Bryan and Guffey.

Several esteemed Republican con-
tempOrarieS, who are manifesting
well-understood anxiety because there
appears to be prospect of separat-
ing Colonel Guffey and the Donnelly-
Ryan outfit from the control of the
Pennsylvania Democratic organiza-
ton, are trying to deceive themselves
and their readers in discussing the
motives impelling Mr.. Bryan to openly
declare war On Guffey and his satel-
lites. At the recent primary elections
in Pennsylvania a majority of the
delegates elected to the Democratic
National Convention were men who
had announced in advance their ap-
prevail Of the Bryan candidacy. This
result was obtained against the pro-
test of ''The Record and other news
papers convinced that some other can
didate should be selected by the Dem
ocratic National Convention.
Following the primary election, land
with the fact undisputed that large
majority of the Democrats of the State
had declared for and elected delegates
who were committed to Bryan, Col
Guffey and his friends sought through
the Democratic State Convention tc
steal this Pennsylvania Endorsement
from the Nebraskan. 1t was a bush
whacking job, and it was a scandalous
effort to override the will of the Dem
ocratic voters of the State. 1.-THE
Record" which had made it's figh-

Yawping and Doing.

There cannot be unity now on
Cleveland's course of action among
those who divided on it. The time
is too soon. But there is unity of all
the right-minded, who are also the
broad-minded, on the faithfulness,
fearlessness and forcefulness of the
man, and on the surety of his place
and fame in the minds and hearts Of
his countrymen, for ages to come.
Others, a motley multitude, said in
finitely more than he on civil service
reform. He quietly did far more for
it. Reams in pages and acres in space
and nearly a century in time were COW
cred with language about the Monroe
doctrine. By a single act he made the
self-government of every nation on
this continent secure from Europe for
ever. Both political parties for de-
cades INDUCED in an illegitimate init
macy with silver and with masked re-
pudiation. By destroying the heresy
of an immoral parity between un-
equal metals, he set solvency and hon
esty forever as stars in the sky above
this Republic.

Some Figures in Prohibition.

In view of prohibitions being on
trial as never before, every bit of testi-
niony as to whether it actually pro-
hibits is of especial value. 1t is to the
South that students of the question
are looking now for light on this sub
ject. There the experiment is being
tried on a greater and greater scale.
Lately, the chief OF police of Atlanta.
Henry Jennings, has published some
interesting statistics of the results of
the first three months of prohibition
as compared with the same three
months of the year previous-Janu-
airy, February and March, 1907. There
was, he reports, no decrease in the
burglaries and thefts, but the total
number of arrests fell from SPIT to
2,010, a decrease of 3,267. Arrests for
disorderly conduct were cut in half,
and those of drunkenness were but
1913, as contrasted with f,293. Mr..
Jennings AYERS that this correctly in
dicates the great decrease in drunken
ness; and the result has been fewer
complaints of severe distress among
the poor and more cash for household
expenses. Altogether, his report is as
favorable, perhaps, as could be ex-
pected. Drunkenness is not,of course,
to be stamped out in day; it remains
to be seen whether conditions will i'm
prove or remain about the same. We
notice in the Southern newspapers
alluring advertisements of liquor
dealers in other States Offering to
send by express carefully selected
parcels of whiskey and brandy to any
one who will send the cash.

The Two National Conventions.

1t is an indisputable truth that the
delegates assembled at Chicago were
for the most part willing tools of the
Roosevelt Administration. In the
galleries of the convention at the
same time were gathered thousands
of well-fed officeholders from all re-
gions of the land, eager to make a
stampede for their chieftain For
nearly a year the Administration had
worked with it's widely extended Of
fetal apparatus in order to secure del
egates from the different States, Ter
ritories and colonies. This was es-
pecially the case with regard to ten
or twelve Southern States whose dele
gates to Chicago had no constitu-
encies, white or black, behind them
Add to the postmasters, the col
lectors of customs and internal rev.
enues and all the rest of the official
host, the representatives of the great
Trusts and monopolies, and there is
presented a political convention as
far removed as possible from genuine
sympathy with the masses of the
American people, Of such a body
the candidates and the platform are
the natural products. The head of the
ticket, a lifelong Dureaucrat, nomi-
mated by the orders of President
Roosevelt; his associate, a concession
to the stand-pat majority in Congress
and the platform curious mixture

TONS
Contrast for a moment the forces
that dominated the convention at Chic
ago with the convention at Denver
and the Democrats may claim with
pride that their national assembly is
true representative of the American
people, From the forbidding infiu-
ences that controlled the Republican
convention the Democratic party is
free. No DEGREES of the spoliatory
wealth that is found in the tariff
nourished Trusts and monopolies are
obeyed or even heard at Denver. Nc
bureaucracy with a Roosevelt at its
head had any share in making the Dem
ocratic nominations for President and
Vice President. Neither William J
Bryan nor any other of the disting-
uished Democrats whose names are
before the Denver convention exer-
cises any control over Government
patronage. None of them has the
money power behind him. The Trusts
that are despoiling the American PEG.

are the sworn enemies of all of them
AS for the political machines, Of

IMPORTANT RULING
JUDGE REFUSES TO DISMISS PRO-
 HIBITION CASES.
Judge Greene Says He VIII Wait Until the State Supreme Court Has Ruled On the
 Issue,

Birmingham, Nov. )- In the Criminal Court today. Judge Dan 4. Greene re fused to let 1O1 cases of vtu4ating the. prohibition law go of the docket on account of his ruling Thursday ID a case involving the valid ity of the raidsrsA warrants.
 Tn refusing to let the cases go off the dockW, Judge Greene said he was adhering to a time -honored rule. that whenever the validity of an act Is in question and the case goes to the Su- preme Court. to keep other cases on theA- docket untu the Supreme Court has ruled.
 It was an extraordinary proceeding in the Criminal Court room, and the place was hardly large enough to ac- commodate the defendants. jurors, at torneyc and others interested in the cases on the dockets. Many of the leading lawyers of the city were in court. .t
 Because of Judge Greene's ruling on
 Thur sday. the defendants were all con-
 ident that the cases would go off the
 docket. Every attorney present was
 anxious to go to trial when the court
 was declared open. The cases were all
 postponed indefinitely and Judge
 Greene announced that wheer defend
 ants had put up cash bonds the money
 would be refunded at once and the de-
 fendants released on their own recog- nizances Judge Greene's decision as to the raiders warrants Is that a man is not concealed when the purchaser of whiskey sees him and that 1t is not necessary to resort to raiders war rants and pick up every citizen who may be'found in building.
 All the pudges of the criminals courts here today gave out interviews in which they announced that there would | not be an indiscriminate issuing of raiders warrants in the future. They stated that they were not opposed to the prohibition law, but that there was a way to go after violators, and the raiders warrants were not proper except where a man was unknown and barricaded himself behind walls. or where he could not be gotten to. The decision just handed down has caused much comment on both sides of the question.
