The country is dry; but thore are

These recent elections have certain
ly given a jar to the majority party.

When t?:e meek do inherit the!
oarth they will got a great deal of
pleasure and profit out of their poses
sion, because they wont be so selfish
with it a? the present owners.
.Maybe the reason that the dry
leaders don't want a wet tor vioe
, president is the furling fear that a
president mi< iit ?TT. and jve would
have a vice president.
Since it has been asserted that a

our faith in jnnTa Claus hus been

I>r. Hans Luther asserts that Ger

Til other words, the court says te
Mr. Wambolt, sez it ; "put up or shut

of the Y. M. C. A. and its activities

reprimand the former srt'drers for
their attitude toward tne V, and
quoted statistics to prove that the

gentlemen lust week and found that
many of them believe that the de

France and. the United States is one
of the underlying causes of the pres
ent economic disturbance.
One thing ia certain. Tremendous
efforts will be made in the next few
months to i est one bimotalism. Yon
will hear silver discussed in Congress
and yon 'will see more about it in
the newspapers. I could not help
thinking of the old days of Bryan
and "sixteen to one" when I heard
these international financiers discuss

discussed >n the 1890's.
