made from the Chicago home of the
Letters, early in the present month

the elephants might not take fancy

the fancy might possess them. Nor
did il lend peace TO the anxiety of the
moment to realize that one elephant,
much less a herd, is only now and
again providentially stopped in his

one full of trouble on occasion.

"That's all right, Mr.. Bryan" said
a well-knOwn Democrat of this county
after reading the famous Nebraskan's
letter, "that's all right, for you. But
/ don't propose to follow you on that
l propose to vote for Roosevelt,
this year." Two or three other
Democrats, standing by, made the
same declaration. Their votes will
be needed and they are welcome.
The real issue is peculiar one, this
year. The common people want
Roosevelt. Roosevelt stands for the
whole people. But there is very
powerful element, even in his own
party, that will do nothing for him,
and secretly opposes him. There will
be treachery and underground in
trigue. Great sums of money will be
used to defeat him, because he stands
in the way of unlawful corporations
and unlimited greed. The issue is no
longer the gold standard. The lines
have changed. The issue this year is
Roosevelt. Can the common people
elect him?

Received Sad Intelligence,

Mrs. Fl. A. Herschleb received the
sad intelligence last week from He's
peler, Canada, that her brother-in-law,
ii, A. KribS met with an accident
last Monday that proved fatal to him.
Mr.. Kribs was an engineer in the
electric light plant of the Forbes
Wooden mill. The accident which
caused his death occurred while fixing
a steam pipe which burst, the escap-
ing steam scalding him from head to
foot so severely that he died Thursday
from his injuries. The funeral took
place Saturday. He is survived by
his wife and two adopted children,
parents, six sisters and three brothers.
Mr.. Kribs is quite well known here
having made many staunch friends in
Grand Rapids during his several
visits to the city few years ago. He
will be remembered as having spent
the winter of 1900 with the family of
H. A. HerSchleb. His wife who is a
sister of Mrs. Herschleb also made an
extended visit at that time. Mr..
Kribs was man of sterling qualities
whom it was pleasure to meet. His
friends and acquaintance in this city
will be sorry to read of his untimely
death. The most heartfelt sympathies
are extended by friends to the sorrow
ing relatives.

Discussed with Democratic Plat
form.

The financial straddle of the Demo
cratic party. the candidate sustaining
the gold standard and the party in
national convention refusing action
on the subject, is not promoting the
harmony expected. The Democratic
state chairman of Iowa and Michigan
have each, it is reported, refused to
act further for the party.
Hon. Oscar Strauss, minister to
Turkey, under Cleveland, sent the
following telegram to Roosevelt last
Monday.
"My Dear Mr.. President:-Though

admiration for your fearless devotion
