silver and good government. The stand

bunting and embellished with Mckinley

set before the speaker. A reminder per.
haps Of tho risks that would come to him
did heattempt discussion of dry sub bjects
Inc painful impression seemed to take
hold of the otherwise hilarious audience
that there was screw loose in the official
galaxy of the Bryan Club of Washburn
and its display was very marked in last
Saturday nights meeting.
The Ex-Governor, however, made very
fair presentation of his subject and the
