Some Democratic Sayings

In attempting to foist upon the
country the Kansas City platform
largely repitition of the Chicago
platform of 1s96-Bryan, Hearst ct
al. do not appear to be quoting the
sayings, epigrams and prophesies
which accompanied these documents.
If these platforms are as right now
as they we're at the time of their
construction, theE so are the public
statements which accompanied
them Recall a few of these: wheat
and silver. Wheat could never rise
in price above fifty cents until silver
was rehabilitated. The same with
all farm products Moreover the
hard times of 1896 we're stated to be
as nothing compared to those which
would follow the election of Nc
Kinley. We had Mr.. Bryan's word
for it. In 1900 the tune was chang
ed little and after much search a
paramount issue was found in anti.
imperialism. Mr.. Bryan and his
gang solemnly declared through the
length and breadth of the land that
the country was on the brink of a
ruin worse than the ruin of its
industries, worse than the loss of its
trade-the loss of its liberty, its
democracy and its republicauism.
The army was to dominate and
coerce the citizen forts would be
established at close intervals
throughout the United States and
armed soldiers would patrol the land

CHAMPION DROPPED
BY MINNEAPOLIS
BREWERS TAKE LAST GAME OF
THE MILWAUKEE, SERIES.
Watkins Said to Be After a Major
Lacquer to Play First Base-Weaver
Now ON the Bag Is Playing a Fast
First-Yesterdays Game.

Milwaukee, June 4.-Mtnneapol1s
dropped the final game of the series to
Cantillion's men yesterday afternoon. The
loss was due to an inability to find Curtiss
when a hit would have meant scoring.
Yesterdays game was great improve
ment over the game of the day before. 1t
was snappy thruout and while the local
team was crippled by the absence OF
Schaefer and the spiking of Bateman by
Sullivan, the play on both sides was fast.
Milwaukee opened the proceedings in
the third when Andy Oyler made a glass;
arm throw to first to catch Curtiss, and
the pitcher reached second before the ball
could be retrieved. Slattery then came
1p and made a single, allowing Curtiss to
score In the fifth inning Leslie made a
coriking two-bagger, but grew greedy and
tried to reach third on it. Wolfe made a
long throw and the fat catcher was
tripped at third base. Had he been con-
tent to take the two bags he could have
scored, as Oyler let loose g. moe single a
minute or two later.
Slattery threw bum one In the second
and Sullivan reached second. He scored
on single by Coulter. This tied up the
SCORE, but In the Milwaukee half a double
and a. single put Milwaukee in the lead
again. The millers could not head them.
Campion was handed his release yester-
Cay by Manager Watkins. Fie was an ex-
perament and the Minneapolis manager
pays he was not fast enough for tha
team. Watkins is said to be after major
aeaguar, a man who Is now hitting oven
The 800 mark, and his addition would
mean a great deal to the team. Weaver

Excelsior, Mimi, June 4.-The bass sea-
son has opened at Lake Minnetonka, and
some remarkable catches are being re-
ported. Messrs. S. B. and H. l.. Harper
Of Cleveland. Ohio, have spent few days
there fishing for bass. Wednesday they
were out with Fri. Dennis, an old guide
for fishing parties, and they caught sixty
five fine bass, some of them weighing
three pounds and a half. These gentle
men have been continuing their fishing
this week, and have had excellent luck.
Parties of fishermen and fisher maidens
frequent the railroad and wagon bridges
across the neck of st. Alban's bay. and
meet with good luck. A man caught a
nice string Of bass the other day while
fishing from the diving board on the Ex-
celsior bathing beach, and he had nothing
more tempting for bait than pieces of sun
fish. There seem to be more fish in Lake
Minnetonka this spring than at any previ-
Gus season since the early days.
