As party shows itself homogeneous,
able to grasp the truth with respect to
new issues, able to discard unimportant
differences of opinion, sensitive with
respect to the successful maintenance
n government, and highly charged with
the responsibility of its obligations to

claim to the confidence OF the pu lic

Storm Signals.

A small newsboy was once called
upon to sell his last paper. He re-
fused. IF | let go, how kin l hoi-
ler?" he asked.
Mr.. Bourke Cochran, in the cam
paign of 1896, yelped his throat dry
in denunciation of w. j. Bryan. He
climbed back into the Democratic
band wagon in time to get the Tam
many Endorsement for Congress. But
he is said to nave fallen out with that
body. He can't very well play up to
the Republicans again. He would be
about as welcome as the measles.
Cochran is stuffed with noise as a
bushel OF potatoes is with potatoes.
1t has 10 come out of him, or he'd
choke. And so, having but one paper
left, he can't sacrifice it. Mr.. Bryan
is given the exquisite joy of having the
most celebrated mountebank in Amer
lea screaming his praises through the
autumn strawberries.
But, as the saying is, there is fly
in every ointment. Cochran is going
to unload his oratory on the Middle
West. He may even come to Toledo.

quate Navy.

William Jennings Bryan has always
opposed great American navy. He
went to Congress years ago, and if he
accomplished anything worthy of note.
tEe record has failed TO show ii. At
that time the Democrats all over the
country were looking to him with grow
ing admiration because of his obstruc-
tion tactics. On July 8. 1872, he arose
I'm his place in the House of Repre-
sentatives and opposing proposed
naval appropriation. said:
Mr.. Speaker. believe in sufficient
Dayy We have this now, either In ex-
Etence or in construction. We do not
need more"
Is the same Bryan Today.
Such was Mr.. Bryan sixteen years
ago and such he is to-day He has OPP
posed every proposed appropriation to
increase and strengthen our navy, as a
matter of defense and protection to our
coast line, and preventative or war
with other nations, as source of pride
and prestige and insurance to our coun-
try. The matchless record of our navy
at Santiago and in Manila Bay during
the Spanish war interests him not. Had
his ideas prevailed we would have had
no victories on the water In that war.
Must Always Be Ready.
As wars between nations come sud
denly, just as do personal conflicts be-
tween men, our navy must be maintain
ed upon that basis of possible contin-
gency Our national history shows that
wars have sprung suddenly into exist
ence while wise men were proclaiming
that war could not occur. There are
nany instances where the most unex-
eected occurrences have brought US to
the very verge of battle
We are not a military nation, yet we
are a rich nation. and undefended
wealth invites aggression the very
liberty of individual speech and action
which we as people so prize and
guard, renders it possible that at times
unexpected causes of friction with for
sign powers may suddenly develop.
Even ut present this-eountry Is nego-
tiating arbitration treaties with num-
Der of the great powers. These treaties
have a special usefulness because in the
event of some sudden disagreement they
render it morally incumbent upon both
nations to seek first TO reach an agree
nent to arbitrate and at least secure
q breathing space during which the
cool judgment of the two nations
involved may get the upper hand o-er
any momentary burst of anger. Srcn
treaties are entered into with the hope
q preventing wrong doing by 9th
against us anG also as proof that
we have no intention of doing wrong
ourselves
Preparedness safest Peace Argument
Yet it is idle to assume that this
world has yet reached the stage, or has
come within measurable distance of the
stage, when a proud nation, jealous o.
Hs honor and conscious of its great
mission i'm the world, can be content
TO rely for peace upon the forbearance

for q considerable period, engaged In
such enforcement, with marked eff
cheney and success. 1t proposes for the
presidency candidate who declares
his purpose 10 continue and complete
that enforcement of the law, and whose
competency TO do so with success has
been proved. Mr.. Bryan does not be-
lieye in the regulation of railroads. He
does not believe it practicable. He re-
CARDS it as bound to fail, although he
is willing to criticise the Republican
party for not accomplishing that vast
and complicated task all at once.
1T is natural to observe that, If the
people of the country desire railroads
to be regulated, and the laws regard
ing them to be enforced, it would be
wise TO entrust that regulation to Mr.
Taft, who believes in regulation, and
has faith in the wisdom and effective
ness of the law, rather than in the
hands of one who believes that all Ell
fort to regulate must prove futile.
The Democratic Record.
''What is furnished by the record OF

that it is competent to maintain the

promises of reform it tenders. No
proof whatever of that is offered All
the evidence we have is the other way.
The majority of us have not yet for
gotten the second administration or
Grover Cleveland. which ended only on
the 4th of March, 1897. The Democracy
then had its opportunity to show the
world what it could do with govern
ment, for it possessed the executive
office, majority of the Senate, and a
majority of the House. Its opportunity
10 exercise that control for the public
benefit was wasted Dscord and con-
fusion reigned throughout the entire
four years. Incapacity to reach prac-
teal conclusions or to take any effect
i've action was demonstrated. No prom
ises were kept. No reforms were ac-
complished 1t became apparent that
the sole cohesive force that bound the
Democratic party together was the de-
sire for office, and, once in office, in
stead of progress, we had ali factions
pulling different ways, totally incapable
Of agreeing upon a common course OF

MAN KILLED BY DENVER
& RIO GRANDE MONDAY

Coroner Whitmore returned home
Tuesday from Florence where
he was called Monday to inquire in
to the circumstances attending the
death of an unknown man found dead
on the Denver and Rio Grande rail-
road tracks about three miles east OF
that city.
Some colored boys while going home
along the railroad track about 8
o'clock stumbled over the mangled
body of a man about As years of age,
and on reaching Florence reported
their discovery to the. authorities, who,
in turn, apprised Mr.. Whitmore OF the
gruesOme find.
From an investigation of the matter
the conclusion was reached that the
name Of the deceased was Peter Kick
ham and that he was run over by
train No. 9, due here from Pueblo at
7:3o o'clock. The body was badly
mangled and was, apparently, dragged
distance of between three and
four hundred feet. From letter
found in one of the pockets of the dead
man it was learned that his mother
is resident ;of Denver and that he
formerly lived in that city. Tho body
was taken to F. d. McCormick's un-
dertaking rooms at Florence where
they we're prepared for burial and
where 1t was held pending a mes
sage from the relatives of the dead
man. 1t was 30 palpable that death
was due from accident that 1t was not
thought necessary to empanel a jury
