The time is near at hand, from pres- ent appearances, when the anomoly of a barbarous, Asiatic and Mahommedsn : power, in so-called Christian Europe, must cease. Jealousy and the preserva- tion of the -balance of power have en- d abled a cruel despot to perpetrate crimes ' upon a people that makes humanity weep. It looks now as though some- I thing effectual is to be done to stay the bloody work that has been going on in Armenia and in Constantinople. Rus- sia, France and Britain are said to have agreed on a policy to be pursued, and whether that involves the occupation of the Bosphorus by Russia or not- ; which has been .Britain s bete noire for the last hundred years-- the world gt` will breathe freer if the Sultans of 31 Turkey be restrained from imbruing their hands in the blood of Christian ' men, women and children. I ___ ..--v-uu vl.qtll.UUl.' Should` Mr. Bryan live till the year i 1900 he will again be a candidate tor` the White House--and it maybe that people enough will be induced to do their own thinking that will insure his election. At present such men as Mark Hanna do the thinking of a ma- jority of the American electorate. rvwvv vn VIl\I IIIIIIIJUIIJQ One of the serious errors committed by Mr. Brvan s organs was the abuse ` of Britain because of the debt due to her and the `necessary result of said debt, not considering that the folly of contracting such obligations was their own and not their British creditors. .Cl`o.....u`1m.. n--_- '- ---- -* -unreasonable., The causes of; poverty-' and distress are not conned to the complained` of, but he salts for nothing` question of currency; ._ ` Thereare many factors that must be reckoned as aiding `in; the production of hard times and poverty. One of the important factors that has been overlooked is the reckless borrowing of money which has ' char- acterized both national and coroorate : action. The interest` payable toforeign : creditors is enormous, $200,000 000 yearly, and the weight` of this annual drain on the people s resources, is one cause of thehdiscontent which is. en- : dangering the peace of the country. 1 nun nf plan ......:---.. --.- Nothing is ultimately gained by sup- pressing the truth. Bryan, so far as we could judge by close attention to the campaign, is not the advocate of repudi- ation of honest debts or a` dishonest dollar. He is not a blatant orator, a blatherskite, a dishonest, tricky, brazen charlatan, and a malignant lunatic, all of which terms have been applied to him. He advocates nothing that would justify such epithets. His Ipeeches exhibit a wonderful versatility, . an array of facts and gures in such close logical sequence that they remain 1 unanswered and evidently unanswer- 1 able except by the aid of ridicule. i _ I-Iis whole course from the time of his , celebrated Chicago speech, which so I electrified the convention, till_ the last day of the ght, proves him to be a man of no ordinary calibre. He is pushed back for the present but he will surely 1` come to the front again.

William McKinley has won the Presidency of the United States, and there is general rejoicing in the Re- publican camp. William Jennings Bryan has lost thebattle and shares the fate of all who lose in a great con- test. Ridicule is heaped upon himland all manner of contemptuous epithets are bandied from newspaper to news- paper and from mouth to month. All these would have been laudations had he won instead of lost. The campaign has been one of lying and misrepresent- ation as such campaigns generally are, only, the late one has been intensied in misleading, beyond any previous Presidential contest. Both candidates have been abused, caricatured andmis- represented, but as the great newspapers were chiey on the side of the moneyed interest, Bryan and his cause got the - worst of it. _ Weeks pt-eeolmed a very impru- Iive sermon at the memorial services for Williem_.Me.yner_d, who was drowned in Luke Simone.

The result of 9 the -choose up was that villagers and 1 one farmer were against all the crack 1 shots and huntersof the vicinity. Of _ course it was conceded that the poor tender-foot of the town had no 3 chance against the brave Nimrods of I lthe country. However, at six o'clock F gthe score stood 135 points in favor of r the village. This was the most excit- : ling hunt we have ever held. The best shooting was done by Mr. Lemow, who carried in 1 fox 2 porcupines, 2 rabbits and some partridge. The fat man didn t get the bear. Taking ex- " ample by the failure of last year he betqok himself to quieter and gentler ` game. This time he was too tired even to looli at it. Our three professional men made the three highest scores and to them the victory for the village be- longs. Fortune was ckle on that day, hunter's luck, I suppose. "One brave, who early in the morning had 200 points scored, when he arrived in the evening, had only 35 more.
