Looking upon the closed mills,
broken banks, idle wOrkmen and ru-
med farmers they dared not face the
wrath of the people, and so they cum
ningly decided to sneak away from
their record and raise another issue
for the purpose of again deceiving the
country and retaining power. In pur-
suance of this conspiracy every Demo
cratic paper and public speaker was
ordered to stop talking taritf-as it only
called attention to the collapse of Dem
Ocratic free trade-and To take up free
silver as an issue and charge all the
miserles of the country 10 the Repub-

Do the workingmen who have suf-
fered loss of employment, reduced
hours of labor, reduced wages and gem
eral distress want to follow the advice
of a man who was wrong on the tariff in
1893? DO they believe that one who
advocated radical departure from an
existing system in 1893 and whose
prophecy has been proved faIacious
by cruel experience is right now? Do
they wish to trust this man again when
he proposes another departure, pos
sibly even more radical? Mr. Bryan
was wrong once. Is there any evidence
| that he is right now?-Springtield,

The only man on the Democratic
ticket who has the ghost of a chance Of
| being elected is Robert Hanna, candi-
date for County Clerk. Mr.. Hanna Is
exceedingly popular, thoroughly com
| petent and about the only East End
man favored by a position on either
! ticket. All of these points wNl be duly
| weighed by the voters of Douglas couu-
| ty.
Judge Lansing, Bryan's next door
neighbor in Lincoln, speaks highly of
| the candidate as a neighbor and church
/ man, bat scores his political principles.
! He saws that Bryan once told him that
employers were trying to take the car
pets otY the Parlofs % tie work;ngueaH.
Il asked him if he could show me any
where else in the world where the

1t is said that chairman Jones in
Conceding several doubtful states to
Mckinley, includes the Sandwich Isl
ands, This reminds us of Il story we
have heard in connection with Lin
coins war campaign, when an ignorant
fellow said that he had been told that
Lincoln was elected, and had carried
the whole state of Newfoundland.
Mark Hanna suggests that on Satur-
day Oct. 3lss eFerv republican should
bang out the stars and stripes as an In.
dication of good citizenship. MIR. Bry.
an agrees with Mr.. Hanna. and advises
all his followers TO do the sssu-e. If this
Is done the number of flags will pretty
well indicate the Mckinley majority.
We are pleased to learn that cur
old friend King Staples, now of Iron
River, but formerly of South Range, i
running for the assembly in his district
and will, Of course, be elected. Mr.
Staples will ably represent his district
and we shall be pleased to publish a
little later notice OF his election.
As BRYAN closed his speech at Harp
er's Ferry the soul of John Brown
paused IN its business OF marching on
and sat down TO wonder whether it is
worth while, after all, to make national
history?-New Work Mail and Express,
One Of the best democratic politi-
clans in minnesota, famiiarly known

that Mckinley and Clough will win in
th2; state. As vet he has not been TAX
en- up.
