ST. LOUIS PAPER THINKS THEY
ARE WORTHY OF ATTENTION.
Nebraskan Points Out Changes That

From the St. Louis Globe Democrat
William J. Bryan, in an address at

has been pointing out many changes
which have taken place in his party S
ASPIRATIONS since the ST. Louis con-
vention of 1904, and rejoices at those
changes. Radical democracy, he
says is to be at the front in the con-

and the country has had enough, he
declares, of conservative democra-
. cy meaning, it is to be presumed,
the sort that was represented by Par
ker last year. Mr.. Bryan fought that
Skind Of democracy eloquently and
cowageously in the ST. Louis con-
8yention, and probably feels that he is
syIndicated by the tremendous defeat

What Mr.. Bryan says about the

Fruit Outlook Good.

Many farmers are not Inclined to
be pcssimistic in regard Ia the dam
age done the fruit crop by the recent
froSts. From the reports thus far re-
ceived many are of the opinion that
the budding orchards are in far bet
ter condition than has been indicated.
In that section of the state lying
Immediately north of Harrisburg the
fruit is badly injured, just how bad
~, it will be impossible to say foI
several weeks to come.
In the fertile Cumberland Valley,
which is rapidly taking the lead a
mong the fruit producing centcrs of
the East reports conflict. Some say
that all crops have been absolutely
ruined, while Others say that no in
jury whatever has been sustained
The fact that the reports are so posi-
tive and 50 diametricaliy opposed to
each other is taken as the very best
possible indication that the damage
done, however, severe it may be, is
merely local and does not extend
through the length and breadth Of
the valley.
The peach crop IS naturally most
affected by the blightlag breath Of
the frosts, but pears mud apples have
also been badly nipped in places. II
is safe to say that cherries have es-
capped with but slight Injury.

The entire evening was most
charmingly spent. The net re-

all net since there were no expenses
attached. This is quite hand
some sum to realize, considering
the small admission fec of 5, 10
and Is cents. We have been in
formed that much honor and credit
for the success of the concert is due
to Miss Mahala Smith and Mrs.

on this occasion was the handsome
new piano loaned by Miss Mahala
Smith. Thus steadily the Union
