The Egis feels not 9 little concerned
about Uncle Jimmy. For the past two
months he has hardly taken time for his
meals or allowed himsef the required hours
of rest so busy has he been in defeating
Bryan. Should the now almost impossible

we sincerely hope that the Republican leaders
will recognize that he deserves a fair share Of
the credit. They at least ought to give him
the Job OF putting lightning rods on the White
House.
The employees Of the Baltimore and Ohio

of ballot Mr.. Cowen made great big mis-
take and he has found 1t out but 1t is now too
late to rectify the blunder. His speech
against Bryan will make more votes for the
Democratic ticket than anything we could
possibly have done.
