VARDON STILL IN LEAD
TAYLOR WAS EXPECTED TO RE-
DEEM HIMSELF TODAY.
Players i'm the Big Golf Tourney Fol-
lowed Over Course by
Large Galleries.

CHICAGO GOLF CLUB LINKS, WHEA-
TON, Ill, October "a splendid gather
ing, representing fashion and golf enthusf-
asm gathered at the links here before 3
am, realizing that by night the open golf
championship of the United States would
be decided The interest was especially
acute because of the tight race between j.
II. Taylor and Harry Var6on present and
former English champions, the latter hav-
ing finished the first 35 holes yesterday
with 157 strokes to Tayior's I5S.
Champion Taylor remarked before play
began that he felt in better condition, which
was taken by the crowd to mean that he
fully expected TO do the remaining SO holes
in 155 under.
Beautiful weather, with strong west
breeze, favored the players. Promptly at
O'Clock the officials started the first pair
Alexander Taylor OF Exmoor and Patrick
Corcoran of Buffalo-and so well was the
schedule followed that, as the last pair
teed off at 10 o'clock, the first pair was on
the eighteenth green
Among the early starters David Bell and
Chester Horton turned in the best cards,
the former negotiating the course in So and
the latter in 81 The first gallery started
out with Champion Taylor and Tom Hutch
inson, and soon after another crowd went
out with Harry Vardon and Willie Smith.
Arthur Ricketts, OF the Albany Country
Club withdrew today.
AT the ninth hole Taylor's score was 40;
Hutchinsons 80.
Interest I'm Taylor and yardOn.
Interest centered upon what Taylor and
vardon would do. How many strokes Var
don would increase his lead of one over
Taylor was the great question. Inasmuch
as Taylor was off in his putting over the
first part of his morning route, and Var
don played his usual steady game, the gal
lery at the ninth hole was swelled TO alb
normal proportions. Taylor turned the ninth
hole with total of 10, his partner, Tom
Hutchinson OF Shinnecock, being lucky with
80. A few minutes later Vardon came to
the ninth hole with 50, having netted q
gain OF one stroke. Taylor played hard for
good score on the incoming nine. His
putting became more consistent and he
made II In 50
When three-quarters of the champion
ship medal play had been concluded Harry
Vardon had increased his lead over Cham
pion Taylor to four strokes, and the profes-

BRYAN TO DEMOCRATIC CLUBS.
Vice Presidential Candidate Also
Speaks at IndfanaPOlis.

A dispatch from Indianapolis last night
says: The hall in which was assembled the
National Association Of Democratic Clubs
was thronged with people this afternoon,
probably 5000 being present. but as the
hour approached for the advent of Mr.
Bryan at o'clock the aisles were filled ana
the hall thronged to degree OF almost SUI
location. After Adla E. Stevenson had
concluded, James R. Sovereign, ex-grand
spoke. dealing with the workingman from
a political standpoint. He said labor Is the
foundation Of liberty in all the world. Mr.
Sovereign was followed by Bishop j. Milton
Turner, minister to Liberia under Grant S
administration, who spoke briefly,
AS Bishop Turner concluded Mr.. Bryan
appeared upon the platform. He had
reached the city few minutes before
O'Clock, but did not arrive at the hall un-
til 4:15 o'clock. He was escorted through
the streets by number Of marching clubs.
AS soon as the democratic national candi-
date appeared on the platform there was a
wild shout Of greeting, and this soon devel-
oped into demonstration which continued
for about six minutes, until, indeed, there
was a call for cessation from Mr.. Bryan
himself
Mr. Bryan complimented the clubs' repre-
sentatives present and said theiL organiza-
ttons were the sole reliance Of the demo-
Gratis to raise money. He urged the mem
bers to contribute to the campaign fund
Then taking up the issues Of the day he
charged the republicans with lodging the
paramount question. He said: When the
questions Of the human race and human lib
erty are at stake the republicans say that
the money question is the paramount issue.
They were afraid in 1895 that we were 60
ing to have a 5O-cent dollar. Now they
have given us an IS per cent citizen in
Porto Rico they don't dare tell US what per
cent of citizenship the Filipino Is to have.
in 1896 they said we could not have dou-
bic standard Of money. Now they think
we can have double standard of govern
ment, a republic here and despottsm in
the Philippine Islands. They said in 1896
that we could not maintain q parity be.
tween white metal and a yellow. How
can they maintain parity between q white
citizen and a yellow subject in the Philip
pine Islands? They find that 1t Is too sor,
did doctrine to say that the standard OF
the form Of government under which you
live"
He devoted most Of his remarks to the
subject of miHtarism and imperialism He
declared the purpose Of the republican par
ty was to increase the army, to awe dis
satisfied labor at home and to exploit the
Philippines abroad. In this connection he
said:
'In December of 1893, when the Presi-
dent asked for his army. the treaty had
not yet been signed, but its terms were
understood. When the republican Con-
gress voted to raise the army to 100, coo
the treaty had been signed, and no arm
was raised against this nation anywhere

had never voted for colonial policy; up

Why Mr.. SibIey "FlOpped."

