M. Hallet is preparing to move
away. We are sorry to see him go.
Parker town is fast settling up,
as quite a number Of new families
have moved in. One good feature is
they are bringing blooded stock,
which will be a great improvement
in this place.
We learn that Miss Guise Is very

Local showers are in order and

Chean Glory.

1t is gratifying to us to be able to
say that, so far as we have learned
the private character of William j.
Bryan. the free silver candidate for
the Presidency, is without reprOach,
but his political prOcliyities are
certainly antagonistic TO advanced
ideas of what constitutes good govern
ment. But. whatever may be his
propositions upon the problem of
cheap money, it is very evident that
he is getting a great deal of cheap
glory out of the pending campaign.
Probably no speaker, living or dead,
ever addressed as many people during
a like period of time as Mr.. Bryan
will have spoken to in the four
months ending November 3. 1896, the
day upon which he will become a
signally defeated candidate for
Presidential honor. Purely as an
attraction he is roaring success, and
the curious as well as ibis admirers
flock to see and hear him, as the
youngest man who ever received a
Presidential nomination, and one
whose 'gift of CAB" alone secured for
him this nOmination-for it is well
known that his famous speech deliv-
cred in the Chicago convention on the
9th of July is what induced the con-
yentiOn to placed him i'm nomination.
He is very diligently garnering glory
while he may, for he will soon drop
into that obscurity from which the
Chicago convention drew him, save
that he will serve as standing
admonition to future conventions not
to nominate man for the Presidency
simply because he can talk.
