Helena Independent; That plur-
ality OF 100000 means about q
100000 votes for Mckinley, about
100000 for Bryan, and, say. l.
100000 scattering. Thus McKin-
ley has about Z votes to Bryan's 6.
So McKinley's vote doesn't appear
to be such a landslide after all. A
vote Of Z TO 6 is considered pretty
close in city council; one Of 20 to
80 is pretty close in a legislature,
one Of 700 to 600 is pretty close in
a county; and one Of 1000 to 5000
very close in a territory. The
mere getting Of more votes doesn't
cut much figure in a presidential
election. Tihen had a plurality
of 250,9S5 over Hayes, and yet he
was counted out. Andrew jackson
had a plurality of50,55I over John
Quincy Adams in 1924, but the
House Of Representatives made
Adams president.

Mr.. Moody does not rain rhetori-
cal hell fire. on his hearers. He
depicts the beauty and the good
sense Of right living rather than
the .'terrors of the judgment" The
trouble with much of the old-time
revival preaching was, as an acute
writer said, that "the joys of the
world to come have been habitual-
ly SO pictured that the great ma
jority cannot relish them, and its
pains so that they cannot believe
them" Mr.. Moody does not dwell
much on an eternity Of harp-tink-
ling or soul-torturing. He bids
men to be honest, to be decent, to
be kind and charitable. Though
faith is the basis of his message,
the religion he presents ia more a
life than creed. IN. Y. World.

GREAT IN DEFEAT

Anent the many slurs cast al
Bryan. The DaIles Chronicle, one
Of the leading republican papers Of
Oregon, in denouncing this atti-
tude, especially Of the press, says;
The Portland Telegram, while
usually fair, has disclosed a rabid
streak that becomes visiblein every
mention of the name of w. ]. Bry-
an. Yesterday evening in speak
ing Of him and the rumor that he
was to write book on bimetalism,
that paper said; HE is the junior
member Of the enterprising fame
building firm of Mary Bryan and
Husband The Telegram does not
believe in Mr.. Bryan's views, neith-
er do the American people, not by
a million OF more, as the election
has just shown. But while differ
ing from him in political ideas,
there is no reason why either the
press or the people should under
take to belittle the man. History
will deal kindly with him, and he
will always stand in the history of
American politics one ofits most
remarkable figures. When he was
nominated at Chicago, he was what
might be called an unknown man.
He was nominated by a party
whose chances were estimated at
the time as simply nothing. Its
record on the tariff, the hard times,
the sale Of bonds, increasing of the
public debt in time Of peace, and,
more than all, its advocacy of the
silver standard, were each consid-
cred enough to beat it; and, collec-
lively, to everlastingly annihilate
it. Bryan accepted the nomina-
ton; he put himself at the head of
a discouraged and a disheartened
following. Single handed he COM
menced the fight; he put courage
in hearts where before was despair;
from o flying and defeated mob he
organized solid and determined
squadrons,- and in a few brief
months led them into battle. He
was defeated. bat he made a gall
liant fight.
Admit his cause was wrong as
we may. we cannot but admire the
genius of the man. His speeches
were models, and though made at
the rate of from ten to thirty a
day, he made no mistakes. He
made the fight SO hot that he call
ed forth every effort Of his oppo-
nents, and in spite of these and of
the immense popular majority
against him, he almost snatched
victory from them.
It is no use to belittle Bryan.
He was q foeman worthy of our
steel, and a true American. He
accepted defeat manfully, and as
we have said before, will go down
in the history Of political parties
as one of its brightest characters.

james II. Wallack, a theatrical
manager Of Chicago, wants William
]. Bryan to take the part of George
Englepart in the drama when

Wheat is up now, and the indi-
cations at present, judging from
the report Of the condition of crops
throughout the world and the visi-
BILE supply of wheat on hand, are
that prices will remain up for at
least a year. This outlook should
encourage farmers to SOW a large
acreage of wheat next spring,
With the assurance of low freight
rates together with an almost GER
tainty of high prices, the prospect
for the Gillian farmers is brighter
today than for many years past.

Speculation Regarding The Nomina-
ton BY The Gold Standard

Democrats.
indianapolis, Ind, Sept. 1.-Word that
Senator Villas will not permit the use
of his name for presidential nominee
is brought here today by Ellis b. Ush-
er, of Wisconsin. Villas does not
want the nomination." said he; be
sides he is for General Bragg. Wis
cOnsin delegation will be here today
and begin work for Braggs nominal
ton. From what have learned since
my arrival it would appear that Henry
Watterson will be General Bragg's on
ly formidable rival"
He further said he did not believe
there was warrant for the statement
that Villas was the administration can
didate. He was asked about a state
ment that General Bragg had a green
back record. General Bragg" he re-
piled, was never a greenbacker, but
he believed in 1878 that specie pay
ments could not be resumed without
undue contraction. He was mistaken
and has long since admitted that the
views he then held We're erroneous.
The views he held then will not pre-
JUDGE his candidacy here.
Mr.. Usher said Bryan would not re-
ceive fifty per cent of regular, Demo-
cratic votes in Wisconsin. How much
of the gold vote would go to the ticket
nominated here, he thought was prob
lematical. His opinion was that forty
per cent of the German Democratic
vote would be cast for Mckinley. Ush-
er said there was considerable silver
strength among Republicans in the
northern part of the state.
More interest attaches here to Mr..
Cleveland's position perhaps. than to
any other feature of the convention.
Ry many it is accepted as a fact that
the president iS- in sympathy With the
purpose of the convention. A declar-
alton of some sort from him would not
surprise them. In fact, they rather
anticipate something from Cleveland.
Those who are most active in the move
ment are not of this opinion.
Bynum said today he did not think
the president would be heard from.
1T would" he said, be unlikely that
the president will make a declaration
in advance of the action of the conven-
ton, even were he in sympathy with
it. He would hardly endorse it's &C
ton in advance. Such course would
commit him, no matter what was DONE
/ don't look for any word from the
president to this convention" There is
a decided feeling that but one thing
stands in the way of offering the NOM
ination to the president 1t is recog-
nized that in case this action was TAX
en- there would be a clamor against a
third term which might be turned to
account by the silver men and prevent
some from voting. In case a northern
man is named for first place there is
disposition to push either General
Buckner, of Kentucky, or Secretary
Herbert, of Alabama, for second place.

To the Cotton Raisers of Texas:
There seems to be n disposition TO
exaggerate the crop prospects among
the export and mill buyers, who seem
to be short of cotton. Judging from
recent views of alleged experts the
rain that recently fell mostly in the
Panhandle of Texas would increase
the cotton crop from 100000 toi3,-
100000 bales. wish you would i'm
mediately write me here:
l. What was the increased acreage
in cotton in your neighborhood?
2. What per cent lost by bad stands
etc?
3. How large is the weed compared
with last year this time?
f. How does the crop compare
with last year?
5. How many acres does it take to
make bale on an average?
g. Did the recent rains benefit the
cotton?
Z. Prospects of the top crop.
g. Remarks on the crop.
g. How is the corn crop?
1t is very important to have full,
accurate and reliable report of the
cotton crops, so the truth may be
known to the spinners and buyers of
the world, and you can judge intelli-
gently when best to sell your crop.
Yours truly, e. S. PETERS,
