BRYAN AND HARMON

William J. Bryan drove home an
:, other nail when he let it be known
/, that, should he be nominated by the
y Denver convention he would like
~ to see Judson Harmon, OF Cincin-
= natl named for the second place.
!, JudsOn Harmon has not said in so
Athe nomination for vice president
but the indications are that he
would not refuse, were the place
offered to him.
"a Such a combination would indeed
be ideal. Judson Harmon has been
@ mentioned as candidate for the
nomination for president. He is
made OF the stuff Of which presi-
dents are made. He is fully worthy
.of the place at the head of the tick
Get and he is an Ohioan. When his
name was mentioned some weeks
Hago as a candidate for the presi-
luoOhSsb thp ptpPiC vi thC NOuntis
sdid not take kindly to the idea for
.the reason that they had made up
..their minds that Bryan was the
sgreatest man, the man who could
lead the party to victory and they
xwere determined to have him for
their standard bearer. 1t was not
- case of loving Harmon less, but
Sof loving Bryan more. The same
reception would have been given
ITO any other man who attempted to
break in upon Bryan's strength.
dn his acquiescing in the plan as
mapped out by Mr.. Bryan, Mr. Har
anon has given another evidence of
Ngreatness Many man with his
ability and his requirements would
1ave arisen in his dignity and de-
llared that II he could not have
first place, he would have none.
THE people admire the man who
never gets too large for the place
they have to put him.
1t is true that Harmon deserted
the Democratic party in 1896, when
silver was the paramount issue but
he came back again in 1900 and
since that time he has never de-
herted from his first political love.

to criticize each and all, there would
only fair majority escape. Some
of those who crossed over have for
gotten to come back, but Mr.. Har-
mon was not one of that number.
In Bryan's second campaign he
fought for the Commoner and he
was active in the Parker campaign,
four years ago. Mr.. Harmon has

1896, been considered conserva-

jected to by Bryan democrats and
the nomination of Bryan on ticket
with Harmon could not call forth
comment from conservative demo-
Gratis. His nomination would mean a
cementing more firmly of the un-
ion between the old factions which
have torn the party to pieces and
carried her candidates down in de-
feat. This union which has already
been formed must be made firm,
ii we are to be victorious next fall
and the nomination of JudsoD Har-
mon will do much toward perfect
ing this bond.
Bryan and Harmon would be
combination against which the re-
publicans could throw any combina-
ton they chose, there would be no
danger of breaking the ties.

Her Man
Editress Willing to Wed so
She Can Get county
Printing. y

-Des Moines, Iowa, January 2s.--
When she learned that the Board of
Supervisors had denied her applica-
iton for portion of the county print
ing, supposedly because she was a
woman without political influence,
Miss Elizabeth Sohn. editress OF the
Storm Lake Vidette, decided that she
would take unto herself a husband.
She published an editorial card this
week, declaring that she needed a
man to swear for her when things
went wrong and attend to other du-
ties about the place that required a
mans attention.
Anyone is at liberty, to regard this
as a leap-year proposal who may feel
himself qualified" said the vidette.

MADE TOO
MUCH NOISE
Llkens Trust Prosecutions to
Hunting Bears with a
Brass Band

Waterbury. Conn, Jan. 2S.-Tha
too much publicity, has been given
ito the prosecution Of trusts was
the opinion express3d by Congress-
man H. T. BannonA Of Ohio in an
address before the chamber of
commerce last night. He likened
the method to hunting bears with a
brass band, and declared that it
had had widespread evil effect
when certain great corporations
were attacked on account of eva
sions of the law and on account
of their Illegal relations and unlaw-
ful dealings with great transporta-
tion companies" said. Mr.. Bannon,
'in the common mind the charges
made against such corporations were
accepted as being proven and ac-
tually existing against all corpora
tons and all forms of corporate
wealth
These conditions have effected not
only .those interested directly and in
directly. but find their expression Of
ten in hostile legislation, which has
in some sections OF our country
seriously impeded progress and de-
velopment. Because one man has
been proven recreant to his trust
or one corporation has been proven
dishonest Is no reason why there
should be a presumption on the
part of anybody that all corpora
tions are dishonest and all business
men unworthy of the trust neces-
sarily confided in them.
Il plead tonight for return,
not only by congress but by the leg
islators of the various states, to
the well-beaten paths of our faith
ers. Let confidence be again restor-
ed in the business world. Let the
demagclyues quit preaching the doc
trine that because one corporation
is sdishonest all others are necessar-,
lily so. Let us see that equal rights
are given to all in the business
world"
