Durham is politically honored
this year. 1t has a candidate for
governor, with d fair chance Of
election; a candidate for vice-ples-
ident, and also for lieutenant gov
ernor on another ticket. and is
practically the head quarters Of
the congressional fight in this
district.
But, greater than all our hoaors
is the fact that Hon. w. j. Bryan,
the free silver and free will nomi-
nee Of three great parties for pres.
ident of this grand country will
be here this evening and address
such a multitude ofpeople as was
never before assembled here in the
history of our county and town.
1t may not be a sweet morsel to
some of our good friends who be
lieve as implicitly in the republi-
can party and Mckinley as they
do in their God, to have to swal-
low Bryan as the next president
but they had as well make up
their minds to do 50 without
making a wry face.
This western knight Of the sill
yer shield has entered the list as
champion Of lost prosperity, OPP
pressed labor. and suffering hu
manity. He viii unhorse his
gold armoured antagonist, and
when the tits are over, on the 4th
day Of next Marcn, he will lay the
trophies Of his hard won victory
at the feet Of a grateful people and
say your servant hath done this
much. What is it your pleasure
that | should further attempt-
and do?n
Such is the man who this peo-
pie will delight to honor-a man
Of the people and for The people
a man with a private and politi.

is no blot or blemish--a man who
is not so rich that he cannot appre-
ciate the suffering and want which
exist in this land Of plenty.
