William H. 1 aft, of Ohio, is President-elect of the United States by a superb majority; and the country pauses to ask if it has heard the last of Bryan as a Democratic candidate?, The query is put more from sheer weariness than any other motive, and this is quite ample and wholly justi fiable; but the sooner an answer is given, especially in the affirmative, the better for all hands, Mr. Bryan included. The "great Commoner" has been "trun down" three times, emphatical ly and cheerfully, but there is no sort of assurance that he will stay down so long as there is a big enough group of Democrats to hold him up . in public and partisan view, : his talking machine" works ". smoothly and his personal vanity does not balk at a fourth freeze-out. He is an infinitely weaker man to ady, than ever he was after any of his previous defeats; he is absolutely without a rallying cry, his best theo ries are repudiated, and he is prac tically divested of what commanding influence he ever possessed; the re cent campaign has , proven conclu sively that he" was not the real and rational choice of his party; that had there been a man of parts at hand in the nominating days of the en gagement with whom the big minor-; ity of the national Democracy might have rallied the Bryanites away from their broken idol, he would never have been heard of in 1908, save aa a campaigner for the man who had succeeded him in the affections of his people. We hope the country is through with him as a perennial presidential impossibility. The Democracy must have something newer, fresher, more interesting that Mr. Bryan; even the lecture-field is, or will soon be, out worn with him; and there are some sues a man must take, and act on, if he will not become detestable alto gether. ; IMPROVEMENT.

' cepted theory that they are always good, and among these views we may quote the following: Regarding an improvement . as a mere vehicle for giving work, skilled and unskilled, to a certain percentage of our people, irrespective of the nature of the plans, specifications, engineering, bidding, bidders, costs, and manner of execution: And regarding the same public venture as a genuine business proposition applicable to a host of people whose concern therein pre cedes that of even the workingman, the contracting-trust, and the Boss!. WANTED: TRUST-BUSTERS I. Astoria is waking fast to the reali zation that she is in the hands of a group of local trusts that are .sweat ing her to a condition of semi-paralysis; that her people need nothing so badly as a strong-handed, honest hearted set of trust-busters in the commercial and political walks of life and action hereabout As a rule Astorians are the most patient peo ple in the country, and their com placency has led them into a state of unresisting lassitude that has made for them easy conquest the, exploit ers now in the mercantile "and civic saddles. There is a notable and novel spirit abroad just now that will make itself felt within the next 40 days to the disconfiture of some of the rank er of these agencies; and it will be high time!.
