Bryan at His Worst.

From the New York Sun.
IL is not pleasant TO find a can
didate President of the United
talking as foolishly OF dishonesty
as Mr.. Bryan talked at Monet,
Mo.

ing that we have reached a point
where we can loan money to people
in other countries. | want to ask
you whether you regard that as an
evidence of prosperity Why
would any man send his money to
Europe for investment il he could
find a place in this country to in
vest it? Money sent abroad for
Investment must be sent for one of
two reasons, either because the
man who sends the money over
there thinks more of the people
over there than he does the people
here, and does it for love and de-
votion, or because 1t is a matter of
business; that is, because he can
invest 1t to better advantage in
a European country than he al in

MI. Bryan either knows or he

that financial system which he is
trying to break down that it has

A Democrat Formerly Comes Out
For the Republican Nominee.

The followingamdavit from c. S.
Mason, who has been antagonistic
to the candidacy OF Hon. Joseph
F1ory, during Che previous part OF
the campaign, viii explain his
present position relative to the next
governor:

| was employed as yard foreman
by the Wabash, st. Louis and
Pacific on engine 50 in October
1888, and was the first man who
was handed the papers from the
East st. Louis committee, calling
upon us Wabash men to ask for
Chicago pay. If same was not
granted by ~ o'clock, noon, that
day, we were to strike. My help
ers asked what | was going to do.

"Mr. Brown, yardmaster, asked
me what | was going to do after
dinner. said: "Have you heard
whether we get Chicago pay or
not?" He answered: 81 have heard
nothing" Then I said: "There is
your engine"
"a few days later Joe Flory
came from Moberly, and, as | sup
posed, had come to take our posi-
tons; but later, through Mr.. Brown

BRYAN on Pensions.

Mr.. Bryan's u~tterances about the
soldiers of the Civil War are worth
repeating. Mr.. Bryan, as editor of
the Omaha World-H Herald, passed
this Nov. Is, 1892.
"The next session of Congress
will have to wrestle with one de-
iciency of $50, COZ, 900. This is on
account of pensions. The appropri-
alton for next year must be not less
than $50, 600, 900. 1t is therefore
easy arithmetic to perceive that the
appropriation that Congress must
make must aggregate not less than
stS6, 000, 900. This tremendous sum
would in itself be enough to run a
reasonable government. One would
not complain ii ii yer IN honest
debt, but a large proportion is ton
a debt because ii was never earned
by any act OF patriotism or heroic
service. The government is held up
and despoiled OF no mean portion
OF this and it seems helpless to de-
fend itself. One cannot help being
curious to know how many years it
win take to exhaust the generation
which feels itself injured by the
war. 1t is safe to say that never did
a generation display such remark
eble longevity"
Isn'tit about time that Mr.. Bryan
was attacking the Spanish war
Pensioners?

The Republican party in Wyom-
ingis in excellent shape. The State
is quite prosperous. This is partic-
ularly true of the wool industry,
which has been stimulated by the
tariff and the general business re-
vival throughout the country. The
wool growers all realize that their
future depends largely on the con-
linuation OF the prosperity which
now prevails and believe that they

Postmaster General Smith, who
went to West Virginia last week to
make q couple OF speeches, says he
found nothing approaching apathy
among the republicans of the state.
On the contrary, he says they are
conducting an aggressive and ac-
tive campaign, and expressing abb
solute confidence that the state win
give Mckinley and Roosevelt a
larger majority than it gave Me-
Kinley and Hobart in 1896, and
that the Legislature will be repub-
lican and and Senator Elldns re-
elected. Mr.. Smith is speaking in
Ohio this week.

MONTGOMERY STREET FAIR.
A Genuine Success. With Plenty
of People TO Witness.

The seeord annual Street Fair NJ
Montgomery City proved n suAess in
every respect. The crowds on Thurs
day aud Friday reminded Que Of Old
settlers iay. The merchants OF the
town are to be congratulated npon the
c%oDveniences aud entertainment ar
ranged for The people as well as for
the liberal premiums offered.
The heavy rains the first day no
doubt prevented many from making
entries in the several departments.
In the farm products there were
some fins specimens, but not as many
rs a wear ago The exhibit by Jas. +.
Ball from the products of his garden
brought out considerable comment.
Mr.. Coils farm exhibit was made up
OF many varieties aud was a finc rep
reseniative Of what Montgomery
county soil eau produce.
In Tho stock rings il reminded one
OF the old time county fnirs-Gne cat
tie, fine horses, tue mules, and lois Of
them. Us Montgomery county fellows
naturally didn't smile very big when
so many ribbons found their homes
yer in Galloway. In thr cattle ring
Hensley Bros. simply cleaned mp the
platter.
The number Of premiums offered
reached $50. A great many failed to
attract h competitor. The Leader has

