BRYAN FOR 1908.

The Kansas City Star, which in |9O4 supported Theodore Roosevelt 'or president, has the following to |ay of Bryan for 1908:
 Unless there is some radical lhange of sentiment or dislocation If plans in the next two years Mir. William J. Bryan will be the next Democratic nominee for the Presi- sency. He will be more for |aidable candidate than he was in |896 or 1900, The Democratic party 5 more nearly unite d and stands in Retter light before the thinking peo- He of the country than at any other ime since the third Cleveland cam aign. Mir. Bryan has grown in ears, in wisdom and in poise. He Aetains his hold on his old followers nd has gained the admiration and Confidence of many others. Still oval to the free silver theory, he simits that free coinage of the white 4etal is not now needed; therefore, liver will not be prominent issue, nd in that particular Mir. Bryan is kronger with the conservatives A ithout being weaker with his old Exporters.
 The country can no longer be ade to believe that Bryan is "un- sfe." Unfriendly business inter- ts said that Roosevelt was unsafe. autious diplomats declared that he as alarmingly dangerous. Yet isiness was never more prosperous Id stable than under the Roosevelt
 miristration, and our foreign re- tions were never more cordial and cure. The surprise for the alarm
 s has not been in what the Presi-
 mt has done nor in the way he has
 ne 1t so much as in the results of
 action. Frankly speaking, Roose-
 [ is radical. But the country is
 stty thoroughly convinced that a
 iical President has been needed
 l will be needed until the reforms
 ugurated by Roosevelt have been
 omplished. Some day the country
 y need conservative head, and
 { does it will elect that kind of a

PUBLIC MONEY IN THE BANKS

The Kansas City Star discussing the proposition to deposit SIP, ,00O, 900 in the banks of San Francisco, with the understanding that it remain there several years, among other things, says: XXX
 The transaction is equivalent to a loan of government money without interest to the banks, which, in turn. lend it to the city and receive interest on it. The money is subject to withdrawal at any time, but the Secretary of the Treasury probably will leave it undisturbed for several years.
 Millions of government money are on deposit in the banks of New York and elsewhere on substantially the same terms as in this case, so there is nothing unusual in the transaction. xxx
 The rational procedure would be for Congress to pass law providing for depositing government money in the banks at the highest rate of

 There is no good reason why the government should not receive from s1 ,00O, 900 to s3,0O0, 900 annually in interest on surplus money deposited with the banks. and the slow-moving body of national lawmakers will come around. some time, to this view"

isn't afraid to employ unusual meth ods to do things that cannot be accomplished in usual ways. It is not afraid of the "usurpation" of a Chief Magistrate who demands noth- ing of Congress except what the people want and Congress should grant.
 Roosevelt and Bryan have many of the same elements of strength and popularity. They grasp the evils of public and business life and have the courage to cope with them. They have formative, assertive minds. They intutively and correct ly read public feeling. MT. Bryan has indorsed nearly all of the Roose- welt policies. He is broadly justified in his claim that some of these poli- ces are Democratic. The two men are close on the tariff. Bryan has been big enough to give Roosevelt credit, and the people are big enough to respect him for his candor.
 Bryan will be so hard to beat that the Republican party will have to put forth a mighty effort to win. It must train for the contest and put up it's strongest man."

It is announced from Washington that the national administration is preparing to prosecute the Standard Oil Company for it's numerous viola tions of the law, and will also arraign individual members. It will be noticed that old John D. Rocke- feller is in France where heis quietly sojourning out of reach of court officers. John D. is a wise old cad and probably knew that prosecutions were coming before seeking foreign lands.

As far as heard the president has not stated that he would refuse to sign the bill appropriating $25, ,000 for his travelling expenses as passed by both houses of Congress. The appropriation is all right and proper and by the way. it will come in very nice for Roosevelt's successor, Colonel Bryan, who is something of a traveller himself.

Cotton Acreage.

When the individual farmer to
determine whether or not he will
follow his file leader, the Cotton
Growers association, we wish to
suggest to him the following con-
siderations:
II he should be moved by the
thought that his neighbors, or the
South generally, might follow his
leadership and plant small crop,
and that he could. by planting a
large crop. get a full price for it,,
that he will be substantially a specu-
lator A speculator is one who takes
a chance or makes a guess. He
would be guessing or hazarding that
planters, generally, would follow the
advice of their association.
The other course for him, and
one free from any danger, is to
plant a full crop of foodstuff for man
and beast, and a resultingly smaller
crop OF cotton By this course he
would be safe either if large crop
or a small crop should be planted. If
a large crop should be planted he
would have a relatively small crop
/ to sell at low prices. If small crop
should be planted by the cottor
] growers, he would get a fine price
for that, and il would be largely sur
plus, because he had otherwise pro
vded for the principal support of his
plantation - Memphis News-Scim-
