The Par Issue of the Cam
pd'gn.

Senator J. p. Dollive= In the October Forum.
IL will he admitted by every one
whose mind Is at all adapted to the
consideration of such a subject. that
the last four years have played sad
havoc with the prophetic literature OF
sIr. Bryan's last campaign. II the
patriarch Noah had predicted n
drought instead of d deluge, and had
advocated Il system of irrigation in
stead of building an ark, his friends
and relatives would have had less rea-
son to complain of him than MIR. Bry-
ans disciples now have to complain
of their leader. He said that il the
gold standard were continued prices
would still further decline. But the
prices of all products of labor have
gone steadily up. He said that wages
would decrease and the employment
OF people. even the precarious. would
still further fail. But wages have in
creased until. if we may believe Mr..
Carroll ID. Wright. they have reached
the highest mark yet known in our
industrial history. while the employ
ment of the people is now universal
and uninterrupted. Mr.. Bryan said
that the burden of debt would be null
tiplied by the increase of interest rates
and the scarcity of money. But mon
ey was never so plentiful. and interest
rates. tneding still lower. were never
so low before.
II is not claimed that things are GO
ing as well in the United States as
could be wished: but il is not too much
to- say that things are going so much
better than Mr.. Bryan predicted that
the general confidence in him as an
apostle OF the national deliverance has
quite generally disappeared. Nobody

of the free coinage of silver were sin
cere. and that very fact determines
the issue of this campaign. There may
he n wide difference of opinion as to
, the causes of the present prosperity of
the people: but there is one thing
which cannot he disputed. and that
is. that the standard of value upon
which the whole fabric of American
business rests cannot be disturbed or
even put in serious jeopardy. without
producing results fatal to- the employ
ment. Investments. and enterprises of
the whole community. The democrat
ic party h1s not put aside the silver

begun talking about something else.
simply because the old subject has
I become tire.om and because the and
fence is so scattered that it is beyond
even the elOuuence of Mr. Bryan to
bring them together again.
II any man doubts the real purpose
that is in the minds of democratic
, leaders. and the real motive that
would control Mr.. Bryan's administra-
ton. if he We're elected president let
him recall the fact that while the Kan
sas City convention was sitting Mr.
Bryan staked his political life on de-
mand. telephoned from his home at

AMERICAN MISSIONARY ASSOCIATION
The South Has Taxed Herself Heavily to
Educate Negroes"
(By Associated Press. J

Springfield Mass. Oct 25.-At the
morning session of the american Mission
ary Association, Prof Samuel T. Dutton,
of Columbia College. New York, presented
review of the annual report of the exc
cutive committee, in part as follows:
This association, both in theory and
practice. recognizes the saving power of
Christian education, while not discount
ing in any way the value of churches and
preaching. In this field of educational
effort there is a clear recognition of the
social and economic needs of the South,
and young women are being cultivated in
everything that pertains to home keep
ing and to wholesome living while young
men are being taught elements of in
dustry as well as specific trades which
will prepare them to pass directly from
school to lives of productive labor.
Already there have come W from the
South, largely through the channels Of
natural ability and liberal culture. men
who can take their place among the
colored people as honored leaders. If we

ored people more tolerable than that of

slavery, we must grant to every member
of the race freedom in thought and ac-
tion, freedom guided by an educational
intelligence and a freedom which comes
from the ability to pursue the path in
life for which one is best fitted.
while we are thankful to the forces
of philanthrophy and religion in the
North, which have been able to do so
much in planting schools and churches
and lifting the colored race up to level
OF self-respect. the South has not failed
in doing its part. Considering their means,
they have taxed themselves heavily for
the support of schools and have afforded
nearly, If not quite. equal advantages to
the children OF the former slaves. The
public school system, through the energy
Of wise leaders, men of the higher educa-
tion and skill, is gradually becoming per-
fected and is destined to become in the
South as it is in the North"

TEDDY IN NEW YORK
He Defends the Canal
Thieves.
Says the Canals Are Managed With Absolute
Honesty and Metcalf Who Threatens
to Shut Down is All Right.
(By the Associated Press.)

