Generally cloudy elsewhere; good rains
in the northern half of Texas; also in the

northwestern quarter of Florida, which
may have fair weather. Precipitation in
the central and eastern states, except
possibly in East Tennessee and North
Carolina, should not be as heavy as dur
ing the past two days. Our market
opened little easier on the poor Liver
pool, but selling was well taken.
The demand came from shorts to cover
over sunday and on the belief that rainy

bullish crop report by The Times Demo

is thought might make the crop so late

In reply to an inquiry a well posted

yet. New York did not encourage the

here today.
Il would rather occupy the time" con-
tinued Bryan, lin denunciation of the
deed and in expression of sympathy for
him and hopes for his speecy recovery.
but the issues of the campaign should
not be determined by the act of mad
man. They must be settled by the sane,
rather than the insane.
Neither Colonel Roosevelt nor his
friends could ask that the discussion be
turned away from the principles that
are involved. If he is elected president,
it should be because of what he has done
in the past and what he proposed to do.

traitor to whom to submit a presidentioi
