Here’s the way the intensely anti Bryan New York Post sees tt— It's not poestble to-day to rally the conservative forces of the country {n opposition to Bryan so splendidly as in 1896. Everybody knows the reason why. You cannot revile @ man whom you have !mitated. A party that has appropriated Bryan’s ideas cannot, with good effect, at tack his person. At the very begin- ning of the Republican campaign, it 1s the part whether of frankness or sound generalehip, to admit that power of resistance to Bryan has been broken by yielding to him. Presidents Roosevelt’s avowed and deliberate purpose has been to head off Bryan by stealing his issues. The argument, or threat, which he has constantly used has been: “It you do not go half way ¥ ; CULBERSON SUCCEEDS FRANCIS Ta making kuown the change, Mr. Mack sald: “Former Governor Francis’ acceptance of a place on the committee was assured. I did not anticipate that he contemplated & satay of any length abroad, but wired him. He answers that he will be absentso much of the campaign that he ought not to be chairman, but would be pleaeed to be a member of the committee. Senator Culberson was asked to accepted the chairman- ship, and has accepted.” RIP LIS OL Pe How's This?

The New York World says: “A tax on the hundreds of millions of annual income of the wealthy would go far toward relleving the burden of taxation now borne by people with small incomes or almost no incomes at all. There {s no more just or equitable way of raising public revenue.” Yet the republican national con- vention defeated an income tax plank by a vote of 950 nays to 28 yeas. How does it happen that such a just |method of raising public revenue found only twenty-eight supporters to the national encampment at in an assemblage of 978 republican | leaders?—The Commoner. ‘ out of the ottice he wrote ar the farmer, requesting an Imimed answer, and posted tt “Five days later he received ts 4 terfrom the farmer saying & | had been overlooked, and ! ‘his check for $150 tn payme little later that morning the cfs man came in and the lawyer, hand- ing bim the lester and {te cir are said: jt “ ‘But he has made the check able to you, and I've got to catet the next train to Lincoln.

The lawyer chuckled al! the morning over mak ing $15 so easily, but the laugh changed to a curse when he went t~ the bank and found the farmer’s check was a good forgery. “He had been the victim of expers confidence men.
