fusa1 to yield two successive crops
upon the same land. Accordingly, the
mustard raiser can only devote part
of his farm to it each season. The
land from which he harvested his cror
this year must next year be planted
to beans or barley, corn, pumpkins OF
beets. Indeed, results show that il
pays to skip two years in planting
mustard, and only turn the soil to its
use every third season. What active

VICTORY WELL ASSURED.
The Vermont Election Indicntes
That the Drift In Toward
BFyap.

Four years ago 4s more electoral
votes would have elected Bryan. To
be elected now he must get that
many votes IN addition TO those he
had in 1896, and if he loses any of
his former votes he must get enough
in addition to make up for the loss.
In 1896 several states on each side
were very evenly divided. A slight
drift would have sent them over the
line. Everything depends now. there
fore, on the direction of the drift. A
small majority in state is safe if
the drift is in the direction of maxi
ing it secure.
The Vermont election indicates that.
the drift there is towars1 Bryan. The
democrats are indisputably stronger
in Vermont now than they were four
years ago. What light does that
throw on the possibilities in other
states?
The republican vote in Vermont has
fallen off about ten per cent as COM
pared with the corresponding election
in 1896, while the democratic vote has
increased about Is per cent.
Indiana has IL electoral votes. In
1896 the. republican vote there was
323, ,754, and the democratic 3o5,573 II
the republicans lose ten per cent. and
the democrats gain 16 per cent. the
republican vote in Indiana this year
will be 291,379 and the democratic
354, ,575, leaving a democratic plural
ity of 63.0S3.
A similar process would give the
democrats Delaware by 447, West

NEW JERSEY AND NEW YORK.
Representative Bradley says Thai
Both States Will Go for
BRYAN

Both New York and New JERSEY
will give Bryan their electoral votes
this fall, very positively announced
Representative Thomas j. Bradley, OF
New York city, in Washington thu
other day. There is nothing at al
surprising in this statement to TIL.
student of practical politics and hu
man nature. Let me explain: Bryar
wasdefeated by very narrow margir
four years ago because he was looked
upon as a radical man: a man with
new and untried ideas and principles
Hence the great commercial centers
where the conserya tive element is II
control, opposed and defeated him
For business, or wealth, is always con.
seryatiye and very fearful Of anything
like radical departure from old
standards and ideas. In other words
money is always afraid of anything
1t doesn't understand. It did not un.
derstand Mr.. Bryan and his ideas in
1896, and it therefore strained itself
to beat him.
This year, however, 1t is just thu
other way. It is Mckinley who has
departed from the ways of our fathers
and left Dehind hope of return tc
the good old ways upon which this ma.
ton was founded and built up; and
the wealth of the country, as usual,
does not understand this new thing.
and therefore fears it. It is Mckinley
who is looked upon as radical this
year, and the great centers of popu.
1ation and commerce viii be against
him. He will be defeated, while Bry.
an, who has taken his old opponents
place as the conservator of the an.
cient esta blished institutions of the
country. win be triumphantly elected.
How about New Jersey? Why, in
presidential years New Jersey goes az
New York goes. Did you ever notice
that? Then you watch it this time

Mckinley. with all his stiffness and

r & d.
Mckinley, with all his stiffness and
all his SNUG hypocrisy, cannot dodge
or obscure it. The flag is being trailed
In the dust of his ignoble ambition
and the blood of our late allies, perfid-
iously betrayed, stains its folds.
Shall we palter with standards and
ratios while American guns are slaugh-
tering freedom in foreign land? Shall
we quarrel over the color of our money
when the rivers are running with
blood shed in pursuit of horrible con-
quest?
No. The immediate issue is one of
justice and honor and high duty. Sill
yer and everything else must wait up
on this. And Maj. Mckinley hopes in
vain if he hopes that this great and
insistent issue can be either obscured
or evaded.

disagreement Among Leaders.

Unless the republican leaders put
their heads together and harmonic
their arguments they will stand q
good chance of not deceiving many
people in this campaign. Mckinley
declares that silver is the main issue
and that the battle of 1896 must be
fought over again. Roosevelt insists
that silver is not only an issue, but
the paramount one, which it would
seem ought to satisfy even Montana
"silver republican" On the other
hand, Foraker says in his Youngs-
town speech that all of the republic
ans and half of the democrats are
opposed to free silver, but that Bryan
will try to force it.--Anaconda Stand

frank and courageous. He tells
people exactly where he stands OF a
the great issues. His Labor da
speech in Chicago put him in sy1np;
| thy with the working people all owe
the country. He discussed their caus
with understanding and sympathy,
| IT he were one of them. Not so wit
Roosevelt. He was pelted with jeer
and hard questions by the working
| men of Chicago on Labor day. The
openly taunted him with favoring COY
ernment ny injunction and a militar
form of government.
Hanna has been keeping Roosevelt
as far west as possible because tn
eastern republicans will not stan
for his bombastic and egotistie ora
tory on any terms, but Roosevelt ha
troubles in the west. The wester
people are not to be imposed upo
by gingerbread hero.
At Roosevelt's meetings there ar
the ubiquitous colored men, who re
mind him that a colored regimen
saved the rough riders from annihila
ton on San .uan hill, and then ther
is sure to be shower of posters con
tanning quotations from Roosevelt
books in which he shows himself tn
narrow, conceited aristocrat, having
no real sympathy with the people.
He has sent Hanna word that b
is tired of the west a. = wants to com
home, but, while he is losing vote
for the republicans, he is doing it il
states that will be democratic any
way, and Hanna doesn't propose tt
let him help the democrats by hi
foolish speeches in doubtful states.
Ffuws in the Gold Standard.
The republicans are now industri
ously pointing out the flaws in thei
gold standard law and asking to bi
given another opportunity to fix
up. They will get that anyway il
the coming short session of the Fifty
sixth congress, but if republican
congress and executive couldn't pas
a satisfactory gold standard law a
the last session, the bankers have
right to suspect that they will be un
able to do so at any future time.

BRYAN IS ENDORSED.
Big Anti-Trust Organization De
cIares Mckinley Is Against
the People.

The ma ational executive committee oi
the American Antitrust league, at a
meeting held in. Chicago Friday. for
mally indorsed the candidates of the
democratic party for president and
vice president and denounced Mr.. Nc
Knley as being the tool of Mark Han
ma and the trusts. In stirring ad.
dress to the American people the league
among other things says:
''It is deplorably evident hat the en-
tire course of William Mckinley as
president of the United States proves
him. to be distinctly hostile to each
and all of the principles and declara-
tions of the platform of the American
Antitrust league:
''It is notorious that his closest
counselor and manager is Senator
Marcus A. Hanna, the promoter OF
mahy and the recognized political
agent and representative Of all the
great trusts and monopolies of the
ma ton.
''The members of his cabinet are the
instruments of the trusts. His secre.
tary of state is the special champion
and friend of British tory interests.
His secretary of the treasury is the
subservient tool of the great banks
and the money monopoly of the world.
''The platform upon which he stands
is totally neryeless in its antitrust
