All the suckers do not live in the
farming districts In fact, while the
merchants of the towns may laugh
at the farmers for being skinned"
by the travelling box-car man or the
mail order house, the merchants
should make an examination of self
and see how many times. they, too,
have been swindled through the opera
lions of strangers. One Of the most
common games at which the business
men nibble is the advertising graft.
How many merchants have contribut-
ed good hard dollars to some schemer

some new-fangled advertising deal?

A Contrast

There seems no connection between
two news dispatches published yes
terday. One informs us that the
New York Central R. r., has spon-
taneously advanced the wages of its
employees, the other that E. H. Harri.
man has laid off some thousands of
laborers on the Southern Pacific.
The four generations of Wander
bilts, since the old Commodore built
New York and Hudson R. R., have ad-
hered to his policy of legitimate rail-
reading; as. consequence Governor
Hughes of New York, who exposed the
Insurance frauds, vetoed the cent
rate bill which the legislature passed
as a bid for cheap popularity.
While Hartman cannot be called
railroad wrecker as was the late
Jay Gould, he is plunger. Between
him and the vanderbilts it is ques
ton of a natural conscience and an
elastic one. The difference between
the two is manifested by the acts o.
the respective parties.

Bryan and His Candidacy

cratic party. His honesty anu III
tegrity unquestioned, his claims to the
presidency would appear established,
were If not that the nation and the
times demand other qualifications.
Mr.. Bryan has a host of friends
among the Democratic leaders of the
North Unfortunately for him and
his cause, many of these leaders have
alienated the great body of voters,
known as Independents, the men who
really do hold the balance of power.
George Fred Williams in Massachu-
sets, Mack of Buffalo, N. Y, Tom l..
Johnson of Cleveland, O., and others,
do not command respect. Tom john
son is demagague pure and simple
and his methods deserve condemna-
ton from every thinking man. After
selling his poor and badly equipped
| street railway W d huhioSi " NNP-
talists who placed Cleveland's cleo
trio roads upon a splendid footing, he
used his official position to compel
the corporation to sell out to him.
When he was reproached in the press
that he advocated three-cent fare
in Cleveland whereas he maintains a
fve-cent fare upon his street railway
in Pennsylvania, he had the impu-
dence to reply: In Cleveland play
politics. in Pennsylvania it is bust
ness. How can party expect to win
in a state under such a leader? 1t
deserves defeat.
Do such men show their allegiance
to BRYAN from patriotic motives
The presumption is that pure-oi
rather impure, selfishness is at the
bottom of such strange devotion. II
is alleged that Mr.. Bryan has indi
Gated his intention to place some o
his friends into certain office. This
