At hla birthday celebration, William Jen Mnica Tiryan again pledged bla f-elty to I'real Jent Wflaon, and predicted bla renomlnatlo,. at tbe coming Ht. Ixmla convention, Tbla la c,iifte a matter of form, and not at all un ff ted, but bow do Mr, Hryen'e action aquar with hi profeaalona of loyal aupport for tb f-ealdent? Only a few daya ago, when Mr, V'llnon wa aaklng of congreea a vote of confi one, Mr, l!ryn waa buny with bla follower at Varhington, riving lo prevent any en ora'ment of Ihe announced foreign policy of 1 he adfolnUtraflofi, At Lincoln b followed bla announcement of loyalty with an attack on the prealdent'a plan for making preparation for the di'fena of the nation Home, month ago, at one i,f Ihe yraveat toomenta In recent blutory, Ilr, flryan retired from tbe reeponnlMa poaltlon of aecretary of atate, becauae be did n"t agree with tbe president on a j'icatlon of pumtnotiot Importance, Openly profeexlog loyalty in hi party bead, and bla quondaro pemonal chief, fee great commoner baa, by every trick tbe boa of the adroit politician, oppoaed the entire program of the adoilnlatration. Jiy hi pubfle ntfcrancea be baa preaerved bla "regulnrlly," hut be ha rerved hi right to knock and hamper everything the prealdent doe, and ha taerclaed the right at all flrnea ffla preaeof jl4ge to Wllaon lavea Mnwerd fb ijuaa tion, Wht la a democrat? lUtw to End the ail Feedinr Graft. The Ue baa been fighting the Jail feeding graft for many jtrn and, at one time, aeemed to bare auceeded In atopplng thl abue. Through The liee'e effort a, a lair waa en'td by the Jeglalatire providing for f4lng coanly jail priaoner by contract upon the at roe plan that the prleonur In the city jail are fed, and thl ayatem waa Inaugurated and continued throughout the two terme of Sheriff Mralley with iot aatlafactory reulfa not. only In the haodnome aavlng effected fi,r the tun payer, but alao In (be character of tbe food fornlnbei to the jail Inmatea, With tbe advent of the preaent demo cratic aherlff, the poaaltlllflea of reviving the Jail feeding graft proved too tempting and, with lb aid of ahrewd lawyer, be aecured a court declalon nullifying the contrt fnedlng law. Not content with that, the aberlff and bla con tingent fee partner, turned lobby)! and manip ulated the leglalature Into making feeding al' lowanee of 22 cent a day per prlaoner, of which two 'third I profit which be pocketa In addi tion to the K.OOO a-yeir aalary and mtleago attached to the office, Thl Jail feeding graft abould be atopped by Ibe nuif leglalature, but It will never b atOpped If the preaent aberlff remaina la office and it able lo block It, If tbe contract ayatern la lmpolhla, a tbe court fndhate, then me law ibould be made ao tbat tbe aherlff moat act a agent for tbe tonnty In auppllng food for the Jail, with tbe county footing tbe bill juat aa It doe, for earnple, for the detention borne and the poor farm, Aa candidate for the republican nomination for aherlff, Michael Clark ba glvtn a aurance that, If tiered, be will be aatlafied with the legal aalary and that be will not put anything In the way of tbe enactment of a pro per meaur for feeding of the pr!oner at coat to the county. There will be no trouble with (he lawmaker unleaa the man wbo rnakea the profit get buy to perpetuate hi rak-off, A vote for Clark will, therefore, be a vote to end tbe Jail feeding graft. Struggle of Olanti. Two million or more automobile oweere and other tbouaand of gasoline consumer are dili gently aearchlng for a gua to wing the flying price 0' oil. Vocal proteata and kicking tbe pump i-roduce no reponalve echo at tbe eign board. With the aerene confidence of cinch the elevating flgurea look the consumer In tho rye and calmly intimate that haate 1 nereaaary to escape tbe neit Jump. In all case of current price boosting tbe re aponalhlltty I placed on war, It la Ibe evil genlue of aacendlng te product, of lumber, dye, drug, dry good and eatahlofi, Every producer with thing to sell eoe tbe war aa a stimulator of prices, passes the uplift down the line, each handler adding hi hit before It reachea the con aumer. The oil Interesta are quite aa patriotic a the other fellowa, thulr reach 1 lo good work ing condition, and melon are their quarterly favorites. Maslera of the art of scooping tbe coin could not sit Idly and let all the coin roll by. It la doubtful If they will "hog the trough" much longer. I'nllke other price lifting mag nates, the oil barona are op against the whole automobile Induatry and automobile user, an argreaalve and reeourceful multitude, forced In nf defense Into a united body. No means of relief, from a cnngresalonal searching eiperiillon to possible substitutes, will be left untried, Im perilling a vast buslnesa by boosting the cost of power to prohibitive figure may yet prove the mesne of undoing the oil monopoly, A noted doctor diagnoses the rmintiv a ihtef aliment as a lack 'f flret ilss fathers Other bit noted this national weak nans before, but failed to tU It out loud.
