WILL the democrats stampede from
Bryan to Dewey.
AaUINAIDo has fed from the Phil
l;pine islands to China.
COLONEL Nc CLuRE of the Philadel
phia Times is credited with put.ina
Admirel Dewey on the track for tho
Presidency.
The dem ,cratic State Convention
passed a res,lution binding the dele.
gates to vote as a unit in the Nation
al Convention.
QUEEN VICTORIA has put on The
green and gone to Ireland to visit
the Irish They need the Irish now
to fight the Beers.
DEWEY is to swing around the cir.
Gle, starting from Washington over
the Baltimore and Ohio railroad west
Everyone will turn out and cheer for
Dewey and in November vote the re-
publican ticket and continued
prosperity.
DEwEY's victory over the Spanish
fleet at Manila was complete, but It
was not more complete than Scbley's
victory over the Spanish feet at San
tiago. Why dent Schley run for tiil the
Presidency on his heroic achievement
of having destroyed the Spanish
feet at Santiago.
The democratic State Convention
met in Harrisburg last week and
nominated for Auditor General, P.
Gray Meek of Bel'efonte for Con
gressman- at large Henry E. Grimm
of Bucks Co.; N. NJ. E lwards of Ly
coming county and delegates-at-lsrg
and Presidential electors.
The Bryan ring met in Harrisburg
last week and nominated a state
ticket. Editor P. Gray Meek of Belle
fonte heads the ticket for Auditor
General. During the war Meek was
a rebel sympathizer and in the late
presidential campaign he was silver
democrat. He is q warm friend of
the silver orator of the west.
WHAT does Dewey say on the gold
aud silver question? The people
know where Bryan stands on the
coin question. Dewey saws he is a
democrat, but that is such an indef'
mite term except in one meaning as
the Irishman said, and that was: "By
iabbers when you see lead hit it..
Perhaps that is Dewey's kind of dem
ocracy, when you see head hit it.
THE Kentucky Court of Appeals
has decided the governorship against
Taylor, The court was made up #
four democrats and three republi-
cans. The four democratic judges
and two republican judges all agree
that under The letter of the law
the democrats are entitled to the
governorsbip of the state. One re-
publican Judge dIssents. The case
will go to the United States Supreme
Court.
An exchange says:- Lumber has
cotton SO high in price that those
contemplating the erection of either
dwelling houses or business blocks
are pausing and considering serious
ly between lumber and brick az ma
terial This is why there hasn't
been any sale for lumber of late and
why there isn't likely to be at pres
ent prices. Prices are bound to take
tumble in lumber 50 experienced
lumbermen say.
DEwEY's declaration, II am a dem
ocrat: have always been a demo-
crat, but I never voted in my life," is
. stunning declaration to everyone.
1t was believed that Dewey's politi-
cal inclinations are republican. A
club of republicans in Baltimore call
ed their organization the Dewey re-
publican club. They have changed
their name and Dewey's picture that
hung on the club-room wall has been
placed with the face to the wall and
craped.
FLAGS were flung to the breeze on
Monday in honor of General Grants
capture of the Confederate slavery
general Gen Lee at Appomatax, Vir-
ginia, April 8, 1865. That was thir-
ty-five years ago. A generation If
men not born at that time are now
in all the active pursuits of life. They
are near and yet far away from the
wonderfully important evsnts that
were inaugurated by the firing up
on Fort Sumpter in Charleston bar
Dor in April 1861 and closing with
the surrender at Appomatox in April
1865.
DEWEY and his society have an am
bition to try the democratic merry
go round for the Presidency. The
democracy will hardly put him at the
head Of the ticket. They might pu.
him on for Vice President. 1t would
suit him first rate to be President of
the Senate. But to get there will be
more difficult than sinking old Span
ish war ships in Manila harbor. The
political powder of the democracy is|
about as poor as the gun powder us-
ed by the Spaniards in their navy
guns. The Spanish naval gun pow.
der had no force. There was to much
charcoal in it, and 80 it is with the
political powder of the democracy, it
has too much char coal in it to fire
their candidates into the White
House.
