BRYAN In OHIO.
The Democratic Candidate Speaks
at GAINESVILLE and Cambridge.

at GAINESVILLE and Cambridge.
Cambridge, o., Sept. 4.-AIr. Bryan
found several hundred people awaiting
him when he arrived at GAINESVILLE. The
train carrying him to his destination in
West Virginia made five minute stop
at that point and in response to repeat
ed calls the presidential candidate Mr..
Bryan appeared ON the rear platform of
the sleeper.
Mr.. Bryan declared laughingly that he
could not shake hands and make a
speech, but he came near doing so, for
he grasped large number Of outstretch-
ed hands and while doing so proceeded
to make brief talk to the people who
stood eagerly waiting. The speech was
informal and was frequently applauded.
After recalling his visit to GAINESVILLE in
1896, at which time, he said, he was
compelled to climb up the fire escape in
order to get into the hall where he was
to speak, Mr.. Bryan said:
''We are in the midst of another cam
paign, and you are to have your part in
the settlement of the questions which are
at issue. In every campaign several is
sues are considered, but some one issue
must be paramount in the mind of each
person. In this campaign the Demo-
cratic party believes the question of inn
perialism to me most important. The
party stands where it did in 1896 on
the money question, but it believes
that the form of government is more
important than the kind of money,
and Imperialism attacks the principles
Of government. In saying this we are
not indulging in prophecy. The Porto
Itican bill asserts the doctrine that the
Porto Ricans are beyond the protection
of the constitution. Never until within
a year has any party, asserted the doc
tline that the flag could be carried to
places where the constitution could not

At Cambridge Mr. Bryan also spoke to
a good crowd. He suggested number

Taxpayers Squeezed by Austria.

The taxpayers of Galicia have many
grievances against the Austrian gov

wicki in the Chicago Record. The
chief complaint is that the assessors
of taxes will not admit the declaration
of income drawn up by the taxpayer.
as what he really gets, but substitute
a sum which they say he ought to get.
This is flagrantly unfair and contrary
to law. and makes the taxpayer liable
to rates for what does not exist. When
challenged as to this arbitrary pro-
ceedtDg the assessors answered that
they had merely raised the taxes, and
maintained that in order to raise an
action against them the complainant
would REQUIRE to o a false state
ment. This deprives the taxpayer of
any legal remedy, except going before
the commission Of complaints; but,
as the commission is supposed to deal
with 10000 appeals within a fewsweeks
1T can be readily seen that it cannot
possibly go into the details of any
case.

would undertake alone. Besides the
long land trip to the coast, there will
be a t~hirty-day voyage aboard the
transport Warren, which puts to sea

woman aboard, the ship carrying some

two sQuadrons Of the Ninth cavalry,
enroute to China. The transport will
touch the China coast to unload these
trool before proceeding to Manila.
Mrs. STRAIT is hardly 21.years old. Her
maiden name was Juanita Johnston.

woman, and before her marriage was

What reply the son made Mollie did
not hear, for, recovering from her as
constituent, she stole quietly away,
thankful that madame's keen glance
had not fallen upon her. That Mon

he was expected-that he had come,
not because he loved his home and
wished to make her acquaintance, as
madame had repeatedly declared, but
because she had sent him an impera-
tive summons-was clear; but why
had she done SO? Nor could Mollie,
having seen the mothers hard face,
softened and beautiful with feeling,
doubt that this invisible son, with the
thin, sneering' voice, was the passion
of her life. the being for whom she
would go through fire and water.
