Trisv.e to the South.

In placing Judge Parker before
the national convention, Judge
NJ. W. Littleton paid this tribute
10 the South;
We appeal to the South, whose
unclouded vision and iron cour-
age saw and fought the way for
half a century; whose Jefferson
awoke the dumb defiance of de-
yelopement into voice that cried
out to the world a curse upon the
rule of kings and a blessing upon
a newborn republic; whose
Madison translated the logic OF
events and the law of progress
into the constitution of the coun-
try; whose jackson reclaimed
the lost places Of the far South
and democratized the policies OF
the nation; and whose soldiers
showed the wondering world the
finest fruits of the brain and nerve
and heart that ripen in her TEN
perate sun, and who, through all
the sons she lost, and all the sons
she saved, and all the tears she
shed amid the sOrrowful ruins of
war, and through all the patient
loyalty and labor of after years
so wrought fer human happiness
that all the world eXclaims:
"Her greatness in peace is great
or than her valor in war"

Bryan Viii Stick.
Nebraska Leader Publishes
Fpur Reasons Why He
VIII Support the
Ticket.

: In the last issue of the Com
moner, Mr.. Bryan says:
shall vote for Parker and Da-
Wis, the nominees of the demo-
cratic national convention, and
shall do so for the following
reasons:
First-Because the democratic
ticket stands for opposition to
Imperialism, while the republican
ticket stands for an imperiallstic
policy. On this question, which
was the paramount issue in 1900,
and which must remain an I'M
portant issue so long as an at
tempt is made to hold colonies
under the American flag-on this
issue the convention was unani-
nous, the platform emphatic, and
/ have no doubt that the candi-
date will carry out the platform.
Second-Mr. Roosevelt is in
jecting the race issue into Ameri-
can politics, and this issue, if it
becomes national, will make it
impossible to consider economic
questions that demand solution.
The election of the democratic
ticket will put quietus upon this
attempt and permit the race
question to work itself out with
out the bitterness which Mr..
Roosevelt's conduct has engen-
dered.
Third-Mr. Roosevelt stands
for the spirit of war. His friends
spresent him as 4 man of blood
and iron. He believes in stren-
uousness and inculcates a love of
Swar-like things. The democratic
ticket stands for peace, for reason
and arbitration rather than for
force, conquest and bluster.
Fourth-The democratic plat
form declares in favor of the re-
iduction of the standing army,
land as this plank was unanimous
iy adopted there is some reason |

st. Petersburg, Dec. 1S.-General
Stoessefs latest dispatches from Port
Arthur, published today, but as given
out, do not carry the story of the
garrison's stubborn defense beyond

least five days between the official
word of the military commander and
the unofficial story of Commander
Mizzeneo given out at Chefoo. The
dispatches have been in the hands of
Emperor Nicholas three days.
The story of the operations as Civ

most desperate character from Nov.
