BRYAN ON THE SOUTH AFRICAN
WAR.

Suppose Colonel Bryan were chief ex-
ecutive Of the nation at this time.
Does anybody believe that, in the ca
pacity of the president Of the United
States. he would intervene in the Boer
war? Suppose that the United States
had not acquired the Philippines, would
Colonel Bryan advocate Intervention
between Great Britain and the Trans
vaal and make that an issue in his race
for the Office OF president? Judging by
what he says, he would do so. Indeed,
II the Philippine war is wrong, because
it prevents American intervention in
Africa, the direct inference is that,
were the United States not engaged in
establishing peace in Luzon, Colonel
Bryan would favor stepping in between
the Britons and the Beers.
Every intelligent man, regardless of
politics, knows that Colonel Bryan il
making declarations in regard to the
war in South Africa for campaign pur-
poses, without any idea that he would
do what he advocates were he in Mr..
McKinley's shoes. This being the case,
he is INDUCING in pure demagogy,
which should not be accounted by the
democratic party as popular qualifi-
cation in a man who assumes to be
its leader and who desires to be presi-
dent OF the United States. .a.-

THE REPUBLICAN COUNTY
TICKET.

81 The republicans of Wapello county
never presented to the voters a strong
er or more worthy ticket than shat
which has been placed in nomination
this year. 1t is conceded ON every
( hand that Hon. A. w. Buchanan will
make one of the strongest members
of the house that has ever been sent
to Des Moines from Wapello county.
Mr.. Buchanan is known to be man
Of rare good common sense, and pos
sesses special strength along the line
Of securing desirable legislation and re-
straining and preventing that which
is; not. Mr.. Buchanan will, we be-
lieye, receive the largest majority that
has been given a republican member
sfof the legislature from this county for
many years.
(. John H. Spry, county treasurer, has
been in every respect a model official.
Hard working, courteous, attentive to
every duty, and at all times looking at
ter the interest of the taxpayers as a
whole and the best public good. Mr..
Spry's conduct of the treasurer's Of
fee has won him host of warm
friends and supporters from the oppo-
sition party, and he is conceded a
large majority on election day.
OF B. r. SHUTS, county sheriff, it can
be also said that he has been model
official. The expenses of the office
have been kept down to a minimum,
and every duty has been faithfully,
fearlessly and promptly performed.
Mr.. SHUTS and Mr.. spry are the kind
of officials who are deserving of the
most hearty support of all the people,
for they have looked carefully after
the interests of the public, and have
never faltered, or failed, in any duty.
OF the other splendid names on the
county ticket the Courier will speak
in another issue. Il
