SO hopeful Of prosperity for the cot
ton mills OF New England Is Eugene
N. Foss that he is going ahead with
his plans for mammoth cotton mill
in East Boston.
"The plans are now being drawn"
said Mr. Foss The plant contemplate
ed is to have $50 900 spindles and en-
ploy 5000 people. We shall start, how
ever with $4,000 spindles and 1000 en-
ployes. The outlook for the cotton
business IL unusually good. for, owing
to the big strike at Manchester, Eng,
the surplus OF goods has been pretty
well cleaned out.

continued Mr.. Foss, though | do not

boom for "A year yet; tariff revision Is

expressed the opinion that the cotton
mills OF New England were entering
upon prosperous period.

johnson Has No Chance.

Col. Wattserson has deserted John
son and is now a loyal supporter of
Bryan. He has not only deserted
Johnson, but he has burnt the
bridges behind him. Col. Watterson
says Bryan is the man to nominate
as the time has passed for some
one else" and with an enthusiasm
that has always led Mr.. Watterson
to follow the democratic standard
bearer he pledges his support to the
Nebraskan. Mr.. Watterson recalls
his effort to place before the people
"some nv else" and reviewing the
withdrawal of all the talked-of-ca a
didatcs, he says, why, then right
out of the mouth of Wall street.

SON." OF Johnson's chances Mr..
Watterson has this to say:
What chance would johnson
have Owe the dead body Of Bry-
an? What chance would john
son have carrying a Wall street
tag? What chance would John
son have using the undemocra-
tic two thirds rule to defeat the
will of the majority, and that at
the behest of the east defying
the west and working thesouth?
The thought is preposterOus.'
Continuing his diagnosis of the
national situation and rcverting
back to the original fact that the
great majority Of democrats want
Bryan, MIR. W~atterson continues:
The time has passed for some
one else MIR. Bryan retained the
field; it is too late for some one else
the conditions what they are; and |
confess that | am in sympathy with
Mr.. Bryan in refusing TO be ruled
of the track by q group Of New

are, to say the least of them, suspi-
ious, which will support no ticket
except n framed by themselves,
and which do not agree with one an
Other touching the ticket TO be nam

may not be, Mr.. Bryan has his

that the Democrats would win should

Willing to Make a CHANGE.

Speaking of the reasons why the
country is tired of the present ad-
ministration, and is willing to make
a change, Mr.. Watterson says:
but among democrats who know
why they arc democrats there ought
to be other and higher considera-
tons; ONE arrest the break-neck
speed on the highway towards the
Capitalization Of power; some real
and not spurious purpose towards
tariff reform; some sure separation
Of the politics Of the country from
it's partisanship with high finance
and the high financiers; some break
ing up Of groups and rings, Of
wheels inside Of wheels. always in
volved by a change Of parties, even
when made only for the sake Of a

democrat, not a republican, and

cord, it will support the ticket to be

What Watterson Says.

The country is always Interested in
Mr.. WattersOn's utterances. He re.
peated Saturday that there is now no
question about it, that Bryan is the
nominee. TO quote him further.
IF the Courier-Journal can get to
Bryan, surely the most disaffectcd
ought to be able to reach him with
out much trouble. in ease they be
democrats and not republicans. We
fought a good fight against him, and
we fought it to a finish. W. fought
it to unite, not to divide, the "a ty,
and we fought it whilst there was
vet time for parley. We fought it
sincerely. openly, frankly, unspar-
ingly. Not until money, mysterious
and unexpected, took the field-.-af-
ter the Courier-Journal had plead
and plead in vain for some intelli-
gent, disintcrestcd, popular re-
sponse---did the newspapers of New
York City begin to open their eyes,
to sit up and take notice. 1t is too
late. In short and fine, democrats
of the anti-Bryan habit. 1t is Bryan
or nothing. Except that too many
fools got to the front, the party
might have been saved in 1896. 1t
can be saved now, if too many fools
do not get to the rear. There must
be a change of parties in the gov
ernment, else there will never come
a change of policies short of revolu-
ton. the one-party power, next af-
ter the one. man power, being fatal
to liberty. In a contest Of this sort
the ad hominem argument should
disappear from the minds of men
like dews before the morning sun"

That Has Been Fixed.

