A silly
New York World (dem.)

N1~eAhkA
Angered by the loss Of New York City Mr..
Bryan asks in the Commoner: "If Tam
many will not support the democratic
ticket and platform when the ticket and
platform are satisfactory to the democrats
Of the nation. what is to be done?"
Had Mr.. Bryan been satisfactory to the
democrats of the nation it would have
made little difference what Tammany did.
Mr.. Bryan was hardly less unsatisfactory
to the democrats OF other sections Of the
country than those OF New York.
Tammany is the democratic organization
OF New York county only, and the county
gave Mr.. Bryan a sman plurality. The loss
OF the city was due to the overwhelming re-
publican vote in Kings county.
II Tammany is to be charged with
treachery for the loss OF Greater New York,
then Norman r. Mack must be charged
with treachery for the loss of Brie county,
which was carried by Taft and Chanler.
Likewise the democrats of Ohio, Indiana,
Minnesota, North Dakota and Montana
must be charged with treachery. They
elected their candidates for governor, al
though Taft electors were chosen. The
democrats of Illinois and Michigan must
be charged with treachery, for in these two
states alone Mr.. Bryan ran nearly 10000
votes behind the democratic candidates for
governor,
All the southern democrats must be
charged with, treachery, for in the south
Mr.. Bryan ran behind Parker. In Georgia
alone Mr.. Taft carried twenty-six counties
and gained 1900 votes over Roosevelt.
Mr.. Bryan must be charged Will treach-
cry, for in his own state of Nebraska he
ran behind ~shallenberger, the democratic
candidate for governor.
Indeed Missouri seems to about the only
state in the Union In which Mr.. Bryan was
not weaker than his party-and he lost
Missouri too.
Instead Of blaming Tammany Mr.. Bryan
should be grateful. But for the loyalty of
the regular 7Tammany organisation vote
Mr.. Bryan would have lost New York
county as we'll as New York City.

Silver Plays to the Galleries
States Attorney has Changed His Issues and Has
g.: . Badly Stopped Over F.

weeks ago it was given out that Mr..
Serumgard would ask for reelection
CT his record. That record is not such
as to give him even a fighting chance
of success and now he has been fore
ed tc throw that issue to the winds
and seek for another. In his anxiety
for reelection he has been forced to
slop over and resort to the cheapest
kind Of cheap politics, that of play
iLg to the galleries in a hope of gain
ing his end at the expense of others.
There is only two ways to account
for Mr.. Serumgard making the ao-
quotations he has against the drug
gists of Devils Lake. One of them is
that he Is leaving no stone unturned
to be reelected even if he has to stoop
to gross Misrepresentation, and that
he has made the statement that he
| has SO as to create public sentiment at
| the expense of innocent parties. The
other Is that he has been mis-inforw-
ed. We would prefer to think that the
| latter is the real cause for Mr.. Ser
umgard's attitude as outlined in the
Journals article, but even if this is the
case it would seem that he should
at least have taken the trouble to soc
whether his statement was true before
it was published.
But now along with this comes an
other feature of the question. What
will be the result of the move. VIII
the people swallow thing Of this
! kind without looking it up. mot 1t the
court knows herself and we rather
think she do" The result up to date
has been many scathing criticisms Of
the procedure not only from the drug
gists but by numerous other business
men and the people in general. There
is no evidence any place to show that
1 there was any truth in the article al
published and it seems to have been
manufactured purely for the purpose
Of Sssx, as: " ::e 49,

If there was ever evidence that
man was on the run it was shown
last Friday when the statement was
made in the Journal that Mr.. Serum
gard claimed that the druggists had
combined against him to defeat him.
The article read as follows:
Estates Attorney Serumgard is pre-
pairing to make vigorous fight for re-
election. The word having gone out
that the drug stores have combined
to defeat him, Mr.. Serumgard will
throw down the gauntlet to them, and
If there is anything in signs there
will be a hot time in the county dur
ing the next three weeks. The fight
ing qualities Of the states attorney are
sufficiently well known to assure his
opponents the worth of their money.
The issue will be presented clearly
to the people and it will be for them to
decide what they want"
Following the article comes this
statement signed by all the druggists
in Devils Lake:
