defense of this great man at a more
opportune time. You are one of
the few who refuse to fall in with
the rabble and make mean and
vulgar filings at Mr.. Bryan, who is
The noblest Roman of them all.
You are altogether right in stat
ing that the great bulk of public
sentiment in this country is upon
the side of Mr.. Bryan" When the
common people get a chance to be
heard they will sustain him just as
they did when he drove the money
changers of Wall Street from the
Baltimore convention.
The subsidized and lingo press is
now in the saddle, but they are
soon to be taught by this greatest
champion of human rights and the
most powerful defender of the teach
ines of the Prince of Peace that
Righteousness exalteth a nation"
1t is my earnest prayer that you
may always have as clear an un-
derstandins of our nations duty as
you have in this crisis.

1t is suggested here that after
crops are laid by the people of
Evening Shade, Ash Flat and Har-
dy, with the assistance of all those
living along the way, should join in
concerted effort to improve the
public road between these places.
The suggestion is a good one, and
we hope something along that line
will be done. If the people will
only join their labors for several
days each a wonderful improve
ment can be made in this road at
but little actual cost to any one
person. Let's do that, instead of
wasting a lot of time after crops
are done,
