state Of Kentucky this year will have
on national politics He declared it
would be an influence that Democrats
cannot ignore, as it would be herald
ed as the first gun to be fir-d in the
celebration Of a great national vic
tory. In presenting Democratic doc
trines and urging Democrats of Ken
tucky to rally to the support of the
state candidates of the party, Mr..
Bryan spoke as follows:
am down in your campaign this
year because believe that it has an
important bearing upon the success
Of the principles in which feel deep
~ interested. know the men who
have been non mated for several IF
your offices, and am interested In
Them, but / am interested even more
In the principles for which they stand.
! am Interested in national politics,
rs state politics has its influence upon
national politics, and ! want to give
you two reasons why | believe that
every Democrat should be out at the
polls this year and vote the Democrat
le ticket from top to bottom.
In the first place, Kentucky is one
of our Democratic states, and | do
not want us to have to enter a ma
tional campaign handicapped by Re
publican victory in the state of Keu-
lucky. There is no local reason why
you should turn down an administra-
ton that has administered the gov
eminent economically and in your in
terest. If you want to find a contrast
between a state administration that
is Democratic and a state administra-
ton that is Republican you can so
into the states where the Democrats
control, like the state of Missouri, for
instance. and compare the expense
of the government in the administra
ton Of the state affairs with the ad-
ministration in states which Republi-
cans control. For instance, compare
Missouri, a Democratic state. with
Pennsylvania. Republican state, and
you can understand the difference be-
tween the two kinds of administra-
ton. IL Is natural Ihat tne Democrats
should be more economical than Re-
publicans, because Democrats teach
that taxation is a necessary evil to be
borne emily so far as Is necessary for
the support of the government
Whereas the Republican party has for
a quarter of a century taught the doc
trine that taxation is a blessing, and
II people have a hard time all you
have to do is to increase their taxes
IN order to tighten their burden and
increase their blessings. 1t is nat
ural that those who believe that tax
alton is a necessary evil should limit
It and restrict 1t as much as possible,
and II is perfectly natural that those
who in national politics teach that
& tariff Is a blessing to the people

AHEAD


Chicago. ILL.,, Aug. 19.-The devel-
Opments in the telegraphers' strike
today comprised the calling out of
leased wire operators in six brokerage
houses and the issuing of a number of
conflicting statements regarding the
progress of the strike by the officials
of the union and by those of the tele-
graph companies. Both sides claim
to have the strike won. The tele-
graph companies, however. are GER
tainly increasing their number of men
at work and both of them had today
on the Board of Trade a larger num-
Der of operators than at any time
since the commencement of the strike.
Early in the day the union announc-
ed TO a number of brokerage houses
that they would give them until 1
o'clock to sign the scale or a strike
would be called. Six of the largest
houses in the city refused to sign and
cheir men we're ordered out. In one
Of the Offices, however, three of the
men continued at work.
Many of the messenger boys who
struck on the day following the walk
out of the operators returned to work
today.
All efforts by outside parties looking
toward adjustment of the trouble have
been abandoned and the contest. to
all appearances, has settled down to a
waiting game on both sides.

INJURED IN A FIRE
At SAN AUGUSTINE

CBy Long Distance Telephone to the
Houston Post)
San Augustine, Texas, Aug. 20, a
MN a fire which originated at 9
o'clock last night, but which did not
burn itself out until after midnight
this morning. there was a large prop.
erty loss and a number OF the young
men Of the town who engaged as vol.
unteer fire fighters were badly burn.
ed
The injured are:
Ray Strickland.
Holly Rankin. manager Of the tele-
phone company
Frank Langston.
George Mckee.
Cate Downs.
Ed Smith
Mr. Bierholter.
The origin of the fire was in the
second story of ]. L. Kings grocery
store. As soon as It was discovered
the volunteers were on the ground
and began fighting the flames. A
number of them went pell-mell up the
stairs at the King grocery. only to be
met as they reached the second land
ing by an explosion of oil and gaso-
line that scattered fire all over the
building and upon them, burning them
severely. There were reinforcements
at hand, and the fight continued. but
it was not stopped until after three
hours of the hardest work The fol-
lowing were the losses:
J. l.. King, grocery, building and
contents.
Tucker, Stark & Co, two warehous-
es and two store buildings. all Of
brick, and contents being furniture.
The four brick buildings occupied
by the furniture concern we're owned
by S. W. Blount Of Nacogdoches and
the King grocery building was owned
by Crockett Blount Of Nacogdoches.
II is impossible to estimate the loss
at all this morning. It will be heavy,
as the furniture company carried n
large stock of goods and the buildings
which we're destroyed were substan-
tial structures.
The injured young men are not be-
lieyed to be seriously hurt.

NO BUGGY OR SOAP.
Young Man and Sc Gone and Ladies
Bemoan Their Departure.

Houston. Texas. Aug. 19.-Another
instance Of credulous persons trying
to get something for nothing has
come to light on Edwards street. A
young man appeared in the neighbor-
hood last week selling soap. Along
with the soap he gave a ticket that
represented a chance in a buggy that
was to be drawn. The young man
told his victims in strict confidence
that he knew to a certainty which
ticket would win the prize, and as he
had conceived the greatest friendship
for the lady with whom he was speak
ing. he would give her the winning
ticket for So provided she would buy
81 worth of soap.
This little dodge worked in several
instances. and a number of ladies' are
out Sc in consequence. When neither
10 young man, the buggy nor the
,Sshowed up they began to tell the
49, L. -esult
thst the trick was discovered. He
had obtained a promise from each not
to mention the matter to any one,
thus giving himself a chance to get
away. Their chance of recovering
their six is as remote as was their
chance Of winning the elusive buggy.
