Foit a country lawyer with u small jirao
lice Ilryuti is a wonder, but so was Tom
Thumb, nnd no one ever thought of run
ning him for President.
f Acconni.No to tho newspapers, llryan's
idea is to get elected President of the United
States without tho cunsent ur assistance of
Jiuy other politician on earth.
n elfort is being made to account for Mr,
llryan's vote for General Weaver, instead of
tho Democratic candidate, in 1MW. It is
needless to bay that the explanation dooa not
explain satisfactorily to leal Democrats.

'Two wrongs will not iniiko a right.
Uryan yells rascality and dishonesty on ,1.
Pierpont Morgan and the government bond
deals and then turns around uiid wants to
work his own llfty-three cent dollar scheme,
'Which wo all know is wrong.
Jlikie Lansing, of Nebraska, who is a
nejgnbor of Hon. William Jennings Bryan,
has told the drummers at their noonday
ineetiuB tlmt Mr. liryan will lo-o his own
state by 20,001), his own city by 1,000 and his
own voting precinct by from 50 to 75 votes.
'This bort of arithmetic must bo very exas
perating to the fiec sihcritcs of this county.
Lack of school accommodations are re
ported not only from Philadelphia and Xew
York, but from a number of other places,
for lack of funds ten schools in Delawaro
.township, llunterdun county, have been
closed, depriving about 800 childieu of edu
cational facilities. Are we losing our regard
for tho education of our children? It looks
that way in a number ol localities. Shenan
doah, however, is sustaining its past reputs
lion in this lino by famishing the proper
facilltios for tlio education of the young.
lr Mil. HliYAN is elected President of tlio
Vnited States and frco coinage of silver is
adopted as tho policy of tho Government, and
it tuck policy has the ell'ect of enhancing tho
price of silver, as the champions of that
policy say it will, then the success of Mr.
Uryan will bo worth to William It. Hearst,
