DEMOCRATS PROSPECTS.

There is not shadow of doubt in
our mind but what William Jennings
Bryan will be nominated at Kansas
City on the first ballot, and there is
not a doubt in our mind but what
he can carry more states for the
Democratic party than any other
candidate that could be selected.
Hoke Smith, editor of the Atlanta
(Ga.) Journal, who has given the
subject much attention, and who
opposed Bryan before gives the fol-
lowing forecast of the presidential
race with Bryan and Mckinley as
the candidates: The Journal says
Bryan is certain of the following
electoral vote:
Alabama, IL; Arkansas, 8; Colo
RADIO, 4; Delaware, 8, Florida, 4;
Georgia, 13; Idaho, 3; Kansas, 10;
Kentucky, l3; Louisiana, 8; Mary
land, 8; Mississippi, 9; Missouri, II;
Montana, 3; Nebraska, 8; Nevada,
8; North carolina, II; North Dakota,
8; South Carolina, 8; South Dakota,
4; Tennessee, IL, Texas, 10, Utah, B.
Virginia, l3; Washington, A; West
Virginia, 6; Wyoming, 8. Total,
1874.
The states the Journal comedies
to Mr.. Mckinley are the following
Connecticut, 6; Iowa, l3; Maine,
6; Massachusetts,, Is; Michigan, IA
Minnesota, 9; New Hampshire, 4
Ohio, %; Pennsylvania, 32; Rhode
Island, A; Verment, 4, Wisconsin
IL, Total, 142.
The doubtful states are: Califor
mia, 8; Illinois, "a, Indiana, Is; New
Jersey, 10; New York, 36; Oregon
| 4. lOLdli 90
Bryan seems sure of 2O7 electora
votes, while Mckinley can count
with confidence upon only l42
There are 447 electoral votes in al
and 224 will be required to elect. O
the 81 doubtful votes Bryan needs
only II, while Mckinley must
secure 81,
1t is probable that Bryan will get
more than the needed II. His
chances seem to be better than Nc
Kiuley's in Illinois, Indiana 'ant
California and quite as good in New
York and New Jersey.

The three Boer Commissioners,
who were sent to the United States,
are now in Chicago, and with a few
home orators who had rather hear
themselves talk than to eat, are
holding meetings and are engaged
in shooting it into England and our
own country for not helping the
Beers fight England. We are with
the administration on this point
and think the United States has
about as much as it can do to at
tend to its own business. If a ma
tion is not strong enough to go to
war with another nation, it should
use some judgement in keeping out
of the fight. Those Beers could
have easily pacifed England had

Unnecessary Loss Of Time.

Mr.. W. s. Whedon, Cashier of the
First National Bank of Winterset
Iowa, in recent letter gives some
experience with a carpenter in his

a carpenter working for me who
was obliged to stop work for several
days on account of being troubled

FATAL COLORS,

1t has been proven that soldiers

the color of their dress, in the fol.
lowing ordered is the most fatal.
Austrian grey is the least fatal.
The proportions are red twelve, rifle

blush grey five. There is one other
color, not mentioned, more fatal
and that is the pallor of weakness.

deathly hue upon your cheek, and
the stomach weakens and life seems
not worth living, 60 to the druggist

Common shells, the kind which
tear through earth and woodwork,
cost the United States government
$85 each, while armor-piercers,
guaranteed to penetrate the mail
of war vessels, are worth $145.
Those figures make it Immediately
obvious that the real value of an
expert gunner is not his patriotism,
not the number of enemies he may
kill, but the financial saving he can
make by shooting straight and
wasting none of his projectiles.

OIL MILL.

Mr.. W. ]. Buhrman, who owns a
block of stock in the Texarkana
Cotton Seed Oil, and Fertilizer Com
pany, recently organized here, was
met by the reporter yesterday, and
in regard to the mill said, "We are
looking for every mail to bring us
plans for the buildings we are to
erect for our plant. He said the
contract for the machinery had
been given and the same parties
who were to furnish the machinery
was also to furnish the plans of the
buildings and these plans should now
be on the way.
Mr.. Buhrman said the buildings
and sheds would be of wood covered
with galvanized iron but the house
for the machinery would be OF
brick. He thought everything would
be in readiness to commence Dusl-
ness when the season opened. Be
said: "We cannot be more than a
month late in getting ready to
start the machinery, bat this will
not keep us out of the market for
seed, for we will buy and store and
by this means will have a good sup
ply on hand. When the reporter
asked Mr.. Buhrman what about the
fertilizing plant, he said: We will
add that later perhaps next season,
or perhaps not put it in at all, we
had that embodied in the charter in
case the company should add this as
a side issue we would not have to
amend the charter. Mr.. Buhrman
says just as soon as the plans ar
rive the work will be let by con-
tract.

How Russel Sage Started.

Simply because have been for
tunate enough to succeed is nc
reason why I should boast of my
beginning" says the great fnan'
cier, Russell Sage.
"What have done others can
do.
"The path to success is thorny, it
is true, but any young man who
makes up his mind to do so can ac-
quire money.
"He must make cast iron rules
at the start, to practice self-denial,
regularity and temperance, love
for work, a rigid regard for the
minutest detail of business, and,
above all, choose the loss of every
dollar rather than perform a single
act of dishonesty.
"FaiIure is most frequently caused
by falling by the wayside. Young
men become victims of immediate
pleasure rather than a long and
courageous struggle to permanent
success.

Judge Talbot adjourned District
Court yesterday at Boston for the
term. A point was raised as to the
legality of the special session, by
Attorney @. o. Mahaffey as he
made it so plain that the special
session had not been sufficiently
posted as required by law, that the
Judge adjourned the term. Those
who had been convicted or against
whom judgments had been rendered
were granted new trials. Lawyer
Mahaffey is a close observer of the
