4 TREMENDOUS CAMPAIGN.

Mr.. Gardiner is the one Democrat
in this district who never surrenders.
He holds up the istrict Democracy,
is secretary OF the congressional COM
mittee and grand organizer of club;
and serves in several other capacities
When all other Democrats are crush
ed, when the country is swept, as it
were, by Republican cyclone, and the
star OF hope seems to have sunk below
the horizon, the round, genial face of
Lawrence Gardiner comes up smiling
with the statement that "this is only
a temporary spurt," and he at once re-
sumes the fight.

the amount so far shipped is about
8,Oo0,OO0. A comparatively small
amount Of this can be sent under a
frank, as the Democrats are relying
less upon speeches delive red in Con-
gress than upon documents carefully
prepared on specific points. Besides
the matter shipped from here the
committee is supplying stereotyped
plates to local committees, enabling
them to reduplicate documents at
will. AT the start it was thought
quite joke to report that the demand
for pamphlets on the currency was
about l6 to to those on the tariff, but
it is no longer near enough to the
truth to be joke, for it is now over

They tell us that we have about $21
per capita of money, but that includes
all that has been lost, worn out,
burned up, boarded, and sent to for
eign countries, and also 1858, 905, 635
boarded up in the government vaults,
the reserves held by banks, insurance
companies, and other business houses,
and when all is figured down to where
it should be, we have less than 81 per
capita in actual circulation and no
nation can prosper and improve with
any such volume. We are stagnated
for want Of money, and the Republi-
can party says it favorS the existing
standard, which means the existing
condition Of things, and it promises to
do nothing looking to change.

conditions should vote the Republican

William Haworth's patriotic naval
drama, "The Ensign" While the
play has been seen in this city num-
Der OF times. its different visits here
have been occasions Of much success.
Founded on naval incident Of the
Civil War, its author has successfully
blended in his stage story. deal Of
love, pathos and comedy. The play is
written in five acts, several OF which
afford most striking climaxes. AS a
lesson in patriotism, it is deserving Of
praise and it's references Of this order
are numerous and effective.
The company producing the piece
will be headed by Miss Bessie Taylor
who will be seen in the role Of Alice
Greer, part she is said to enact with
decided success. The scenic equip.
ment will represent some decidedly
realistic representation Of actual
scenes on board a man-of-war.

"A bill for an act to forfeit the rights
OF the Hastings & Dakota Railway
Company to select or acquire title to

So that between the date when the

His Excellency, the Governor, with

pressed in the legislative act, and in
suited the legislature by returning to
them a bill, which he knew, and they
did not know, had, by his act. been
made empty of all results, and this
righteous measure OF the legislature
was, in this manner, defeated in the
interest of the corporation which was
contesting with the state for the
lands in question. This matter is
brought to your attention as matter
Of official record. We claim that it is
proper that the official actions Of this
administration should be made public

BRYAN WILL BE ELECTED.
The Des Moines Daily News is an
independent Republican daily, which
has taken poll of it's readers on the
coinage issue, and placed the returns
into the hands OF non-partisan judges
for canvass. The ballot of $50 towns,
as sent to the News, gives Bryan three
votes to McKinley's one. The Repub.
lican vote, which was 1908 for Bryan
and 500 for Mckinley, was especially
significant. The Independent vote,
