Silver was exported in the month

as if the old world thought great

1t seems that nothing can check
the growing popularity of w. j.
Bryan. When he was madej the
candidate of the Democratic party
one year ago, he was the idol of
the masses, as was shown by the
thousands who focked to see and
hear him as he went about the
country. His popularity has not
abated one jot or title since. While
there is a pleasantness and much
personal magnetism about the man,
his great popularity rests princi-
pally on the cause of which he is
the admitted champion. In 1900
all of the forces opposed to the
gold monopoly will readily con-
centrate on Mr.. Bryan for Presi-
dent and he will be triumphantly
elected.-Wayne News.

States, in all the world, celebrate a
day analogous to the Fourth of
July, as day of jubiIation and
congratulation, asthe recurTent an
niversary Of nation's birthday, for
that In truth, it is. And this not
because others have not the occa
sion so to do, for the same impulse
which gave Washington to Amer
lea, gave also a Cromwell to Eng
land, Garibaldi to Italy, Kos
suth to Austria, Gustavus Adolf
plus to Scandinavia, and made
possible the revolution in France,
but because in the latter instances
that which was accomplished, while
relatively momentous, was not as
far-reaching, significant and ire
vocable as that act of l776, which
out of Heterogeneous materials
welded a new nation, destined to
dominate the civilized world and
devise newer government of men.
1t was the desire of freedom, of
liberty and independence that ac-
tuated all the heroes named, and
while those points were gained, it
yet remained for Washington and
the signers of the Immortal Dec
laration to go further and, while
asserting the abstract principles of
freedom and independence, to bring
into being nation that should be
then and for all time free and in
dependent. 1t has been truly said,

death as well as life. 1t is a
monument of old epochs-as well
as milestone along the way to the
highest form of liberty under the
law; it is dream become reality,
vision made substance.
All that America is she has be-
come in hundred and twenty-one
years, and each returning Fourth
marks a wondrous progress, and
the nation which SO short while
ago conquered the difficulties of
the painless wilderness, spread far
and wide the encircling bands of
commerce, trade and industry; with
science and invention disclosed the
wonders of the age and with art
adorned the palaces of her people,
today stands mighty among the
mightiest and so far in the van of
progress that all the nations of the
world stand breathless, painting in
her wake.
If it calls to naught else but this
the Fourth of July is day to be
held in respectful veneration, hon
ored and esteemed, as suggesting
the glorious past and the certain
future. And, as has been well
said, with the sound of the bells
that from every valley and hilltop
proclaim to the people of the earth
the story of our liberty there is
mingled the thanksgiving of the
nation. Our prairies are not wider
than our love of country; our
mountains are not frmer than our
loyalty, and with courage and hope
we face new eras, confident that
this great people will furnish the
bulwark against peril from without
and from within.

A tax of dollar barrel addi-
tional on beer would put $30,o0o,-
600 year in the treasury as easy
as rolling off log. And there is
no commodity in the United States
that would SO easily bear taxation
and consequently could be SO justly
taxed. The additional tax would
not fall on the retailer nor on the
consumer. 1t would have to be
borne by the brewers, and they can
stand it. But there are big brew
ing interests in Cincinnati and

1.-THE tariff bill is practically com

100000 annually in the pockets of
the manufacturers and the favored
classes, and it will not produce
revenue enough to run the govern
ment. The whole theory of the
bill has been to reimburse those
who contributed to Hanna's cam
paign fund last year. 1t will be
demonstrated later ON that high
duties will not produce revenue
sufficient for the needs of the gov
eminent, but only keep up the
prices of necessaries to the consul
mer. We viii have to resort to in
