THE WEST FOR EXPANSION.

So far as the results are known Mr.
Mckinley's plurality over Bryan is
$50, 900 against 6O2, ,OO9 in 1896 1t is
interesting and instructive to observe
that, compared with 1896, Mr.. McKin-
ley's pluralities in the New England
states were reduced 167, ,761 and in
the Middle states 170, 800. He lost in
every New England state.
In the middle West the Mckinley
pluralities were increased 1886 and
in the Far West 351, ,76S. The Buf-
falo Courier, which has tabulated the
pluraiities. recons the Far West" as
the states west of the Mississippi
river. Particularly was the reyolu-
tion tremendous in these states: Kan
sas. Nebraska. South Dakota. Mon
tana, Wyoming, Colorado, Utah, Ida
no, Nevada. Washington, Oregon and
CALIFORNIA. Mr.. Mckinley's plurali-
ties in these states in 1896 aggregated
10, 500, and in 1900, 129, ,462. Mr.. Bry-
ans pluralitieS in 1896 in these states
were $50, ,366. and in 1900 only Al 500.
In the South. Mr.. Bryan, according
to the Courier's table, fell off 55,O16
on his pluralitieS, but, as the official
figures are coming in, it is evident

that he lost much more than that in
the South In the North and West
the unofficial figures closely follow
the official announcements, but IN the

Mr.. Bryan ran 10000 behind his
ticket.
OF course, the end of the silver is
sue in the West is the first eXplana-
tion>of the great change in that sec
tion, but that is an illogical conclu-
sion of the Eastern press. Granting
that tens of thousands of voters in
the West, who supported Bryan and
silver in 1896, had come to the con-
clusion that free silver was dead is
sue, they still had the choice of oppos-
ing Imperialism and militarism or
standing by expansion and the Gov
ernment. Having previously been
filled with enthusiasm for Mr.. Bryan,
it was natural that they should at
his new issues. In fact, they would
naturally inclined strongly toward
Bryan. Nevertheless, the West re-
pudiated Bryan with decisive and
crushing vote.
The only logical explanations is that
the West, much as it cared for Bryan,
loved expansion more. All honor to

may want to make you an earl or "a

A divorce petition filed in court at
Hutchinson recites the story of an eX-
traordinary courtship. The woman
says she didn't want to marry her
husband, but one afternoon he and
his sister got her into Il buggy and
drove around the country all night,
the pair taking turns in pleading with
her to consent to the marriage. At
last, near daylight, she consented out
of sheer exhaustion, and without Civ
ing her chance to repent she was
driven into Hutchinson where the
marriage took place.-Kansas City

Decay Of Nations.

CHICAGO, March 5.-President
David Starr Jordan, OF Leland Stan
ford university Of California, lectur-
ed at All Souls church here Sunday
speaking to large audience on "The
Blood Of Nation" He said that
the present century would witness
the downfall of Great Britain. He
declared that ultimately the people
of South Africa would have their
freedom.
The speaker in emphatic terms
asserted that the present inhabitants
of Great Britain were a mere shad-
ow of their forefathers in point Of
brains and health. Mr., Jordan
thinks that nation that founds Its
destiny on war must reach a speedy
decay.
Among other things he said:
II think war more than any other
agency destroys the vitality of a ma
tion. Take, for instance, the present
Britis-Boer war. The best represen-
tatives of both countries are now on
the field Of battle. War not only
makes widows, but it prevents many
marriages IS. 1 certainly am of the
opinion that war is a curse on any
nation unless 1T is the result of a
fight for freedom. Such a thing as
carrying on war for the sake of en-
couraging imperialistic ideas will
wreck sooner or later nation that
tries such q scheme"

to relate marvellous stories of their

are able to tell the difference be-
tween heat and cold, and others
know what 1t Is to enjoy good
thing as spectators, and all know
that the reception given the Lam
caster gentlemen by the Loganites
was royal one. After the trip
through the woods an adjourna-
ment was had to the spacious din
ing apartments of the Hotel REM
pei, when at midnight repast
furnished by mine host, Harry
Ambrose, was partaken OF by 108
persons, who had the privilege of
calling each other "brother," and
were proud OF the fact that they
were Elks. The tables were heav-
lily laden with veiything OF the