The Charleston Post says: "Wheth-
er it be wise or otherwise, the Dem
ocratic State convention is going to
instruct the delegates to the nation
al convention to work and vote for the
nomination of w. j. Bryan at Dem
yer. That is not a matter Of opin.
ion but of fact. One-half the mem
bership Of the convention has been
definitely instructed by the county
conventions to vote for instructed
delegates and at least one-half the
remainder will voluntarily vote to
instruct. On principle, we think it
would be better not to bind the
delegates to any particular course,
but partially the pledging of the
South Carolina representatives in
the Denver convention to the Ne
braskan will fairly interpret the
sentiment of the Democrats of the
State"

The Charlotte Observer says that
it is unable to make out of the con-
fusion resulting from the difference
of opinion between The Columbia
State and Charleston News and Cou-
rier whether or not South Carolina
Democrats have voted for an in
structed delegation to Denver. The
Charleston Post comes in and de-
cides the matter as follows: The
facts arc that twenty Of the forty
n counties elected delegations

ton for Bryan instrrc Ioua to the

o~no oi.uo..u,., ul,u 80 nIooo 1Iuii-
ry,' as the Augusta Herald puts it,
has Abandoned his ''stili hunt" for a
dark horse" and, alone with
thousands Of other good democrats
has awakened to the realization
that the logical man for the nomina
ton is the Nebraskan. The strength
of Bryan has displayed as evidenced
by the actions Of various "uncer-
tain states, has been a surprise
even to his friends. Today he stands
more immovably fixed in the favor
of the public than ever before, and
it is more than likely that the Den
yer convention will again decide to
crown him with the honor of the
nomination. Democrats who have
not been Bryanitcs always, like Mr..
Watterson. realize that under pre-
sent conditions no other man named
could poll the strength that BRYAN
would command, and rapidly the
Bryan sentiment is crystalizing into
a mighty force. In the opinion of
men who think, men who have stud
led the situation, Bryan is thcisafest
and surest candidate to match
against the nominee Of the rcpubli-
can party who will likely be Taft.

BryaE D... Only Hope.

Col. Henry A%Attersou is, as usual,
talking goo, sense in his discussion
of the political situation, as concerns
Mr.. Began and the Democratic par
ty, especially. His latest review of
the conditions as they appear today
to a veteran observer Of political
events is well worth the careful
cogitation of all Democrats. In The
Louisville Courier-Journal Col. Wat
terson writes:
Well-advised observers know al
ready that the lines of the approach
ing Presidential campaign are laid
and the leardcrs as good as named.
The nominating conventions will
meet only to record the ascertained
will of the constituencies. MIR. Taft
is as sure of the Republican nomina-
ton as Mr.. Bryan of the Democrat
ic nomination. Those who quluDle
in either camp r either politicians
paying for their own advantage,
or else enimics in disguise. With
the Republican camp we have moth
itg to do. For the present, at least,
it does not concern us.
To the Democratic dissentients we
have only to say that. if they cuud
work the two.thirds rule to defeat
the will of the majority---under inc
plea and pretext that Mr.. Bryan
does not represent the preference of
these who will go to Denver to vote
for him--they would wreck US
whilst yet in port. If we can not
elect Bryan we can elect nobody.
The time for alternatives went long
ago.
There is but one course open for
sensible men and good Democrats to
pursue, and that is to unite their
splitting, to close ranks, and to rally
round the donkey and the flag. on
which still appears the Democratic
legend, Equality for all men, X
elusive privileges for none"
If The Courier-Journal can get to
Bryan surely most disaffected ought
to be able to reach him without
much trouble in east they be Demo
Gratis and not Republicans. We
fought a good fight against him and
we fought it to a finish. We fought
it to unite, not to divide, the party,
and we fought it whilst there was yet
time for parley. W. fought it SIM
cerely. openly, frankly, unsparing-
ly. Not until money, mysterious
