For President: WILLIAM JENNINGS BRYAN, OF NEBRASKA. For Vice-President: ADLAI E. STEVENSON. OF ILLINOIS. The first battle of ballots is over, and now the candidates are thinned out to a stand, this gives the people fewer to select from, and makes it less difficult to choose. In the election of last Tuesday some of us did not real ize our hopes, but that should not make us sulk. All of us could not get our choice, some body had to get left. There will be attempts made to disgruntle the friends of the defeated, but we hope the people will not let such a condition be brought about. If your man was not suc cessful this time, take it for granted, that it was because the successful man had the longest pole to "trash de simmon wid." It often happens that a man is defeated in one primary, if he takes his defeat like a man, he will be successful the next time. Do not let the opposition make you dissaatisfied. They will try and make you believe that the successful man was "slated," but you own common sense should teach you that no man can be . slated in a primary election. The people vote as they please and if any man undertook to slate a ticket, it would necessarily be confined to himself and a few personal friends who agree with him. When a man comes to you and undertakes to stuff you with a "slated ticket" story, see if he is not interested in the opposition and then put the question to him, how can a man tell how I would vote?' The cry of "slated ticket" is the despairing wail we h.?ar after every election and it always - comes from the other side. The scratching of Tillman's name from the ticket last Tues day was a blunder which we re gret was made. True, it was ad vised by some good men, but nevertheless it will have a ten dency to tear open factional sores and we sincerely wished to avoid anything of this kind. If Tillman provoked the ministers, they in turn should not provoke the people, for in doing so they loose sight of the fact that we are bidden to "turn the other cheek." Tillman made some of the ministers very mad by his charge of an "unholy alliance with the ex-barkeeper." We think they have construed that assertion most too literally, and we believe that some of them in putting their construction on his words, exhibited much method in their madness. Why did they -advise the scratchIng of Till man's name, and to vote for Col. Hoyt? They do not claim that McSweeney or Gary or Patter son gave them offense. If be cause Tillman offended them, why should his offense be visited on the others,except Hoyt? No, the ministers who have made themselves conspicuous in this election have done their profes-I sion more harm than did th charge of Senator Tili ma n against them. The ministers have permitted their zeal for what they believe to be right, to get the better of their cooler judgment, and thereby their rea soning has become warped. We do not believe there is a minister of any standing who would cone sciously go into a political con spiracy, but we do believe that many ministers have been en ronared by the politicians and a preThibition seine was used to en snare them. The preachers want prohibi tion because they hope it will advance the growth of temper ance: they want this thing so earnestly that they do not stop to consider the practical side of the question. There are many others who want temperance who differ with the preachers as to the method of obtaining the de sired result, they are also sin who have always favored liquor, have always stood in the way of 7 temperance reform, this class have tacked themselves onto the Prohibition forces and it is plain IS to everybody, that their purpose is not to advance the cause of t temperance.

The kind You Have Alwajs Bought Bears the Signature of . : n He Wasn Admitted. Fortunately when red tape comes in 1 contact with common sense It is red u tape which goes to the wall. A good 5 story is told of a military official who # devised a system which compelled ev- 1 ery one who went on business to Gen- ~ eral Banks to procure a ticket from a member of the staff, the presentationr of which at the door gained his admis- ~ slon. One day a burly colonel came toi the door of the private office at head- t quarters and requested that his name I be given to the general. "Have you a ticket?" be was asked. "A ticket!" echoed the colonel, with scorn. "No. sir. I haven't." r "You can't enter here without one," I was the reply. "Sir," said the colonel, "when Gen eral anks becomes a puppet show, a and I have 25 cents to spare, I'll buy ar ticket to see him, not before." He was ~ admitted.I The Sleepless Seven. "There were seven of the 12," said one of the discharged jurors In speak ing of the matter next morning, "who didn't want to sleep themselves and wouldn't let the rest of us sleep. When ever we dropped Into a doze, they came around and shook us till we were wide awake again." "And you had to submit, I suppose. for they constituted the majority?" "Yes, they, were the rousing majori ty," said the hollow eyed juror, with a pensive attempt to be facetlous.-Chi cago Tribune.

"A log jam is one of the most for dable problems we have to encoun :r In our line of business," said a Mis issippi lumberman. "How they begin difficult to explain: A few dozen >gs will become wedged for an instant ia narrow part-of a stream and in ass time than it takes me to tell it undreds of others will come swooping own and pack themselves in an intri ate, close knit span, reaching from ank to bank, and almost as solid as rock. The force they exert is some bing marvelous. During one jam in iy section I saw a lot of logs plunge der the edge of the blockade, and a ew seconds later they pushed their ray up through the very middle of be pack, tossing timbers as big round as a mnan's waist into the air ke so many toothpicks. The noise bey made as they drove through the lass was simply deafening. It sound l as if the solid earth was being torn p by its foundations. When the logs assed under the jam, they were evi ently caught in such a way as to till further obstruct the imprisoned tream and were hurled upwvard with 1 the irresistible energy of millions of llons of rushing water. "The breaking of a jam is a very eklish operation and seems to he irgely a matter of instinct with old ivermen.
