Democrats voting straight for Me- Kinley
 Bryan soon began his unprecedented and unequalled campaign tour. He did not then possess the suavity of his later years. but he was nightly in earnest. No other man has ever aroused the enthusiasm which he created in that campaign He spoke to over five million people, making over a thou sand separate speeches. In the first part of the campaign he travelled in ordinary day coaches, the railroads making it as hard for him as possible. Toward the end of the campaign the railroads relented and he was enabled to get a private car. He was without money and in his great canvass was sometimes forced to borrow the price of ticket to the next stopping place.
 Against this terrific campaign, which seemed to be sweeping the country for the Demicrats. MT. Hanna planed the great campaign of education" The farmers of the agricultural states east of the Mississippi were induced to be- lieve that the election of Bryan would mean bankruptcy for them. All of the wealth of the country was back of Hanna-he had millions to spend and he knew how to do it.
 Careful canvasses taken two months before the elections showed that such states as Ohio and Indiana were for Bryan. The work that was done to turn that defeat into the overwhelm- ing victory of November was due to the political 'sagacity of Marcus A. Hanna.
 Bryan's appeals to the people of every section, the enormous popular interest in his personality and the pic- turesqueness of his campaign. on the one side, and the efforts of the Re- publicans to reach every voter with campaign literature and personal arg ument on the other side. resulted in a widespread popular interest in poli- tics such as had never been known.
 While the campaign was decisive.
 and while it practically settled the , money question for all time, defeat did
 not diminish the popularity of the
 Democratic standard bearer who has
 ever since stood high in the councils of his party Mckinley was chosen president and his administration wit
 messed the return of prosperity, the greatest the country has ever known After all, not the least among the Re-
 publican assets of 1896 was the fact that the panic of 1893 came during a ! Democratic administration.

{. THE MckiNLEY-B BRYAN
 RACE OF 1896 Bry Frederic J. Haskin


 WASHINGTON, D. C.. Oct. 23-The hardest fought political battle of Amer ican history as the campaign of 1896 in which William Mckinley of Ohio vanQuished William Jennings Bryan of Nebraska. The fact that Mckinley was re-elected with ease in his second campaign against Bryan, and that the Republican majorities of 1896 look so great on paper. has caused many men of short memory to believe that Me- Kinley won his first election without great difficulty.
 In that year the Democratic nom- inee. Mir. Bryan, made the most re- markable speaking campaign ever un- dertaken by any man. In the same year, the Republican campaign man ager. Mir Hanna, spent five times as much money as had ever been, spent before in presidential race. The Re- publican campaign was conductedfwith such consummate skill that the name of Mark Hanna will live for years as that of the best political general the country has produced.
 The year 1896 was a year of politi- cal revolution. Both of the leading parties underwent great changes, and the number of independent voters was increased a thousand fold. MT. Cleve- lands second administration began with the country on the verge of a financial crash. The blow descended and the panic of 1898 was on. The money question, which both parties had so carefully side-stepped for so many years was presented in such a way that the administration could not avoid taking a position. MT. Cleve- land and his cabinet decided to place the country squarely on the gold stan- dard, and to disregard the petty sops which had been thrown to silver. The treasury regulations accomplished this purpose long before the Mckinley ad- ministration came in.

SAN FRANCISCO, Oct. 25.-Led on by hope Mrs. Mary Errickson travelled 10000 miles in search of her she'll shocked son, James Erickson.
 The long search started several months ago when she learned that he was a patient in a shell shock ward at Camp Mercedes. Texas She hur- ried there and learned that he had been transferred to Council Bluffs, Iowa.
 There she again learned he had been transferred to the coast. At Wenat- chee, Wash. her money gave out She secured employment driving an auto mobile to Oakland, Cal. having heard that her son was on Alcatraz Island.

SOLID HOME SUPPORT

Hon Mulford Winsor, candidate for the democratic nomination for govern or, is fortunate in having such a warm support from his own county. In the city of Yuma there has been organiz- ed club for the support of MT. Win sor's candidacy and on the executive committee of this club is to be found the names of all the prominent dem ocratic nomination for governor have instituted an advertising campaign in behalf of their home candidate. As all supposed candidates for the dem cratic nimination for governir have not yet been announced there seems to be a hesitancy throughout the state about declarations of favorites. How ever, there is no doubt about Winsor having the enthusiastic support of his home county democrats-Douglas In tenatiOnal

driver of a horse and wagon, fa- miliar with crossing, stopped, looked and listtned 20 feet from the nearest of the two tracks. Seeing the gates were up he drove on without stopping to look again, though his view was ob- structed, and he was struck on the second track. The Pennsylvania Su- preme Caurt held that he was guilty of contributory negligence as matter of law; that a person who has entered on railroad tracks with view to cross ing must continue to look and listen for approaching cars, and that the fact that the safety gates are not lowered at a crossing does not relieve a driver from the duty of exercising ordinary care.-Kipp vs. Central of New Jersey (Pa.) 10S Att. 175.

Has Loss in French Francs

Qaestion-May | ask your opinion as to
buying French francs as an investment at
the present rate of exchange? Through
whom would 7 buy them; and in what form
would | receive thern-that is. in silver, or
in the form of draft or check? My reason
in one way for buying these francs is be-
cause of the fact that have over $1,000
tied up in the Guaranty Trust Company's
Paris branch. deposited at time when the
franc was worth about $50 or 6. and if I
should be obliged to draw same out it would
be a considerable loss to me, and | would
desire to cover. this loss by. an Investment in
francs at this tsme.-H. II. N.
Answer-1n the present nuctuating,
panicky foreign exchange market in
francs and other foreign exchanges the
element of stability which is essential
to. safe Investments is conspicuously
lacking. Therefore, we cannot recon
mend francs as an investment. The
purchase Of francs. has speculative pos
sibilfties, which hinge on the ability of
the French people to solve satisfactor-
lily their financial problems. Specu-
lators for the rise, who are confronted
with a falling market, often increase
their holdings at lower prices to get q
lower average cost price. If you desire
to do this you can through most any of
the banks purchase francs. For your
purpose it would be best to arrange to
get a credit in the form of a deposit,
drawing interest in French bank or
in a French branch of an American
