Thus is the tiller of the soil hans-waggled. IT is supposed in some high Repub- lican quarters that the late victory likely to prove death to that party. Hundreds of thousands of disappoint- ed office seekers, a split on tariff, and other dark clouds progoosticate the coming storm. is rs — otf anemia IT is evident pow that Texas cast more than 550,000 votes and that the plurality of Bryan over McKinley at least 150,000. If the Bryan and Watson vote is added, Bryan beats McKinley more than 200,000, Texas, has the banner for giving Bryan, in proportion to its vole, a greater major- ity than McKinley had in any state.

The actual reason is, because the last legislature squandered the money on jobs, raising salaries and creating new offices. et mis IT now goes that Quay will resign and have Hastings elected as senator for his unexpired term, 2 years. Then Quay will have himself elected for six years to succeed Cameron. This would shift the fight two years hence on the shoulders of Hastings against Wana- maker. How cute of Quay ; and what a dis- grace to our great commonwealth to have the high and dignified office of U. 8. Senator to be kicked about like a foot ball by the dirty feet of the boss- es, President McKinley is not having a sweet time with his party leaders, and these are some of the things that dis turb his sleep at his home in Canton : 1, He can’t put every fellow in his cabinet. 2, Bome of the leaders want tariff leg- islation and others don’t. 8, Some want the Dingly tariff bill and some don't. 4, Bome want him to call an extra session to pass some Kind of tariff leg- islation and some oppose it. 5, Bome are opposed to Mark Hanna renning his administration, since he had all the glory of running his cam- uration epremonies and ask the Pres ident to have somebody else do it. Taking all these differences together, there is a fellow in Canton kept in hot The Derrstown statesman want's | notice, this rooster heretofore omitted, a cross between buzzard, crow and gutter and is now looking up the Mifllinburg Telegraph for a description of it, find- ing it both ugly and interesting ; “bill” on one side is marked unpaid on the other “paid 15 cents on the dol- { ar in 53 cent dollars.”” To proceed fur- thes we would infringe on the copy- right of our esteemed friend, Dr. War- { ren, who will find the other monstros- | ities of the rooster as he wades thro | the colums aforesaid.

The liean and assistant Republican organs, for instance, are sneering at Mr. Bry. him: significant features about Repub ated by the American people, and that in him to think of 1900 or to suppose ward such propositions as these, Bryan got 6,221 552 cans, ers for Mr. Cleveland in 1862, vote that year was only 5,553 562 nearly 700,000 less than Mr. Bryan re- ceived on the 3d inst. If, therefore, Mr. Bryan is an object of derision be- cause of the popular repudiation in- volved in a vote of only 5,221,552, how are we to estimate Mr. Cleveland's standing with the masses in the light of his vote of only 5,666,562? Fhe fact is that, taking the 188,570 Democratic votes that went to Palmer and the 400 - 000 or 500,000 other Democratic votes that were given to MeKinley direct, and adding these to the vote that he actually received, Bryan would have carried the country so far as concerns the popular vote—ecarried it by an im- mense plurality. But it is idle to talk of a man who received six and a quarter millions of votes as a man who has been discredit. ed and rebuked by his fellow-citi- zens, No such moral can be drawn from the figures of 1896.
