one or the potent arguments
used by the Bryanites during
the campaign to persuade them
selves that a great change had
come over the country since 1896
in favor of Bryan was that great
gains had been maze in the way
of support from the newspaper
press of the country. Long lists
were printed Of papers said to
have opposed Bryan four years
before who were then support
ing him, although the news
papers which in the interval had
gone back on Bryan were almost
invariably ignored.
Now that the election is over
it Is amusing to find an inspired
Brya1 organ like the Nebraska
Independent quoting approving
ly from the Ithaca Democrat
what it calls "some plain truths
about the democratic campaign
in New York. which it assures
its readers is in substance just
what the Independent said on the
subject at the time. The ''plain
truths read as follows:
The comments since election
Of the leading democratic papers.
the New York World and the
New York Journal among the
number, prove that their sup
port of Mr.. Bryan was reluctant
" given and was due more to
their opposition to Mckinley
and the policies of the republican
party than to any harmony be
tween their own views and those
of Mr.. Bryan upon the issues OF
the campaign.
The Independent adds it's own
testimony there was not a daily
newspaper in New York that
gave Bryan hearty support.
And speaking as it does for those
who have always been closest
to Mr. Bryan at his own home it
evinces suspicion, at least, that
these great newspapers, whose
support was heralded as the har
binger of success, were simply
acting a role assigned to them
by the democratic leaders anX
ious to beat Bryan and relegate
him to the rear.
The starting point in this in
aictment is that it includes tht
New York Journal and its pro
! prietor, Mr.. Hearst, who adver
tised himself SO extensively a.
president of the National League
of Democratic Clubs, and Wh'
made himself sponsor for th'
fatal Tammany alliance. Mr.
Hearst's paper has admitted tha
it was neither in favor Of tn
revival Of the Is to l issue no
opposed to expansion, but ac
cepted the attitude Of Bryal
simply because imposed by hin
, on the Kansas City convention
, If the same is true of the othe
newspapers which were SO loud

, i,e fold, the natural inference i
! that most of them were playing
the same bunco game.

of gloom and its mountains of sorrow,
its lessons of hate and its argument

In ANOTHER column of this issue we print an ar
ticle under the caption Of ''The Criminal Problem y
The article differs widely from the many essays we
have read on this subject by eminent criminoogists
It nevertheless offers practical solution of the
vexed question and delves right to the main artery
by which society is being submerged with vice.
Many of reformers of today who studiously
laboring to combat crime, generally confne their
observations to penitentiaries, believing that
within it's confines crime may be scientifically treated
Their contention is worthy of all due consideration
for if humane predominant, manifestations
of improvement will ultimately result to the majority
Still where there is no classification cure-all meas
ure will prove abortive. There are also those who
are firmly rooted to the orthodox belief that severe
discipline is important factor in refining and ele-
waiting prisoners character. This may be true but
when discipline becomes allied to harshness it has
tendency to ncite the brute nature in man instead
of producing calmness of spirit and cheerful obedi
ence to prescribed rules Notwithstanding the tire
mendous efforts put forth toward lessening crime,
no great reduction is possible until the cause is re-
moved When its source of supply is cut off then
and only then can you hope for solution of the
criminal problem.

act would lower this country considerably below the

To REFER to an old man as fool is neither

WE HAVE received letter from an ex-prisoner
of New York who informs us that he finds it almost
impossible to live honest and make comfortable
living He says that lie would rather be prisoner
than live the way thousands of the poorer classes
compelled to live in New York. The only solution
that will alter such deporable conditions is through
socialism. The various political parties offer no sub
stantial remedy. Church and organized charity
have for years been making sporadic attempts to re-
lieve immediate wants but offer practical theory
whereby these conditions will be impossible AS we
have said before, the only remedy brought forward
that seems feasible, is that of the socialists Some
may pronounce their theories being vagary, and
denounce them as fanatics and anarchists neverthe
less profound consideration of their doctrines will
easily dispel these Illusions
