clear that Florida is Overwhelmingly
for the nomination of Mr. Bryan, and
the present fight against senLIng a
solid Bryan delegation to Denver is
hard to understand. The ticket to be
voted upon in the third district on
June Is will stand as follows:
For three delegates state at large
For Bryan. Anti-Bryan-
b. o. Bowden. -. Max NJ. Browne
Chas. F. Eaton. A. C. Clewis
A. S. Mann. ....... r.. III. ShacklefOrd
For one delegate, Third district
For Bryan Anti-Bryan
Jno. T. G. Crawford. "A. C. Blount, Jr.
Probably some or possibly all or
these anti-Bryan delegates will say
that they are not opposed to MIR. Bry-
an, but that they do not care to
pledge themselves to him. No voter
should be misled by any such plea.
The great issue before the demo-
cratic party now is whether we shall
nominate Bryan or not nominate him.
His opponents in the party have made
that the issue. II candidate for
delegate does not know now whether
ne wants Mr.. Bryan or does not want
him, that candidate is a safe. man to
leave at home. No Bryan supporter
should take any chances on that kind
of a delegate Those who are not for
Mr.. Bryan can be pretty accurately
counted upon as being against him,
and the Democrats of F1or1da-bei1g
for Bryan-should see that none but
avowed Bryan men ara selected to
represent them in the national coun-
ellis os the party.

Sunday school teacher, was at times
soreiy perplexed how to answer the
questions put to her by some Of her
unusually bright pupils One day just
after she had finished telling the chill

man God created quiet reigned In the

denly up jumped little Rosie and In q
piping voice said, "Oh, teacher. you for

Embarrassed Mrs. L. looked up to the
ceiling and then TO the children for an

Betty's little hand raised above the
