FIGURED ON ITS DEATH.

The New York Evening Post is one
OF the independent papers away down
east that is discouraging the further
n c Of Bryanism: The paper can see
the finish Of the fellows who are try
ing to thwart the reorganization Of
the democratic party under the new
order of things. The fellows who are
still standing on the Chicago platform
Of 1896 and the Kansas City platform
of 1900 are graded as the ones who
are a greater menace to the success
of democracy than any body else.
The Post figures it out this way that
Organism is a thing of the past:
There can be but one end to the
present conflict in the democratic
party, as there could be but one to
that which ragged in the same organ
lZatjon a generation ago. The tinan-
cial issue which Bryan represented in
1896 and 1900 is as thoroughly set
tied now as was the reconstruction
issue which Francis P. Blair had
represented in 1868 by the time that
Tilden became the leader of his par
ty. The overwhelming majority of
democrats recognize this as clearly
as do the republicans, and they are
as strongly opposed to Bryan's at
tempt to keep it alive now as the
overwhelming majority of democrats
in 1876 would have been to a serious
attempt by the Bourbons of that day
to make the campaign Of that year
on the dead and buried issue Of 1868.
One needs only to study democratic
newspapers throughout the country
to see that the tide sets against Bry-
anism With a force that is simply
irresistib e.8
Mr.. Brvan's day has passed. The
most that h, can now do is to make
more complete the ruin Of his own
reputation.
AS a mischie maker, pure and
simple. he can cause more Or less
trouble. and he can delay somewhat

TO HAVE NEW PARTY.

There has been a long silence on
the part Of Richard Frank Pettigrew.
but it has been broken at last and
we + led to believe that the eX-
senator is still in the political field.
For several years Mr.. Pettigrew has
been mingling around the money
changers and his bank account is
said to be much larger as a conse-
quence, being classed as a million
aire. MI. Pettigrew is now in a
class of four men who are going to
organize a new political party. The
other three men are Senator Dubois,
Of Idaho, Geo. H. SHIRLEY, of Wash
ington. and our own Garrett B. Drop
pers, president of the state university
Of Vermillion. These gentlemen met
at Manhattan Beach, N. Y, and
discussed the formation Of the new
party. 1t is democratic in its ma
ture and will have a tendency to
overthrow the recognized democrats.
Mr.. Pettigrew speaks of the new
venture in this way:
MIR. Bryan will not be the candi-
date Of the regular democracy in
1904, sbut he and his friends hope
that he will have much to say regard
ing the platform and the management
of the campaign. II he does not.
Mr.. Bryan and his associates will
form a new party, based on the
Kansas GitV nl4tfOrm
Free silver will not again be a
political issue. When we demanded
the free coinage of silver we wanted
more money. Since then immense
new gold fields in Alaska and South
Africa have been opened; there is
more money than ever before. and
greater prosperity. This result is
what we predicted when we asked
for more money. Times r good in
the west, in spite of the beef trust.
The farmers get more for their cat
tie and higher prices for their GER
calls.
But on other principles aside from
silver, the west has not changed.
We adhere to the original principles
of democracy, although the country
is fast drifting away from all its old
muorings. The main trouble is the
departure from the original plan of
government. A Fourth Of July ora
tion of ten years ago will not fit now.
Mr.. Pettigrew has little use for
MI. Hill or MI. Cleveland, and gives
them mighty poor standing as demo-
Gratis. He thinks that in the next
campaign that government owner
ship of public utilities would cut
quite a figure.

