j. w. Mahon received a letter from
Chester Palmer, the deaf muGe who
worked the G. e Mahon farm at Iona,
and who departed about two days after
~disposing of what grain and chattels he
could, and left about 25 head of stock
without feed or water or anyone to take
care of them. His letter was dated
Iona, Feb. "a, and mailed at st. Paul,
Feb. 81. He states in the letter that he
intends to end his life later, rather than
to encounter this bitter world; but it is
most likely he has changed his mind
and is running a bluff. Mr.. Mahon
went to Iona yesterday to list up the
stock and machinery, which ne will sell
at public auction about the end of the
month. Watch for the bills and the

BRYAN SAYS PARTY
MUST CONTINUE
ITS FIGHT
[By Associated Press. ]

Uniontown. Pa, Dec. 22-With
"a battle over-the war begun" as
a text VIM. ]. Bryan last night de
clared that the democratic party must
continue its fight for reforms and
said he would not give up the prin-
ciples for which he has fought Mr.
Bryan spoke at a Dollar Dinner"
given by prominent democrats of the
coke regions. following the delivery
of his lecture on THE Prince of
Peace for the benefit of the Union
town hospital.
Mr.. Bryan in his political address
said that the republican party would
not meet the expectations of the peo-
pie and that the voters would find
relief only in the application of demo-
cratic principles.
Concerning his continued leader
ship of the democratic party. Mr..
Bryan said that the leadership had
come to him without effort on his
own part. and as long as the party
wanted him to continue such leader
ship he did not feel that he could re-
linquish il at the behest of those who
might be personally interested by
such action upon his part.
Mr.. Bryan said Mr. Taft had been
elected through a combination of
financial, commercial and industrial
interests of the country and he
would rather remain private citizen
than to be president and subservient
to those interests" as Mr. Taft must
be under the conditions that elected
him. He declared President Roose-
welt had degraded his high office by
making II the football of party poll
tics during the recent campaign.
