HIcYAN AND STEVENSON.

Tho two parties have met and
made their nominations for pres
idcnt and vice president. Each
has tried to excel the other in that
business, but the best and most
available men have been selected
on both sides, and the people Of
this great nation will decide about
the men and measures. The wars
during tho Mckinley administra-
ton may help tho Republican par
ty by diverting public attention
from tho real issues made against
them, still Bryan and Stevenson
will make q vigorous campaign
and the best informed Democratic
leaders are sanguine Of success.
