DIVIDED WE FELL.

Some peoples vindictiveness
and hatred of Mr.. Bryan seems to
grow as the years pass by. 1t
looks peculiar to see men in one
breath boasting of Mr.. Cleve.
lands virtues and ability and in
the next showing, by their con-
tinual abuse of Nh. Bryan, that
they are unfit to judge either.
Mr.. Bryan and Mr.. Cleveland
have strong %followings, and by
the abuse of each other each has
succeeded in keeping their leader
up as a kind of perpetual candi-
date and, incidentally, the Demo-
cratic party out of control of the
government. Cleveland was a
candidate before Bryan, was de-
feated before Bryan, has been a
candidate as often as Bryan and
betrayed his party. He was elect
ed twice and showed a true friend
ship for the South, or rather that
portion of the country from which
the great bulk of his vote came,
and this latter is quite true. Of
about all president s.. Bryan
would as likely do the same thing,
he is as capable and as intelli-
gent as MI. Cleveland, but he
Q Q things different. For this,
for his willingness to stand or
fall by his convictions, therefore,
he, in the eyes of the Cleveland
worshippers, is everything that is
vile, visionary, and is termed a
dreamer. a Spectator, a fakir, a
political adventurer and despoil-
er of the Democratic party, etc.,
etc. The friends Of each are
again bringing out their old steeds
and showing forth their various
good points. their past achieve
ments and %narrating their unusu-
sual chances of success in the
coming political battle. The fact
is neither of them will ever again
be president and the talk and
speculations of their followers
serves only one purpose. That is
to keep the. breach in the party
as wide as possible. It is won
derful to look over the results
of this eactional strife, it is tire
some, it is. ridiculous and worse
than quixotic. Isn't it possible
to compromise on some good
Southern man and let these fac
tional disputations cease? A Mo-
ses must be raised if the Democ-
racy doesn't wish to lose the way
to the White House, Bryan
could have been elected in 1896,
served his day and retired ere
this, had it not been for these
factional chickering's of the party.

mense wealth regardless of laws

to our national traditions as a peo-

from men like President Roosevelt,

The Most Costly Place to Live.

United States Concul Coe, sta
toned at Dawson, again warns all
concerned that the prices in the
Yukon Territory take away a
newcomers breath. ''Everything
consumed in way Of living costs
from two or three times as much
in this country us it does in the
United States," he writes. There
is no article sold for less than 25
cents, no matter how trivial. as
there is no money in circulate on of
a lesser denomination than that
amount. The cost of living will
remain high SO long rs the means
of getting supplies into the coun-
try remain as they are, and what
is true of the Yukon Territory is
true of the Yukon valley from the
Alaskan line to the coast.
