Bryan is. It ib the third time, and he
is more popular than ever.
The President certainly produces a

order against official partizanship, and
then, with his cabinet rushes up

In Lane County as Seen by the
Rooster.
Thinking the readers of the Demo
crrt may wish to know how the pol
it leal pulse is beating in Lane, here are
a few:
If you hud seen the crowd that gath
ered to hear Hobsin vou would have
put Lane county down in the democratic
column, mere are more Missiourians
in Lane county than Fulton men in
Oregon. The court house was pacxed
to the doors. If Fulton will make a
few more speeches the old elephant
will quit in Oregon.
I failed to hear Hobson, couldn't get
in, so 1 left, and in about an hour went
back, and still could not get inside the
room. '
There are six Brvan clubs in Eugene
ana an nave a large memDersnip.
Have heard of onlyone G. O. P. club,
and there actually seems to be no sign
of a Taft demonstration. Bryan will
at least bend the elephant'd back in
Lane county.
