WILL MR. BRYAN HOLD OUT?

WILL MIR. BRYAN HOLD OUT?
 Mir. Bryan evidently began his cam paign too early. He already shows signs of exhaustion and appears to be wabbling toward defeat. When, and even before he was nominated, we were told that he was not the Bryan of old-no longer the unthink- ing Boy Orator of the Platte, that that fanaticism of his earlier years had given place to a broad, good humored charity, that he was now a logician rather than an orator.
 It actually seemed that Mir. Bryan had been subjected to a ripening pro- cess at some time since he was last prominently before us and when the campaign began, there was a dispo- sition among sensible men of both parties to give him serious atten- tion-
 His discussions and comparisons of the two national platforms were calm and deliberate, and even many of his opponents admitted, fair from the democratic viewpoint. Those who were not ready to concede that he was honest, agreed that if he had not grown wiser he had at least become more subtle, and altogether, he was regarded as the most for midable antagonist of the republican party in sixteen years; more formid- able indeed than Cleveland seemed at the opening of the campaign of 1884 or in the beginning of the cam paign of 1892.
 Mr. Bryan's folly though began to manifest itself in his assumption of the guardianship of the Roosevelt policies which had already been plac- ed in the care of MT. Taft Then the cheap trickery of Bryan reap peared in the brief newspaper con- troversy between him and the repub- lican candidate. Then lastly, has come his assertion that the republi- can committee is receiving large sums from the corporations, notably from the steel trust.
 The committee and Mir. Taft an- nounced at the outset of the cam paign that, in compliance with a federal law, though probably not valid, no contributions from corpor- ations would be accepted. It was further promised that Tn the absence of d federal law requiring publicity of campaign contributions, the com mittee would give them publicity un- der the New York law. No cone has a right in the absence of information to the contrary, to believe that MT. Taft and the committee are not hon est Mir. Bryan offers no proof, only 1 his unsupported accusation, that the first pledge has already been vio- lated
 He could have no such proof; he ''hlh ll'l nave even ldlIly Itlldblt | information on that point, for if the republican national committee is dis honest such contributions as Mir Bryan describes would be offered | and received with the utmost se- crecy.
 Mir. Bryan has renewed his old time appeal to the ignorance and prejudices of voters and in doing so he is trampling upon the intelligence of voters who were inclined to give him respectful attention and probably support that he had never before re- ceived.
 Ignorance and prejudice have never contributed to the election of a pres ident of the United States There have been times when. in the begin ming of campaigns. ignorance was probably in the majority. but be- fore election day it has always been dissipated by the intelligence of the country.

An exchange laments the decay of chivaIry, a falling off of adoration for women. Such a lament we SUD- pose was voiced in the days of King Arthur.

KIRKPATRICK TAKES
SCALP OF STURGES
LATE CHIEFTAIN's FRIENDS SAY
HE WILL AGAIN WIN HIS OLD
TIME POSITION.

TUCSON, April 11.--Judge w. j.
Kirkpatrick is victor in the first round
of the contest which he is waging with
Colonel W. S. Sturges for Republican
national committeeman for Arizona.
He secured the Endorsement of the
Pima county delegation yesterday af-
ternoon at caucus which was held in
this city. The caucus was attended by
81 of the 81 delegates allotted to Pima
county. Discussion at the meeting was
qulte warm, but it was finally de-
cided to adopt the unit rule.
The friends of Judge Kirkpatrick
proved themselves in the majority of
the delegates present, as Ia of the 81
were in favor of indorsing Judge Kirk
patrick for national committeeman. The
remaining seven voted for Colonel
Sturges. With the unit rule prevail
ing, the solid vote of the Pima county
delegation will go for Judge Kirk
patrick.
Friends and supporters of Colonel
Sturges, however, declare that he is by
no means out of the running for this
/ honor. They state that although be
has lost Pima county, he will go to the
convention with the solid vote of the
northern counties and with sufficient
number from Cochise, Graham and ella
counties to insure his reelection.

EDDLEMAN MAY
SETTLE THE CLAIMS
BISBEE BANKER SAID TO BE AR
RANGING MATTERS TO PAY
DEBTS IN FULL.

1t has been rumored for couple of
| days that w. J. Eddleman, president
of the defunct First National bank,
which closed its doors two weeks ago,
intended making up whatever deficit
there might be in settling with depos.
itors in full, and that his trip to Globe
at the present time has to do with sue
an arrangement Up to the present time
no definite statement in regard to the
matter could be secured from anyone in
position to state authoritatively.
After the First National Bank closed
its doors two weeks ago on Tuesday
morning rumors were current in the city
to the effect that there was a large
deficit, which would make it impos-
sible for creditors to obtain the full
amounts of their claims. The arrest
of Eddlcman and Nolan in connection
with affairs of the bank ten days ago
also added to this fear.
Since the release of the two accused
bank officials from custody on bond
pending an examination of their eases
by the next federal grand jury, it is
stated that Eddleman has positively as
sured t. N. Lakin, receiver of the de-
funct institution, that all loans for
which he was personally responsible
and his liability on stock in the bank
would be protected. 1t is also stated
that his trip to Globe, where he is at
the present time, is in connection with
this matter When he returns tomor-
row morning he may publish some state
ment to the creditors of the institu.
ton.
IL is believed that if Eddleman will
be able to carry out what he is report
ed to have said he would do, all of
the creditors of the bank will be pro.
tected in full, although the bank will
probably not open again.
SO far as the receiver is concerned
no statement has been given out yet
concerning the condition of the insti-
tuition, as it has been necessary to gel
into communication with the various
correspondents in the principal cities of
