NO THRILLING
WITH REACTIONARIES

William j. Bryan's announce
ment regarding Governor Har-
mons presidential aspirations is
welcome pledge. Explaining that
Governor Harmon cannot be nom-
mated without the active aid of
the Interests, and justly implying
that his nomination would not be
democratic in any sense that could
make democratic victory worth
while, Mr.. Bryan's editorial in the
Commoner of last week announces:
"lf Nebraska's democracy in
structs for Mr.. Harmon, Mr.. Bryan
will refuse to serve as delegate
lin case he is elected) but will, in
stead, go to Baltimore as an indi-
vidual, and as an individual do
what he can to secure the nomina-
ton of progressive democrat"
This is full and fair notice to
the interests, and all their political
Office boys, that they cannot battle
the democratic uprising in this
country by annexing the demo-
cratic party. You who think diff
ferently, read the history of your
country in the early fifties, when
the slave oligarchy did what the
plutocracy of today is trying to do.
Read that history and be wise.
Should reactionary like Governor
Harmon be nominated by the dem
ocrats, Bryan himself could not
keep millions of his followers from
voting for the republican candi-
date. Not unless the republican
candidate were a reactionary like
Taft; and in that case Bryan could
not prevent millions of his follow
ers from uniting with millions of
La Follette's to defeat both reac-
tionaries. No manufactured third
party would this one be. 1t would
be spontaneously generated third
party, like the republican party of
more than half a century ago

to cover the expense of the prose-

WILSON is FEARLESS

Speaking in Tennessee, Wood
row Wilson talked about the mon
ey trust in this way: What was it
that they proposed to investigate
in congress the other day? Not a
money trust in the ordinary sense
that anybody is hiding or boarding
money anywhere. Men who have
money are not fools enough not to
want to use it, because it does not
yield them anything if it is not
used. What is suspected is this i;
that nobody can get large loans in
this country to start those large
enterprises b, which alone our in
dustry thrives, unless he will con-
sent to take certain gentlemen in
with him who furnish the money;
that the privileged circle is closed,
and that while you can get all the
little credits you please in your
local banks you can't get your big
credits where the reserves of the
country are kept, except on the
terms of the gentlemen who stand
guard over these reserves. That
is what is charged. And it is not
charge d without evidence. 1t is
not charged without abundant EVIL
dence.

FISHERMEN ACTIVE

The report of the number of
trout fry distributed in the Rio
Grande for the year just past
showed the number to have been
$4,000 from the Del Norte hatch
cries and 100000 from the govern
ment hatcheries in Leadville. This
totals l,3S0,000 fry which has been
liberated in the Rio Grande and
its tributaries and this work has
been directed and under the sup
ervision of the association to a
very great extent.
The establishment of nursery
ponds for the first growth of fry is
a subject which the association has
been studying and experiments
have shown them to be practical.
Accordingly the board of direct
ors were directed by motion duly
made and seconded, and empow-
cred to establish and maintain
four nursery ponds on the Rio
Grande during the coming year.
One of these is now under opera
ton on the Benson place just east
of Del Norte. One will be estab-
lished in Granger and South Fork
section and two will be located in
Mineral county the sites having
been already selected by the men,
bers of the association in that

CARNEGIE HALL SPEECH

NJ
The ablest and best speech made
by Theodore Roosevelt during the
campaign was the Carnegie Hall
speech in response to Taft's plea
Tor arlstocracy and will be effect
lvely used during the campaign.
He said:
Whenever there is tyranny of
the majority l shall protest against
1t with all my heart and soul. But
we are today suffering from the
tyranny of minorities. 1t is a
small minority that is grabbing
our coal deposits, our water pow
e1s and our harbor fronts.
ut is a small minority that lies
behind monopolies and trusts.
"lt is small minority that
stands behind the present law of
master and servant, the sweat-shops
and the whole calendar of social
and industrial injustice.
The only tyranny from which
men, women and children are suf-
ferlng in real life are the tyrannies
of minorities.
81 am not thinking only of those
special interests which by grosser
methods, by bribery and crime,
have stolen from the people. | am
thinking as much of their respect
able allies and fgureheads, who
have ruled and legislated and de-
cided as if in some way the vested
rights of privilege had first mort
gage on the whole United States.
while the rights Of all the people
were merely an unsecured debt.
MIR. Taft's position is the posi-
ton that has been held from the
beginning of our government, al
though not always so openly held,
by a large number of reputable
and honorable men who, down at
bottom, distrust popular govern
ment, and, when they must accept
it, accept it with reluctance, and
hedge it around with every species
of restriction and check and bal
ance, so as to make the power of
the people as limited and as in
effective as possible. Mr. Taft
fairly defines the issue when he
says that our government is and
should be government of all the
people by representative part of
the people. This is an excellent
and moderate description Of an
oligarchy. 1t defines our govern
ment as a government of all of the
people by few of the people"

In his address before the Phila-
delphia Chamber of Commerce,

clared he believed the people were

things were growing better and
that he believed there would be no

Mothers Only Chance.

John, the twelve-year-old SON of {
widely known corporation lawyer OF
Kansas City whose public life often
brings his picture in the daily press,
caused his father much amusement
and pride when he returned home from
school the other night. Running to

Of himself printed in the daily paper.
PA, I guess I can get my picture

said II won the first prize in the

The boys mother came up and
laughingly said: Well, do not think
that is fair. Your papa has his pic
ture in the paper so many times. and
here you begin. What can I do to get
my picture published?"
The boy pondered a moment and
then said; We'll, mama, l guess you
