BRYAN ISSUES DEAD.
Ex-President Acknowledges This But
Says They Will Come to Life Again.

| Waterloo, Ia, Aug 2S.-'Nhile wait
| ing between ira ms in order 10 fill a
lecture engagement, William Jennings
Bryan talked freAiy on the coming
presidential campaign and the proba-
bilities of democratic success.
Mr. Bryan acknowledg ID frankly that
the ISSUES Of 1896 and 1900 are dead
but intimated his belief that they would
again come to life. He declared that
the papers had misquoled him in his
alleged structures OH Grover Cleveland.
| While he was firmly os the opinion that
a mistake would be male IN naming
Mr.. Cleveland for president by the
party next year, he believed that the
Cleveland wing of the party could be
brought into harmony with the regular
| organization. Mr.. Bryan said:
The papers have made me say
things in regard to Mr.. Cleveland which
never gave utteraaca to. l do not
feel as antagonistic L, the former pres
ident as some of he papers have en-
deavored to make me appear, and many
of the statements attributed t. me in
regard to him have been absolutely
false.
Il do not think Grover Cleveland Il
suitable candidate for the presidency
on the democratic ticket,( and do nor
think the national convention will
make the mistake of placing him at the
head OF the ticket Grover Cleveland
would be no stronger as candidate for
the office than myself. and l now con-
slider that / am badly out of the race
for the time at least.
II would not make an acceptable can
didate next year and would not ASK the
party to make the sacrifice of nominat
Ing me. What we need is a man who
has supported the democratic parry
thru thick and thin, who is above the
suspicion which has surrounded Cleve-
land, and who is not backed by the
moneyed powers.
My issues are dead at the present
time, but they will come to life again.
The trusts and the tariff are the main
questions to make the fight on next
year.
"A regular democrat, a man who is
strong with both factions Of the party
and who has been a democrat at all
times, is the kind Of a candidate to
name next wear"

Muscatine Citizen Victim of His Trust
In Another MANS Word.

In Another Man's Word.
Special to Times Republican.
Muscatine, Aug. 81. w. Hergot is
plaintiff in suit against Charles L.
Appel. over the signing of deed, when
at the time, plaintiff and wife supposed
TO be simply a contract. Hergot says
he was recently made to sign the deed
all because Appel was in hurry to
get uptown and desired To catch the
next car. He urged, 1t is claimed, that
1t be signed quickly, SO his car would
not pass him.
He AYERS that the defendant assured
him that the document was identical
with a verbal agreement that had been
made between them a few days pre-
vious. and that he had merely put 1t In
writing.
Accordingly, alleges Mr. Hergot, he
and Mrs. Hergot, his wife, signed the
paper, and they have since learned he
says, that their names We're affixed to
a deed, transferring to the defendant
a piece of land which they valued al
5000.
Want it Back.
And now Mr.. Htrgot asks the count
that his rights regarding the property
be restored.
