Sample Of Bryan's Promises.
Aberdeen News.

## AbCfNSCh NBNs
William J.. Bryan told the people last
night that il he was elected president
the people would be given the right to
United States senators by direct
vote, and while he did not say so in direct
language, he left the impression that the
republican party is opposed to this
change. IL he had wanted to deal hon
estly with his audience he would have
said that a bill for a constitutional amend
nent for this purpose passed the house
by unanimous vote at the last session and
S now pending before the senate. The
unanimous vote shows the republican
party favors the measure. Ii he had
skny desire to be honest he would also
pave said that neither congress nor the
president has power to bring about this
Ehange. The most congress can do is 20
ass a proposed amendment to the con.
~titution for submission to the several
stes. This done, the proposed amend
eaent can go into effect only after three
purths Of the states have ratified il
trough their legislatures or through
oaventions. Mr.. Bryan arrogates great
ower to himself in the event of his cleo
,n, but he viii scarcely be able to amend
e constitution of the United States.

VIII Vote for Mckinley.
London Cable to New York Herald.

London Cable to New York Herald.
Archbishop Ireland of st. Paul in an
Interview announced his intention Of
voting for Mckinley. The American
prelate said he was hurrying home to
lend the support of his vote and influence
to the republican cause. He said:
There is more than the ordinary need
of party loyalty this year. The admins
fration upon which the country is asked
TO pass judgment has been and is now
confronted with problems OF domestic
and foreign policy which, to a certain
degree, put Americans on trial before
the world. These problems, l believe,
the administration has handled with sa.
gacity, craftsmanship, patriotism, and in
a manner which deserves the ap prevail
OF the American people.

An Open Confession.
Pierpont Signal.

fierpont Signal.
A gentleman who has been with the
populist party ever since its birth, who
has been closely connected with the inner
workings Of that party, made the follow
ing statement to the editor recently:
f'The old principles Of the populist party
are a thing of the past. Every prophecy
made by that party four years ago was
false, Every statement and prophecy
made by myself upon the stump four
years ago has been proven false, and /
am willing to confess itm This by a Day
county voter, and it only expresses the
sentiment of many a populist voter who
has not the courage to announce it pub
1icly, but will announce itnext November
at the polls.

The Colorado mob fought Roosevelt
with the cry: "Bryan and ~silver!" They
revealed directly the source of their in.
SEPARATION for the brutal assault and at
tempt to strangle free speech. "Bryan

These cries, accompanied by yolleys of
stones and sticks, exposed the source
from which they were inspired and are
but the natural and legitimate outcome
of the constant appeals to prejudice and
passion which have constituted Mr..
Bryan's chief stock in trade from the

THE REGENT DIAMOND.
II Is Acknowledged the Most Perfect
Brilliant In Existence.

Briiiiant In Existence.
The Pitt" Tor Regent" as it was
afterws.ri called is the most perfect
brilliant in existence, and its history is
also very remarkable. 1t is said to
nave been found by a slave in the Par
teal mines in 1T01, who to retain his
treasure cut a hole in the calf of his
leg, in which he concealed it, although
1t Is more probable he secreted it
among the bandages. The slave es-
capped to the coast with his find, where
he encountered an English skipper,
whom he made his confdant. offering,
indeed, to bestow upon him the stone in
return for his liberty. The mariner,
apparently consenting to the slaves
proposal. took him u to sea and when
there drowned him, after obtaining
possession Of the diamond. Disposing
of the gem TO a diamond merchant for
E1,000, it is said the man afterward
hanged himself in a fit of remorse.
Mr.. Pitt, governor OF Fort st. George
and great-grandfather Of the illustrious
William Pitt, became the mex pos
SCISSOR of this valuable stone, weighing
40 carats, for 10000. lie sem 1t to
London, where he had it very skillfully
cut at a cost of $4,000, the process oc-
cupylng two years. Pitt appears to
