corporation and many of the news
papers in the north against him, he
polled 6,357,S26 votes. Mckinley re-
ceiving 7.104.779 votes. A million
democrats voted against him.
There is little question that those
who voted for him in 1900 will do so
again. Will the million democrats
who voted against him then support
him now? 1t is believed they will be
loyal this time.
In Bryan's favor is the fact that the
country is still suffering from the
panic which swept over the country in
October last. A party in power has
never been returned to power in the
presence of hard times. Idle men
usually hold the party in control of
| the government responsible for their
idleness. There are 100000 idle men
in Greater New York, $4,000 idle men
in Chicago and thousands out of en-
ployment in every city and industrial
center How will these idle men vote?
He who can answer that question can
pronounce the name of the next pres
| ident.
| 1t is gratifying to know that the
campaign will be a clean, impersonal
one. Mr.. Bryan and Judge Taft are
clean, able, high class men.

Bryan as a Leader.

For the third time the democratic
party has nominated William ]. Bryan
for the presidency. To have won this
honor in the face of the fact that he
has twice been defeated shows the re-
markable hold he has on his party
The press of the county inveighed
against his selection, the wealth and
corporation influence will be arrayed
against him. The convention took all
these facts into consideration and yet
selected him as the choice of a party
which in the least polls 100000
votes. From whence then comes
Bryan's power that he could force his
party to again make him its standard
bearer? 1t comes from the masses
the plain people.
Bryan is a remarkable man. He
has wonderful magnetic qualities. He
is the greatest orator in the world
His firm Christian character, his spot

pionship of the cause of the masses
his consistency and stubborn honesty
have made him the idol of millions.

national campaign against the

planned and is about to be begun by
the government bureau of insects 1t
will cover the entire country and in
its prosecution measures are to be
urged by which not only communities
but whole states will be enabled to
rid themselves of these deadly enc

In order to attain this end it is nee
and MISUNDERSTOOD methods, the ap
plication of which may be intrusted
to local boards of health. Where the
mosquito is concerned, however, it is
deemed advisable that there should
be general control by the state, be
cause of the fact that certain species
of these tuneful marauders are migra
tory and liable to appear suddenly in
multitudinous swarms in places fan
from their breeding areas, giving pro
found encouragement to local efforts
toward determination.
The house fly is strictly local; il
never goes far from the place where
it, was Matched. Furthermore, practi
cally all house flies are bred in stables
Hence it is simple matter to exter
inmate them absolutely.
There is no doubt that house flies

that some of them find their way into

extent of infection from this source
cannot be exactly known, but the
safest way is. to keep them out by the

Vain Hopes.


II wishes were horses,
Beggars might ride.
But in that event
Would they be satisfied?
No: hardly. Wed listen
To plaintive appeals
And wishes that wishes
Were automobiles.
If wishes were horses,
They'd have to be fed
And watered and curried
And furnished a shed,
And then when they trotted
Their very best pace
The auto would lead them
A mile in the race.
It's no more expensive,
The beggars might plead,
To wish when you're at 1t
For something with speed.
And while he was wishing
A touring machine
He might wish some gallons
or good gasoline.

But, then, they are not

When placed in the slot
Will conjure a trotter.

And SO the poor beggar
Continues to walk.
