Are There Two Bryans?

Mr.. Bryan this week begins
a series of speeches in Missouri
The machine has induced Bryan
to come to this state to help the
democratic party out of a bad
hole. He received over $50, 00O
votes in Missouri, all enthusias-
tic silver men. These same vo-
ters will now be eloquently re-
quested to transfer their shouts
to Parker, Belmont, Hill and the
goldbug telegram. We call at.
tention to page 427 of Mr.. Bry-
ans book. 1.-The First Battle, i"
where the following passage oc-
ours: l believe that the gold
standard is a conspiracy against
the human race. l would no
more join the ranks of those who
propose to fasten it upon the
American people than 1 would
enlist in. an army which was
marching to attack my home and
destroy my family" 'Tis deeply
sworn; but is it the same Bryan
who has come to advise Missouri
democrats on their duty this
year?
1t was William Jennings Bry-
an of Nebraska who said in his
paper after the nomination of
Parker for President: Il have
nothing to take back; l have
nothing to withdraw of the
things l said against the methods
pursued to advance Parker's can
didacy. 1t was a plain and de-
liberate attempt to deceive the
party. The New York platform
was vague, aud purposely so, be-
cause the advocates of Judge
Parker were trying to secure
votes from among the people
who would have opposed his
views had they known them.
The nomination was secured,
therefore, by crooked and indie
fensible methods. It's presum-
ed that the same Mr.. Bryan will
make speeches to democratic
in Missouri this week. |
Any divergence from the above
quotations would indicate that
the Bryan who has come to this |
state to point out to its citizens
the best path to pursue is a coun-
terfeit and not the original Will

japanese Military Superiority.

The battle of Lao Yang viii
strike the last blow at the hardy
fiction that still survives in some
quarters to the effect that, de-
spite their earlier reverses dur.
ing the war, the Russians never.
theless are the superiors of the
japanese in fighting ability.
Heretofore the friends of the
Russians have been able to say
that their defeats were due either
to inferiority of numbers or to
unfavorable location, as, for IN.
tance, in places in which the
Russian artillery could pot be
used, or to the fact tha Russian
strategy involved continual re-
tirement in order to draw the
Japanese where the Russians
wanted them.
With the battle of Lao Yang
all these apologies for defeat dis.
appear. The opposing armies
were somewhere near equal in
size. If the Japanese were more
numerous. the ratio was appar-
emily not more than five to four
or at the most four to three,
Then the Russians occupied the
position which all along they
have been claiming as the one in
which they most earnestly wish
ed the great battle to be fought.
1t was a position in which they
had been able to construct defen.
sive works to their hearts desire
and in which their artillery could
be used to the greatest advant-
age. 1t was the position which
by all considerations of strategy
must be held, if central Man
churia was to be seriously fought
for at all.
The battle came, and the Rus
slams are completely whipped.
The Japanese drove them out of
their intrenchments and surpass-
ed them in tactics. Japanese
officer and Japanese man alike
showed themselves superior to
Russian officer and Russian
man. Record Herald,

A Triumph of Peace.

A note worthy banquet has
just been given in the fair north
west. The table was set across
the new boundary line between
British and American territory,
and those present were the
boundary commissioners, the lad
les of their party and the officers
of Canadian steamer. Thus
two great nations were repre-
sented in undisturbed friendship
after an appeal to reason instead
of force. If. they had followed
the way that.has been so fashion
able in the past, thousands of
lives would have been sacrificed
and millions of money squander-
ed.

Hoosier Hospitality.

An article on the Worlds fair
sent out from St. Louis says: In.
diana has made a great reputa-
tion here for hospitality. At no
other place on the grounds are
callers more appreciated than at
the Indiana bull ling. And the
doors are closed to none. The
Hoosier, of course, is a preferred
visitor, but the Buckeye, the
Sucker, the aawkeye and the
Badger are also welcome. 1t is
encouraging to know that there
is no illiteracy in Indiana. The
proof of this lies in the fact that
every Hoosier that has thus far
visited the fair has signed his
name on the register at the Ind
lana building.

Divorce and Remarriase.


An Indiana marriage reported
IN The Star yesterday is said tc
have occurred a few hours after
the bridegroom had been grant.
ed divorce from his first wife,
to whom he was compelled to
pay large alimony. The newly
welded pair is described as be-
longing in the best society.
This instance is mentioned
here only because it is the latest
in print. Cases of the kind are
to be found in almost anv issue
of any paper and go far to ex-
plain the prejudice against di-
vorce entertained by a large por-
ton of the public. For, though
the percentage of divorce suits
is said to be increasing, the fact
remains that the great majority
of people look upon them with
disfavor and upon those who ap-
ply for them with suspicion and
doubt.
They might possibly have
sympathy with a woman who
seeks legal separation because
her husband is cruel or because
he is untrue to her, or with a
man who complains that his wife
does not make home happy; but
when the woman thus set free
turns around and marries anoth
er man before the ink on her di-
vorce decree is dry, and the man
has another wife before twenty
four hours, then the observers
draw inevitable conclusions and
are digusted with the divorce sys-
tenn.
For, to marry again immediat-
ly means that the preliminary
courtship must have been carried
on while one or the other of the
newly-married pair, and perhaps
both, were bound by solemn
pledge and she laws of man and
God to others. Even if these
others were uncongenial their
obligations we're not released.
1t may be "oldfashioned morali-
ty." but it is also the everyday
modern sense OF honesty and de-
cency which revolts at this sort
of things.-Indianapolis Star.

