The report that Bryan made
$52, 900 last year from his lectures
is seized upon by Harper's Week
ly as the suject for a cartoon
representing the peerless leader
as a bloated plutocrat. And yet,
with all his faults, Bryan was
well worth $500 to the people
of the United States. If he did
nothing else, he made such men
as Fairbanks, Knox, Foraker and
Cannon impossible republican
nominees for the Presidency.
And that alone was worth $52,-

1t appears that members of the
Western Federation of Mines
in Goldfield, New, are bound to
commit acts of violence. It
seems to be their sworn duty.
Outrages are reported almost
every day against nonunion men,
and it is a common occurrence
for one to find dynamite in his
stove when he goes to his cabin
after his days work. This surely
is no longer a free country when
a man can't work, or live, with
out permission from a labor union.

CHEER UP.

When today's difficulties over
shadow yesterdays triumphs and
obscure the bright visions of to-
morrow
When plans upset and whole
years of effort seem to crystalize
into single hour of concentrated
bitterness
When little annoyances eat into
the minds quick, and corrode
the power to view things calm
ly-
When the jolts of misfortune
threaten to jar loose the judg-
ment from its mornings
Remember that in every bust
ness, in every career, there are
valleys to cross as we'll as hills to
scale; that every mountain range
of hope is broken by chasms of
Encouragement through which
run torrent-streams of dispair!
To quit in the chasm is to fail.
See always in your minds eye
those sunny SUBMITS of success!
Don't quit in the chasm! Keep
on. Exchange.

The murder of Father Leo
Heinrichs in a Catholic church at
Denver, Colorado, early Sunday
morning by Alio Giuseppe, an
Italian anarchist, brings with a
shock to the hearts of the people
the Relation of how dangerous
to the welfare of our country and
its citizens is the admission into
this country of these anarchistic
spirits from the old world.
Father Leo was shot and killed
as he was administering the
sacrament to Giuseppe at the
communion rail and fell dead at
at the foot of the alter. The
murderer was captured after es-
Gaping from the church and
stated that he had intended kill
ing four priests that morning I'M
less apprehended too soon. He
did not know Father Leo but
had an insane craving for the life
of all priests. The murderer
was later taken from the city to
prevent a possible lynching.
Almost daily we read of similar
atrocities committed all over the

The decision of the U. S.
supreme court regarding the
operation of saloons on the Nez
Perez reservation may be all
right from some points of view
but it is decidedly bad for the
country effected. The saloons
are now being operated by
responsible men who give bonds
for the proper conducting of
their business, pay nearly $18, 900
yearly into the county treasures,
and sell liquor that is as pure as
is usually handed out over. the
bar. When these saloons are
closed this large revenue will be
cut off, the 'boot-leggers" will
again resume business, rotten
liquor will be in evidence every
where and fully as much liquor
will be sold on the reserva-
ton as there is under present
conditions. The "boot-leggers"
will disregard U. S. laws and
Sunday-closing laws alike, and
will gather around them a gang
of toughs and thugs who will
terrorize every community where
they do business. If the closing
of the saloons would do away
with the liquor traffic on the
reservation it would be a differ
ent matter but it will not do so.
