C0I. WILLIAM. J. BRYAN

Hon. William Jennings Bryan, seems 10 be growing III popular favor every day. And there is an almost universa demand for his renomination for the presidency in 1900. The lustre of his name is undimmed by defeat and he is the popular idol of the people today. W hen, among others, his regiment passed in review before Gen. Lee, at Jacksonville, few days ago the people went wild and rent the air withstheir shouts. Wherever he goes he IS given an ovation and is proclaimed the chief among mon. He is no doubt one of the very ablest, purest and most patrotic men this country ever produced and we don't believe there is any power on earth, tha. can stay Il @ tide that has turned in his direc- tion and that will sweep him into the presidential char in 1900. Several states have already dc clared for him for president and we believe state after state will continue to do so and that when thes national convention eonvenes in 1900 that he will be nominated by exclamation and be elected by tho largest popular majority that ever swept over the country. -Morehouse Clarion

Now, that the election is over and there is not great deal of cause for general excitement, 1t might be a capital idea for our farmers to turn their attention to grain-sowing Turf oats and winter wheat should be sowed now, without stint. These are crops that will pay any farmer better than cotton.
