is Ma. BRIAN A DobeERi

Colonel Bryan is apparently much
wrought up over the charge, preferred
by Mr.. Taft, that he is a dodger and is
trying to get away from issues which
he has heretofore urged as paramount.
Mr.. Bryan denies the truth of the as
sertion. The record is made up and
leaves no oom for argument.
In 1895 MIR. Bryan made free silver
the paramount issue. declaring for the
free and unlimited coinage of silver
at the ratio of 16 to /, without wait
ing for the aid or consent of any other
nation ON earth" He drew the most
gruesome pictures of the calamities
that were to be visited upon the Amer
lean people II his financial vagaries
were not approved at the polls. He now
declares that the money question is
out of politics and he refuses to discuss
his free silver paramount. Is Mr.. Bryan
a dodger?
In 1900 Mr.. Bryan made the indie
~pendence of the Philippines the para
mount issue, with free silver as a side
issue, He demanded the immediate
recognition of the Philippines, protest
ing against government without con-
sent OF the governed" and declaring
that the American republic could not
exist half slave and half free" BY
an overwhelming majority the Ameri-
can people endorsed the republican
policy of retaining the Philippines until
the people of that archipelago are
capable Of self-government. Mr.. Bryan
now falls back on the technicality Of
declaring that Mr.. Taft a this year
admitted that the Philippine people
must ultimately have independence"
Mr.. Taft and the republican party have
never held any other attitude on that
question. Is Mr.. Bryan a dodger?
Il do not desire government owner
ship. / hope the railroads will permit
regulation" says Mr.. Bryan in re-
ferring to the railroad question. In
August. 1895, upon his return from
Europe. Mr.. Bryan declared, in a
speech in Madison Square Garden,
New York. that he was convinced that
railroad regulation must fail and that
the only relief from railroad abuses
was to be found In government owner
shin of the trunk lines and state owner
ship Of the branch lines, He reiterated
this statement in a letter to the Wall
Street Journal In May 1907. Now he
declares In favor Of railway regulation,
in spite Of his expressed and reiterated
conviction that, all attempts at regula-
ton must end in failure. Is Mr.. Bryan
a dOdger?
In his speech at Cooper Union hall,
New York, last APThg-4MT. Bryan m
Omaha daily bee., 1908-09-17

dorsed the action OF the southern states
In DISTINGUISHING the negro voters. He
now declares that he cannot discuss
the negro question because 1t was not
mentioned in the Denver platform. Is
Mr. Bryan a dodger7
At st, Louis i'm 1904, and again al
Chicago in 1905, Mr.. Bryan denounced
Roger sullivan as a "bushwhacker''
and declared that he wanted no en-
dorsement from any convention that
endorsed Sullivan. Now Sullivan is
Mr.. Bryan's confidential man and right
bower in Illinois politics. Is Mr. Bryan
a dodger?
Just before the Denver convention in
1908 Mr.. Bryan read Colonel Guffey
out of the party. Now he has ordered
the Bryanites of Pennsylvania to cease
making a fight on Guffey. Is Colonel
Bryan a dodger?
Mr.. Bryan has favored a 50-cent dol
lar, a packed supreme court, the turn
ing of the Filipinos adrift to become
the prey of foreign governments and
the government ownership of railroads.
Now he is running away from his rec
ord on each of those propositions. Is
Mr.. Bryan a dodger7
Omaha daily bee., 1908-09-17

In one of his recent speeches MIR.
Taft declared that the evils Of trusts
can be reformed "by men who under
stand the operation Of the statutes,
who know what the law means and
who understsnd its practical working
and effect"
Mr.. Taft is not claiming that he or
his party has any guaranteed. no-cure-
no-pay remedy for trust evils. He
understands that the trust problem and
the issues presented by It enter all
business. AFFECT all enterprises and have
a bearing upon the producer, manu-
facturer and consumer alike and that
all of these interests must be consid-
cred in the settlement of the question
in a legal and equitable tanner. It is
the aim of the republican party to pre-
vent monopoly through big corpora
tions without Affecting the individual
freedom of trade. Mr.. Taft under
stands the folly of MIR. Bryan's plan
for trust regulation and wisely refuses
to consider 1t seriously when, to his
trained judicial mind, It stands no
chance of being sustained by the courts.
Mr.. Taft has the strength, firmness,
purpose, ability and high character to
get the results desired by the people
in the matter of regulation without re-
sorting TO confiscation or clap trap
schemes to fool the people without
beneftlng them. Day by day the con-
viction Of the wisdom OF Mr.. Taft's
plan grows with the people and Mr.,
Bryan's captlous pleas have no weight
against il.

