WILLIAM j. BRYAN.

1.-THE democracy of Indiana, IN
convention assembled, sends greet
mos across the sea to that wise
and conservative statesman, un1al-
tering patriot and conservative
leader. William Jennings Bryan,
and pledges its votes in conVen-
ton and the electoral vote IN In
diana to him for president IN
1908"
The above is a resolution that was
adopted by the democrats OF Indiana
in state convention last week, and is
one of many similar endorsements OF
Mr.. Bryan within the last few days for
the next democratic nomination for
the presidency. The states OF Mis-
souri Arkansas and South Dakota
and various county and congressional
conventions throughout the country
have also passed resolutions favorlng
his nomination, and there is no doubt
that other conventions will do so.
And tits not only Mr.. Bryan's former
political friends and admirers who
would make him the party's standard
bearer again, but all factions are
turning to the great commoner as the
man to carry the party flag in 1908.
Among the democratic leaders who
opposed him in his campaigns for
president there is feeling very differ
ent from that which prevailed then.
Prominent Cleveland democrats
throughout the country are taking
seats in the Bryan band wagon, and
the indications are that when the
national convention meets he will be
the unanimous choice of united and
enthusiastic democracy for president
Arrangements are being perfected
to give Mr.. Bryan rousing recep-
ton in New York upon his return
from his trip around the world. To
this reception prominent democrats IN
all parts of the country will be invit-
ed, and that they will accept and be
present there isn't any doubt.

REPUBLICAN PROSPERITY

There is supposed to be uneXampled
prosperity of the republican high tar
if type in Chicago, and there no doubt
is for the protected beef barons and
other millionaires who are favored by
special interests by virtue of republi-
can policies. Yet, there seems to be
a vast deal of poverty that requires
the greatest economy to make bo,h
ends meet. The Chicago Commons
has undertaken to overcome this pow
erty by teaching girls how to keep
house on $40 a week. A large class
Las just graduated (who are all en-
gagged to be married) who have learn
ed to serve a breakfast for four for 10
cents, and dinner of meat, two vege-
tables, salad and pudding for 40 cents.
1t is to be hoped that the teachers OF
the Commons will add the study OF
political economy to the curriculum,
so that future housekeepers may know
that under the present republican
high tariff the cost of living has in
creased 46 per cent. If the tariff and
trust tax were deducted the $40 wages
would go a deal further, and there
would be no need for such pinching
economy.
