BRYAN'S HOPE

"Mr. Bryan appears to believe ron
fidently that he will be elected this
year" says the Kansas City Star.
There is no doubt that the republican
congress has done II great deal to
strengthen him in that conviction"
And for once the Star is ut least partly
right. But that newspaper cannot be
expected TO tell the whole truth, even
though it tells q fraction of it.
Not only has the republican congress
done II great deal to insure the election
of Mr.. Bryan, hut the republican preSi-
dent seems to have made Mr.. Bryan's
success an absolute certainty.
If there has been one factor in our
recent political life more productive of
the democratic successes which have
come and which are yet to be accom-.
plished than any other. it is the Big
Stick" and the my policies" of
Theodore Roosevelt. 1t is possible that
the folly of the republican congress
might have been overcome by clever
g~eneralship on the part Of the party
leaders; but with Roosevelt assailing the
business interests like Il mailman, de-
stroying confidence and creating dis
trust, sending railways into the hands
of receivers and closing factories and
shops, republican success i'll the Novem-
Der elections would appear to I've an
utter impOssibility.
The indictment against congress is
that, like other republican bodies, it has
been wasteful and extravagant and that
when it was not dominated by Theodore
Roosevelt, it was doing the bidding of
Joseph q. Cannon. Its sins are those
of both omission and commission, but
beside those of Theodore Roosevelt, the
mailman and the wrccker. they pale
into insignificance. Where congress
interposcd II stone in the pathway of
prosperity, Roosevelt diggcd a ditch.
1t is true that Mr.. Bryan expects to
be elected. 1t is equally true that the
firm foundation for that hope was begun
by congress and completed by THEODORE
Roosevelt. Again it is true that if the
people of the United States take council
Of their better Judgment, Mr.. Bryan's
hopes and expectations will be realized
in NOvembcr.-Post Kansas City.

Rawhide Looks Like Thirty Gents

VI. l.. Tadish returned Wednesday
from Rawhidc, where he and associates
have been leasing. The lease which he
had gave little promise of proving pro-
fitable, however. and it has been
abandoned.
Mr.. Tadish has the same story to tell
that the rest of the returning pilgrims

cations are not encouraging. There is

doing in any line in the new camp.
According to the roster of the RawhidC

BARTLETT MAKES GOOD

Henry NJ. Rives, private secretary to
George 4. Bartlett, returned to Tonopah
yesterday after a six months absence i'll
Washington, says the Tonopah Bonanza
III discussing his experiences in Wash
!ngton, he referred frequently to Mr..
Bartlctt's remarkable success as u new
member of the house. The fact that he
secured appointments on three import.
ant committees early in the session,
being that of mines and mining, irriga,
roads, the most important committees
dealing with Western interests. speaks
eloquently of Mr.. Bartlett's.. standing
among his colleagues. His efforts and
complete success in putting the mining
bureau bill through the lower branch
of congress was commended very
highly and received most favorable
editorial comment i'm the Washington
Times and other eastern papers. Mr..
Bartlett is probably the only new
member who has been SO hOnOred for
many years and certainly during the
present session. .
Mr.. Bartlctt's popularity among his
colleagues. both democrat and rcpub'
licans, is we'll known and for that rca'
son, coupled with his carncstncss and
keen desire to serve the best interests of
his state. has rendered it easy for him
to secure support for those asure of
interest to Nevada. This was evidenced
by the in which he secured the
appropriation for the Carson Indian
school, after the item had been stricken
