Luckily there was no wind and by
the efforts Of the fire department the
fire was easily confined to the one
building. A COW belonging to Mr..
Lindquist persisted in the flames.
There was no insurance on the prop
erty and the loss is severe one for
Mr.. Lindquist, coming as it does at
at the start of his business career in
the city. Carl Youngdahl, who
lives right across the street was the
first to discover the fire, and hurried
to rouse the inmates OF the hotel and
turned in the alarm How the fire
started is mystery, but the circum-
stances are similar to those of the
fire short time pefore. It looks
very much as if some wretch whose
right place is behind prison bars is
trying to burn the town.

BRYAN'S VOTElN 1892,
A Canard That Should be Repudiated by
Descent and Honorable Men,

There is one little canard in circula-
ton which, as we see the matter.
should be repudiated by decent and
honorable men, no matter whether
they be Republicans or Democrats or
Populists, and that is the story that in
1892 Mr.. Bryan bolted the Democratic
party and cast his vote for the Popu
list nominee for the presidency. This
story is having wide and somewhat
hysterical circulation. His opponents
are not satisfied with insisting that
Bryan is a reckless and windy infart,
a firebrand, an agitator, an apostle of
class-prejudice and hatred, menance
to our national peace and safety. It
does not suffice them to declare that
he is an ignorant and unprincipled
mountebank and fool whose words
betray him. They must get out this
foolish story about his having voted
for Weaver in 1892 instead Of stand
ing by his party and voting for Cleve-
land.
Now, everybody understands by
this time that, whilst The Post is the
organ of neither party to the pending
contest, but takes its opinions and
frames its utterances according to its
own judgement and conscience, we do
not approve or advocate the policies
represented by Mr. Bryan. If we
have failed to make that fact clear it is
through no lack of effort on our part,
and we shall concern ourselves no
further in the premises. But we do
stand for fair play, for an intelligent
and honest statement of the issues be-
fore the country, and for the exposure
and denunciation of falsehood, stu
pidity and malice. Wed not believe
that the triumph of the gold standard
cause needs these vicious and abhor-
rent aids. We should deplore a vic,
tory achieved By such malignant
agencies. If Mr.. Bryan cannot be de-
feated without the help of scandal,
Misrepresentation and false witness
we should prefer to see him win.
When the American people reach a
point at which their political destinies
can be manipulated by lie there IS
no further degradation possible to
them.
We do not know whether Mr.. Bry-
an voted for Weaver or Cleveland in
1892. What we do know is that the
Democrats of Nebraska were urged
by the Democratic National Commit
tee-made up of Mr.. Ceveland's party
friends and prompted by Mr.. Whit
ney-to vote for Weaver and to ig-
more the Democratic ticket altogeth-
er. In Nebraska, as in several other
States in the Northwest, the Demo
Gratis had no hope of carrying the day.
They were in hopeless minority, and
their one alternative was to combine
with the Populists and take the State
from Harrison by electing the Weav-
er men. There was no secret about 1t
at the time. The manoeuvre was
matter of common knowledge and of
universal discussion. IF Bryan did
vote for Weaver, then, he did sojn
obedience to the earnest request of his
party's leaders, at the instance of Mr..
Cleveiand's campaign managers, and
in the discharge of his duty as loyal
Democrat. 1t is impossible to make
point against him on that score. It is
dlscreditable to those engaged in the
enterprise to try to make one.-Wash-
inotOn Post.

 For Trial.
 Cecil Rhodes career is regarded as ended.
 There seems to be no possible way for him to rehabilitate himself, and it is quite probable that he will be ordered home by the imperial government to stand trial with Jameson.
 His friends are profoundly apprehen- sive that such a command might result either ill the tragic terminating of his life or in his f1inging back defiance at the imperial authorities which might result in war with the mother country and the ultimate establishment of the United States of South Africa.
 The circumstances connected with Jameson's Transvaal raid daily grow more disgraceful to British good faith and national honor, since, despite the revelations of the captured cipher tele- grams, the ministerial newspapers, with The Times the most reactionary of all, continue to defend Jameson and Rhodes and intimate that the Boers must still be forced into submission.
 Here is little story current Ill tho clubs which, if true, may explain the previously cautious, self contained Cape dictator's amazing reckleSSness in all these recent proceedings:
 When ill London last year, the report goes, he fell in love with the widowed Georgina, dowager Countess of Dudley, still one of the most admired Of English beauties, although she has now been 2 grandmother for two years, This lady is said to have declined immediately and finally his offer of marriage declar- ing that she is resolved never to marry again.
