BRYAN IS SANGUINE CROPS ARE BOOMING
Democratic Reorganizers Will Not
Secure Control. " g
REWARDS ONLY FOR FAITHFUL
Democrats Must BE Watchful or "The
Party Will Drift Back to
Cleveland Times. ,,

Special to The Journal. : ~ -. 4
Lincoln, Neb., May 2.-Mr. Bryan ex-
presses in this weeks Gommoner his hrm
conviction that the reorganizers VIII not
be able to control the next. national con-
yention. He says: - ::
A reader of the Commoner asks whether
there is any probability of, the reorganizers
obtaining control of the democratic party.
No, it is not probable, because there IS no
reason to believe that the voters who fought
for democratic principles in 1896 and 1900 are
willing to surrender those principles in order
to corciliate men who showed by their votes
that they were nearer to the republican posi-
ton than to the democratic position. There
would be no danger whatever if the: reorgan-
izers would present their platform and ask
for an Endorsement of their position at the
primaries; but, as they are. we'll provided
with campaign funds, and as many Of them
have pecuniary interest in bringing the party
to the support of monopolies, they will make
an effort disproportionate to their numbers:
Eternal vigilance is the price, not only of
liberty, but of everything else worth having.
The vote at the primaries in Missouri and
elsewhere shows that the people can be re-
lied upon when they understand the issue;
but the gold and corporation element in the
democratic party is always trying to confuse
and obscure the issue.
Democrats must be. on -their guard every
where or the party will drift back into the
position it occupied under Mr.. Cleveland
second term. A man can support a ticket
without indorsing all Of the platform, but a
man cannot run on platform without indoors
ing it all. If a,lnan understands the duties
of a representative he will not desire to rep
resent people who do not agree with him.
Put none but the faithful in positions ct
trust II man was against the ticket in
1896 and has really reformed, he will fee
so ashamed Of his past conduct that he will
not ask to be rewarded over those who were
faithful in the hour Of trial. If he was
against the platform in 1896 and has not re.
formed, he cannot be trusted to defend the
interests Of the people.

The fact that stocks Of faxseed in

the question Of how long the Minneapolis

they will have to close this summer for

decreased to 552,323 bushels by Saturday,

For dim old Asia's breast:
And none can call me an English wind
And none a wind of France.

Whenever the signature of a king or
queen is required in visitors book
or elsewhere. it is customary to pro
vide new pen, which is not used by
the hosts or the other guests unless it
be handed them by the royal visitor.
Another point of etiquette connected
with pens and paper is that a letter
to a sovereign is written on thick
white paper, on one side only, and is
placed in an envelope large enough
to contain the letter unfolded.
