OLD FRIENDS AS It SE H.
Mr. Bryan goes to the pith of
the situation in his forecast that
<he Democratic party in the elec-
tion of 1908 will have the support
of many who have been against it
informer elections for the presi-
dency.
Ten years of Republican bad
government have convinced many
thousands of Republicans in near-
ly every state that the principles
of Jenersonian Democracy are the
only safe guides for the conduct
<>t our public affairs. These citi-
zens will naturally turn to the
party whose record and history
are a pledge that it will enforce
fie practical application of these
principles
There will be no friction be-
tween the old friends of Democ-
racy and the new. A Republican
who has been converted to anti-
monopoly principles of tariff leo--
lslation by the excesses of the
Dingley policy is as good a Demo-
crat on that question as one born
and bred in the faith. The date
and hour of his conversion are of
no significance. The important
tact it* that h© now sinccrely be-
ilieves in the Jeffersonian principle
of equal rights and equal protec-
tion to all, with special privileges
to none.
The political rights of the indi-
vidual citizen are dear to every
good American, no matter what
political faith he may profess,
ray Its elaborate system of politi-
cal bossism and machine politics
*he Kepublican party tramples up-
on these rights in nearly every
state where it has a working or-
ganization, and the citizen is de-
nied his equal voice in the control
of his local, state and national
governments.
There seems hardly a doubt that
in the elections of 1906 and 1908
the Democracy will be reinforced
by hundreds of thousands of for
•mer Republicans who are now in
v-eyolt against the robberies of the
Dingley tariff and are grimly de-
termined to restore government
of the people, by the people and
for the people.
I ohtical parties in this country
are not hereditary institutions.
I hey are organizations composed
of citizens who think alike with
respect to the welfare of the
country. The Democratic party
has a warm welcome for every
citizen who, whatever his past
affiliations, now agrees with its
principles and approves its candi-
dates.—St. Louis Republic.
Thk indications are that the
1 wenty-seventh district is reliably

grel of the "funny" page of the , ve? l!ie Democrats to put forth I

imploringly for a report from the
city officials of the receipts and
disbursements of the public funds.
Now isn't that an exhibition of
sublimated gall for you < While
the two administrations to which
the Syringe was a sort of vermi
lortn appendix was running the
machine, no report worthy"to be
dignified by the name was ever
returned, and the mellifluous voice
of the editor of the Syringe was
hushed and still. The first quar-

show that all of the revenues of

that every dollar expended has

by its predecessors. The forth-
Editob YValker of the Purcell
Kegister arises and puts the perti-
nent question, "How do you good
old farmers, who have been hana-
mg on here for years, renting land
and fondly dreaming of the day
when you could own a farm in this
glorious country, like the speci-
men of a square deal which the
Republicans handed you in the
Curtis bill? Instead of giving v-ou
a fair showing at a piece of sur-
plus land you may have set vour
heart upon as the spot whereon
you would like to rear a home for
yourself and family, y0u must
stand back until you see if any ne-
gro happens to want that particu-
lar piece of land, as the Republi-
can-made law gives the freedman
man the preference right in the
purchase of surplus lands. If
there s anything left after Mr.
Nigger gets all he wants, the white
larmer is given a chance at 'the
leavings. And yet the white farm-
ers will be importuned to vote the
Kepublican ticket. Can any self-
respecting white farmer vote for a
party which thus places him on a
lower level than the neoro?"

Ihe latta-end of the Syrino-e
contributes largely to the amuse-
ment and gaiety of what without
him would be a monotonous sea-
son of the year when lethargy and
somnolence prevail. The droning
of the bee the chirp of the cricket
and the harsh song of the cicada
are drowned near the close of day
bv the dulcet braying of the Ion<*-
eared conservator (?) of the pub-
ic interests. When he is not
braying at the city council, ho
may be heard braying at the oil
producers; when he is not howlin®'
over one thing, he's howling over
another. It's wow-wow-wow or
he-haw he-haw, with him ail the
time. He reminds one of the
story of the Kansas boy and his
{J°g. A village urchin up in jay-
hau kerdom owned a mangy, flea-
f itten canine of composite' breed
and ancestry. A stranger in the
final village intently watched the
ineffectual efforts of the boy to
coax the dog from under a build-
ing where refuge had been found
from the assault of a swarm of
flies.,? Hyah Pop, hyah Pop, hyah

(iog refused to come forth. A
doeful whine was the only re
spouse. "That's a queer name

the oil men were figuring out

do this they are collecting all the data
relative to the amount of oil that can

then ask the railroads to make a rate
that will enable the producers to ship.
