powerfully affected by the fact that he

far from good; that he showed tastes
and mental traits that stood out In
marked contrast with those of his
brothers and sisters; and that he was,
from infancy, the pet of the family.
Such daily work rs farmers lad was

he was expected to do something. and

He had set the blade Of his saw, and only

gazed carefully about the deck, and he
was sure there was no one near the boat.
Carefully he applied his saw to the swivel

Accompanying every cause there
is always found adequate effect,
therefore we must conclude that
the great shifting effect of so many
men from every department OF life
deserting the once grand old party
and casting their lot this fall with
Bryan and Stevenson is the result
of some great and just cause. 1t is
very evident that the deSertion is
going forward and that too, at a
remarkably lively rate, and the
cause is merely this, when the
once great republican party was the
pride OF this nation, and was sup>
ported by the great Corinthian COLI
umns as Lincoln, Grant. Logan and
Blaine, no such principles as Hans
naism, imperialism and discrimin>
alton against the masses by Unjust
and unrighteous legislation was
tolerated. 1t was then a party for
the people Of this great common
wealth and for their best and truest
interests, today it is the party for
the few for this almost monarchical
form of government that stands out
in bold defiance TO the masses.
Those who have remained con>
slant in their support to the G. O.
P. and kept silent in hopes that the
party that is now SO far removed
from the early teachings, would
redeem itself by returning to the
principles that made its record fam
Gus on the annals of this nations
history, have at last abandoned all
hope and will give their united
support to the election OF the great
silver party that is under that un-
PARALLEL leader, William Jennings
Bryan who will lead that great host
to victory this tall under the silver
banner Of anti-imperialism, anti
trusts and liberty for the great
masses Of liberty-loving people
