Bryan, a Moral Asset.

ut is hard" Mr.. Bryan declares at
the close Of the democratic conven,
ton, ito part with those who go from
you, and it takes time to become ac-
quainted with those who come to
YOU"
A note of sincerity rings through
these words 1t receives corrObOra-
ton from the course of Mr.. Bryan
during the convention.
Mr.. Bryan believed that the pro-
gressive cause in the democratic par
ty was endangered by the nomina-
ton of Judge Parker for the temper
airy craftsmanship. He had much to
lose and nothing to gain for himself
il he opposed it. But it seemed to
him that a principle was at issue and
that it was due to the best interests
Of the party and the welfare of the
country to struggle in its behalf. He
therefore endeavored to prevent the
choice of Judge Parker in order that
it might not put the party in the
false position of appearing to be I'M
der reactionary control. His own I'M
sought candidacy for the chairman
ship was defeated, but he had sue
ceeded in making it clear that pro-
gressive sentiment prevailed. This
was no small service to the party
and encouraged the progressives
greatly.
Another instance of Mr.. Bryan's
patriotism and craftsmanship occur
red in his attitude toward the Clark
candidacy. Before the convention
met the Nebraskan had held himself
impartial between the several can
didates for the nomination. At the
convention itself he obeyed the in
structions of his state and voted for
Clark until Tammany Hall threw the
solid vote of New York for the speak
er. This convinced him that there
were interests behind Mr.. Clark
WHICH, IL lie were IlOllIldteu anu
elected, would work disaster to the
democratic party and bring evil to
the public life of the country. He
therefore placed obedience to his con
sciences above obedience to the in
structions of the democratic major
ity in his state and declared himself
for the candidate whom he consid
cred to represent the best elements
in the democracy and in national poll
tics.
Such men as Mr.. Bryan are NOR
al asset to their party and country
Their sincerity and devotion to prin-
ciple are sorely needed.-Spokane
Spokesman-Review (Rep).

Bryan at Baltimore

Never in any public body were
public interests better served-more
devotedly, more acutely, more broad
ly, more disinterestedly, more cour.
ageously, more successfully-than by
William j. Bryan in his leadership
at Baltimore against the natural at
filiation of bipartisan crooks and
their Democratic dupes, who, but for
him, would have delivered the Demo
cratic party over to the financial pro
prietors of the Republican party. We
say successfully as well as courage
ously. disinterestedly, broadly, acute
ly and with devotion to principle, be-
cause the bipartisan bargain of the
political crooks with the financial In
terests, which was endorsed at Chi
cago, has been smashed at Baltimore
under Bryan's brave leadership. -

HOQUIAM. July 1O-Two things
of unusual interest will occur in the
local baseball world this week. Che

big attractions.
The Hoquiam team will be consid-

The great Sells loto circus has
what you might call whole flock
of babies with it this year. OF course
every self-respecting show must have
baby. but it is not often that the
visitor to the menagerie finds as
many as five little tigers, six baby
lions, three small bears, a juvenile
camel, and last but not least baby
zebu, the first probably ever seen In
menagerie in this country. Added
to these is a baby hippopotamus, al
so three baby elephants, the eldest
Of which is but II months old. OF
this wonderful collection, the baby
zebu will, no doubt, attract a major
portion of attention by reason of Its
rareity.
The zebus attain their greatest de-
velopment in India, but the breed ie
found eastward to Japan and west

The white zebu bulls, one Of which

sacred by the Hindoos. They are

The World 10 vexed

As will be seen by the editorial
from the Aberdeen World of last eve
ming, published in another column, the
evening paper appears vexed at an
Elma correspondent of the Herald
and this paper. simply because the
silence of the World and all other
papers Of Chehalis county, on the
story Of tax lodging by the Weyer-
haueser Timber Co.. printed in the
Herald has been criticized.
When 1t thinks 1t over, our esteem
ed contemporary will not find it sur
prising that it's readers-aware of
the avidity Of the World for news
story-should deem it strange that
such story should be passed up

been so readily verified. The World
says it don't know anything about

the story and print it with poster

The World claims to have been "the
first paper to urge cruise of the
timber. now we have it, and 1t is up
to the people to see it is made effec.
tive"-the inference being that the
people must do so without the assist.

As to urging the cruise, the World

Tax Oodoing

An Elma Taxpayer thinks the

ers is a monsterous injustice land he
is not far from correct. But he must
remember that the bulk of the news

easily explained The only remedy
for the tax evil is the organization of
an effective and permanent taxpayers
league-Grays Harbor News.
The Aberdeen Herald is out after
the tax dodgers and the big interests.
The Herald is laboring in good
cause, but it's remedy will not accom-
plish the desired result. The Herald
proposes to hire experts and lawyers
and take look into things at the
court house. That would avail moth
ing. The only remedy is that propos-

all were interested and alert.
The decision service in the School
Sunday morning was the best we

1t was impressive. and the children
all moved forward of their own ac-
crod. They are as able to accept
Christ as the grown people.
The Court room was filled at the

Rev. Thomas made strong appeal.
The meeting for men will be in the

All who desire to unite with the
