there will be sprinkling who are
at heart stalwart Republicans,
honestly believing that the future
of the Republic depends on their
party's success; they will be much
governed by the arguments OF the
Administration people that, to
throw over Mckinley would be to
acknowledge that Imperialism and
all that Mckinley stands for had
been a failure, and to enter the
campaign under those circum-
stances would be to invite defeat.
The great patronage at the
service Of the Administration, in
creased to vast proportions by the
war and the censu legislation
commissioners, and whatnot, will
hold many Il Republican patriot in
line until after the convention.
Mckinley understands this branch
Of politics to perfection, and will
devote many a day, that should be
used for the welfare OF the republic
and its people, to using it where it
will do the most good. Reed has
the railroads, the trusts, the banks,
fairly divided against Mckinley,
and the disappointed office seekers,
who are host in themselves, are
with him to a man Yet Mckinley
should win. Reed, however, is full
Of resources and has the confidence
and friendship OF large array OF
leaders Of the Republican party;
he is a slayer, and will say like
Macbeth: clay on Macduff and
damned be he that first cries, hold,

A GOOD PLATFORM.

1. Direct legislation or the in
itiative and referendum.
(The question OF whether we are
to have peoples government is
greater than any question Of adj
ministration of hypothetical
government.)
2. The right to issue currency
must be taken from the banks and
the government must issue all
money and make it all equally a
full legal tender, and must abolish
the fraudulent pretense Of redeem-
ing one kind of money with another
kind of money.
3. We demand the public owner

abode uuch like hollow log. Here he
studies and writes and receives visitors.
In such aplace the birds, squirrels, hares.
and foxes are near at hand and he can
study them with out the least fear OF
molesting them. This quaint resort he
calls Slab SIDES and thus it is known far
and near. He made a visit to Europe
and tariied long at Stratford on Avon,
the home OF the immortal Shakespeare.
His account OF the simple folk OF that old
town was well pictured by one of the
young ladies. Mr.. Burroughs like many
other noted persons. began as common
school teacher, fact which may lead
the students to regard him all the more
favorably. At the conclusion Mr..
Tucker the president OF the society read
letter from Mr.. Burroughs, in answer
to an invitation, sent him from the
Normal. to call here and address them
on his proposed visit to the Pacific
Coast. Thus the Crescent closed very
profitable year in the study OF oratory
and literature.
