W. J. Bryan has recently invest
ed $4,000 in registered United
States four per cent. bonds. Evi-
IDENTIFY he is not afraid this country
will go broke i'll the event of Nc

It is this Tariff of nineteen thous-
andths part of a cent on a pound Of
sugar that has given the Chicago

."Great Middle West" for a long
time as the teapot tempest these
Chicago papers have stirred up ov-
er bill that reduces the Tariff on
Puerto Rican sugar ftom s. to nine
cents per hundred pounds.-Spring-

There is one issue and one man
i'll sight in the Democratic party,
Organism and Bryan, and until
those are laid away forever it will
be useless to try to find substitutes.
Deliverance in any other manner is
impossible. The Democrat who
sighs for it may we'll exclain to his

would get we'll, or suthin' !"-New

himself a reduction of wages, tC
say nothing of voting to throw him,
self out of a job.-,Minneapolis

-. Sentimentality and hysteria mus
be eliminated from Americas pol
icy of dealing not only with Ties
people but with the people of Cub

very easy matter to extend the Con
