THURSDAY, NOV. S, 1908.

ANOTHER great election has
come. and, gone and again Nigh,
has triumPhed over right and the
Democrats have gone down in
defeat before the long purse and
office holding prestage of the Re
publican Party. But though de
ieated no stigma can be attached
to our.leader. he has made a gal
liant fight and comes out of the
conflict with garments undehled
by the COrrupting influences of
colitical life. No man who has
been in politics, for the length of
time that Mr.. Bryan has, can dis
play a brighter escutheon than he
does, and nosman in America to-
day possesses the love and the
;dmiratiOn of :he masses OF
people in the same degree as the
great Commoner of Nebraska.
The Democratic Party have
made their fight this year on a
sound platform aud by clean me-
thods and have advocated reforms
which sooner or later will become
Wit al questions in the political and
economic affairs of our country.
The publicityeOf campaign funds
must inevitably become the pol
ICY of both parties and though the
Republican Party eiuded it on
this occasion they will be forced
IN the end to adopt it. The high
est authorities on finance in this
cou~try have expressed their ap-
proval of the bank guarantee of
deposits and their disapproyal OF
OF the Postal savings bank.
making it very probable that this
too will become a vital question
III years to come. All things be-
ing considered the Democrats
should not give up the hope Of
ultimately winning out and should
brace up and prepare to give
their ancient enemies a tussle for
the presidency in 1908.

virtually compels them to make