William Van Amberg Sullivan, a
former United States senator from
Mississippi, has recently figured as the
leader of a mob which lynched and
killed a negro at Oxford, Miss. Senator
Sullivan is making no effort to conceal
his participation in the crime, but, on
the ether hand, boasts of it. In an in
terview at his home he saidi
l led the mob which lynched Patton and
I'm proud of 1t. | directed every move
ment and | did everything / could TO sec
that he got 1ynched. He cut a woman's
throat, and as he was a negro I wanted
him lynched, of course.
/ saw his body dangling from a tree this
morning, and I'm glad of it.
When 1 heard of the horrible crime I
started to work Immediately to get a mob.
1 was at the Jail last night and heard
Judge Roane advise against Iynching. 1
got up Immediately afterward and urged
the moi to lynch Patton. l aroused the
men and directed them 20 storm the Jail.
1 had my revolver, but did not use 1t. ]
gave It to a deputy sheriff and told him
to "shoot Patton, and shoot to kill" He
used the revolver. and shot: 1 suppose the
Dullets from my gun were some or those
that killed the negro.
L don't care what investigation is made
or what are the consequences. 1 am will
ing to stand that. 1 will lead a mob in
such a case any time.
Sullivan has been a representative
In congress and a democratic senator
from the state which Mr.. Bryan de-
clares is his ideal. His boRstful, exult-
ant confession that he is a murderer
and has no fear of punishment proves
the utter generalization of public
sentiment in the community, where he
lives. Mr.. Sullivan may feel that he
can afford to commit murder and boast
of 1t in Mississippi, where the negro
question is settled" but he is apt to
increase the embarrassment Mr.. Bryan
is already feeling oyer his efforts to
capture the negro vote of the north, in
face Of conditions existing in the south.

TAFT TURNS ON BRYAN.
Peerless Defender Gets Jolt I'm the
Solar PIexus.

Solar PIexus.
Kansas City Times.
The most effective statement vet made
In the present. campaign is that of Mr..
Taft, in reply to Mr.. Bryan's criticism of
the Roosevelt letter relating to the repub-
lican nominee. This statement marks a
new turn in the canvass. 1t may be said
that Mr.. Taftohas finally struck his gait.
From this 5ltine on there will be some-
thing doing when Mr.. Taft discusses Mr..
Bryan.
There is no possibility that the present
campaigI' will be marked by unseemly per-
sonalities. Both candidates are men Of
clean characters. But in the absence Of
great dominating issues the personalities
of the two candidates. and especially their
records-the one as a performer and the
other as a theorist-will play an unusually
important part in the campaign.
Mr.. Bryan has forced the fighting from
the first, He has done his utmost to dis
credit the record and the pledges of the
republican candidate. He has gone out OF
his way to belittle what others nave said
Of the achievements of Mr.. Taft. Finally
Mr.. Taft has replied with a broadside that
will give Mr.. Bryan something to think
about for a few days.
All this was both interesting and iIIumin-
ating. The people like a spirited presiden-
tial canvass. They like good fighters. Mr..
Taft is a good fighter and he is an honest
fighter. In this particular encounter Mr..
Bryan, not Mr.. Taft, will be put on the
defensive.
Mr.. Taft's life has been full of labor and
accomplishment. He has a record that he
may confidently submit to the peonle.
Ordinarily a man who has no official rec
ord Is at an advantage In a political con-
test, provided he can make the people be-
iieve his promises. But the majority has
never believed in Mr.. Bryau's premises.
and the explosion and abandonment of his
several paramount issues OF the past are
not calculated to increase public conf
dence.
In this beginning of the real Taft-Bryan
contest the first thing that Mr.. Taft has
done has been to call the attention of the
spectators to Mr.. Bryan's fighting meth
eds. 1t is to be hoped that In the future
Mr.. Bryan will be as fair as Mr.. Taft has
been. The public likes an honest observ-
ance of the rules of the game.

Chauneey Depew got back from Europe
on Saturday with only 81 of his vacation
money left. 1t is likely, however, that he
has some fairly good collaterals upon which
he can make a raise.
Women in London broke the police lines
in their zeal to get near Winston Church

through coal holes into the church they
will equal the enterprise of New York.
Mrs. Mary e. Hart, who was we'll known
to many during the Worlds fair as the very
pleasant lady at the Alaska building, has
the distinction of being the first woman
to stake out a claim on a glacier. She is a
miner of experience and has worked with
a pick in her own mine. The claim She
has recently staked is at Muir glacier.
Governor Hughes sat in the grandstand
of the fair grounds at O~rangeburg, n. Y,
Wednesday and witnessed a trottlng race,
called THE Governors Special" arranged
in his honor. The stirring contest caused
the governor to rise from his seat as the
horses fought gamely in the homestretch
for victory, and ne was as enthusiastic as
any one.
Nobody was ever pictured so numerously
in the public press as Mr., Roosevelt, unless
II be Mr.. Bryan; yet here is what II all
comes to, as related by a New York World
reporter accompanying the Bryan cam
paign outfit at Cumberland, Nd: Mr..
Bryan was standing on the porch Of the
Queen City hotel this morning when a
sweet-faced lady stepped up 10 him and,
holding out her hand said: why. how
do you do Mr.. Roosevelt? l am so glad to
see you"
There's some mistake. said Mr.. Bryan,
smiling and shaking her hand. My name
Is Bryan"

