Mr.. Bryan's utterance, calling for
all Ohio Democrats to support the Dem
ocratic ticket, does not please the Ohio
State Journal. This indicates that Mr.
Bryan is right.
King Edward VII, Of England, late
prince Of Wales, of bad memory
has had hung in prominent place
in the palace of Windsor, list Of rules
for the government of attaches of the
household. One of the rules reads:
Keep no bad company" Under the
circumstances this seems impossible,
if the help hopes to hold its job.
Chicago is threatened with beer
famine. 1t was occasioned by strike
of engineers and firemen. This strike
business is getting serious.
The GAINESVILLE Signal claims to have
discovered the original rubber-neck. 1t
gives it an elastic and classic name,
and seems to have some authority for
it's claim, but has overlooked a photo
graph Of the Honorable Charles Dick
when somebody yells bolt.

indicates that as soon as Mr.. Hanna
gets the bad taste out of his mouth,
he will definitely announce his candi-
dacy.
Jim and Cole Younger have just got

seen an electric car. They have re-

what they missed. To the Younger

their scent and failing to capture thei,
game. The prisoner they were after
was John Sefcrt, sent up from Salem.
The man was reeaptured, but not by the
bloodhounds. OF course the brutes are
kept at the public expense.-Salem
