Bryan is for Bryan on Bryan platform
devoted to Bryan's interests.-Plainfield
Progress
OF course there were no strikes three or
four years. ago. Laboring men had nothing Ing
to strike for only strike out and look for
a job.-Seymour Republican.
True Democracy consists of advocating
anything that will catch votes. The DEM
ocratic party caters for votes regardless Of
principle and then seeks to hold Its fellows
in line with the plea of party regularity.
-Danville Republican.
Three years ago this time the Bryanites
were rushing about the country predicting
of Major Mckinley. His election came,
and now a plethora instead of famine of
gold is the of the compatibility
mouth Republican.
The Democratic party is like the "dog
that bays the MOON" The dog doesn't know
what the moon Is and 1t doesn't know why
it bays; The Democratic party doesn't
know what constitutes the sun or prosperity
nor why 1t howls when the sun is shining.
-Williamsport Review.
William ]. Bryan is scurrying over the
country. jumping hither and thither. deliv-
ering political harangues, seeking by such
methods to become President. Is that the
kind of a man the solid. substantial Demo-
Gratis of this country want elevated to the
dignified and exalted position of chief magis-
| d
Republican.
Col Bryan recently said that all Demo-
Gratis looked alike to him. There are Dem
ocrats right here in Kokomo who are ready
to swear that the colonel is color blind,
for while they were Democrats before he
was and now believe that they are better
Democrats than he is or ever Will be, they
claim no kinship with the 16-to-1 crowd.
-Kokomo News
The strike fever that is having an cpl
demic all over the country is not so much
an illustration OF the dissatisfaction of work
ingmen as ii Is that the walking delegate
is beginning to get ris breath after il. was
knocked out of him by the Cleveland ad-
minstration. WorkingInen should consider
we'll before listening to the .specious argu-
ments of these men who thrive on the mis-
would be averted If the wives OF working
men were admitted to the discussion and
settlement. Arbitration would then prevail.
The strikes and the mobs attached there
to are the most disgracefu as well as alarm
ing features of our present civilization. For
weeks the people of Cleveland have been
held up and terrorzed by mobs that would
have been disgrace in the dark
| ages. The civil authorities have been
unable to preserve peace and main
tain order and the militia Of the State OF
Ohio has been called upon for aid. As mobs
are composed of towards the sight OF swords
| and guns has somewhat allayed the tur-
bulent spirit of these rioters. But what a
deplorable condition IL is when a great city
| like Cleveland cannot govern itself.-Nobles-
vile Ledger.

born last Saturday afternoon to Mr.. and
Mrs. Simeon Shore. who reside four miles

active as ordinary youngsters and bid fair
