An Early Title.

Still another of the early characterize
tons OF 1.-The Commoner'' has gone out
of fashion. He is no longer called the
Boy Orator Of the Platte One reason
is that he does not live on the Platte,
but on Salt creek. the suggestive name
by which the stream that flows through
Lincoln is known. A second cause of
the change is that it Is hard to refer
to a man who hasslost most OF his hair
as Juvenile
@ One more fond delusion regarding
the Nebraskan is likewise disappear
ing. He no longer is regarded as ex.
cessively radical. Bryan himself has
always insisted that he is d conserva-
tive and has often said that some day
his opponents would be forced to come
to him to save them from the actual
radicals they themselves had reared
up-not entirely a bad prophecy in the
light of some recent events, for most
OF the people of this country have not
only advanced to the ground occupied
by Bryan. but some of them have gone
far beyond him.
There is one charge that the real
radicals make against Mr.. Bryan with
some consistency-that. despite his
great will power aud undoubted cour-
age he has proved vacillating. They
aver, for example, that he changed
front on his support OF Parker and on
the government ownership of rail
roads. They say he has had too many
paramount issues, only to cast them
aside when they appeared unpopular.
LIS this the Achilles heel that will prove
his ultimate undoing?

Bryan's. Remedy Scored.

Mr. Roosevelt and the Republican
administration have directed their at
tention to prosecuting the exact evil,
which is the attempt OF the trusts to
monopolize Mr.. Bryan. on the other
hand, proposes TO take steps which
will destroy the entire business. He
proposes that we shall abolish the tar
IF on what are called trust-made ar
ticles If you are going to take off the
tariff on trust-made articles, yom are
going TO destroy the trusts all night
there will be no difficulty about that,
and you are going to throw out of en-
ployment the millions of men engaged
as wage-earners in those great busi-
nesses, and you are also going TO de-
stroy the independent competitors of
the trusts. for they are just as de-
pendent on the tariff-indeed, more
so-than the trusts themselves. In
)ther words, the proposition is like
burning down the house, as the Chin
nnan did to get roast pig"

ARGUMENT FOR
THE FARMERS
FARM LANDS AND PRODUCTS
DOUBLED IN PRICES IN IL
YEARS-W HY THEY
SHOULD VOTE THE
REPUBLICAN
TICKET.

The farmers of the country are the
most favored class of all our people
During the last twelve years the value
of their land and the value of their
products have doubled. No such rec
ord is made in any other business in
the world. And while the prices of
their products have doubled tire cost
nj Ihe things they buy is no more
1han il 1896. The markets will show
that groceries (such as the farmer
buys), dry goods, clothing and agri-
cultural implements are no higher
now than twelve years ago And
while statistics are not at hand show
ing the prices OF farm land, yet every
owner of a farm knows that he can
get twice as much for his farm now as
during the last fatal administration of
the Democratic party But when it

the statistics are easily at hand Be
low will be found the quotations on
farm products as found in the Indi-
annapolis Journal of October 5, 1896,
and in the Indianapolis News of Oct
), 1908. In each column we give the
top prices on each article Let every
farmer read and study these prices
before casting his ballot in November.
The prices of 1896 were the result of
Jour years of free trade, incompetent

SEE FOE IN MARSHALL.
Teachers of State Fear Democratic
Candidate for Governor Would
Repeal Minimum Law.

