FRIDAY, AUG. 24, 1900.
It is not believed that Mr. Bryan
will attempt to explain any of his
miscarried predictions. He will
6imply go right ahead making new
ones.

Li Hung Chang’s plan to s top the
trouble by beheading the leaders of
the Boxers and sending home their
followers is simple, businesslike and
oriental.
Those who vote for Bryan vote to
abandon a condition more prosper
ous than ever before enjoyed by any
nation, for the purpose of trying a
financial experiment condemned by
all nations.
Of the several nominees for the
presidency, Mr. Bryan is far the
wealthiest, and he has made all of
his money during the prosperous
times brought about by the McKinley
administration.
Jerry Simpson predicts that the
nomination of Mr. Stevenson will
give Kansas to the republicans. It
looks as if Adlai was nominated in
order to have a good-natured person
upon whom to blame the unpleasant
happenings.
The Sultan of Turkey, who claims
to be unable to pay an acknowledged
debt of $100,000, has ordered six
modern cruisers in Germany. Some
day there will be a knocking at the
gates of Constantinople like that now
heard at Pekin.
Philosophers say the opening of
each new century, or the close of
one, marks an epoch of disturbance,
governmental changes, panics, wars,
riots and other troubles. This may
or may not be true. Still, there is a
stange parallel between the period
of 1800 and that of 1900. Between

Napoleon was the central figure of
