" He says that the president has "joined hands with the supreme court to change the form of our government" and that a " 5 to 4 decision declared McKiuloy emperor of Porto Rico. " Mr. MoKiu- ley "gratefully accepted the title con ferred upon him by the highest judicial tribunal in the land. " Whether this is true and reasonable or untrue and unreasonable , Mr. Bryan is mainly responsible for the condition of affairs which ho describes. He dis rupted the democratic party hi 1896 by forcing on the Chicago convention an undemocratic , unsound , populistic plat form on which he stood as a presidential candidate , and was repudiated with his platform by a million of the best demo cratic voters in the country. In 1900 he forced on the unwilling and recalci trant democratic voters , the same plat form and himself again as a candidate. With any other candidate and with a constitutional democratic platform , Mo- Kinley would not have been re-elected in 1900. For all the present evils of the country which he describes , Mr. Bryan , with the violent , undemocratic , unpatriotic , un natural , absurd populistic fusion which he twee represented as a presidential candidate , is to the amplest extent in dividually responsible.