When Thomas r. Marshall, Demo
cratic candidate for Governor, aivo-
Gated the repeal of the teachers min
imum wage law in speeches recently
ne apparently struck an unpopular
note with 1000 VI more school teach
ers of half dozen southern counties.
An effort to corrsf the false impress
sion which Mr. Marshall left in the
minds of the people of the counties
will be made.
Solomon H. Esarey, assistant re-
porter of the Supreme court, who was
formerly a school teacher in Perry
county. will visit his old home next
week and will address a number OF
Republican meetings. Mr.. Esarey is
not working under the direct auspices
of the state committee, but knowing
what a hardship the repeal of the law
would work on school teachers, he
has decided to take a lrand in undo
ing what harm Marshall has done.
Men who are now teaching school
will also aid in the work.
The teachers wage law provides
for a minimum per diem 81 larry of two
and one-hah times the general aver
age gained at the license examination.
The repeal of the law would mean a
restoration of the authority formerly
held by township trustees to FIX teach
ers' salaries, which under the old sys-
tenn were as low as $1.25 day. Some
of the counties which would be at
fected if the law were repealed are
Perry, Crawford, Harrison, Orange,
Washington, Clark, Floyd, Scott, JEFF
ferson and Jennings The trustees in
practically all other counties have fix
cd a wage scale that conforms with
the minimum law, and it is likely, it is
said, that the teachers in other coun-
ties would not suffer by the repeal
Mr. Marshall is quoted as having
said that an effort TO have the teachers
wage law repealed would be one of
his first official acts if ne should be
elected Governor.

BRYAN ENEMY OF
PENSION SYSTEM
VETERANS RE- EWING OF
MONEY FROM GOVERN
MENT is DENOUNCED
BY HIM-TALK IN
CONGRESS IN
1892.

Another ghost from the incomplete
ly buried past OF William ]. BRYAN
rose to confront and menace him on
last Saturday. This time it was his
public record on the question of per-
sions. By this disclosure he is shown
as hostile to the remnant of the Grand
Army of the Republic; as doubter of
both the patriotism and the honesty of
its members, and as an open wisher
for the speedy disappearance of the
old soldiers from the soil they once
defended.
These opinions were expressed by
him in 1892, before he had learned
the wisdom OF more indefinite speech,
and were delivered TO congress itself.
On the next day they appeared credit
ed to him in the Omaha World err
aid, the paper with which he was po-
litically and edrtorially connected.
THE next session of congress-" he
said in this speech, will have to
wrestle with one deficiency of $780,

year must not be less than $15O,OOO,-
600 1t is therefore easy arithmetic
10 perceive that the-appropriation that
congress must make aggregates no,
less than $1s6.OOO,OOo.
This tremendous sum. which would
in itself be enough to run a reasonable
government is held UP and despoiled
OF. 1T is not an honest debt, and "a
large proportion of it is not debt a,
all. because it was never earned by
any act OF patriotism or heroic SER
vice. The government is held up and
despoiled of no mean portion OF this.
and it seems helpless to defend itself
One cannot help being curious 10
know how many more years it will
take to exhaust the generation which
feels itself injured by the war. Ii is
safe to say that never did generation
display such remarkable longevity"
1t was pointed out Saturday, as
soon as the ghost made its public ap-
pearance, that Mr.. Bryan, by the an
alysis of the letter, was shown to have
held in the earli,r days if not in the
present, the belief that a country owes
no debt either OF gratitude or money
to its defenders in time OF peril
Worst of all, however, appeared his
slurs upon the honor of the veterans.
APP arently he made no distinctions.

self to the single Interpretation that
he regarded the entire debt as dis
honorable" To- the Bryan OF 1892

Myron Chase Republican Candidate
for Commissioner First District.
(Fronl the Plymouth Republican OF
August 8, 1900

(Fronl the Plymouth Republican OF
August 8, 1900
The trustees have been settling with
the Commissioners this week, and so
far as we have heard, all have gotten
along we'll Without any desire to cast
reflections on any OF them we are
constrained to- remark, however, that
the record left by Myron Chase, of
Polk, is especially enviable. Mr.
Chase has been complimented by the
Auditor and the Commissioners for
his clear and perfect reports, and he
turns over the Office to Mr.. Kyle, his
successor, without the least stain upon
his record. Few can say this, for in
honorably endeavoring to suit every
body it is very fortunate person
who does not offend some one, but
Mr.. Chase has seemingly been that
fortunate individual He has admin
istered his office IN the most pleasing
and gentlemaniy manner, and has
more friends or going out of office
than he thought he possessed when
he went in. He turned over a balance
of nearly s25OO.OO to his successor
and he leaves the roads, schools, and
general affairs of the Township in the
very best of shape
Mr.. Chase was elected Trustee of
Polk township IN 1886 and again in
1888. The township was then Dem
ocratfc and for Republican to be
twice elected for trustee in that town
ship should be sufficient evidence that
he is the proper man to elect as
county commissioner.

