NJ. Guerin, who has gone to prison
for ten years, is the freak who locked
himself up in a Partisan house and de-
Ned the republic. He posed for some
weeks as a hero, except when he was
trying to catch hams and timed sar-
dimes which his friends threw at him
from neighboring roofs. Finally he
was starved out and incOntinently
marched to Jail. At his trial and when
called up for sentence NJ. Guerin had
several fits of heroics, but they did not
hre the popular heart, and now the
boulevard patriot will have ten tire
some years in which to think IL all
over.

A London journal points out that
there is no war in the Transvaal, all
the fighting having so far occurred in
British territory. The land of the
Beers has not seen an invading foot
print. AS three months of the cam
paign have gone by and as the British
have latterly had the use of 10000
men, these facts are most astonishing.
However, the chances are that when
Roberts and Kitchener get fairly at
work there will be another story to
tell.

The beet-growers are working hard
to keep Puerto Rican sugar off the free
list, but they may find the Cons,itu-
ton a barrier. If Puerto Rico is now
American territory, even if morgan
lied, the clause of the organic law re-
quiring tariffs to be uniform through
out the United States may apply to it..
The subject, as our readers know, is
being Investigated by Congress, and
likely enough will have to be referred
to the courts.

The Treasury Department, he will at once
discover that the present advantage
which is accruing to him comes absolute
~ directly from the tariff law now on the
statute books of the United States. And,
then, IL he desires old times, with old
prices and old short days of employment,
ne had better vote for William Jennings
Bryan.
But If the laboring man wants con
tinuation of the present prosperity of the
United States, he certainly cannot, with
out inconsistency, vote for Bryan. An
Other view of It. Let the laboring man
take the present price of his labor and
take the present prices of all the things
DE buys upon which his family is sub
sisted and supported and educated, and
then take the price of his labor of 1896
and the prices existing then, he will dis
cover, without any hesitation of intellect,
that present conditions are far better
han old conditions, that, waving the lit
lie increase of cost of living, the balance
sheet shows favorably TO him. No man
can deny that and there is no man in the
United States who has done more to
break down the interests of labor by pro-
noting and cultivsting unfair and unjust
competition than has William j. Bryan,

HARD TINES ITEMS
NEEDED BY BRYAN.
Adversely Of Others Will Be Welcome
News TO Democrats.

"Wanted-lIard times items" is a
Help Wanted" ad Bryan ought to put
in the newspapers to aid him in his la
borious search for instances OF indus
trial and commercial distress. Probably
nothing would more please him just now
than to hear Of workingmen In the coun-
try whose dinner pals are not full.
In his speech in Milwaukee he gloated
over the fact that a dock man in New
Haven had discharged some employees,
that pig iron production is sss now than
at the high point OF last year, and that
Massachusetts, cotton mill men are said
to be thinking OF reducing wages.
After exploiting on these items, he said
exulting1y: Even the prosperity that
the Republican party has boasted of has
not reached all the people, and even that
which we have is on the decline"
The reason Bryan II so anxious to
know OF misfortunes Detailing working
men is because he fears that they will
perversely consider the maintenance Of
their present prosperity to be the para
mount" issue with them instead. of sim
perialsm." IL some great calamity could
only happen TO the workingmen between
now and election tine Il would perhaps
make IL really sound plausible to say
that there Is no prosperity now; there
fore maintenance Of prosperity Is not the
issue, so you can vote for me and Agui-
naldo."
The Yale expositor., 1900-10-12
BRYAN'S MANY SIDED
HOPES And FEARS.
His Expectations Based on Hopes that
Others Will Forget.

Bryan argues that the Constitution ex-
tends in full by its own force to every
foot of land under the American flag.
lie hopes that the American people won't
find out before November that the United
States courts, from the lowest to the
highest, have decided by overwhelming
and irresistible decisions that he is
wrong.
He is running on platform declaring
for the fraud OF free silver. He hopes
that the gold Democrats who have re-
turned to the Democratic party on the
issue of Imperialism will not cease to
believe in his readiness to betray it.
He is running on platform on which
imperialism is said to be the paramount
issue. lie hopes that the silver men
won't take this portion OF the platform
seriously.
He is running as Democrat. He
hopes the Populists won't lay it up
against him.
He Is running as Populist He hopes
the Democrats will forget 1t.
He is running as a silver Republican.
He hopes that the silver Republicans,
mainly men OF the West, won't give him
up because OF their belief in expansion.
He is running as the avowed friend OF
Agunaldo. He hopes that this won't
drive the American votes against him.
SO every Democratic hope OF 1900 has
error or humbug back of it.

A CHALLENGE TO
SENATOR PETTlGREW
A Cowboy Reseuts the InslnuatiOns
Made Against Col. Roosevelt.

Sioux Falls, S. D., is Senator Petit
Crews home, and the Senator said in a
recent speech there shat Col. Roosevelt
did not lead his regiment at San Juan
Hill, but was six miles in the rear. AT
the recent Roosevelt meeting in the town
many of Col. Roosevelts old regiment
came to greet him, some OF them trav-
cling quite a distance, and one rough
rider came $50 miles. This particular
cowboy heard Of Senator Pettigrew's ut
terance for the first time while in Sioux
Falls, and mounting his horse he would
ride to street corner and issue this chal-
lenge:
Ladies and Gentlemen-I have heard
that there are people in this town who
say Col. Roosevelt was away in the rear
at San Juan and did not lead his regi-
ment In the charge that was made that
day. l was in that regiment and follow
ed Col. Roosevelt up that hill. My cap
tain was killed and several OF my com
pany. | saw that fight. l was in it.
Whoever says that COL Roosevelt did not
lead his regiment in that charge is a liar,
a scoundrel, a coward and dare not tell
me so TO my face"
Then he would wait a minute, ride TO
the next block and repeat the same chal-
lenge.
The incident will keep Senator Petit
grew quiet for awhile. He may be kept
busy in explaining what he meant.

THIRTY TONS OF PENNIES
SAVED BY CHILDREN.
wheat grower.

Chicago's Penny Savings Society has
only been established for few years,
but its deposits have increased as fol
lows:
Year ending June 30, 1898. .$19, 140
Year ending June 30, 1890. ..... $4,000
Year ending June 80, 1900. $50. 71,793
William G. HOLSTER, who Is acting
president of the Chicago Penny Savings
Society, says that it is operated entirely
on a philanthropic basis and supported
by voluntary contributions. There are
only two salaried officers, young ladies,
at the Office in the Schiller building.
This system is in operation only In half
the schools In Chicago, yet the amount
of money deposited by the children last
year averaged 80 cents for every child
In the Chicago school district, and 60
cents per capita for all the children In
the schools In which the Penny Savings
Society Is operated.
The weight Of last years savings was
thirty tons Of American pennies, an enor-
nous mass OF money for the little ones to
put by in the banks within one year.
1t will be noticed that the Increase be-
tween the amount deposited In 1893 and
1899 was 20 per cent. But between 1890
and the year just ended the increase in
the amount OF pennies deposited was con-
slderably more than 100 per cent.
The children would certainly not be
able to save their pennies IL their par
ents did not have the money to give
them, and the exhibit made by the Chi
csgo Penny Savings Society is certain
ly straw showing that the people Of
Chicago have experienced more and more
good times and prosperity during the Re
publican administration Of President Nc
Kinley,
