The greatest exhibition of man
hood and good sense ever witnessed
in politics, was the course and con.
duct of William J. Bryan in the late
National Democratic Convention.
He vas 4fhIy the greatest figure
there, among 50 many eminent
leaders Of the party and has not
lost his influence by any manner of
means. He fought the gold plank
out Of the platform, in spite of the
candidate being a gold standard
man and stayed right with the
leaders and committees, for fifty
hours, with but thirty minutes sleep
in that time.

Rev. Silas c. Swallow, ID. D.,
the Prohibition nominee for Presi-
dent, sent the following telegram to
VIM. J. Bryan at St. Louis:
"My Dear Mr.. Bryan-Read
Numbers, roth chapter, a9th verse.
Come"
Following is the verse: "And
Moses said unto Hobab, the son Of
Raguel, the Midianite, Moses father
in-law, We are joerneying unto the
place Of which the Lord said, I will
give IL to you; come thou with US
and we will do thee good; for the
Lord hath spoken good concerning
Israel"
The Rev. Silas G. may want TO
swallow up Bryan, but he will not
get the chance, as no good Demo
crat can be Prohibitionist.

We frankly admit that we were
not Parker man and that he was
not our choice for the Presidency,
but we have long ago found out that
we cannot always have our way and
in order to get along in this world,
have to "giyc and take" and make
the best of things as they happen.
We are not busting our galluses"
over Parker, but we are so well
pleased over Uncle Henry G. Davis
and anxious to vote for him, that
we may be able to stand Parker on
his account.

will have to hunt up another man
for Governor. II was all settled to
nominate Henry G.. Davis, and he
was the most available man we had,
but now the National Convention
has taken him up to help lead the
ticket and We hardly know where to
look for man to fill the bill in the
State contest as well as Senator
Davis, who could have been elected
Governor, but of course we will be
just as proud to have him Vice
President.
