BRYAN AND THE PRESIDENCY

Some Facts in Regard to the Demoic Candidate’s Fitness for the Higli Oiliee Toward Which the People Urge Him.

A MOSi CONSISTANT CAREER

When all that can be said has been said in the present campaign, when all the issues which may honestly <ause a division of opinion ainoug thinking men, are set aside, and when the costest is stripped of all conflicting contentions, the one p , amount fact stands out in bold reiki, that no candidate ever entered the race for the presidency better tith'd to discharge the functions of that high office than William Jennings Bryan. In the iirst place Mr. Bryan is an honest man. He is sinp p Not even ids most bitter political opponents have ever had the temerity to question his honesty or to doubt his sincerity. His life has been clean, his character is above reproach. He has lived in tire open; hi every act both in public and private life is subject to the closest scrutiny. For twelve years ho has occupied the spotlight of publicity without blinking. He rings true to the highest ideals of human life. There is no stain up >n his escutcheon: no skeletons in his closet. He Unifies in the highest degree the lofty conception of American manhood No citizen in private life, by

precept and example, by words and deeds, has done more for the moral and material uplift of all the people

than has Mr. Bryan.

There Is no greater student of political and economic conditions in the United States today than Mr. Bryan. It is his knowledge of history coupled with his keen judgment of men and measures which enables him to grasp and understand present day conditions. His ideals, grounded In human sympathy, have been broadened and strengthened by travel and study. His investigations into social and political conditions have not been confined to his own country, hut have embraced almost

every civilized land.

Mr. Bryan is an optimist and a progressive. He looks upon the bright side of things and believes that the world is growing bettor. He sees ways and means by which that betterment might be’advanced, and with all of his marvelous ability and great force of character he strives for their accomplishment. He has not labored solely within the narrow confines of partisanship. Never has he hesitated to commend the acts of a Republican administration wherein he believed them to be for the benefit of the whole people. His commendation of the good has been as strong as his denunciation of the bad. He has, within the past 12 years, lived to see some of the important fundamental principles for which he stood become the accepted doctrines of a party and administration, which, but a short time before, had rejected them and condemned him for advocating them. Mr. Bryan’s career has demonstrated that without holding public office a man may gain the very best experience for the performance of public duty, particularly when, to

AGAINST GOVERNMENT PROVISION HUMBLED BY DePAUW 44 TO 6

This morning the interpretor employed at the A. & C. Stone and Lime Company's plant appeared before the county clerk and made application tor naturalization papers for twenty loreigners, mostly Italians, employed at the quarries. These are what are known as the "first papers," secured after two years' residence in this country. These men wish to use the papers at the polls on the 3d day of next November. Most of them arc incapable of speaking English, hence the need of an interpreter. This brings to mind the fact that the state of Indiana is one of the few states in the Union where this can he done. In all other states except, we believe, New York, no foreigner can vote till he has his second papers and lias, therefore, been in this country seven years. In Indiana, however, by a freak proviso of the constitution, they can vote after having received their first papers, or in two years after having reached tills country. Many good lawyers hold that this is contrary to the federal proviso, and that the state constitution must give way, but up to this time it has been held good

wherever tested. Consequently men

game. The DePauw goal line was crossed once by Creek more of Georgetown, who caught an attempted forward pass by the Methodists ami ran thirty yards for a tou-'idown During the rest of the game the DePauw goal was never in danger. During the second half Coach Brown put In nine new men, and this kept the score down. Jackson, at right end, was sensational in running back and four times ran through the Georgetown men for large gains. Greenstreet starred in bucking the line for long gains, hut was n tired at the end of the first half on ac-

count of ti bruised shoulder.

The game in detail was as follows: First half DePauw kicked off to Georgetown’s fifty yard line. George-

town was forced to kick

van and Greenstreet, DePauw buck od the oval to Georgetown's forty yard line. The Methodists ran Greenstreet, Harmon and Grady down the field for a touchdown.

Grady kicked goal.

Georgetown kicked off to DePauw’s fifty yard line. DePauw carried the oval to their opponents’ fifty yard line and lost it on a fumble. After an exchange of punts the Methodists secured the ball and i ucked

the line for a touchdown.

The last two touchdowns of this half were due largely to the efforts of Jackson, who made long runs’ in returning the kickoffs and to the punting and quarter back runs of

Grady.

Second half--Georgetown’s kjekoff was returned sixty yards by Jack son, who then made an end run of twenty yards. Scott was pushed over the line for a score. Georgetown kicked to Stansell on the thirty yard line. On a forward pass, Levan made fifteen yards. DePauw here lost the hall and an exchange of punts followed. DePauw gained possession of it on Georgetown's forty yard line Creekmore of Georgetown caught !>« Pauw's forward pass and scored. The next score made by DePauw was by Lawrence, who caught the ball on a fumble and ran twenty-five yards for a touchdown. The last DePauw tally was made by Sladerman after a long series of line plunges by the Methodist second

team.

TILL AFTER THL ELECTION

Many Fear That the M eat Iter Men,

Following; tlie Example of tlie Republican Party Have Postponed all Bain Till After November 3d.

For several days it lias been trying very hard to rain. Local forecasters and those supposedly vise in the ways of tlie weather have to’d u that rain was due and we would get our share. It lias, I Inis far, how ever, been all in vain. Clouds there have been, and wind and ciiangi' from warm to cold and from >'d to l sing a g a in. but no rain Now we have at leant a hint as to the reason for all this. The rain i to be postponed till after the ole tion. The weather men are nil ap pointed by the Republicans, and therefore partake of the Republican point of view. Republicans are radically opposed to doing anything—till after the election, except work work, work. It is feared that rain might interfere with that work, or anger some one who lias declared that it will not rain till it snows Hence the rain will also be put off till after the election. And tnis i tlie cause of the many clouds ami n

rain.

Mr. and Mrs. A. B. Phillips were tile recipients of a surprise on Saturday evening, when a number of I'riendii reminded them in a most oihstantial way that it was their wedding anniversary.

Mr. and Mrs. Phillips were at upper when the guests to the nurn>er of some score and a half broke in upon them, it required but a few moments to transfer tin* house into a •►•lie or mirth and pleasure.

Later the guests again took conrol of affair* and front corners and lall-ways where they had been stor'd on entering, baskets of good hines to eat were produced. anJ ost bountiful refreshments were orved. The whole affair was infornal and the pleasure all the greater for that very reason. On leaving the guests presented 'he hosts with a handsome patent and with many wishes for many returns of the day and of sucli mirth and pleasure.

The several pieces of properly belonging to the John Cawley heiri wen* sold at public auction by the Central Trust Co., trustee of tlie estate, at tlie court house steps at 1 o’clock this afternoon.
