Three cheers for socialism," He was hissed down.
 Bryan said he had returned from a-ber land, thankful for the provi- dence which had cast his lot in the Tinted States and that his love for our form of government had been quick eped: that he was impressed with our national responsibility and that while Americans must be students, willing Co learn good things from others, they must also teach those whoare learners.
 Brings Message of Peace
 Mir Bryan said he had brought home message of peace: that the sentiment of all nations is growing in f@'or of the Hague tribunal to settle inter- national controversies by arbitration, and aoafnst the use of naval power for -be collection of debts This habit, he said. retards the progress ofAmeri- can trade in the smaller nations, which fear to encourage the investment of American capital in their territory because such investments ml-h, .e"o 70 international trouble.

 Turning 70 administrative topics Mr. Bryan said that the European system of legislative government is more gufckIv responsive to public sentiment than the American congress, which does not mee, for thirteen months after it's election.

People Should Govern

All countries visited, said Mr. Bryan, are demanding that govern ment be brought closer to the people. One step in this country, he affirmed, would be the election of senators by direct popular vote.
 Mir. Bryan avowed his adherence to the belief that the income tax is just, He said it was disgrace that in time of war we use the army and navy to protect wealth, yet cannot compel wealth in any emergency to bear Its just share of supporting the govern, ment.

Miners in GuIch Take Out Five Ounces of Gold per Day
 for Each.
THREE ON OTHER STREAMS
Late Arrivals From KahiItnd Greeks Tell of Increasing Production
 in New District.

Five ounces a day to the man on Poor Mans creek three ounces a day per man on several other creeks, and smaller but highly profitable result, in various places in the upper Kahiltna region, is the latest statement of the situation there. Nearly all the men who are working steadily are at least taking out wages and majority are doing better than that.
 This news is brought by A. C. Chris topherson, Charles Regor, Walter Ste wart and Charles Viedt, known throughout the Kahiltna country as the Big Four" who arrived in town last night via Sunrise and the John son creek trail. Jerome Hatchey acc companied them from Susitna station.
 Mir. Christopherson says he and his partners have been working some claims they have on Cache creek, about three miles from the head, where they have been taking out a little better than wages, though he is very conser- vative and doesn't care to talk much of his own affairs. He says their food supply was running very low, which was the cause of their coming out. They intend to go in again in January or February with a complete outfit and carry on their work on large scale next season.
 Several Paying Creeks
 Confirming previous reports Christo- pherson says that Falls, Dollar, Thur der, Nugget, Gold, Willow and Poor Mans creeks are showing up well and good pay is being taken out on each of them. While definite figures are inn possible in some instances, the follow ing report of men working on and re- suits obtained from the different creeks are very close to being correct;
 On Poor Mans creek Cone, Huddle- son, Larson, Carlson and Nelson are taking out about five ounces day to the man.
 On Willow creek Brisbane and Marsh took out 100 ounces in eighteen days, and Mace and Barton are taking out an ounce a day to the man.
 Big Yield on Nugget
 On Nugget creek Herndon and Ja- cobson are taking out about $50 day to the man, and Morris just below is taking out about the same.
 On Dollar creek Peters, Davidson and Cast are taking out about m ounce a day to the man, and Eber- hardt and Anderson are taking out between $3O and $40 a day to the man.
 On Falls creek Hammersmith and three others are working and taking out wages.
 On Thunder creek Peterson is taking out an ounce day and Clyde and Davenport are taking out wages.
 On Gold creek, at the confluence with Cache creek, Mcdonald and party are taking out wages.
 Some work has been done on Peters creek but until recently high water made satisfactory work impossible, so results are yet uncertain.
 Christopherson says Cache creek is located from the mouth to a mile past its head, and complains that until such laws as now exist, allowing such promiscuous locating as has been done throughout that region, are repealed, the country will not be opened up and developed as it should be.

A eubernatorial Bouquet.

In glancing over the bouquet OF
candidates that probably have gu
bernatorial aspirations, we see before
us a buch of flowers that contains
many varieties, most of whom would
do honor to the exalted position to
which they aspire, viz: Senator Grill
of Palatka, business man of great
ability and in whose hand the reins
of the state government could be
placed with safety.
Editor Frank Harris, of the Ocala
Banner, is a man known throughout
the breadth of the state and would
make a strong race for the guberna-
torial chair.
Captain Hillman, of Live Oak, a
staunch. upright and loyal citizen,
progressive and hustling, man of
great force of character and business
tact, is spoken of by his many friends
as a possible candidate. He would re-
ceive a plump vote from Alachua
county.
Now comes W. j. Bryan, the never
fiinching young prosecuting attorney
of Duval county, who by the fearless
and masterful way in which he full
fills the difficult duties of his Office
has won the admiration and resect of
all law-abiding citizens. He is a man
of sterling worth and would no doubt
fill the position both with credit to
the state and himself.
Senator Gilchrist. of Punta Gorda,
is now en- route home from Europe,
and tbs said will soon start the cam
paign going by publishing his an
nouncement. and still there's more to
come.-Alachua Post.

