OLD SINNER FLooRED BRYAN

A FEW DAYS AGO in central In
diana, Mr.. Bryan declared at the top
of his magnificent voice that inasmuch
as the banker forced the borrowing
farmer to give security, it was only
right in turn that the banker give
security to the depositor.
Then the crowd cheered, but one
old sinner shouted out:
There is no law to compel one
farmer to go security for another at
the bank, MIR. Bryan, and it's not right
to pass law compelling one banker
to go security for another"
And then the crowd laughed.
This was one of the few times on
record when man in an audience got
the better of Mr.. Bryan, but the point
he scored was sound and Mr.. Bryan
had no answer. He was trying to
make them believe that a compulsory
law was not only right, but was valid.
It would be as unjust to make one
banker stand surety for another,
against his will, as it would be to force
one farmer by law to go on the note
of his neighbor. There is a glamour
about some of Mr.. Bryan's ideas, that
specifically appeal to some people
who do not know how tricky he is, but
when you study Mr.. Bryan, your senses

A number OF Lake county republic
cans have remarked of late. that ii
the breweries and the brewery saloons
become too bold on election day and
if the result of the brewery saloon
keepers attempt to control votes is
carried too far they will take advan-
tage of the local option measure which
the democrats themselves are advocat-
ing and work night and day with the
drys to put the brewery saloons out
of business. They say the saloons in
Lake county have not been i'll treated
at the hands of the republican party,
but If they are going to work as a
unit against the party there are enough
good republicans to make things in
teresting for them.

County Chairman Schaaf. who is busy
putting on the finishing touches for

is to have several more speeches before
the campaign is ended and will an
nounce them today.
The republicans in East Chicago had
meeting in the Polish district in
Kroupa's hall. last evening, which was
a great success. There were about 400

noticeable fact that all of the Poles
present cheered the speaker to the echo
and they all went away wearing Taft
buttons.
The report has reached the republi-
can ranks that every saloonkeeper in

Cincinnati. Oct. 26.-The Enquirer
yesterday published a forecast of the
presidential election result. The pa
per says:
Without making any positive predic-
ton and basing these conclusions on
the reports of correspondents connected
with them and two great western pa
pers with which they have collaborated,
the New York Herald and the En-
quirer, show that William H. Taft is
reasonably sure of $50 votes in the
electoral college. thirty eight more than
he needs for election. The reports of
trusted correspondents. on which this
estimate is based, have been carefully
checked by other reports from indie
pendent sources.
William J. Bryan is quite certain to
| receive 156 electoral votes. 81 votes are
doubtful. with a democratic tendency,
while 20 are doubtful and more than
| likely to go to the republicans. If Mr..
Bryan should succeed in carrying all
the doubtful states he would have 203
electoral votes-77 less than his repub-
lican competitor.

Evidence of the strictest adherence
to the tenets of his faith. even to the
following of the most ancient customs
of the fathers of the Franciscan order
was found upon the person of Father
Leo, slain at the altar of st. Elizabeth S
church in Denver Sunday morning by
Giuseppe Alto, in the shape of penance
chains consisting of a steel discipline
girdle and similar armlets. These
ringed bands are provided with sharp
hoops to pierce the flesh, and their like
has never before been seen in Denver.
None of Father Leos associates ever
had seen these instruments of self-tor-
ture, for they are not customarily worn
by members of religious orders in the
United States of the present day.
