again. Going back a little matter OF
half q lifetime to his dramatic es-
adjustment as q leader Bryan still
retains in greatest measure the honor
and trust OF the general membership
of that party, Wilson received op-
portunity at the hands Of Bryan, and
retained dictatorship with q tryran-
nical greediness. Wilson has driven.
Bryan has led. Great leaders seldom
achieve the highest office. That Is
given as q compromise to smaller and
more calculating men.
It was another very dramatic mo-
ment in his life and the history Of
demo conventions when Bryan stood
on the platform at San Francisco
with tears streaming down his face
watching the mighty demonstration
he had evoked. Mr. Bryan has an
acute sense Of dramatism and Mr..
Bryan has furnished several dramatic
episodes In American politics.

BRYAN's DRAMATIC MOMENTS.

The convention ran true to expec-
tation on the Bryan enforcement
plank. It turned It down by a heavy
majority. MIR. Bryan probably had
no hope that It would be adopted.
There was probably ais slight hope
OF success among those who brought
Bourke Cochran out OF his bibulous
obsuourity to ornate for a wet plank.
The debate was by way OF
Ated by ratification Of the amend
drys and vets and service Of notice
that trouble lies ahead for the radical
OF either side. The split on dry and
wet in the democrat party will never
be closed until that party is dry.
The demonstration that followed
Bryan's plea for his enforcement
plank made so much clear. A large
element Of that party favors prohib!-
ton and enforcement Of the law GRE
ated by the ratification of the amend
ment by the sovereign states.
It also brought Bryan back and at
forded him his opportunity to dem
onstrate to the party and the people
in general that he retains a mighty
influence with the rank and file OF
his party. It was a Bryan and q dry
demonstration and the most noisy
and continued Of any despite the fact
that the band remained mute and
the bosses Of the convention frowneo
Bryan is still the peerless orator of
the democracy. Cochran, oratorical
champion Of the vets. slid into insis-
nificance by comparison. The con-
vention recognized the difference be-
tween the men and the issue but it
was altogether too much to expect
that a convention controlled as that
one should vote for the Bryan reso-
luton.
Like Truth in the poem Mr.. Bryan,
crushed to earth, rises again. He has
been crushed over and over, knocked
into a cooked hat and soforth be-
tween conventions but he always
comes back a powerful and promin-
ent figure when the convention meets

the war. It has scarcely begun to
make good the shortage Of houses,
public improvements and railroad
equipment. The exports of May
reached a total surpassed in not
more than three or four months of
our history, and there is reason to
believe that the unsatisfied needs Of
other countries correspond to our
own.
Unless this loss Of normal capital
accumulation and of necessary con-
struction has been made good, 1t
seems probable that while excessive
price advances will be followed by
reactions, every material decline In
construction costs will bring out
new demands for labor and ma
terials, with 8, renewal OF general
business activity. or course employ
ment and trade are mutually de-
pendent.
The crops are more promising than
earlier in the season, which means
that the buying power Of the agri-
cultural population is likely to be
fairly we'll maintained. and this Is
the great steadying factor in the
domestic trade situation. II the
crops OF Europe should be fortunate-
ly so large that our exports of food
stuffs would decline, the way would
be cleared for general lowering o.
Industrial costs and OF prices tirs
world over. and a return to condi-
tons more nearly normal than have
prevailed since the outbreak OF the
war. On the other hand, II our ex-
ports Of farm, products continue at
the rate Of lust year. 1t seems i'm
probable that any considerable re-
duction of wages or prices VIII occur
in world markets or In this country.
The situation seems to make gen.
eral state of industrial depression
improbable. but favors a gradual
readiustment Of supply and demand
with the downward tendency OF
prices.