Bank Increased It's Capital.

oulln lttl CuSCN 1GS Cnpltuls
The owners of the Bank Of AL
pena, among whom are o. L. Branson
and J. R. Millliken, OF this city,
have decided to make some good i'm
provements on its property. Messrs.
Branson and Milliken were in attend
ance at a meeting Of the bank off,
Gals, when they agreed to erect a
new building for the enterprise. It
will be constructed of brick and work
will commence on the same at once,
or as soon as men car be secured to
do the work. At the same meeting
it was decided to increase the capital
Of the institution to s12, 900 to meet
the increased demands in the bust
ness OF the bank. On August lst
Mr.. Milliken will become the cashier
OF the Institution.

the speed Of reorganization, as when
his influence awaited last week to Sc
cure a reafirmation of the Kansas
City platform from the Missouri
state convention. But a politician
who is once exposed as a ~self-seeker,
bent upon running it he cannot
rule, will not long have the power to
do much harm. The American peo-
pie have ceased to think about the
Chicago platform Of 1896 and the
Kansas City platform of 1900. They
are thinking now about the record
made by the republican party in con-
gress during the session which has
just closed. 1t is refreshing to find
evidence in all parts Of the country
that Bryan can no longer divert many
democrats from giving their undivid-
ed attention to live issues.

There is a strong possibility that
the ov%erzealous Mr.. Griggs, who has
the distinction of being chairman
of the democratic congressional COM
mittee, will overreach in his desire
to create a feeling of distrust among
the people toward President Roose-
velt. Mr.. Griggs at the present
time is trying to impress the people
of the country for the benefit of
the future of the democratic party.
that President Roosevelt is not
sincere in his attitude toward the
great trusts of the country, and
that he is simply playing to the gal
leries with the hope of strengthening
his cause before the people Of the
country for a denomination. This
attitude is becoming so pronounced
as to cause some dissatisfaction
among the democrats themselves.
Several democratic newspapers are
not at all in sympathy with Nj.
Griggs, notably the Detroit Free
Press, one of the ablest democratic
papers in the country. 1t says
"Such faults as he has grows out
of his extreme candor and that ag-
gressiveness which is at its best
when he is opposed. He is not only
a born fighter but he fights ir the
open and the prospect of encounter
ing defeat impairs neither his bray
cry or his valor.' The Free Press
doubtless voices a large sentiment
among democratic newspapers that
the president is unqualifiedly in
earnest in his desire to relieve the
people Of the burden of the trusts.
We're he less sincere it is doubtful
ii President Roosevelt would have
dragged men like Morgan and Hill
into the courts or caused the investi-
cation Of the meat trust and coal
trust. 1t is not the policy of the
president to eXterminate in any
degree, but he does desire TO place
the combinations under the control
Of governmental regulations. Mr..
Griggs will make an egregious blum.
der if he forces his method Of trying
to bring President Roosevelt into
%disrepute.

We packed our breakfast in a basket

We packed our breakfast IN a DaSheG
small,
And tied it to our wheels so it
wouldn't fall,
And two merry maidens with hearts
so gay.
Set out for the woods so far away.
Our fire we built, il breakfast we
cooked,
We were very happys but oh! how
we looked!
The meal was eaten with appetite
great,
And we sighed for more of that
lovely cake.
Shoes and stockings then came off,
Thinking we would the clear brook
Safely we reached the opposite shore.
But we vowed to do it nevermore.
One of the maidens so light and free,
Climbed to the top of an old elm
tree,
And proclaimed in oratory grand
a loving tribute to the heroes OF
our land.
The other maid with hair of gold,
Mounted a stump and there she told
The story of how, so long ago,
Our pilgrim fathers fought their
foes.
Many things we cannot tell
Which that morn to us befell,
And though men point with scornful
finger,
In our memory they will linger.

That cheese story from "The Limo
type" has had a phenomenal run
through the press for a filler, and we
are right GLAD it has about run its
course. About every other paper we
have picked up from the exchange
table in the past week or two has had
that cheese story printed until it has
got entirely too fragrant. Cheese it.

away, leaving his bank, home, wife
and two children, for the sake of Min

who ran Terwilliger's farm. The af-
fair died out for a while, and is being
revived by definite rumor that it was
a sure case of blackmail. A prominent
resident is away now, negotiating be-
tween Terwilliger and his wife, and
says that in a few months TerwiHiger
will give the girl up, and Mrs. Terwill-
iger will give up her home in Mon
tague, and go 10 the husband of her
youth. II is almost a certainty now.
however, that Terwilliger was forced
20 do what he did. and will never come
back to Montague. Those who know
won't tell where he is They think his
creditors will be paid in full.
