OUTSIDE LNT,ERFEREN

The attitude toward William j. Bryan OF
certain daily newspapers published in east.
ern cities is extremely significant. While
claiming to be independent 10 politics and
generally supporting every interest OF the
Republican party and never betraying the
slightest sympathy with anything Demo-
cratic, they vet assume TO speak for the
Democratic party in most dogmatic fash
ion regarding the nomination OF it's candi.
date for President and the shaping of its
platform of principles, almost as If 1t were
solely an affair Of their own. These papers
never let pass an opportunity to attempt to
cast discredit upon MIR. Bryan and to de-
nounce the policies for which he stands and
for which his party stands with him. Facts
are distorted, innuendoes are far-fetched,
and even brazen falsehoods are invented for
the purpose Of finding occasion to throw
mud at the great Democratic leader. While
day in and day out proclaiming that Mr..
Bryan has no earthly chance Of ever be-
coming President of the United States, and
while trying to appear hilarious over their
alleged foregone conclusion, they yet con.
tInue eVerlastingiy to hammer at the man
and to inveigh against his nomination for
the presidency. II they know he cannot
be elected and are happy in that knowledge,
why don't they let up on him aud leave
him 10 his fate?
The course these papers are pursuing can
be explained only 10 this way: They be-
lieve Mr.. Bryan 10 be true TO his colors,
true to the best interests OF the American
people; ia case Of bis election. they know
that the special and selfish interests of the
class they represent would not retain the
advantages it now enjoys. and they really
lear that be will be elected.
Their opposition to Mr.. Bryan is the
trongest kind Of reason why he should be
nominated and elected; 1t is expert testi- |
pony from . very shrewd source that Mr.. |
Ryan, as President, would be true TO the

REPUBLIOAN ROASTING.

When 1t is considered that the Republi-
can platform was inspired, II not actually
written, at the White House, the fulsome
praise of President Roosevelt In that docu.
ment Is perhaps not TO be wondered at
"Pride cometh before fall" and che that
exalteth himself shall be abAsed." Nor does
the Republican party itself appear bashful
in telling of the deeds II says II has accom-
plished, but that was TO be expected, for
claiming everything in sight is an old game
Of the Republican managers that has lost
nothing since such modern players as the
President have handled the lay out.
The platform claims that the Republican
party developed the industries and re-
sources of the country" but the fact is that
long before the birth OF the Republican par.
ty there was much more development, con-
sidering the population, than has ever &C.
Cured since. No party can develop the
Industries and resources of the country
The sweat Of the brow OF labor is all that
can accomplish that, and the pioneers who,
In spite of the greatest obstacles, developed
the West, and indeed every State In the
Union, received but little II any aid even
from the government they created. They
helped themselves and appropriated the
riches that nature had provided and looked
to no party for aid.
The policies OF the Republican party
have developed and lostered trusts and COM
bInations of industries" and such policies
are still protecting those predatory indus
trial corporations in plundering the people.
1t must be doubted II any sensible voters
will regard the tariff that protects the trusts,
which have vastly increased the cost Of Nv
ing, as help TO them. The tariff helped TO
develop" panic more disastrous than any
that preceded 1t, and the effects of which
ere still so disastrous that wages are falling
and the business Of the country is one fourth
less than II should be, or would be, II sane
policies prevailed.
The very fact that this boastful platform
admits the necessity Of Immediately" re-
vising Its most cherished policy of protec.
tionism, shows that instead OF having de.
veloped the Industries Of the country II has
In TACT retarded them.
Who but the favored few have benefited
by the policies Of the Republican partYP

NHE OBJECT of these suits 10 TO obt sin a

day of October, 1893, one Robert Young ne
came the owner In fec simple Of u tract of land
including the above described property and
that subsequently,, by deed dated March 8,
1889, certain parties recitlng themselves TO
be the widow and heirs at law Of said Robert
Young purported TO convey TO one Thomas
N Wilson the above described property. but
Of the said heirs at law James X. Young
neither signs nor acknowledges said deed
and William s. Young fails to acknowledge,
although he signs the same.
That no conveyance Of their interest nor
any disposition thereof by will or otherwise
has ever been made by either the said James
Il. or William S. Young, 80 far as the records
for Montgomery county disclose. That it is
unknown whether the said James K or
William S. Young are living or dead and
that at the time OF the execution OF said deed
they were non. residents OF the State Of Mary
land.
That the title to all of the property de.
scribed in said bills OF complaint, except lots
twenty-five (26) to thirty zone (3l), in block
twelve (l2), in Sarah K. Brashears' subdivis.
ion of land adjoining Takoma Park, is now
vested in Virginia Barclay, AMI that said
lots twenty-five (2b) TO thirty-oEe (3l) are
now vested in Francis s Larkin and Anna
A. LArkin. his wife, as joint tenants.
That the failure of said James X. Young
and William 8. Young to properly ioin IN
the above mentioned deed TO Thomas N. Will
son casts cloud upon the title to the prop
erty described in the bills of complaint led
herein, which the compliments desire to have
removed AMI the title completed and per-
fected.
II Is, therefore, this 9th day of June, A
ID. 1908, by the Circuit Court for Monte omery
county, Maryland, in equity, ordered that

against the promotion Of special advantage
for the benefit OF favored few.
These newspapers and their following care
nothing for the success OF the Democratic
party; II they actually ielt sure of Mr..
Bryan's defeat at the election, they would
let him alone, or perhaps be advocating his
denomination. The same is true of regular
Republican papers. The attacks upon him
by both the former and the latter merely
voice their fears of his election In November
The Democratic Presidential nominating
