DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM
BRYAN WOULD BUILD.

William Jennings Bryan, through
the Cleveland, Ohio, Plain Dealer,
gave out last Monday, the hope that
the forthcoming Democratic nation
al platform will contain the follow
nge eight planks:
Endorsement of the administration
of President Wilson.
National prohibition.
Woman suffrage.
Opposition to enforced military
training.
Opposition to profiteering.
Taxation.
Labor problems.
Public ownership.
We are compelled to condemn at
least twenty-five per cent. of Mr.
Bryan's eight suggested planks-
public ownership and woman suf-
frage, and we had rather see boys
trained to plow than to handle gun
A military draft or conscription law
can and did produce, here IN the Unit
ed States, an army well capable Of
meeting the trained soldiers Of coun-
tries where military training has
been a law. Mr.. Bryan strikes the

NARROW, mean man.
At IL he ran away to New York,
where he sold newpapers on the
streets, helped to cook on a vessel
and proved that he was not stingy by
cutting off too much potatoes with
the peelings, for which he was fired
the first day. Back home and back
in school he was expelled for
prank and was put to work in dads
soap factory. At 13 he went on the
road to sell soap-and sold it At 19

hood chum, buying both tickets to
Leadville, Colorado. Just as they
reached Kansas City Williams hat
blew out the car window and with il
the conductors punched check, so
off they got and Williams experience
in the West was varied but he final
ly went back home, well dressed, with
presents for all the folks, and resum-

to marry when his income stood at
that figure. But back to the runa-
