Cleveland Versus Bryan.

Of course, it will be expected that
Mr.. Bryan will take the stump for the
republican ticket if Mr.. Cleveland
should be nominated next year. The
republicans could win without Bry an S
help on the stump, but we presume Mr..
Hanna or the manager Of the canvass,
whoever he chances to be, will not put
the Nebraska man off the track if he
wants to aid the republicans. The
outlook for the republicans seems es-
Decially bright for the canvass Of 1904,
yet the campaign leaders should be
willing to accept two-thirds major
ity in the electoral college if Mr.. Bryan,
and his friends are willing to help
them to get it. AS an assailant Of the
ex-president, the ex-presidential cam
didate would be at his best. He would
be able to attract as big audiences az

ovations in 1896 and 1900-St. Louis

tions that has prevailed since terri

Death of cIar. Wheat.

Sunday morning our people were great
ly shocked. when the sad news OF the
death of Clara Wheat was announced.
She with her mother moved to Enid. Okla,
about the 9th of September, hoping that
her health would improve. Instead. Sat-
urday morning, October 3lst, while in a
neighbor's yard. she was suddenly striek-
en- with heart failure, and in fe" NOM
ents of time her spirit was ushered into
the presence Of her Maker. But death
did not find her unprepared. About three
years ago she gave her heart to God and
accepted Christ as her Savior. She lived
a consistent and an exemplary life. Her
life in the home was model; in the school
she was a dligent student; she loved her
church. and was a regular attendant;
and as Christian. her days were full Of
good deeds. How beautiful in her that
oftentimes she visited an elderly lady,
and read the word of God to her In this
she has set all worthy example. Who
will initiate her Christian lifsp
Without dissenting voice, her church.
her teachers and school mates. and her
friends and neighbors, all speak her
praise.
