THE COMMONER,
Mr.. Bryan's Paper.

The Commoner has attained within
six months from date of the first issue a
circulation of 100, 600 copies, record
probably never equaled in history of
American periodical literature. The un-
paralleled growth of this paper demon
strates that there is room in the news
paper fieldfor national paper devoted
to the discussion of political, economic
and social problems. To the columns
of The Commoner, Mr.. Bryan contrib
utes his best efforts: and his review of
political events as they arise from time
to time can not fail to interest those
who study public questions.
The Commoner's egularsubscription
price is S1.00 per year. We have ar
ranged with Mr.. Bryan whereby we
can furnish his paper and the weekly
Democrat together for one year for
Sl.50. The regular subscription price Of
the two papers when subscribed for
separately is 5000.

"We learn that Stuart NJ. VAN

late Capt. Jacob S. Wamsley, who

dent of the county court of this

townsman, ex-Prosecuting Attor.
ney, Jared L. Wamsley.
Mr.. Wansley was born and rear
ed in this county and moved to Ok
lahoma about six or seven years
ago, where he has since resided.
The people Of Caddo county
will do well to elect Mr.. Wamsley
TO the office TO which he aspires, as
he is a careful business man and
will look well to the affairs OF his
county, and the people having Sc
cured the services of such a man,
need not fear extravaganza or mis-
management in the financial affairs
of the county, as Mr.. Wamsley Is
honest beyond doubt and pecul-
iarly qualified to attend to matters.
All can rest assured with Mr.. Wam-
sley a member of their court, that
the taxes they pay will not be squan-
dered. but will be used only for
necessary expenditures for county
purposes.

POEM BY KIPLING.
His Tribute in Verse to the Master
Mind of British south Africa.

LONDON, April .9.-The Times this morn
ing publishes a four-stanza poem by Rud-
yard Kipling, which is to be read at the
interment of Cecil Rhodes tomorrow. The
second stanza is as follows:
Dreamer devout, by visions led
Beyond our guess or reach
The travail of his spirit bred
Cities in place of speech.
So huge the administering thought that
drove,
So brief the term allowed,
Nations, not worlds, he linked to prove
His faith before the crowd"
Then. describing the dead waiting for the
granite tomb at Matoppo Hills in fulfillment
of his vision the poem concludes:
THE immense and brooding spirit still
Shall quicken and control:
Living, he was the land, and dead,
His soul shall be her SOUL
