BRYAN'S OPTIMISTIC VIEWS.

Mr.. Bryan gave out an interview at
Waterloo, Ia, recently in which he
predicted lower cost of living be-
cause of the reduction in Tariff rates.
There are no facts apparent TO house
wives to verify this statement. Ev-
en- the Department of Agriculture is
Isceptical about meats being any
cheaper. A recent bulletin of the de-
partment is largely devoted to the out
look for meat production. Under the
title, THE Meat Situation" the open
Ing sentence read; s-"---,
O. The high cost OF meat is
a serious reality, and it is
now obvious that the rise in
prices in recent years is the
natural result OF an actual
shortage in production.
Speaking of the reduction in the
Tariff on woolen goods Mr.. Bryan
said: LESS shoddy and more WOO
will be used" lie was careful not tc
claim that there would be any ma
terial reduction In the price of cloth
ing. His argument on this point wa:
10 the effect that "The tendency o.
a fall in prices is to increase the
demand, and an increase in the de
mand to some extent will check th'
fall" A politicians most valuabl,
asset Is to know how to hedge.
This sort OF reasoning is like thu
areument of the Montana Free-Trad
er who was asked about the shipmen
ID cattle from Canada into the Unite,
States. His reply to the farmers wal
IN effect that the removal OF the dut,
would greatly help them because the.
could bring in blooded stock cheaper
80 Bryan, looking at the question O
lower cost OF living from the point o
view that there will be more goods
and possibly lower prices, fails to
take into consideration the business
point of view that the influx OF for
eisn foodstuffs and merchandise vii
ruin trade in domestic lines.
The Secretary OF State should ge

What is proven by the uproar rails
ed over this Connecticut woinans life
Is that capital punishment In itself
Is wrong. Five States OF the Union
have abolished 1t. These States are
Michigan. Wisconsin. Maine. Rhode
Island and Kansas. Iowa once aban-
doned the death penalty hut later re-
enacted 1t. Maine at one time re-
enacted the law, but the Governor
two years after drew the attention
OF the Legislature to the fact that
hanging murderers was not causins
fewer murders and the death clause
was repealed. Such statistics ss are
available do not show that the
States which lock up murderers for
life suffer any more from homicide
than do those which demand a life
for a life. ,.;!,
