EDITORIAL COMMENT.
Bryan For 1908.

Golfers for June 8 says:
If Bryan is nominated, as now
seems probable, the democratic party
will mean that it trusts the spirit
more than it distrusts the letter.;
trusts his seriousness and devotion to
the average man more than it dis
fruits an intellect which often goes
astray after shallow remedies. Events
have helped him more than he has
helped himself, but he has not been
without his share in bringing his
party's opinion around in his direc-
ton. His support of the president
was one astute and large-minded de-
cision, and his calm and judicious
essay on socialism was another. The
feeling of the country, however, that
the railroads have partly triumphed
in the rate bills contest, and that the
vested interest control the tariff, and
that money generally is the ruling
power, Is what helps Bryan most.
Next to that, perhaps, is the feeling
of loyalty that is strong in human
kind. His very defeats, in his cam
paigns, and especially in the buneoed
stronger with the Middle-Western
voters, VINO nave always Deen the
basis of his strength. Feeling that
he has never had a fair opportunity
that he had more votes than McKin-
ley in n election, that life insur-
ance and other corporation money is
now shown clearly to have been used
in large sums to compass his defeat,
and that the men who dominated the
convention of 1904 were corporation
servants as thorough as Aldrich him
self, the Bryan following is looking
eagerly for a contest on more even
terms.

This house plan appeals to me as
being one of the neatest and most in
teresting low cost houses ever built.
Inc plan lends itself to splendid ar
ransement of rooms, both upstairs and
| down. 1t Is easy to arrange the neces-
sary conveniences when the rear of
the house is wider than the front, and
this plan is easily covered with a
TWO section roof on the three-gable
plan, one OF the most satisfactory
roofs ever built. This style of roof
dates back to the earliest American
architecture. It originated in the
efforts of builders to add pleasing
'front.' to the old-fashioned long houses
built with the side to the road, but
this plan has been improved upon un-
I'll the completed house shows very
little resemblance to the original ef-
forts in this direction.
While the front part of the house
Is pleasing and the arrangement is
almost perfect. the rear section is
given up entirely to the dining-room,
kitchen and the accessories to these
rooms. While we all like to see a
pretty parlor and an attractive hall,
we should remember that a house is
built to live in next year, and for a
good many years. The work of get
ting meals is about the same day
after day and year after year. Meals
are manufactured in the kitchen and
served in the dinlng-room three times
day, and little saving in work each
time amounts to 9 great deal In the
