The surprisingly light vote cast
for Judge Parker for president is a
complete vindication of Hon. w. I.
Bryan's fight in the St. Louis con-
vention. The adoption of the
Bryan and western idea and the
nomination of Hearst or some other
radical and progressive democrat
might not have resulted in a demo-
cratic victory but it certainly
would not have resulted in rout.
Mr.. Parker proved much weaker
in his own territory than Mr.. Bryan.
He did not carry a state north, east
or west and lost two of the solid
south. This should serve as an
-eye-opener to the south, and if the
democrats of the country are wise
they will lose no time in retracing
their steps and regaining their lost
ground. The only hope for de-
mocracy is to take bold stand for
radical reform.

IT is singular fact that the re-
publican candidates for whom the
ring organ of Barber county labor
ed the hardest went down to de-
feat and the democrats whom it
abused the most were overwhelm-
ingly elected in the face of large
normal republican majority. Re-
publican candidates might do
much better if they could persuade
the organ to remain neutral.

The highest man on the pro-
Inhibition ticket in Barber county
this year was Glover NJ. Martin of
this city, candidate for attorney
general. He received 63 votes.
Two years ago their candidate for
governor received 81 votes. in Bar
Der county. Barber county has a
great many people who talk pro-
hibition but on election day its
different.

THERE were some republicans in
Barber county who would like to
have seen w. M. Ferguson, the

who was one of the Democrat
candidates for railroad commits

to voting nearly all of them took
the ticket straight and Ferguson
lost the county to the tune of So.

MADE AN HONORABLE FIGHT.

Judge Dale's defeat is not reflection
upon the fusion candidate for governor,
nor the result of a mistake on the part
of the two minority parties in Kansas
in selecting him as their standard
bearer. 1t was due principally to the
handicap Of being pitted against
President Roosevelt, for 1t was solely
on the strength of the republican ma
tional ticket that the republican leaders
in Kansas expected to win. They
banked heavily on ROosevelt's popular
ity and won. Had the election come in
an off year, Judge Dale would have
swept tie state.
AS It was, he made splendid show
ing cutting down republican ma jorities
in many counties. The vote given him
was proof of his fitness and the stand
ing which he has in Kansas, though his
campaign was the first occasion that
took him extensively over the state on
political mission.
The democrats are not dlsheartened
by the defeat of their standard bearer.
Tney have no idea of setting him aside,
for he IS today the recognized leader of
democracy in Kansas. The opinion,
has been expressed repeatedly that no
man who could have been selected by
the party as its candidate for governor
could have made as good showing.
Judge Dale can look back on the
strenuous days of the campalgn-with
the feeling that he has lost nothing in
the esteem Of his friends but that, on
the contrary, he has made new friends
by the thousands, who may have occa-
sion to call upon him in the future as
their choice for high honors, should the
occasion offer.
Honorable defeat is not to the dis
credit of any man. and even the oppo
sitiOn will acknowledge that the cam
paign made by Judge Dale was honor
able In every respect. It is disappoint
ing to lose after hard fight, but Judge
Dale may be assured that his own
feelings are not as keenly affected as
those of his many Wichita friends and
admirers. It is here that he is best
known and, therefore, best liked. If
depth of friendship and wealth of
friends and admirers go for anything,
the campaign has not been in vain. 1t
can be truly said that Judge Dale not
only won new friends in all parts of the
state, but that those who already knew
him and appreciated his good qualities,
| now hold him in greater esteem.
He is IN position to contemplate his
own defeat with calmness and salts
faction, realizing that he took up the
issues In response to his perty's call
and through no desire of his own. It
was case of the Office seeking the man
and that the result was not what his
friends had hoped, was no fault of the
candidate, but trick of fate that
brought Judge Dale in opposition to a
national candidate whose popularity
was unprecedented. Edward Hoch un-
doubleday owes his election to the fact
that this was presidential year. A
campaign strictly on the issues that
were at stake this year in Kansas
would have resulted differently

THE prohibition and socialist
parties in Barber county did not
cut much figure. AS usual, they

There are sincere men in both

that their chosen leaders in county

with republican manipulators.

NOTWITHSTANDING Roosevelt's
unparalleled majority in Kansas,
his total vote is not much greater
than McKinley's in 1900. The
opposition simply scattered their
votes among the other candidates
and many of them did not vote at
all. Democracy must return to
radicalism if it wants to be a
power.
