THE TRIBUNE. ISSUED EVERY FRIDAY BY The Tribune Publishing Co.f GRAHAM, N. C. A. Campbell McKibbin, Editor. Heenan Hughes, Bus. Mgr. __c Subscription One Dollar a Year. i Entered at the post-office in Graham, N . 0., as second class matter. * I 1 , ■ ■ £ - FRIDAY, AUGUST 31, 1900. REPUBLICAN TICKET. f FOR PRESIDENT, william McKinley, * of Ohio. FOR VICE PRESIDENT, *' l/THEODORE ROOSEVELT, of New* York.. What Bryan Would Do. I * . . We are not left to conjecture what Bryam would do if elected to the Presidency of the United States. In his speech of ac ceptance Mr Bryan said: lit “If elected I shall convene Congress in extraordinary ses sion as soon as inaugurated, and recommend an immediate declaration c>f the nation’s pur pose-first, to establish a stable form of government in the Philippine Islands, just as we are* now establishing a stable form of government in Cuba: second, to give independence to the Filipinos, just as we have promised to give independence to Cuba; third, to protect the Filipinos from outside interfer ence while they \vork out their destiny, just as we have pro tected the republics in Central and South America, and are by the Monroe doctrine pledged to protect Cuba.” This would mean the cool sur render of our authority, and the furling of “old glory” in the Philippine Islands.J Our army ^ would be withdrawn, but a fleet of war vessels sufficiently strong to prevent Germany, France, Great Britian, Japan, Russia and all other nations from in terfering with the Islands would have to be maintained. We can readily see what international complications would result from this rule. From Mr. Bryan’s argument it is apparent that we would, under his directing hand, cross the ocean and there undertake to uphold a republic against nations. What a dis turbing influence a Democratic Administration would create. ■ i Mr. Bryan also said: “It was God himself who placed iii every human heart the love of liberty.” “The real destiny of the na tion is to establish the princi ples of liberty for the whole world.” “Is the sunlight of full citi zenship to be 4mjoyed by the people of the United States and the twilight of semi-citizenship endured by the people of Porto Rico, while the thick darkness of perpetual vassalage covers the Philippines? _ Is it possible Bryan has for gotten the rod $hirt campaign in North Carolina? Wliy did he not mourn over the oppress ed masses in this State? We hope his nightmare of an ex ^ ^raord inary session may uot re sult seriously. If it should, “peace to his ashes.” ~~ *** ~' v Dollar wheat and ten cent cot ton tell the story of Me Kill le}’ prosperity. _ A FATHER'S ADVICE. f - My Dear B03 —In your last letter you say that old man Skin ner, your employer, says that he ‘doesn’t $ee what a farmer can be thinkih’ of to vote for McKin ley when the trust are squeezing the life out of the farmer and the country is drifting right into im perialism every day.” You want to know how to ans wer him. well, I will tell you what to say to him and then 1 have 0 few words to say to you. Ask Mr. Skiner if he remem bers that in 1806 he sold that sor rel mare that used to work on the nigh side with old jim for 645. Ask him whether the sorrel was not a better horse than that one that he sold to Crawford the oth er day for $80. Remind him that he sold his wool in 189G for 14 cents, and that he sold, this year at 27 cents and kicked like a steer because he didn’t get 30; Gently;suggest that he sold a couple steers in 189G for $3.25 per hundred, and that they were as good as those splendid fellows that he sold last week for $5? 10. The old man runs a huckster wagon Ipto Chatham and sells produce ; to the miners’ wives. Ask him if he remembers that four years ago a woman would come out to the wagon and say: “Can you let me have a peck of potatoes and trust me till John gets work?” Remind him that the same woman comes out now and says: “Give; me three dozen eggs and two pounds of butter. What are those peaches worth ? I'll take « basketful of them. Give me a peck of those tomatoes. HoW much does it all come to? Here’s your money. When are you go ing to bring in some veal? John likes veal for breakfast.” Remind "him that lie told me that whenever the Mayhew farm is put up for sale he intends to bid on that upper eighty that joins, his, an’ that lie lias made enough money in the last two years to pay for it. And then gently suggest that lie does hot appear to be suffer ing muqh from imperialism or trusts either. Tell him that per haps he had better let well e noughalpne. Tell him not to vote for what he doesn’t want. Tell' him that when trade is good and business confidence strong and helthfulj it is not wise to tear thh whole thing down by giving the administration into untried han I think that this is the only kind of argument that will touch oldmanSkiner, but you, my boy, have a large soul. I want to say some other things to you. My bc|y, thank God that you live in a country prosperous at home and honored abroad, and never so prosperous and honored as now. T i :•. When you come to vote this fall, remember that the national credit has reached its highest point; that the work of American laborers has gained its highest reward, and that the g-lory of American arms pn land and. sea has beeii most widely maintain ed und^r the wise, thoughtful, patriotic administration of McKinley. Remember that his administration is carrying out the principles and policy of the Repubican party. Remembpr the blood of four generations of American solders runs in your veins, and then vote so that you will not he ashamed of your vote on the day after election. YOUR FATHER I: ' ..
