OUR WHITE PLUMED KNIGHT
The washington Post and several
other eastern dailies begin to see what
The Independent has been telling It's
readers for two or three years. The
Post declares that the outcome OF this
campaign must be the formation OF a
great radical party made UP OF all the
recent reform parties, and it adds that
either Watson or Bryan will be the
leader OF that party. How is 1t pos
sible that Bryan should be the leader!
BRYAN has shown such devotion TO the
democratic party, it is hard to conceive
OF anything that could drive him out
of it. For the next four years the Char-
acter of the democratic party has been
fixed and can not be changed until an
other national convention is held. II
the Post thinks that Watson and the
populists are going to wait that long TO
see whether Bryan is going to reform
himself for he is supporting a gold
standard Wall street platform and can
.didate at present and must refoi m him.
self as well as his party before he can
take the lead in any reform movement.
it is greatly mistaken. The fact is
that Bryan resigned the leadership OF
the reform forces when he took serv-
ice under Parker and Belmont and
the people chose Tom Watson to MI
the place. Watson has already Deen
commissioned as the white plumed
knight Of reform and he is not the sort
of a knight that will ever resign and
take service in the ranks of the enemy.
The Independent bid Bryan an anec-
tionate "good bye as soon as nc an

EAATERN LUNACY
The National Bankers association at
it's meeting in New York HAD a good
deal to say about the lunacy OF the
west and it's wild financial ideas. Those
ideas have built up commercial sit
uation that has resulted in . happy,
prosperous and law-abidin6 rcoEie,
while the product OF Wall street has
been a lot of millionaires with every
charitable institution crowded TO the
doors while hundreds are star wing on
the streets. Western lunacy has proved
far better than Wall street wisdom.
The west today is financial Gibraltar,
while the east is rotten old log fort,
that the first heavy wind may blow
over The difference in the situation is
this: Down there all their wealth con-
sists of pieces Of printed paper Out
here our wealth consists of cattle on
a thousand plains and soil that yields
abundant crops of corn and wheat &Id
fruit. We have the thing Itself and
they have only paper representatives OF
it, 1t pays a great deal better to IN
vest iii western lunacy than in Wall
street wisdom.

MR.. MARCUS A. HANNA;

The death of Mr.. Hanna which cast
a gloom over the nation, has closed a
busy and remarkable career. Mr..
Hanna will now be classed as a great
statesman, especially so by those of bis
own party who were dreading his pc
litical movements, and who were ready
to have defeated him in any of bis
aspirations, These will bewail loudett
his demise. But to his close and init
mate friends his loss will be almost
irremediabie. They We're constantly
looking to him for guidance and rely
lag on his sagacity. He was not a
statesman. He may have had many
elements Of the statesman, but he came
on the arena too late In life to be call
ed by that high sounding name, a
name which means great deal. He
was, however, a genius. He succeeded
in conducting to successful issue the
campaign of 1896, which would have
been hopelessly lost by weaker man.
Mr.. Hanna, we do not think. ever had
a nice sense of right and wrong. He
would not do thing himself, but he
would furnish the money to do thing
which he knew was loathful, if not
illegal When be gathered the great
campaign fund of 1886. he knew that
when be sowed the money 1t was not
falling in stony ground, or where it had
not much depth of root. He did not,
of course, see to its application always,
but before persons could get it they
must have disclosed to him the pur-
poses for which it was to DO used, and
thus he was brought into close touch
with the dark side of politics, and
whilst be might not, as we say, have
done the things himself that were done
be furnished the other fellow the
means to carry out the plot. But
withall there was much real good in
Mr.. Hanna, no man who did SO much
as be and who had about him so many
influential friends but must have done
much good. So we will bury his faults
with him, and remember only his vir.
tues. Certainly the country has lost a
great man, and the Republican party
It's greatest man. When shall we see
his like again?

he wanted. He located the owner, and
asked the price. "One hundred dol

the animal over and trying her speed,
he concluded it was a good trade, and
at once wrote out check for the
amount. The next day he found
that his mare was blind, but this did

her general appearance. He drove the

After looking the animal over, and

money and took the mare. When the

thing she did was to run against a

Death Of Senator Hanna.

Marcus AlonZo. Hanna, United States
Senator from Ohio. chairman Of the re
publican national committee, and one
of the most potent figures of his day 10
political life, died at $40 O'Clock
Monday evening in his.partment at the
Arlington Hotel in Washington In the
sixty-seventh year of his age. The
end was devoid of pain. OF his last
day Of life Senator Hanna had little, if
any, knowledge. He lay in apparent
Inconsistencies and about his bed the
family waited in sorrow for the end.
For more than twelve hours there was
not q moment when death did not seem
to be Immediately at hand, but his
body, wrecked and weakened as it was
by the raging fever, resisted dissolu-
tion with a tenacity that astonished
the medical men IN attendance. The
announcement, although anticipated
by numerous bulletins showing deaths
approach, was received with intense
feeling throughout the city and cast
general gloom in official circles.
After meeting of the family and
immediate friends of Senator Hanna,
it was announced that the remains
would.le Washington for Ohio at
o'clock Wednesday evening. They az
rived at the Senator's old home at II
o'clock Thursday morning. Aspecial
train furnished by the Pennsylvania
Railroad was used. 1t was met at
Salem, Ohio, by Governor Herrick and
staff. On Thursday the body lay in
state at the Chamber of Commerce.
Today at p. m. the funeral services
were held in st. Paul's church, Bishop
Leonard presiding. President Roose.

funeral, but he was represented by

what he did unwittingly, and the dis.
