islature, and in our opinion con
ditions are such that makes it
important for a mass meeting
about the first Saturday in Jan
uary. The writer will endeavor
to have a conference with the
delegation to decide upon a date.
There are several questions
which should be freely and can
didly discussed: among which
is the matter of county taxation,
whether the people want the
lien law repealed, and do they
want the mortgage on crop clause
repealed with it.
The delegation should know
the feeling of the people with
regard to these matters, and at
this meeting plain: clear cut
resolutions should be adopted.
Last year such a meeting was
held, and resolutions were adop-
ted. but after the legislature ad-
journed there seemed to be a
misunderstanding about the ac-
ton Of the meeting. and the in.
struc5ions to the representatives.
Let the coming meeting. should
their be one, place itself on
record explicitly that no misdn-
derstanding will result.

Bryan made the gamest fight
ever made on the American con-
tineat. He started out under great
disadvantages, with a disorganiz-
ed force. The Democratic party
in the North: West and East had
to be gotten together: it looked
like an impossible task to unite
the party, but it was done by
William Jennings Bryan;s great
personality, intensity of purpose,
and high integrity. AS long as
this country will have political
parties Bryan's impress will be
found upon the governmental po
licies. AS long as the republic
exists his writings and speeches
will be quoted from as standard
authority. His name is written
in history as one of the greatest
thinkers and orators America has
ever produced. He is defeated
for the third time, but is still a
leader.

the election was bought, but in
our humble opinion treachery
was no small factor in encom-
passing the defeat Of the Demo

The Northern Methodist
church made a strong effort to
defeat Speaker Joe Cannon, but
they failed, and the indications
are that the Republicans have
made gains in Congress. The
Republicans claim Bryan's State.
