons went iuto
the work shops just before the elec
tion of and exhibited orders
enough to run their mills for half , a
decade, all to be cancelled if Bryan
was elected. They also know that
immediately after the election of Mc
, Kinley many of these lactones closed
; and for a year or two times were as
bad as before. In fact they never got.
better until McKinley took to ccining t
regard to this trkk an easte rn j)aper
remaiks: "
The Hartford Post asserts that many
' of the contracts now being made for
next winter's business are conditional
on the re-election of McKinley. If
Hryan is elected the deals are off.
This, our contemporary thinks, "is
not politics, but cold-blooded busi
ness." Oh, no. it is nor business, but poli
tics of the most familiar kind. There
never is a presidential eauipaigu with
out the same dodge. In 1SS4 the late
V. T. Ua rnara announced that he
i would sell his -property at Bridgeport
for SO cents on the dollar in case of
; Cleveland's election. When" Cleveland
Was elected Barnuni .was asked .to
.""mk good," but. he preferred to hold'
i;OT1 '(0 -the property. !h l8?? there was
s gpner'il 'announcement on the part
fof factory owners-that they would
hut. down., in ;the event of Bryan's
! election, and that if McKinley should
t,e elected they would run on full time
at. increased wages. McKinley was1
elected, and nanv of the factories j
that had made thes;? promises shut
down, and of those that kept open a
; number reduced w-ages.
j Pre-elfction threats and promises
: are politics. Post-election perform
j ance is business. The republican par-
ty is never without its Barnuni.
SENATOR LODGE
I Out in Colorado Trying to Elect Woloott
My Iefendinsr McKinley Imperialism .
Wolcott, the traitor to free silver, is
making a desperate effort to carry the
Colorado legislature so that he may be
returned to the United States senate.
He has sent for Senator Lodge of
Massachusetts to help him. Lodge
made a speech in Denver the other
night and the News comments upon it
as follows:
Mr. Lodge is a scholar and a pol
ished speaker. He represents a state
wh.ich always has been proud of its
senators and which was bathed in the
blood of its sons, shed for liberty. We
wonder if he thought of the revolu
tion as he stood before a fine audience
in Denver last night and urged that
we must uphold the administration be
cause it has become involved in a war
the Philippines. If he did he must
have recalled that while the "em
battled farmers" were fighting at Con
cord, Lexington and Bunker Hill, the
English imperialists of that day were
using precisely the same arguments
to strengthen the British government
against the American patriots that" he
is using to strengthen the McKinley
administration in its war of invasion
I against the Filipinos.
I It was to those liberty-smashers that
I the great Edmund Burke declared:
! "It-is said that, being: at war with
the colonies, whatever our sentiments
might , have, been before, all ties -between
lis are now dissolved, and all
the policy we have left is to strengthen
the hands of government to reduce
them. On the principle of this argu
ment. , the more mischiefs we suffer
from any administration, the more our
trust in it is to be confirmed. Let
them but once get us into a war, and
then their power is safe, and an act
of oblivion past for al! their miscon
duct." The claim" which Burke denounced
when put forth in behalf of King
George is the claim most strongly
urged in behalf of President McKinley.

MCKINLEY AGAINST PENSIONS
Declares to a Committee of the G. A.
K.
that the Money Power Will ?Jot
See Them' Expanded
Hon. D. I. Murphy, former commis
sioner of pensions, now residing in
this cityj in an interview, made the
following statement which he is as
sured can be fully substantiated: -
"During the national encampment
of the Q. A. R. at Philadelphia one
year.ago, the pension ouestion and the
attitude of this administration tow-ards
the civil war veterans was the princi
pal topic under consideration. A spe
cial committee consisting of R. B."
Brown" .of: Ohio, chairman; John W.
Burst of Illinois, John Palmer of New
York, C. C. Adams of Massachusetts
and H. B. Case of Tennessee, had been
previously appointed to -wait upon the
president and protest against the pol
icy being carried out . in., the pension
office. .. This committee called on Pres
ident McKinley on the morning of Sep
tember 4, 1899. -They presented to him
the complaints of their comrades and
urged a change in the. pension policy.
They even went' so far as to tell the
president that the G. A. R. might even
ask for a.-removal of the commissioner
of pensions." x - '. -
. '.'Replying to .the committee, Presi
dent McKinley Kve ' them" plainly to
understand that he would sustain-the
commissioner, r no matter: how strong
ly the encampment might condemn
him, and added this astounding dec
laration: 'There Is no use . denying
the fact, "gentlemen, that the money
power of the "country Is against any
further expansion of the pension roll.'
"The amazement and discomfiture of
the committee were so complete that
they quickly withdrew from the exe
cutive presence." . .

A Few- More Extracts From the Adminis

William Murphy, a civilizer of com
pany A, Twenty-seventh infantry, got
on a drunk and raised a big row in the
Spanish hotel. A guard was called
and tried to pacify the patriot.- In a
drunken rage. Murphy shot the guard
through the hand." r The guard rer
sponded by shooting the drunken sol
dier through - the bowels, killing him.
.Later in the .day, another soldier
got beastly drunk in an American sa-.
loon on the Escolta. He became ugly
and riotous.': When '.an officer expostulated,-
the- -inebriate- defied him with
a. . loaded rifle, .threatening, to blow
his head off. He also declared his in
tention of " killing half dozen others
while -he was at it. The teacher of
good government was finally over
powered and arrested. '
On the same day a gang of drunken
soldiers from the Twenty-seventh and
Twenty-ninth regulars came " to the
city for- a good old American carouse.
They , raised a drunken riot in the
Quiapo district and one of them began
to shoot miscellaneously at everything
in si?ht. He was arrested by the
guards, but escaped. Later he went

That night Private Corrigan of the
Fourteenth Infantry got drunk, en

Wrhen refused, he raised a row and