Answers to Yesterdays Questions.
First--Is a queen bee necessary for
the life Of a swarm Of bees?
The peculiar office and sacredness
of the queen consists In the fact that
she is the mother Of the swarm, and
the bees love and cherish her as a
mother and not as a sovereign. She
is the sole female bee in the hive.
and the swarm clings to her because
she is their life. Deprived of their
queen, and of all brood from which to
rear one, the swarm loses all heart
and soon dies. tho there be An

Second---What is the appearance of

A northern visitor that tarried with
me one winter was the tree or Can
ada sparrow. This Is q bird larger
than the social sparrow or hair-bird.

Third--Which is tho first spring

BANDITS AND POLICEMEN.

INSeutlCliHS tlc Tragedy, "LlCA Iooh
place a few days ago at Marshall
town two men are dead at Waterloo,
q young bandit and an officer who
died in his duty Of protecting the
public safety. Coincidentally, two
young bandits were sent to prison
for long terms from Cedar Rapids.
All these were youths and all seem
to have been desperate and ready to
use deadly weapons. They run in
pairs like wolves in packs. OF the
six Immediately referred to two have
been killed by officers, two are In An
a mosa for the better part OF their
lives, one is awaiting trial and SEN
tence and one is fugitive with the
hounds of justice on his trail.
These are and were all young men.
mere boys most of them. The boy
killed at Marshalltown was from a
nearby community and it is said Of
him that as a lad he was of good
character and promises. The Coe col
lege boy sent to prison from Cedar
Rapids is said to have been an un-
usually bright fellow with bright
outlook. OF the others less is known
except that they were all young and
at or below their majority.
Now the youth of these lads
arouses sympathy of course but a
young bandit proves as dangerous
and deadly with a gun as any hard
ened yegg who ever souped safe.
There is neither occasion nor excuse
for maudlin mourning over the fate
they met whether it is penitentiary
sentence or death at the hands OF
officers. The officer that lies dead
at Waterloo was killed because he
waited for the desperate to shoot
first. Officers of the law stand as
public protectors. They take the
chances for the Individual. And they
have the right to protect themselves
and should protect themselves. Yet
the same public that puts the body
of the officer between itself and the
bullets of desperate criminals not UNI
commonly criticises the officer who
shoots first when his life ia threat
ened. It is q sad thing to see youth
shot down or sent to prison but when
the sheep dog starts killing sheep his
previous occupation and good char
acter do not grant him immunity.
The deadly weapon concealed on
the person is evidence that the pos
SCISSOR expects to use 1t. II carried
for protective purposes it should be
invariably accompanied by a legal
permit. Yet it is likely that COM
plete round up Of concealed weapons
in Waterloo or other cities Of the
state would bring to light a bushel
basket full Of them. Why do not the
ponce powers IN their own protection
and the protection Of the public they
should guard clean up the pistol
toters? How often is an arrest made
OF a pistol or knife toter and how
often when deadly weapons are
found when an arrest is made is the
charge OF concealed weapons made
and pushed7
The man with the gun under his
armpit is altogether too common in
Iowa. When one OF them reaches for
his gun and the officers shoot first
lots commend instead Of oondemning
the officer.

AS a literary production the

come up to George Creers efforts ut
fiction during his Craftsmanship Of
the public transformation bureau in
war time. That little skit descriptive
of battle that never took place sent
out as jolly for the Fourth OF July
should have been Incorporated by
quotation. It's classic Of its kind
and character.
Richmond Pearson Hobson spoke
for the dry plank at the convention.
II the plank was as dry as Captain
Hobson's prohibition lectures-well
it would be dry enough to choke on.
Wilson is the party leader and will
remain so while he stays in the
White House or kick over the beans.
The convention should nominate him
instead OF his son-in-law. What's a
third term prejudice to weight against
the sort Of arch angel the platform
testifies that Wilson embodies?
Homer Cummings made speech.
a bright, sarcastic speech. It's pretty
well established psychologicaly and
experimentally that a man who can
make a good speech and does 1t and
loves to bask in applause and such
like never manages campaign well.

They say there were more than

They also say that the bees are

but then, a bee doesn't know any