The report of the securities issued
by the railroads and other industrial
corporations for the present year fur
nished assuring evidence of the conf
dence that is being felt in the indus
trial world of a speedy return to
normal business conditions throughout
the country. The debentures offered
may not represent the actual proof of
improved business conditions, but they
are eloquent in showing that those
who are in a position to know have
abundant faith in the future.
For the first eight months of the
year the issue of securities of all kinds
amounted to s1,O57,774,O0O an in
crease of about $91, 100000 over the
corresponding period of last year! In
the month Of August the showing was
still more gratifying, the issue of Sc
curities amounting to sci 100000, as
against s3S, Gas 900. in August of last
year. OF the securities issued In Au-
gust of the present year only $780,
WV WVlV III oIOth NV uAoh II
senting bonds and notes, while last
year practically all of the securities
issued consisted of stocks.
II was about this time last year that
the scarcity of money began to be felt
and the warnings were issued to take
in sail. Now there is every assurance
that money will be plentiful for all
legitimate investments and while no
pronounced business boom is expected
until after the election, the amount of
the securities issues and the readiness
with which they are being taken by
the investors furnish all needed proof
that capital is only waiting in a con-
sentative way and that it has no fear
of the future.

the tremendous losses by fire in the United
state. These losses are becoming so great as
to be appalling. They are so great that they
must be numbered among the large causes
of the panic of 1907. They are so great as
to constitute a bigger tax upon the busl-
ness OF the country than all OF the failures
of banks. They are so great as to he a
more serious evil than gambling. Among
the many wastes which are burdenins
American business, no other calls for more
immediate attention thar the fire loss.

THE PHILOSOPHY OF LOSING.

IdB hILOoOEhI UT LOOfNOs
In politics the mar who loses toe
often forgets that If he had won the
other fellow would have lost. Politics
is a game in which all the players can
not be winners and in which, as a rule.
there are several losers to every win
ner.
Our old friend, Edgar Howard, who
has just gone up against the check
book buzz-saw in the Third district, at
least has the philosophy of losing down
to a fine point and breaches 1t pretty
we'll, whether or not he puts it into
practice. This is what he says in the
cold, gray dawn of the morning after:
A defeated candidate makes an awful
mistake when he gets sore, He ought to
take his medicine of disappointment just
as smilingly as he does his sugar of vic
tory. Nobody loves a sore loser. Every
body admires the man who has a show of
happiness in his heart and a smile of cour-
age on his face even though he has been
shot all to pieces by the ballots. 1t is no
easy task for all the defeated to laugh at
defeat, but, at least. they can try to look
pleasant. Just think of the other fellows
happiness and then try to absorb some
of It.
The philosophy of losing rests on a
mind picture of how 1t would be If win
ner and loser were to exchange places.

Stony Point, around which were fought
many battles in the war for American in
dependence, is shortly to be adorned with
a triumphal arch. Tit historic battlefield
on the Hudson not far from Haverstraw
is now reserved as a state park and is en-
closed and guarded. II has been permitted
to remain all these years practically as
It was in the days when the nation was
young. The Daughters of the American
Revolution are TO erect the arch. The
structure will be of rough cut granite,
thirty feet wide and twenty-oight feet
high, while the span through which WIS.,
itors enter Will be twelve feet In width.
The sculptor is IL. X. Bush-Brown and the
builder Calvin Allison. over the archway
will be the inscription. Enter here with
reverent step, for this is sacred ground"
Stony Point in the war of more than a
century ago was fortified by the American
patriots. Sir Henry Clinton took 1t and he
i'm turn was dislodged by the attack of Gen
eral Wayne, known to fame as Mad An
thony."

Mr.. Rockefeller. of course, would
strongly d%isapprove of the procedure Of
the ex-salesman of the Standard Oil com
pany, who in his testimony before the fed
eral investigation commission told how he
could trim a wick to make either an un-
steady or a good light and how in COM
petltive trials he had used a short wick
on his W oil and a lens one on that Of
a rival company.