Syracuse, N. Y. Oct. 25-The closing
speeches of an arduous day in the Roose-
welt campaign were made at Auburn and
Syracuse, after jumps through widely di-
vergent counties. Altogether it was a
favorable day, because, while in Auburn
and Syracuse there were several inter-
ruptions, the questions and answers were
rather in a good natured form, and there
was no friction which indicated a desire
on the part of either questioner or an
swerer TO enter into a personal contro-
versv.
Syracuse itself was a blaze of light
while thousands of people thronged the
streets. The auditorium where the
speech making was held and the square
where the outside meeting took place
were both much too small to accommo-
date those who desired to hear Governor
Roosevelt
In Auburn three meetings had to be
held to accommodate the people. 1t was
at this place that the first serious inter-
ruption of the day occurred. The Cover
nor had started at the first meeting
upon an exposition of the trust question.
How about Metcalf?" came the inter-
ruotion.
"Metc4lf," said the Governor, in a puz-
zled tone, then remembering that Mr..
Metcalf was president of the l. NJ. Os-
borne machine shops and had threatened
to shut them down If Mr.. Bryan was elect
ed. Re said:
"Metcalf is all right. If Mr.. Bryan was
half as right he would be fortunate"
How about the canals?" came from
the gallery before the Governor could pro-
ceee
Il will answer you once for ALL said the
the. Governor" do you mean in this
State?"
Yes" came the reply back.
Il answer" said the Governor" that
they are managed with absolute honesty
and efficiency as you know, If you know
anything about them"

deciding upon general raise in advertis-
Ing rates, The afternoon was spent pre-
pairing a schedule of advertising rates
upon a circulation basis. This schedule
will be2sent to all. the publishers in Min
nesota, and lie approved by Is per cent
it will be considered adopted, and many
papers will thereby secure more for their
advertising than they have In the past.
while other publications charging high
rate will abide by the schedule.
The editors decided 70 work harmoni-
ously for foreign advertising and with
that end they will in the future have one
man at a central office to look out for
this class Of business. w. r. Estes,
of Madelia. acted as chairman, and e.

aspirations to confess themselves as to
print a portrait OF himself in his own
paper, accompanied by certain reasons
why. he thinks, his compatriots OF the
Sixth district should send him to con-
gress. The most serious are these:
The duty OF chief Importance to the
convention Is to pick a sure-enough win
ner, and take no chances. Many federal
oft1ceholders are blinded to the real in
terests of the party. and often for per-
sonal ends bring their party to defeat.
Broader views should prevail when great
principles are at stake, and tho appetite
or the spoilsmen should MT be permitted
to dictate the action of conventions.

short. pithy talking that gets results in

Because a change seems necessary to

Because If nominated he would sure

the largest number of votes cast, for any
OF the candidates for this Office. All the
new men nominated We're given the tail
end of the division, Assemblyman Dix,
who was at the city clerks Office yester-
day afternoon, said there was really
nothing to argue about, and, while the
first name on the ticket might get a few
more votes than the ninth, he was salts
fled to take his chances anywhere, so
long as the others were satisfied. He
called attention to the fact that Assem-
blyman Albrecht.s name, two years ago,
was seventh in the list Of nine, and yet
he received next to the highest vote OF
any Of the candidates for the assembly
The candidates will probably get to-
gether and settle the question among
themselves and then advise the city clerk
as to the results.
C. w. Stanton, of Appleton, was call
err at the state house yesterday and paid
his respects to the governor. Mr.. STAN
ton, when asked regarding the rural sem
timent upon the Puerto Rico tariff BILL
said:
Discussion OF the bill has been much
more general In the country than would
be supposed. There has been no measure
of national Importance that has so alb
sorbed the attention Of the people gen.
orally. and the farmers are no excep-
ton.
"There is no division Of sentiment out
our way, and this is very probably
strengthened by the position taken by
Senators Davis and Nelson. Congress is
trying to impose the same sort of a bur-
den on Puerto Rico that our forefathers
fed from England to avoid"
After much earnest thought and pray
erful preparation. J. Adam Bede has at
