A farmer over in Wisconsin says he has
adopted plan of advertising in his home
papers which has saved him much valu-
able time and brought handsome returns
for the money invested. He says: when
am ready to sell my stuff l insert little
advertisement in the local papers telling
what have to sell and, if live stock, how
many head of each and when they viii be
ready to ship, and the result has been that
the buyers are right after me, either per-
sonally OF by mail, and naturally always
get the highest market. II l want to buy

Marx Hanna opened the Republican Ma
tional campaign at Asbury Park Tuesday
night, and intimated that that was his last
speech Of the campaign.
r Prank Appleby, of Asbury Park,
frankly and unwittingfy introduced Hanna
as the man who has carried the administra-
ton since 1896, and the crowd didn't know
whether to applaud uproariously or not
Here is one of Hanna's statements: eve
have desperate enemy, party which
cannot better describe than to call the
Cuckoo party, composed of every crank,
socialist and anarchist in the country.
They are all against us. The fate of Bryan
ism hangs in the balance. If it is defeated
now it is dead. .
Therein Hanna has seen Teddy" Roose-
welt and gone him several points better in
his denuneiation of the old party of Jeffer-
son and jackson, whose representative
assembled in Kansas City on July 4, last,
and after celebration of Independence
Day never before surpassed for enthusiasm,
order and decorum, selected William Jen-
nings Bryan and Adlai E. Stevenson as
national standard bearers. Whom the
gods would destroy they first make fools.

DIR. Hobercom, in his address before the
-Imperalists League at Indianapolis on
August 10. charged that the President had
done that which he had himself solemnly
declared to be great crime, and now
attempts to shift the responsibility upon
Divine Providence.
He said he appealed more especially to
those who, like himself, had come from a
country over which monarch reigns. sIf
Mckinley is reelected, . continued DR.
Habercom, the chances are the standing
army Of the United States viii be increased
70 100000 men, because under the new
order Of things we are bound to be en-
broiled in all the troubles Of the world. Is
it not an act Of Imperialism that the Presi-
dent has entered upon this new adventure
in China without assembling Congress in
extra session?
The people who, like myself, have come
from Germany, know, to their sorrow,
what militarism means These are the
last men who viii vote to convert this
country into an Empire.

Henry Clay was the only man defeated
when nominated for President again after
being defeated when first nominated. That
and other important political facts were
recalled by Col L. McC Ford, we'll
known Georgia lawyer, now in Washing
ten, when he said with one exception
every man who has received a second
nomination for the presidency, after having
been defeated the first time, has been
elected. In 1886 Thomas Jefferson was
defeated by John Adams. In 1900 Jeifer-
son was nominated again and elected In
1924 Andrew jackson was defeated by John
Quincy Adams, but four years later, when
he was nominated for the second time, he
defeated Adams. In 1886 William Henry
Harrison was defeated by Martin Van
Buren,, but in 1910 Harrison turned the
tables and was elected. The case Of Bryan
is like that Of jefferson, Jackson, and
William Henry Harrison He was defeated
in his first canvass, and four years later is
again the candidate Of his party. If pre-
cedent is followed, he will be elected
