I'm 1904 the Populist party will have
ticket in the field for the Presidency,
Independent of any other party. We
will poll more votes for Populist
candidate then than we did when we
put up Weaver. Since then we have
twice fused with the Democratic party
and given it our votes In all that
time the Democratic party has taught
its voters to despise Clevelandism
and those teachings will be remem-
bered. The result will be that in 1904
we will not only get all the votes we
got for Weaver. but we will get large
part of the Democratic vote also. as
have no doubt that by that time the
Democratic party will be in the hands
of the Cleveland Democrats and will
be endeavoring to foster Clevelandism
cannot undertake to say what vote
we will then poll, but it will be a large
one and the largest we have ever had"

Emile lola.

The tragic death Of Emile lola, as
related in yesterdays papers. deprives
France of her most conspicuous literary
figure and the world of it's greatest ex-
| tremist in the line of realistic novel
writing The ability Of lola has never
been questioned. but there have been
divergent opinions as to the use he
| made Of his remarkable gifts. He
made the world no better by his many
books. His genius was devoted 20 the
minutest dissection of vice and crime
and to what is morally and physically
abnormal. 1t was real enough, but it
| was depressing, pessimistic and un-
wholesome. lola is not to pc confused
| with the mass of French writer's who
profess to aim at realism. His aim was
to draw truthful picture rather than
| to cater to a perverted appetite. His
novels are powerful. exact, clever and
daring, and sohis fame will live in liter
ature He is an immortal, though the
French Academy persistently barred
him from its circle
The most glorious circumstance in
the life of Emile lola was his defense
of Captain Dreyfus. In making his
memorable and magnificent fight for
the oppressed Jew of Devils Island. he
stood ready to sacrifice his liberty, his
wealth and his SuceSS as a writer which
he had struggled for quarter of
century to attain. He threw his whole
soul into the cause of truth and JUS
tice. and he paid with exile for his
courage and patriotism. 1t was one of
the most inspiring spectacles which
France of our generation has witnessed
and will be remembered long and
gratefully by humanity.
