lies within his power far more radi-

cause of his radicalism that he has
incurred the enmity of the merger
kings in both OF the great political
parties and because OF the position
he has assumed has the cry gone
up from certain quarters for the NOM
nation OF a "safe man." such as
Cleveland, Judge Parker, or some OF
the others who have peen mentioned
for the place OF late.
1t should not pc supposed that Bry-
an is willing or prepared to stultify
himself by yielding to the element
that has undertaken TO reorganize the
democratic party, consequently the
notice he has served must be taken
as a declaration that he intends to be
true to the principles he is advocat-
ing. To c~omplacently submit to the
wishes and intentions OF the reorgan-
izers and give his support to a candi-
date wholly opposed to everything
he has stood for would be either cow
ardice or rank dishonesty to the men
who have remained firm in their 10y
atty to him during the almost eight
years that have passed since he be-
came the leader of the party. Stead

srasies concerning free SILVER" there
are other matters, as ne las repeated
ly declared, that are before the peo-
pie which must be settled. Though
he may continue his position on ex-
pansion, Bryan recognizes that it has
been accepted as one OF the fixed and
definite institutions and policies OF
the nation, therefore he may easily
forego discussion of il and with Roose-

ideal than anyone the r~eorganizers
would have as the party's standard

Consideration of the situation will
show that the anomaly OF Bryan sup
porting Roosevelt Is against any
man the eastern wing of the demo-
cratic party would nominate is more
apparent than real. But even if he
should conclude to submit, Bryan
could not take with him the millions
who voted for him at the last cleo
ton. Some might follow him, but
not many.

Oklahoma Vacancy.

r. e. Bray, formerly of Enid. Okl.,
member of the peoples party national
committee, is now at Wayland, N. Y.
where he is editor of the Wayland
Register. In personal letter to The
Independent Mr.. Bray says he is.run-
ming a neutral paper, but that person
ally, outside of the office, he is a
"howling Bryan democrat and don't
care a. continental who knows it." He
says that there is no populist organiza-
tion in New York state, and believes
the contest in the Empire State dem
ocracy will be between Hill and
Hearst.
Mr.. Bray's removal to New York
creates a vacancy in the Oklahoma
quota of national committeeman. Ar
rangements should be made to fill this
at the Denver meeting.

Consumption is a human
weed hourshing best in weak
lungs. Like other weeds it's
easily destroyed while young
when old, sometimes inn
possible.
Strengthen the lungs as you
would weak land and the
weeds will disappear.
The best lung fertilizer is
SCOTS Emulsion. Salt pork
IS good too, but it is very hard
TO digest.
The time to treat consump-
ton is when you begin trying
to hide it from yourself.
Others see it, you won't.
Don't wait until you can't
deceive yourself any longer.
Begin with the first thought
to take SCOTS Emulsion. If
it isn't really consumption so
much the better; you will soon
forget it and be better for the
treatment. If it is consump-
ton you can't expect to be
cured at once, but if you will
begin in time and will be
rigidly regular in your treat
ment you will win.
SCOTS Emulsion, fresh ali,
rest all you can, eat all you
can, that's the treatment and
that's the best treatment.

TO SETTLERS.
A Strip of Land Strswn with Skele-
tons of Prospeetors.

A Strip Of Land Strewn with Sksle-
toms Of Prospeetors.
One June 10, 1908, 1000, O00
acres of land in California were
thrown open to entry. This may
be taken up either under the des-
ert land act or as homesteads in
6O-acre tracts. The strip stretch
es from Mojave to the Colorado
river.
We wish to warn all intending
settlers to let this land alone, says
the San Francisco ArgOnaut.
There is a good deal of talk about
making the desert blossom as
the rose" Some deserts blossom,
but not this one. Nobody will
ever do more for this desert than
Mother Nature has done. The
only blooming that nature has
brought about there is that its
freckled bosom blossoms with
large alkali pustules, or pimples,
punctuated with sagebrush and
cactus. This sums up the fora of
the new Promised Land. The
fauna includes jack rabbits,
horned toads, lizards, ella mon
sters and venOmOus snakes. The
soil is coarse sand and gravel, and
on top of the coarse gravel there
is a fine alkali powder which,
when the wind blows-and the
wind blows often-sweeps over
the scorching and barren land like
the dreaded sandstorms of the
Sahara, which, by the way, they
much resemble. Even far to the
southwest, across the lofty noun
tar ranges, these desert sand.
storms sometimes sweep, reach
ing the favored jewellers in South
ern California, in the midst Of
their orange groves. Even this
distant touch of the desert winds
causes trees to wither, grass to
scorch and men and animals to
suffer keenly. Over this dreadful
desert the sun moves like a ball of
fire across a sky of brass. Rarely
does a cloud break the intensity of
its pitiless rays.
Those credulous persons who
may believe that this is the kind of
desert which, by irrigation, may
be turned into a garden are
doomed to disappointment. There
no water on this desert strip.
The waters of the Colorado NAV
be led to the lands of the Yuma
desert, but that is far lower in
level than are these. Much of this
Moiave strip is at an elevation of
two or three thousand feet, end
ing in igneous rock and producing
nothing but profanity.
The last hope for the settler
on this barren land would be the
discovery of precious metals.
They may exist there. We do not
say they cannot be found. But we
know that the land has been pros
by experienced miners for
half a century. If tenderfoot
can find a gold mine where an old
California miner fails, he is a
smart tenderfoot. But we doubt
lis success.
W. warn all eastern people not

we'll meaning, representations

ATLANTIC CITY, Sept 23.-At TO-

heWspapermen from the room because the
ministers were about to talk of things
mat were OF a private nature to the sect
opposition was made to this by Soma Of
the delegates present and the reporters
remained. Rev. d. f. Dole of Boston pre-
sided, and when the debate grew quite
personal Rev. Joseph Mail of Philadelphia
moved that the doors be closed and an ex-
ecutive session held.
Rev. Mr.. Dole had offered a rasoI,,+;o,,
commencing the ministers for the excel
lent discharge of their duties. when Rev
Richard Boynton, afyoung minister of St
Paul, arose and in a spirited speech asked
for information as to just what Unitarian
theology was. He said he had tried TO
discover 1t, but had failed, and he chaI-
lenged any minister present to define If
Rev. Mr.. Grant, formerly of Newburg
N. Y, explained that Unitarian ministers
have a theology or they have no right TO
the pulpit. He said the foundation stone
of Unitarianism is that man is to God as
child is to a father; that with this as a
basis ideals of manhood could be realized
The meeting resumed a calm attitude
after this and report by Dr. Edward

not to change the report which will be
