which Is criminal In principle "when
done on a small scale is criminal when
done on a large scale. I believe that
we ought to challenge the republican
party to show title to the Philippine
Islands. I deny that wo have aiiy
moral right .to govern the Filipinos.
What right have we? Did wo buy
them or get them by force? I deny
the right of our government to buy
people at $2.50 a head and then kill
them because they do not like to be
sold. You tell mo we got them by
force I dare you to practice the doc
trine at home. If you are a big re
publican and go out and thrash a lit
tle democrat and then clainVto own
him, you will soon, be laugjrt- Better.
If a big republican cannot thrash a
little democrat and then own him, I
deny the right of seventy-flv. millions
of people to- thrash eight millions of
people and then, orn them. I' believe
we can present these issues and com
pel the republican party to meet them.
All it requires is faith ln-the triumph
of a righteous cause. I recently read
a. statement made by a man in regard
to the triumph of a cause; he told how
it grew slowly at first, but was tri
umphgnt at last. JHe told of the suc
cess: that came to those who attached
themselves to. the . cause and then he
said that while they deserved, some
credit for foresight, "they simply had
faith in the wisdom of doing right"
Mark the words "faith in the wisdom
of doing right.," If you are a mer
chant In business, have you laith in
the wisdom of doing right? If you
are a professionar man, have you faith
in the wisdom of doing. right? As a
citizen have you, faith in the wisdom
of doing right? If you are a democrat,
why should you not have faith in the
wisdom of doing right? I come to
you, my friends, to appeal to you to
maintain the integrity of the demo
cratic party; I come to urge you to
do what you can to lift the party to a
plane wher.e it can. appeal to the con
science of the American, people, and
challenge discussion of the moral is
sues involved in all these problems.
If vI were authorized to 'rame a prayer
for the democratic party a prayer
good enough for any party, it would
be: "Oh, God, give us faith in. the
wisdom of doing right.

Waking Up the World,
Like the sound of the shot fired by
the "embattled farmers" at Lexington,
the tick of the Yankee clock is now
"heard round tlia world." Our clock
export trade i? worth about $1,000,
000 a year. Unfortunately, its vol
ume shows no very great increase
during the last ten years. In 1893 it
was $96,423. In 1S02 it shows as ?1,
146,381, a falling off of $150,000 from
the figures of 1901.
The clocks exported are generally
of an inexpensive class, and $1,000,
000 worth makes quite a little moun
tain of them. The extent of their
distribution is indicated by the report
of a single week of August last. Dur
ing that week clocks-of a total value
of $15,000 were shipped to England,
Scotland, Germany, Spain, Maderia,
the Azores, Cuba, Colombia, Brazil,
Argentine, Natal, India and New
foundland. Shipments of other weeks
to these and to other lands show that
the cheerful tick of the Yankee time
piece is a familiar sound in nearly
every country of the globe. The ex
asperating shriek of the American
alarm clock breaks the stillness of
the moraing from the equator to ibe
frozen pole, and men of all races, col
ors and tongues hurl their anathemas
at it in their respective languages,
even though they hurl nothing more
weighty.
Our export of watches is close upon
tho heels of the clock trade, and shows
an increase which gives fair assur
ance of still greater Increase. Tho
export of watches in 1893 was valued
at $241,758. In 1902 it had risen to
tho sum of Sd98,109. The fact that
about three-fifths of the watch exports
of 1902. went to Canada is only a fair
argument of a very extensive trade
awaiting our cultivation elsewhere.
During that year Canada purchased
$5i75,000 worth of American watches.
From England, to whem it gave a
preferential tariff rate, Canadn bought
during tho same year $9,000 worth.
Germany and Switzerland sold on
equal tariff terms with the United
States. The German sales were $12,
700 and the Swiss $128,550. Canada
borght last year $198,000 worth of
American clocks, $8,250 worth of En
glish clocks and $6,000 worth of
French, chiefly in marble cases, a
French specialty.
