Is to l without waiting for the aid
or consent of any other nation
But for the prolonged agony over
that plank the convention would
have moved through it's work with,
out a jar. There was no other
point of contest. Bryan was asked
for no other concession. But he
had the Democratic party, or such
remnant of it as remains, at his
feet, and he exacted from it the ut
most subordination to his own
political views and Populist afilia-
tons. In all human probability
every state that rejected free coin-
age four years ago will do it again
in November, and there are states
that supported it before that regard
it as a lost and %deservedly beaten
cause. All the arguments upon
which it was urged four,years ago
have been dispo we'd. The gold
standard is an accomplished fact,
based upon a splendid prosperity.
In every continent the drift has
been away from silver as a fnan-
cial standard. The world has
ceased to think of it. But the
Democratic party is chained to it
anew against its better Judgment.
The false step of four years ago
has led to another. that is worse,
and which, from the standpoint of
sober reason, must be regarded as
suicidal. As for the rest of the
platform the convention gave it
little attention, and it is worth
little. The talk about imperialism
is cant. None exists, except in
the imagination of demogogues.
The plank on trusts is inferior to
that in the Republican platform,
and the latter mean something
practical. Hundreds of thousands
Of Democratic voters will ~repudiate
the work of the Kansas City con-
vention. Bryan turned a face Of
stone to their overtures, and they
will be as obdurate in November
as he in July.

Grand Forks Wins.

The game of ball between Grand
Forks and the home team, although
somewhat one-sided, was in many
respects a good game. Aside from
the fact that Flanagan was hit
rather hard, the home team played
in hard luck otherwise the score
would have been much closer.
Grand Forks commenced to
score in the first inning. Ball
reached first on a passed ball, w.
Hanarhan made a single, followed
by a two base hit by Mcneil, and
before the side was retired, three
runs had been scored.
Grand Forks also made one in
the second by an error, a sacrifice,
and a single and two in the third
by clean hits.
The home team did not score
till the fourth, when Hartly made
a clean single, stole second, was
advanced a base on Ovens single,
and scored on single by Flanagan.
In the fifth Flanagan was touched
up for four hits, and two errors
behind him gave the Grand Forks
team four runs.
In the sixth the home team
broke into the game again, scoring
three runs. Hartly got first by
being hit by pitcher and immedi-
ately stole second. Flanagan got
first on an error, Slette made a
single scoring Hartly and Clemens
made a beautiful two base hit
scoring two more.
Grand Forks made two more in
the 7th and one in the 9Th after
which neither side scored.
Score by innings.

T. S. Edison Dead.

Just before midnight Wednes-
day T. S. Edison breathed his
last at the Deaconess hospital in
Grand Forks. The end was not
unsupported, as the physicians
had given up all hopes of his re-
covery Sunday. Nevertheless,
when the sad news was whispered
around, it came as a shock to
many. The deceased was one of
the most prominent residents of
Grand Forks county, and no one
in the county had a larger circle
of friends or fewer enemies, For
years he had been prominent in
business, political and social cir
cles, and his death leaves a vacan-
cy that cannot be filed. It is safe
to say that no man in the county
was more generally respected and
beloved, and this fact was eviden-
ced by the crowds of friends that
lowered near his bedside since he
was taken to the hospital a few
short days ago. His family was
all at his bedside when he breathed
his last, as we'll as many of his
friends, all Of whom had chung to
the vain hope that he would per-
haps rally at the last and perhaps
recover. He belonged to several
prominent fraternal organizations,
under the auspices of which the
funeral services were held.

Peking, the United States will
hesitate to go further than to de-
mand proper indemnity. To agree
with Europe that China shall be
laid waste, thus satisfying the
natural spirit Of revenge which
first animates the human breast,
would not be in keeping with the
policy Of this country. And as to
an agreement that China shall be
partitioned among the SO called
"allied powers" (which in this case
includes the United States) such a
thing is not to be thought of. We
shall preserve our former attitude
toward China, sustaining friendly
relations even in the face Of al
most unbearable offenses against
our citizens. Any other course
would lead us into troubles beside
which the Philippine incident is
too small for comparison. It is
not a case in which 'our honor
must be wiped out in blood" or
one in which territorial prizes are
to be considered.

THE OLD FIGHT AGAIN.

A beaten candidate and a beat
en- issue are adopted by the Dem
ocratic party for another trial,
says the st. Louis Globe Demo-
Graf. Again 16 to l is to be the
battle cry, and an attempt to de-
base the currency the issue urged
upon the people. It is a fact ap-
parent to all that a majority of
delegates in the Democratic con-
vention were opposed to a distinct
declaration for the old ratio. But
the grip upon the party of Bryan
and of Populism is too powerful
to be relaxed. The convention
dared not dispute anything that
Bryan demanded. It dared not
break with him. It put into the
platform every word hat he want
ed there and some that it knew
would lead to another crushing
condemnation by the people. But
with merciless Indifference to the
existence Of the Democratic party
as a separate organization Bryan
bent it to his will. He held over
it his nomination by another party
and his purpose to run in any
event on a platform of his own
choosing. Knowing it's own
weakness, the Democratic. party
shrank from an attempt to stand
alone on it's merits. Conquered
by Populistic principles in 1896 it
goes down before them again, and
its fall is far more humiliating
than before.
It is vain to pretend that there
is any issue in the platform: of the
same significance as 16 to l.
That plank alone kept the conyen-
ton in a state of high tension for
two days and through an all-night
session Of the committee on reso-
lutions. Hundreds of messages
went to Nebraska imploring the
master of the party to yield on
this point. He refused, and SO
the platform demands '.the imme-
diate restoration of the free and
unlimited coinage of silver and
gold at the present legal ratio of

STAND BY THE TICKET.

