A BRYAN ENTHUSIAST.
Master Earl KensIer Writes to Bryan
and Gets a Reply.

One of the most enthusiastic Bryan
enthusiasts in the county was Master Earl
Kensler, the 12-year-old nephew of Mr..
David Slusher. The young man read
every speech the great silver chieftain
made in the campaign. When Bryan
was defeated Master Earl tool it harder
than anyone, unless it was the post Office
candidates. OF his own accord he wrote
the defeated candidate congratulating him
upon the fight he made and forecasting
victory in 1909. Mr.. Bryan replied as fol-
lows:

Windsor, one of the oldest

left with homes. The loss is es-
timated at $3,0O0,000, and the

DR.. Hartzell, the American
Methodist Episcopal Bishop of
West Africa, in an interview, en-
phasized the increasing dangers
Of the situation in West Africa
owing to the activity of the
French authorities. The Bishop
says that unless the best states
manship is brought to bear upon
the African problem the Europe
an wars OF the next century will
be fought en- that continent. He
suggests as the best solution of
the problem that Great Britain
should give Germany Walsh bay
and give France ABhantee, Bat.
hurst and all rights in Morocco
and Algiers, France on her part
Withdrawing all her claims in
Egypt, (which England cannot
surrender" The Bishop adds
that there is no doubt King Leo
pold of Belgium is resolved to
take over the Congo Free State as
a Belgian colony in 1900.