Chairman Bnbcock and Vice
Chairman Hull, of the Republican
Congressional Campaign Commits
tee, are In Washington for the pug-
pose OF comforting with Rcprescn-
tatfvo Loudcnsiager who has charge
OF the Eastern work OF the COM
mittee. Mr.. Babcock, who has q
record OF never having made a
mistake, in predicting the resulted
a congressional campaign, says the
republican voters have it in their
power to retain control OF the House
that there is no need Tor their
making converts, il they win only
get out their own iull vote. He
says the only danger lies in the
belief of republicans that the party
is SO sure to win that there is no
need for them to work and to
vote-a belief that every republican
who holds should at once get rid
of.

TO THE TAN

Is 1t possible for a man who has
never been a laboring man to fully
appreciate the needs OF the laboring
class?
Is it possible for a man who has
never been a laboring man to have
labor conditions well enough in
hand TO offer an intelligent remedy
for the ills attendant upon them9
Bring these two questions home
to yourself, study them out for
yourself and then remember that
Joe Flory has labored as hard as
any man. Dockery has never
soiled his hands?

Keep Something Going On.

The prosperity OF a town depends
upon keeping something going all
the time. When public enterprise
after public enterprise is begun,
carried along and completed the
first thought of many citizens is
that surely the last enterprise has
been accomplished or viii be soon.
The town will soon need nothing
more. This, however, is an error.
The town which becomes satisfied
with itself, which stops making
progress, is like an individual who
does not go forward. There is
first stagnation and then retro
gression.-Walter Williams in the
Columbia Herald.

The Loot Of the School Fund.

From the ST. Louis Globe Democrat.
A few years ago the people of
Missouri owned a school fund
amounting to about S5,000,000 in
United States bonds. The intcr-
est paid came from a solid invest
ment, and was just that much gain
to the tax payers Of the state. Blu
those government bonds solt
by tho Democratic authorities a
Jefferson City and state certihc.te'
of indebtedness took their place
Upon these certificates the tax
payers of Missouri themselves pay
the interest. Instead of receiving
5 or six per cent interest, they pay
It. Instead of owning $50, 200, 600
in government bonds, they hold a
corresponding amount in a state
debt which they must discharge
themselves, principal and interest.
The asset of former years, good for
its face anywhere in cash, is now a
debt that a only be paid by tax
alton. Ii an individual had lost
his government bonds in such an
extraordinary manner he would
say he had been robbed. But
Missouri is such a sure Democratic
State that its tax payers will
possibly enjoy this loot OF the
school fund.

bit law?
And say, again, Mr.. Mabry,

you are elected, to extend the basic
principle of democracy, Home rule,
to the city Of st. Louis and allow
them the privilege of selecting their
own police commissioners, to say
how many policemen they desire
and how much they will pay
them?

Poor, inconsistent Dockery. He

her and then comes home and says:

there is not a farmer in Montgom-
cry county who would pay out
money for a farm unless the title
was good?

The campaign in Ohio was OPEN
ed last Saturday with speeches by
Senators Hanna, Depew and Fora
ker, and good ones they were.
Senator Hanna, in his remarks,
told the most fitting story of the
season. Seeinga man in the audi
ence with a dinner pail, he re-
marked that the whole issue was
in that dinner pail, whether the
prosperity that should iill that din
ner pail full, should continue or
not. In illustration OF the fact, he
said:
81 was told of a country boy who
was driving home his COW and calf
from pasture. They encountered
a steer on the road, and the calf
followed the steer and left its
mother. The boy started to run
after the calf to bring it back,
but they both ran from him, and
after exhausting himself he stopped

If any of the European govern


If any of the European govern
ments that are greedy for Chinese
territory figured on having the
u. S. help them to get it, they
know better now. They also know
that President McKinley's idea of
how to do a thing is to do it. This
information was given them in the
latest diplomatic notes from this
government, which informed them
that the American minister had
been instructed to make the pre-
liminary arrangements for negoti-
ating with the peace ENJOYS of
the Chineee government. 1t was
at the same time made public that
the American troops in China, ex-
cepting a strong guard for the le-
cation, would at once be with
! drawn. This government had given
its whilom allies a hint several
weeks ago that although it would
prefer to act in concert with the
other governments in a settlement
with China, it vas prepared to act
alone ii necessary. The difference
between the two powers, as repre-
sented by Russia, which wishes TO
withdraw from China, and Ger
many which wishes to stay and
impose conditions which will bring
ON a war, satisfied this government
that it was time to act, and 1t has
done so, and there isn't the slight
est doubt that its action will be
commended by public sentiment
in this country.
