THE COMING BATTLE.

Bryan or Mckinley. That's the
question, says the Albany Herald.
Left to express their preference
without hindrance or interference
of any kind, we believe the voters
of the country would elect Mr..
Bryan on the 9th of November by
an overwhelming majority. We
believe the people recognize in him
all that could be desired in any
chief executive of this republic
He is a typical Americana man
who stands for all that is cleanest
and purest III politics, and one
whose absolute sincerity cannot be
questioned. He lodges no issue,
and if elected he will be influenced
in his administration by no selfish
advisers to whom he has made
ante election promises or to whom
he has been placed under embar.
assing political obligations.
But there is no hope that the
republican party, in its tremen-
dous efforts to continue in control
of the government, will leave the
voters to choose, unhindered, for
themselves. With the practically
unlimited wealth of trust and
combination of capital in the
country at its back, the republi-
can party will have. millions to
spend i'll the doubtful states. viii
the avarice of the purchasable
voters prove stronger than
their convictions of duty?. Gay,
there's the rub, T." and theron hangs
the fate of democracy. 1t will be
republican millions for corruption
against the appeal of democracy
for an honest, interrupted gov
eminent. Which will win? WI
can answer? Despite the great
campaign fund of the republicans,
we believe the chances for demo-
cratic victory are excellent, for
the number of the American citi-
zens who can he induced to part
with principle for the sake of gold
is, happily, limited.

A South Side man residing in a
big apartment house has been
robbed two or three times in the
past year and finally grew tired of
it and set about devising some
means of warding off the robbers,
which would not necessitate some
one remaining i'll the fiat every
evening, says the Chicago Chron-
icle. Not only does he leave the
gas lighted, but he has purchased
a photograph which talks in loud
and resonant tones for a time and
then throws out a few remarks IN
q deeper voice, accompanied by
much laughter. The record is
that of conversation between
two men and was made to order.
The listener outside the door OF
the flat would swear two large,1
burly men were in the room, and
as the conversation is a long one
relative to the ease with which
one Of the men threw two 6ther
men downstairs few nights be-
fore, it is calculated to make q
burglar pause and reflect. A
megaphone horn is attached to
the machine, which increases the
volume of the voices, and when
the owner of the device wishes to
take his wife to the theatre he sets
the repeat switch, which will re-
produce the conversation as long
as the battery lasts, turns on the
machine and goes blithely away.
he has not been robbed since he
invented the device.

The climate of the Philippine
island and military service there
seem to constitute a terrible test
of human vitality. The deaths
from diseases are about 1000 per
month of good American men,
chiefly young men. There have
been reported 100 cases of insanity
and more than 100 suicides among
the men of our army in these far
away isles Of the sea. This is a
fearful record. Even if none of
our soldiers were killed or wounded
in battle the fatalities are more
than we can afford, and the terri
bic hardships of oprivate soldiers
are indicated by insanity and sui
eide in terms more forcible than
any combination of words.
