bright and SHINING Democratic light
in Ohio, but who has not been gwen
any positions tending to show party
confidence, ana who, like William R.
Hearst, has at last ceased to strut
around in lions skin soaring or de-
ceiving people, but has gravitated into
the money bloated company he should
keep, has not word to utter good for
either the Democratic party or for VIM.
J. Bryan. The Post loses no opportu-
nifty to damn both, and whilst it and
its owner get out at least 365 damns on
the party and Mr.. Bryan yearly, the
party fails on no occasion to damn
both that newspaper and Mclean
when opportunity presents, just as it
damns Hearst and other turncoats. 1t
is supposed, therefore, that they and
the party are horse and horse on that
proposition, the party having more
people in it to damn the newspaper
and its owner, than the newspaper has
chances to return the compliment. But
