of democracy means free silver
with all its train Of hardships and
ruin to our country. Mr.. Bryan
must know this as we'll as do the
old time leaders Of. democracy.
He must know that republicans
ask nothing better than to have
free silver again an issue; yet
knowing all this Mr.. Bryan is
quoted upon all sides as saying
that he wishes democracy to adj
here strongly to free silver, and
that that is to be one of the great
issues of the campaign. For
these reasons, while we cannot
admire Mr.. Bryan's judgment any
more than we did 1896, we car
but applaud his consistency.

TAFFY THAT DID NOT WORK.

One of the prominent German
republican farmers Of the county
was surprised a short time ago to
receive a personal letter bearing
the imprint of the Free Silver
Republican Headquarters for
Iowa, w. A. Spurrier, Committee
man, Coz, |. L. & T. Building in
Des Moines, Iowa
The recipient of the letter was
the more surprised in that he had
never figured as silver republic
can and had no disloyalty in his
heart toward the grand old party.
Instead Of taking the bait of taffy
as it was hoped that he would,
our good republican friend felt liz
suited that these free silver
montebanks should think him in
their class. The letter shows to
what straits the silverites are be-
ling put in their effort to get some
one to attend their convention at
Kansas City. Why they would
be willing to appoint any one as
a delegate if he would only con-
sent to go is hardly apparent, if it
was wished to make the conven-
ton a representative body. After
seeing the inner workings of this
democratic auxiliary, one can
better appreciate what this grand
Eloquent convention of free silver
republicans amounts to. The let
ter which Mr., Spurrier sent to
the Crawford county republican
reads as follows:
Dear Sir: Your name has
been suggested as one who would
attend the National Free Silver
Republican convention TO be held
at Kansas City on July 4, in the
capacity of a delegate. Will you
be able to attend if selected? We
should be very glad to hear from
you on the subject at an early
date. This will be an important
convention and we want to select
only those who will agree to at
tend if chosen. If gu find it inn
possible to be present, can you
suggest the name of some good
free silver republican in your
county who will attend if chosen9
Respectfully yours.
w. A. SPURRIER.

An Eng1ishman,. Manners.

Note, as las long been noted, that
the only manners the Englishman cares
about are what our country cousins
call table manners" He can lay enor-
nous stress upon these without SEEM
ing to thaw out, for they really ex-
press nothing, and meticulous nicely
in the forms of eating and drinking
pleases his innate sense of refinement
and chimes in with his dislike for max
ing mess. Yet a certain Frenchman
may not have been far wrong, after all.
In saying that 1.-The English would sure
~ not froWn so upon a mans hopping
up sauce With a piece of bread if they
themselves had ever had any sauce
worth hopping up" 1t may be that
the Englishman's perfection of deport-
ment at meals comes in part from a
lack of temptation to do otherwise.
But the truth is none the less apparent
that the complicated conventions re-
garding what to do and what to avoid
at table that obtain in England do
not in any way involve that outward
eXpressiyeness which the Englishman
abhors. He can obey them without
prejudice to his impassivity And this
cult of impassiveness. of self repres-
sion, is essentially Spartan-that of the
sayage.-sScrbner's

syiudling a Bank.

A few years ago we'll dressed man
presented himself at a certain national
bank and laid down check for So 900.
1t was signed by a well known whole
sale whisky house, and upon the back
We're the words, identification Waiv-
ed" AT the same time a well dressed
man entered the office of live stock
firm at the stockyards and asked if he
could wait in the office, as he expected
he could, and he took q seat near the
telephone.
Down in the bank the paying teller
was asking who the holder of the
check knew. He said not many firms,
as he was a stock dealer, but if the tell
er would call up Mr.. Smith of Jones &
Smith, the we'll known brokers at the
stockyards, he would find out that he
was all right. The teller called for the
humber, and when the ring answered
he asked for Smith. The man on the
end said he was Smith, and he at once
gave Brown, the holder the amount of
the check
When it was discovered that the
check was forgery, there was an aw-
full kick, as Smith said Brown was as
good as gold. Smith declared that he
had talked to no one, and the result
was an argument between Smith and
the bank teller. No one knew about
the accomplice answering the phone,
and the result was that Smith took his
account from the bank, and no one
ever knew who it was who answered
the telephone Cincinnati Enquirer.