We quote these Canadian figures be
cause thoy exnibit the ability of tho
American product to meet the compe
tition which it has to face in foreign
markets. That which is done in
Canada can be done elsewhere by the
expenditure of a modicum of trade
energy. The United States can and
should make the time pieces of the
world. New York Sun
issues beforo tho people of tho United
States today, tho issues upon which
the great political battle of this year
will bo fought, but along lineo some
what different from tho routine.
There is a moral side to every is
sue before tho peoplo, Mr. Bryan de
clared, and it is this that is being lost
sight of. Tho moral side o it has
been burled under commercial i&m un
til the only question involved today
seems to be whether a thin?? will be
of material benefit. For ultimate good
and lasting results, Mr. Bryan de
clared, attention must bo given to the
moral side of it.
This was the thought and idea
which Mr. Bryan, in his address, ap
plied to many of tho Issues before tho
country today, not only including that
of tho tariff and the trusts, but like
wise to tho situation In the east and
tho Panama canal.
Mr. Bryan's address was very force
ful, and those present listened to it
with much interest. Applause was
very generous and prolonged at times.
He was introduced to his audience by
R. A. Broyles, of Atlanta; who Is a
candidate for the legislature. Atlanta

Moral Issues.
William Jennings Bryan delivered
an interesting and a pointed address
last night at the Baptist Tabernacle,
on Luckle street, his subject being
"Moral Issues."
The tabornaclo. was crowded to the
doors, hundreds having gathered tq
hear what Mr. Bryan had to say od a
subject to which many lines of argu
ment might be fittqfl.
Mr. Bryan's address was in every
aspect a-i live, one. He discussed the
PRESS OPINIONS.
Clinton (NK J.) Democrat: The New
York World, in propping up its claim
that the democratic party wM "scut
tle" and repudiate its principles to
placate the World's present employ
ers, quotes from the late president of
the National Bank of Commerce (a
McKinley supporter In the 'ast two
elections), who says: "The interest
ing thing abouc Mr. Bryan s position
that all democrats want to itnow now
is whether he will boit If his 1896
platform is not reafflrmed." "The
interesting thing" to the World and
its bank president ought to v,o, whe
ther they will 'bolt" aaln if tho old
Jfeffersonian principles are reaffirmed.
Bryan has never bolted, and there is
no question in his case. But tho pre
sumption is against the old bolters.
David City( Neb.) Press: The mis
take made by the Schenectady Star
is in supposing that tho loyal peoplo
who spent a third of a generation in
apologizing for tho Wall street cop
perheadism during the war, and hired
henchmen they have employed since
to deceive, will forget the experience
thoy had with Cloveland soup houses
the treacherv of Gorman. Hill and
J Brice, who murdered the Wilson bill,
and again rally around an empty
name. This is o time when demo
crats would rather be right than elect
the president, They are not clamor
ing tor anotner era of dead-beat post
masters and corporation cuckoos,
seeking to be United States district
attorneys and marshal 3. They have
had the experience, and are no longer
solicitous for r repetition. From a
business standpoint, this editor has
been treated with more friendly con
sideration by republican postmasters
than ho ever was by democrats. A
change of postmasters, therefore, does
not appeal to us. The Star is inter
ested in the loaves and firtes, and
this editor has no treasures laid up in
that direction; he is guided in his be
liefs outside of self-interest . Even
If he, were selfish, it is our belief that
the organizer crew would bo a sadly
disappointed people those, we mean,
who are honest in their beliefs. The
most of those big eastern dailies are
not honest. Combined capitalism is
mortally fearful that the democratic
party will continue an aggressive antl
monopoly force. If It does their doom
is sealed in 1908, If they can succeed
in dumping a panic onto the demo
crats next year, they (the Aldrichs,
Morgans, Rockefellers, et al.) will
have a grip on the people which no
man living at this time will ever see
the end unless he sees it through the
rugged, glare of an event like that of
the French revolution.