A certain weIl-to-do farmer of
North Walnut township belongs
to the last mentioned class of
honest folks. His name is Jones
Grant and the republicans of
Marshall county are proud to
say that he is their candidate for
treasurer.
Jones Grant was born in Ohio
in 1843, and his father moved to
Marshall county in 1852. When
Jones Grant was sixteen years
old both his parents died, leav-
ing him to ''paddle his own Ca
noe." He padded it.
When Capt. Amasa Johnson
formed his company of soldiers
from Marshall county, young
Grant was one of the number.
For three years he marched with
the celebrated Fighting Ninth"
of Indiana, also, called the
Bloody Ninth" Three times
he was wounded in battle, once
at Shiloh, again in a skerIuish at
Woodbury. after the battle of

Recovering, he joined the army
and took part in the Atlanta
campaign. After the fall of At
lanta. his time having expired,
Mr.. Grant came nome, married
and settled on the farm Eve miles
northeast of Argos where he has
lived ever since.
Capt. johnson said of him,
"Jones Grant was the best soldi-
er l ever knew"
Mr.. Grant is a member of the
G. A. r. He is also a member
and trustee of the Methodist
church and has been an active
worker in church and Sunday |
school for thirty years. He is
widely known for his upright |
dealings with all men.
When the people vote for a |
man to have charge of public
funds they want to know first of
all that he has been thoroughly
honest in all bis private business.
Mr.. Grant has that kind of rec
ord and has dealt with men
enough to know human nature.
He stands on the promise that he
will tul n into the peoples treas

by public monies placed in bank.
This interest amounts to about |
$1,000 yearly and it is customary
in most counties for treasurers
to put this money into their own
pockets in addition to their sala-
ries.

voters of Marshall county for the
important office of treasurer.
He is worthy of the support of
every man in Marshall county
and we believe that voters with
out regard to party will see that
it is to their interest to have at
this time an honest capable man
in the treasurer's office who is
not bound to the dominant party
and they will elect Jones Grant
by a rousing majority.

DANGER TO UNION LABOR
Employers In Revolt Against
The Whole System.

There are some things tha
seem to indicate that the labor
unions in Chicago have gone
much too far in the assertion oi
their supposed rights, and that
in so doing they have antagoniz
ed. not simply the employe rs,
but other workingmen, and even
the members of the unions them.
selves. Men who are dependent
for a living on the work of their
hands can not forever stand the
idleness that is forced on them
by. the officers and leaders of the
unions. So we are not surprised
to hear that, with the practical
collapse of the butchers strike,
employers should be taking steps
to break forever the power of the
unions. In a Chicago dispatch
to the Cincinnati Enquirer of to-
day it is said that wholesale
dealers in Chicago who are en-
ployers of labor are about to
take advantage 'sof the situation
to wrest the city from its posi-
tion as the stronghold of organ
lied labor in America" 1t is said
that this idea is back of the shut
ting down of certain great plants.
There has been great reduction,
in the working force at Pullman,
and their are rumOrs of COM
plete shutdown. There are
said to be more men applying for
work in Chicago than there are
jobs. The men working for the
international Harvester Com
pany are looking for shutdown
aud this same fear is reported to
be felt by the men in other large
establishments,
More significant yet is the fact
that sin thousands of Chicago
concerns placards are being plac-
ed setting forth that in hiring
help preference will be given to
those registered at the Chicago
Employers Association Employ
ment Bureau" In the present
condition of the labor market in
Chicago men will be very likely
to take advantage Of this prefer
ence, In a word, the employers
have started campaign for the
protection of themselves against
senseless and frivolous strikes.
and the intolerable exactions i'm
posed by the Chicago unions.
We think that if the labor lead
ers are wise they will take note
of these things. For they are
certainly ominous. Chicago has
suffered severely from strikes
and labor disturbances. We do
not believe that any man with
the capital to invest in produc-
tive industry would invest it in
Chicago under present conditions.
Thus the industrial growth of the
city has been seriously interfer-
ed with, to the great loss of Ia
Dor as we'll as of capital. Ir |
seeking to grasp everything, and
to control everything, the unions
have lessoned the opportunity
for employment. And now en-
ployers are in revolt against the
whole union theory. It is for
the workingmen to say whether
this revolt shall become formid.
able. If the unions cannot be
from their abuses-as
We believe they ean-both will
ultimately have to go. And in
such a fight, which. we hope
