After Surveying all the Predlctlons lie
Has Made A Less Vain Man than Bryan
Would Emulate the Example OF the Par
rot. Come to the Conclusion that He had
Talked too Much.
Bryan has been identified with
three paramount issues, to which
he has, with all due soIemnity ded-
icated his entire life, and pledged
his powers to cngraft upon the
national legislation of the country.
When in the Fifty-second Congress
nine years ago, he was IN ardent
champion of free trade, in speech,
long and brilliant, he declared that,
ga protective tariff was conceived in
greed and fashioned in iniquity,
false i'm economy and the most vic
ious political principle that ever
cursed this country" Yet Il pro-
tective tariff bill was passed by the
first Congress and approved by
Washington. Bryan further declar-
ed that he would fight the protective
system us long as there was anything
to remedy. The struggle between
protection and free trade went against
him. The people rcpudiated free
trade and Bryan dropped it. 1t was
not wise to "paramount' free trade
when 1t would not make votes:
Four years ago, realizing that he
must "paramount" something else,
he took up silver and worked it with
all the force of his eloquence. That
in turn was repudiated by the people
and dropped by Bryan. All his
wild prophesies have proven to be
false by the prosperous facts of re-
cent experience.
This year, he concluded to let free
trade alone, touch lightly on free
silver and paramount imperial
ism, and he is working il in the
same prophet promising, reckless
fashion. In opposing protection he
denounced Washington, in advoca-
ting free silver he ran counter to all
financial experience, in opposing
expansion he reflects on Jefferson.
After a few more campaigns he may
possible get into line and strike
something that is right, but ut pres
ent there is big dent i'm the public
confidence rs to the accuracy OF MS
prophetic powers and as to his lead
err like ability.

p. G. BIDDLE, Coroner.
Chairman John w. Rogers
called the Republican county con-
vention to order on Tuesday after
noon in the Court House and con-
graduated everybody on the large
attendance. The full quota of dele
gates, with the exception of three,
were present and many prominent
Republicans throughout the county
who were not delegates were on
hand filled with interest and ready
to work for any measure that would
be for the good Of the party.
As this meeting was an adjourn
mcnt of the convention held last
April, the working organization
was already effected. President j.
w. Rogers and Nice-President Dan.
| Schonover took their official chairs.
| +. III. Ingham, Vernon Huh and
James j. Teevan finished their du-
| ties rs secretaries.
The president ON tax ing the chair
at once started the business of nom-
mating a county ticket which was
quickly dispatched as the delegates
had previously held caucus to dis
cuss the merits of the candidates
and all had agreed upon who should
be nominated i'm convention.
The first nomination to be
made was that of Member of Assem-
bly,. The name of Hon. j. l.. Chris
tian was put before the convention
by Mr.. j. w. Mccartney of Lopez.
On motion the nomination closed
and he was unanimously elected to
head our county ticket. Mr.. Vernon
Hull of Ilillsgrove, whose word is
known to be as sound and good as
Il L. :. bond or Il gold dollar, rose
and congratulated the delegates for
their excellent choice and told what
he knew about Mr.. Christian as Il
citizen, an honest man and his love
of justice to his fellow-men irrespec:
tive of party or crecde. His
remarks were loudly applauded.
NJ. G.. Mercur of Elkland then pre-:
sented resolution before the con:
vention and stated the folly of the
Republicans in dividing themselves
over the nonsensical issue Of Quay,
that Is simply being used u
II handle by the Democretic bosses
as the only hope in electing their
ticket. The resolution was adopted
which reads as follows:
RESOLVED, that our candidate for

THE POLITICAL SITUATION.

The political situation, SO far as
the Republican outlook IS concerned,
may be sized up in one word-ovcr-
confidence. The great trouble at the
present moment is that everybody
nearly, are too busy making money,
getting their crops in, taking them
to market, earning good wages at
their situations in tire mills all over
the country, and, in short, feeling
SO very cOntented that one who
comes along to talk politics finds
little encouragement. The Repub-
lican leaders believe they will win,
but they are going to work harder
and harlersto bring about that con-
sumation; and they propose to take
no chances. They like to see the
reports of prosperity-and the re-
ports also that as many millions of
voters as possible are having very
good time of it financially.
One of the best advertisements
ever written simply said: "No
time to write a long advertisement
too busy selling hats" That about
expresses the present situation.
1t is very evident that the Re-
publican workers of various kinds
are going to chase no rainbows.
You do not hear those who really
know their political business saying
that this or that is the paramount
issue" They know better than to
make any such predictions. 1t
seems to them that certain issues
are likely to have to be discussed:
expansion, or imperialism, if the
Democrats choose to call it that, free
silver, possibly the Chinese War.
1t is likely to be almost anything,
but whatever it is our workers are
going to be ready for them. They
are not going to be put on the defcn-
sive. The Republican party has
been in power, it has had response
bilities. 1t made promises four
wears ago. 1t has fulfilled those
promises. 1t does not believe that
the opposing party, no matter how
harsh its criticisms now, and no
matter how fair its promises, could
have done better if it had tried
probably could not have done as
we'll, having less experience, and,
as everybody knows, having made
but sorry mess of it whenever it
has had chance to try before under
much more favorable circumstances.
So all the Republican workers are
going to meet the Democratic work
ers more than half way. If eXpan-
sion or ''imperialism" is the issue,
let the two platforms be compared.
Bryan actually promised nothing
that the Republicans are not now
performing. He says, to be sure,
that he would convene Congress and
establish protectOrate over the
Philippines. lie isn't square enough
to mention that this would take
about the same kind of standing
army that we are now maintaining,
and to which he seems To object SO
strenuously. So, with the silver
issue, he and his followers will have
a chance to explain whether Bryan
if elected, would not Immediately
put the country on II silver basis.
And perhaps the paramount is
sue may be the Chinese War. If so,
the Republican performance Is II
good enough augury for the future.
