Those who ever supposed for {
minute that William Jennino.
Bryan had ever lost any of that
magnetism, that wonderful voice
and gift of speech, which made the
Chicago convention in 1896 one OF
the memorable events of this gen.
Grafton soon had this idea dispelled
if they attended the St. Louis con.
ventlon last week. The leader of
the silver movement has suffered
defeat, but the uses of adversely
have given him strength and the
star of his genius is even brighter
to- day than it ever was. The in
fuence of this man over that vast
assemblage, such as gathered in
St. Louis, is absolutely astound-
ing. 1t is wonderful. No man
has a true conception of the orator
unless he has heard him under
conditions of this kind. Even at
his very appearance men and wo-
men with one voice are simply
transformed into a shouting mass,
and with only a wave of his hand
there is Immediately perfect
silence. There was not another
man in that entire audience of fif-
teen thousand people last Friday
night in the coliseum at st. Louis
who could command attention.
There was not another who could
even be heard; and it would be
unreasonable to suppose that one
of them could control or quiet one
of those monster demonstrations.
Bryan was the only man who could
do this. One of the secrets of the
mans wonderful power is doubt
less his fearless courage and un-
swerving honesty. His aphorisms
are often criticised as vague and
specious, but his eloquence never
loses its magic. Bryan is without
doubt the greatest orator on the
face of the earth. He is without
parallel. The idea advanced by
some newspapers that these dem
were the work of
crowd of Missouri admirers is to a
man who saw the convention POSI-
lively absurd. At the all.night
session which began Friday night
there were not less than fifteen
thousand people IN the coliseum.
The seating capacity was between
eleven and twelve thousand and
The doorkeepers gave way to those
desiring admittance until every
loot of standing room was taken.
On Saturday night this crowd was
reduced to half or less. Were all
hose who left Missouri people?
The Bryan enthusiasm was dimin-
shed only in the size of the crowd,
,ut those who remained may have,
perhaps, been mostly Missourians.
t is more reasonable to suppose
hat those who had left were from
,ther States. But there is no
mistake of the mans eloquence
md magnetism.

1t looks like a great many of
the big Democratic daily journals,
who think politics were invented
for their special benefit, have
more genuine satisfaction in show
ing their teeth than they do in
writing sensibly on occasions of all
occasions when they should not
lose their heads. They have done
all that a combined press could do
in the past week to injure the
ticket--and all this because the
platform makers did not insert
therein a dead plank. The inser-
ton of gold plank, or silver
plank, or monetary plank of any
kind in the platform at this time
would have been wholly superfu-
Gus. That question has been con-
coded to be settled for long time.
That being true what on earth is
there to be gained by declaration
for the gold standard. Might as
well resolve that we would support
the constitution-iust about as
much sense in one as the other.
All this TRADE about the platform
is nothing more than the vamping
of some darn fools who have no
other motive in view than to shake
the life out of Billy Bryan. These
are the reorganizers, the conserva-
tives, you know, who wanted to
bring all factions together. Gentle
men, leave it to disinterested
party and ask who has shown the
more liberal or conservative spirit
Bryan or those who are making
all this fuss. Bryan gave up his
silver issue and on the other hand
Hill surrendered his gold declara-
tons. They met on a common
ground after eighteen hours de-
bate. Did they do rightg We
have the gold standard and it has
not been assailed. Is anybody |
hurtl If these GROWERS had been
present and witnessed TO the pro-
ceedings of the convention there
would not have been all this rant
about the silence of the platform
on the money question. They |
would have seen what should have
been heralded as the greatest
meeting of Democrats ever held.
They would have been led to feel
the influence of the magnanimity
and liberality which was exhibited
in the respect Democrats held for
each others feelings and opinions.
Is it to be supposed for a minute
that Democrats could have united
some concessions9 And
how could these concessions dam
age the party when no principle
had been assailed or issue omitted?
1t looks to us rather like one of
The greatest victories that could
have evolved out of the chaos Of a
badly disrupted party. 1t appears
to us that one of Americas great
sst and best citizens has been cho-
sen to carry the standard of that
party. The signs of approaching
hosts gathering together in the
bonds of union are vitality signif-
,ant. The overthrow Of the mill
tary President, or the hero of
norseplay, is no longer one of

The herald-advance. (Milbank, S.D.) 1890-1922, 1904-07-08

The dairy business is a sort of sheet
anchor for the farmer, says II. r.
Wright. He depends upon it il times
Of trouble and hard times. He knows
that the product of his dairy is a sort
Of net profit to him except for the add
ed labor, and the man who is raising
stock knows that he will not raise any
less number of calves if he milks the
that he will raise a larger number of
hogs than he otherwise could do. He
knows that If he milks his cows and
his %neighbor does not milk his the
neighbor will have just so much less
money. The banker and money lender
knows this as we'll, and in every dairy
section of the country times are al
ways better than IN other sections.
Money is easier to get, land values are
higher, the people are in general more
prosperous, and agricultural conditions
are better.
This is n of the reasons why Iowa
and the states Immediately surround
ing her are the w%ealthiest agricultural
states Of the Union. The farm where
dairying is carried on, the county, the
state or the section where butter and
cheese are made is the most certainly
successful and prosperous part of the
country.
We have many crops, many products
Of the farm, but corn is king in Amer
lea and the dairy cow is queen. and
we are all their subjects, whether we
will or no.
An Iowa Winner.
Mr.. C. D. Elder won first in butter at
the recent Iowa state fair with a score
