But he will, early in the series, make
it plain that he will make the fight in
Nebraska on the insertion Of a county
option plank in the democratic plat
form.
Right then Mr.. Bryan will lose the
support of Gov Shallenberger, who is
opposed to county option and is stand
ing on the present daylight saloon act,
which he, as governor, approved. He
expects reelection on a platform az
firming the efficacy of this law. Gov
Shallenberger has not yet announced
that he will fight Mr.. Bryan, but he
has stated that he will fight county OPP
tion, for which Mr.. Bryan stands.
| Another wheelhorse of democracy
who will desert Bryan is Mayor Jim
Dahlman of Omaha, who has for ten
years been known as organs closest
personal and political friend" and who
managed the Denver convention jim
| 1909 for Mr.. Bryan. Mayor Dahlman
stands on a personal liberty" plank
and he will be candidate for the gov
ernorship now held by Shallenberger.
/ Dahlmans strongest plank in the cam
paign being personal liberty and
drink all you can get if you want it,"
WILL NOT FOLLOW THE LEADER.
The Omaha World-Herald, which has
supported Bryan in all his campaigns,
will not follow it's old-time leader into
county option, but will fight that plank
in every way.
In a recent editorial the World-He-
raid announced that the position of the
parry on the liquor question would be
determined by the entire party and not
| by any man nor set of men, and gave
as its judgment that the Nebraska de-
mocracy could under no circumstances
be brought to adopt the plank which
Mr.. Bryan is about to spring upon the
public.
But Mr.. Bryan is not going to con-
fine his anti-whisky war to the bor-
ders of Nebraska. He intends max
ing a national issue of the question
placing it above the tariff, the finances
trusts and every other pertinent ques.
ton now before the public.
When the last article of the series
which Mr.. Bryan has prepared il
printed it will be seen that he ha
burned all bridges behind him, that HI
has staked his political existence OF
the outcome and that there can be nj
: turning back in the course which n
; has mapped out for himself.
But whether or not Mr.. Bryan cal
persuade the democratic party to fol
low him into prohibition is anothe
question.

ERo ON FARMS.

Columbia. Mo-. Aug. 14-Missouri
has more farms than any other state
in the union. Within her borders are
284,S 1856 farms, which average 40 acres
to the farm. The improved land to
each farm averages 70 acres, or 6oiia
per cent. These figures are based on
the last census report. According to
the report OF the department of COM
merce and labor the farms OF Missou-
n are worth $34.75 per acre.
Among the states of the middle west
Missouri has smaller farms than many
Of them. Ohio is an exception. where
$4,000 farms average only 80 acres
each. Illinois has 1000 farms OF 124
acres each. Iowa has 22SOOO farms of
151 acres; Kansas 49, 900 of 2SS acres.
In the United States farms average
146 acres, but only 80 per cent is i'm
proved land.
F. B. Mumford, professor of animal
husbandry in the university of Mis-
souri,. has prepared some interesting
facts about the amount Of live stock
there is on an average Missouri farm.
This Is considered great mule state,
and yet there are four times as many
horses as there are mules in missouri.
The equipment as Prof. Mumford gives
It, is Is cattle, horses, l mule, &c
hogs, 5 sheep and a fraction of goat.
Fully one-third of the states popu-
lation depend directly or indirectly
upon animal products for their exist
ence," saidAProfessor Mumford, in dis
cussing Missouri as a live stock state.
The income from animals and animal
products is $13OOO.OOO annually. Fiji
ty-five per cent of the farmers have as
their principal income, the proceeds
from sale .of live stock"
Missouri stands third in the middle
west as the state having the largest
number OF Srenters on the farmsl IL
linois farmsNare titled by sixty-one per
cent owpersS and thirty-nine per cent
etnants. The per cent of tenancy in
Iowa Is $40, while Missouri has only
three tenants in ten farmers; which
means that seven farmers out of ten
in Missouri do not pay rent, but have
the title of their farms resting In
themselves. The per cent OF tenantcy
In Ohio is '275, but in Michigan II

Missouri does not get SO much re
turn from her lands per acre as d.
many OF the other states in this sec
ton. According ITO the last census re
port the money made on each acre O
improved land in Missouri was $9.5S
This is not much less than in any O

Morton, Mimi, Aug. 14.-Gusa God
frey, the man whose name makes old
pioneers shudder, died at the Santee
reservation last week, aged about sew
enty years.
and at the time Of the Sioux massacre
lived near the Sioux agency with q
Sioux woman. He Joined the Indians
at once and by his cunningness and
bravery became the most atrocious
murderer among them.
He could speak English and French
fluently and the German language he
had well mastered, which at that time
were all that were spoken in this re-
gion.
No plans of escape passed his ear.
He knew personally every settler along
the valley. every child in every fam
lily, all the officers and nearly all the
priyates In Fort Ridgely. By these
means his influence was strongly felt
among the Indians whether present or
not.
Godfrey was present at the killing
of the Zimmerman family, looked with
glee on the readless body Of DR..
Humphrey and personally directed the
ambuscade of the party west OF Beav-
err creek.
This man seemed intoxicated with
murder and lost all sense of decency.
He drove a wagon containing three
prisoners, Mary Anderson, Mary
Swandt and Mary Schwartz, in the
meantime permitting the Indians to
torture them into insensibility, and
lastly leaving Mary Anderson to die
the roadside from bullet discharged
from his own rifle while he pretended
to 20 for assistance.

chase and called to her neighbors.
About twenty-five men and women
joined in the pursuit, Mrs. Doerste

Near Gravois avenue the fugitive
left the street and sprinted through
vacant lots toward the Rives Dies
Peres. Mrs. Doerste caught him by
the coat tail once, but he broke away.
At the river bank he swung upon
the limb Of tree and drew a razor
out Of his pocket. Mrs Doerste says
the razor was her husbands. Awed
by this display Of hostility, the crowd
stood back and none made an effort
to interfere when the thief leaped
from the limb into the water and
swan across.

The crowd ran to q bridge, 100 feet

had disappeared. A mounted police

Ry this time Thurman was as mad
as Gunda. He went into the house and
got the worst prodding pole in the col
lection there. 1t was tough hickory,
with a bayonet fastened into the end
as tight as il it grew there. Thus
armed he let himself again into the
corral. Gunda rushed at him and got
a lab in the neck that made him howl.
Before that yell ceased the bayonet
