forward; it appeals to them with
the promise of widening oppor-
tunity and more assured success.
The democratic party and its
candidates stand pledged to, the
repeal of all such legislation. The
organization and it's standard
bearers alike are arrayed against
the tendencies to monopoly and
monopoly is arrayed solidly
against them. The issue is clearly
drawn and there can be no room
for any mistakes. The election of
Bryan and ademocratic congress
will infallibly mean the undressing
of the trusts, the overthrow of
legislative privilege. There is no
halfway ground. There is no
room for compromise. Either
Bryan, the unfinching foe of
privilege, will be elected, or Nc
Kinley, the champion of the trusts
and their tried friend, will be
returned to power which he has
welded unwaveringly in the in
terest of Industrial concentration.
The democratic position is clear
and open and without reservation
or evasion. It will kill the trusts
and monopolies if intrusted with
power. It will tear down the
instructions of class legislation.
It will fling wide the gate of
opportunity and offer to ambition
and enterprise full play without
favor. No chosed few shall usurp
the chances and reap where they
have not sown. For young and
old there shall be the simple
guarantees Of freedom to work out
their own salvation untrammeled
by the hindering hand of a
laundering paternalism.

The total vote cast four years
ago in the United States for presi-
dent was 14,073,285 out of which
Mckinley received 7,107,S22 and
Bryan6, 288,666 leayingMcKinley's
majority oyer Bryan only 9l8,956.
Palmer and Buckner received 1873,
300 which, if subtracted from Nc
Kinley's plurality, would leave
him but l50,97l. It will be seen
that there is less than 100000
votes to overcome to elect Bryan
this year. The German vote alone
will amount to many times that or
upwards of 100000. Every voter
who voted for Bryan four years ago
who is alive, will vote for him this
year together with thousands who
have got their eyes open to the
imperial-robber policy of Mark
Hanna. When such men as Hon.
Geo. Boutwell,, of Mass, Gov. Pin
gree, Of Michigan and hundreds of
others WHO supported Mckinley
four years ago come out fiat footed
for Bryan, it is strong evidence
that he will be elected by big
majority.

THERE are two new constitu.

voted on at the election this fall.
One provides for the creation of a
state board of pardons, to assume
the duties now held by the COVER
nor in the pardoning Of prisoners.
The amendment provides that the
governor, chief justice of the
supreme court and the attorney
general shall receive and consider
all applications for pardons. The
other amendment provides for the
better taxation of telegraph, tele-
phone, and dining car companies,
and if it passes, will serve to bring
into the state treasury taxes that
have not been collected heretofore.

list Delaware is strongly claimed
by the democrats. Illinois is ex-
tremely doubtful. The gold demo-
Gratis have returned to the party
and many republicans, most
notably the German element are
changing. Other elements, such
as democratic control in large
cities and the vicespresidential
nominee being a resident of the
state, favor Bryan. On the other
hand the republican majority of
four years ago was very large and
there will have to be change of
over 10000 votes to carry the
state. Both national committees
are making strong claims to its
vote. Kansas was safely within
the fusion column until two years
ago when on very light vote it
went republican. Michigan has
generally been a close state and
there will doubtless be democratic
gains. Alger and Pingree, the
most prominent republicans, are
disafected while our party is
united and active. No one can tell
what New York will do with Plat
and Croker SO powerful. Greater
New York will change from 10000
Mckinley to more than that num-
Der the other way. Ohio for so
large a state has generally been
very close. In the election two
years ago the Jones and Mclean
forces cast 10000 more votes than
Mckinley and Hanna's candidate,
Nash. This year Jones is work
ing for Bryan and it is safe to say
that very large majority Of his
supporters will 60 with him. It
is probably safer to count it for
Mckinley than for Bryan. Wis
consin will show decided demo-
cratic gain with conditions as to
harmonious action all in favor of
Democracy, but with so large a
previous republican majority as to
rather favor republican success.
California and Minnesota are put
in the list of Mckinley states, but
Minnesota is pretty sure to elect a
democratic governor and in the
last municipal elections in Califor-
MIA the democrats had all the best
of it,.

Here are some Chinese sayings
that indicate much philosophy:
Respect always a silent woman;
great is the wisdom Of the woman
that holdeth her tongue.
A vain woman is to be feared, for
she will sacrifice all for her pride.
Trust not a vain woman, for she
is first in her own eye.
A naughty woman stumbles, for
she cannot see what may be in her
way.
Trust not the woman that think.
eth more Of herself than another,
mercy will not dwell in her heart.
The gods honor her who thipketh
long before opening her lips. Pearls
come from her mouth.
A woman that is not loved is a
kite from which the string has been
taken; she drives with every wind
and cometh to naught by long
fall.
A woman and child are alike;
each needs a strong, uplifting hand.

SAD HONE COMING Mr.. and
Mrs. Joseph Marx came home from
Evansville yesterday, bringing with
them the corpse of their bright lit
tie son, Irving Wendolin Marx,
who died in Evansville December
26, 1900. It was horn Aug. Sth,
and was consequ ntly four months
and eighteen days old at its demise.
They left home to visit his parents
in Evansville during the holidays,
and their child was apparently we'll
until the day it died, when at noon
it suffered spasm and died at o.
clock. The burial will be at st. Joseph
church graveyard. Mr.. Marks
mother came up from Evansville
with them, and they were met at
the train by q large number o.
young friends. Everybody SYM
pathizes heartily with them in their
affection, and yet all realize that in
Gods goodness and mercy their
baby is now happy.
