ing through every state from ocean
to ocean.
In this triumphant call there is no
false notes-nO note of fear or timid-
ity.
For weeks, and especially since the
republication fiasco at Chicago, the
truly progressive OF both parties have
centered their hopes in the outcome
of the Baltimore convention. These
hopes have not been misplaced. The
answer comes laundering back: I'VE
will keep the faith!" and that answer
has sent thrill through the fibre of
every citizen who unselfshly and pa
triotically believes that the govern
ment of the United States should be
returned to the custody of the peo-
pie.
1t has been evident for some time
that nothing really progressive could
be expected from the republican par
ty as an organization. The admin
such that it has discredited him with
majority of the thinking voters
of his own party.
The action of Theodore Roosevelt
both before and during the Chicago
convention, have not been such as
would bring confidence to the real
progressive.
With the republican organization
hOpelessly split and no chance of
remedial legislation from that source,
the democratic ticket and platform
present a solution that the electorate
will most certainly take advantage of.
The Star believes and the majority
of the democratic voters of Nebraska
believed, that Champ Clark was the
logical candidate to lead the progress
sives to victory. His work as speaker
of the house seemed to qualify him
particularly for this work, and his
had endeared him to the people.
In his hour of disappointment the
hearts of his loyal followers go out
to him with a message of faith and de
votion. Missouri's grand old demo.
crat has still his work before him in
congress and he still lives in the at
lection of his friends. For eight
straight ballots Champ Clark receiv-
ed the vote of majority of the dele
gates, and in defeating him for the
nomination precedent of seventy
years standing was overturned.
That the bitterness and soreness
engendered in the great struggle will
lnger for while goes without say
ing, but these feelings will soften with
time, and the democratic party will
present united front in November.
Regardless of personal feelings or
personal preferences, it is gratifying
10 all Nebraskans to know that there
vas one figure that stood out above all
he others at Baltimore. and that fig,
ure was William Jennings Bryan. In
mindful OF jeers or Kisses from his OPP
ponents, he defied the predatory inter.
ests of Wall street and brought out
of the Baltimore melting pot" ticket
and a platform of his own choice.
The Star is a progressive newspa-
per. fighting the battles of the people
as it sees the light. With absolutely
no other interest than the rights of
the people in view it will work from
now until November for the election
of Woodrow Wilson as president of
the United States, because it believes
that in the progressive principles laid
down in the democratic platform lies
the only hope of relief for the Ameri-
can people from the enormous evils of
government to which they have been
subjected.

The Business Situation

Midsummer seldom if ever has wit

measure. returned. Profits are in
creasing for various manufacturers

heavy, showing particularly large

urgent demand at high wages Money
rates are tightening, indicating d
greater use for funds on account of
larger business needs. These and 9TH
err developments plainly show that the
industrial situation in this country is
improving. Conditions in other coun-
tries are not so uniformly good. There
is an uneasiness abroad that is diff
cult to account for. There is marked

about international peace.
