Bryan's silence In answering
Roosevelt's questions Is what
IN light have been expected. He is
in the enemy's country and his
p easant smile is the thing least
likely to offend the voter lie hopes
to win. He Is past the point in
the campaign where he can hope
to win by presenting the real issues
he represents. Amy answer to the
Roosevelt questions would place
him in the position of assuming a
DE- finite stand on the issues. He is
neither for gold nor for silver, for
the consent Of the governed or the
success Of the nation. He is for
Bryan and must not tread on any
ones corns If he hopes to win.

The fJurth Congressional district OF
Kansas elec ed to the 5sth Congress,
the Hon. J. M. Miller by handsome
maj arity AID 1t Is universally conceded
that heis one of lhe bsst represep tatives
That the district has ever had. The re-
pubiicans OF his district have shown
splendid judgment in renominatlng
him by acclamatien. He is q con-
soientious, able and studious member,
always at his post, and working for
the right. He never forgets his friends,
and is always wiling to assist them In
every way possible. He is among the
few Congressmen who realize that he
is the servant of the people, and that 1t
Is his duty to obey and respect their
wishes. Mr.. Miller has made himself
very popular with his colleagues and
The people of Washingt IN. His counsel
is eagerly sought by The leaders ef his
party, and his influence is widely felt
and respected. MIR. Miller belongs to the
sturdy Abraham Lincoln class Of re
publicans who cling steadfastly to the
time. honored traditions of liberty and
human rights, and who are proving
themselves the truest friends the Negro
has IN this dsy and generation. In
these times of race trou oles, the Negro
should aim to support the right men al
the polls, because his destiny IS in the
hands of his white friends. Oar desire
should be 10 retain all of orr old friends

cast an indirect vote for bis hitterest

no question about-it the republican

morality and fraternity.
1t is but natural that in all 6rganiza.
tions how ever noble, sometimes black

who prostitute prlu ciple to personal
prejudice, do not stand for the real
principles of the republican party.
The highest type OF the honest re
publicanism is plified in that noble
grand and patriotic gentleman, Hon.
]. nj. Miller. He stands as firmly on
the incipl.s of the Republican party,
equal rights, freedom and justice as
did Lincoln Garrison and Sumner.
He is for the people, regardless of color
or previous condition of servltude. A
