Thayer county has instructed for him and ('ass will unquestionably be for him. If he had not been figured out of most ot Douglas he would have routed Holcomb and tho state house r'n j without trouble.

OxSAHD is very fearful of competition from abroad and can taik against imperialism with better zest than Mr. Bryan, for he is the beet sugar king and he fears that his profits m:iy be wiped out by Cuban and Hawaiian competition, when the two countries come in under the A mer ican flajr on the same footing as other states and territories of the union. We have never thought of a tariff against Kansas to keep her corn out of the markets, for when she had a big crop of corn, she sent the money back for something she did not raise. People who are not owning beet sugar factories are not worrying about com petition among ourselves, and if Cuba raises our sugar, she will eat our breadstutTs to offset it and furnish us a big market with money to pay for what she wants. A RESULT OF OUR TARIFF. The long advertised German com mercial war has begun, and it takes the form of an invasion. A compan7 of German steel manufacturers has concluded that the btst way to compete with us is to be one of us, and has begun the construction of a ereat plant near Chicago. For its sake we hope the kaiser will not shut its pro duct out of Get many. We can stand this sort of a war splendidly. A great m -my Germans have invaded this country before now, and we like them.