1t is seldom that a great politi-
cal convention, held for the pur-
pose of nominating candidates for
public Office, closes WITHOUT leav-
ing here and there a sore spot, and
the gathering of North Dakota
Republicans in Grand Forks last
week, proved no exception to the
rule. The defeated aspirants and
their friends feel chagrined, but
they are still Republicans, and
will, if we are not mistaken, stand
manfully by their c%olors, notwith-
standing the disappointment to
which they have been subjected.
The ticket placed in nomination
is composed Of representative Re-
publicans, men who themselves
have been in the habit of standing
by the party in every contest, and
who, therefore, are entitled to the
support Of every other loyal Re-
publican.
True there were other favorite
sons whose strong followings were
DESTROYS Of seeing their names

our duty as consistent and faith.
full Republicans to turn in and do
all in our power to help elect it.

THE TICKET.

Lakota Herald: The personnel
of the state ticket nominated by
the Republican convention at
Grand Forks is such that it will be
elected. This portion of the state
is particularly well pleased over
the nomination of Judge D. F.
Morgan for the supreme bench.
Churchs Ferry Sun: The ac-
ton of the convention is being Sc
verely criticised, and if the Demo-
cratic party uses good judgment
in the selection of candidates for
state Offices, they will materially
reduce the Republican majority
of this state, if they do not actu-
ally elect their nominees,
Bismarck Tribune: There can
be no question Of the ability
of the men nominated or
the excellence of the personnel of
the ticket. The leaving out of the
four big counties Of the valley was
one Of the results of the hot fight,
in which it was necessary for the
smaller counties to form a close
combination and husband every
resurce. When it came to a matter
of dictation of the ticket. between
the western and central part,of the
state and the Red River valley,
the smaller counties combined and
won.
New Rockford Transcript: Since
Congressman Spalding had to be
supplanted on the Republican
ticket everybody will be better
pleased to see Hon. T. F. Marshall
the nominee than any other per-
son in the state.
Minot Reporter: The Republi-
can State Convention is now a
matter Of history and a thing of
the past. While we of Ward coun-
ty did not get what we wanted,
yet we are. of that kind that can
gracefully take our medicine and
fight our battles cut in our own
ranks. We therefore bow to the
will of the majority and are in the
fight for the success of the ticket
nominated. The personnel of tho
ticket is good and no matter who

jority of the names that now ap-
pearsthereon would have appeared

Buffalo Express: The conven-
ton was a large and representative
gathering of the Republicans of

Charley Stone has concluded
that running a Democratic paper
in North Dakota is not a paying
venture, and has wisely changed
both the name and politics of the
Casselton Democrat. The paper
is now known as "The Eye" and

politics.

RUBBING THE SORE SPOTS.

UcA0Ao14<o I'LL 0JNH SIOlSs
The Democrats of North Dako-
ia have but one hope. They know
they do not deserve success and
cannot achieve it on the merits of
the issues which they will present
to the people of the state. But
they perceive what they mistake
for assign of encouragement. They
think that certain Republicans are
feeling a little sore since their
state convention was held, and the
Democratic theory of conducting
the campaign is to keep rubbing
these sore spots. They have gone
about the task in earnest. Hav-
ing no qualities within themselves
that invite victory, they will try to
secure it by stirring up dissensions
in the Republican ranks, but it
will not work. The Republicans
readily perceive what is the
scheme of the common enemy and
will Illustrate it. They will get
together as they have seldom done
before and will elect the entire
state ticket by an overwhelming
majority. Our Democratic friends
are destined to discover the sore
rubbing process an improbable
occupation in which to engage,
for it will yiedl them no returns.
Out of the nasty business they
will realize nothing except blasted
hopes and disappointed ambitions.

Hobson Goes to Alabama.
(By the Associated Press.1

Washington, Sept. 26.-Lieutenant
Richmond p Hobson, of Merrimac fame,
who has just returned from his work
in the Orient, passed through Washing
ton today on his way to Alabama to visit
his relatives. Before starting South he
reported at the New York Navy Yard
where he has been ordered as assistant
to Constructor Bowles, in charge of that
yard, He obtained leave of absence for
the purpose of visiting his family.
While here Mr.. Hobson again reitera-
ted his denials of any intention to re-
fleet upon the work of Admiral Deweys
fleet in his Vancouver interview concern
ing the injuries sustained by the Spanish
ships Mr.. Hobson has not received the
reward which the Secretary of the Navy
recommends for his heroic work in San
tiago harbor. The Secretary recon-
mcnded that he be advanced eight num-
bers for that exploit, and it is probable
that the recommendation will be renewed
in his annual report. 1t is understood
that Mr.. Hobson, who has a fondness for
line duty, would prefer to be transferred
to the line and have his advancement
made there instead of in the staff. and il
is probable that an effort will be made
to comply with his wishes in this re-
Spect.

Mr.. Mclean was frequently cheered,
and his speech received rapt attention.
Mr.. b. {. neclwith, elector for the
Fourth district, followed in very
clear speech that presented the issues
of the campaign in way that could
not be misunderstood. He is much
mere careful in his statement than
the average campaigner, and his prop
ositions are always explicit and clear
cut. He made votes for the party by
his speech. He said in part:
"All expansion of this country has
come through under Democratic rule,
except in one instance, and that, ac-
cording to Senator Vance, is an expan-
sion of nine months winter and three
months damnation cold weather. /

campaign, and will canvass the dis.

people, and his speeches are always
very effective.
