In the last issue of the Commoner
Hon. W. j. Bryan had an editoria'
fayoring the election of postmasters oy
the people. The Herald seconds the
motion. 1t would give the pupilc
better service; it would stop large
amount of graft it would prevent
partisan like Roosevelt imposing 90,
iectionable characters upon cultured
and business communities, and 1t
would relieve a real statesman fresi
dent of a vast deal of vexation, WORK
and worry, and give him more time
for more important things. OF course
the Republicans would never MAKE
such change, but if the Democrats
get in we hope they will.

"They reviewed all the law and stated
the reasons for the law against Sabbath
breaking. They said that following one g
ordinary business on Sunday was sim
moral and Of pernicious effect; that since
our law regarded christianity as part OF
the law OF the land, it respects and pro-
tects its institutions and assumes to ragu-
late the public morals and decency Of the
community that one Of the purposes OF
the common law is to cherish the public
morals;' that the practice Of doing ones
ordinary business on Sunday has ten
dency to corrupt public morals, and the
example is pernicious and contrary to
law, and the we'll being and good order
of society
"Where can you find any words
stronger than those OF our own Supreme

Sabbath breakers. Disregard OF the

prove this, by the men !. who do the

ANY man who makes any claim to
Christianity or who has any regard for
the morals of his children, or of his
neighbours children, ought to be
ashamed to run his business en- Sun
day, or to hold stock in or accept
dividends from any corporation that
makes business of making money on
Sunday. Every officer, director and
stakeholder in corporations who plans
for, connives at, OF assists in carry
ing on their business on Sunday for
profit, is just as bad in the eye of God s
law and our statute laws as the Sun
day tippler. They are equally cor
ruptionists, breeders of vice, de-
bauchers of public morality.

Fourth of July Meet
 ing Changes Program

Last night the general committee of she Fourth of July celebration met and made final aportionment of the money. It was decided to withdraw the prize for the free for all upper hole drilling match, and aportion the money for a free for all down-hoie match. The finance committee w,ll raise more money today. which will be used to make the prize for this match much larger and induce profes- sional drillers to compete.
 There will be a meeting tonight of the general committee to hear the fin al report of the finance committee and to name the prize for the free for all down-hole.
 Every member of all the committees is expected to be on hand at 7:30 to- night. The tug-of-war committee will report tonight on what they have done.

 There is not the slightest doubt but what if the real issues of the country were placed before the people. just the plain telling them of the circumstances which surround them, by adopting conservative and straight forward platform, and placing on 1t candidate in whom the people of the country would have confidence. that the victo- " over the Rough Rider President and all h.s spectacular performances would be of the most overwhelming character.
 It is not unlikely that there will be at St. Louis a conglomerate mass of personalities and bickerings. Out of it all there are several gentlemen who would grace the head of the Democrat. ic tiGkeH There is Parker and Nc clellsp.. and oiney. and Gray and Folk. Any one of these gentlemen would make a most available candi- date. would excite the favorable con sideration of the business men of the country, and the people who desire to see the American nation in the hands of safe man. one in whom and upon
 whom they could rely for conserva
 tive and safe administration of the government as directed by Congress and not prove to be usurper Of the powers of the executive. legislative and judicial branches of the people Of the United States. taken from those in whom they vested those rights sepa- rately and distinctively. With the chances of victory in sight. will the Democracy, at their National Conven- ton. seize that opportunity that would take them into executive power?

There are two things that happen with the people of Quality Hill as reg ularly as the weeks roll around, and that is becoming an intolerable nui- sance. These are-t absence of wa ter for from five to ten days each month. and the certainty of bill be- ing presented for full months water rent. How would it do for the com pany to send a bucket brigade up there and let them supply the families residing there as the families them selves have to do. IL is time that something was being done about furn- ishing the water to the people from whom they collect water rents. The company has no right to collect mon ey for which they give no returns. aud the renters should combine, individ- ually, collectively or any other way, and refuse to pay the bills when pre- scented, without proper credit being gwen for the time in which no water was supplied. Patience sometimes ceases to be virtue. There are none of the gentlemen connected with the Water Company who would accept shipment or delivery of merchandise unless the goods were there for what the invoice called. and the water is due the people who pay for it. Three days this week water has been prom ised for Quality Hill, and with the same regularity none has beer forth coming.

The Review is delivered by carriers in the following towns:
THE COMING
 ST. LOUIS CONVENTION.

The Republican National conven- ton has been held. and the nomina- tons. That of the Democratic organ ization will now follow within the next ten days ID many ways Judge Park CT is most logical candidate. He is in nearly every attribute the very op- posite of Theodore Roosevelt. The principal issue on the Republican side during the coming campaign will be Roosevelt himself All that Roosevelt is. Judge Parker is not. and all that Judge Parker is not, Theodore Roose- welt is. and this will account in large degree for the opposition of those Democrats who would rather lose the next battle on populistic grounds and lines. than win on those of true Dem ocratic lines. They are opposed to Judge Parker. not simply because he is sound, conservative and safe man, but because his nomination would give every assurance of victory at the polls.
 The evidences of the past indicate clearly that many Democrats through ont the country do not seem 70 want victory. They prefer chaos, Demo cratic breakup, and then to follow this. out and out socialism. Many of these are honest in their belief. but all of them are impractical, visionary and drawing upon their imaginations.
 The thoughtful and patriotic among the people of the United States see before them the dangers which beset the nation in allowing things to re main at loose ends longer; they see clearly through the clever but unscrup- ulous demagogy of the President; they realize fully that the Republican party is in the hands of the trusts, and that the office of President has descended largely into brokerage ofiice-an of. flee brokerage ofice-and they can discern imperialism pure and simple, tending in the profligacy of the admin istration at Washington. and seeing these things, they would, if they could. arrest this tendency in general, and bring back the nation to the posi- tion in which it was placed by the fathers and the original makers of the government.
 It is the history of all nations that nc party may be safely entrusted to continue or build up unlimited power UHrestrained and unlimited powe, breeds arrogancy in oficialdom. leads 10 corruption in office, and later to ab- so,ute disdain of the people them selves from which should come all power. Surely no one will gainsay that if the Republicans are allowed to go unchecked they will eventually and soon bring about evils as great as ever were those which preceded the Civil War.
 It is in these things that the Democ- Tacy of their country have their oppor- tunity It requires only the appeal 10 the sober thinking. sober minded people of the country against Roose- welt and everything tha, is Roosevelt ian. against the syndicates and against the trnsts. which is steadily eating up
