Bryan'S Third Battle.

AS, for the past year or two,
the country has looked upon Mr.
Bryan's nomination in 1903 as in
evltable, the actual fact, now
that it has come, will excite no
surprise. Today's quotations on
the exchanges throughout the
United States will not be dis
turbed by the news, nor will A.
merlcan shares on any of En-
ropes bourses drop. In the lam
guage OF the markets, the nomi-
nation has been discounted ,,
All along the Republican leaders
nave had this Democratic seIec
ton in mind. In authorization Of
DenVer's choice, Chicago nomi-
mated Taft. The nomination of
any other man than Bryan ves-
terday would have necessitated .
change Of plans among the Re-
publican campaign manaoor,
Mr.. Bryan's own confdencn in
MS nomination has apparently
Oeeh strong from the moment the
delegates began to be selected
ms has been shown by his at
tacks on obnoxious leaders in his
party, like Harris of Kansas
farker Of New York, McGraw Of
West Virginia, Guf'ey of Penn
syIVanla, and others. In the
case OF some of these men his at-
tacks failed. His purpose 70
drive them out of the party did
not succeed, except with Guffev,
But all along he felt that the
Nomination was in his hands. and
ne was willing to trust to chance
for the election.
With the materials at its dis
pOSal Denver has made as good =
choice as was possible. The rad
ical element is, as in 1896 and
l9OO, in the preponderance in the
Democratic party, and BRYAN
was its first and only leader.
Whatever can be done on radical
lines Bryan can do. All the ex-
tremlsts, the faddists, the Wis.
lonaries and the impracticables

But Put Damper on the Young MANS

The young man who aSUireS to the

woman who doesn't quite understand
| all he says. but nevertheless thinks it
is simply grand.
Look on the glories of the western
sky! he exclaimed.
She seemed puzzled for Minute and
said:

Reasonable and Fair.

Perhaps the declaration in re-
gard to the Tariff is second to no
other paragraph of the platform.
Pledging the Presidential nomi-
nee as soon as he becomes Presi-
dent to call a special session of
Congress for the purpose of re-
vising the Tariff, it proceeds to
declare in definite and unequiv-
ocal terms how that revision
shall be done. The differences
between the cost of production
at home and abroad with a reas-
enable profit is to be the meas
ure in determining how high the
Tariff is to be fixed for each ar
ticle enumerated, and this will
satisfy the manufacturer, the
| workingman, and the farmers OF
the country, for it insures the
home market to home manufact-
urers and producers, guarantees
| good wages, and at the same
| time, and what is highly impor'
tant, pledges to give the Protect
ed interests only a reasonable
profit. The Tariff has been crit
| icised mainly because it is alleged
| that some Protected interests
| have been able to secure more
than a reasonable profit. Ever
| if that has been the case, thu
platform adopted by the Repub
lican party pledges that only
reasonable profit shall be provid
ed by the Tariff schedules. N
fair-minded man should ask les
and no honest man demand more

Il was to address a public meeting.
and there was intense prejudice
against me, so the young man who
had to introduce me thought he would

said, because he has been in strikes.

Straight Business.

A newspaper has two things to
sell-subscriptions and advertls-
ing space. It's publishers labor
to make both worth the price
asked, and it's patrons are those
who want its wares and have the
money to pay for them. To say
that a merchant who lives in an
other town shall not use adver-
Using space in the local paper is
to deny the paper the right to do
business on the same lines that
the merchant conducts his affairs
that of selling to any reputable
buyer who has the price. To de-
ny an unobjectionable advertiser
space at the same rate others pay
IS also to violate the implied pro-
visions under which the paper is
admitted to the mails as second
class matter, for one of the dec
larations made in securing entry
Of any publication as second class
mail matter is in answer to the
question, Can any house in good
standing advertise in your publ
cation at the regular published
rates." Earlville Qll.) Leader.

THE DOPE SHEET.
It's glorious summer today.

It's glorious summer today.
 Expectancy has no more to do with it. The fans want the opener, Father Vaughn.
 The Barons should divide the series at all events.
 It will be a sad day in Atlanta if rain spells the pennant hoisting.
 Rain caused the postponement of the St. Louis and Pittsburg game.
 Fine work in the morning and afternoon characterized the final practices.
 Montgomery will be lvelier today than any time since the adoption of secession. Fucker pitched good ball for Brooklyn, but what pitcher can win for the Dodg- CTS?
 Cy Young, in spite of his 4O-odd years, still wins. He landed the opener yester- day.
 Robertaille will work today unless some thing happens. Ginger Clark is slated for the second game.
 AS result of his trade with New York, the St. Louis Americans are 25 per cent stronger than last season.
 The Memphis-Lttle Rock game was postponed until tomorrow because today is an election in Memphis.
 Columbus tenure of first place was short lived, but Columbus is doing well in the Cotton States just the same.
 The Chicago Cubs have again assumed the lead, and are starting on the road for the third pennant hoisting.
 Large and enthusiastic attendances characterized the opening games of the American and National leagues.
 
 Mathewson let the Athletics down with -Four hits. The great Christy might be re- turning to his old championship form.
 They are playing wonderful ball in the South Atlantic. Think of all three games of yesterdays schedule resulting in drawn results.
 The Barons won the first game of the 1906 season and won the pennant. The Barons landed the first game of the 1907 season and finished in the second division. Ty Cobb will hit harder than Henry Meek this season, it is indicated. Yester day when Chicago defeated Detroit he got home run, a double and a single in four trials. Incidentally, Chicago had an easy day.
 Two extra inning affairs in the Amer ican league yesterday, St. Louis winning from Cleveland in 10. and New York trim ming Philadelphia in 12. It was Harry Niles long fly that landed the battle for New York. The largest crowd in the history of Cincinnati baseball saw the opener yester- day. Cincinnati piled up five runs in the first inning and then dropped the game to the Cubs. Overall, in the beginning, was very wild. Brown saved the day, | however.
