MIR. BRYAN on ETHICS OF BOLT
ING.

on page 1875 of ''The First Bat
tie" William Jennings Bryan says,
regarding abandonment of party
temporarily:
Difference of opinion upon the
questions that are for the time being
paramount always has destroyed.
always will destroy, and always
should destroy party harmony. II
abandonment az party is ever justifi-
able the voter must determine for
himself when the time for abandon
ment arrives. When should he de-
eide? The proper time, if not the
only time, is after the party has
adopted its platform ami named its
not know whether he can rely on it
to secure the government which he
regards as good and the legislation
which he considers necessary.
Does participation in primary
or convention bind the voter to sup
port a policy which he considers
rulnous? If he tries through his
party organization to save his cOun-
try and fails, must he then take "A
hand in its destruction?
IF a great question arises must
he assume. that his party will go
wrong and therefore leave 1t before
it acts, or should he try to hold his
party to the right course?
Il recognize the right of all Demo-
Gratis to a voice in the deliberations
of the party with the reserved right
to abndon the party whenever the
party abandons the cause OF the
people"

This is your business, Mr.. Tax
payer. II is your money that is spent
by the county. and on whether or not
ii Is well spent depends the amount
that will be demanded of you. Do
you wish thieves and grafters and
inoompetents 10 waste your money,
demand of gcu that you vote for
them, because they belong to your
party, and then laugh at you for
being a fool?

One of the most peculiar political
situations is that in the race for
county court clerk. Either Harry
Williamson. or Prof. John ID. Smith
could defeat Gus Singleton. This is
clearly shown by the numerous re-
quests for Information as to which
is the stronger. coming from voters,
who wish TO cast their ballot where
it will do the most good. Professor
Smith, being the independent candi-
date, OF course, expects to win
enough votes from both Democrats
and Republicans to win out. Harry
williamson friends argue that he
has behind him the Republican party
organization as nucleus. and has
fewer votes to gain in order to Sc
cure majority. This argument ap-
parently appeals to some Singleton
workers, who ostensibly working in
the interest of Professor Smith, are
to induce Republicans
to desert Williamson, and thus split
up the opposition to Singleton.

II, however, the Democratic
party is ever to be entrusted with
power to revise the tariff it must
present q more united front than
has been shown during this tariff
fight. When Senator Culberson,
the Democratic leader, called a
caucus OF his party associates to
consider what they could do to
promote downward revision there
was only one policy on which it
was possible for them to agree
and that was on the income tax.
We venture to predict that not
until Democratic candidates for
both houses Of Congress stand
for election on platforms which
pledge them to actual and even
reduction of the tariff rates, and
not until they give their, solemn
word not to follow the lead of
Senator Bailey of Texas and re-
ject as impracticable the plat
form pledges, will the American
people trust them to revise the
tariff. It must be remembered
that it was on distinct pledge
to cut the tariff rates that Demo
cratic victory was last won and
then, when as ultra conservative
Senate refused to follow the lead
of the House and pass the Wilson
bill as it was passed there, the
public lost faith and it has not
since been possible for the Dem
ocrats to regain the confidence
they once enjoyed. The specta-
Gle of Democratic senator vot-
ing for every increase proposed
by the Republican leaders and
finally for the Ubiquitous Senate
bill, which was so bad that even
q Republican President has been
exerting his every. energy to COR
rect its most glarihg defects. is
not one to inspire confidence or

they can rely on the Democratic
party to give them genuine tar

Mrs. John Blair, sister of T. Durand,
of this village, was called to eternal
rest Friday, August tn, as the result
of an operation for tumor, likewise
appendicitis.
Mrs. Blair, whose home rs at Champ

about month ago she left for Everett
to undergo an operation. She went also
with the hope that change of climate
would be for the better, but it seems
that it was her lot to die, for her trip
did her no good.
Deceased was brought to Champion
Tuesday by her two daughters, who

eral took place Wednesday, interment
being in the family lot in the Champ
ion cemetery.