A PERIOD OF ANXIETY.

Two weeks from today the agony
will be over and we will know who
the next President will be. However,
none of us need be so detected by, the
verdict as to lose hope The Republic
will pull through all right, no matter
whom the voters choose. The worst
that can possibly befall as we see it,
would be the unsettled business con-
dition and the check to the general re-
vival, that would ensue If Nj. Bryan
were elected. but eventually things
would come out all right The bust
ness interests distrust Mr.. Bryan be
cause he is so erratic, and from No
vember TO March 4th there would be
a period of waiting and anxiety; and
then after that date when he selects
his cabinet and began tine practice OF
his policy the public would continue
waiting until it saw the effect But
the solid. Substantial. old line gold
Democrats, who are for him this year
would have some influence in keeping
down anything too Eighty and operate
as balance wheel, as IT were. For
this reason the country would sur
vive, and though We might have to go
through a period OF depression, we
may be sure that things would bright

HEALTH BOARD ISSUES WARNING
ON THE HANDLING OF MILK

A warning against the indiscrimin-
ate handling of milk by housewives
and carelessness in feeding it TO babies
has been made by the Board of Health
in a circular issued by DR.. Eugene
Buehler ON the care of milk in the
home.
Attention is called to the fact that
while milk is an excellent food, bad
milk is one of the most dangerous
foods possible, and is responsible for
numerous ills. Mothers are also ad-
vised that good milk is the only prop
er food for babies under one year of
age, where they can not get natural
nourishment The circular states that
the chief means by which milk is often
made dangerous are as follows:

SAM SMALL'S ADVICE.

Rev. Samuel Small of Georgia, ad-
dressed a very small audience at the
court house yard Thursday afternoon
and all the Democratic leaders are
rejoicing because there were not more
than fifty Democrats farmers present
Ii all the Democrats OF Marshall
county had heard Small's speech and
had followed his advice the county
would give Taft three thousand ma
jorhy Small said that every voter of
Marshall county who wanted con-
tinuation of the policies of the past
twelve years and believed that THESE
were prosperous times should vote for
Taft, but every voter that wanted a
change should vote for William Jen-
nings Bryan. 1t IS we'll known that
nine-tenths of the Democratic farmers
of Marshall county are satisfied with
present conditions. consequently If
they take Sam Smalps advice, they
will vote for Taft. Mr.. Small says
that the old Republican party was the
grandest party that ever had an exis-
tence and its leaders were the best
men the world ever produced, but he
thinks that the party has degenerated
sadly under the administrations of
Mckinley and Roosevelt. He was es-
pecla1ly severe on Roosevelt and
Roosevelt's policies. He is an enter
tanning speaker but like all men of his
class he lacks judgment, presents
false statistics and thinks ridicule is
argument.

ing the COWS, dirty mixers and dirty
milk vessels.
Failure to cool the milk promptly
and keep it cold until used
Bad milk, so far as danger to health
is concerned, is dirty milk, or warm,
stale milk.
Dr. Buehler advises that vessels
used for milk should be thoroughly
cleansed as soon as empty, not using
soap. If milk is delivered in sealed
bottles, he advises that it should not
be left where the heat of the sun will
reach it before being taken into the
house.
The circular, in part, is as follows
''As soon as you have emptied a
bottle, wash it out carefully. Do not
return to your milSman bottles con-
tanning stale milk
"If your milkman does not deliver
his milk in bottles, it is best to have
him deliver directly to you or your
servant, and you should see that it is
put on ice Immediately and kept cold.
The practice OF putting out an un-
covered pitcher or other vessel for
milk the night before. or at any time,
can not be too strongly condemned"
Where bottles are not used, glass
Jars with clamp tops are advocated
not using the rubber ring that usually
accompanies such jars. Mothers are
also advised not to purchase milk for
babies from grocery stores. as it is
often kept over from one day to an
other, and is frequently kept in I'M
covered utensils in an ice box with
meats and vegetables
