The Bryan men of Ohio, disgusted
at the platform adopted by the Demo-
Gratis of the State, which ignored their
idol and his rawlings. have decided to
call a convention OF their own, and
nominate an independent ticket
Doubtless Mr.. Bryan is behind this
movement, but, II so, he is displaying
bad judgment, for the vast majority OF
the party will follow the call OF the
organization, even though the road lead
TO perdition.

lust forbearance

From the St Louis Republic.
This government should steadily
maintain that position with regard to
the payment CT the Chinese indemnity
which indicates a just desire that the
burden placed on the offending nation
shall not be made unduly heavy be-
cause Of international spite or ra-
pacity. China justly owes to the full
the damages arising from the
Boxer rebellion, and the native out
RACES in Pekin and the provinces. This
is a mere matter Of justice, to the ad-
ministration of which all the powers
interested must innexibly attend. But
justice is one tfing and the looting Of
helpless nation is quite another. The
United States Government has hereto
fore been consistently fair in its atti-
tude toward China II insists upon
the payment Of its rightful claim
against China, but 1t does not seek to
impose oppressive conditions. II is
willing to accepta low rate OF interest II
is willing to allow China 10 raise the
necessary revenues in the least hurtful
manner There is dignity and for
bearance in this course which is com
mendable to a degree. 1t should be
maintained to the close of the Chinese
question

The Democratic Awakening

From the North American.
1t would be we'll for the Republican
leaders to give pause for serious
thought at this interesting political
juncture. The action of the Ohio
Democratic Convention in not only
failing 20 indOrse the Kansas City plat
form as a matter of course, but utterly
declining to do so when the measure
was proposed, and in rejecting any
proposition to adopt resolutions Of
adulation or even mild approval Of
William Jennings Bryan, was full Of
significance. Emphasis was added by
the next day declarations of Demo
cratic statesmen and politicians from
every part OF the United States. The
unity OF opinion was remarkable. There
was no voice except one of approval
for the Ohio Democratic course. IL is
/ evident that the national party will
abandon its silver theories IL is a
certainty that the party which claims
jefferson as its parent is preparing not
for a campaign of defense. but for one

is evidently organizing for war on the

American people, and the

KING BLANCO

Wilmington has long been harbor-
ing real live king unawares. The
reason this fact has not hitherto
reached the public ear. is the modesty
Of the new monarch In fact, his long
line Of ancestors going back for TWO
lundrod years has been similarly sf-
iicted.
According to his majestys simple
AMI Araightforward account his mOsh
er was the elder sister OF Victoria, and,
there fore, should have inherited the
crown. He says that Cousin Eddie is
real mean to keep him cff the throne

II IS not known whether his i'm

Wilmington; perhaps it might rival
that Iresided over by Judge Churca-
man. Before a real king the splendorI
OF the Duke Of Claymont pales into in
significance. II Rlanco wants a royal

tion in office One great danger to
the Republican party is over-conh-
dence.
II may also be suggested that the
deeds of omission performed by the
Ohio Democracy and the subsequent
interviews with Democratic sub
chieftains which were printed in the
North American OF yesterday afford
ground for reflection on the part OF
the editor Of the Comm oner as well as

The threatened extension OF the
strike Of the steel workers to the en-
ployes OF the national and the federal
steel companies should be averted II
reason and diplomacy can secure that
end. The announcement is made by
President Shaffer OF the Amalgamated
Association Of workers. that he will
issue a circular which will have the
effect OF laying of 100000 men. This
is an enormous power to be put into
the hands of single man, and few
would care 10 assume the responsible
ity. II means that at least a million
and a half OF people will be temporarily
deprived OF their source OF support,
and actual suffering may ensue. 1t
means an actual loss somewhere OF
many millions OF dollars-a loss that
can never be made good. Perhaps these
regularly recurrent strikes cannot be
prevented; perhaps capital is disposed
to refuse labor its just wage; but in
the science OF modern economies, these
relations should be adjusted in order
that labor may be contented, and cap
ital protected

'Tis a wise cook who refrains from
meats in hot weather menus, and
gives us fruits and ices instead. The
midsummer fiction number OF Success
has followed this happy dietetic rule.
There is an appetizing bit of fiction or
a breeze Of wholesome literary or ar
tistlc Inspiration on every page.
A splendid feature is dOuble-page
description of how the twenty-nine
immortals started for the Hall OF
Fame. Over thirty drawings were
made especially for this article, under
he assistance of DR.. Henry Mitchell
MoCracken, the scholarly president Of
the Hall of Fame Senate. Incidents
unfamiliar to the general reading public
have been seized in many cases, while
in a few others. such as those OF Wash
ington Franklin and Clay, the selec-
tiOns are not new. DR.. McCracken
and Success have. however, got the ro-
nance out of the entire list.
The fiction is supplied by George II.

THE CORN CROP

The great Southwest is undergoine
a terrible drought, accompanied by ex.
cessively hot weather and torrid winds
All vegetation is parched, and, accord.
ing to reports, crops are nearly ruined
There is yet no relief in sight, and the
outlook is not encouraging.
The crop most affected is corn, and
present estimates place that product at
only half crop Should this prove true
Ct the whole corn-producing belt. the
shortage will doubtless cause a sharp
advance in that necessary article.
Our peninsular farmers will doubt
less profit by the increased price,
since there was never a finer promise
of a bountiful yield in this region. A
few years ago it was thought that our
farmers could no-longer compete in
grain-growing, with the possible excep-
tion of wheat, but experience has
shown the reverse. Wheat has been
grown in most cases at an actual loss.
while corn, as a rule, has paid. Per-
haps the reason is that corn is grown
under pretty much the same condi-
tions wherever it is planted at all,
while wheat is produced on such an
extensive scale in the West that the
profit is in the lessened expense for
seeding and handling.
One Delaware farmer has figured
that he can plant corn and bring it to
maturity for the value OF the fodder,
while wheat, unless the crop is excep-
tionally heavy, can only be figured at
a loss. In recent years, too, there has
always been a good local demand for
corn, the market frequently ruling
several cents higher than in the cities.
A good yield and fair price mean a
great deal to Kent and Sussex sounties.

this number, just suitable in their ma

more popular than ever this season.
