claimed that Virginia, Alabama,
Georgia and Pennsylvania are ready
to follow suit.
New Jersey and Delaware are al
ready lined up for Judge Gray and
sentiment is rapidly crystalizing in
Ohio for delegation pledged to Judge
Harmon.
With conditions prevailing like
these it is hard to see how Bryan can
hope to win except with the fercest
kind of a struggle.
North Dakota holds it's convention
today and the outcome there will un-
questionably have an important bear
ing on the candidacy Of Gov. johnson.
Friends of his think he will win out,
but the reverse seems to be the most
reasonable view to take Of the situa-
ton. Unless we are greatly mistaken
it is case of the early bird catching
She worm, and in North Dakota Bry an
was the early bird.

NEW PICTURE OF SCHURZ.

He was German. He was an artist.
By nature doctrinaire, be had be-
come philosopher. He could never
wholly adjust himself to his environ
ment. He iectured Lincoln, and Lin
coin, perceiving his earnest truthful
ness and genuine qualities, forgave
him his impertinence, nor ceased to
regard him with the enduring affection
one might have for an ardent, aspir-
ing and lovable boy. he was repellant
to Grant, who could not and perhaps
did not desire to understand him. To
him the southerners were always the
red-faced, swash-buckling slavedrivers
he had fancied and pictured them in
the days of his abolition oratory.
More and more he lived in rut of his
own high and noble fancies, wise in
books and counsels, affectionate in
his relations with the few who enjoyed
his confidence, to the last most cap
tivating personality.
Though fastidious Schurzwas not in
tolerant. But he was very hard to
convince tenacious of his opinions
very courteous, but very insistent in
debate. He was a German; German
herr doctor; of music, of letters and
OF common law. During an intimacy
of more than thirty years, we scarcely
ever agreed about any public matter;
differing even about the civil service
and the tariff; but | admired him
hugely and loved him heartily Henry

The Safety Valve
Of Free Speech.

We can hear Of no law, state or ma
tional, by which Emma Goldman can
be prevented from speaking in Mime
apolis Some states penalize public
Indictment to riot, but Minnesota has
not yet found it needful to do SO.
Should the meeting become riotous
under an inhammatory harangue, it
might be dispersed. The speaker might
be arrested as disorderly person
and expelled from the city under a
suspended sentence, Nothing can be
done legally to prevent or dispense a
quiet and orderly meeting, no matter
how revolutionary the sentiments ex
pressed.
When anarchist meetings are dis
persed ia states with no more law on
che subject than here, it is done arbi-
trarily under the reserved power of
the authorities to- preserve the public
safety, with the consent<of she COM
munity. No ssocialscrisis exists here
to justify suchsi q :iawless proceeding,
though it may exist in Chicago.
Free speech sis the very foundation;
stone of american liberty; indeed, of
Anglo-Saxonl liberty. The social order
of the most advanced civilization
rests on the right Of the minority to
agitate for change of government, and
TO make the change by lawful means
when it grows to q majority.
London is the best policed city in
the world. Vet mob orators may as
sail all government and society in
Hyde park more freely than in Central
park, on penalty of dispersal of their
audience with clubs at the first hint of
disorder.
This freedom of speech is the safe
guard as we'll as the safety valve of
popular government. When a major
tty of American or English voters are
resolved On state socialism or even
anarchy, it will come and the Man on
Horseback will tighten his girths.
That knowledge keeps the danger
away.
We do not care to make this discus
sion personal to Emma Goldman, ex-
cept to say that the world of high
finance and corrupt politics contains
more inflammatory agitators to public
disorder than she.
Men who betray the trust of public
Office to buy and sell elections and
legislation make more anarchists in
one year than a brawling woman can
make in all her life.-Minneapolis

The Lesson Of
Thaw's Experience.

