the vein the force will be largely in
creased.

the ores carried the large quantity of
zinc.

From the Kansas City Journal
The simple truth is that Mr.. Bryan
is more an ambitious politician than
he is an uncompromising patriot.
There are two reasons why he is sup
porting Judge Parker. Although tenn
porarily repudiated and thrown down,
he still expects to receive high emolu-
ments from the Democratic party reg
ularity on straight. More Immediate
ly, he is an avowed candidate for the
United States Senate and he wants the
cooperation of the Democratic Ma
tional Committee and its Wall street
funds in carrying the Nebraska Legis-
lature this full He can get this only
by throwing his influence to Parker
in Nebraska, Missouri and other States
where his following is strong.
