ssBuxhwhacl<ers.''

Mobile Register.
 Mir, Bryan characterizes as Flush : whackers'' those who seek to go to conventions without instructions, and declares that his two defeats were brought about by foes inside the party. Now, that depends. If a convention is for the specific purpose of nominating a certain man for office, all persons who have any other idea than to vote for that man are ''bushwhackers,"a and should be excluded; and it must be conceded that in MT, Bryan's case he has the right to demand that the bush : whackers be kept out of his conven- tion. In the old times when a conven- tion was a deliberatfve body. called to defipe and declare rarty principles and than to discover and select a man to represent those principles, individual ism was much desired. so that the real sense of the convention could be as- certained. That time has passed, how ever. as far as respects the Democratic party.

 The Montgomery Advertiser yester- day printed a cartoon on Governor Conner that fits in a story we heard not long ago of how the Governor is cons ducting his educational campaign. We did not print the story, because it came too straight and might cause trouble, but we did proceed to say. that Gov ernor Conner was campaigning for of- flee, which remark caused the tut-tut editor of The Selma Times to indulge in what the phonetic spoilers would call 'rawcus latter. The cartoon gives four pictures: Governor Conner smil- ing benevolently upon the shining morning faces" of the country school children. and saying, T am glad to see the smiling faces" Scene 2: ''The ship of stateis sailing smoothly" The youngsters take this as innoeuous. Scene 3. "But the RAILROADS" Sud- den exit of alarmed children through windows and doors. Scene 4 repre- sents the rest of the explosion and Is labeled "Etc."

BRYAN AND THE PRESIDENCY.

The time has come. in view of the practical certainty of his nomination and of the discord in the Republican party. to give serious consideration to the possibilities of Mir. Bryan's elee- ton. A good many of us have been a possibility of his election, but the conditions have changed nightly since our estimates of Bryan's chances were made and we may be too heavily tnnu- ls96-1904 period. This Is 1908 ana Theodore Roosevelt has been cutting his wide swath and the field is very different from what 1t used to be. The ing what may happen; Bryan's, hour Post.
 candidate. In positive following he IS 1896 or 1900. Negatively. the proba abili- ties are that he Is considerably strong CT, in the sense that there is less alarm among his natural opponents over what might happen if he were elected. Quite a body of men, ordinarily contribute to a Republican campaign fund, have ment that they would rather see him battling against a Republican Senate than MT. Roosevelt, for example. dtc- bers of Republicans at the other ex- treme of the party array would rather support Bryan than a Republican ''re- Aetlonary.' The Republican leaders will not have a light task In closing up the ranks and arranging a solid front after the nominat:ons-- Philadelphia Public Leager.
 
 Another feature of the situation that is favorable to MT. Bryan's. chances of election is that when in office ne will not have free hand to overturn and destroy. even should he incline to such course. The Republican Senate will serves as a brake upon the speed with which he may seek to run the machine It is, as The Courier Journal says. prob able that the conservative people will rather trust to Bryan under such cor ditions Chan to Roosevelt. whose Pres dency has been productive of so many innova4saA3.-Mobile Register.

The farmer Is liable to forget his
bird friends. | wish to tell some
of my farmer friends what | have done
this spring, in regard to our quails.
When our assessor came around |
gave in some quails, as well as do
nestle fowls for taxation, as | knew
about how many we had on our farm
when winter was over. Some will say
that you could not tell how many
birds you have, because they will be
cn your farm one day, and on yoIr
reighbor's the next. While that Is
true, do not our domestic fowls go
over on our neighbor's place, also,
II you give them opportunity to do
soi Which most people do that |
know of. But do they not come back
home every evening to roost? 1t is
the same with the quail, and he will
roost on the farm where he was bred
and hatched, providing he is unmolest-
ed by hunters, hawks, etc. If you
were to chase your domestic fowls
with dog and gun one-tenth as much
as you do the poor little quail, In the
fall Of the year, do you think that
there would be many chickens on the
roost In your chicken house at night?
The writer has known coveys that
after being chased and shot at all
day. would be whlstling the call just
at dusk, and after getting back to-
gether would fly to roost.
think that anything that is MS
valuable as the quail and stays with
you through such circumstances
should be protected better than most
of our farmers are doing.-J. II. T., ir
the Indiana Farmer.
