comes from persons who havo either

According to tho World-Herald Bry-
an'n election Is absolutely sure. But n

always selects ouo from tho writings

is thus relieved or tno cmunrrassmcnt or

Tho heavy registration all over tho
country indicates that while voters aro
too busy to stand around the streets
talking politics ns thoy did four years
ago they think tho preservation of tho

Induce thorn to take time to vote.

Thero has becn a vast expenditure of
argument about tho respective merits of
protection and frod trade. But experience
Is the best test. Wo have tried both In the
United States. Protective tariffs have been
lroperatlon in fifty-two of the 110 yenrs
Inco tho ndoptlon of tho constitution, anu
during those fifty-two years exports ex
ceeded Imports by moro than $2,500,000,000,
whllo during tho fifty-right years in which
low tariffs were In operation Imports ex
ceeded exports by $500,000,000. These facts
tell tho wholo story.

According to tho figures given by the
viceroy of India, a rough estlmato of tho
cost of tho famine In thnt country would
not fall short of J500.000.000. And this Is
only tho first cost, for 2,000,000. peoplo aro
still rccolvlng relief, and millions more
must be helped to restock their farms nnd
bo fed until they can reap their new crops,
Tho famine has been equal to devastating
war; but such a war would mean peace In
tho contending countries for nt least a
gcn'oratlon, whereas thero Is no security
that tiro famine will not occur again in a
year or two. In fact, history teaches us to
expect it In less than n decacie, tnougn, per
haps, not In so severe a form.

Thero will bo Jobs sentiment In this than
thero would be In the recovery ot tho de-

will roturn at tho rato of from 4,000 to 6,000
a month to the aggregate number of about
25,000. On their arrival at San Francisco
they will be mustered out. Of courso thl
movement takes place by order of tho pros
ldent, In compliance with the law, which
limits the terra of enlistment of the volun
teers to July 1, 1901. It is a very effective
answer to the Billy talk about imperialism,
By tho first of next July all of the volun

Mr. Bryan steadfastly refuses to answer
the question whether, If elected, ho would
pay our coin bonds In silver dollars. But
he bad already answered it. Many a
time during nnd after the campaign ot
189G he said what he said in his campaign
spoech to the business men of Chicago, and
which Ib embodied in his book, "Tho First
Battle." This Is what he said:
And then I propose that we shall say to
our foreign creditors that wo Intend to pay
our coin obligations In either gold or silver.
I propose that we shall say to them:
'Gentlemen, It you conspire to mako that
sliver dollar worth less than the gold dol
lar, wo Bhall pay you In that silver dollar.'
You say that that is repudiation. I dony It,

Now, as It would bo Inevitable thtt sil
ver dollars iould go down to their com
mercial value If our mints were opened to
their free and unlimited colusgo at thn
ratio of 16 to 1, Bryan would at once
charge that this unavoidable effect of eco
nomic law was tho result of a connplrscy
on tho part ot our foreign aud domestic
creditors, and then would pay tho interest
and principal of our coin bonds in thee
depreciated silver dollars. He denies In ad-
vanco that that would bo repudiation. Just
as tho grcrnbackers denied that it would
bo repudiation to pay our bonds In green
backs when they wcro worth 40 cents on
tho dollar. But here wo have his answer
to tho question to which he now declines
to glvo response. Ho not only mado that
answer In a carefully prepared speoch, hut
that there should bo no doubt about the
deliberate fixity ot his purpose ho put It
in his book, and thero It stands out on
pngo D87 of his "First Battle," a perpetual
witness to the reckless dishonesty and
financial Imbecility of the man who as
pires to the presidential offlco mainly for
