THE. ADVERTISER HIT.

Mr.. Bryan's book on the recent cam
paign is. out, and is reported to contain
the following comment as to the demo-
Gratis who refused to acknowledge him
and his platform as, democratic:
The only criticism which desire to re-
cord here Is that the gold democrats
sought to use the party name for pur-
poses of deception The party name be-
longs to the majority of the party, and
the minority cannot fairly, honestly or
honorably use that name in such way as
to mislead the voters.
I+had at all times defended the sover-
eign right of the citizen to follow his
conscience and his, judgment in political
matters and to make his party affiliat
tions conform to his convictions, but a
fraud attempted against the voters is no
more defensible than a fraud attempted
in a business transaction.
The party name does indeed belong to
a majority of the party, and the party
name also stands for certain historic
principles. traditions and precedents.
When he and others duped the majority
of the party's representatives at Chicago
into repudiating those records, they prac-
ticed the most barefaced fraud on the
rank and file of the party ever consum-
mated in the history of American politics.
The fraud attempted upon the voters of
the party by himself and other leaders
was properly resented at Indianapolis
where they exercised their sovereign right
to follow their conSciences and judg-
ments in the attempt to rescue the stand
ard of democracy from the mire of pop
acknowledgements Advertiser. 2
The hit dog howls. BY fair and
square fight against great odds the rank
and file of the democratic party won
and selected their delegates to the Chi
cago convention and instructed them to
vote for a platform that would restore
rule by the people and the money of the
constitution. gold and silver coinage indie
pendently at the ratio of 16 to l.
The democratic convention, regularly
assembled, at Chicago, then adopted a
platform in accordance with the instruc-
lions of their constituents. hoisted the
banner to its historic principles, tradi-
lions and precedents."
After the more than majority have
thus rescued the party-secured the regs
ular organization and name-it is indeed
a fraud for others to use that name Gin
such way as to mislead voters" as the
Advertiser would do again IL permitted. n;
But what. more, could be expected Of a
paper which strongly urges" those who
voted for Palmer and Buckner to go back
into the regular Democratic organization
to try to have the party abandon Its
principles for theirs, at the same time as
surfing them that il they fail they will
be "absolved from their obligation to
support the nominees" though the state
committee says they pledge themselves
to support them?-- 80

A MONUMENT TO ART.
Th Grand Tandem View of Neihart
and Old Badly Can Now Be Seen
at This Office.

All lovers of true excellence in art and
superior grandeur in nature should call
at this Office and see the new tandem
photograph of Ncihart, with the massive
form of Old Badly mountain as the man
study. This picture. to which we have
heretofore alluded, is a product of the
innate perseverance and acquired ability
of Messrs. J. II. Henley and !. c. Pyle,
who have devoted themselves with great
pains TO its completion.
1t was taken in six sections, which
match so accurately as to leave no trace
of the joining lines. The dimensions of
the entire work are S4x35 inches. 1t
presents Old Badly, i'll majestic form at
the right of the center, with its sloping
ridges gliding away to the river, the city
nestled peacefully at its base. The prin-
cipal mines about camp are all in full
view, except the Florence works, they
being eclipsed by Manitoba hill, near
which headland the artists stood.
The upper and middle portions of
Main street are in full sight, presenting
the town in splendid view as far west as
the HERALD office. The fine Frisco hotel
and adjoining blocks of buildings are
unfortunately omitted, it being impossi-
BILE to dip the instrument sufficiently far
to catch them without decapitating the
proud oldrmountain, which is meant for
the central figure of the whole.
1t is a glorious production IA monu-
ment to the achievements of modern pho
Biography, and a mark of lasting credit to
the superior skill of its authors. Mr..
Henley's camera, which made perfection
in this work possible, is the best, or one
of the best and most expensive in the
state. We invite the public to call and
see this matchless production, which
should be in every home and on every
wall in Cascade and Meagher counties.
1t will be reproduced, enlarged for the
benefit of any and all who desire Il copy.

w Allied After His Head WA on.

DR.. Loye, the French physician, who
has greatly interested himself in the
question, What passes in the head of
adecapitated human being?" relates the
following remarkable story, which he
says was taken from the archives of the
Vienna courts: 1t was in the year -
that S~choenenburg, "A well known bandit,
and four of his associates were caught
and condemned to death. They were
,.ICady on their knees ready to pay the
penalty of their bloody deeds by sub
hitting to the awful fate Of d~ecapita-
ton when Schoenenburg addressed the
judge, asking that his foul companions
might be pardoned on certain condi-
lions. eff" asked the bandit, latter |
am b~eheaded, | get up and walk to the
first OF my comrades, will you pardon
him?' The judge thought that he was
pretty safe in complying with the re-
quest. Then" continued Schooner
burg. "if | walk to the second, the
third and the fourth, will you pardon
them also?' The judge replied that if
such a miraculous feat could be per
formed he would obtain pardon for the
other three also. The bandit was now
satisfied, and, bending his head, he re-
ceived the fatal blow. Instantly the
head rolled down in the sand, but to
the surprise and horror of all present
lho headless trunk arose and walked
alone. Aimlessly, it appeared, the body
walked around until it passed the first,
the second, the third and the fourth
condemned bandit, when it fell down
and became motionless. Query, How
could a headless body think?''
