DEMOCRATS FILLED WITH HOPE {Defeat of the Republican Ticket In This State Next Fall Would Give Them Big Lead in Presidential Raee. [Special Correspondence.) Harrlsburg, August 21. Pennsylvania Democrats are eagerl) waiting to join in the demonstration o) the national Democracy over the home coming of their leader, William Jen nings Bryan. There is already on foot a well or ganized movement in this state to bring about the nomination of the "match less Democrat of Nebraska" for the presidency, and it is the hope and ex pectation of leading Democrats thai the result of the election in Pennsyl vania next November will ,:ateriallj contribute toward that end. The Democratic state convention, which named Lewis Emery, Jr., for th« governorship and put upon the ticket with him that trio of well-known Bry anites, Messrs. Black, Creasy and Green, flatly proclaimed in Its platform that Bryan is a certain successor ol Roosevelt in the White House. Michael J. Ryan, the eloquent presiding office! of that convention, evoked cheer aftei cheer by his eulogies of Bryan and his confident prediction that he will be the next president of the United States, and that the outcome of the election in Pennsylvania will foreshadow thai result. Democrats Looking Ahead. Arrangements have been made to have a large representation of leading Democrats from Pennsylvania at the great Madison Square Garden reception. The Bryan men in every county in this state have taken on a new lease of political life and are showing new vigor in their political work for Emery and the entire Democratic ticket. They are devoting particular attention, too, to the Democratic and l.incolnite fa vorites for congress in the several dis tricts in which candidates have already been placed In the field. They are quietly presenting argu ments to the old line Bryanite Demo crats for them "to stand by Emery and the whole fusion ticket" in order that the defeat of the Republican party in Pennsylvania this fall may be pointed to as a signal endorsement from the very citadel of Republicanism of what they are pleased to characterize afi a great popular uprising for the eleotion of Bryan to the presidency. Bryanltes Almost Fanatical. In this connection the enthusiasm ol the followers of Bryan In his own state of Nebraska is pointed to as emphasiz ing the feeling that exists in the hearts of his admirers throughout the conn try. Prcus dispatches recounting the scenes of the joint convention of Dem ocrats ar.d Populists of Nebraska held at Lincoln a few days ago all tell of the almost fanatical exhibitions given by some of the leading delegates. Law-abiding, peace-loving and con servative citizens of Pennsylvania, who are being invited to join the Bryanites of this commonwealth in their efTorts to record a vote of repudiation of the Roosevelt administration and the Roosevelt policies at the coming elec tion through the defeat of the Repub liean candidates in Pennsylvania by fusion or other games of political ma nipulators, should read and reflect upon the sensational speech made by the presiding officer of the Nebraska convention. Then they should con sider how far a triumph for the Em cry-Donnelly-Ryan-Black-Creasy -Green fusion combination at the November election would go toward promoting the cause of Bryanism throughout the country. Visions of Bieod. This Is what Chairman Sklles. of the Nebraska convention, said: "The time is speedily coming when by the advice and command of the American people the guilty highwaymen, the oppressors of the poor and mockers of the courts will be brought to their knees in hum ble submission by an outraged peo ple.

Such a man Is coining. He Is our friend and neighbor— that intrepid, cease less. tireless fighter, the great com moner and defender of human rights, William Jennings Bryan, the young gladiator of the west, who, 10 years ago. struck the first deadly blow ever aimed at the heart of plusocracy in this country." Mr. Skiles then pictured the Ameri can people waiting to vote for Bryan for president, and foreshadowed In the returns of the state elections to be held this fall In all parts of the coun try an emphatic demand for tine "Great the cause of Bryanism. In this connection it Is interesting ta recall that the platform of the Pennsylvania Democracy, which nomi nated Emery for governor, said: We congratulate the country upon the fact that the only prom inence the present Republican na tional administration has attained has been achieved by feeble and pretended application of the prin ciples enunciated by the Hon. Wil liam Jennings Bryan, the great Democratic Commoner, who is now regarded as the certain successor of Theodore Roosevelt to the pres idency." A vote for Emery is a vote of in dorsement of that platform, as wtli a; a contribution of moral support tike Bryan presidential movement. STRONG FOR THE RIGHT. President Rooaevelt Has Proved llotli Brave and Sane. lu our uututored, uncouth western way let us say that tlie course of Presi dent Roosevelt since he learned unofft. cially of his election suits the people of the middle west clear to the ground. His immediate announcement that he would not be a candidate for re election left him free to attend to the welfare of tlio country," with no harass ing suspicion of any further political ambition, and that pleasnd us all. £llll ujore acceptable was ihe deter lifanntion, evidenced in liis message, to resolutely grapple with the transporta tion problems— rebates, extortionate or discriminating rates, Industrial "roads" and private cars. In this lie showed himself both brave and sano for the discontent wl'h exist ing abuses is so great as to bveed dis belief in the power of our government to cope with the evil 01 distrust in its willingness to do so. In his attempt to demonstrate that the government of the United States Is 6trong enough to eufjrce justice in this vital matter he has and will have the enthusiastic support of the cejtrnl west and of its representatives lu con gress. Astounding as were the majorities by which he was elected, they fall far short in our judgment, of what a poll taken today would show. And so in uncultured fashion we bid him godspeed.

OHM lu Itevcnue and In jury to llouit'Mkic Intermix. In estimating the value and advan tage of reciprocity as illustrated in our trade with Cuba the admirers of that system apparently are able to see but one aspect of the case. They confine their appreciation of the blessings of reciprocity to the single fact that our sales to Cuba have increased from $21,- 701.038 in 1003, a no treaty year, to $38,380,000 in liHio, a full treaty year. This increase of $10,018,902 in goods exported to Cuba is accepted as con clusively demonstrating the perfect working of this reciprocity arrange ment. The demonstration is good as far as it goes. But there is another side to the proposition—in fact, several itlier sides—for example, the trade bal ance side. In 1003 (fiscal year), before we had entered Into the reciprocity experiment, jur purchases from Cuba amounted to $02,942,7!X), and our sales to Cuba were §21,701,038; adverse trade balance, PAIRP,ANFj3 CAS or GASOLINE ENGINES.
