Henry Lichte, of Dunlap, in
forms us that out of tho sixty
votes in his precinct Bryan will
get fifty-six and that Dawes

dred majority. Tho majority of
he republicans in Dawes county
are for Bryan.
Dr. Ely, republican candidate
for state senator was billed to
speak at the court house yester
day but as tho McKinloyites
could not scai'o up an audience
the meeting was abandoned. In
deed it seems very difficult to
have a gold bug reception with
out tho assistanco of tho special
train gang.
A. E. Sheldon, independent
candidato for i-opresentativo and
Judge Mutz, candidato for sena
tor, addressed the people of this

nesday evening. They aro both
straightforward gentlemen and
aro making a clean, honorable
campaign. -
Judgo Greene addressed tho
largest atulionco at Crawford
Mohday night that has aver as
sembled in Hint city and at the
closo of tlio meeting sixty-five
now names woro added to tho
Bryan club. Tho gold bugs
should send Mr. Cady back to
Crawford to "counteract" tho,
work of tho "anarchist."
Mr. Cady will speak at Alliance
to-morrow ovening and it is safe
to say that the "sound money
club" will not have a mooting in
order to keep the railway men
from hearing Cady. It is singular
that when a silver man speaks in
that town, tho "McKinley club"
or "R. R. men's sound money
club" must have a meeting and
request all members, especially
tho Bryan men to bo present.
A MoKinloy and Bryan social
was given at Edgomont Wednes
day evening. It was an immense
gathering, but there were only
four gentlemen and two ladies for
McKinlcy. A New York capital
ist who is interested in Edgemont
was present Ho said that "if
McKiuloy was elected they would
invest more in Edgomont and thus
improve tho city," to which Mayor
Sharrock replied "Edgomont will
go right along just tho baiuo if Mc
Kinley was dead; I have always
been a republican but I cannot
stay with tho part' this year."
The Guide says that "Mr.
Smytho stated in his speech that
the Bryan dollar would be worth
100 cents and that freo silver
would bring prosperity, but ho
failed to show how" and that "the
audience was made up of a large
number who take no stock what
ever in tho lGto 1 heresy." Bro.
Paradis if you had "stnid it out"
you would have been "shown
how" and judging from the
amount of laughter and clapping
of hands when you left the hall,
tho audience was composed en
tirely of those who believe in
tho "16 to 1 heresy."
L. B. Fenner received a letter
this week from Rev. J. M. Crocker,
his uuc le, who is Chaplain of the
Anamosa Iowa Penitentiary. Mr.
Fenner never thought of Mr.
Crocker voting any other than tho
republican ticket (and it is unus
ual for a republican state official to
to do so) but tho following extract
from his letter shows whore he
stands:
"The discussiou of tho plat
form has established the fact
by the testimony of its cnemica
that tho monetary plank in that
platform is a declaration favorable
to tho fanner. But the ballot box
iB tho arsenal from which ovcry
sentiment must be "armed" to be
affective, and it remains to bo de
cided whether tho farmers will not
help to cruciiiy themselves at tho
polls. My hope and prayer is
that tho Lord of host will preside
over the destiny of this nation in
tho coming election: and that the
Abraham Lincoln of the white
race may bo our next president.
If William J. Bryan is in the
chair of the executive of this na
tion it will be official notice to the
wide world that the republic has not
abdicated in favor of a Plutocracy
and that THE GOVERNMENT
AT WASHINGTON LIVES
Estrnyed.

Three Opinions:
"The CHICAGO RECORD is a model
newspaper in every sense of the word,"
Harrlsburg (Pa.) Call.
"There is no paper published in America
that so nearly approaches the true-journalistic
Ideal as The CHICAGO RECORD."
From "Newspaperdom" New York).
"I have come to the firm conclusion, after
a long test and after a wide comparison
with the journals of many cities and coun
tries, that The CHICAGO RECORD comes
as near being the ideal daily journal as we
are for some time likely to find on these
mortal shores." Prof. J. T. Hatfield in
the Evanston III.) Index.