From the New York Tribune.
Nobody has put the republican SIDE OF
the argument in this campaign more terseiy
or comprehensively than Representative
Joseph D. Sibley Of Pennsylvania In his re-
cent speech at Bradford" said Franklin
Murphy Of the republican national commit
tee at national headquarters. "Being ac-
cused Of Topping he confessed. and told
why he Topped If may be allowed to
boil down his remarks, this Is what ne
said:
He saw men earning twice as much now
as in 1885,
He saw everybody employed now, while
In 1896 II per cent Of the wage-earners or
the country were unemployed or working
on short hours.
He saw the country manufacturing Tor
home consumption and for export now, IN
stead of importing, as In 1886. 49,
He saw a pound Of wool selling Tor ~
cents instead Of II cents, as In 1876. and
cotton at 10 cents instead of cents.
HE saw an advance under Mckinley or
% to 125 per cent in the price of all farm
products.
He saw 65OOo,OoO more paid to wage
earners In this country in 1899 than In 1896.
"He saw thirty-five miles of empty freight
cars sidetracked and idle on the New York
Central railroad for two years under Cleve-
land and now every wheel turning.
He saw our boys in blue being shot down
by savages and the Bryanites sympathizing
with the savages.
HE saw every month q national surplus
instead of deficit, as in 1896
HE saw that we were lending money to
Europe instead of borrowing 1t from Eu-
rope, as under Cleveland.
And when he saw these things he went

Puzzled About Descent.

An English student of genealogy is
perplexed by the results of work on II
problem of descent. He writes to the
Liverpool Post, saying:
| have, like the rest of human beings, two
parents. They in turn had each two. These
four grandparents had each two and so on.
Now, if we take on an average four genera
tons to a century, 80 generations have passed
away since the time of William the Con-
queror, and by the simple process of multi
plying two by itself 80 times | lind that at
the date of the Norman conquest must have
had S,5S9,934 500 ancestors of that generation.
But this is eight or nine times the total popu-
lation of the globe at the present day, and
must be fully 30 or 40 times the total num-
Der of human beings living in the eleventh
century, so that there must be Il falacy in
my calculation somewhere. Can anybody
tell me what the fallacy is?

FROsTBURG, MD. DECEMBER Is, 1900


Frank L. Stanton, the Georgia poet,
differing with many people presumably
better than he, says "the worlds all
right
The world is as bright O-day as when
The Lord in the heavens made it;
There are more birds singing in every glen,
And more bright roses braid it,
1t has less of sorrow and less of strife
Whatever they say or sing you,
And more of love, and more of life
The beautiful seasons bring you
God made the country, man made
the town. is an old saying, which, be-
ing largely true, would seem to enjoin
residence preferably in the country.
Hence, if good people want to limit
the growth of crime and restrict the
spread Of vice they must preach against
both the congestion of population and
the social and material ACCOMPLISHMENTS
of metropolitan enterprise.
In doing this they will by reflection
magnify the virtues of country life-a
far more effective way of accomplishing
good than by standing ON the house-tops
and dcclaiming against the invariable
and inevitable conconitants of town aud
city growth.
1t seems to I've Il sort of second law of
nature, as pointed ont by Henry George,
that extreme poverty, themOther of vice,
is the normal counterpart of extreme
wealth; in short, that the two naturally
exist side by side The poor We have
always with YOU applies in some degree
to the wc,l-to-do; more to the rich; yet
more to the supcrfluously wealthy.
And the trend Of aw-making is toward
the perpetuity Of this noighorhorhood of
inverse conditions.
But this is Il deep, wide suhjcct-too
deep for sounding, too wide for explo-
ration here.
Still, let it not be forgotten BY those
who claim great gratuities for their towns
that theSc-the good, must come from
the country, and that the meretlicious
phases of society develop around the
centres of industrial and commercial
gravity as naturally us pollution is en-
gcndered and maintained by the multi
plying "taints Of civilization" Whose
viii take the credit side of this account
must also accept the debit, and whoever
will appropriate the assets must also
shoulder the liabilities.
Finally, it was not of the country

His forecasts He recalled the killing of
the prophets.
Indeed, He said

Chance for a Labor. Hurpau

United Mine Worker organizers, in
Guiding William Warner, formerly of
Georges Creek, are making stir in the
Fairmont (W. Va mining region, and
apprehensionS of trouble ut Il day not far
away are felt by the many who want
work to 90 on.
1t is also Saidin Fairmont Dispatch
This effort of the United Mine Workers is
made, it is charged in some quarters, on be-
half f the operators of Penns; lvania, Ohio
and Illinois who will regain their lost mar
kets if the men in this region become dis
satisfied with present conditions
Not only SO. but
The operators contend that this move
ment is paid for by the operators of other
States, who, as common enemy, unite
against this State to regain their lost markets.
They claim that any movement to organize
among the miners means to undo the cond-
tons that have come about in the last few
years. They say the organizers have no.
thing i'll common with the men of this re-
Eion, and point out that the recent strike in
the Georges Creek district of Maryland did
no good and only kept the men out of four
months work at good prices.
If West Virginia has labor bureau,
is it not the duty Of that body to begin
an investigation Of those charges at once?
For this there are at least two reasons
/, 70 show cause why laws should be
enacted prohibiting such interference by
the chartered organizations of one State
with the business of those of another.
or
,, If this be impracticablc, 10 Shor the
miners themselves by the fullest publicity
that the oiIog"d reasons for organization,
or for il strike, are not the real reasons.
1t seems to the JOURNAL that labor
bureau could not possibly furnish labor
more useful service, or more nearly
demonstrate IL conclusive reason for IT'S
existence.
Take the FairmOnt region nOW-cOuld
State Labor bureau officially assure the
miners out there that the movement"
making among them lis paid for by the
operators of other States,' it is exceed
ingly doubtful whether they could ever
be unified into Il striking humOr.
At any rate, whatever they did would
be done with their eyes open.
