BRYAN AND KERN

The democratic party enters on
the presidential campaign this year
with its old time vigor and equipped
with a ticket and platform that
cannot but appeal to the soDcr
thought of the country irrespec-
tive of political affiliations. Mr..
Bryan has steadily grown in the
estimation and the affections of
the people. A man who. in the
face of successive defeats; man
who has for years been the object
of ridicule and the butt of vitupera-
tive attack by the predatory inter-
ests of the country and is still able
to rise supreme as to
character and more strongly in
trenched than ever in the hearts of
his countrymen-i the man to
whom the people will likely tur n
for relief from the oppressive con-
ditiops imposed upon them by the
years of practically uninterrupted
rule of the Republican party a
reign that has been characterized
by unheard of orgies of the trusts
and combinations, fostered by the
almost criminal oonplacency of the
party in power. When MIR. Bry-
an in 1896 and 1900 pointed out
these abuses he was vehemently as
sailed by the subs idized press OF
the country as an apostle of de-
struction. But the seed sown by
him has borne fruit. President
Roosevelt saw the hand writing
upon the wall and forced reluc-
tant portion of his party with the
aid of the Democrats in Congress
to enact some remedial legislation,
but it is only scratch on the sur
face. The real work is still to be
done and the man to do it is the
man who first awakened the SLEEP
ing spirit of civic Righteousness.

trusted with this work by the peo-
pie.
The selection of Nv. Kern IS
Mr.. Brysn's running mate was
happy one. While not so we'll
known nationally as the tickets
head, he evidently has the confi-
dcnce and respect OF those in his
home state, Indiana, and of all
those with whom he has come in
contact. His nomination by &C.
clamation is itself a fit tribute to
his worth.
The platform is comprehensive

without any attempt to obscure rhe
real points by meaningless plati-
tudes.

months from this time Mountain
Home will have doubled its pre-
sent population, and unless sewer
age is provided in the meanwhile
we will be called upon to face dis
tressing conditions
1t has been urged by some that
a sewerage system would not be
practicable here for tho reason
that the sc ~ers could not oc prop
erly flushed. This OBJECTION has no
basis in fact. At a cost of not to
exceed $3.50 an electric motor could
be provided to pump water, but
even this contingency would not
have t. met met for the reason that
Henry Hewitt, Jr of Tacoma and
Seym y r II. Bell of Coos Bay, who
installed the electric light plant
here, stand ready and willing to-
day to ask for a franc h1se and post
a forfeit that they will have a wat
er system completed and in op-
Grafton by the time the sewer is
completed.
The question to be voted upon is
the Issuance of $40, 600 in bonds.
OF this amount $40, 600 would be
required for the trunk system
through the alleys and the remsin-
der for the 1ateIals to connect with
she trunk sewers. This $40, 600
would D. met by general taxation
while the balance would be met by
taxation against the property ac-
iually affected The payment of
the bonds would extend over a per-
iod of 20 years so that the cost
would hardly be felt and would be
very small for each lot and would
be more than offset by the bene-
ifts-not only as to the health of
the community but the enhanced
value of the property. AS the town
grows and more lots are plated
and connected with the main system
the cost to present property holders
would be furthersreduced. +
Life is all any of us has, and
why hazard it daily bys. drinking
water from wells which we know
10 be polluted We cannot have a
healthful community under present
conditions Should an epide mic of
typhoid fever break out the NOR
tality results would be disastrous
to say nothing of the expense for
doctors and drugs
This is a question that should be
settled in the right way on Tues
day next. Everyone having the
interests of Mountain Homes flu
ture and its present welfare at
heart should vote in favor of the
bond ISSUE.

 kisses sweet I stole from thy red lips-Oh. Dream
 complete. In words of passion I did tell my love, And thou didst stop and look it;o
 mine eyes, Then passion died and holy love held
 sway, As I beheld thy soul through win
 dows clear. Ali life seemed loye-Oh. Dream so
 dear. i held thee tight and pressed thee
