Bryan's Sincerity May BE Unquestioned,
But


But
Mr.. Bryan's arguments from hogs
and hens and other specimens of ami
mated nature and farm products to
show from the hogs that the roofing
capitalists need rings in their noses in
the shape of so cent dollars i'll order to
keep them from making too much money
out of the toiling masses, and then from
the hens that the silver product of the
whole world will be worth $l.29 an
ounce so soon as any body or any govern
ment that can afford it will agree to
take it at that, by his illustration of the
man who could make eggs worth 90
cents dozen by buying them at that
price, no matter what might be the cost
Of production-these arguments are I'M
questionably ingenious and eloquent,
but, after all. trihe confusing.
He recalls the story of the man who
opened an account with an old lady who
sold, among other things, peanuts and
beer. "How much" said no to the old
lady, "do you ask for poanuts?' "Three
cents a measure, said she. "Ah, yes!
Put me up cents worth of peanuts. "
The old lady having put up tho peanuts,
the purchaser said: Il SEQ you sell beer?
How much do you ask for beerp"
''Three cents glass;" said tho old
lady. Then, after moments reflection,
the purchaser said, well, on the whole,
think I'll take q glass Of beer instead
of the peanuts, handing back the pack
age of peanuts. A little desultory con-
sultation followed, after which the pur-
chaser started to go. 81 beg your par
don, SIR" said the old lady, but you
haven't paid for the beer. " "Why, no,
of course not" said the customer. II
gave you the peanuts for the beer"
But" said she, 'you did not pay for
the peanuts. " PAY for themp OF course
1 didn't" said the customer. 'Why
should /? / didn't take them.
The old lady, being like some of Mr.
Bryan s followers, a little slow in her
mathematics, but of contiding nature,
after pause slowly replied: You seem
to be very sincere man, and what you
say is no doubt correct, though l didn't
quite understand it. But will you DO
good enough hereafter to trade some
where else?" A great many good, hon.
est voters who have been listening to
and reading Mr.. Bryan for the last two
months will doubtless reach the same
conclusion in Novembcr-that he is
probably sincere though they do not
quite understand him; but, OH the
whole, they would rather he would
trade somewhere else New York Trib.

The Glorious Repua,licnn Party,

How glorious is Republican triumph!
There is not page of Republican his
tory that has been written in the last 33
years that any lover of humanity, any
lover Of liberty, any patriot would strike
from the pages of American history to-
day-not one. You can trust the Re-
publican party, for behind it is the
great conservative force Of the country {;
behind it this year. as in the days Of
the war, is the great patriotic heart Of
the country, Democrats and Republicans
alike. William Mckinley.

Mrs. John u. Henderson Explains What
They Are
OF course there are many causes for
| the present hard times There are three
principal ones, with the mention Of a
fourth. The free silver agitation itself
ranks first, for the handspring Of COM
merce is confidence, or credit. The in
vestment of money starts the vast ma
chinery of business. Who cares to SOW
dollars of gold to reap dollars of silver
at 40 per cent loss? What merchant
would buy cloth with the prospect of
the yardstick being legally changed:
Money is better, without interest, in the
banks than that, ard these it is today.
The want of mcncy is nc5 the cause of
hard times. The banks aEp fall Of it. It
is because no one wishes to use il in
business
| A second reason is the reckless specu-
latiOu of the last few years Westorners
have borrowed from every source to
build business blocks, whole towns,
railroads, etc, for speculative purposes
only. Money has been used for every

The natural resources of the west are

pudiation is to be added.

the overproduction of grain, with dis
regard of all the laws of supply and de-
| mand. We have produced vast quanti-
| ties of grain, almost enough to supply
the world. In 1871 we raised $50, 000,-
| 600 bushels of wheat, to be increased to
| Gil, 900, 900 bushels in 1891. In the
| last few years vast sections of cOun-
try heretofore considered deserts-the
steppes Of the Hlmalaya mountains, the
boundless plains Of Patagonia, the bor-
| ders of the Black sea--are now vast
fields Of grain. The winter freezes the
earth to the depth Of three or four feet.
At the first thaw OF spring the surface
is plowed and drilled in wheat, the
summer supplies further moisture. and
by August, rain or shine, q product Of
30 to % bushels Of grain to the acre is
secured. Russia, India and South
America have all imported our i'm
proved agricultural machinery, all Of

and now the western states must follow

The First Duty of Government.

Now, the Republican party believes
that it is the duty of the government
first to raise enough money to run the
government. We don't want any def
ciencies in the public treasury, and if
we have no deficiency we will have no
debts, and if we have no debts we will
have 40 bonds, and when we have no de-
ficiencies everybody Will have confidence

Who VIII Take Cheap Money?

But" says Bryan, 1--WE want cheap
money" Well, why? Because the mon
ey is now SO good that people hoard it.
Consequently he wants to get money
that nobody will want to keep. Money
that everybody will be crazy to spend.
If we get that kind Of money. who will
take it?--Robert 6. Ingersoll.

Bryan, the free trader, de-
clincs to admit that the tariff
is an issue in this campaign.
Some men are supporting him
solely on the claim that they
cannot vote for protection. This
is characteristic of that incOn-
sistent hybrid, the POpocrat
party.

Would Reduce the Per Capita.

1t must never be forgotten that the
free coinage Of silver at the ratio of 16
to would not increase but would de-
crease our per capita circulation. 1t
would add nothing to it, but would rob
us Of the good money we now have and
put us where the silver countries of the
world are today, upon silver basis
alone. William Mckinley.

officials heard that he was wanted in

decided that the prospects Of convicting
him in Texas are better than in

authorities will apply for requiston
papers and if they are granted, Choteau
county will surrender Davis and he will
be taken to Coleman county, Texas, there
to be tried under Is indictments. The
