toned TOR the nomination are Hon. Chas. Bullock
and Hon ]. B. Romans. Its said by some that
Mr. Romans could have the nomination for the
asking and that he would accept but for the fact
that>he is under an implied promise Mr.. Bullock
not to stand in his way Either would make strong
candidates from the democratic standpoint Both
men are wealthy and are thus in position to champ
ion the rights OF the poor Mr.. Bullock has the
longer record as simon pure democrat but what
Mr.. Romans lacks in this direction he has made up
for in enthusiasm during the short time that he has
been member Of that party. The Review has lit
tie interest in the affair other than to tell the news
It would not support either of them for such Of
fee and still it thinks that they are perhaps as rep
resentative democrats as could be found and has
nothing to say against their ambitions

DEN1soN's OPPORTUNITY.

glorious opportunity has come to Densen to
obtain a splendid public library, which will be
OF infinite benefit to the community and one which
will be the pride of all our citizens For many
years, through the benefacton of Mrs. Mckim,
Denison has had reading room in every way suf-
hcient for the needs of our city. The only thing
which has. prevented the McKim Hall from being
more Of factor in our community has been the
we'll known lack of recent and interesting books.
The intellectual palate has become satiated with
the works of Cooper and Scott, very good books,
but, our reading public has perused them and wish
es something more. The Friday Club recognized
this need and was the means of adding $3.50 worth
OF new and interesting biographies to the library
Through the agency Of Prof. H. H. Savage, DEM
son has now offered to it the of $1,000 for the
purchase of books, provided $4,000 additional is
subscribed by citizens. 1t would be shame
and disgrace to this community to let this offer
pass 1t would be for us to confess that we have
less interest in own city and in the welfare of
Its youth than has the generous hearted man who
makes the offer. $500 we'll expended will add not
less than 1000 books to the library; it will
age habits of reading and will make the McKim
Hall the most popular place in town. We know
enough of Denison to feel assured that there will
be no hesitancy in raising the additional $4,000 ne
cessaryto secure the gift There are at least ten
men in our city who could amply afford to make up
the amount, but this should not be askedit should
be pleasure contribute something it should
be joined in by rich and poor alike. Every citizen
will be proud of the fact that he has a personal
share in the library, and will feel more of person
al interest in it.
The subscription should be started at once and
the interest in the work should not flag for mo-
ment until the entire amount is subscribed. Mark
Twain tells of the danger of not acting in such
matters while the interest is at its height. He
tells that he heard missionary preach so
earnestly that he felt sorry that he only had $500
in his pocket and looked around to, see where he
could borrow more. The service dragged along
for while and he concluded that SIoo was enough
to>give Then there was still longer delay until
he got sleepy and tired and when finally the con-
tribution taken up he stole ten cents from the
plate. delays in such cases, says the humorst,
.,provoke to crime" Let US have no delay in
this matter.

THE ASSESSMENTS.

AS usual there has been some complaint with the
ton of assessments No man set of men is in
faliable but we believe the interests of the taxpav-
ers could not be in better or more conservative
hands. There will always be injustice in the mat
ter of taxation SO long the present system pre-
walls. The man who has his money invested
where is in plain view of the assessor will always
pay more in proportion than the man who has
his property hidden in monies and credits concern
ing which is difficult for an assessor to obtain an
exact information. The council has many difficult
tasks but perhaps the ost difficult Of all is the adj
ljustment of the property VALUATION. For this
|son, even though some of the assessments may APP
pear highto the persons interested, we inclined
to give the council the benefit of the doubt for we
are sire they have acted, not from personal spite
or the wish to do anyone an injury, but from the
best information they could obtain.
DEMOCRATIC SENATORIAL SITUATION
| 1t becomes and more apparent that the
democrats of this district inclined to concede
the nomination for state senator to Crawford coun.
ty. The question is therefore before the demo-
Gratis of the county to whom they shall select as
their candidate. So far we have heard but two
names mentioned in this connection although it is
understood that there are still others who would
appreciate the honor. Those who have been men

BAILEY, of the Britt Tribune is one of the most
original propositions in Iowa Journalism. He has
a way Of saying more things about a man without
making him mad than any other man on the Iowa
press. This is the way he tells about one of his
friends being in town:
COON George Boyle was over from Whittemore
Tuesday. Dom George is dealing in lands, poll
tics banks religion, social functions chattel mort
cages, science astronomy, cayuses, city propertN
geology, literature loans, matrimonial bureaus art
telephone lines, law, meteorology, live stock and
taxidermy He is quite active for an old man, a
genuine ladies man, ambitious, handsome and
sauve, but he makes his politics and keeps
the whole.community dodgng his broadsides He
is equally at home in livery stable or class
meeting and handy allzround man to have at we'd
dings and dog fights. He borders somewhat on
EN- bon point and has heart in him as big as
four-quart basin and no man in Kossuth county
will be missed more than Dom George when he
shufhes off this mortal coil if he ever does He is
also an optimst, cynic, philanthropist and an
old cuss in politics..

BRYAN VS. CLEVELAND.

Mr.. Bryan and MI. Cleveland have recently been
INDUCING in a little joint debate as to democracy
The Review has never been an admirer of either Of
these men, When some republicans were inclined
to eulogize Mr.. Cleveland because he had sense
enough not to follow off after free silver the Re-
view could not forget the many acts of blind stu
,pidity and low bestiaity OF which he had been
guilty. Nevertheless in the recent controversy
Cleveland shows gentleman and a scholar beside
the recent leader Of the democratic hosts The
letter written by Mr.. Cleveland was dgnihed and
earnest. 1t showed that he had given attention to
the questions of the day and had real regard for
what he considered the best interests of the demo
cratic party. Mr.. Bryan's answer was what NIGH
have been expected Of a school boy in the smart
and sassy" age He offered reward of SIS if Mr..
Cleveland would give definition of democrat.
Such chlds-play, such attempt at cheap humor was
unworthy OF man who has twice been candidate
for the presidency of the United States and but
emphasizes the fact that this country was very for
tunate inlescapng the iniietion of having Mr..
Bryan. occupy the presidents chair