AAS
trial, Harry Thaw was a wreck-physi-
cal, moral and almost mental as we'll.
He was sallow, broken and cringing.
He lounged over two chairs, and hud-
died himself back in a lifeless mass of
bones and fesh-a mere caricature of
a man.
But when he appeared at his second
trial, after year and half in. jail,
he was another man. He walked
briskly, sat erect, and gave close and
intelligent attention to what went on
about him. His cheek had the glow
of health and his eyes were clear and
keen with animated attention.
What made the difference?
Not alone the imprisonment, though
that involved the rest; but when he
appeared at his first trial Thaw's con-
dition was the result of years of dissi-
patton, of fast living, late hours, ex-
pensive living, much drinking-of
dissipation of all kinds. His nerves
were gone, his mind was clouded, his
strength had vanished. He was the
mere shadow of the man he should
have been at his years.
The change that took place in him
shows what nature will do if you give
it chance. For year and half he
spent his time in prison. He kept
regular hours, because he had to. He
did not dissipate, because he could
not He took exercise, because it
offered change from the dull routine
of prison life.
This happened through no virtuous
resolution of Thaw's. If he had not
been put in prison he would probably
have continued the life that his in
herited wealth enabled him to live. He
had no aim in life except to lave a
good time, and his idea of a good
time was to spend his time and money
on dissipation. The inevitable result
was degeneration = moral, mental,
physical. Natures laws are inexor-
able; they are always enforced; they
can't be evaded or violated. Thaw's
condition when arrested was the penal
ty of his attempt to run counter to
those laws.
If nature Furnishes, it also rewards.
Itrewarded Thaw by giving his health.
back, even though he had earned that
kindness by no Intentional effort of
his own. He lived regularly, normal
| ly, wholesouely, because he was COM.
PEELED to. Yet nature recognized it
just the same, and paid him for it as
| it always does.
| The case of Thaw, sordid and un-
pleasant though it is, teaches power
full lesson for right living. Duluth
Herald
! The political developments of the
week have not been without their sur
prises.
| Among the republicans, to be sure,
everything has drifted as was expected
in the direction of Taft, but with the
democrats it is different.
Three weeks ago Bryan had cinch.
Today it isn't so certain.
| In New FORK the state central com
mittee by a vote of fifty to one declared
against instructions and asked for the
nomination of a man who could win.
Chairman Connors says that in the
opinion of the committee that means
Johnson.
In Rhode Island, which the Bryan
leaders counted on with the utmost
confidence, the state convention re-
fused to adopt resolution approving
of the Bryan candidacy and sent its
delegates to the Denver convention un-
instructed.
The Massachusetts, committee adopt
ed similar course and now it is
New Ulm review. (New Ulm, Brown County, Minn.) 1892-1961, 1908-03-25

There are those who have Zee
foolish enough TO believe that at the
psychological moment William Jen-
nings Bryan, he with the cinch that
nobody else can make let go, would
OF his own accord graciously with
draw and turn the nomination over to
Johnson. Such an act, there can be
no doubt, would electrify the nation
and put the party on the almost GER
tain way to victory, but the trouble
is that it wont be acted. Walter
Wellman says 1t wont and Wellman
ought to know.
Mr.. Bryan" he says. s'believes
be is to be the nominee of the Denver
convention.
"Mr. Bryan believes he will stand
a much better chance to win at the
polls than in either his first or second
battle.
"Mr. Bryan has no intention OF
stepping aside in favor of Gov. John
son or anybody else.
"Mr. Bryan would regard as an un-
necessary intrusion, almost as an af-
front, the candidacy of any other
Democrat before the Denver conven-
ton; and any other Democrat who
does urge his friends to press him as
candidate must not expect to have
the friendship of Mr.. Bryan IN the
years to come.
"Mr. Bryan is from now on going
to do good deal Of travelling about
the country looking after the interests
of the Nebraska candidate for the
presidency.
ssHe is not in any state of indiffer-
ence. He is not simply drifting along.
He wants that nomin alton, wants it
very much, and intends to get it. The
people who think Mr.. Bryan soft and
easy; who think he does not care very
much one way or the other, that he is
too proud to work for his own
success, and that if they only make
noise enough about their opposition
to him he will make star play
and step aside, may as we'll face the
truth first as last: Mr.. Bryan is out
for the nomination in dead earnest.
He means business. 1t is possible he
may be pushed aside, but he will do
no sidestepping.
