DEMOCRACY'S TURN THIS YEAR.

of Bryan and Stevenson.

The Political Pendulum to Swing in Favor
of Bryan and Stevenson.
In every election for president in
which the same candidates confronted
each other twice in succession, the
nominee who was beaten in the first
instance won in the second. Jefferson,
who was defeated by John Adams in
1896, defeated Adams in 1900. Jack
SOD, who was left behind by John
Quincy Adams in the contest which
went to the house of representatives. in
1924. was far ahead of Adams in the
electoral college IN 1928. William
Henry Harrison, who was easily beaten
by Van Buren, in 1886, just as easily de-
feated Van Buren, in 1870 Cleveland,
who was IS in the minority In the cleo
toral college in 1888, in the contest
against Benjamin Harrison, had a ma
jority of more than double that figure,
or 1872, oyer Harrison in 1892. New
York and Indiana have been swinging
alternately from one party to another
in successive csnvasses for more than a
quarter of century, and both were
carried by the republicans in 1896
Four years of power for each party has
been the rule for several successive
presidential terms, and it is the demOc-
racy's "turn" to win in l9O0.-SOuth

About the silliest editorial that
appears in the exchanges coming to
our desk is one in the South Bend
Tribune, in which it is stated tina,
Bryan has no hopes of election and
cares little if he is not-that his aim
is to slide into the United States
senate. 1t will be remembered that
there was a senatorial vacancy
to be filled from that state last win.
ter, at which time Bryan could have
gone to the senate if he had desired
to do SO.
There never was better indica
tons of democratic success than this
year and no one is more confident
than MIR. Bryan himself. He ha,
lectured in all parts of the United
States during the past four year.
and is well able to judge the feeling
of the people.
This year the Democratic party i.
well organized; it has sufficien
money to conduct an aggressive
campaign; it has the support of thu
Germans this year, which it did no
have four years ago. The Ger
mans are opposed to imperialism
and militarism. 1t was for thes.
reasons that they came to Americ;
and they will not vote burdens upor
themselves which they crossed t.
this country to escape. In Illinois
the democrats have nominated
popular German for governor ant
this practically insures the German
vote of 10000 in that state to tin,
democracy.
In OHIO, Sam Jones, the mos

will ask the next legislature to
amend the new health law, provid-
ing that physician must be called
in case of death, and make tests to
prove that life is extinct. The
modest physician ought to be will
ing to retreat after the patient is
dead. 1t looks like doctoring with
a vengence when the physicians
persist in following the deceased
into the next world for the purpose
of swelling a doctor bill.

The Orange Judd Farmer /,

The Orange Judd Farmer con-
dennis street fairs, as usually con-
Quoted, in the severest terms and
urges that in the future cities refuse
to permit them to be held. This
stand is taken because of the demon
alizing influences which these fairs
have had upon the communities in
which they have been held and
especially upon the young people
In many places all kinds of vile
shows, gambling institutions and
other promoters of vice have been
permitted 10 carry on their business
without any effort to hinder them
This being the case, the suggestion
of The Farmer that "street fair.
cannot be abolished any too soon,
viii meet with general approval.

Ninety per cent of the travelling
men of the country are credited
with being supporters Of Bryan this
year. About this per cent of them
voted for Mckinley in 90. The
trust issue accounts for the change
as many have lost their positions
because of the trusts, fostered by the
Mckinley administration.