Mr.. VIM. d. Haywood, from his pri-
SON cell in Jackson county Jail, Bots,
Idaho, must have read President
Roosevelt's criticism of Judge Hum
phreys, for in his letter accepting the
socialist nomination for governor Of
Colorado. he says:
Four times has her supreme court
plunged the murderous, poisoned sti-
letto of the assassin into the very vi
tails of her constitution, while the gov
errors whom the Kings Bench"
crowned with the blood-soaked royal
preogatives, danced and clapped
their hands with the gIee of a mad
dervish.
For capitalistic chief-justice a
fitting name is Gabbert- an invectiye
that oozes like slime on the first syl.
liable and accents with the sting of
an asp a name with which to conjure
the maledictions Of all the imps of
Dantes Inferno. There is in Austria
liza nondescript creature with fur
covered body, four legs, wings and
beak. 1t lays eggs and suckles its
young. 1t is defined as bad case of
fusion, a spyphus. gabbert.
So far has the supreme court of
Colorado sunk below the level of com
mon decency, windlass would be re-
quired to hoist them into the presence
of his Satanic Majesty. Under the
black robes of iniquity Beelzebub will
recognize the prototypes of Iscariot
and Arnold; the five Kings Bench
advocates are distinguished by the
traitors symbol.
So course, SO fragrant is the last
fell decision of the supreme court
that the diiettante politicians are
aroused; sitting on their launches,
they are bowling like pack of man.
gy coyotes; their dwarfed mentali-
ties are unable to discern the cause
of the corruption in the body polite;
it needs lancing and strong poultice
of socialism; the superation is the
natural result of diseased system
Eliminate the virus of profit, interest
and rent from the industrial arteries
of the state, and the commonwealth
will no longer suffer the soul-raking
tortures, the effect of capitalism"
Now this is great doctrine, truly.
A man invests his earnings in ma
chinery the output of which is valu-
able to the community yet for the
investment of his capital and his in
dustry in working his machinery, he
must receive no profit. He must be
a patriot He must do all things for
those who with folded arms look on
while he does the toll, and in addi-
ton, he must receive no interest and
no rent. Mr.. Haywood's criticism of
the courts is too tough for serious
comment

Sets a Good Example.

What London paper considers the
most remarkable legacy on record is
that of woman who bequeaathed six
hundred pounds to a newspaper, ''in
recognition of my having so often
been entertained by it." Millions of
people are daily entertained by the
newspaper. 1t is their companion
and friend. It's regular visits are
looked forward to with eagerneSs
and pleasure. When it fails TO put
in appearance the day is incomplete.
One of the last friends that the av-
erage person would part with is the
newspaper. And yet most persons
regard it as merely so much merchan-
dise.-Volusia County Record.

There is q judge In Philadelphia
whose virtues should be extolled by
every newspaper in the land. This
Judge actually recognizes the newspa-
per as part of the government and
a most valuable and efficient part at
that. The duty of newspaper, he
says, is criticism. Think of a Judge
having this sort of democratic ideas.
One is almost taken back to the time
of Jefferson.
Just listen to the democratic lean
ing and doctrine of this Judge:
"A newspaper can print anything,
even to erroneous statements. 1t can
print anything except malicious lies.
Its function in the government is to
investigate, to pry into the business
of every department of the govern
ment and to critcise wherever it sees
fit.
''It sometimes makes me out of pa
thence with newspapers that all do not
realize their function, and that they
are virtually a part of the govern
ment 1t is their duty to find out evils
wherever they exist and bring them
to the attention of the responsible
authorities. They are the great safe
guard against corruption in public
office.
and how much better they can do
this work than any grand jury They
have their men going about every
where, nosing into everything. If
there is anything wrong they will be
sure to find it out. Some one will drop
a hint. Then the facts are printed,
and they go Immediately before the
administrative officer who is RESPONSE
BILE.
IF he does not act the remedy is
still in the newspapers. They can
bring the matter of his negligence Of
the public official to the attention of
the persons to whom that official is
responsible and lastly they place all
the facts before the people, who at
any time can regulate anything under
our form of government.
Furthermore, is it not their prov
ince? What do we have the newspa-
pers for? Why are they granted liber-
ties under the constitution? 1t is be-
cause they are needed as a part of
the government. They are a part of
the government, unrestrained, but
valuable and useful for that very rea-
son.
Further along he says:
IF member of a grand jury has
any criticisms to make of administra-
tive matters he should go to a news
paper with them and not endeavor to
transform the grand jury into a ma
chine for investigation on its own ac-
count"
It really looks as if the school that
Jefferson taught is with us again. The
name of this judge is Mayer Sulz-
berger, and the newspapers should
erect a monument to him.
