Gov. Johnson on Bryan
washington Post.)

Gov. Johnson of Minnesota is
quoted by the New York Herald as
saying that William j. Bryan is a
''has BEEN so far as the Presidency
is concerned. His star reached its
zenith some time ago." said Governor
Johnson, in an interview at Omaha,
"and when his name goes before
the Denver convention he will be
looking for votes"
Gov. Johnson's attention was di-
rected to an editorial in a Bryan or
gan stating that the Pennsylvania del
egation would be instructed for Bryan
The Herald's dispatch quotes Gov
Johnson's reply as follows:
THAT statement is entirely I'M
true, and when the Pennsylvania dele
cation reaches Denver there will be
some surprises for the Nebraskan
The Democrats of the country have
apparently been loyal to Mr. Bryan
because there was no other candidate
in the field until recently. Now that
there appears to be a real contest il
is another proposition There is lit.
tie doubt in my mind that the Penn
sylvania delegation will vote will
New York, and that is a very fine
start. Don't you think so?
"Mr. Bryan was for several years
the Grand Old Man." of the Democra
tic party, and many consider him az
such yet, but how long his popularit!
will continue is a matter of conjec
ture. The signs of the times indicate
an ominous and rocky future for him

coming into Nebraska and saying
these things, but to a man up tree
they certainly appear truthful"
This dose of solid truth may be un.
palatable to the Bryan enthusiasts Of
the West, but it ought to do then
good. There is not the slightest
chance of Bryan receiving the support
of the big Eastern States, now thai
New York has declared against him
The developments are exactly what

That our American Forests abound In
plants which possess the most valuable
medicinal virtues is abundantly atteSted
by scores of the most eminent medical
writer's and teachers. Even the untu-
tored Indians had discovered the useful
ness of many native plants before the
advent of the white race This informa-
ton, impaired freely to the whites, led
the latter to continue investigations until
to-day we have a rich assortment of most
valuable American medicinal roots.
