Mr. Bryan'S Position.

There is no excuse f or tn e
constant attempt on the part of
unfriendly papers to misrepre-
sent Mr.. Bryan's position on the
liquor question. He has been
entirely frank in stating his po-
sition and in giving the reasons
therefore. But as soon as he
published in The Commoner a
series of editorials dealing with
certain phases of the liquor ques-
ton, instead of attempting to
combat the proposition advanced
by him, at once sought to impugn
his motives and to accuse him of
trying to make prohibition a
national Issue.

There is at least one spot
where rain h as never been

Surely no intelligent person
can believe that Mr.. Bryan is
seeking political advantage in op-
posing the demands of the liquor
interests. They have enormous
resources and a multitude Of de-
pendants, not to speak of a still
larger number Of dupes, and they
act as a unit and are utterly I'M
scrupulous in the use which they
make of their dependents and
their dupes, while the temper
ance people are busy discussing
other economic and political ques-
tons besides the liquor question
and do not act together on any
question.
In speaking out against the
evils of intempenance and in pro-
posing remedies he not only has
nothing to gain politically, but
he risks the alienation ofvalued
friends who agree with him on
other questions but do not agree
with him on this. Nothing less
imperative than a sense of duty
could lead him to take position
that may separate him from men
whose companionship h e has
priced and whose support h e
gratefully appreciates, but these
issues are here and the citizens
must meet them.
The liquor interests, recogniz-
ing the force of the moral move
ments which is everywhere at
work for the uplifting of society,
is audiciously and insolently en-
deavoring to coerce both the
Democratic and the Republican
parties into inaction; its lobby
lists infest the capital of t h e
Nation and the capitals of all the
States. Mr.. Bryan would not
deserve the confidence which has
been reposed in him if he kept
silent in the presence Of this gil
gantic conspiracy against tn e

An Appeal.

Dedicated to the Kentucky Chill
dren's Home Society,"
l am too young to earn my bread
Though ! am forced to roam,
But in some home l may be fed
If could find that home.
My father died ere was born,
Or has forgotten me;
My mother too is dead, or gone
Away, away from me.
l have no kindred that know
So have come to you
And beg that you this kindness show
And this much for me do.
Here in this State are homes you see
That children have not blessed
And they would gladly welcome me
And for me do their lest.
Just help me find this desert home,
Oh, do not turn away!
On help me, help me find home;
Oh help, oh help pray.
Just think if l was your dear child
Cast on this world so cold
And others would not give the aid
You now from me withhold.
Your spirit would be bent with grief
If such it thus should know;
Then think of me, child in grief,
And to me kindness show.
I'm sure I'd be to some ones home
Like sunshine to flower,
And thus make glad some aching heart
Make bright some dreary hour.
But then you know must have help
To find this waiting home
Because this world is cold and dark
To one like me alone.
A nickel or dime would help
To open up the way
To some good home, then help, oh help
Oh help me now pray.

apprenticeship at this trade, after which
he worked as a 1ourneyman. remaining
in the employ of one man for over twenty
years. when he engaged in business for
himself. He came to the United States in
1871 and located at Blackstone, ill.,, where
he again engaged in the business Of shoe
making. In 1886 he came to Custer county
with his adopted son. Charles Mytton, and
settled near Westerville. where he has
since resided. .tsu r.

SHEEP-The slumpy trend OF prices yVs-
terday was again apparent this morning
and the opening market found most Of the
local huyers under cover, evidently ~ htsle
need OF killing material. As a result, move
ment was slow and drRggy, and the lthitod
amount OF business that was transacted
was largely Of q peddling nature.
Total receipts were fully normal, the
estimate calling for thirsy-slght na-s. Over
twenty-five cars arrived In time for the
early trade, but the character Of offerings
on an everage was nothing extra aud this
feature doubtless served 70 Increase the
Indifference OF demand.
The situation did not show any Improve
ment as the morning advanced: In fact
II was well along oward noon before
enough stock had changed hands TO afford
much Of an Idea OF price levels. II vas
generally admitted, however. that the mar
ket had settled to a lower basis, but the
limited number OF sales mad IL vary dif-
ficult for sellers to call any actual decline.
A few sheep sales looked to be t0atIc lower
than yesterday; one or two Strings OF y
very good quality changed hands AZ fig
ures possibly no worse than wcaK, aud
several quarter lower spots were apparent.
