The New York World has asked
the Democratic regular organiza-
tion in all the States "if the Demo-
cratic national convention met to-
morrow, would William J. Bryan
be chosen as the Democratic candi-
date for President?" The replies
show Mr.. Bryan to be the choice in
forty States, and they believe that
he will not only be nominated but
elected in 1900. The World was
anti-Bryanin the last campaign and
thus comments: "This emphatic
expression of opinion is most sig
nifcant, The way in which the Re.
publicans are preparing to use the
power placed in their hands is un.
doubtedly responsible for a gooc
deal of the determined adhesion o.
the Democratst to Mr.. Bryan as theil
| leader"

wrote asking how to rear his twins

know how to rid his orchard of the
grasshoppers. The answers went
forward 10y the next mail, but by
accident he transported them into
the wrong envelopes, so that the
man with the twins received this
answer to his querry: "Cover them
carefully with straw and set fire to
it, and the little pests, after jump

He says the regular attendance is

The regular average attendance of
the public schools in this county
is far below the above average, we
regret to say, and the question is,
where does the fault lie? This is a
question for discussion that should
be brought to the attention of par
ents, for we are inclined to the opin.
ion that the fault in a great measure
is due to Indifference upon the part
of parents, who refuse or decline te
make few sacrifices so necessary
to the welfare of their children, anC
this Indifference has its influences
upon the child, and it becomes care
less in its studies and seeks excuse
to remain away from school.
