Spain has dona with the money
"which some patriotic Spaniards

Bryan addressed ten thousand
people in Clarksburg, West Vir-
ginia, last week, many women
marching in the procession of the
great reformer.
The Bowie Blade says: "The
ihirt waist has reached town and
aaveral of our youn# men have
appeared in them. They are neat
looking and very comfortable."
Hon. A. M. Dockf.ry, demo-
cratic candidate for governor of
Missouri, figures on a majority
of not less than 00,000. Others
place his majority much higher.
CaRneoie, the millionaire iron
master, has arnounced at Boston
bis purpose to take the stump in
favor of Bryan, under the aus-
pices of the Anti-Imperialist
League.
The Democratic party is en-
titled to the highest respect be-
cause it is animated by the high*
#3t and noblest of purposes—a
purpose identical with that which
Inspired tho patriots and heroes
of 1776.
Our noble friend, the sultan of
Bttltl, is still for the old flag and
MoKinley's generous pension.
H* weeps, however, when he real-
izes that he will not bo permitted
to oast his vote and the votes of
his slaves and concubines for the
Cahton over-lord.
Adlai E. Stevenson, who, by
th« way, never shot a man in the
back or "busted" a bronco, is
idrawing greater crows to listen
to his sober worwda of wisdom
than all the red lights, tin horns
jf and rough riders are drawing for
Teddy the Strenuous.

the labor vote.
The editor of the Arkansas
Gazette morally certain that
what is known as the labor vote
of this country will fee cast for
Mr. Bryan in November. Gov.
Roosevelt has made a strong ap-
peal to the wage earners for their
support of Mr. McKinley and
himself, but the response from
the workingmen of New York
affords him very little encourage-
ment. Here is what some of j
them have to say about him:
Martin F. Murphy, president
New York State Workingmen's j
Federation, says: "The state | |
federation fared badly at the
hands of Gov, Roosevelt."
James J. Cullen, national sec-
retary mt-tiU polishers and brass
workers' union, says: "Our ex-
perience with 1,'oosevelt and his
a (ministration has been a bitter
mmm
lieorge 1'
ak, president cigar-
makers' union No. 141, says:
"No workingman should vote for
RooBevelt. He has opposed the
labor measures presented to the
legislature, He grossly deceived
labor on tho employers' liability
bill."
ilarry White, general secreta-
ry united garment workers,
says: "I was never so much
disappointed in a public roan as
I have been in Gov. Roosevelt.
A big cipher is the result of our
support of Roosevelt. We won't
be fooled again."
Herman Robinson, secretary of
central federated union, says:
"Roosevelt took pains to show
consideration for tho political
boss and for the large corpora-
tions, but apparently he had no
respect for workingmen's organ-
izations."
These leaders of labor repre-
sent a great numbed of votes in
tho Umpire state, They are not
for McKinley and Roosevelt.
They are opposed to an empire
and to the trusts. They say to
themselves: "The present sys-
tem of imperialism, military su-
premacy, inequalities in the op-
portunities for life to secure
homes or enjoy benefits of indus-
try, the product of the hand and
brain, and harvest the blessing
of an honest and industrious
citizenship, are so rapidly bear-
ing fruit that it would seem as
though nobody need be deceived
in the fact that a trust govern-
ment will surely turn manhood
into decay, undermino the foun-
dations of citizenship and assure
the fall of the republic."
The man with the dinner pail
is opposed to imperialism and will
help elect Mr. Bryan, the candi-
date of tho party which is oppos-
ed to the trusts.
An Industrial Paradox.
There are more doctors being
turned out than can secure pa-
tients.
There are more lawyers grad
uating than there are clients.
Thero are more bookkeepers,
stenographers and typewriters
qualifying than there are posi
tions.
There are more mechanics,
electricians and engineers than
there are places to fill.
There are more laborers than
there are holes to dig.
There are too many farmers
producing too much to eat.
There is more clothing produc
ed than the people can well wear
out.
There is an over-production
everywhere.
Yet thousands and thousands
die from the want of medical
care.
Men lose their little homes be
cause too poor to pay lawyer
fees.
Men die from the want of things
to eat (hat the farmers produce.
Some freeze to doath in the
street because they have no
money to buy clothing to protect
their bodies from the winter's
blasts.
Yet, there is an over-produc-
tion everywhere, and enough for
the poor nowhere. — Baltimore
Labor Advocate.
TflEKE never has been but one

All the walla of Pekin, unlike
those of most citiea in China, are
kept in good repair. The outer
walla measure about 30 miles in
circumference. Those of the
older portions of the city—the
Tartar portion—are 50 feet high
and have a width at the bases of
00 feet, while at the top they are
40 feet thick. Tho walls of the
Chinese part of the city are 30
feet high, 25 feet thick at the
base, and 15 feel thick at the top.
Oa top of the walls are square
buttresses, built at intervals of
60 feet, and on top of these are
guard-houses, which are occu-j