Bryans race for the presidency
will be another case of "off agin,
ON agin, gone agin."

Those gold democrats who have
been contemplating a return to
their old party should read care
fully notice served upon them
by the Bulletin. In speaking Of
the possible nomination of David
B. Hill for vice president, the
Bulletin says: The Iowa dele
CATION is not in favor OF Hill for
anything unless he wants to come
back and serve in the ranks.
When he has served a few years
at this, he may talk of holding
office again" AS Ex-senator
Hill remained with the party or
ganization in 1896 and voted for
Bryan, we do not see the meaning
OF the Bulletin in asking him to
come back" The Bulletin sim
ply means that free silver is the
test of party loyalty to demo
cracy. On this basis we believe
the democratic vote in Crawford
will be greatly reduced.

HERESIES OF BRYANARCHY.

HERESIES OF BRYANARCHY.
Sterling Morton, after con-
ferring with some OF the eastern
democrats who, like him, refused
to support Bryan in 1896, says
that he and they will not vote for
Mr.. Bryan in 1000, even if free
silver were to be left out of the
platform to be adopted at Kansas
City next week They take this
position because 10 to is only
one of the many heresies of Bry-
anarchy
This is fact which cannot be
overlooked. Four years ago the
monetary heresy of which Bryan
was the chief exponent, was the
one which agitated the public
mind the most. The disastrous
effects OF a free coinage victory
would have been felt at once by
men in all branches of industry
The popular Endorsement of the
other heresies of the Chicago
platform would have brought
great and perhaps irremediable
evils upon the country, but not
at once.
This year the silver question is
not so conspicuous. Four years
ago free silver" was offered as
the panacea for hard times. There
are no hard times now to incline
voters to turn to wild financial
projects for relief. Therefore,
even if 40 to L should figure as
prominently in the platform Of
1900 as in that Of 1896, less public
attention will be bestowed on that
heresy than on those other here
sizes which will presumably be a
part Of the democratic creed this
year as they were four years ago.
One of those heresies is the
warm support given to that form
|of mob rule called Debsism. The
right of the national government
to enforce, without the consent Of
its governor. national laws within
a state when violated by lawless
combinations, is challenged. The
previously unquestioned authority
OF courts to notify law breake,s
to desist from evil-doing and to
punish them if they disobey its
warning, is attacked. Were this
heresy to be made rule Of &C
ton that anarchial element which
believes in government by riot
would be swift to avail itself OF
the opportunity.
Another heresy is the PROPOSE
tion that congress and not the
supreme court shall decide what
LEGISLATION is constitutional. Four
years ago the democrats. displeas-
ed with the decision of that court
adverse to the constitutlonality OF
the income tax law of 1894, spoke
in their platform of the reversal
of that decision "by the courts as
it may hereafter be constituted.
This was a threat that if the
! democracy won the number OF
Judges would be increased SO as
to get majority for an income
tax. 1t is not easy to invent a
more dangerous doctrine than
that whenever the supreme court
decides contrary to the wishes OF
the majority in congress it shall
be reconstructed SO that it may be
brought into agreement with that
majority.
The above are some of the
heresies which Mr.. Bryan believes
in, and which there are gold
democrats in the east, like Abram
S. Hewitt, and perhaps some in
Illinois, who cannot swallow. 1t
is expected that these heresies
will make part of the next demo.
cratic national platform. Ii SO
they will play more prominent
part in the issues Of the campaign
than they did in 1896, when they
we're overshadowed by the silver
question.-Chicago Tribune.

the majority of the fusionists, although
there is a sprinkling Of republicans

for the state senate was elected to sue
