ISN'T FIXING ALI THE TRICKS.


 Brother Bryan began the game early, and at one time it looked as if he were going to take all the tricks. But he is- mt taking them all The letter of the President to Representative Watson can't be counted as one in Brother Bryans favor The Democratic man. agers admit that the Republican com mittee made a wise stroke when 1t se- cured the letter from the President, The letter, it is admitted, gives the com mittee the benefit of the Presidents CO., operation in the coming campaign and it has been the impression among the Democratic leaders all along that if the Republicans secured the next House of Representatives by a good majority, they would accomplish the result through the help of the President.
 But the Presidents letter is not the only setback for Brother Bryan. That was pretty hard slap when, by vote of 1,OSS to 57O, the Democratic State convention of Illinois placed on the table the request of Brother Bryan for the resignation of Roger Sullivan from the National committee. Despite the fact that Brother Bryan had declared that he did not wish to be indorsed un- less Sullivan was repudiated, the con vention declared him to be the one and only man capable of leading the Demo- cratic party to victory in 1908. The in' dorsement of Brother Bryan and the tabling of the motion calling for the resignation of MT. Sullivan came at the close of a most exciting session of thf convention, in which there were sey eral fights.
 So goes the game. Perhaps Brother Bryan is, afterpall going to have anoth. CT sad ending of brilliant future,

The Washington Post declares that
the Steel Trust has promised to sell
structural iron in San Francisco as
cheaply as it sells that product abroad"
and adds, that the bill to refund the
tariff duty has therefore been put to
sleep. With all due Difference to this
exclusive information in the Post of the
condescension and concession of the
Steel Trust, it is a safe bet San Francisco
will be lucky if it can buy steel at the
top price here. Why to sell steel in San
Francisco at the same price it is sold
abroad would defeat the republican
candidates for congress in every doubt

that the protectionists claim that trust

Senator Plains Open Letter.

IL llle NOlClS VI LIZ olSASeh ASSAS
lative District:
| understand that there are some
democratic voters who take exceptions
to what | authorized the Milton Globe
reporter to publish in last weeks issue
as to my attitude in politics.
I feel that the democratic party and
voters of Cavalier county have highly
honored me by e%lecting me once to the
house of representatives and twice to the
Senate. No words of mine can express
my gratitude.
I wish to make an explanation: Being
in full sympathy with the reforms advo-
Gated by the Republican Good Govern
ment League, l deem it my duty to do
what l can to help its promotion.
On account of the legislature being so
overwhelmingly republican, two or three
democrats could accomplish but little
for their state and constituents without
taking part with the reform element of
the party in power, which | did during
the last two sessions, and found this was
the only way in which to accomplish
anything.
In the first place, l was in such a
position that | had nothing whatever to
say in the organization of the senate,
adoption of rules and bylaws. assign
ment of committees, etc. In regard to
clerk hire: l have stood by and been
obliged to see from four to six clerks ap-
pointed upon recommendation of in
dividual members of the majority party,
while | was not allowed the courtesy of
the appointment of one. BY this | do
not wish to be understood as favorlng
an unnecessary number of clerks, be-
lieving that the number could be mater
tally reduced by appointing only such as
are competent of filling the positions. |
mention this in passing merely to show
the u~nfairness of past practices in this
connection. l, naturally, as a member
of the senate and a tax payer want a
voice on such matters.
The same holds good regarding the
passage of meritorious bills introduced
by democratic members, such as my
Torrens Title Bill which are invariably
squelched. Although | consider that
have been quite successful with most OF
mine, | had a very hard time. however.
during the 1903 Session in getting my
bill passed, raising the jurors fees from
$500 to $500 per day.
| have come to the conclusion that
very much prefer staying at home than
being re elected as a democrat and
working under such disadvantages.
In last weeks issue of the Langdon
Courier Democrat | noticed a short
editorial which read in part as follows;
But it is to be regretted that in a re-
alignment of party lines the senator
should find himself campaigning along
with the cast-otf wing of republicanism
which follows the lead of such sore
heads as Ex-Goy. White. Ex-Congress.
